Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 257 Knight

"lin yujie?" both master fan and tang feiyan expressed their confusion. the former didn't know who lin yujie was, while the latter couldn't understand when lin yujie had acquired such advanced medical skills!eric and tan ailing, on the other hand, had a feeling. they both said in unison, "the spring wind and rain technique?"

"exactly." eric yun smiled and stroked his beard.

master fan was stunned. with his knowledge, he had naturally heard of the spring wind and rain technique, medicine king sect's foremost miraculous skill known for its unparalleled healing and rejuvenating effects.

it was said to be effective against poisons, illnesses, injuries, mental disorders, and more.

if that was what they were referring to, then there should be no problem treating wu yun's injuries!

but... the practice conditions for this technique were extremely harsh.

over the millennia, only a few individuals had managed to master it.

in the current era, he had not heard of any medicine king sect disciple practicing this miraculous skill.

master fan blinked his dry, small eyes and asked, seeking confirmation, "so, the current successor of the spring wind and rain technique is named 'lin yujie'?"

"that's correct."

internally, master fan cursed the intelligence agents of the thief sect for not uncovering such important information. where did all the funds go if they couldn't even find out something like this?

in truth, it wasn't entirely the fault of the thief sect's agents. even within medicine king sect, only a few members, mainly from eric yun and xiao er's direct lineage, knew that lin yujie was the current successor of the spring wind and rain technique, totaling fewer than ten individuals.

"may i ask where this lin yujie is now?"

"she's currently in seclusion, but she'll be out in a day or two!" eric yun glanced at master fan and chuckled, "rest assured, with my relationship, that girl yujie will definitely cure your disciple!"

eric yun revealed lin yujie's existence because of his friendship with wu yun. otherwise, he would never have exposed this ace in medicine king sect's arsenal, even if it meant losing face!

"ah..."

suddenly, a low groan broke the silence of the room, and everyone looked over to see that wu yun had woken up.

"master..." wu yun blinked his eyes and smiled awkwardly at master fan, about to speak, but then he saw eric standing beside him with a smile and couldn't help but be surprised. "big brother eric, what are you doing here?"

"why can't i be here?" eric smiled and said, "this is my home!"

wu yun was puzzled. he looked confused and said, "didn't you always live in shanghai?"

"you fool!" tang feiyan couldn't help but laugh at wu yun's silly look. "don't we visit our relatives?"

master fan was quite puzzled by his disciple's behavior. he was usually so clever, so why was he acting so silly now? could it be that the pain from earlier hadn't completely subsided yet?

wu yun also felt that his question was a bit strange. he laughed foolishly, looked at everyone in the room, and greeted them one by one, "hello, two sisters-in-law... eric yun..."

eric yun nodded and looked at wu yun, asking, "what happened?"

wu yun sighed and said, "i was beaten by a woman."

tang feiyan's eyes lit up, excitedly urging, "tell us more."

her expression made wu yun feel that something was off, but under her prompting, he explained, "big brother eric, do you remember zhu mingfang, the archaeologist we met on the plane to country a last time?"

"of course, i remember," eric nodded. "she's the archaeological expert from the 'chinese foundation for salvaging overseas lost cultural relics'!"

"at that time, didn't she tell you about the twelve chinese zodiac bronze heads? you even asked me to do something beneficial for the chinese nation when i had the time..."

eric nodded, "jiajun told me about it. he said you went to france to retrieve the two bronze heads lost there."

"the 'bronze dragon head', 'bronze snake head', 'bronze rooster head', and 'bronze dog head' among the twelve zodiac bronze heads are missing. only the 'bronze rat head' and 'bronze rabbit head' have been confirmed to be in the hands of one of the three major aristocratic families in france, the broumell family. so, i went there to try to reclaim these national treasures..."

"so, the one who injured you is from the broumell family?"

"yes," wu yun gritted his teeth. "the one who injured me is the head of the broumell family, count kulisenu broumell!"

"she's even a countess?" tang feiyan nodded, seemingly pondering something.

"the broumell family's ancestors were once prominent pirates in the mediterranean. later, they spent a fortune to buy the title of count from the french king louis and have been passing it down to this day..." it seemed that someone had done some re

seeing that he didn't seem to be making it up, tang feiyan stopped lecturing and asked, "what's special about the broumell family's qi?"

even eric and tan ailing showed a keen interest in this question. the former wanted to know more for his future confrontation, while the latter was purely out of a warrior's habit.

"the broumell family's qi is somewhat similar to our dark magic sect's techniques. although it advances quickly in cultivation and its power is different from other schools of qi, its drawbacks are also very obvious.

the most important one is that the practitioner's lifespan is extremely short. generally speaking, it's difficult to live past forty years old. this is also the fundamental reason why kulisenu became the head of the broumell family at such a young age!"

tang feiyan frowned slightly. "why do they still keep such a qi technique that has more disadvantages than advantages?"

"they are not unwilling, but unable!" tan ailing, coming from a prominent family, could understand the mindset of the broumell family.

"although this qi technique shortens the practitioner's lifespan, it also accelerates their growth rate, which is the foundation of the broumell family's standing..."

eric and tang feiyan both understood. the latter sighed deeply, speechless.
