Xiao Yu's words. This news was like a bombshell for them, causing them to stand rooted on the basketball court.The middle-aged man’s face showed hatred; back then Wang Yuanping favored Zhao Lingyun ov...Chapter 449: Invite Xiao Yu Again
"What Blood calamity Then... then I won't go! Is that okay" Jin Xianglin's expression changed drastically upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, and he exclaimed anxiously.
In Jin Xianglin’s eyes, Xiao Yu was truly a remarkable figure, even more so than Master Zhang and Li Shiqing in his heart. Therefore, when Xiao Yu mentioned that there would be blood calamity if he went to the Treasure Island this time, he immediately believed him without hesitation.
Xiao Yu thought for a moment before shaking his head and said, "If you don’t go, even greater disasters might occur. So, if one's fate has a disaster awaiting, it needs to be faced rather than avoided; otherwise, the calamity may accumulate deeper until it becomes irreversible!"
Previously, when Xiao Yu was speaking with Jin Xianglin, he suddenly noticed a black line vertically aligned on his forehead. He hesitated for a moment but then used his sharp five senses to see that this black line was actually red.
Seeing it was red made Xiao Yu feel slightly relieved because if the line had been black, it would have represented death energy with a risk of life-threatening danger in recent days. However, if it was red, it indicated that there would be blood calamity recently.
Moreover, considering the severity of Jin Xianglin's impending blood calamity wouldn’t lead to fatal consequences, Xiao Yu had drawn him an Evil-Dispelling Talisman back at his villa which could prevent evil energy from invading. With this talisman, he would likely be able to avoid the blood calamity.
After finishing speaking, Xiao Yu drove off into the distance. One's life destiny can only change its minor trends but not its major trends; Jin Xianglin’s impending blood calamity was destined to occur, yet if prepared adequately or if his luck is favorable, it would be reduced in severity, or even avoided without incident.
Jin Xianglin watched Xiao Yu drive off and carefully kept the talisman given by him close at hand. Although he didn’t know what this talisman was for, he knew of Xiao Yu's mysterious abilities, so this talisman must also be extraordinary. Thinking about it made him somewhat uneasy again, causing him to turn around and head home; originally intending to leave but having heard Xiao Yu’s words meant he now had to make some prior arrangements.
The talisman given by Xiao Yu was a common Evil-Dispelling Talisman; when someone encounters such calamities or disasters, it is often due to evil energy temporarily clouding their mind and causing them to lose control over themselves. Some people interpret this as being fated, though that isn't entirely accurate.
With such fate-bound events, if there are external measures taken or the individual has a strong destiny, even when encountering calamities they would turn danger into safety; however, without such a robust destiny, one often faces various disasters.
This explains why some people can narrowly avoid car accidents happening right beside them while others might choke to death on a sip of cold water. All these are due to the influence of evil energy.
When he is destined to encounter misfortune, it is the time when he is most susceptible to invasion by malevolent forces. If his constitution is strong and his vital energy旺盛，他就能抵抗住邪氣的侵襲；否則，邪氣就會成功入侵他的身體，從而引發一些意想不到的事情。
Upon having breakfast at a nearby eatery, Xiao Yu drove toward the Wan Sheng Hall.
When he arrived at the Wan Sheng Hall before eight o'clock, the doors were already open. Yuan Chao was inside tidying up and greeted him as soon as he saw him arrive.
Yuan Chao had followed Xiao Hongyang for several years with the intention of one day becoming his disciple to learn authentic medical skills. However, when Xiao Hongyang came to the deep sea city, he left Yuan Chao in Beijing, which made him very unhappy for a period of time.
Although the salary offered by the Yue family was decent, just dispensing medicine did not offer any prospects. Therefore, while contemplating quitting his job, Xiao Hongyang called and asked him to come to the deep sea city.
Though he wasn't very familiar with the deep sea city, he didn't hesitate to set off for it because following Xiao Hongyang was his only chance at hope. Otherwise, it would take several years before any other doctor might consider taking him on as an apprentice, and even then there were no guarantees.
On the night of his arrival, Xiao Hongyang explained to him about becoming a disciple and expressed his intention to accept Yuan Chao as one, provided he performed well since Xiao Yu's opinion was crucial.
Hence, from the second day onwards, he would open the doors early in the morning and start tidying up, hoping to leave a good impression on Xiao Yu.
"Doctor Xiao, you're here!" Upon seeing Xiao Yu come in, Yuan Chao hurriedly walked over to greet him.
“Mm. Yuan Chao, stop cleaning, I can take care of it myself, go and have breakfast!” Xiao Yu nodded and said.
Yuan Chao tried to refuse but seeing that he couldn't, he put down the things and left. There were many breakfast stalls in the alley west of the antique market, making it very convenient to eat breakfast.
