You’re From House Sun?
“It’s because of your sights. You still look at things from a businessman’s perspective, not an entrepreneur’s!” Zhenhu said. “Businessmen look at profits. They look at the returns when they give something away, otherwise, it would be a loss, a failed trade. You don’t make trades where you’re the one in a loss, and so our business was always profiting and we’ve never lost anything, that’s your ability!”
Tianli listened with his head lowered, receiving the lecture.
“Entrepreneurs, however, put their sights farther down the line—they don’t think about the now, they don’t think about the future!” Zhehu said. “Jing Jing, why don’t you say your thoughts on this matter?”
“Yes, grandpa.” Liu Jinghan said. “Lin Yi gave us House Liu the money back, as well as a piece of benefit. This means that Lin Yi does not really treat us as friends, and considers this as thanks to finish his debt with House Liu. We’ve gotten our returns now, but this isn’t something to be happy about.”
“Hear that? Tianli, this is the difference between your vision and Jing Jing’s vision. The business can be doubled and doubled in her hands, but in yours, it’s only a stable status quo.” Zhenhu waved his hand. “But fine—it’d be too easy for just one act to gain us Lin Yi’s friendship. We’ll have our chances in the future… He heard that in the next noble house meeting, the rankings might be altered. It seems that House Xiao was about to lose their title as a noble house…”
“Right, but who would it be, after House Xiao? Looking at the strength of the other noble houses, us House Liu is the weakest.” Tianyi said. “Our spot may still be guaranteed now, but who knows about the future?”
Lin Yi, of course, had no time to consider the troubles the Liu’s were thinking of. He was currently entering Uncle Fu’s room with Pengzhan.
Uncle Fu lay in bed quietly, not moving. His body was riddled with silver needles that Lin Yi put in him before.
He took a quick look at Uncle Fu’s condition, breathing out in relief when he realized that he’d been kept stable.
“What do you think, Yi? Can you heal him?” Pengzhan asked, worried.
“Yes!” Lin Yi nodded. “Let Yao Yao and Shu guard the living room, and alert me the instant an enemy appears!”
“Alright!” Pengzhan didn’t dare drag his steps—he quickly walked out to give the girls the command. He understood that Lin Yi was about to use his unique method to heal Uncle Fu, so he didn’t dare interrupt as he backed out the door and closed it.
Lin Yi wasn’t planning on healing Li Fu on the first day. Although it seemed as though the enemies were all taken care of, that they would lay low for a while, it didn’t guarantee that one of them might do something drastic and out of reason in their most dire time. He was prepared to heal Uncle Fu throughout the span of a few days since he’d be able to recover that way.
After all, Uncle Fu would still be a cripple after recovering, so there was no rush.
Physical practitioners were different from spiritual ones, and Lin Yi could only fix Li Fu’s body to its initial status, unable to bring it back to its strength! This was because physical practitioners trained the body, and Lin Yi couldn’t train his body for him.
He channeled the Art of Dragon Mastery, and started repairing Uncle Fu’s nerves! The energy within him flowed out endlessly into his body, quickly repairing his broken insides. Lin Yi was planning on dealing with those first before healing his external injuries!
After the internal injuries were taken care of, he’d be able to wake up. Although it wasn’t sure whether he would be able to get out of his bed, it didn’t matter too much.
Half an hour later, Lin Yi let out a long breath. He’d used up about one-third of his energy to heal the destroyed insides. He didn’t keep anything back the way he did when he healed Liu Bojia, but instead, let all of Li Fu’s organs get the full recovery.
Uncle Fu had been lying in bed for a long time, and the instant his organs were repaired, he woke up gradually. After seeing Lin Yi, he paused and tensed up. “Mister Lin, hurry- the Miss and Shu, they’ve been kidnapped!”
“Heh, I’ve rescued them.” Lin Yi smiled, not expecting Li Fu to be so loyal and sacrificing himself for Yao Yao and Shu. His first words after waking were for him to go rescue them, as well!
“Fu…” Uncle Fu let out a long breath. “Good, good! Mister Lin, you’re the one who saved me? Yes, of course, it was you- my apologies. Thank you!”
“Haha, Uncle Fu- we’re not strangers. You got injured protecting Yao Yao and Shu, of course, I’d help you.” Lin Yi smiled, not thinking of what he did as anything noteworthy.
“Then I’ll let my gratitude speak for itself!” Li Fu nodded. “By the way, Mister Lin…”
“Call me Yi- Uncle Chu calls me that too.” Lin Yi interrupted.
“Alright, I’ll call you Yi.” Li Fu said after some hesitation. “Yi, I’ve always wondered, your qi can be used to heal others. Normally, other than sect brothers within the same sect, it’s not beneficial to use your qi on someone from a different sect—it might cause harm!”
“I know, but my case is a bit special.” Lin Yi naturally knew about what Li Fu was talking about. Different types of qi entering a spiritual practitioner’s body would require even more qi to refine it, otherwise, it’d cause fatal damage to the person one was healing! This was also how Lin Yi’s qi, through entering Yao Wang’s body without the use of the Art of Dragon Mastery, would cause him harm instead of good!
“Ah… Are you from House Sun?” Li Fu hesitated before asking.
“House Sun? Which House Sun?” Lin Yi paused.
“So you’re not…” Li Fu knew that he’d guessed wrong when looking at Lin Yi’s reaction. He shook his head. “Yes, even those from House Sun can’t heal this many people—their qi only works for a select amount of people…”
“What do you mean?” Lin Yi was a little interested. “Uncle Fu, you’re saying that this House Sun possesses the same abilities that I do?”
This was the first time Lin Yi heard that another noble house was capable of this ability as well, using their qi to heal another’s wounds!
“You can put it that way!” Li Fu nodded, his eyes reminiscent. “In the world of Wulin, there are spiritual practitioners and physical practitioners, but there are also medical noble houses and healer noble houses. In these two types were actually support type houses, similar to the doctor and priest in those online games. In actuality, those online games drew a lot of their inspiration from the legends surrounding the noble houses…”
