Dragon King Hall's Legend Chapter 282 - 282 Good News and Bad News

Half an hour later.

Gu Xiyan complained, "Aiyah, you never take precautions, and you won't let take any dicine, what if I end up with a baby?!" Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel[f]ire

Although her tone was complaining, Gu Xiyan was actually quite looking forward to it; if she really got 'in trouble' because of Mu Jinyu, how could those fox spirits compete with her!

Mu Jinyu said in a calm tone, "Don't worry, nothing will happen; after all, I am just a child myself, how could I dare to cause such trouble!"

"Huh?!"

Upon hearing his words, Gu Xiyan imdiately looked at Mu Jinyu with a terrified gaze, filled with deep worry.

"What's that look for?" Mu Jinyu, seeing the expression in Gu Xiyan's eyes, got annoyed and said grumpily, "I'm not sick. I just pressed the acupressure points, blocking the essence channels; I have taken precautions, you really need a lesson, woman!"

Gu Xiyan imdiately felt relieved, after all, she did not really want to get 'in trouble' with Mu Jinyu at the mont, but that didn't an she wouldn't want to in the future.

Afterward, recalling Mu Jinyu's last words, Gu Xiyan looked at him with a provocative gaze and said, "Then co teach a lesson! Let's see who ends up teaching whom!"

...

The night passed without words.

The next day.

Mu Jinyu groggily got up to find that Gu Xiyan was already gone, leaving behind only a lingering scent.

He checked the ti on his phone – it was after nine. It seed Gu Xiyan and Wen Rou had already gone to work.

Rubbing his sore lower back, Mu Jinyu murmured, "It seems I can't be too lazy. Even if I'm not very fond of cultivation, I should still exercise more!"

After freshening up in the washroom, Mu Jinyu started eating the breakfast the two won had left for him.

After breakfast, he washed the dishes and then went out to et Xiang Mantang, joining him for so exercise.

Alone, one tends to get lazy easily.

Arriving at Donghui Mansion, when Mu Jinyu got to Villa Number Three, he was inford that Xiang Mantang had left River City the day before to return to Capital City, seemingly to report sothing to the Old Dragon King.

"Everyone is quite busy."

Mu Jinyu felt bored, said goodbye to the butler, and went to a nearby park to exercise.

By noon, Mu Jinyu was planning to find a nearby restaurant to settle the grumbling in his stomach.

But then he thought of sothing, hailed a taxi on the road, and went back ho.

Returning to the floor of his apartnt, he looked at the empty corridor. After a slight pause, Mu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, but he also felt a hint of loss.

Shaking his head slightly, Mu Jinyu didn't dwell on it, opened the door, entered the house, prepared lunch for himself, ate simply, felt bored, went to the company first, and then to the underground gambling den to scare Yu Xiuwen.

The day passed just like that.

In the following days, what puzzled Mu Jinyu was that Xiang Mantang didn't return from Capital City, and that woman, Su Zijin, didn't co to bother him again.

It seed she had also gone back to Capital City.

Mu Jinyu guessed that perhaps the Old Dragon King was truly in a dire state.

Mu Jinyu felt conflicted, not knowing whether the Old Dragon King was nearing his natural end or was lingering due to a grievous injury?

For the forr, he could not defy fate and bring him back, but for the latter, he might be able to help.

However...

Mu Jinyu thought that if it were the latter case, Xiang Mantang, not knowing about his complicated relationship with the Old Dragon King, probably would have been pleased to see the Old Dragon King pass away, giving himself a chance to contend for the position of the Tiance True Dragon; but now, knowing those things, he likely wouldn't do so.

Therefore, he didn't offer to go to Capital City to treat the Old Dragon King.

So, was the Old Dragon King really facing his final monts?

Mu Jinyu felt sowhat lost and lancholic.

Mu Jinyu was not entirely at ease, and in the end, he made another call to Xiang Mantang, beating around the bush and subtly inquiring about the situation there.

Xiang Mantang straightforwardly inford him that the Old Dragon King was still in good condition and wouldn't breathe his last any ti soon. His return to Capital City wasn't for this matter. Su Zijin felt the sa. If the Old Dragon King truly reached his last monts, he would notify him and ask whether he wanted to co and see the latter one last ti.

Mu Jinyu rebutted Xiang Mantang once, then hung up the phone, but he also felt a sense of relief in his heart.

Afterward, Mu Jinyu humd a tune and went ho for lunch.

After lunch, with nothing else to do, Mu Jinyu strolled over to the underground gambling den to check on Yu Xiuwen, who had been well-fed for several days.

In the past few days, Yu Xiuwen had indeed eaten very well. Having no money and a love for gambling, he previously lacked essence, Qi, and spirit, withering away to skin and bones.

After spending a few days under Mu Jinyu's care, he had gained a significant amount of weight.

However, although he felt much better physically, Yu Xiuwen was never happy, one could even say he was constantly anxious.

After all, he believed that Mu Jinyu had already harvested one of his kidneys and that his remaining kidney, as well as his heart, cornea, and so forth, could be taken from him at any ti.

Despite eating and drinking well under these circumstances, he was perpetually in a bad mood!

With an air of nonchalance, Mu Jinyu made his way to Yu Xiuwen's room. Upon hearing of his arrival, Yu Linglong opened the door to her own room, looking at Mu Jinyu with eyes full of joy.

But to stay in character for Mu Jinyu, she forcefully suppressed her laughter, adopting a worried expression before entering Yu Xiuwen's room.

"Old man, you've been doing quite well lately, fattening up quite a bit. I've got two pieces of news, one good, one bad. Which do you want to hear first?"

Walking into the room and seeing Yu Xiuwen still lying in bed, with a look of utter despair as he gazed at the ceiling, Mu Jinyu lifted his foot and kicked him lightly.

Startled into alertness, Yu Xiuwen saw Mu Jinyu approaching, first displaying an expression as if on the verge of tears, before promptly forcing a smile of fawning flattery on his aged face and said, "Master Mu, you, you're here."

Yu Xiuwen felt truly stifled. To be downtrodden like his father-in-law, bullied by a son-in-law, worried about body parts being coveted, and still having to call soone else 'Master'!

Seeing that Yu Xiuwen hadn't heard him, Mu Jinyu frowned slightly and then repeated his question.

Yu Xiuwen replied, "The bad news. Better to endure the bitter before the sweet!"

He thought to himself, how much worse could it get? At worst, he would be dead today.

Mu Jinyu said, "Well, the bad news is, that rich man found a more suitable, younger heart; he thinks yours is too old and doesn't want it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiuwen was initially stunned, but then he was overjoyed, barely able to restrain himself from jumping up and exclaiming his good fortune.

How can this be considered bad news?

Isn't this fantastic news?

The thing he had been dreading these past few days, he didn't need to worry about it anymore.

His old life was saved once again.

Mu Jinyu watched Yu Xiuwen's face lit up with uncontrollable delight, grinned, revealing a row of neat teeth, his smile appearing utterly harmless.

"The good news? Soone else is interested in your heart."

At that mont,

"Ah?"

The previously ecstatic Yu Xiuwen suddenly beca stone-still, as if a cold breeze had just whizzed past his feet.

Is... is this the good news?

So, the good news and the bad news were from your perspective!
