The hall of the Zeng Family’s villa was bustling and crowded.
Many present were notable figures from Jinling City; to ordinary people, they all had distinguished statuses.
Their visit this ti was considered an expression of good manners and an attempt to connect with the Zeng Family, as they ca to see the ailing Zeng Yui.
Lin Tian and Zeng Zhipei sat quietly on the side, hardly noticeable.
As Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin, two young won, entered, they naturally did not notice the presence of Lin Tian.
They walked straight up to the woman in the white veil.
"Sister, how long have you been here!"
Bi Zhenyu ran forward, happily grabbing the veiled woman’s hand.
"Hello, Sister Zhen Yun!"
Yin Liuyin, who ca with Bi Zhenyu, approached and greeted the veiled woman, her movents slightly uneasy.
The appearance of the two young won surprised Zeng Qifa and the others.
After all, they were not familiar with them, and the sudden appearance of unfamiliar visitors was naturally astonishing.
At this mont.
Seeing the two young won’s familiarity with the veiled woman left everyone astonished.
"Ladies, please have a seat!"
Wan Xinya quickly stepped forward to greet them after the initial surprise, inviting Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin to sit down.
The woman in the veil, regardless of her background or identity, was extrely exceptional.
Even in the entire Jinling City, any power or family would have to treat her with absolute high regard and the best etiquette.
Had Zeng Yui not been in an outbreak of illness, their hospitality wouldn’t have been so rushed.
And since Bi Zhenyu and her companions were acquainted with the veiled woman, they must also be of significant background.
With her years of experience, Wan Xinya was well-versed in the art of networking.
Regardless of the potential friendship, she would never offend them!
"You must be that good friend of Zhenyu’s, Xiao Yin!"
Bi Zhenyun gently nodded to Yin Liuyin and softly said, "Zhenyu ntioned that you were going to co find , and you really did!"
"Sister, we haven’t seen you in two years, and I’m in my second year now. I miss you so much!"
Bi Zhenyu wrapped an arm around Bi Zhenyun’s, pouting playfully. "You’ve been away for so long, Mom and Dad often talk about you! Now that it’s the sumr break and you’re out, we just had to co see you. No joke~!"
"Are Mom and Dad doing well?"
Bi Zhenyun gently rubbed Bi Zhenyu’s head with a smile.
"They’re doing well!"
Bi Zhenyu nodded earnestly. "Sister, when are you coming back to Yanjing?"
"Maybe in a few months!"
Bi Zhenyun nodded in response. "My master might be heading north soon; I could go ho then!"
"Wow... Sister, you’re so skilled in the dical arts, your master must be as powerful as an immortal!"
Bi Zhenyu exclaid excitedly.
"Yes!"
Bi Zhenyun replied softly, continuing, "My master is one of the greatest dical experts in all of Huaxia! Apart from the legendary lands in the mainland, no one can compare to him!"
"Oh my gosh, Sister, you’ll beco such an expert too!"
Bi Zhenyu’s eyes sparkled with excitent. "We actually ca to ask you for sothing this ti!"
At this, a slight blush appeared on Bi Zhenyu’s charming face.
Yin Liuyin, beside her, also blushed, lowering her head.
Bi Zhenyun blinked her beautiful eyes, a smile forming as she seed to grasp the aning of their reaction.
But.
In front of so many people, she didn’t speak, just nodded gently. After a glance at the two, she slightly frowned and asked, "But you look a bit disheveled; what happened on the way?"
Upon hearing this, Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin’s faces changed.
Thinking about what happened earlier at the peak by the pond in the Qingzhou Mountain Range, they felt both ashad and angry.
"Sister, nothing happened, nothing at all!"
Bi Zhenyu took a deep breath secretly, waving her hands at her sister Bi Zhenyun, saying, "We heard Qingzhou Mountain is rich with famous herbs, so we ventured in together, hoping to gather so precious materials as gifts for you! You know we are from the dical College, well-versed in herbs!"
"What! You entered the Qingzhou Mountain Range alone?"
