Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2174: Chapter 2173: The Coming Storm

Tonight, the Capital City is quite calm.

The Lin Family from the Capital City, the Old Patriarch of Lin Family hasn’t left the house these two days, seemingly not arranging anything either.

She just let Qiao Xue accompany her the whole time.

In the past two days, Qiao Xue tried to contact Qiao Bing, but couldn’t reach her. However, she wasn’t suspicious.

She just thought Qiao Bing simply didn’t see the message.

She kept accompanying the Old Patriarch of Lin Family and will leave early in the morning to the villa for makeup and preparation.

Then they will pick up the bride and head to Jingdu Cathedral for the wedding.

As for Lin Tiance, he has also been staying at the Lin Family from the Capital City these days, not going out much.

Knowing that Lin Dong isn’t dead made him somewhat apprehensive.

He’s afraid that Lin Dong is hiding in the dark in the Capital City, worried that he might get secretly killed by Lin Dong if he goes out.

The whereabouts of Lin Sumei, Lin Tiance is unaware of.

He just heard from his grandma, the Old Patriarch of Lin Family, that he is currently in the Capital City but hiding somewhere.

Tomorrow, he will head to guard the district around Jingdu Cathedral.

The past two days, the Lin Family from the Capital City hasn’t mobilized anyone, so neither in Demon City nor in Southern Capital have Lin Dong’s subordinates encountered any attacks.

Everything seems extremely calm.

Lin Dong himself has re-assumed the identity of ’Dong Lin’ and returned to the Hidden Qin Clan in the Capital City.

After returning to the Qin house, he met Qin Yitian.

As soon as Qin Yitian saw him, she whispered, ”Dong Lin, come to the room for a bit.”

Lin Dong nodded, following her into the room.

Then Qin Yitian said, ”Do you know about the matter with King Kunlun?”

Lin Dong nodded, then asked, ”Has the Patriarch gone out these days?”

Qin Yitian shook her head and said, ”The whereabouts of the Patriarch are unknown to me. But yesterday, he came looking for you. Seems like he had something to tell you.”

”I told him you had gone out. He didn’t suspect anything, just asked for you to visit him once you return.”

Lin Dong’s expression changed slightly, nodding, ”Where should I go to find him?”

”Go to the Patriarch’s courtyard,” Qin Yitian said worriedly.

”Okay.” Lin Dong left there and headed for the Qin Family Patriarch’s courtyard.

Since he had been there before, he easily found his way to the Qin Family Patriarch’s courtyard.

The Qin Family Patriarch, just as usual, sat in the courtyard amusing himself with the fledgling hawk on his shoulder.

Seeing Lin Dong arrive, he said, ”You have returned?”

Lin Dong nodded in acknowledgment, ”Yes, Patriarch, I heard from Yitian that you were looking for me. I wonder what instructions you have for me.”

The Qin Family Patriarch glanced up at the sky, ”The wind is rising, it’s going to rain.”

After saying this somewhat odd sentence, he then asked:

”Where have you been these days? I’ve heard you weren’t at the Qin house these past days.”

As he spoke, his gaze was fixed intently on Lin Dong.

Lin Dong appeared very relaxed, saying, ”These past days, I’ve been out of town. Searching for my origins.”

”Oh?” Hearing this, the Qin Family Patriarch asked, ”Your origins?”

”Yes, Patriarch, I’ve been an orphan since childhood. But I want to find my parents, want to know where I come from.”

”This time returning to Dragon Country, aside from matters concerning Yitian, I also have a personal agenda, which is to find my biological parents.”

Lin Dong lied.

He spoke these lies without any hint of redness in his face or ears, making it impossible for anyone to tell whether it’s true or false.

Even the Qin Family Patriarch, a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, couldn’t discern if Lin Dong was telling the truth or lying.

But the Qin Family Patriarch didn’t bother with these things, never associating Lin Dong’s identity with that of ’Master Lin’.

Because he has great confidence in his own strength!

He believes that with the strength of ’Master Lin’, a Ninth Stage Grandmaster, it’s impossible to hide the true strength in front of him. The ’Dong Lin’ he sees is merely a genuine First Stage Grandmaster Martial Artist.

