"Dragon Lord, you've just recovered and need a good period of rest. You should take it easy. I'll go to the military court myself," Lin Xiao grinned. He helped the Dragon Lord lie down and then walked out of the ward.
"Divine Doctor!" Xiao Zheng's face changed. That was the military court!
If Lin Xiao really went there, his status and current reputation in the country would be ruined!
It would be an indelible stain!
He anxiously looked at the Dragon Lord lying on the bed and quickly said, "Dragon Lord, you won't let him go to the military court, will you?"
After Lin Xiao left the room, the Dragon Lord finally nodded, "Of course not... This is such a small matter. If I let him go to the military court, wouldn't the Northern Territory be in an uproar?"
He looked at Xiao Zheng as if he were an idiot and asked, "Xiao Zheng, do you really think this old, frail body means my mind is old too?"
"I didn't mean that..." Xiao Zheng quickly said, "I just..."
He couldn't find the words to explain and stammered.
Seeing his embarrassed look, the Dragon Lord chuckled and motioned Xiao Zheng to come to the bedside, "Come here."
"Let me tell you... that kid understands this better than you. As for the military court, it's just talk. Old Zhou and the others will naturally go chat with him over some tea. You, on the other hand, don't need to worry. Go, go rest. You've been busy for so long."
"Yes, sir!"
Xiao Zheng finally responded and obediently left the ward.
After Xiao Zheng left, the Dragon Lord slowly closed his eyes.
...
Lin Xiao walked out of the hospital, with Qi Tian following him.
"Life and Death Needle, Lin Xiao. I didn't expect you to reach this point," Qi Tian stood beside him, looking up at the patch of dark clouds that had just dispersed.
That final needle of resurrection had touched something he had never touched before.
Exchanging ten years of his lifespan for this revival, Lin Xiao would be burdened with karma.
This karma was not something that could be easily severed.
"Thanks," Lin Xiao said softly, looking at Qi Tian, "The transaction is complete."
"How can you say the transaction is complete?" Qi Tian shook his head. "You haven't given me what you owe me."
"Soon."
Lin Xiao spoke as he pointed a finger at Qi Tian, "Are you ready?"
"Yes."
With that, a trace of Lin Xiao's spiritual energy entered Qi Tian's body.
This trace of spiritual energy began to circulate within Qi Tian.
Qi Tian immediately took out his notebook and quickly recorded the method of circulation of this spiritual energy within his body.
The transaction was simple: Qi Tian would immediately give Lin Xiao the cultivation technique he needed and would also provide assistance when Lin Xiao required it.
"Good... such an exquisite cultivation technique!"
As the circulation continued, the surprise on Qi Tian's face grew more evident. He couldn't have imagined that this cultivation technique was something Lin Xiao had created himself!
Lin Xiao shrugged as he watched Qi Tian holding the notebook. Just as they walked out of the hospital, a car stopped in front of them.
"Officer, please get in," the driver stepped out, opened the car door for Lin Xiao, and invited Lin Xiao and Qi Tian to board.
"Thank you for your trouble."
As they both got into the car, Lin Xiao dialed Luo Qinghan's number.
