Chapter 2311 Giving Birth to a Son

Since it was money delivered to his doorstep, there was no reason to refuse it, especially since it was ill-gotten gains. Ye Bufan reached out and took the ring.

His Divine Sense swept through it, and the High-Grade Spirit Stones inside were like small mountains, totaling three to four hundred thousand. It seemed this guy had indeed extorted quite a bit.

Zhao Lin knelt nearby, his heart bleeding from the pain, but he dared not utter a single word.

He had been busy for over half a year, extorting more than a dozen people, just to gather this many High-Grade Spirit Stones. In the end, it was all for naught; someone else took it all.

"Divine Doctor Ye, if there's nothing else, I'll take this little beast back now!"

Zhao Huiying finished speaking, cupped his hands to Ye Bufan, then reached out, grabbed Zhao Lin's collar, and turned to leave.

With them gone, there was no need for the others to stay, so they gradually dispersed.

Two constables emerged from a corner, cleaned up the Young Master's corpse, and soon the place returned to its previous state.

Ye Bufan had essentially gained a storefront for free and made a small fortune. Next, he began making arrangements for the Ancient Medical Sect's grand opening.

At the Zhao Family, Zhao Huiying kicked open the door and walked in, startling everyone inside.

Especially upon seeing the large handprint on Zhao Lin's Face, everyone was extremely surprised.

These people were well aware of the Da Shao's status in the Zhao Family; normally, let alone hitting him, he wasn't even reprimanded.

He did whatever he pleased, practically lawless, and would never be punished no matter how serious his mistakes. How could he have been beaten like this today?

Furthermore, there was Zhao Huiying's attitude. He was usually the one who doted on this Da Shao the most, so why was his Face so gloomy and seemingly furious today?

However, these people were intimidated by the Grand Manager's authority and only dared to think about it in their hearts, not daring to show any expression.

"Big Brother, what's wrong?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walked out, but he wore an eye patch, having only one eye.

It was Zhao Huizhi, the Zhao Family Patriarch, Zhao Huiying's younger brother.

He understood his Big Brother's temper perfectly; he had a strong sense of Family and usually doted on his son immensely. Why was he like this today?

"Take this little beast away and confine him for three months. He is not allowed to step out of his room without my permission."

Zhao Huiying directly threw Zhao Lin to the nearby butler.

Ye Bufan was said to be staying in the Royal City for two months. During this time, Zhao Lin could not be allowed to cause trouble again, or the next time it might not be so easy to handle.

"Let's talk inside!"

Then, he led the way into the study, with Zhao Huizhi following, utterly bewildered.

"Big Brother, what exactly happened? What mistake did Lin'er make?"

"This little beast almost brought a great disaster upon our Zhao Family…"

Zhao Huiying recounted everything that happened today from beginning to end, finally saying, "Remember this: he must remain in seclusion for three months this time.

He is absolutely not allowed to leave without my permission."

Zhao Huizhi grew even more confused. For the Zhao Family, such a matter was nothing at all.

"Big Brother, he's just a small doctor from out of town. Is it necessary for you to be so angry?"

"Small doctor? What the hell do you know!"

Zhao Huiying then recounted Ye Bufan's medical duel with Tianqiong Medical Saint, "He can even suppress Ge Yangming. You call him a small doctor?

In terms of Medical skill, I don't think anyone in the entire Kunlun Continent can compare to him. He is now the hottest figure in the Tianxing Empire Royal City.

He gave me Face today; otherwise, even if he slapped that little beast to death, absolutely no one would stand up to speak for us."

"This…"

Zhao Huizhi couldn't help but gasp. Others might not know, but he had certainly heard of Tianqiong Medical Saint's great name.

"Big Brother, could there be some exaggeration in this? He's so young; how could he possibly defeat Tianqiong Medical Saint?"

"Exaggeration? Do you think I, your Big Brother, who has lived so many years, am so easily deceived?"

At this point, the anger on Zhao Huiying's Face dissipated somewhat, replaced by a hint of joy: "I have personally witnessed the miraculous Medical skill of Divine Doctor Ye. He has now completely restored my body.

From now on, Big Brother is a normal person!"

"What?!"

Zhao Huizhi was startled, his Face filled with astonishment. Although he was happy for his Big Brother internally, such a thing was absolutely unheard of.

"Big Brother, are you telling the truth? You're not joking, are you?"

"Nonsense, can I joke about such a matter?"

Zhao Huiying said, "Don't worry, I've already agreed with Medical Immortal Ye that he will give me another Heaven Mending Pill after some time, and then your eye can also be cured."

"Really? That's wonderful!"

Zhao Huizhi was equally overjoyed. These years, under Zhao Huiying's care, he had money and influence. His only regret was his irreversible eye.

He had originally given up, but today he suddenly saw hope, especially with his Big Brother's body fully recovered, which left him with no doubts.

"After your matter is handled, I will resign from my position as Grand Manager and find a quiet place to marry and have children."

Zhao Huiying spoke with a look of longing. These things, simple for ordinary people, were a long-cherished wish for him.

"During this time, make sure everyone in the Family, from top to bottom, keeps a low profile and doesn't cause any more trouble.

The Zhao Family has made many enemies over the years. After I leave, I'm afraid no one will be able to protect you."

"This… I understand, Big Brother."

Although Zhao Huizhi was full of reluctance, he knew this decision could not be changed.

Zhao Huiying was a person with a strong sense of Family. Now that his body was restored, the most important thing was to marry, have children, and continue the Family line.

No one could dissuade him from this, including himself.

But once this great patron was gone, the Zhao Family's future days were bound to be difficult.

Zhao Huiying finished speaking, waved his hand, and left the Zhao Family. Zhao Huizhi hesitated for a moment, then walked towards a nearby room.

This was the confinement room the Zhao Family used to imprison Family members who made mistakes. As soon as he entered, Zhao Lin cried out and rushed forward.

"Father, please help me! I am the only male heir of the Zhao Family, yet Big Uncle treats me like this! I don't want to live, I really don't want to live…"

Although this guy was in his twenties, his only skill was throwing tantrums and threatening to hang himself, using his status as the sole male heir to blackmail his Family.

But it hadn't worked on Zhao Huiying last time, and it was equally ineffective this time.

"Nonsense, you behave yourself!"

Zhao Huizhi also slapped his son across the Face.

"Uh…"

Zhao Lin was stunned again by the blow. Why had everything changed today? His father and Big Uncle, who had always doted on him, were now hitting him without hesitation. Was he, the only male heir, no longer precious?

Zhao Huizhi said, "Your Big Uncle's body has been cured by Ye Bufan. From now on, he can have his own son, so he won't need you!"

"This… This is impossible, how is this possible?"

The words were few, but to Zhao Lin, they were like a bolt from the blue.

He had previously relied on his status as the sole Family heir, but now that Zhao Huiying could have his own son, what status did he have left?

No wonder Big Uncle seemed like a changed person today, hitting him without hesitation, and all the previous affection was gone.

But he couldn't believe this fact. Zhao Huiying was clearly an eunuch; how could he have another son?

"Father, this is absolutely impossible! Could you have been tricked by that brat?"
