The thunderous applause lasted for a full two minutes before it stopped. Naturally, Ling Yun was calm about it while Xue Meining was feeling so blessed and shy that her head was literally buried in Ling Yun’s chest.

The applause and cheers weren’t only because of the stunning treasures that Ling Yun brought. It was also because of his graceful display of magical medical expertise, because of how unaffected he was by everything, because of his calmness and smile, because of his generosity as well as his golden heart of filial piety!

“Impressive! Respect!” After the applause died down, there was only one person who was still applauding. Hu Shaobai nodded at Ling Yun with an awkward smile.

At this moment, everyone knew that there was no more show for them to watch. Every item that Ling Yun brought out was a rarity in this world. The reason why he said that Hu Shaobai’s ginseng was ordinary had also come to light.

It was true that a nine-hundred-year-old ginseng was a good item and indeed a rare sight. However, it couldn’t be compared to the ginseng kings brought out by Ling Yun. Moreover, Ling Yun even brought out two Chinese Knotweeds.

The majority of the guests returned to their seats as they cleared out the space. They continued to look at Ling Yun in shock and amazement before pinching their own thighs. They had to verify that everything that just happened was true and not just a dream!

As a young valley master of the Miracle Physician Valley, Hu Shaobai had to have a certain level of bearing and manner, so he smiled at Ling Yun. “Ling Yun, since you’ve given Sister Ning Er her birthday present, I wonder if it’s possible for you to return the jade box. Regardless, I came here to celebrate Sister Ning Er’s birthday, so you have to let me give Sister Ning Er my present.”

Xue Meining smiled sweetly, and just as she was about to reject him, Ling Yun placed his lips close to her ear as he whispered, “You can accept it now.”

A nine-hundred-year-old ginseng was still a good ginseng. Naturally, Ling Yun wouldn’t want Ning Er not to accept something like that. Now that he had extinguished Hu Shaobai’s flame, even if he had something to say, he had no choice but to swallow it back into his stomach.

Xue Meining listened to everything Ling Yun said, so she nodded politely at Hu Shaobai. It was considered that she accepted his birthday present.

Ling Yun shook his head and said, “Ah... About that, I’m sorry! I used your jade box to store something earlier. It is also a birthday present for Ning Er. Give me a moment!”

After saying that, Ling Yun let go of Xue Meining as he bent over to the ground once more. He extended his arms into the black plastic bag as he picked up the jade box and placed it on the table.

The jade box was about 40cm long and 20cm wide. Currently, Ling Yun had filled it up with dragon saliva.

When they saw how Ling Yun was even more cautious when he took out the jade box than when he took out the Night-Luminescent Pearls, everyone thought, No way?

Could this be even more precious than the Night-Luminescent Pearls and ginseng kings? Otherwise, why did Ling Yun choose to take it out last? And why did he look so cautious and serious?

At this moment, none of them stood up to surround him. All of them simply watched from their own seats, because Ling Yun was already surrounded by that bunch of old men.

“Ling Yun, what is this?” The spirited old man was the most anxious one of them all. Before Ling Yun could open the jade box, he asked desperately.

“Hehe, grandpa, don’t be anxious! You will know once I open it,” Ling Yun replied as he was grinning from ear to ear.

If he were to compare the value, the eighteen Night-Luminescent Pearls and those ginseng kings and Chinese Knotweeds were nothing at all. The most precious of them all was naturally the dragon saliva.

Under the eyes of many curious onlookers, Ling Yun opened the lid of the jade box cautiously. In that moment, everyone took in a huge breath of air at the same time.

“What is that? Why is it so fragrant? Someone is getting drunk here...” Someone couldn’t help but exclaim! Concurrently, everyone opened up their mouths and noses to inhale the fragrance of the dragon saliva. It was actually the spiritual energy of the dragon saliva.

It wasn’t just them, even Ling Yun felt weird. Initially, the dragon saliva wasn’t so fragrant as it was milky white and there were no taste or odor. How did it become so fragrant all of a sudden?

Ling Yun absorbed the spiritual energy of the dragon saliva and felt that there was no problem with it. It wasn’t different from when he was in the Yin Yang Dragon Lock Spell...

“No... it seems like this spiritual energy is even purer than before...” Ling Yun racked his brain and suddenly had an idea! Could it be because of the gourd?

What kind of treasure was that gourd? Since when did it have such a magical use?

Great! This is really great! Ling Yun was celebrating wildly in his heart while trying to maintain his calmness on the outside.

While everyone was engrossed in this fragrance, nobody knew what it was. Everyone looked longingly at Ling Yun, waiting for him to give an answer.

Miracle Doctor Xue, Hu Shaobai, and Long Tianyu got excited all of a sudden. The three of them went forward to take a long look at the dragon saliva in the jade box. However, none of them said anything.

Ling Yun laughed; it looked like there were people who recognized this. This saved him from having to explain.

However, Ling Yun wasn’t surprised that Miracle Doctor Xue and Hu Shaobai recognized the dragon saliva. Ling Yun was more surprised that Long Tianyu, who wasn’t much older than him, actually recognized the dragon saliva too.

Miracle Doctor Xue, Hu Shaobai, and Long Tianyu lifted their heads simultaneously as they exchanged serious glances with one another. After that, Miracle Doctor Xue’s lips moved slightly as if he was telling the two of them something. Following which, the two of them nodded in unison.

Ling Yun knew that Miracle Doctor Xue had sent a telepathic signal to the two of them.

