I rely on unlimited life extension

Just then, a system notification rang cheerfully in Cheng Yi's mind: "Punisher, you have punished six evil souls who deserved their fate, triggering the 'annihilation of a clan' achievement, and the drop rate has doubled."

You have received a special reward for the extermination of your entire family: a power of attorney authorizing you to become a 10% shareholder of Marriott International in the real world. After signing, you will receive a 10% share of Marriott International's equity.

Flight: An active skill derived from the female ghost character in the movie "Phantom Lover." It consumes 10 hours of life time and lasts for 1 minute.

Cheng Yi looked at the dumbfounded Sandra Ng and Ma Jiuying, smiled slightly, and said, "Let's go, the ghosts have been dealt with."

Upon leaving the hotel, Ma Jiuying asked with admiration, "Brother Dao, may I ask where you reside?"

Cheng Yi replied with a smile, "I just arrived in Hong Kong today and don't have a place to stay yet."

Upon hearing this, Ma Jiuying said warmly, "I do have a residence, and I would like to invite you to be my guest. Would that be alright?"

Cheng Yi laughed and said, "Sure, but can you speak properly? Your overly formal way of speaking is too tiring for me to listen to."

Ma Jiuying gave an awkward dry laugh and said, "Of course."

After saying that, he got into the car with his cousin and Cheng Yi.

On the way, Cheng Yi learned that his cousin's name was Li Jialing, who had been born with special abilities and had come to Hong Kong on a mission.

Cheng Yi didn't press the matter further, but instead asked Ma Jiuying, "Have you ever met someone who looks a lot like you and also knows Taoist magic?"

Ma Jiuying nodded seriously and said, "Many members of the Lin family under my Maoshan sect are in Hong Kong. However, I take my mother's surname, so I am called Ma Jiuying. My eldest brother Lin Feng, second brother Lin Zheng, and third brother Lin Ying are all in Hong Kong. I am the youngest, so I am in charge of the Yimei Taoist Temple."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yi laughed and said, "It's a pleasure to meet so many like-minded people. Why don't we take advantage of your cousin's visit and invite everyone together for a meal?"

Ma Jiuying was also very interested after hearing this. After returning home, he couldn't wait to start making phone calls to invite everyone.

That night, with the bright moon high in the sky, everyone gathered on the rooftop of the Yimei Martial Arts Hall.

The table was laden with delicious dishes, and everyone ate and chatted happily.

The eldest brother, Lin Feng, brought his daughter, A-Lian; the second brother, Lin Zheng, brought his daughter, Xiao-Ting, who was working as a doctor; and the third brother, Lin Ying, who was working at a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, also brought his daughter, A-Zhi. Only Ma Jiu-Ying called his five apprentices to help take care of them.

Looking at the four brothers who looked so alike sitting at a table, Cheng Yi felt an overwhelming sense of security. He thought to himself: Now, even if the Ghost King or the Zombie King were here, they would definitely die without a burial place.

Without anyone noticing, the atmosphere subtly changed.

Cheng Yi keenly sensed that there was a hint of hostility in the eyes of the four Ninth Uncles as they looked at him.

It turned out that their three daughters were currently surrounding Cheng Yi as if they were bewitched, chattering away and asking him all sorts of questions, their concern for him evident in their words.

Not only that, they also enthusiastically served Cheng Yi food and carefully poured him wine, completely disregarding the elders at the table.

On the other side, Li Jialing was happily circling around Ma Jiuying, her eyes full of girlish shyness and admiration, clearly having fallen in love. Unfortunately, Ma Jiuying didn't seem to be interested.

While Cheng Yi was still lost in thought, the three girls from the Lin family came up to him, either chatting with him or asking him questions. Azhi, who looked seven parts like Li Saifeng, kept leaning into his arms. Before long, a system notification came.

System notification: With the help of your eloquent words, your special skill "Soul-Stealing Eye" has been activated, consuming 300 hours of your life time.

A sense of doubt arose in Cheng Yi's heart as he pondered to himself: Wasn't it said that the hostility of the native inhabitants of this world towards him would increase by one? Why were these girls rushing towards him like butterflies in a whirlwind, without any regard for anything else?

Just then, a series of heavy and dragging footsteps came from behind.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a short, fat man with parted hair, swaying his round belly and plump buttocks as he slowly walked up.

Upon seeing the group of people eating, he was startled by the four brothers who looked so alike. His eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't help but shout at the top of his lungs, "Which one of you is Ma Jiuying?"

