Villains: Starting with the Landlady

Page 128

Ling Yun found Wang Xiaohu increasingly pleasing to the eye, and as for his infertility, that was no big deal. Wang Xiaohu was destined to become a great hero, and a true hero should be selfless, untouched by romantic entanglements, and focused solely on martial arts.

Besides, the two tricks I'm going to teach him will be enough to benefit him for the rest of his life.

"Brother Ling, when will you teach me?" Wang Xiaohu licked his lips, his desire growing stronger.

"Don't worry, I'll teach you once I'm done with what I'm doing!" Ling Yun would never lie to him; right now, the most important thing was Zhao Ling'er on Immortal Spirit Island.

After the two returned to town, before they could even separate, they saw Ding Xiulan and her companion running towards them.

"Brother Ling, Aunt Li has fainted at home!"

"what?"

Although Ling Yun knew the truth perfectly well, he still pretended to be shocked and followed her back to the inn.

The group arrived at Sun Lan's room. When the town's doctor saw Ling Yun, he pulled him aside and whispered, "Little Ling, you need to be mentally prepared for this."

"Yes, go ahead and tell me, doctor." Ling Yun nodded.

"Your aunt's illness... didn't just start today or yesterday; it's caused by years of overwork. I can only prescribe some medicine to help regulate her body. It will probably be very difficult to cure her completely."

The doctor looked troubled. After all, it would be hard for any doctor with a conscience to not be able to treat a patient well, or even to watch the patient grow thinner and thinner. This was especially true for a fellow villager.

Ling Yun frowned, glanced at Sun Lan who was sleeping on the bed, and was about to speak when Wang Xiaohu stopped him.

"Brother Ling, I know where I can save Aunt Li!"

"Oh dear, I'd completely forgotten!" The doctor smiled. "A while ago, Little Tiger's father had a similar ailment, and he was cured in the end thanks to a miraculous elixir he obtained!"

"Please prescribe some medicine first, no matter what. I'll figure out a way to get the elixir."

The doctor stroked his beard, praised him for his filial piety, and then left.

The elder sister, Ding Xianglan, was responsible for taking care of the unconscious Sun Lan, while the younger sister, Ding Xiulan, secretly slipped Ling Yun some loose change.

"Brother Ling, this is a small token of our appreciation; you must accept it."

"Thank you, Xiulan. I will not let you down in the future."

Ling Yun held her small hand tightly, then hugged her before letting go of her, whose face was flushed with embarrassment.

He turned and headed out, intending to find a small boat to go to Fairy Spirit Island and treat Sun Lan's illness as soon as possible.

Although medicine is very advanced in the main world, this kind of chronic illness is difficult to cure quickly and can only be cured by the magical elixirs in this world.

Wang Xiaohu ran after him, grabbing Ling Yun's sleeve and saying hurriedly, "Brother Ling, it was Brother Zhang who rowed the boat to take me there. The fairy sister who gave me the elixir said that only those with pure hearts can reach them, and they can only go once in their lives! If you harbor bad intentions, you will get lost in the fog and never be able to leave!"

Pure goodness?

Ling Yun stopped in his tracks. If such a mechanism really existed, he would never be able to get in even in eight hundred lifetimes!

I've done almost every bad thing imaginable; I'm not good at all.

"Haha, this young man is right."

At this moment, the Black Miao chieftain from upstairs came over and handed Ling Yun a pill and a hammer with a smile: "Young brother, it's not a problem for you to reach the island, but you are an adult after all, and your mind is far less pure than that of a child, so you naturally cannot easily obtain the elixir."

"However, if you take this pill, it will help you block the miasma on the island. Then, use this [Heaven-Shattering Hammer] to smash the six statues, and you will be able to pass through the obstacles and find that fairy sister."

Ling Yun accepted the pills and the Sky-Breaking Hammer, and even swallowed the pills right in front of him.

The Black Miao chieftain chuckled and nodded approvingly: "Young man, I believe you can definitely cure your aunt!"

Chapter 307 Immortal Spirit Island [Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets]

Arriving at the east side of the market, we found a dock where a merchant ship was moored, waiting for the storm to pass before heading to Suzhou.

Lingyun found Zhang Sige standing nearby. He usually went out to sea to catch fish and shrimp in his own wooden boat.

"Brother Zhang Si!"

