Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 970: Chapter 969 The Thief

Tang Zhanshan was willing to take the initiative to help Lin Dong by asking Gu Jiangming to give the Five Hundred Years of Heavenly and Earthly treasures to Lin Dong, so Lin Dong still had a great chance of obtaining those treasures.

As Gu Jiangming’s brother-in-law, Tang Zhanshan’s words carried significant weight.

At this time, the group did not linger at the Tang Family mansion and set off for the Gu Family.

Although Tang Zhanshan had not fully recovered yet, walking like a normal person was not a problem for him at all.

Soon, the group arrived at the Gu Family’s house.

After entering the Gu Family’s house, they found that Gu Jiangming was not in the hall.

”Dad, where are you?” Gu Lingfei shouted as soon as she entered the door, but there was no response from Gu Jiangming.

Only Gu Jiangming’s wife, Gu Lingfei’s mother, was at home.

Gu Lingfei’s mother was a gentle woman. Although she was over forty years old, she took good care of herself and looked to be just in her early thirties.

She bore some resemblance to Gu Lingfei around the eyes and eyebrows and was also a great beauty.

”Your dad has gone to the ancestral home,” Gu Lingfei’s mother replied to Gu Lingfei.

Gu Lingfei muttered, ”What’s dad always doing at the ancestral home?”

”Child, your dad has his reasons for going to the ancestral home. Why are you meddling in adult matters?” Gu Lingfei’s mother rolled her eyes at her.

Gu Lingfei said discontentedly, ”Mom, I’ve already graduated from university; I’m not a child anymore.”

”As long as you haven’t had children, you’re still a child in my eyes,” Gu Lingfei’s mom said.

”Hmph, you say that, but maybe I should have a child sooner rather than later.”

”Go ahead, find me a satisfactory son-in-law sooner. I think this young man beside you is not bad, quite a catch,” Gu Lingfei’s mother said, turning her gaze to Lin Dong.

The last time there was a gathering at their house, Gu Lingfei’s mother was not there as she was on a business trip. This was the first time she had met Lin Dong.

Therefore, she did not know Lin Dong’s identity. Seeing Lin Dong standing next to Gu Lingfei, and this being the first time that Gu Lingfei had brought a young man home, she immediately suspected that Lin Dong might be her daughter’s boyfriend.

The reason she said this was also somewhat probing.

Upon hearing her mother’s words, Gu Lingfei’s face turned red to one side, and she quickly said, ”Mom, what nonsensical things are you saying?”

”He’s my teacher from my internship at Southern Capital Hospital!”

”Teacher? Huh, huh...” Gu Lingfei’s mom suddenly let out a strange laugh.

Gu Lingfei couldn’t help but roll her eyes, thinking that her unreliable mom had a weird smile.

”A teacher is even better. Indeed, mom is a bit outdated. Young people like you know how to play. Don’t worry though, even though I’ve never done this, I’m not too conservative and won’t stop you guys because of this...”

At her mother’s words, Gu Lingfei almost spat out blood.

”Mom, you’ve got it wrong; our relationship is purely that of a teacher and student,” Gu Lingfei hurriedly explained.

”I understand, I understand...” Gu Lingfei’s mom laughingly said.

Lin Dong also felt a bit awkward. He was just about to explain when suddenly, he sensed the breath of a martial artist.

That martial artist’s breath came from beyond the walls of the Gu Family’s house.

He immediately pinpointed the location of the martial artist and then turned on his X-Ray abilities, looking towards that direction.

With one look, he saw a man in black clothes stealthily approaching in a corner of the Gu Family’s mansion.

When the man neared the corner of the wall, he tapped his tiptoes lightly and vaulted over the wall.

Immediately, he entered the Gu Family’s house and headed for a small house.

Since they were in the living room, and there were buildings blocking the view of that small house, they couldn’t see the man in black with their naked eyes.

Lin Dong quickly pointed in the direction of the small house and asked Gu Lingfei’s mother, ”Aunty, what is that room over there for?”

Gu Lingfei’s mother was puzzled and didn’t know why Lin Dong was asking this.

Still, she replied truthfully, ”That’s where my husband keeps his collection of antiques.”

”Not good, that person is trying to steal something!” Lin Dong quickly said, ”Aunty, please take us there quickly. I sensed someone heading there to steal things!”

Gu Lingfei’s mother was taken aback and hurriedly went towards it instinctively.

Lin Dong and the others followed closely behind.

Perhaps the intruder sensed the approach of Lin Dong and his group, because after he slipped into the small house, he hid himself.

But he could not escape Lin Dong’s discerning eye.

Lin Dong immediately confirmed his hiding place.

With a swish, Lin Dong’s figure turned into a phantom and headed towards the place where the man in black was hiding.

The man in black was shocked. ”A Half-Step Earth Realm expert?”

The man in black was incredibly surprised, wondering if the Gu Family actually had such a powerful expert hidden?

He was a Sect Master in martial arts, and under stealth, only a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist who was half a level stronger than him could see through his hiding spot at a glance.

So, his first thought was that Lin Dong was a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist.

But what he did not expect was that the person who had come was not a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist.

It was the rumored Master Lin!

The Lin Dong capable of effortlessly slaughtering Earth Realm martial artists.

When the man in black sensed Lin Dong approaching, he thought to abandon the mission and flee.

But as soon as he activated his inner Qi, he was horrified to find that the inner Qi within his Dantian was sealed by an invisible force.

He couldn’t mobilize his inner Qi!

He was in utter shock.

While he had encountered Half-Step Earth Realm martial artists before, none could seal his inner Qi.

What scared him even more was that an even more terrifying force, like Mount Tai, weighed down on him at that moment.

With a crack, his leg bones directly broke under the suppression of that terrifying force.

With his leg bones broken and no support, his body also fell flat on the ground with a ’thud,’ powerless to struggle.

”Who is this person? How can the Gu Family have such a terrifying expert!?” He lay on the ground, his heart filled with shock.

And at that moment, a young figure appeared in front of him.

He reached out and grabbed. The man in black, like an eagle grasping a chick, was held in the palm of his hand.

Only then did the man in black clearly see his face.

After seeing his face clearly, he yelled out in horror three words:

”Lin... Master Lin!!!”
