Longevity Begins with Internal Organs-Chapter 347 - 222: Lung Unlocking Successful, Acquired Talent: Hua Gai Siqing_2
"What is Yun Yuan to you?" Zhao Ya continued to ask without answering.
"Yun Yuan? Do you know my cousin?" Yun Jin finally felt a hint of surprise.
"I guess I know him. My name is Zhao Ya, if you ask your cousin, he should know."
Zhao Ya...
Hearing this name, Yun Jin was first taken aback and then looked at Zhao Ya with complete incredulity.
"You...you are Zhao Ya?"
"Why? You know me?"
"Of course I know you."
Yun Jin became excited, her eyes full of curiosity and admiration.
In fact, Zhao Ya did not know that Yun Jin and Yun Yuan had a very good relationship.
Though they were not siblings by blood, in some ways they were closer than real siblings.
Moreover, although Yun Jin was young, she was quite perceptive about adult matters.
As a result, she was very hostile toward Yun Hao, Yun Yuan’s younger half-brother.
This time when Yun Yuan went to their grandfather’s house in Linhai County to seek assistance, and was ambushed on the way back, Yun Jin naturally knew about it.
It made her so angry she could almost explode, and she found an excuse to give Yun Hao a good scolding.
Yun Hao didn’t dare provoke her and had to listen obediently.
But that’s all she could do.
Because her grandfather clearly stated not to pursue the matter further, and for this, no one else in the Yun Family dared to express their stance.
Though Yun Jin was pampered and felt deeply indignant for Yun Yuan, she could only swallow her anger reluctantly.
However, during this time, she had heard her brother Yun Yuan mention Zhao Ya’s name more than once.
Upon asking in detail, Yun Jin found out that the reason Yun Yuan survived the Four Seas Gang’s ambush was entirely thanks to this Young Hero Zhao Ya.
And, according to Yun Yuan’s account, Young Hero Zhao Ya was practically a deity.
Although he was young, his strength was exceptionally high.
Thus, Yun Jin etched his name in her memory deeply and was filled with curiosity about Zhao Ya, planning to accompany her brother next time he went to see Zhao Ya.
But she didn’t expect to run into him here today.
"My brother has mentioned you more than once, saying that you are the strongest young hero in the city right now, bar none."
Yun Jin was very excited and turned to Xia Yuping, who was at a loss.
"After all this, the fraud you wanted me to expose is him. Let me tell you, he’s not a fraud; he’s my brother’s savior, and very awesome."
This statement caused a stir in the crowd.
Xia Hongyu looked at her cousin incredulously and reprimanded sternly.
"Yuping, how could you do such a thing?"
Xia Hongyu usually spoke softly, but today she was uncharacteristically angry.
Xia Yuping, ashamed, wished she could find a hole to hide in and said in a low voice, "I... I just wanted to see if this person was deceiving you, I meant no harm."
"You ... " Xia Hongyu was almost brought to tears by anger.
Fortunately, Zhao Ya said at this time, "Okay Hongyu, your cousin meant no harm, she just wanted someone to clarify, there’s no need for this."
Then Zhao Ya turned to Yun Jin, "Is your brother at home?"
"He is!"
"Great, I actually have something to discuss with him, can you take me to see him?"
"No problem, my brother just mentioned yesterday he was going to look for you." Yun Jin replied happily.
Zhao Ya nodded upon hearing this, then cupped his fists toward Xia Chunlan and Xia Feiying.
"Mrs. Xia, sir, I have some matters today, so I won’t stay any longer, goodbye."
"Ya, how can you just leave like this, at least stay for lunch!" Xia Feiying tried to persuade him to stay.
Zhao Ya simply smiled, "No, I do have something today, another day then!"
Saying this, he turned and left.
Watching his back, Xia Hongyu felt even sadder.
She had spent half the day grooming herself for this meeting today, only to have it all ruined by Xia Yuping’s self-serving actions.
At this thought, she wished she could curse Xia Yuping thoroughly.
But now, no words could remedy it.
She could only stand there silently, tears streaming down her face.
At this moment, she heard Xia Chunlan sigh, "Silly child, what’s the use of crying now, why not quickly catch up and explain?"