Miracle Doctor Xue then went on to cover his mouth as he pretended to cough before sending Ling Yun a telepathic signal too. “Ling Yun, is this dragon saliva?”

Ling Yun smiled as he nodded at him. He wondered why Miracle Doctor Xue was so serious about such a small amount of dragon saliva. He still had over one thousand kg worth of dragon saliva with him...

Miracle Doctor Xue’s body started shivering vigorously, and he only calmed himself down after a long while. He coughed and apologized to the crowd before shutting the jade box and walking towards his own private room.

Everyone looked at each other as they wondered what kind of treasure Ling Yun brought. Why was Miracle Doctor Xue so cautious and secretive about it?

Until Miracle Doctor Xue disappeared, the fragrance was still spreading in the living room. It was mellow and rich, causing everyone’s mind to be intoxicated.

Hu Shaobai and Long Tianyu looked over in the direction Miracle Doctor Xue walked with envy. They only turned back when they couldn’t see him anymore. At almost the same time, they stared hard at Ling Yun!

Long Tianyu was at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Eight!

“Brother Ling Yun, what was that? Why is it so fragrant?” Xue Meining couldn’t control her curiosity as she whispered in Ling Yun’s ears.

Ling Yun was naturally not going to hide anything from Xue Meining. Since he dared to take it out, he wasn’t worried about it at all. Therefore, he explained to Ning Er using telepathy but told her not to disclose it to the public.

Xue Meining heard him, and even though she was so shocked that her mouth was opened wide, she didn’t make any noise at all. This was because she personally witnessed the appearance of the Protection of the Nine Dragons on Ling Yun’s body. She was already immune to Ling Yun’s abnormality.

After a full twenty minutes, Miracle Doctor Xue finally walked out into the living room. He got Xue Chengye to store the Night-Luminescent Pearls, ginseng kings, and Chinese Knotweeds well before returning to his seat as though nothing happened.

“Come come come, why is everyone still standing? Have a seat and let’s drink...”

After everything that had happened here, who was still in the mood to drink? Everyone stood up as they bid their goodbyes. However, no matter who was leaving, they would walk towards Xue Meining to say goodbye and wish her a happy birthday. Naturally, it was also to say goodbye to Ling Yun and give him their blessings!

“Brother Ling Yun, you were so impressive today! They were all stunned by you!” Xue Meining secretly whispered in Ling Yun’s ear when nobody was paying attention to them.

In the end, it was Li Youmin, Hu Shaobai, and Long Tianyu who came to bid goodbye to Xue Meining. Before they left, Long Tianyu looked at Ling Yun before saying, “Ling Yun, if you’re free to visit Beijing, please remember to visit my Long Family! Just say you’re looking for Long Tianyu of the Long Family. I’ll make sure everyone knows who you are!”

“Alright!” Ling Yun wasn’t pretentious as he smiled and nodded his head. He accepted Long Tianyu’s invite.

To be honest, Ling Yun really wanted to warn Long Tianyu to be careful of the Chen Family. However, he thought about it and chose not to do so. This was because the games between the noble families weren’t something he could interfere with at this moment. Moreover, it wasn’t something he wished to interfere with.

Li Youmin also invited Ling Yun with extreme politeness and told him to visit his Li Family at Beijing too. Ling Yun agreed to that request as well.

Eventually, Hu Shaobai looked at Ling Yun and Xue Meining with mixed feelings for a long while. He sighed as he accepted his fate. His father, Hu Qingshan’s plot had failed.

Miracle Doctor Xue’s guess was right, Hu Qingshan really wanted to make sure of the marriage between Hu Shaobai and Xue Meining to open access to everything Miracle Doctor Xue had in this world. He wanted to further develop the Miracle Physician Valley, but with Ling Yun here, everyone knew that it was no longer possible. He had to think of other ways.

“Ling Yun, can you tell me what realm you are in?” As Hu Shaobai turned, he sent Ling Yun a telepathic signal.

Hu Shaobai wasn’t an idiot, so he knew that Ling Yun was definitely not an ordinary person. Otherwise, how could he possess that many treasures?

However, no matter how hard he tried, he wasn’t able to discern or tell that Ling Yun had any cultivation level at all. Therefore, he could only ask him directly.

He paused for a while before leaving but didn’t hear Ling Yun’s reply. He knew that Ling Yun didn’t want to reveal his strength, so he could only shake his head and leave with a bitter smile on his face.

Soon after, the guests in the living room had left. The only people left were Xue Chengye and his wife, Ling Yun and Xue Meining, as well as some staff hired to clean up the area.

It was the end of the banquet!

Ling Yun’s faint smile on his face finally turned serious as he sent a telepathic message to Ning Er. “Ning Er, can you tell me now? What happened during the past few days?”

Ning Er’s expression changed, and just when she was about to reply, Xue Chengye hurried over with a smile and told Ling Yun politely, “Ling Yun, Ning Er’s grandpa wants you to go to his private room now! He has important matters to discuss with you.”

Ling Yun nodded swiftly as he went straight to the private room.

“I want to go too!” Xue Meining was afraid that her grandpa couldn’t explain it well, so she lifted her dress and ran behind Ling Yun.

“Our precious daughter has really turned into his woman...”

Xue Chengye looked at how anxious Ning Er was and couldn’t help but shake his head at Zhang Manyun.

Zhang Manyun rolled her eyes before saying, “Alright, stop pretending! Our daughter found such a great man, and we all know how happy you are! Just laugh or smile if you want!”

After saying that, Zhang Manyun was the first to laugh out loud as she was basically shivering in happiness.
