My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 358: Chapter 0357: Medical Conference (Part 1)_1

“Master Murong, what do you mean by this?”

“Fallen flowers aren’t heartless things; turned into spring mud, they protect the blooms anew… I, Murong Feng, have no daughters but Ruyin, and never imagined that I couldn’t even protect her mother,” Murong Feng sighed.

“There are many accidents in life, stepping over them is but a threshold; yet failing to do so might lead to an abyss.”

“Does Mr. Ye mean to imply something with those words?”

Ye Xiong didn’t hide anything and recounted the whole event.

This included his accidental intrusion into Murong Ruyin’s room, overhearing her dreaming, and after capturing Duanmu Kuang, someone murdered him with a poison somewhat similar to the one that killed Wu Lizhen; he laid out all these details.

“You suspect Ruyin ordered someone to kill Duanmu Kuang?” Murong Feng frowned.

“I would rather it wasn’t Ruyin who killed him a thousand times over. Duanmu Kuang had already been captured by us and should have been dealt with by us. If she really sent someone to do it, then she might fall into a trap of obsession over her mother’s death, and I’m afraid she might turn to dark thoughts.”

Ye Xiong spoke seriously; it was out of respect for Murong Feng that he spoke to him this way.

Murong Feng was silent for a moment before looking up and saying, “Brother Ye, I won’t lie to you. Ruyin has a very paranoid side in her personality. When she was little, a neighboring little girl took her toy… She hated that girl for a month, and one day, she deliberately led her to a broken bridge and nearly drowned her.”

Ye Xiong was inwardly shocked; he never expected such a dark side to Murong Ruyin’s character.

To take revenge after a month, such patience wasn’t typical for a six- or seven-year-old girl.

“We were terrified as parents, and it was only after relentless education that she started to improve. But we remained worried, fearing deep down she still harbored sinister thoughts. Now that you mention it, my concerns have only grown.”

“It shouldn’t be so serious, as long as she is properly guided, and she can recover from her mother’s death, there shouldn’t be any major problems,” said Ye Xiong.

“The trouble is, she has only ever listened to her mother, absolutely ignoring everyone else, and even I barely hold any sway over her,” Murong Feng sighed and said, “Mr. Ye, you are the most promising young man I have ever met, can you help me look after her?”

Ye Xiong was startled and quickly said, “Master Murong, I am already married.”

“Is that so…” Murong Feng was very regretful and after a long pause said, “I heard from Ruyin that she has joined your organization. Can you help me keep an eye on her in the future, to prevent her from making mistakes?”

Ye Xiong was momentarily at a loss, saying awkwardly, “Master Murong, in fact, I was thinking of having her stay by your side, to be guided by you slowly.”

“Didn’t you agree to let her join your organization?”

“This…”

Ye Xiong was actually regretting it a bit.

Someone like Murong Ruyin was too dangerous and difficult to control.

“Mr. Ye, other than you, no one else can help me. Look at my legs; I can hardly do anything now.”

Murong Feng took out two small booklets from his coat and handed them over: “As long as you agree to take care of my daughter and keep her from the wicked path, I am willing to bestow upon you the treasure of the Lingnan Sect, the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles.”

“Aren’t the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles secret techniques of the Lingnan Sect? Is it appropriate for me to inherit them?”

“I’m not passing them to you; it’s just that you are ‘unintentionally’ receiving the booklets.”

What Murong Feng meant couldn’t be clearer.

The upper part of the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles had already captivated Ye Xiong. Now the lower part seemed like a precious treasure to him, how could he not accept it? He quickly pocketed the booklets. @@novelbin@@

“Please take care of Ruyin,” he said.

“I’ll do my best!”

Having received a favorable deal, he had no choice but to help.

Ye Xiong then asked about the medical conference.

From Murong Feng, he learned that the once-every-five-years medical conference would take place at the local convention center. Apart from people from the Lingnan Sect, no others could attend.

After that, Ye Xiong took Phoenix to the convention center, surveyed the environment thoroughly, and arranged the defenses.

Even though he didn’t know what the prize for the competition was, Ye Xiong had a premonition that Long Tianya might send someone to disrupt the event.

On the second day, Ye Xiong set up three layers of defense for the Dragon Group people at the venue, and with his personal leadership, they maintained strict vigilance, while Phoenix disguised herself as a member of the Lingnan Sect to go in and protect Murong Ruyin.

Ye Xiong did not enter, but Phoenix kept reporting the progress of the competition from inside.

“The final match, Murong Ruyin against Duanmu Ba, the winner will earn the title of Lingnan Divine Doctor for five years,” Phoenix said through the microphone.

“A martial arts competition?” Ye Xiong was taken aback.

“Yes, a martial arts PK. In terms of medical skill, Murong Ruyin is superior, but in martial arts, if Murong Ruyin loses, then it would be up to the jury to determine the winner.”

Murong Ruyin, win against Duanmu Ba?

Ye Xiong was very doubtful, although he didn’t know how strong Duanmu Ba was, but being ranked after Duanmu Kuang, his strength must be extraordinary.

“Keep a close watch, let me know immediately if something happens,” Ye Xiong instructed.

Then minutes later, Phoenix called in.

“Murong Ruyin won, Duanmu Ba unfortunately died during the match,”

Ye Xiong couldn’t believe his ears, Murong Ruyin had actually won.

“How did Duanmu Ba die?” Ye Xiong asked urgently.

“I’m not too sure either, Duanmu Ba seemed off his game today, there was an accident, and he was accidentally killed by Murong Ruyin.”

Murong Ruyin was becoming more and more shocking, Ye Xiong inhaled sharply.

“Keep a close watch, see what the prize for the competition is, and don’t let anything happen at this critical moment.”

“I don’t know what the grand prize is, but three old men took Murong Ruyin inside.”

Could it be that the grand prize of the competition is not an item, but some kind of inheritance?

Ye Xiong stayed vigilantly at the entrance, but the Beast Organization that he had imagined never showed up.

One hour later, under the protection of Phoenix, Murong Ruyin walked out from the same way she had entered.

Ye Xiong walked up to meet them, and together with Phoenix, escorted Murong Ruyin back home.

The whole process went surprisingly smoothly.

Not only the Ghost, but even the people from the Beast Organization did not appear.

After returning to the Murong Family home, Murong Ruyin went straight to her room.

Following her, Ye Xiong closed the door behind him before asking, “What is the true target of the Beast Organization?”

“What Ghost wants is not an item, but a secret acupuncture technique obtained from the mouths of the three Lingnan Sect heirs.”

“What secret technique?”

“The Sealing Consciousness Technique. It is said that mastering this skill can eliminate bodily pain, entering a Nirvana-like realm, and moreover, this acupuncture method is rumored to accelerate the speed of Inner Strength cultivation.”

Ye Xiong understood now.

The reason why Ghost had captured Murong Feng was to obtain this secret technique from him. Since Murong Feng had been tight-lipped all along, Ghost had no choice but to send someone disguised as Murong Feng, planning to deliberately lose to Duanmu Kuang at the medical conference, thus allowing Duanmu Kuang to obtain this secret technique fair and square.

Murong Feng said that this secret technique was his original creation, it seems he was deliberately deceiving everyone.

This secret technique, it can accelerate the speed of Inner Strength cultivation?

“Are you going to keep your promise and tell me this secret technique?”

“Naturally.”

Murong Ruyin nodded in affirmation.