Xia Hongyu was taken aback, "Aunt..."
"Go on, do what you feel is right, don’t leave yourself with regrets," Xia Chunlan advised.
"Mm!"
Xia Hongyu nodded emphatically, then ran out quickly.
"Wait!"
At the second gate, Zhao Ya heard a voice calling from behind and couldn’t help but stop and turn around.
"Miss Hongyu, is there anything else?"
Xia Hongyu ran up, wiped the tears from her face, and, choked with emotion, said, "I’m... I’m sorry, it’s my fault, I let you be wronged."
Zhao Ya smiled freely.
In fact, he didn’t really take this to heart.
Xia Yuping’s thoughts weren’t entirely wrong, if he really were a fraud, wouldn’t that have been trouble?
He was just fed up with such trivial matters and intended to withdraw from it as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, this sensitive girl overthought it.
"Silly girl, don’t take it to heart, how am I wronged? I really do have something to discuss with her brother, I’ll come to find you in a couple of days." Zhao Ya reassured her.
"Rea... really?" Xia Hongyu wiped her tears, full of disbelief.
Zhao Ya smiled, "Of course it’s true, when have I lied to you?"
"Mm-mm, then I’ll wait for you, you must come."
"Okay!"
Zhao Ya turned and left.
Xia Hongyu gazed lovingly at his retreating figure, and it was a long time before she heard a sigh from behind.
"I had tried my best to overestimate him, but he turned out to be even more remarkable than I imagined."
The events just now had revealed many things to Xia Feiying.
For example, it was very likely that the crisis in which Yun Yuan escaped death had something to do with Zhao Ya.
With all these factors combined, Xia Feiying couldn’t help but be filled with admiration.
Xia Hongyu said nothing, but after a moment, she whispered, "Grandfather!"
"I want to move out!"
Xia Feiying was taken aback, then he nodded, "Okay, I’ll arrange it."
Previously, Xia Hongyu had always felt that this was her home, but now she no longer thought so.
The Liang Garden is beautiful, but not a place to stay long.
Although her aunt was very good to her, not everyone shared the same sentiment.
Like Xia Yuping.
The things she did today, Xia Hongyu would never forgive.
So each person must have their own home.
While the Xia family was in an uproar because of this event, Zhao Ya had already followed Yun Jin to the Yun Family and met Yun Yuan.
Yun Yuan was surprised by Zhao Ya’s sudden appearance with his sister.
But he soon regained his composure.
"You came at the right time, this is what I’ve found during this time, that’s all." He said, handing over a box with more than thirty pieces of Black Flood Dragon Dried Meat inside.
Zhao Ya took it without fuss and asked, "How much?"
"What’s all this talk about money? Haven’t we already agreed? I provide the dried meat, and you help me out at critical moments," Yun Yuan said.
Zhao Ya didn’t insist further. After packing the dried meat, he looked at Yun Yuan somewhat curiously.
"Your condition doesn’t seem very good."
Yun Yuan smiled bitterly, "My father has not eaten or drunk anything for three days. He’s likely passing in the next couple of days, how could I be in a good state?"
A gleam of light flashed in Zhao Ya’s eyes.
Yun Yuan’s father had long been gravely ill but had stubbornly held on until now.
But from Yun Yuan’s tone, it seemed it would be in the next couple of days.
And once Yun Yuan’s father passed away, a power struggle was sure to follow.
Zhao Ya said nothing, only clapping Yun Yuan on the shoulder.
"Call me if you need anything."
"Okay!"
Then Zhao Ya smiled at Yun Jin, "Thank you, young lady, for guiding me."
"You’re welcome. Come play with my brother often," Yun Jin said with a bright smile.
Zhao Ya turned and left.
Now that he had the dried meat, he didn’t want to delay for even a moment; he only wished to fully unlock his lung.
So when he got home, Zhao Ya cast aside all distractions and immersed himself in training without food or rest.
It must be said that with ample resources of flesh and blood, Zhao Ya’s progress in unlocking his organs was indeed rapid.
Just three days later, after finishing the Eight Vajra Longevity Skill, his body quivered slightly, and a prompt emerged before his eyes.