Upon seeing this, Ma Jiuying's five apprentices immediately stood up in unison.

The oldest apprentice wore black-rimmed glasses, and his eyes behind the lenses revealed a calm demeanor. He looked to be about the same age as Ma Jiuying.

He walked over with slightly unsteady steps, his tone wary, and asked, "What do you want with my master?"

The short, fat man crossed his arms and said arrogantly, "What? Collecting rent? Tell your boss to pay the three months' rent he owes me right now, and he has to prepay double the rent, otherwise, you'll have to eat somewhere else!"

"Wow, you can't believe it! We have to pay double the rent in advance? That's too much!" the eldest apprentice exclaimed in surprise.

The short, fat man snorted dismissively and said confidently, "The Hong Kong property market is recovering now, and rents are rising rapidly."

"Your apartment isn't small, and I've only refrained from raising your rent to the maximum limit because we're old neighbors. Otherwise, I would have kicked you out to sleep on the streets long ago!"

Upon hearing this, the five apprentices immediately began to discuss it amongst themselves.

At this moment, Ma Jiuying frowned, walked over with a sullen face, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Brother, you're just a real estate agent, there's no need to be so aggressive, is there?"

The short, fat man glanced at Ma Jiuying disdainfully and said, "Ma Jiuying, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. I have a villa that I haven't been able to look after. If you agree to look after all the nearby units for me, I'll rent that villa to you for free."

Upon hearing this, Ma Jiuying agreed immediately without the slightest hesitation.

Just then, Cheng Yi stepped forward, reached out to stop Ma Jiuying, and said, "Don't rush, let me ask."

He turned his head, looked directly at the short, fat man with the buzz cut, and asked, "What's your name?"

The short, fat man revealed a smug look and said, "If you're going to give me face, call me Brother Wei; if you're not, you can call me Fatty."

Cheng Yi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

He leisurely pulled a thick wad of banknotes from his pocket, slapped them twice on the short, fat man's face, and said, "So, do you think I should call you Brother Wei or Fatty?"

The short, fat man was startled by this sudden action, his fat face twitched, and he immediately bowed and scraped, saying with a fawning expression, "Boss, don't be so formal, just call me Fatty."

Cheng Yi smiled and continued, "Fatty, let me ask you, is there something evil in that villa you just told Ma Jiuying to stay in?"

Fei Wei glanced at Ma Jiuying subconsciously, then turned to Cheng Yi with a fawning smile and said, "Boss, how can you say there's something dirty? It's just that it hasn't been cleaned properly yet."

Cheng Yi sneered and said, "Wrong! You sent someone to clean it up, but that person was too weak and got beaten up by the ghost. You were at your wits' end and wanted to find a powerful sorcerer to help you clean up the haunted house, so you found Ma Jiuying, right?"

"Ah, well... umm, boss, don't say that. I'll clean this villa up, I'll just give him some money for tea." Fat Wei, having his thoughts exposed, scratched his head awkwardly.

Upon hearing this, Li Jialing jumped up in anger and shouted, "Well, you fatso, you actually tricked my cousin!"

Fei Wei quickly waved his hand and said, "What kind of talk is that? How can you call it a scam? He helps me take care of the house, and I let him live there for free. It's a win-win situation, okay? Boss, I have more than just this one unit. Have you ever thought about buying a house? I can introduce you to a great place. It's absolutely nestled against the mountains and facing the sea, with beautiful scenery."

Cheng smiled and said, "What you said makes some sense. I'm new to Hong Kong and do need to buy a place to stay. How about this, you come over tomorrow morning and take us to that haunted house. I want to take a look, and if it's okay, I'll buy it outright."

"Wow, boss, you're so generous! No problem, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. You all continue eating, I won't bother you any longer, goodbye." Fatty Wei said as he bowed and left.

After Fei Wei left, Lin Feng looked at Ma Jiuying, frowned slightly, and said, "Jiuying, why don't you come with me to the outlying island?"

Ma Jiuying shook her head firmly, reached out to stop Lin Feng, and said, "Brother, there's no need to persuade me. Yimei Martial Arts Academy is the foundation of the Maoshan Lin family for a hundred years. This signboard carries the glory and heritage of our Lin family, and it must not fall."

Cheng Yi smiled, patted Ma Jiuying on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I'll lend you some money. We'll buy that haunted house tomorrow. After cleaning it up and putting up a sign, it'll become the Lin Family Dojo."