Zhang Sige was idling around when he heard Ling Yun's voice and looked up at him with some surprise.

"What's wrong, Lingyun? If you want to buy shrimp from me, I don't have any. I can't go out to sea these days."

"Brother Zhang, I heard from Xiao Hu Zi that you were the one who led him to the Fairy Sister..."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense!" Brother Zhang quickly shushed him. "Lingyun, even if you're a womanizer, you can't do this. If people find out, they might make the waves bigger and prevent us from going out to sea!"

"No, it's my aunt who's sick..."

After Ling Yun's persuasive words, and with the powerful effect of his [Natural Affinity], Brother Zhang finally agreed to let him venture out to sea once.

Lingyun jumped off the boat, and Zhang Sige picked up the oars and headed towards the island they had accidentally discovered earlier.

Perhaps it was the effect of [luck and protection], because after Lingyun set sail, the wind and waves really did stop, and the sea was unusually calm.

Zhang Sige was also amazed. Earlier today, he had bravely come to check on the situation and almost got killed. He never expected that it would be fine now.

Ling Yun sat to the side without saying a word, his gaze fixed on the direction of Immortal Spirit Island.

The island isn't actually that magical; the fairy sister is actually the female lead, Zhao Ling'er.

The pill that the Black Miao chieftain gave him wasn't some kind of obstacle-avoiding pill, but rather a forgetfulness-preserving gu. Its effect was that after one day, Ling Yun would forget everything that happened before he took it; he wouldn't remember helping his aunt find the pill, nor would he remember any of his encounters with Zhao Ling'er.

This was the beginning of all evil and the cause of the tragedy that followed.

However, Ling Yun possesses the LV2 "Immunity to All Poisons," which grants him immunity to toxins of SSS level or lower, making the Forget-Me-Not Gu a piece of cake for him.

The reason the Black Miao tribe's minor leader sent him to break the formation was because, compared to his own conscience, these people were too corrupt and would get lost within the formation set up by Immortal Spirit Island, unable to find the six statues (the formation's core). Their goal was to kidnap Zhao Ling'er and take her back to Miao territory, hoping to rely on Ling Yun to break the formation so they could reap the rewards later.

If Li Xiaoyao had fallen for it before, he would have definitely been caught off guard, but he wouldn't allow it to happen.

After paddling for a while, Brother Zhang finally caught a glimpse of an island.

Ling Yun memorized the route, and he patted Zhang Sige on the shoulder with a smile, making Zhang Sige look dazed for a moment.

"Go back first, and remember not to tell anyone about this."

"Yes!"

Ling Yun hung Mo Bai around his waist, then stepped across the water towards Immortal Spirit Island.

Lightness skill that allows one to walk on water? Ling Yun naturally possesses this skill, which even third-rate characters in the martial arts world would know.

He made Zhang Sige one of his own, partly to prevent Zhang from finding out anything, but more importantly because according to the original predetermined fate, Zhang would eventually marry Ding Xianglan, which was naturally unacceptable to Ling Yun. Both women were gentle and charming, and deeply in love with him; how could he let this man have his way?

Zhang Sige rowed back to Yuhang Town, and Lingyun also arrived at Xianling Island.

Upon stepping onto the island, Ling Yun immediately felt a strange aura surging towards him, like an automatic detection device capable of judging a person's inner thoughts.

Soon, those auras confirmed Ling Yun's true nature—extremely impure!

Ling Yun possesses maxed-out X-ray vision, allowing him to see through illusions as if he were directly analyzing program code.

His lips twitched slightly after he realized he had been rejected.

Although Li Xiaoyao was somewhat cynical, he was still kind-hearted and came to the island simply to save Sun Lan.

But what about Ling Yun? All he could think about was Zhao Ling'er.

However, the formation couldn't stop him. He put away the Sky-Piercing Hammer and walked straight into the mist.

Without needing to dismantle the array's core, all the arrays appeared useless under his eyes. With his hands behind his back, he accurately found the correct path, passed through the outer array, and entered the Immortal Spirit Cave.

After he went inside, the aura of the test disappeared immediately, and he felt much lighter.

The aura emanating from him made him feel somewhat exasperated, like watching helplessly as your neighbor, Old Wang, barges into your house, and you can only watch him and your wife being affectionate through the security camera, yet you are powerless to rage.

I have to say, this feeling is really great!

Ling Yun was used to being a minotaur; he was already the biggest blond-haired guy in the world.

