"Hahaha, Mr. Lin, our Hangzhou city is a small place, but in Zhejiang province, there is a family named the Long family. They are the official cultivation organization of our Dragon Kingdom. If you need it, you can register an identity with the Long family."
"In the future, when facing these matters, there will be dedicated personnel to handle them."
Sensing Lin Chen's concerns, Old Meng's eyes were filled with relief.
He understood Lin Chen's meaning, which was not to bring any trouble to Hangzhou!
The other so-called cultivators always acted on their own whims and never considered the consequences, so very few people were willing to interact with the Long family.
But he never expected that Lin Chen would actually bring it up voluntarily now!
"Understood, then I'll have to find time to visit the Long family."
After receiving Old Meng's reply, Lin Chen nodded, feeling somewhat at ease.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lin, there's no need to go through so much trouble. As long as you have this intention, I can contact the Long family immediately, and they will personally come to handle the procedures for you."
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Old Master Meng spoke again.
The official circles would naturally want to win over cultivators like Lin Chen, so they would offer special treatment.
"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Old Meng. I'll be at Fifth Hospital for the next few days, and they can find me directly in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department."
After saying this, Lin Chen was finally completely relieved.
When the Ghost God Sect was still around, they had placed curses on many disciples of prominent families. Now that the Ghost God Sect had been eliminated, it was time to help those disciples detoxify.
After leaving the Meng residence, Lin Chen directly went to the hospital.
Because the previous incident had caused quite a stir, all the hospital staff now knew that Lin Chen, an assistant in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, was now one of the genuine bosses!
"Hello, Director Lin."
Upon seeing Lin Chen arrive at the hospital, the staff members greeted him respectfully.
Lin Chen, however, felt a bit helpless seeing these unfamiliar faces. He didn't even know who they were!
In his helplessness, he first went to the dean's office.
Wang Fen, Secretary to the former Dean Zhou Tianguo, was personally cleaning. Upon seeing Lin Chen enter, she quickly greeted him.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. What's wrong? Didn't Dean Zhou return with you?"
At this moment, Wang Fen was unaware of the news that the Ghost God Sect had been annihilated. She still believed that Zhou Tianguo was alive.
However, she also knew that Zhou Tianguo had taken Lin Chen to the Ghost God Sect before, indicating that he was being heavily groomed! A alchemist would surely have become an elder of the sect by now, right?
"Secretary Wang, I have a few questions for you. Answer them honestly, will you?"
Lin Chen smiled gently, not directly answering Wang Fen's inquiry.
"Yes, please ask, Mr. Lin. I will tell you everything I know and hide nothing!"
Hearing that Lin Chen had questions for her, Wang Fen did not refuse. After all, for her now, Lin Chen had definitely joined the Ghost God Sect, making him one of their own! Among their own people, there was naturally no need to deceive each other. Especially since Lin Chen in front of her was now an alchemist! If she offended him, her future days in the Ghost God Sect would likely be very difficult.
"Have you ever killed anyone before?"
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and stared directly at Wang Fen. If her answer had any flaw, or if she showed any unusual reaction, her fate would surely be death!
"Uh, Mr. Lin, I am just the secretary to the Great Elder in the secular world. I am usually responsible for managing the normal operations of the hospital and for gathering intelligence. I have never had the opportunity to kill anyone!"
Hearing Lin Chen's question and the overwhelming killing intent emanating from him, Wang Fen immediately knelt on the ground. She couldn't understand how, just three months ago, this Lin Chen was clearly an ordinary person! Yet now, merely with his killing aura, he made it difficult for her, a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining, to breathe. This was too terrifying, wasn't it?
"I see. What if I told you that the Sect Master of the Ghost God Sect had his cultivation crippled by me, and all the elders were also executed, what would you do?"
Lin Chen ignored Wang Fen, who was kneeling on the ground, and continued to ask his question.
"What? The Sect Master's cultivation was crippled by you?"
Hearing this news, Wang Fen was momentarily stunned. Good heavens, the Sect Master of the Ghost God Sect, Xiao Kui, was a genuine Core Formation stage cultivator! And Lin Chen crippled him?
"That's right. My master is Zhang Yunlong. You should know him, right?"
Lin Chen nodded and directly stated his master's name.
"I understand now. Wang Fen is willing to pledge loyalty to you!"
Upon hearing Zhang Yunlong's name, Wang Fen understood everything and immediately declared her allegiance.
"Good. You are indeed smart. Rest assured, you won't be treated unfairly if you follow me."
Seeing Wang Fen's shrewdness, Lin Chen finally understood why she could be Zhou Tianguo's secretary.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Lin!"
Receiving Lin Chen's assurance, Wang Fen immediately expressed her gratitude. Someone who could cripple Xiao Kui's cultivation must have an incredibly powerful cultivation. Following him, she would definitely achieve great success!
"By the way, Mr. Lin, these are all of Zhou Tianguo's shares in the hospital before. They will all be yours from now on."
Then, Wang Fen directly took out the equity certificates and handed them to Lin Chen.
"Mmm, continue to manage these matters. Also, notify all the disciples of prominent families who were previously cursed by the Ghost God Sect to come to the Fifth Hospital's Traditional Chinese Medicine department for treatment."
Lin Chen nodded and directly placed the equity certificates into the Nine Dragon Ring.
"Yes, Mr. Lin!"
Hearing Lin Chen's command, Wang Fen did not hesitate and went down to make arrangements. She already had a list of those disciples of prominent families who had been cursed, so handling this matter was not difficult.
Meanwhile, at the Qiu family villa.
Almost all the Qiu family members were gathered in the living room, looking worried. Because the company's ghost incident had escalated, they had no choice but to postpone the auction. However, it had been three months since the postponement. While antiques wouldn't depreciate, the rented venue incurred significant daily expenses! More importantly, due to the prolonged inability to hold the auction, many antique owners had begun to voice their dissatisfaction and wanted to withdraw their auction items. For those who brought their items for auction, they were in urgent need of money, and only now were they bringing out their treasures for auction! But now, Ru Shuang Group had kept delaying, for a full three months! Therefore, Qiu Hanying was well aware that if the auction could not be held soon, the reputation of Ru Shuang Group would likely be severely damaged. Furthermore, and most importantly, the Tiancheng Group next door had already set their sights on Hangzhou, intending to compete with them.
"Grandfather, more than ten owners of our auction items have already withdrawn their cooperation with Ru Shuang Group and have switched to cooperating with Tiancheng Group."
"If this continues, our clients will likely all leave."
Qiu Mingfei said with a hint of schadenfreude as he reported to the newly arrived Old Master Qiu.
