Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Luxury
âThis is the disciple I have newly accepted.â
Yin Daoyanâs words directly shook Deng Yunsheng to the core.
Master Yin accepting a disciple?
This is an extraordinary event!
The Hundred Herbs Hallâs Hall Master, the Sword Cauldron Sectâs Elder, the Elixir Doctor Yin Daoyan has accepted a disciple. If outsiders find out, who knows how many people would be beating their chests in envy of Zhong Lin.
Even though Deng Yunsheng is the manager of the Hundred Herbs Hall, he knows full well that all of his authority comes from Hall Master Yin Daoyan. Thus, he dared not be negligent; he quickly stepped aside while greeting Zhong Lin and returned the courtesy with a grand gesture.
âDeng Yunsheng pays respects to Young Master, wishing peace to the Young Master.â
Zhong Lin hurried to assist.
âOld Deng, thereâs no need for this.â
âYou are the disciple of Master Yin, naturally our Young Master of the Hundred Herbs Hall, such courtesies cannot be waived,â Deng Yunsheng said with a mix of fear and respect.
Yin Daoyanâs voice also sounded from the side, âZhong Lin, accept his bow. You can handle it.â
Zhong Lin stopped his actions, deeply feeling the importance of having a good master.
For Deng Yunsheng is a Fourth Grade Divine Power Realm expert, always on the verge of stepping into the Upper Third Grades. Such a person, regardless of where they are, is a significant figure, yet still dares not be neglectful in front of him.
âOld Deng, arrange accommodations for Zhong Lin, I am going to Miao Suo Garden.â
âYes.â
âMaster, should the disciple accompany you?â
âNo need, familiarize yourself with the Hundred Herbs Hall first.â
âYes.â
After giving an instruction, Yin Daoyan took a step to leave, followed closely by Gu Yourong.
Mei Weixuan also leaned over, winking and said, âZhong Lin, Iâll go home first, and then later take you for a stroll at Xiaoxiang Pavilion, donât be anxious.â
Zhong Linâs face darkened, just as he was about to retort, the guy had already slipped away quietly.
âYoung Master, please.â
Zhong Lin, holding Little Stone, began walking towards the Hundred Herbs Hall.
Along the way, Deng Yunsheng explained as they walked, giving Zhong Lin a rough understanding of the entire Hundred Herbs Hall.
Under the Hundred Herbs Hall are two major gardens: the Miao Shou Garden and the Dan Ding Garden, the former treats patients, the latter gathers herbs and refines pills.
Besides the independent gardens, there are also the Guard Team and the Medicine Collection Team.
These two teams practice martial arts daily, with the Hundred Herbs Hall supplying elixirs for cultivation, thus their speed of progress is extremely fast.
This makes the Hundred Herbs Hall itself a very powerful force, not to mention having the Sword Cauldron Sect as a backing.
Hence, Zhong Lin, as the Young Master of the Hundred Herbs Hall, holds an unparalleled status; whether one accepts it or not, unless you can confront the force behind him head-on.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at a courtyard, which would be better described as an estate rather than a courtyard.
The winding stone paths meandered like a maze, making one feel an urge to explore.
Just a few steps ahead was a pond, clear as crystal, with fish frolicking in the water, surrounded by intricately arranged rockery, like a small hill, giving a sense of landscape beauty.
Although it was already winter, with the herbs withered, the courtyard was densely filled with bamboo groves, the leaves swaying in the wind, rustling.
In this land-scarce Tianyang City, such an estateâs value is immeasurable.
âYoung Master, this will be your residence from now on. Are you satisfied?â Deng Yunsheng asked respectfully.
Zhong Lin did not answer directly, but instead looked down at Little Stone and asked, âDo you like it?â
Little Stone was already captivated by the fish playing in the pond, joyfully saying, âSo big, so beautiful, Second Brother, will we live here from now on?â
âAs long as you like it, weâll live here from now on. Old DengâŠâ
âYoung Master, please just call me Old Deng!â
âAlright, Old Deng, here it is then.â
âYes, Young Master, please wait a moment while I send someone to prepare the rooms, you may rest here for now.â
âGo ahead!â
Not long after, Deng Yunsheng brought a group of servants over, and under the guidance of a steward, they set about cleaning the place.
There wasnât much to clean really; it was more about demonstrating an attitude to Zhong Lin, fearing that he might not be pleased.
âHurry and pay your respects to the Young Master,â ordered Deng Yunsheng, and a dozen beautiful maids knelt down before Zhong Lin.
The maids were dressed like handmaidens, charming and unique in their own ways.
Zhong Lin cast a glance over these maids, all beauties, each with their characteristics.
Some were gentle, some lively, some shy, some flirtatious, some boldâŠ
There were those who were plump and thin, tall and short.
Though not national beauties, each was delicate and charming, captivating and endearing.
Zhong Lin couldnât help but reflect, truly in any world, those who control the means of production live with an unmatched feeling of pleasure.
In this world, the means of production is martial arts, the higher the grade of the Martial Artist, the more resources he can acquire, including women.
âYoung Master, these maids will be in charge of your daily life, and you can indulge in them at your leisure to relieve the heat from training. Rest assured, these women are all virgins. If youâre not satisfied, we can replace them.â
Deng Yunsheng spoke these words without hesitation, and the women on their knees didnât seem to mind, as if it was natural, with some even looking eagerly at Zhong Lin.
Zhong Lin twitched the corner of his mouth. As straightforward as it may be, hearing it stated so plainly was something he wasnât quite accustomed to.
Deng Yunsheng was not wrong; people are fundamentally influenced by blood qi, which affects desires and vitality. A Martial Artist has an abundance of qi and blood, manifesting strong desires.
After reaching the Sixth Grade Qi Blood Realm, Zhong Lin had to take cold baths every time he cultivated, both to remove sweat and suppress desires. Yet every morning he was still as firm as steel.
If not, why else would Mei Weixuan keep running to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, if not driven by excessive blood qi?
In this realm of martial arts cultivation, repression isnât a theme, as long as itâs not excessive indulgence; yin-yang harmony is a tenet of heaven and earth laws.
Upon reaching the Upper Third Grades, such physical attractions gradually diminish, with some Upper Third Grades Martial Artists even advocating abstinence to better refine essence into qi.
âNo need to change, theyâll do. Send over some Qi Blood Pills; Iâm going to train.â
âYes, Iâll handle it right away,â answered Deng Yunsheng, bowing and stepping back a few paces before turning to leave the courtyard, showcasing utmost respect.
Zhong Lin lowered his head and glanced at the kneeling maids.
âYou may rise.â
âThank you, Young Master.â
Their voices, like a chorus of birds in the forest, were pleasing to the ear.
Zhong Lin pointed to a tall, alluring maid dressed in a red skirt among the crowd.
âWhat is your name?â
This maid, despite being only seventeen or eighteen, exuded the demeanor of a mature beauty, with a tall, enticing figure.
âReporting to Young Master, this servant is named Yun Xiu.â
âFrom now on, youâll be in charge of these maids. My demand isnât much; prioritize taking good care of my younger brother. Do you understand?â
Yun Xiuâs face lit up with joy, giving a slight bow.
âThis servant understands.â
