After leaving Hengtian Huafu, Lv Zhong went to the Lingyin Hotel to meet with Dongfang Yunxuan and Dongfang Yunping of the Dongfang Noble Family.

They were the ones Zheng Linglong, his wife, once referred to as her great-uncle and third uncle.

Dongfang Yunxuan was blind, but Lv Zhong didn’t want to meet him.

Dongfang Yunxuan’s appearance in Yan City was merely to provide cover for Dongfang Yunping.

Dongfang Yunping lacked any talent for ancient martial arts cultivation and, as a result, embarked on a career in politics.

Although he was only 45 years old, he was already a provincial big shot, serving as the third-ranking official of Xiangnan Province.

This was extraordinarily remarkable.

Originally, Dongfang Yunping held the position of deputy governor in Lu Province.

However, after the Dongfang Family was turned into slaves by Lv Zhong, the head of the Dongfang Family, Dongfang Wudi, used his connections to reposition Dongfang Yunping as the third-ranking official in Xiangnan Province.

Despite Dongfang Yunping’s lack of natural talent in martial arts, Lv Zhong had also turned him into a slave.

This was Lv Zhong’s way of ensuring that nobody from the Dongfang Family would betray him.

The arrival of Dongfang Yunxuan and Dongfang Yunping in Yan City was specifically for Lv Zhong’s affairs.

A little over two months ago, Lv Zhong tasked the Dongfang Family with purchasing hospitals in Xiangnan province for him.

Now, they had come to report back on this matter.

“Master, the two hospitals in Yan City have been completely placed under your control.

Likewise, the one in Zhuzhou.

About Star City, you were interested in the Fourth Hospital there, however, the space was too small.

After discussing it with my brother, we decided to acquire the Provincial Tumor Hospital.

What do you think…” Dongfang Yunping cautiously spoke to Lv Zhong.

Although he was extremely close to his master in his consciousness, he also harbored a great fear towards Lv Zhong.

This man single-handedly challenged the entire Dongfang Family and turned all the high-level members of the family into his slaves.

This sort of person was truly intimidating.

Although he didn’t fancy subordinates taking the initiative, Lv Zhong was aware that ordinary people in the mundane world wouldn’t be able to resist the powerful restrictions passed down by the Plague God’s Pearl.

Hence, as long as these folks were wholeheartedly dedicated to him, he would not be too petty.

He nodded slightly, “That’s fine.

But that Provincial Tumor Hospital is a national property.

Are you guys capable of taking it over?”

“It would be impossible for ordinary people, but for us, the Dongfang Family, acquiring the Hunan Province Tumor Hospital is a piece of cake…” Dongfang Yunping boasted unusually.

He then took out a stack of documents and said, “We have already secured the hospital, Master.

It is now under your name.”

“Good job!” Lv Zhong nodded in approval.

At this moment, he had a new understanding of the Dongfang Family’s strength.

In just over two months, they had placed the ownership of four hospitals under his, Lv Zhong’s, name.

This efficiency and strength was indeed amazing.

Lv Zhong had thought it would be remarkable if the Dongfang Family could take control of these hospitals within half a year.

Hearing Lv Zhong’s approval of their proactive move to acquire the Provincial Tumor Hospital, Dongfang Yunping felt inexplicably pleased.

Grinning obsequiously at Lv Zhong, he suggested, “Master, should we acquire a few more large-scale hospitals?”

“No need,” Lv Zhong shook his head, “Greedy people can’t chew.

I only need these four hospitals for now.

If necessary, I’ll inform you in the future…”

“Understood,” Dongfang Yunping responded, then thought for a moment before continuing, “Master, the medical equipment in these hospitals is quite outdated.

Do you want us, the Dongfang Family, to purchase some of the most advanced medical equipment?”

“No need,” Lv Zhong waved his hand and declined, then after a moment of pondering, he added, “Instead, start recruiting some traditional Chinese medicine doctors for me.

Also, prepare more Chinese medicinal herbs…”

Lv Zhong had a grand idea in mind!

He intended to cultivate a group of top Chinese medicine masters for China.

Of course, it wasn’t enough to simply train these doctors, he also needed to foster a large number of pharmacists and establish large-scale medicinal fields and medicinal herb farms.

And Lv Zhong was confident he could accomplish all these.

With the advanced medical techniques handed down by the ancestors of the Lv Family, and the vast army of insects and the Plague Pearl as support, Lv Zhong was confident he could raise Chinese medicine to new heights worldwide.

Of course, he might also use these hospitals as a cover to strengthen the Soul-Devouring Worm and the Pathogenic Worm.

Both the Pathogenic Worm and the Soul-Devouring Worm possessed terrifying talents.

The stronger they become, the more powerful Lv Zhong would be.

With the Soul-Devouring Worm and the Pathogenic Worm lurking in every hospital under Lv Zhong’s name, he wouldn’t have to worry about the hospital’s secrets being discovered or about hospital security…

“Yes!” Dongfang Yunping responded respectfully.

“Also, allow these hospitals to continue operating.

When I have the time, I’ll find some directors for these hospitals…” After thinking for a while, Lv Zhong added further instructions.