Bi Zhenyun was shocked, scolding directly, "That’s reckless! Do you know how dangerous it is in there?"
"Ah... Sister, are there many beasts inside?"
Bi Zhenyu asked confusedly, her eyes wide open.
"Hmph, you are not allowed to enter again!"
Bi Zhenyun didn’t explain further, just sternly instructed.
Beasts?
While there were indeed beasts inside, they wouldn’t usually co out.
What worried her most was the Demon Sect of the East Continent Cultivation Realm!
Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin were ordinary girls from the mundane world. If they encountered those malevolent disciples of the Demon Sect, the consequences would be dire.
Seeing her sister Bi Zhenyun angry, Bi Zhenyu quickly quieted down, not daring to speak.
Yin Liuyin also kept her head down, silent.
"Alright, rember this for next ti, you can’t go in again!"
Bi Zhenyun saw the two girls quiet down, her expression softening, and sighed softly, "Let treat this illness first, and we’ll talk further!"
At this, Bi Zhenyun looked up at Zeng Qifa, hesitated slightly, then said, "Based on your description, I have only seventy percent confidence in curing your daughter. If I fail, she might die. Of course, I need to see her personally to make the final decision. Are you still willing to let intervene?"
Hearing this, Zeng Qifa and others in the Zeng Family hesitated.
Death was like a heavy hamr falling on the hearts of Zeng Qifa and Wan Xinya.
Human emotions are made of flesh; even if Zeng Qifa and Wan Xinya had issues with Zeng Zhipei, the thought of their daughter being in pain struck a nerve.
"Qifa, it’s up to you to decide!"
Wan Xinya, eyes reddening, looked at Zeng Qifa.
"Ah..."
Zeng Qifa sighed lightly, and finally looked at Bi Zhenyun, saying, "Immortal Bi, my youngest daughter has suffered too much. Now, prolonged pain is worse than short-term pain. Seventy percent confidence — if her fortune lands her in the remaining thirty, then that’s fate!"
"Ah... Seventy percent is quite high already!"
Bi Zhenyu exclaid in surprise, saying, "But sister, can’t you ask your master? He must be a hundred percent confident!"
"My master has more important matters to attend to!"
Bi Zhenyun shook her head, saying, "If he could co, there’d be no problem! You know, he is known as the Sword Mountain Saint in the East Continent!"
...
"Mr. Lin, if she cures my sister, what about the remnants? Should we just take them?"
On the side, Zeng Zhipei also heard the conversation among Bi Zhenyun and others, he wiped his cold sweat, sowhat worried.
After all, if Lin Tian used force in the end, the Old Man’s stubbornness might an he wouldn’t be willing to hand over the items.
At that ti, if Lin Tian got angry, he might be implicated, and his life could be at risk.
"She won’t be able to cure it! Even if she brings her so-called master, it won’t work! With the level they have, they can’t handle it!"
Lin Tian slightly shook his head, speaking with certainty.
He didn’t speak quietly, and many in the hall heard him, not to ntion Bi Zhenyun, who was a Cultivator, heard it clearly.
The crowd instantly turned to look.
"It’s you!"
Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin saw clearly that it was Lin Tian, their eyes widened in surprise.
The next mont, Bi Zhenyu reacted, stood up, pointed at Lin Tian angrily, and shouted, "You scoundrel, fancy eting you again! Don’t think about leaving! Also, did you just say my sister and her master aren’t skilled?"
"I’m speaking the truth!"
Lin Tian glanced at Bi Zhenyu, a bit helpless, and recalling the previous incident, he felt sowhat embarrassed but didn’t care since he did nothing wrong.
"This friend, do you know who my master is?"
Bi Zhenyun then turned to look, assessing Lin Tian, and finally said, "My master is nad Guu Liangsheng, known as the Sword Mountain Saint in the East Continent. Does that not impress you?"
"Saint? Haha, not just here, but even that War Song City’s Taoist level is average!"
Lin Tian chuckled lightly, speaking calmly, "These so-called saints on Earth, how could they impress ? If I say their level is insufficient, then it is!"