He doesn’t believe a Ninth Stage Grandmaster Martial Artist can hide his strength in front of him.

Nor does he believe anyone can deceive his detection as a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist with a disguise technique.

Yet he had no idea that Lin Dong had cultivated the ’Change the Aspect of Heaven Technique’. And his current strength isn’t just that of a Ninth Stage Grandmaster, but a Tenth Stage Grandmaster.

If Lin Dong hadn’t cultivated the ’Change the Aspect of Heaven Technique’ in the Hidden Dragon Cave, if it were still the same disguise technique from Southborne, by now, his identity would have been exposed.

”The reason I called you over is because regarding tomorrow, as you attend Lin Tiance’s wedding, there are a few things I need to instruct you on,” the Qin Family Patriarch finally spoke of the main business.

Lin Dong hurriedly said, ”Please, Patriarch, do tell.”

The Qin Family Patriarch said, ”Tomorrow at Lin Tiance’s wedding, some major events are expected. You have to be careful.”

”Besides, do not easily interfere in their matters. Otherwise, it might lead to trouble.”

Lin Dong feigned surprise and asked, ”Patriarch, what do you mean? At Lin Tiance’s wedding, is someone going to abduct the bride?”

The Qin Family Patriarch laughed and said, ”No, it’s not an abduction, just someone planning to create chaos. And that person’s strength is not weak.”

”Oh? Who dares to create chaos at the Lin Family’s stronghold in the Capital City?” Lin Dong continued to ask deliberately.

The Qin Family Patriarch kept it a mystery: ”You will find out by then.”

”To ensure your safety, at that time, I’ll assign a Ninth Stage Grandmaster to accompany you.”

”With him around, he will protect you and Yitian!”

At this moment, an old man appeared in the courtyard. The old man bore a sword on his back and exuded an extraordinary aura.

Lin Dong recognized him.

It was Sword Twelve.

He used to follow Lin Tiance everywhere; originally a member of the Qin Family, arranged by the Qin Family Patriarch to always accompany Lin Tiance, protecting him while he was out.

Now, with Lin Tiance in closed-door cultivation, trying to break into the ranks of the Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, he rejoined the Qin Family Patriarch, awaiting his orders.

This time, the Qin Family Patriarch plans to let him accompany Lin Dong and Qin Yitian to attend Lin Tiance’s wedding.

To protect the two of them!

”Thank you, Patriarch.” Lin Dong put on an expression of joy, thanking the Qin Family Patriarch.

The Qin Family Patriarch nodded, then glanced at the sky again; at that moment, a thunder echoed in the sky.

”Boom～～” After the thunder, it appeared as though it was about to rain.

”The storm is imminent,” the Qin Family Patriarch murmured softly.

Lin Dong also couldn’t help but look up at the sky, seeing the night sky shrouded in clouds, the gale surging, and lightning streaking through from time to time.

It was the prelude to the coming of a storm!

At this moment, Lin Dong also said his farewells:

”Then, Patriarch, I shall take my leave.”

”Go ahead.” The Qin Family Patriarch waved his hand.

As Lin Dong left, the Qin Family Patriarch spoke again, this time to Sword Twelve:

”Sword Twelve, when you attend the Lin Family wedding tomorrow, firstly, protect Dong Lin and Yitian’s safety.”

”Secondly, be prepared to obey the Old Patriarch of Lin Family’s command and join the attack on someone.”

Sword Twelve asked with some doubt, ”Dare I ask, Patriarch, who dares to be so presumptuous at Lin Family’s wedding tomorrow?”

The Qin Family Patriarch slowly replied, ”Tomorrow’s wedding at the Lin Family, a good show is to be expected.”

”Lin Dong is not dead,” the Qin Family Patriarch stated, ”and tomorrow, he will be there at the wedding. Moreover, he will head to the Lin Family from the Capital City. Tomorrow, the Capital City will truly witness a good show.”

Sword Twelve, unable to resist, looked up at the sky, secretly thinking,

”The storm is truly about to arrive...”
