Long Xiao did not make things difficult for Dai Ling and Xu Ke and their master and disciple. He just asked Dai Ling how she used the copper coin sword to emit spiritual energy.
Long Xiao was interested in all sorts of spells and wanted to ask about anything he didn't understand.
After listening to Dai Ling's explanation of how to emit spiritual energy, Long Xiao compared her method with the method in the "Dragon Treasury" and found that Dai Ling's method was an imitation of the method in the "Dragon Treasury," but a poor one, not even one percent as good.
"Old Huo is my disciple, you two can leave. I don't want to watch you go to your death," Long Xiao waved his hand and said.
Both of them had witnessed Long Xiao's strength, so his disciple's strength would not be too low. As they left, they both felt like they had narrowly escaped death.
Watching the two of them leave and disappear into the darkness, Long Xiao then stood up and walked towards the mountain.
After reaching the mountain, Long Xiao took a long detour before descending, emitting his aura as he walked, observing everything within forty meters ahead.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Long Xiao found two people appearing within the range of his aura.
As soon as Long Xiao's aura touched these two people, they both looked around spontaneously.
"Jack, I feel like someone is staring at us."
Jack looked at his companion and said, "I have the same feeling. Let's leave here quickly."
The two of them moved very quickly. Long Xiao watched them leave and disappear from his observation range, and did not pursue them.
Jack was handsome, with a feminine charm, and his long golden hair cascaded casually over his shoulders, giving him an ethereal look.
Jack's companion had a stern appearance, much like an old-fashioned gentleman from the British Isles.
After the two of them had gone far away, Long Xiao descended the hillside and returned to the Huo family villa.
The next morning, Lin Xuan prepared to meet Huo Kun to discuss cooperation. More than half of the people monitoring the Huo family villa had left, and the remaining ones would not pose a threat to the Huo family for the time being, so Long Xiao decided to go with Lin Xuan.
After breakfast at the Huo family's, Lin Xuan did not let Huo Tianyi send them, but called for a car herself.
Lin Xuan did not want Huo Kun to know that she was staying at Huo Zhen's house, to avoid complications.
Lin Xuan and the other two arrived at the Huo Group headquarters. They were stopped by the security guard as soon as they reached the entrance.
No matter how the three of them pleaded, the security guard refused to let them in.
"Mainlander, this is Hong Kong. If you come here, you must abide by our Hong Kong rules. We Hong Kong people are the most law-abiding. Without rules..."
The security guard's lengthy sermon made Long Xiao and the other two weary.
Long Xiao could no longer stand it and said, "Since you won't let us in, then fine. Lin Xuan, call Huo Kun and tell him the cooperation is canceled."
"Mainlander, don't threaten me with that. How could you possibly know President Huo? If you knew President Huo, I'd eat my own head."
The security guard still didn't believe that Long Xiao knew Huo Kun. Lin Xuan took out her phone and quickly connected to Huo Kun's secretary's phone.
"I am Lin Xuan, here to discuss cooperation for the pharmaceutical factory. I'm being blocked by the security guard at the entrance."
Long Xiao snatched Lin Xuan's phone and said, "Tell President Huo that if we can't get into Huo Group, the cooperation is canceled."
The Huo family was one of the most prominent families in Hong Kong, and the queue of people who wanted to cooperate with the Huo family could stretch for ten miles.
The secretary heard Long Xiao threatening her and said, "If you want to cancel, then cancel. There are plenty of people who want to cooperate with our Huo Group, we don't need you."
After hanging up and returning Lin Xuan's phone, Lin Xuan said, "Long Xiao, how could you mess things up? Canceling the cooperation means we came all this way for nothing."
Long Xiao chuckled and said, "Don't worry, the second Huo will come looking for you personally."
"Huo Kun is arrogant and domineering. He won't debase himself for this cooperation," Lin Xuan said.
