Chapter 709: Chapter 223 Hurry Up, Hurry Up Chapter 709: Chapter 223 Hurry Up, Hurry Up “How can you say that, missy? The miracle doctor saved my life, giving him anything would be worth it.”
Dong Tiesong said, “Besides, you still owe him. Not settling that debt would sit uncomfortably with you. If I gave too little, that would be causing you to lose face, wouldn’t it?”
“We can’t let the reputation of our little princess of Cloud Palace be tainted!” Dong Tiesong said.
Dong Xiaoyan felt increasingly embarrassed.
This was the sort of temperant this missy had. If you did wrong, I wouldn’t mind swindling you, robbing you or even hitting you. But if you always looked out for , I would start to feel awkward.
She would usually want to repay kindness with even more.
She said: “Then let help him choose, if we really give him everything, we’re being too generous towards him…”
She then started looking through the stuff, picking and choosing.
Dong Tiesong began to feel that sothing was amiss.
Even his eyes changed.
What was going on?
This missy seed to be acting like a housewife, as if she could make all the decisions. What was happening?
The more he thought about it, the more confused he got, his suspicions growing increasingly.
Could it be that it really was…?
After quite so ti, Dong Xiaoyan finished selecting. She kept the items she chose into her ring and handed the remaining items, along with the ring, to Dong Tiesong. “These should do.”
Dong Tiesong took a look, and couldn’t help coughing. “You might as well have given him everything, at least then you would seem more generous. But your selection…”
What Dong Xiaoyan chose—
All the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were gone.
All the warm jade pieces were gone.
All the Spiritual Pearls were gone.
All the elixirs were nowhere to be seen.
Half of the top-quality spirit crystals too, which ant ten thousand pieces.
As for what was left… What was left might have been a lot in terms of volu, taking up more than half of the space. But the value of these things didn’t even amount to one-tenth of what Dong Xiaoyan took.
“I had no choice, I need to restock…”
Dong Xiaoyan accidentally ntioned ‘restock’, then quickly added: “…I need to restock to give them away as gifts. After all, my superior health is all thanks to the miracle doctor, allowing to increase two Heavenly Levels. Shouldn’t I thank him properly?”
“I have nothing worthy to offer. I had to make do with what I could find here to return the favor.” Dong Xiaoyan explained.
Having said that, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. She nearly let her secret slip out.
Hearing this, Dong Tiesong felt at ease.
Since she knew the importance of being grateful, that ant it couldn’t be that kind of relationship.
After all, what kind of man would want compensation from his own woman?
Even if it is to save face, it still sounded indecent!
His heart lightened, and suddenly he thought of sothing else. “Yan Yan, since the miracle doctor has been so kind to us, even if you were the one to hand over the items, we can’t just let it slide so easily. If anything happens in the future, let your grandpa know, I can throw a punch or two, I’m not that old.”
“I understand, I’ll tell the miracle doctor that if he needs any help, he should find you directly, not Cloud Palace, am I right?”
“Hmm, and if the miracle doctor needs anything, just inform , we should try our best to help.”
Dong Tiesong said: “Yan Yan, don’t take this lightly, there are plenty of old folks like in Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace…especially your ancestors…at that ti, they were fighting tooth and nail for ranking, many suffered severe injuries. You can’t underestimate the importance of the miracle doctor’s elixir. It’s nothing less than the essence of the Great Dao, hard to co by. We will need a lot more in the future…”
Dong Xiaoyan suddenly had a headache, her gaze went a little blank: “This…”
She suddenly rembered what the Cat Emperor said to her this morning.
“Missy, as a mber of the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace, you should understand the importance of having a strong backing…While Kid Feng seems to be on a roll right now, he’s still just a stray cultivator with little foundation.”
“Your Majesty, just say what you want, I’ll listen.”
“In cases of serious injuries, irreversible disabilities…as long as Kid Feng has the ability to heal them, it’s an excellent capital.”
The Cat Emperor said seriously, “This could form the foundation for Kid Feng’s power in the future, do you understand now?”
“…I don’t completely understand.”
“…” The Cat Emperor was at a loss for words.
Had it not been for his understanding of this missy’s nature—’cold on the surface and kind-hearted underneath’—he would have thought she was deliberately playing dumb.
You, as the future leader of Cloud Palace, don’t comprehend this simple truth?
“Those who are seriously injured but are not malevolent, those who still have a conscience, especially those who know gratitude…of course, those who can afford to pay should be healed! It doesn’t necessarily have to be one person or even two or three…”
The Cat Emperor said: “Just like now, a re strategist from Yan State can stir up such a big storm with just one strategy and one letter. Even if it’s clear to everyone what he’s scheming, we’re still forced to participate, isn’t that frustrating?”