After he went inside, he followed the path for a while and finally found a large pond and some clothes by the pond.

Ling Yun crouched down and walked to the edge of the pond, using a large tree to hide his figure, and then saw the girl in the middle of the pond.

A beautiful young woman with exquisite features and youthful energy was bathing in the middle, completely unaware that someone had broken through the formation and arrived here.

Her skin was as white as jade, and Ling Yun was amazed by her beauty at first glance.

As expected of a descendant of Nuwa, her figure and appearance are simply flawless!

The only drawback is that he's too young, just turned eighteen.

Ling Yun shook his head violently, and the ear-piercing sound of the clip disappeared from his mind.

He cleared his throat, grinned mischievously, and called out to the girl in the pond, "Fairy Sister!"

These words terrified the girl in the pond. She screamed and sank into the water with a splash, leaving only half of her head above the surface.

"I'm sorry, Fairy Sister." Ling Yun pushed aside the grass on the bank and covered his eyes with one hand. "I just wanted to ask Fairy Sister for a magic pill!"

"You...you move aside!"

"Get out of the way?"

"Yes!" Zhao Ling'er's face flushed red, while she suppressed her anger. "Turn around and face away from me, then walk 50 steps forward without looking back!"

"it is good."

Ling Yun covered her eyes, turned around, and obediently walked forward.

Seeing that he had gone far away, Zhao Ling'er mustered up her courage and came to the shore. Just as she was about to reach for her clothes, she found that Ling Yun was staring at her intently from not far away.

"what!!"

A piercing scream echoed across the sky once more on Immortal Spirit Island, then the sky darkened, and a bolt of lightning struck the spot where Ling Yun had been standing.

"Wow, I didn't mean to!"

"You...you big pervert!"

Zhao Ling'er hurriedly dressed, her long hair still wet, her hands forming a seal, hovering in mid-air, controlling heavenly lightning to bombard Ling Yun.

Ling Yun dodged her spells with his nimble steps. As expected of one of the female leads, he was already so strong at such a young age. More importantly, Zhao Ling'er used magic, and her power system far exceeded the martial arts he had learned.

However, Zhao Ling'er did not intend to kill Ling Yun. After completely blocking Ling Yun's path, she slowly descended from mid-air.

"You lecherous scoundrel..." Zhao Ling'er didn't know what words to use to describe him. Her small hands trembled slightly, as if she was hesitating whether to give him a real punishment.

Ling Yun bowed respectfully and said, "Fairy Sister, my aunt is seriously ill at home. I heard from an eight-year-old boy in town that you have elixirs here, so I dared to trespass here... I have defiled Fairy Sister's innocence, but I hope Fairy Sister will have a change of heart and save my aunt. You can do whatever you want with me then!"

Chapter 308 Zhao Linger

After listening to what he said, Zhao Ling'er slowly descended from mid-air.

"You mean, your aunt is sick too?"

The girl was still too naive. She had come to live on Fairy Spirit Island at a very young age and knew almost nothing about the outside world, nor had she ever seen a man.

Coupled with the youth's deceptive appearance and Ling Haiwang's superb acting skills, Zhao Ling'er quickly believed him.

"Yes, fairy sister, my aunt has fallen ill from overwork, and the doctor in town can't cure her... If this continues, my aunt might die!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ling'er sighed softly, "She's a pitiful person too. Well then, come with me. While Grandma isn't in the palace, get the pill and leave quickly!"

"Thank you, fairy sister!"

"Don't call me Fairy Sister anymore, you should be a few years older than me."

Now that some of the misunderstandings had been cleared up, Zhao Ling'er carefully examined Ling Yun's appearance, and her exquisite face quickly turned bright red.

"Um... then what should I call you?"

"My name is Zhao Ling'er." The girl smiled slightly and walked towards the palace. "And you?"

"My name is Ling Yun."

“Ling Yun…” She paused, as those two words triggered a flood of hidden memories, leaving her stunned and frozen in place.

"Miss Zhao, what's wrong?"

"You said your name is Ling Yun?" The girl stared intently at his face. The fragment that had been sealed away by someone was released, and the blurry face of the young man in her memory became clear again.

Yes...yes, Brother Ling has finally arrived!

Before Ling Yun could react, the girl threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

"Brother Ling, sob... Ling'er misses you so much..."
