Rural Doctor Enters the City: Whoever Touches My Wife, I’ll Take Them Down!
Chapter 387: Recruiting Xie Changlin!

Chapter 387: Chapter 387: Recruiting Xie Changlin!

Xie Changlin’s expression froze.

"Zhao Heng?"

"Who is Zhao Heng?"

Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.

Xie Changlin’s reaction didn’t seem feigned; could it be that he really didn’t know about this?

Then who could it be?

Zhou Yu briefly explained how Old Ghost He secretly harmed Zhao Heng.

After listening, Xie Changlin’s expression turned ugly.

After some struggle, he clenched his teeth and said,

"I really didn’t know about this."

"I am only Shenwu Hall’s third elder, and Old Ghost He is an honorary elder. Strictly speaking, his status is even higher than mine; I have no authority to command, only the grand elder and the Hall Master have that authority."

"This matter, unless unexpected, should be the grand elder’s order."

"Is that so?"

"Where is he?"

Zhou Yu inquired.

Xie Changlin shook his head.

"This, I really don’t know."

"In recent years, the Hall Master and grand elder have barely shown themselves. Where they are and what they’re doing? I have no idea."

Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.

The Shenwu Hall was indeed tightly secured.

No wonder they had remained inconspicuous in the provincial city for so many years.

This inquiry had yielded no useful information, leaving Zhou Yu somewhat unwilling to let it go.

He stared at Xie Changlin, his gaze constantly shifting.

Xie Changlin felt uneasy under his stare.

He didn’t know what Zhou Yu was thinking, wondering if he was pondering how to deal with him!

Just then, Zhou Yu suddenly turned his head towards Qin Dingbang.

"Mr. Qin, I have some matters to discuss with Elder Xie."

Qin Dingbang immediately reacted.

"Alright, I’ll go out and entertain the guests, you two chat."

Qin Dingbang and others withdrew.

Xie Changlin hesitated for a moment, then also commanded his subordinates to withdraw.

Soon, only Zhou Yu and Xie Changlin were left in the room.

Zhou Yu then spoke up.

"Elder Xie, are you interested in working for me?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Changlin was stunned.

"Mr. Zhou, what do you mean by that? I... I don’t understand."

Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes, looking at Xie Changlin.

"Don’t understand, or are you pretending to be confused?"

"Do you know why you have been stuck at Innate realm for years and not progressed an inch?"

Xie Changlin’s expression changed suddenly.

"Mr. Zhou, you... how do you know?"

"If I am not mistaken, your sea of consciousness was damaged, probably due to practicing Demonic Roar, leaving injuries."

"Stepping into the Saint Realm, the most critical aspect is the Primordial Spirit."

"Your injured sea of consciousness directly affects the cultivation of the Primordial Spirit, hence, you have been stuck in place all these years."

"Is that correct?"

Thunk!

As Zhou Yu’s words ended, Xie Changlin knelt down on the ground.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou!"

Xie Changlin’s face was filled with excitement.

What Zhou Yu had just said was his biggest secret.

Over the years, he had sought help from many famous doctors in private, but while those people boasted extensively, none could truly diagnose his condition.

Yet, Zhou Yu had described his situation accurately.

He had directly addressed Xie Changlin’s greatest desperation.

If Zhou Yu had forcefully asked him to betray Shenwu Hall, he would have been extremely resistant, but if Zhou Yu could heal his injury and let him step into the Saint Realm, then what the hell was Shenwu Hall? If he had to betray, then so be it.

"If you can heal the injury in my sea of consciousness, I, Xie Changlin, am willing to do anything for Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Good, remember what you said."

Xie Changlin’s face was filled with joy.

"Mr. Zhou, can you really heal my injury?"

"Of course, but the injury in the sea of consciousness is not so easy to heal, I need a few days to prepare."

"During this time, I need you to keep an eye on the situation in Shenwu Hall, especially the statuses of the Hall Master and grand elder, and inform me immediately if any of them appear."

"No problem."

Xie Changlin immediately assured.

"Alright, then you may leave."

Zhou Yu said with a smile.

Xie Changlin suppressed the excitement in his heart and bowed before departing.

Zhou Yu watched Xie Changlin’s departing figure, pondering thoughtfully.

He knew Xie Changlin through conflicts with his son; despite their differences, through several interactions, he found that although Xie seemed influential as the third elder of Shenwu Hall, he was in fact just a loyal house dog.

In Shenwu Hall, his status was not actually that high.

Zhou Yu knew this, hence he had brought Xie Changlin over to his side.

Because, breaking through a strong fortress often requires breaking from within.

He hoped Xie Changlin would not disappoint him.

After dealing with Xie Changlin’s matter, Zhou Yu began planning for taking over Wu Bo’s media company the next day.

Actually, taking over Wu Bo’s company was partly to establish authority for Lin Luoluo during this event.

On the other hand, it was also for the sake of his own company.

Shui Tianyue had mentioned a couple of days ago that the company was facing two major issues.

The first was the supply of products; put simply, without a stable source of herbs, the company could not grow.

The second issue was publicity; the channels for traditional media publicity were monopolized by those old cosmetic medicine enterprises under long-term contracts, leaving no channels for new cosmetic medicine enterprises.

This also represented a suppression method from the established enterprises towards the emerging ones.

It was with this consideration in mind that Zhou Yu had snatched Wu Bo’s company away.

New media, obviously, was a new avenue for future publicity.

Only, Zhou Yu wasn’t sure how to operate it.

At this moment, Qin Lan peeked in through the door.

"Brother Yu, are you done? I saw Xie Changlin and others leaving, and you hadn’t come out, so I came to check."

Zhou Yu said with a smile,

"I’m done, just thinking through some things."

"Oh, what matters? Can you share with me?"
