Dragon Emperor, Martial God

It was within Ling Yun’s expectations for Li Yunxiang to regain his consciousness. A faint smile danced across his lips as he looked at Yao Rou’s expression that encompassed shock, surprise, and disbelief.

“Tell Ms. Liu to not let anyone touch him for now, I’ll head into the room in a while to remove the needles, he’ll be fine after that!”

“Okay!” Yao Rou replied enthusiastically. Like a gust of wind, she dashed back into the ward without a second thought and forgot to close the door in the process.

Ling Yun stared at Yao Rou’s slender legs that were peeking out beneath her nurse uniform as he thought to himself, This nurse’s slender legs are comparable to Little Demon Girl’s!

Ling Yun looked up at Tie Xiaohu and asked, “Do you have the 10 thousand yuan with you?”

Tie Xiaohu was still in a daze after receiving a scolding from Ling Yun and did not know what Ling Yun was up to. He nodded his head blankly and replied, “Yeah, I have it with me.”

Ling Yun took out the 30 thousand yuan that he had extorted from the Green Dragon Gang this morning before telling Tie Xiaohu, “Give me the 10 thousand yuan!”

Without hesitation, Tie Xiaohu took out the money and passed it to Ling Yun.

Sitting there, Ling Yun began to count the stack of bills repeatedly with a pained expression on his face. 20 minutes later, he got up and made a beeline for the ward.

Ling Yun first took a look at Li Yunxiang who was still lying on the bed before nodding his head lightly. Li Yunxiang had recovered, it was time for Ling Yun to remove the needles.

Seeing that Ling Yun had entered the room, Li Yunxiang’s mother could no longer be bothered with her son and knelt down to kowtow to Ling Yun without hesitation!

How could Ling Yun possibly let her kowtow to him? He quickly dashed towards Li Yunxiang’s mother and helped her up with one hand.

He immediately told her, “Auntie, this is part of my responsibility, it’s merely a small matter, you don’t have to do this!”

Ling Yun smiled as he helped Li Yunxiang’s mother into a chair before replying politely.

Tears were streaming down Li Yunxiang’s mother’s cheeks as she began to choke up. Words were simply not enough to express the amount of gratitude she was feeling!

How much anxiety and pain did she have to endure in the past month alone? Every day, all that she had hoped for was for her son to be able to wake up. However, after countless disappointments, she had finally given up all hope!

But right now, after the arrival of this extremely handsome teenage boy before her, her son was able to regain consciousness within a mere thirty minutes!

He was able to recognize her and Liu Li, clearly conscious of his surroundings, and was able to move his fingers!

How big of a favor could this possibly be?!

“Big brother. You, this, I…’ Liu Li is so shaken, she could barely maintain her emotions and composure, neither could she phrase her words in a proper manner.

Ling Yun flashed a smile. “Ms. Liu, you don’t have to say anything. It’s part of my responsibility! For the next 15 days, you don’t have to give Mr. Li any sort of medication. As long as you ensure that he receives proper nutrition and gets sufficient sleep, he will be back to normal, maybe even better!”

Ling Yun then gritted his teeth and tried his best to put on a calm expression before putting the 40 thousand yuan on Li Yunxiang’s bed. “Ms. Liu, I was in such a hurry to get here and didn’t have the opportunity to buy anything for the visit. Please accept this small amount of money in case there are any emergencies. If this isn’t enough… You can always give me a call!”

God knows how difficult it was for Ling Yun to utter that sentence! Fortunately, he did not embarrass himself in front of everyone and persevered through.

He did not have a choice. Whatever he was doing for the Li family was nothing compared to the magical brush given to him by Liu Li!

Even though Liu Li’s family was unaware of it, Ling Yun clearly knew that the magical brush was far more precious than whatever help he was offering to the Li family. If he did not try his best to help them out, he would have felt infinitely apologetic despite his shameless personality.

The magical brush was currently in his pocket!

Looking at the 40 thousand yuan that Ling Yun had left on the bed, even Yao Rou was dumbfounded, not to mention Li Yunxiang’s mother and Liu Li!

Yao Rou thought to herself, How is it possible that such a perfect and kind man exists in this world?!

As the saying goes, “to save a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda for the gods”. In this society, after Ling Yun saved Li Yunxiang’s life, it would have been a miracle if he did not ask for anything in return. Instead, he decided to give them money?! 40 thousand yuan?!

Yao Rou felt as if she was slowly losing her sanity. She realized that she must not let such a great guy slip through her hands!

