Urban Immortal Lord
Chapter 51 Lin Zhiyuan's Request
From Xia Tian’s casual words, Huang Biao could roughly deduce that Ye Tianlong, the underground boss of M City, had already fallen into Xia Tian’s hands. Since the situation was hopeless, Huang Biao had no psychological burden. Since they were all dogs anyway, what difference did it make whose dog they were?
Moreover, Huang Biao felt deep down that Xia Tian had enormous potential. He was young but already possessed formidable strength, and his medical skills were so remarkable that they could turn the rotten into the miraculous. Such a person was destined to become a giant in the future!
Xia Tian did not get involved in the rest of the matter and left it to Guang Tou Qiang and Huang Biao to handle. However, Xia Tian set a time limit, ordering the two to take over all of Ye Tianlong's businesses within three days and then report the details to him.
Bald Qiang and Huang Biao also assured Xia Tian that they would complete the task Xia Tian assigned them, and then went off with great enthusiasm and joy.
On this day, news of the disappearance of Ye Tianlong, a bigwig in M City, and his men spread among the high-ranking officials.
Through the on-site investigation by the criminal police, a clue was found that Ye Tianlong and his men had not mysteriously disappeared, but had been murdered!
Just as the M City leadership was preparing to investigate the matter thoroughly at all costs, an order was issued to terminate the investigation. The reason given was that the murderer was a member of the martial arts world, and the higher-ups would be sending martial arts experts to M City to investigate the matter. They were urged not to alert the perpetrator!
As a result, this earth-shattering case was completely sealed off in M City and classified as top secret!
Xia Tian was completely unaware of all this. He didn't know that his actions had attracted attention, and that the higher-ups had even secretly dispatched martial arts experts to M City to investigate.
However, Xia Tian didn't care at all. He had already destroyed the evidence at the scene that night, and he was confident that no one could trace it back to him.
Around noon, accompanied by Chen Zijing, Xia Tian and Chen Zijing had a casual meal at the bar. Since the bar opened at 6 p.m., at this time, only Xia Tian and Chen Zijing were left in the entire bar.
Summer was quite enjoyable, and he would occasionally sip the tea brewed by Chen Zijing while pondering how to improve his cultivation. Logically speaking, he was currently at the sixth level of Qi Refining and should have nothing to fear.
Xia Tian had a bad feeling. With his current strength, he estimated that he could rival a martial arts legend. Even if he was no match for a martial arts legend, Xia Tian had ways to protect himself.
However, deep down, the ominous premonition grew stronger and stronger, making him eager to improve his cultivation level!
"What are you thinking about so intently?" Chen Zijing asked with concern when she saw Xia Tian lost in thought.
"No, I'm thinking about my future plans," Xia Tian said casually, shaking her head with a smile.
"By the way, do you have a place to stay in M City? Why don't you live with me in the villa from now on?" Chen Zijing couldn't help but ask, a little bit of anticipation in her heart after saying this.
Upon hearing this, Xia Tian chuckled and said, "That's not a good idea. I've rented a place in M City and I'm living quite comfortably."
At this point, Xia Tian suddenly remembered that he still had 10 million yuan in savings and 600,000 yuan in cash in rented apartments. He suddenly felt that he should take some time to buy an apartment in M City and then find a suitable reason to bring his parents and sister to live with him.
"What's wrong with that? I'm your woman now, everything I have belongs to you, doesn't it?" Chen Zijing said with a hint of resentment, "Actually, I really don't care about material things. If it weren't for that damned marriage, I don't know how free I would be now..."
Suddenly, Chen Zijing changed her tone and said, "You don't have some secret you're hiding, which is why you're not moving in with me, do you?"
Seeing this, Xia Tian smiled bitterly to himself. Then, with quick hands and eyes, he grabbed Chen Zijing's hand and put his other hand around her waist. He said gently, "No, that's not true. I just don't want others to think that I'm being kept by you. Besides, things that are too easily obtained often don't last. I'm still young and should focus on my dreams."
What Xia Tian didn't say was that if he wanted to gain fame and fortune in this world, it would only take him a moment. However, in his eyes, power, money, and beauty in this world were nothing but illusions and fleeting dreams. For ordinary people, they were nothing but empty dreams in the end.
Summer seeks the immortal traces lost in the long river of time, to escape birth, aging, sickness and death, and to reach the realm of immortality and indestructibility—this is the true meaning of cultivating immortality!
For Yu Xiatian, the hustle and bustle of the world and the passing of time are nothing more than a process of cultivating his mind through the "Human Way".
Chen Zijing didn't try to persuade Xia Tian to stay at her place anymore. Deep down, she also hoped that her man could have an ambitious spirit and prove that her judgment was good. After all, what woman doesn't want her man to be better than other men?
With nothing else to do, Xia Tian wandered around the bar. He found that Chen Zijing's little bar was decorated in a particularly warm and cozy style, with a simple yet elegant layout that appealed to young people. No wonder this bar had become a popular spot in M City.
Xia Tian thought he would spend the afternoon in boredom, and he was even prepared to work the night shift as a bar security guard. Suddenly, a phone call came in on his cell phone.
Xia Tian looked up and saw that the caller ID showed Lin Zhiyuan, the old Chinese medicine doctor he had met at Huichuntang before, who was also the owner of Huichuntang. He had a lot of respect for this old Chinese medicine doctor, so Xia Tian pressed the answer button.
"Dr. Xia, do you have some time now? I need your help with something." Lin Zhiyuan's voice came through the phone.
Seeing this, Xia Tian said, "I'm fine right now. Tell me, what do you need my help with?"
"Here's the thing," Lin Zhiyuan quickly explained. "A friend of mine has a daughter who has contracted a strange illness. We've been to many hospitals, but nothing seems to work. I'd like to ask you to help her."
"Alright." Xia Tian nodded, then said, "I can help with this, but I can't guarantee whether I can cure it."
After thinking for a moment, Xia Tian decided to help Lin Zhiyuan this time. After all, the snow lotus needed at Huichuntang last time was a gift from Lin Zhiyuan. As the saying goes, you can't be too soft-hearted to accept favors, so he had to repay the favor.
"Of course," Lin Zhiyuan said. "Where is Dr. Xia currently staying? My driver and I will come pick you up."
Xia Tian didn't expect Lin Zhiyuan to be in such a hurry. It seemed that the condition was not optimistic and had reached a point where there was no time to lose.
So Xia Tian said, "Come to the entrance of the Tonight No Go Home bar, I'll wait for you there."
