He had essentially solved the crux of Ling Yu’s disease.

Therefore, not only was Ling Yu’s illness healed completely, but his body was also much healthier than before.

“It’s all thanks to you, Mr. Lu, that Xiao-yu finally recovered from his heart disease!” Ling Huang could hardly contain his excitement. “You might not know this, but this illness has tormented Xiao-yu for many years. I almost thought that he would stay like this for the rest of his life, but you’ve healed him, Mr. Lu!”

On his side, Ling Fei looked thrilled as well. Ling Yu’s illness was a joint ache weighing on their hearts.

Now, the weight had finally been lifted from their minds.

“In that case, I shall take my leave then!” Lu Xuan stood up and said.

“Yes, I’ll arrange for a chauffeur to send you home!” Ling Huang said without skipping a beat.

Ling Fei, who was standing at the side, seemed like she wanted to say something. However, she said nothing in the end.

After they sent Lu Xuan off, Ling Fei went to find Ling Huang.

“Dad, I would like to learn martial arts!” Ling Fei stated.

“You’re a lady. Why learn martial arts!” Ling Huang frowned.

Ling Fei tried to convince him, “Dad, as you can see, the world is different from the past. You have also seen just how much benefit a powerful cultivator can bring!

“My brother will inherit the Ling Group in the future. By learning martial arts, I can better protect our assets. Both Mr. Lu or Brother Lin mentioned that what lies ahead is a glorious era for cultivators. If no one in the Ling family cultivates, aren’t we just waiting to be trampled on?” Ling Fei pressed further in her pitch.

Ling Huang looked long and hard at Ling Fei before letting out a sigh. He could, of course, see his daughter’s intentions and the real reason why she suddenly wanted to practice martial arts.

However, matters of the heart were not something he could interfere with. If the other party had been a regular guy or even a poor youth, it would actually be much easier.

He, Ling Huang, only managed to accumulate such wealth after striving for decades in the business world. Need he even rely on setting up his daughter for a political marriage to bring in even more money?

What’s the use of earning so much money? To bring it into his coffin?

Therefore, from his point of view, money was never a hindrance. It was okay even if the other party was not that outstanding. So long as his daughter liked him, that would be enough.

On the contrary, it was that the other party was too outstanding. Even he would need to treat that person as their most esteemed guest. Using the words of Lin Sheng, such powerhouses would be gods in the Inner Palace, and one could already imagine how respectful regular people would be of him.

To such a man, money and power would be delivered to him on a silver platter if that was what he truly wanted. To such persons, their wealth would be utterly meaningless.

It is like a tiger trying to eat a porcupine with no avail. There was simply nothing that could be done.

However, putting himself in his daughter’s shoes, he understood that his daughter was now a grown woman. She had always been picky about people and had always ignored most ordinary folk. It was rare that she actually set her eyes on someone, and so, he was hesitant to stop her.

“Since you’re keen to learn, you should learn from the best. There is one place I can send you to train in cultivation!” Ling Huang bit his inner cheeks and gave his consent. He thought of that place. He had gone through a lot to cut himself clean from that place, but for the sake of his daughter, he must now return.

“That’s great!” Ling Fei was elated, and her long ponytail swayed behind her in the same cheer.

Xing Chen Bay Residence. Even though Lu Xuan had not returned for days, the place was as clean as ever.

With the spiritual formation laid by Lu Xuan in place, dust couldn’t gather and settle.

However, before Lu Xuan could settle down, a phone call broke the peaceful quiet.

“Hello? Son? Where are you!” The phone relayed the voice of his Mother Empress, Liu Wanrong, from the other side of the line.

“I’m at home!” Lu Xuan replied.

“Good! You being home is good!” Liu Wanrong quickly said.

Lu Xuan frowned at once as his chest tightened. For some reason, he felt that his mother’s words were loaded.

“There’s the thing. Do you remember your Dad’s colleague, Uncle Lu? He has a daughter now on her graduation trip. She’s coming to Fu City; wouldn’t it be too dangerous for a young foreign Missy like her to roam the streets? And so your Dad and I were thinking, why don’t you should be her guide for a few days and show her around?” Liu Wanrong smiled.

Lu Xuan almost vomited blood. Did his Mom take him as a fool?

She was going all out to force him into blind dates, huh? She outdid herself this time with such a refreshing excuse.

“Mom, just how worried are you about me not getting a wife?” Lu Xuan couldn’t resist the urge to ask.

“Listen to yourself! I’m just creating chances for you! I brought you up with blood, tears, and sweat, and now that you’re all grown up, you’re finding me annoying, aren’t you!” Liu Wanrong wailed over the phone.

“Okay, okay, okay!” Lu Xuan’s head was throbbing now. “I’ll go, alright?”

“That’s more like it!” Liu Wanrong was pleased. “It’s all because of you youngsters nowadays who hate blind dates and prefer to seek out love based on your feelings! I’m basically creating more chances for you. Your Uncle Lu’s daughter is their campus beauty. She has tens of thousands of fans on Tik Tok, alright?”

“You sure are trendy, Mom!”

Lu Xuan gave up on refuting. Back then, he also used to be addicted to those short videos, but now, he could not even remember how many years had passed since then. He no longer felt anything towards that kind of stuff.

At Fu City’s Southern Train Station, two girls around 20 kept looking around as they waited at the main entrance.

The girl with a slightly rounder face got a little impatient.

“Ling’er, why isn’t the guy your father mentioned here yet? Is that man even reliable?”

The young girl pouted and seemed a little annoyed.

“He should be coming, I think!” The other girl looked to be at most 20 years old. Her makeup was exquisite, and her skin was snowy white. She dressed fashionably and carried a small backpack, brimming with youthfulness.

“Your dad couldn’t have been more obvious. This is a blind date, isn’t it? I wonder what his background was. Is he rich or handsome?” asked the slightly round-faced girl.

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t plan to go on a blind date with him, and so his looks and wealth are of no concern to me!” The young girl called Ling’er looked pretty laid back.

“You have a point! Well, I guess it’ll be alright if he knows to act appropriately. If he doesn’t, we’ll make him make a fool of himself in public, so that he will leave on his own!” the slightly round-faced girl added.

“But where are we going next? What about the San Square 7th Alley?”

“Let’s go there later. I heard that there’s a martial arts competition in Fu City today and that a lot of martial powerhouses will be attending. These are real martial experts, not those who could only do fancy but feeble moves!” Ling’er said

“I forgot about that interest of yours!” The slightly round-faced girl sighed in resignation as she rubbed her forehead. “I guess it’ll be alright. Who knows, we might even meet really cute boys!”

“I’m sorry for being late!”

Just as the two girls were getting engrossed in their discussion, a figure barged into their line of sight. Both of them looked up and saw a youth who looked to be around their age.