Her bright and beautiful eyes were filled with adoration and passion as she did not even bother to conceal her admiration for him. Her eyes were glued to Ling Yun as if she was afraid that he would disappear into thin air.

Medical skills capable of bringing back the dead, a handsome face that was unrivaled by anyone in the world, not requesting for anything in return after saving a life and instead, going all out to help his patient by giving him money?!

Thinking about all the sanctimonious doctors working in the hospital who were dying to earn as much as possible by requesting payment after curing patients of a cold, Yao Rou could feel her heart pounding hard and fast as if it was going to leap out of her chest!

If only Ling Yun was lustful…

At the very least, Yao Rou was the campus belle of Jiangnan Medical School and was still a virgin. She had yet to give her first kiss away. She was certain that she could get Ling Yun to fall for her!

As these thoughts clouded her mind, Yao Rou subconsciously yanked her nurse uniform downwards and tried her best to stick her chest out at the same time. However, she realized that even though she was able to showcase her impressive rack, she would be shortchanging her long and slender legs. Therefore, she began to lift up her uniform and tried to show as much of her thighs as possible.

In the end, nurses will be nurses. Due to professional reasons, nurses were more than used to the human body, be it male or female. Furthermore, they were well-versed in the subject of human biology. Therefore, if they did choose to be more daring, some female artists or young models would not even be able to compare!

In a generation where most girls above the age of 16 had already lost their virginity, 21-year-old medical student, Yao Rou, was thankful for the very first time to have kept her chastity. Finally, she had found her ideal prince charming!

Li Yunxiang’s mother and Liu Li had finally snapped out of their daze. They stared at the money that Ling Yun had left on the bed in disbelief as they took a long time to process what had happened. Finally, Liu Li began to speak. Liu Li exclaimed, “Big brother, I can’t possibly accept this. You’ve saved me, the baby in my belly, and now you’ve saved Yunxiang’s life. The Li family will never be able to repay our gratitude. You already gave me some money previously, now you’re giving me so much more at one go, how can we possibly accept this?!”

As the words left her mouth, Liu Li picked up the 40 thousand yuan and stuffed it back into Ling Yun’s hands.

Ling Yun would not have given her the money if he was truly reluctant to do so. However, since he had already set his mind on giving them the money, why would he take it back?

He smiled as he waved his hand. He followed that up by saying, “Ms. Liu, this is just a small token of appreciation. I’ve known since the beginning that your family is currently in a tight spot, there’s really no need to reject the money. If you insist on returning the money, I’m never coming back to visit!”

Of course, Ling Yun was still going to come back, because he had the intention of asking how they managed to obtain the magical brush after Li Yunxiang had made a full recovery. He intended to go on an adventure after he had attained enough power to see if he could find any more treasures.

Now that Li Yunxiang had just regained consciousness, the most important thing was for him to get enough rest. He was definitely not in the position and situation to be asked these sorts of questions.

However, no matter how much Ling Yun tried to convince them, Liu Li and her mother-in-law still insisted on not taking the money. This sent Ling Yun into a state of helplessness as he thought to himself, For the first time, I put myself through so much pain by giving money away and I am actually unable to give it away?

Finally, Ling Yun put on a serious front before saying, “Ms. Liu, if you really do insist on not taking the money, you’re basically don’t see me as your brother. Tell me, if I can save Mr. Li’s life, what difference would the money make? Give it some thought, is Mr. Li’s life important or is the wee-bit money important?”

Liu Li was rendered speechless by Ling Yun’s questions. With the 40 thousand yuan in her hands, her eyes began to water as she spoke. Clearly touched, she said, “Big brother, I understand what you’re saying. However, I really can’t bear to accept the money!”

Ling Yun let out a chuckle and said? “Can’t bear to accept it, well then, have fun accepting it. You’ve got no choice, your big brother is just that mean, haha…”

Ling Yun was probably the only weirdo in the whole wide world who would joke around and call himself mean after doing such a good deed!

His smile and carefree actions almost made Yao Rou lose control and leap into his arms.

If she got the chance to be by his side and follow him to the end of the world, it would be completely worth it, even if she did not get to marry him!

After seeing that Liu Li had given up, Ling Yun finally turned around and addresses Li Yunxiang, who had been struggling all this while to get out of bed. “Mr. Li, there is no need to panic. You will be able to get back up on your feet after half a month, I’ll pay you another visit then!”

As those words left his mouth, Ling Yun gave Li Yunxiang a reassuring smile and bade Liu Li goodbye.