“Even if it’s in our favor and we stand to benefit, being manipulated is still frustrating, right?”
“But if you have countless experts supporting you, who would dare to do it? With a call, you can gather nurous followers, your vision filled with the strongest of this world. Who would dare to trap you then?”
“That would be the real force in the jianghu world, sothing everyone looks up to.”
The Cat Emperor tapped Dong Xiaoyan’s forehead with disappointnt: “We can’t stay isolated forever, right? Jianghu ans ‘rivers and lakes’, you need to have enough ‘water’ to be a real player.”
Dong Xiaoyan finally saw the light. “Yes, you’re right!”
Just now she was still wondering where to find so many rich, resourceful, powerful patients who knew how to repay a favor…
But now, after hearing what Dong Tiesong said, she felt enlightened.
But with that cos a headache.
Because by doing so, I’d be dragged into acting as a middleman.
Help one side betray the other?
Or help the other side betray this one?
No matter how I look at it, it’s all bad!
“Surely in the future, we must be open and honest about our intentions, but doing so would put Little Wind at a disadvantage…” Dong Xiaoyan thought to herself.
The problem is, this girl didn’t realize that she had already taken sides.
She was clearly siding with Feng Yin, and even had thoughts on how to double cross her own family.
She hadn’t even considered the idea of getting Feng Yin to treat people for free…
Because in Miss Dong’s mind, if Feng Yin suffers a loss, doesn’t that an she’s at a loss too?
After all, I am a shareholder of the Conscience General Store.
When Dong Tiesong finished speaking, he anxiously watched Dong Xiaoyan.
He wasn’t sure how much her reputation was worth to the divine doctor, or whether it was enough to get him to agree.
Could it be that all the favors have been used up?
Oh, how wonderful it would be if everyone at Cloud Palace was cured!
On another note, this also serves to test the waters with Jiang Changhai.
If Feng Yin can cure the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace, he could presumably do the sa for the Absolute Sword Devil Palace.
The so-called old devils, although they reign with terror and create havoc to the point of being compared to the supre devil, yet when it cos to killing the innocent and being on the Heavenly Judge’s hit list, there are few, if any.
Again, it all cos down to the Human-Level category.
Bullying ordinary people doesn’t bring any real pleasure; there’s no point!
After saying this, Dong Xiaoyan started to go into deep thought and furrow her eyebrows…
Does she not have faith in this?
Or have all the favors been used up?
This is bad… What do we do next?!
“I need to consult the divine doctor about this. My word here doesn’t carry any weight.”
Dong Xiaoyan felt that she couldn’t make the decision herself. Feng Yin would have to be in on this.
The Cat Emperor had given his consent, but after all, he isn’t Feng Yin. No matter how much he thinks for others, the final decision can only be made by Feng Yin.
If he says it’s feasible, it is.
If he says it’s not… well, then, it doesn’t matter if it’s feasible or not!
Yeah, so let’s just proceed this way!
As she thought about this, a phrase suddenly sprang to mind: “Where he leads, I follow”.
At this, she blushes and grumbles in annoyance: “What a bunch of rubbish trouble!”.
Rubbish trouble?
The speaker didn’t an it, but the listener took it to heart.
Dong Tiesong’s heart skipped a beat – as he’d suspected, the divine doctor couldn’t treat that many people. After all, he was using the very real power of the Great Dao, and even if he possessed a miraculous physique that could refine the power of the Great Dao through external objects, he definitely couldn’t do it to that extent.
He said with increasingly tact: “Let’s just give it a try, ask around, successful or not, we will be grateful. What do you think, girl?”
“Let’s give it a try then.”
Dong Xiaoyan frowned, considering how she would bring up the subject with Feng Yin.
How can she strike a balance where everyone is happy…
Finding this balance is such a headache!
But her expression conveyed a clear signal to Dong Tiesong: There’s no guarantee this will work!
She looked very troubled!
“Can’t you stop being so indecisive? I’m just giving it a try, I can’t guarantee anything. And please don’t leak any information. Pointless joy aside, it could cause all sorts of unnecessary trouble.”
Dong Xiaoyan felt compelled to add this.
“Of course, of course. I’ve been around for many years and have experienced a lot. I understand this matter very well.”
Dong Tiesong nodded again and again.
“Go now, go get so rest. You have dark circles under your eyes. Didn’t you sleep well last night?”
Dong Tiesong thought to himself, sleep well? I didn’t even sleep at all…
Dong Xiaoyan started to miss her room, she had to admit that the rest she got there was much more comforting and relaxing than the inn. Moreover, she felt safer, without the fear of sudden attacks, she slept extrely well.
“Go, just go!”