Long Xiao shook his head and said, "Your judgment is inaccurate. If it were just Huo Kun who wanted to cooperate, our actions would surely have ruined it. Now, it's Old Master Huo who wants to cooperate. Huo Kun wants to be the head of the Huo family, so no matter how arrogant he is, he'll have to bow his head."
"Brother Long is right. Let's go, we're not afraid that he won't come looking for us," Yang Xiaoyue also said confidently.
Leaving the entrance of the Huo Group headquarters, Lin Xuan said, "If Huo Kun knew we were staying at Tianyi's house, he definitely wouldn't look for us."
Long Xiao nodded and said, "Let's go, we'll get a room at the Hong Kong Grand Hotel."
"You're very familiar with Hong Kong, have you often come to Hong Kong to book rooms?" Lin Xuan asked, looking at Long Xiao.
"Wife, don't misunderstand. This is my second time in Hong Kong. Last time, Luo Tianshui helped me book a room. I haven't booked one myself."
After Long Xiao finished speaking, seeing that Lin Xuan's gaze was still unfriendly, he quickly added, "Xiaoyue comes to Hong Kong often. She must know where you should book a room given your status."
Lin Xuan nodded, and Yang Xiaoyue said, "Brother Long is right. We should book a room at the Hong Kong Grand Hotel. Companies from the mainland like to stay at the Hong Kong Grand Hotel when they come to Hong Kong."
The Hong Kong Grand Hotel is located on Victoria Harbour, with its main entrance facing the sea, offering a beautiful and comfortable environment.
Those entering and exiting the grand hotel were all handsome men and beautiful women. Long Xiao, not good at dressing himself, looked somewhat out of place walking with the two beautiful women.
As the three of them just reached the entrance of the Hong Kong Grand Hotel, the doorman stepped forward and blocked Long Xiao, saying, "Sorry, drivers and servants use the side entrance."
Long Xiao looked at the doorman and asked, "Which eye of yours saw me as a servant?"
The doorman didn't understand the meaning of Long Xiao's words and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Are you blind? I am Master Long of Xinglin Hall of Medicine. How could I be a servant?" Long Xiao said loudly.
Xinglin Hall of Medicine had been open for half a year and its reputation was growing. Many Hong Kong residents specifically traveled to Donghai to seek treatment.
The doorman happened to have been to Xinglin Hall of Medicine before. He looked at Long Xiao and shook his head, saying, "What Master Long? I only know that the physician practicing at Xinglin Hall of Medicine is Master Li, the divine physician of Donghai."
"Li Yizhen, Ming Yue, and Tong Hui, who practice at Xinglin Hall of Medicine, are all my disciples. Li Xinran is my grand-disciple."
When the doorman went to Xinglin Hall of Medicine at that time, he had heard the names of these people. He had gone specifically for Li Yizhen, but he couldn't get an appointment with Li Yizhen, so he had to buy an appointment with Li Xinran at a high price from a scalper.
The diagnosis took only a few minutes, and a pill refined by Long Xiao, costing ten thousand yuan per pill, cured his illness immediately. Before he even left Donghai, his illness was gone.
"Li Xinran is a divine physician, and she is your grand-disciple? You are so young, who would believe that."
"I'm not asking you to believe me. Get out of the way, or I'll call your manager," Long Xiao threatened.
The doorman ultimately chose to step aside. Although he still didn't believe that Long Xiao was the owner of Xinglin Hall of Medicine, he could tell that Long Xiao was not a servant or a driver.
The three of them booked two rooms. Long Xiao was overjoyed. Just as he was about to go into the room with Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan threw him a room card and said, "You're in the room opposite. Xiaoyue and I will share a room."
"I thought we'd share a room. I didn't expect not to," Long Xiao said softly.
Lin Xuan heard Long Xiao speaking but didn't quite catch what he said and asked, "What did you say?"
Long Xiao quickly smiled and said, "Nothing, it's just quieter having a room to myself."
