Chapter 75 The Foundation
"Divine Doctor Ye deeply understands the greater good, this action is a benevolent deed that will benefit countless citizens of Dragon Country!"
Seeing Ye Ling agree, the Family Head Hu also spoke with respectful expressions.
Ye Ling slightly nodded without saying much.
However, Family Head Hu immediately said, "Divine Doctor Ye, I am willing to invest half of the Hu family's fortune into the foundation!"
"Oh? You have such a kind heart?"
Ye Ling looked at him in surprise and asked curiously.
Family Head Hu smiled and nodded, then said, "I am getting old, and there is not a single outstanding talent among the Hu family's younger generation."
"After my death, most of the vast Hu family fortune will likely fall into the hands of others; rather than letting others take it, it's better to donate it to the children in poverty-stricken areas."
"Leaving half of the fortune is already my old selfishness—by then, with Miss Su as the chairperson of the foundation, she can also deter those with ill intentions, and my Hu family descendants will be able to live peacefully..."
Ye Ling nodded slightly, smiling as he said, "You are quite honest; rest assured in assisting Su Rou to secure her position as chairperson."
"When you pass away, I will look after the Hu family to some extent."
Upon hearing this, Family Head Hu displayed a radiant smile, just as if a common man had suddenly won a prize of five million!
"Thank you, my lord!"
Family Head Hu said respectfully, even his form of address for Ye Ling had already changed.
Ye Ling waved his hand and didn't mind the change in address; instead, he smiled and said, "You three sort out the aftermath; Family Head Hu, go and talk to those few fellows."
"I only give them this one chance; if anyone is unwilling, then he and his family behind him need not exist in this world any longer."
"Is the excitement around Ye Ling really so pleasant to behold?"
A trace of murderous intent emanated, causing Family Head Hu to tremble involuntarily.
After speaking, Ye Ling turned and walked into the villa; he sensed that Su Rou had already gotten up, and he still needed to discuss the foundation matter with her.
He was not at all worried that those few Family Heads would refuse; if anyone refused, he could simply send someone to exterminate that family and seize their fortune, which could still be invested into the foundation.
After Ye Ling entered the villa, Family Head Hu strode towards those few Family Heads who were eagerly watching him.
Meanwhile, Ye Jiu approached that group of Hall members, exuding a threatening aura as he said, "Are you still here because you want me to send you on your way?"
"Now scram!"
Following Ye Jiu's thundering shout, a group of Hall disciples, enduring the severe pain that coursed through their bodies, struggled to get up and quickly got into their vehicles.
And the body of Lin Zhantian, along with that of the Grandmaster, was also taken away.
"Remember to send Lin Zhantian's head to his master!"
Ye Ling's indifferent voice directly pierced through the vehicle, reaching the ears of the person holding Lin Zhantian's head.
The person's body shook and they nodded repeatedly.
"A bunch of trash, daring to trouble the lord."
"It's only because the lord is kind that he is willing to spare them; in my view, these wastes are just squandering air and should be sent down to accompany Lin Zhantian!"
Watching the departing vehicles, Chen Dao pursed his lips and spoke in a low voice.
The three of them then returned to the villa as well.
And Family Head Hu came to those few Family Heads.
"Lords, you came here this time thinking to see Divine Doctor Ye's embarrassment, but you miscalculated!"
Family Head Hu glanced over the few Family Heads with a cold demeanor and said.
Hearing this, each one of them trembled, their eyes revealing uncontrollable fear!
"Family Head Hu, considering our long acquaintance, you must plead with Divine Doctor Ye to spare our lives!"
"Yes, yes, now that Hall Master Lin is dead, and Bada Hall is likely to disintegrate, there is no hope left for treating the Gu poison in our bodies. We are bound to die sooner or later; we hope that Family Head Hu can plead for mercy on our behalf to let us live a little longer!"
"Ah! If only I had trusted Divine Doctor Ye like Family Head Hu did from the beginning, I wouldn't have ended up in this dreadful situation!"
...
Several family heads were pleading with Family Head Hu one after another, begging him to intercede for them.
Family Head Hu kept a stern face and did not speak.
And those family heads had completely lost their usual arrogance, humbling themselves to the lowest point, constantly begging for mercy.
"Divine Doctor Ye is merciful and willing to give you a chance!"
"As long as you surrender all your family assets to Divine Doctor Ye, he will not only refrain from pursuing your offenses this time, but he will also treat the Gu poison in all your direct descendants!"
Seeing that the several family heads had completely despaired, Family Head Hu finally spoke indifferently.
If he had mentioned from the beginning that Ye Ling was willing to spare their lives, the effect would definitely not be as good as it is now!Nôv(el)B\\jnn
When a person is already in despair, just giving them a bit of hope, no matter what the cost, they will be willing to try!
Just as Family Head Hu had expected, each of the family heads, thinking they were surely doomed to die, suddenly burst into dazzling light in their eyes upon hearing his words!
This was the desire to live, and also the light of hope found in a desperate situation!
"I am willing to give all my family assets to Divine Doctor Ye!"
"Yes, yes, we all are willing!"
"Please ask Family Head Hu to notify Divine Doctor Ye quickly, we are willing, please have him act quickly to save us from this heart-devouring pain of the Gu poison which torments me day and night making me wish for death!"
...
The several family heads hurriedly said.
Family Head Hu smiled and nodded, asking them to wait here while he himself walked into the villa.
Inside the villa, Ye Ling was discussing foundation matters with Su Rou.
Upon hearing Ye Ling's words, Su Rou's mouth fell open in shock, continuously saying she didn't have the capability or qualifications for such a role.
But eventually, under Ye Ling's insistence, Su Rou accepted the position of foundation President!
"Sir, they have all agreed!"
"May I know when you would have time to treat them?"
Family Head Hu approached Ye Ling and spoke in a low voice.
Ye Ling pondered slightly, suddenly regretting having Ye Jiu dispose of all the materials for curing the Gu poison earlier!
However, it didn't matter; with his medical expertise, even having just smelled the scent of the antidote, he was able to clearly discern its ingredients!
"Bring me paper and pen!"
Ye Ling commanded; Ye Jiu, who had been standing by, immediately turned into an afterimage, placing paper and pen before Ye Ling.
Picking up the pen, Ye Ling's writing flowed smoothly over the paper, quickly jotting down a prescription.
If anyone from the Witchcraft Sect were here, they would be utterly astonished to see this prescription.
This was precisely the antidote for the heart-eating Gu.
"This prescription will cure the heart-eating Gu in their bodies. I have handed the prescription over to you. As for integrating their assets into the foundation, that's your responsibility; don't disappoint me."
"Understood, sir!"
Family Head Hu respectfully responded, taking the prescription.