He came and went without leaving a trace, even leaving money behind after saving a life!

Seeing that Ling Yun was about to leave, Li Yunxiang’s mother tried her best to calm down and regain her composure before speaking to him. She said, “Child, the Li family is eternally grateful for your help and we will never be able to repay our gratitude. However, auntie will let you know, auntie is going to set up an altar at home and pray three times a day, praying for your family’s wellbeing and health!”

Ling Yun was amused by this old woman’s antics.

However, since this was the old woman’s sincere intention and way of repaying him, Ling Yun chose not to argue against it. He gave her a smile and told her there was no need to see him off before leaving the ward.

How could they not see him off? Liu Li rushed towards Ling Yun as he was leaving the room, whereas Yao Rou naturally chased after them.

“Big brother, you, you’re still coming, right?” Liu Li did not dare to make direct eye contact and looked at the ground as she uttered those words.

Ling Yun flashed a smile as he replied, “Ms. Liu, don’t worry, I’ll be back in at most half a month, I’ll definitely come back. If anything arises during this period of time, you can always give me a call.”

Liu Li nodded her head in agreement and said, “Actually, there’s nothing much to it. All I was hoping for was to invite you to dinner at my place after Yunxiang makes a full recovery…”

Ling Yun laughed, “Alright then, how can I possibly say no to that? Okay, you can head back to the ward and take care of Mr. Li, I’m leaving!”

He then waved at Tie Xiaohu and turned around elegantly to leave.

“Wait up!” Yao Rou began to panic at the sight of Ling Yun leaving and spun around to face him.

Ling Yun was confused by her actions and started scratching his head. “I’ve already saved his life, is there something else?” Ling Yun asked.

Yao Rou’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Ling Yun as she began to blush and her chest rose and fell rapidly. “You can leave, but you have to give me your phone number!” She said shyly.

This was actually completely out of Yao Rou’s character. Even she herself found her actions overly daring and overbearing!

But, she had no other choice. She was definitely not letting go of such a great opportunity, neither was she letting go of such a great man. Who cared if Ling Yun misunderstood her intentions? Nothing else mattered, she would do anything just to get his phone number!

However, what Yao Rou did not expect was for Ling Yun to give out his phone number to her without hesitation.

Not only was his phone number cool, it was also very easy to memorize.

“Wait!” Right now, Yao Rou did not have the time to think about how cool Ling Yun’s phone number was as he recited it to her. She quickly whipped her phone out and keyed in his number before giving it a ring.

She had to confirm if it was really his number. What if he was lying to her, how was she going to contact him then?

If she never got to see Ling Yun again, Yao Rou was 101% sure that she would regret it for the rest of her life!

Ling Yun’s phone began to ring and he took it out of his pocket before showing it to Yao Rou. He chuckled, “Is this your number? Feeling relieved yet?”

Yao Rou inspected the number that was displayed on Ling Yun’s phone closely and made sure that Ling Yun was not lying to her before her lips curved into a sweet smile. With her doll-like eyes glued to Ling Yun, she spoke to him in a voice gentle enough to melt through steel or stone, “Can I give you a call?”

Ling Yun thought to himself, “Why would I give you my phone number if I don’t want you to call me?” He gave her a faint smile as he nodded his head, his eyes casually glancing across Yao Rou’s perky breasts.

Ling Yun intentionally patted Yao Rou on her back and teased her naughtily, “Can I leave now?”

Yao Rou could not help but ask him another question. “When can I give you a call?” She curiously inquired.

Ling Yun figured that he had probably teased her enough and chuckled, “Anytime! Alright, pretty girl, I’m leaving! Remember, you have to wear this outfit when you look for me!”

Ling Yun then left immediately with Tie Xiaohu and walked towards the elevator.

Naturally, Yao Rou sent Ling Yun off reluctantly with her eyes glued to him right up till the elevator door closed as if she was still able to see his mesmerizing smile right before her eyes.

After one full minute, Yao Rou finally spun around happily and skipped towards the nurses’ station!

I’ve hit the jackpot! This was the voice that was screaming aloud from the bottom of her heart!

Ling Yun and Tie Xiaohu left City Ninth People’s Hospital and got on yet another cab. However, they were not heading back to school. Instead, Ling Yun was bringing Tie Xiaohu back to his rented house.

It was already 3:30 in the afternoon by the time the both of them got to Ling Yun’s place.

Ling Yun plopped down on his couch upon entering the living room before flashing a mysterious smile at Tie Xiaohu.

“Do you want to be as good as me?” Ling Yun asked.
