Chapter 451: Chapter 451 Master Hong Chapter 451: Chapter 451 Master Hong “Master, that Master Hong is a figure that suddenly emerged a month ago.”
“It is said that he comes from Capital City and is skilled in fortune-telling, Feng Shui, metaphysics, and such, able to help people change their fortunes.”
“After his arrival in Jianghai, he temporarily established a Taoist temple. Now, that Taoist temple has garnered a lot of popularity. Many people go there to seek wealth, offspring, marriage, and so on.”
“He has many believers, and most of them are female…”
Listening to Sister Hong’s narration, Lin Dong’s face turned increasingly iron blue.
“He dares to call himself a master?”
In the Martial Arts World, the title of Master is reserved for Sect Masters. It is not something that a heartless user of heretical practices can sully.
“Where is his Taoist temple?” Lin Dong asked.
Sister Hong quickly gave an address, then added,
“Master, shall I take you there directly?”
Lin Dong nodded.
Before leaving, he made a call to the President of the Hospital to ask for leave.
At that moment, Huang Wende was also beside the President. Hearing that Lin Dong had requested leave again, he couldn’t help but say,
“President, this Doctor Lin Dong is too presumptuous, constantly taking leaves. Why should he even be a doctor? You might as well dismiss him!”
The President waved his hand and said, “Wende, what are you blabbering about? Doctor Lin Dong is so skilled in medicine that hospitals in Provincial Capital are vying for him, and you tell me to dismiss him?”
“Moreover, we had an agreement with him that he has the right to take leave at any time.”
“Doctor Lin Dong surely has important matters to attend to, that’s why he’s taking leave… If you talk like this again, I’ll dismiss you first!”
The Vice President Huang Wende could only sigh, as he, even with his status, couldn’t do anything about Lin Dong.
After leaving the Dean’s Office, he kept calling his daughter Huang Meihua.
“Where has Meihua gone? She didn’t come home last night and hasn’t been found since!”
All day long, she knows nothing but to fool around with men…”
He cursed as he had been unable to find his daughter for a matter.
Meanwhile, Lin Dong had already set off.
He was sitting in a car driven by Sister Hong, heading for that ‘Master Hong’s’ Taoist Temple.
The temple was located by the river inside a Taoist temple.
That Taoist temple had been sparsely populated, only housing a few Taoist priests before.
After Master Hong’s arrival, it didn’t take long for him to ‘purchase’ the temple, and now it has become his personal Taoist Temple.
When they parked in the nearby parking lot, they could see many propitious men and women, holding incense sticks, walking towards the inside.
Lin Dong also noticed that among those heading to Master Hong’s Taoist temple, there were more women than men.
Just as he got out of the car and was about to take Sister Hong inside,
he heard a voice calling out.
“Eh, Lin Dong, what are you doing here? Could it be that you’re also here to seek a divination from Master Hong?”
After this voice rang out, Lin Dong turned towards the sound, and to his surprise, he saw Chu Lan, Qiao Bing’s older cousin.
Lin Dong frowned slightly and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Chu Lan replied, “Of course I’m here to seek a fortune from Master Hong, and, of course, to see if Master Hong would take on a disciple.”
“Lin Dong, let me tell you, Master Hong is a real Immortal, with exceptional abilities.”
“I have an online celebrity friend who suddenly became popular recently. Do you know why?”
“It’s because she visited Master Hong. Master Hong gave her a jar to take home, and after she started worshipping the jar, her luck came her way.”
“In just half a month, she went from being a minor online celebrity with tens of thousands across the whole network to a superstar with fans in the millions, even close to ten million.”
“Last night, she sold merchandise and earned ten million in one night!”
Hearing all this, Lin Dong snorted coldly, “It’s obviously a heresy, and you’re imitating it too, as if you think you have too long a life?”
Upon hearing this, Chu Lan pouted and said, “I don’t care if it’s a heresy, as long as it makes me famous, what else matters?”
“Besides, it’s not a heresy with Master Hong, he’s truly capable. He’s just like those Feng Shui Masters in Hong Kong.”
“It’s called Metaphysics! In the past and now, many superstars and rich businessmen believe in this stuff.”
“Do you know the superstar Qiao Xixi from Capital City? It’s said that she became famous thanks to a Feng Shui Master changing her fortune!”
“And those businessmen in Hong Kong. When building something, they all look for these masters…”
“Forget it, why am I even talking about this with you, when you don’t understand. I’m going to find Master Hong now…”
As she spoke, Chu Lan was ready to walk inside.
Lin Dong stretched out his hand to stop her and warned her again,
“I advise you to go home now, this ‘Master Hong,’ he’s no master. He’s not worthy of the title ‘Master’!”
Seeing this, Chu Lan angrily said, “Lin Dong, don’t think because you have some connections, you can dictate what I do!”
“I begged you to help me before, and you wouldn’t. Now that I want to seek Master Hong’s help, you’re stopping me?”
“Are you deliberately making life difficult for me?”
“Move aside, don’t block my path to becoming a hot online celebrity across the entire network!”
As she spoke, she broke free from Lin Dong’s grasp, and at the same time, she shouted to the side,
“Here is someone slandering Master Hong. He says Master Hong is a ‘bullshit master,’ a scammer, unworthy of the title of ‘master’…”
No sooner had she spoken than many eyes turned towards Lin Dong.
Some of them were disciples guarding the entrance of the Taoist temple, and others were propitious men and women who had come to seek an audience with Master Hong.
Now, they all looked at Lin Dong with ominous gazes as they approached.
One of the Taoist temple’s disciples, in particular, showed a fierce expression and shouted loudly,
“Master Hong must not be insulted! Kid, you dare to slander Master Hong here, you are seeking death!”