"Master, so early!"
"Doctor Xiao..."
"Good morning, Doctor Xiao…
At 8:30 AM, when Xiao Hongyang and the others arrived at Wan Sheng Tang, they saw Xiao Yu already sitting there. They greeted him one by one.
Xiao Yu nodded to each of them in acknowledgment. Seeing that cashier Zhang Hui and accountant Li Qing had cleaned up the counter, he took out a check and said, "Li Qing, please take this check to the bank and deposit it into our clinic's account!"
"Yes, Dr. Xiao!" Sitting at the counter, Li Qing hurried over when she heard what Xiao Yu said, taking the check from his hand.
As soon as she glanced at the check, her heart skipped a beat. Although she hadn't yet seen how much it was for, the string of zeros on it made her blink in surprise. After taking another look, she saw that it was for one million yuan. Her heart pounded rapidly; she couldn’t believe such a small clinic could have such large income. She had never handled finances of this amount before.
After returning to the counter and tidying up, Li Qing walked out to take the check to the bank. It wasn't far from the antique market, so it was convenient for her to go.
In the morning, only a few people came in to see a doctor, so they had a relatively quiet time.
After lunch one afternoon, when Xiao Yu and the others were resting after eating, a thirty-something young man walked into their clinic. Seeing Xiao Yu sitting there, he immediately looked delighted.
"Dr. Xiao, you've returned! Our boss wants to invite you for an outpatient consultation; we can discuss your fees."
Xiao Yu was just looking at the man when Xiao Hongyang walked over and whispered something into his ear.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu glanced at the man. He recognized him as the subordinate of the CEO of Dingtian Group who had come every day recently, but since Xiao Yu hadn't been present, he was delayed in coming forward with an invitation.
Xiao Yu naturally knew Manager Wang; these small thugs that caused trouble here were hired by Dingtian Group. Although they didn't know exactly who was behind it, they definitely worked for the company. Zhang Dahan had learned from those low-level gangsters that their leader had close ties with Dingtian Group, but as the bottom rung of society's underworld, these thugs knew little about what went on at higher levels.
When they came to smash up Xiao Yu’s clinic, they didn't know anything except for being told by their boss to receive one ten-thousand-yuan payment and to destroy Wan Sheng Tang. They hadn’t even managed to cause any damage before getting beaten by Xiao Yu's group and locked up in a military base.
After Zhang Dahan informed Xiao Yu about the situation of these small gangsters, he wanted to arrest their leader but was stopped by Xiao Yu.
With this knowledge, Xiao Yu knew who was behind the mischief. He had his own ways of dealing with those who masterminded such schemes, so he didn't ask Zhang Dahan to take action.
"Haha, Manager Wang! Our rules are clear, so there's no need for lengthy explanations. As for this consultation fee We've raised it to ten thousand yuan. Please consider!" Xiao Yu chuckled and said to the manager.
"Wasn't it just one thousand last time" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Manager Wang's expression changed abruptly as he blurted out. In his view, Xiao Yu was taking advantage of their difficult situation.
"Things change. In short, no consultation unless you pay ten thousand!" Xiao Yu waved dismissively and said without caring about what the manager had to say.
The middle-aged Manager Wang, after hearing Xiao Yu's words, pondered for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "Alright then, ten thousand it is. Dr. Xiao, please proceed."
Xiao Yu observed that Manager Wang agreed without consulting anyone about the hefty consultation fee, indicating the urgency of the illness of the top executive at Dingtian Group.
"Please go to that counter over there and pay first," said Xiao Yu as he pointed towards the counter where the two women were stationed.
Manager Wang's face darkened upon hearing this. He glanced at Xiao Yu before turning around and heading toward the counter.
A short while later, Manager Wang had completed his payment and returned to say to Xiao Yu, "Dr. Xiao, please come in."
Xiao Yu didn't speak when he saw that Manager Wang had paid up. He tidied his medical bag and gave some instructions to Xiao Hongyang before heading out with Manager Wang.
Xiao Yu followed Manager Wang's car downtown.
In no time, they arrived at the same residential area where Xiao Yu was last. Following Manager Wang, he entered a villa in the complex.
The living room of the villa had quite a few people present, ranging from elderly to younger individuals, but none were talking much. Accompanied by Manager Wang, Xiao Yu went straight up to the second floor.
On the second floor was still the same room where Xiao Yu and his companions had been last time. Several doctors in white coats were busy attending to a patient lying on the bed in the room.artial arts sparring on TV but now it would happen in real life. So without thinking about eating anymore, he pulled Xiao Yu downstairs.When they reached the first floor, the middle-aged man had alrea...