Xiaoting's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly, saying, "Okay, let's take it as... betrothal gifts."

As soon as she said that, everyone turned around in surprise, their eyes all turning to her.

Xiaoting then realized she had misspoke, and a blush immediately spread across her face.

She glanced awkwardly at A-Lian and A-Zhi, then mustered her courage and said, "After the blind date, shouldn't we start talking about marriage?"

Ma Jiuying looked surprised and said, "Little Ting, we're just having a meal together today, it's not a blind date."

Xiaoting glanced at Cheng Yi somewhat shyly and said in a low voice, "But, I've already fallen for him."

At this moment, Azhi blushed slightly, weakly raised her hand, and said, "I also like Brother Cheng Yi, what should I do?"

Not to be outdone, A-Lian immediately raised her hand and shouted, "I was clearly the first one to come in and meet Brother Cheng Yi! Even if it's a blind date, I should be first in line!"

The four Uncle Yings looked at each other, then at each other, and finally all turned their gazes to Ma Jiuying.

Ma Jiuying coughed lightly and said, "Well, what I meant was that the four of us brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. My cousin happened to be here, so we thought we'd get together and introduce Fellow Daoist Cheng Yi to everyone. But I never expected that this kid Cheng Yi would actually seduce my three nieces. How could I tolerate him?"

As he spoke, he rushed down, grabbed the peach wood sword that was lying to the side, and charged back with murderous intent, thrusting it straight at Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi quickly stepped aside and shouted, "How can you blame me? This is the first time I've ever seen the three of them either!"

Upon seeing this, the three little beauties immediately stepped in front of Cheng Yi without hesitation and said in unison, "Fourth Uncle, you are not allowed to bully Brother Cheng Yi!"

Seeing this, Ma Jiuying had no choice but to sheepishly put away his peach wood sword.

He glanced at his three older brothers, who were looking up at the sky, sighing, stamping their feet, and beating their chests, their faces full of regret. He felt a pang of remorse, hating himself for bringing Cheng Yi here.

After dinner, everyone's enthusiasm for conversation remained high, and they chatted animatedly until midnight.

At this moment, Cheng Yi keenly noticed that his elder brother Lin Feng's cough sounded strange, as if there were traces of pain mixed in with it.

He frowned with concern and offered to examine Lin Feng.

After a thorough examination, Cheng Yi discovered that Lin Feng had lesions in his lungs.

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly wrote a prescription for Lin Feng according to the system prompts.

Third Brother Lin Ying, who was also a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, took the prescription and examined it carefully. He couldn't help but praise it repeatedly, saying that the prescription was precise in its use of medicine, and that the combination of each herb was just right, demonstrating Cheng Yi's superb medical skills.

Not only that, Cheng Yi also used his abilities to infuse Lin Feng with two streams of longevity energy.

This vital energy, like a warm current, flowed slowly through Lin Feng's meridians, effectively alleviating the physical aging caused by his advanced age.

Subsequently, Cheng Yi spent another 500 hours using the Divine Healer skill to heal injuries and cure diseases.

Within just a few minutes, Lin Feng's body underwent a violent reaction.

He began to cough violently and incessantly, the sound of which seemed particularly jarring in the quiet night.

Finally, he vomited a purplish-black lump that emitted a pungent odor, shocking everyone present.

However, after vomiting, Lin Feng felt as if he had been reborn, feeling refreshed all over, and even his breathing became much longer and more steady.

Looking at Lin Feng's transformation, Lin Ying couldn't help but marvel, repeatedly saying how incredible it was.

At this moment, Lin Feng, feeling completely at ease, looked at Cheng Yi, but a hint of worry was hidden in his eyes.

Cheng Yi looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression. Lin Feng sighed softly and said slowly, "I know my own body better than anyone. When I was a child, I injured my lung meridian while practicing martial arts, and this ailment has stayed with me for most of my life. Over the years, as I've gotten older, my bodily functions have gradually declined."

But you treated my illness and injuries in less than 10 minutes, and I felt like I was twenty years younger. I've never seen anything like it in my life, let alone witnessed it firsthand, I've never even heard of it. Even in my grandfather's time, such medical skill would have been absolutely astonishing.

“I don’t want to ask you what method you used to cure my illness, but I have something to say to you.”

Cheng smiled and said, "Brother Lin, please speak."
