The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine-Chapter 401 - : People of the Ying Family

Chapter 401: Chapter 401: People of the Ying Family

Members of the Sun Family were entering the hotel lobby one after another. Huang Xiaolong and Sun Wei entered arm in arm. However, Huang Xiaolong hadn’t told Sun Wei that the hotel was unclean.

Upon entering the lobby, a cold breeze blew through, causing goosebumps to rise on people’s skin.

“Little Long…This hotel really keeps its air conditioning high,” Sun Wei said, pulling her scarf tighter.

Huang Xiaolong merely smiled without making a sound.

As a second generation member of the Sun Family went to the front desk to check in, Huang Xiaolong also joined him.

The front desk clerks shared a single characteristic – their brows lacked light, a sign of impending disaster. In other words, they’d had prolonged contact with dirty things and were cloaked in a miasma of negative energy.

In actuality, before the Sun Family came to Jiangnan City, they had already booked rooms at ‘Carnival Hotel’, now they’re just collecting their room keys.

“Master Long, the rooms we have booked this time are on the 28th floor, which also is the top floor. Staying on top gives us a great view, but what do you think?” The second-generation member of the Sun family asked, with a hint of politeness towards Huang Xiaolong.

However…

“The top floor is the 28th floor?” Huang Xiaolong was taken aback.

Before entering the hotel, Huang Xiaolong had counted and this five-star hotel clearly had 29 floors.

“Indeed, Sir, the highest floor of Carnival Hotel is the 28th floor,” a front desk clerk said, offering Huang Xiaolong a gentle, professional smile.

“Oh…” Huang Xiaolong nodded, not saying more.

It seemed that the 29th floor of this hotel was cloaked from the guests, even the hotel staff believed there were only 28 floors.

‘The hotel’s 29th floor definitely has a major issue.’

“Sir, do you have any other questions?” the front desk clerk laughed.

“Oh, no more questions,” Huang Xiaolong responded with a smile. He then glanced at the other front desk clerks and asked, “You all take night shifts, right?”

“Yes Sir, we take turns on night shifts,” the desk clerk replied with a smile.

“During your night shifts, do you find yourselves incredibly sleepy once it’s past midnight, no matter how hard you try to stay awake?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a smile.

The clerks heard Huang Xiaolong’s question and replied in unison, “Yes, how did you know?”

Huang Xiaolong nodded. “Just curious. However, remember to try not to doze off at night. If you hear a stranger calling your names, do not look around or turn around.”

Huang Xiaolong took a room key from the second-generation member of the Sun Family. “Because one of the three flames on your bodies has already gone out.”

The front desk clerks were stunned into silence.

Huang Xiaolong’s room.

Huang Xiaolong was staying in a room by himself, the room was spacious and extravagantly decorated. The night view of Jiangnan City could be seen from the floor-to-ceiling windows. However, it felt as if something was hidden in the room, watching him.

“Ah.. There is something wrong with the 29th floor of this hotel. I’ll have a look tonight and get rid of the ghost,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.

Knock~~ Knock~~ Knock~~

There came a knock at the door.

Huang Xiaolong walked over to open the door.

Sun Wei rushed into the room, clearly excited about something.

As Huang Xiaolong closed the door, he smoothly wrapped his arms around Sun Wei.

“Sister Bai Hu, why don’t you just sleep in my room tonight?” Huang Xiaolong’s hand roamed around Sun Wei’s delicate body.

“Little Long, stop teasing… I have something important to tell you,” Sun Wei said, her body trembling with laughter due to Huang Xiaolong’s touch.

“What is it? Are we going to practice boxing now?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.

“Boxing? No.” Sun Wei quickly grabbed Huang Xiaolong’s hand. “Little Long, our Sun Family came early to pay respects to the influential figures and officials of Jiangnan City.”

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

Desperate though the Sun Family might be a martial arts family, they were mostly into business now. They ran several martial arts clubs in Jiangnan City, making a neat profit of millions each year.

Being in business meant they had to interact with the officials of the city.

Huang Xiaolong showed little interest in this aspect, preferring to enjoy the city before the upcoming boxing competition.

“Oh… Sister Bai Hu, so you’re going to visit the local officials of Jianngan City? Then you go ahead, I’ll sit this one out,” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

“Little Long! You’re not going? You’re going to regret it if you don’t go this time!” Sun Wei said, her eyes shinning, “A few of our uncles got the news that Miss Ying Aoshan of the Ying Family is currently in Green Willow Manor! Not many people know this yet. Let’s rush over to see Miss Ying Aoshan!”

Ying Aoshan?

Huang Xiaolong had heard Old Master Sun mentioning that the Ying Family was one of the top ten ancient martial art families in Huaxia, also the organizer of the Jiangnan City Boxing Competition.

In plain terms, the Ying family was the referee for the boxing competition.

Now that they had news of a member of the Ying family, families like the Sun Family who were participating in the boxing competition wouldn’t resist the chance to make a good impression. If they could somehow manage to forge some connection with the Ying family, it could greatly benefit them in the upcoming boxing competition.

Besides, the Ying family was an ancient martial art family with a lineage dating back to the Qin Dynasty. Being able to catch a glimpse of the stature of a member of the Ying Family was considered a significant event and even a pilgrimage for martial art families like the Sun Family!

Seeing that it was a member of one of the top ten martial arts families, Huang Xiaolong naturally took an interest.

“Alright then, Sister Bai Hu. Are we going now? I’ll accompany you,” he said with a cheeky smile. “Ying Aoshan? Is she pretty?”

“Er… pretty? That… should be pretty,” Sun Wei hesitated before answering. “A few uncles said that Miss Ying Aoshan is very mysterious and obsessed with music. She likes to make friends through music. However… she never shows her true face, unless someone has moved her with music. Only then would they have the privilege to meet her in person, and see what she looks like. However, it is said that no one has ever seen her before.”

“Wow, how complicated… Perhaps she’s a not so good-looking lady who doesn’t dare to show her face, that’s why all these made up requirements.” Huang Xiaolong laughed scornfully. “If she’s as beautiful as my Sister Bai Hu, why would she hide from anyone? Wouldn’t she want the world to appreciate her beauty?”

“Pfft~~ Little Long, you sure know how to flatter. But how can I be compared to Miss Ying Aoshan? She is a member of the Ying family! An ancient family that has been passed down for thousands of years, with numerous martial arts grandmasters. I also heard a rumor that Miss Ying Aoshan is one of the judges for this year’s boxing competition.”

“Alright, Sister Bai Hu, are you really curious about what Ying Aoshan looks like? Then I will satisfy your curiosity today. Let’s see if she is a beauty or not,” Huang Xiaolong laughed heartily.
