Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1787 1788: Watanabe Manor

The sound of coughing finally pulled Hoshino Junka back from her thoughts. Seeing Ling Zhenfei, Hoshino Junka was overjoyed and jumped into Ling Zhenfei's arms.

"Big Brother Ling, you're back, I was worried sick about you."

Ling Zhenfei held Hoshino Junka and said, "What are you worried about? That I'd get killed?"

Hoshino Junka said, "Our people said the entire Watanabe Manor was on the move last night. I knew they were obviously after you. I really thought they had captured you.

But our people couldn't infiltrate and didn't know what happened in the end. I wanted to go to Watanabe Manor to demand you back, but they wouldn't let me out."

Ling Zhenfei gently tapped Hoshino Junka on the head and said, "Are you stupid? With your little strength, going to Watanabe Manor would be a death sentence. You should have faith in me; even if I do nothing, I would have my ways to escape."

Hoshino Junka laughed happily, looking at Ling Zhenfei, "I'm just glad you're back. I was really afraid of losing you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You idiot, didn't I come back safely? Where's your father? I have something to discuss with him."

"He's inside, let's go in."

With Hoshino Junka leading the way, Ling Zhenfei headed inside.

Upon entering the room, everyone was surprised to know Ling Zhenfei had returned.

Obviously, they had all heard about the lights blazing and chaos at Watanabe Manor last night.

Everyone was very worried, and seeing Ling Zhenfei return was indeed a great surprise.

Hoshino Yuji was also very excited. After a round of greetings, Ling Zhenfei and the others all sat down.

Ling Zhenfei glanced around; these people could be considered the top martial artists of the Hoshino Family at present, including several Dawen Realm experts and those at the Zhiyi Boundary.

Ling Zhenfei looked at Hoshino Yuji and said, "I went to Watanabe Manor yesterday and have sorted out the basic situation."

"What exactly did you find out? You must tell us everything," Hoshino Yuji said.

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "The battle at the Ichinin Arena might be a bit troublesome. Maybe you don't know, but besides Watanabe Kazushi, there's another formidable person in the Watanabe Family, also at the Dawen Realm, named Watanabe Goryu."

Everyone froze upon hearing this.

"What! Watanabe Goryu is back?"

"No way, wasn't Watanabe Goryu studying abroad all this time? Why did he return now?"

"This is going to be troublesome."

Seeing their reaction, Ling Zhenfei understood that they had some knowledge about Watanabe Goryu.

"Is this Watanabe Goryu really that formidable?" Ling Zhenfei asked.

One person replied, "We've always known about this Watanabe Goryu. He is reputed to be one of the top young geniuses in the Island Nation's younger generation.

He became famous throughout Bin Qi Wu at a very young age, advancing in prowess leaps and bounds every day. But years ago, he went to some overseas fairyland for cultivation. I didn't expect him to return now."

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Not bad, indeed. Now Watanabe Goryu's strength is at the peak of the Dawen Realm, even surpassing Watanabe Kazushi."

"What, Dawen Peak?! How can we even fight this, it's a sure loss."

"Exactly, two in the Dawen Realm, and the Hoshino Family only has one in the Dawen Realm."

"This is troublesome. No wonder the Watanabe Family is so confident, they have been hiding Watanabe Goryu."

Ling Zhenfei smiled and said, "Watanabe Goryu's strength is indeed impressive. I did cross paths with him, he is quite strong, not easy to deal with."

"We're doomed, truly doomed. Could it be that fate is set against our Hoshino Family?" Hoshino Yuji was somewhat pessimistic.

However, the Third Elder noticed the issue and asked Ling Zhenfei, "Mr. Xiao Ling, since you've crossed paths with him, who is stronger, you or Watanabe Goryu?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "The Watanabe Family now has five Dawen Realm experts, so I didn't fight much with Watanabe Goryu, just exchanged a few blows before leaving. It's hard to say who is stronger."

Everyone was shocked, even a bit incredulous.

To escape unscathed during a pursuit by five Dawen Realm experts and retreat safely after crossing blows with Watanabe Goryu...

Maybe this is what they call understated brilliance being the ultimate show-off. Ling Zhenfei's words left everyone astonished.

If Mr. Watanabe is that formidable, shouldn't Mr. Ling deal with Watanabe Goryu?

"No, it can't be done. Mr. Ling is not a Hoshino Family member, how could he intervene? It's already a battle between the Watanabe and Hoshino families."

"Exactly, the battle can only be between the two families' members. If we lose, the Watanabe Family will definitely not spare the Hoshino Family."

People were buzzing about, some even doubting everything.

But at this moment, someone suddenly spoke.

"Since Mr. Ling is not yet a member of the Hoshino Family, then think of a way to make Mr. Ling a member of the Hoshino Family."

Everyone turned to look at this person.

This person was Asou Tarou, nominally the head of the Asou Family at present.

Everyone knew that Asou Tarou was somewhat capable, mainly because he was clever and resourceful.

Seeing everyone looking at Asou Tarou, they knew he must have an idea.

"Asou, have you thought of a solution? You say let Mr. Ling become a Hoshino Family member, but it's not that simple. The main thing is, everyone knows Mr. Ling isn't a Hoshino Family member."

Asou Tarou chuckled, saying, "As the saying goes, 'You have Zhang Liang's plan, I have a way over the wall.' Isn't it common knowledge that Mr. Ling Zhenfei isn't a Hoshino Family member?

Then let's do something to make everyone believe Mr. Ling Zhenfei is a Hoshino Family member, wouldn't that solve it?"

Someone was displeased and said, "Asou, just tell us your idea, don't keep us in suspense."

"Exactly, I'm so confused; I don't know what to do."

Asou Tarou laughed and said, "Actually, it's quite simple. Let Mr. Ling marry one of our Hoshino Family girls, then wouldn't he rightfully be a Hoshino Family member?"

Everyone was almost about to cheer when they heard this. The idea was simply brilliant.

Yes, once married, Ling Zhenfei can be considered a Hoshino Family member. That's a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

Ling Zhenfei had been silent, watching them.

Now they all turned to look at Ling Zhenfei.

Asou Tarou asked Ling Zhenfei, "Brother Ling, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Ling Zhenfei glanced around and said, "I'm currently not planning to get married."

Asou Tarou said, "Mr. Ling, we all know you have a good relationship with Xiao Xia. The Hoshino Family did have some misunderstandings with you, but those misunderstandings are over.

Since you're here to help our Ittō-ryū and the Hoshino Family, it means you've forgiven past actions.