The three of them discussed for over two hours in the Lingyin Hotel before dispersing.

Lv Zhong returned directly to Hengtian Huafu, Zheng Linglong’s residence.

In contrast, Dongfang Yunxuan and Dongfang Yunping didn’t arrange to meet with Zheng Linglong but headed straight to Star City.

“Brother Zhong, are you going to Star City today?” A call from Tang Lei came in right after Lv Zhong got back to Hengtian Huafu.

“How come?

You’re rushing back to Star City today?” Lv Zhong asked, surprised.

Tang Lei sounded quite triumphant, laughing on the other end of the line.

“Indeed, my dad finally agreed to let me drive to Star City this time.

Haha, we can each drive our own cars today, just thinking about it feels great.

Haha, Brother Zhong, I’ll let you witness my unmatched driving skills…”

“Unmatched driving skills?

You?” Lv Zhong derisively retorted, “Kid, don’t talk about your driving skills in front of me.

Two years ago, you drove us both into the river, boasting about your driving skills like this…”

After Lv Zhong said this, the other end of the line went silent for a moment.

Indeed, two years ago, Tang Lei had just learned to drive, driving his dad’s old Volkswagen.

On a small local road in his hometown, he was eating a melon with one hand and steering with the other.

As a result, he drove both himself and the car into a river.

“Damn, Brother Zhong, don’t you know the saying ‘one should not underestimate a familiar friend’?

Besides, two years have passed since then.

My driving skills have improved a lot…” Tang Lei bristled and retorted.

Lv Zhong couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.

He chuckled, “By the way, is Bu Yao going back to Star City with you?”

“Yes!

Yao Yao is also driving to Star City, she already made plans with Yan Yan.

Hehe, now we have three cars…” Tang Lei said excitedly.

“Haha.

I can’t go back to Star City with you today.

No matter how good your driving skills are, be careful when driving.

Don’t compete with others and don’t speed…” Lv Zhong laughingly advised him.

He then called Yan Yan to confirm that she would go to Star City with Bu Yao.

He gave her a few words of concern before hanging up.

****************************

After another night of cultivation at Hengtian Huafu, Lv Zhong bade Zheng Linglong farewell the next morning and drove straight back to Star City.

He didn’t need to worry about his family, and with the Dongfang Clan handling the hospital matters, he could set his mind at ease.

He was not in a hurry on this journey, becoming more composed in his driving, maintaining a speed of around 120.

It took him an hour and a half to reach Star City.

“Brother Feng, are you in Star City?” The moment Lv Zhong arrived in Star City, he called Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng seemed pleasantly surprised upon receiving Lv Zhong’s call.

“Haha, Little Zhong, you’re back?

I am indeed in Star City today…”

“That’s great, let’s meet up.

I’ll return your car, and I want to buy a car, I hope you can take me to have a look…” Lv Zhong didn’t beat around the bush and stated his intention clearly.

“Little Zhong, what car do you want to buy?

My car is all yours.” Cheng Feng offered generously, seeming ready to splash out.

Lv Zhong shook his head and chuckled: “No need, I want to buy one myself.

This is my first time buying a car, it feels different.

I want to cherish this feeling, hehe…”

“Alright then…” Cheng Feng understood Lv Zhong’s character – his words were absolute.

He didn’t insist any further, saying, “Drive to the entrance of Xiangnan Normal University, I’ll wait for you there…”

“Okay!” Lv Zhong hung up and quickly drove to Xiangnan Normal University.

After nearly twenty minutes, Lv Zhong arrived at Xiangnan Normal University and immediately spotted the immense figure of Cheng Feng.

“Little Zhong, over here…” Cheng Feng also noticed Lv Zhong and quickly waved at him.

“Haha, Brother Feng, you seem to have gained weight in the past few days…” Lv Zhong laughed heartily as he got out of the car and went to greet Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng was forthright and open-minded, even more so than Tang Lei.

For this reason, Lv Zhong could joke with him without fearing that he would take offense.

“Ah, I’ve really let myself go.

I seem to gain weight even just from drinking water.” Cheng Feng sounded quite downcast.

Lv Zhong gave Cheng Feng’s shoulder a few comforting pats.

“Brother Feng, let’s go car shopping today.

Once we get back to my apartment, I’ll help you lose weight.

You won’t have to worry about your weight problem ever again…”

“Haha, thank you so much.

I’ve been looking forward to this day for long enough.” Cheng Feng was overjoyed, his ample flesh jiggling with excitement.

Handing him the car keys, Lv Zhong said with a laugh, “Brother Feng, I’m not familiar with the roads in Star City.

You lead the way to the car dealership, haha…”

Cheng Feng didn’t waste any time.

He deftly took the car keys and quickly got into the driver’s seat, shouting to Lv Zhong, “Little Zhong, get in.

I’ll show you some great cars today and expand your horizons.”

Just as he was saying this, Cheng Feng looked at Lv Zhong oddly, asking, “By the way, Little Zhong, what type of car are you looking to buy?

A real off-roader?

A sports car?

Or a city SUV?”

Lv Zhong thought for a moment, replying, “The roads are pretty good these days, with cement and asphalt surfaces.

An SUV should do.” (To be continued.
