Cultivation Online Chapter 496

"Although you can move again, I suggest you let Doctor Wang take a look at your body just in case," Meifeng said.
"You're right. I will call him now."
"Umm… Can I borrow your phone?" Yuan asked Meixiu.
Once he had Meixiu's phone, Yuan personally called Doctor Wang.
Now that he could finally move properly, he wanted to do everything for himself no matter how little the thing is.
"Good morning, Meixiu." Doctor Wang's voice resounded a moment later.
"Hello, Doctor Wang."
"Hmm? This voice… The Young Master?"
"Yes. I am wondering when will you be free? I'd like you to come and take a look at my condition. Oh, can you bring Wang Xiuying here as well if possible?"
"You need the both of us there to check your condition? That doesn't sound good. Did something happen?" Doctor Wang asked in a worried voice.
"Yes, something insane happened."
"Can you explain it to me through the phone?"
"I could, but I think it would be better for you to see it for yourselves," said Yuan with a smile on his face.
"Though you don't have to rush here. Take your time."
Hearing this, Doctor Wang thought to himself that if the situation wasn't urgent enough to rush them, it probably isn't that bad.
However, he didn't want to take any chances.
"I understand. I will try to show up as soon as possible, and I will also let Wang Xiuying know."
"Thank you, Doctor Wang. I will see you later."
After Yuan hung up, Meifeng asked him, "Young Master, I must ask you this now that you're able to move again… Do you intend on playing the instrument again?"
"Playing the instrument, huh…" Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking, "After playing the zither in Cultivation Online, I have realized that I don't hate playing music or instruments. Instead, it was the Yu Family that made everything feel like a chore. In other words, yes, I want to continue playing the instruments, but I won't return to the professional scene."

"I see…"
A warm smile appeared on Meifeng's face.
"Speaking of instruments, I don't have any of them…" Yuan then said.
"It's okay, I can buy some for you," Meifeng said.
And she continued, "I have many connections in the music industry after working for the Yu Family for many years, so I know who to contact for instruments. What do you have in mind? I can buy them for you, too."
Yuan shook his head and said, "It's okay, Miss Meifeng, you don't need to pay for them. We should have enough money to buy the instruments on our own."
"If you're talking about the money Meixiu saved up from working, I don't think it'll be enough..."
"We'd earned a decent amount of money from selling treasures we find in Cultivation Online on the auction house," he said.
"Even if you say that, instruments aren't cheap, especially not the ones I intend on buying you. They're all created by famous companies with centuries of experience. You only deserve to play on the best of the best instruments, after all."
"We have half a billion, so money isn't an issue for us right now." Meixiu suddenly said after returning from cleaning the dishes.
"Half a billion…? You earned that much through selling treasures in Cultivation Online?" Meifeng was speechless.
Although she was aware of how profitable playing Cultivation Online was, she didn't think it was possible to earn that much money in such a short time.
Yuan nodded, "We got pretty lucky."
Sometime later, Meixiu looked at her mother and asked, "Don't you need to be at work?"
"I took a vacation three days ago, so I don't have to go back to work for another week," she said, as she had anticipated that something might happen to them after learning that the Yu Family intended to take Meixiu back forcefully, so she took a week off just in case.

"Miss Meifeng… Would you leave the Yu Family if you had the chance?" Yuan suddenly asked her.
"It isn't easy leaving the Yu Family, as I am bound to a contract with the Yu Family. If I want to leave before my contract is finished, I must pay an exorbitant amount of money, and the Yu Family must also agree to let me go, which is highly unlikely." Meifeng said.
"When will the contract end?" Yuan then asked.
"50 years."
"F-Fifty years?!" Yuan was shocked to hear this.
"The contract started out as 5 years, but they continued to increase the duration until it reached 50 years. I didn't mind it either since I got paid a lot of money and I had no reason to refuse."
"Out of curiosity… How much do you have to pay if you want to leave the Yu Family?" Yuan asked her.
"Fifty billion dollars— one billion for every year on the contract."
"Fifty billion…" Yuan repeated in a low voice.
Unless Meifeng borrowed money from others, there was simply no way that she'd be able to pay such an exorbitant amount.
"Anyways, I don't really have any reasons to leave the Yu Family right now. Despite their recent actions against Meixiu, it was mostly due to the influence of the Cultivators' Association, and they don't treat me badly either. While I have a lot of work to do, I am already used to it by now, and I am compensated for it with generous pay."
After a slight pause, Meifeng continued, "However… If the Young Master asks me to leave the Yu Family to work for him, I will have a good reason to leave."
"You can stay at the Yu Family. I can take care of him by myself just fine." Meixiu suddenly said while staring at Meifeng with an ambitious look on her face.
Meifeng smiled inwardly at Meixiu's words.
"Don't worry, I won't steal the Young Master from you. With that being said, I will stay here until my vacation is over, as the incident from last night hasn't concluded just yet." Meifeng said a moment later, reminding them that they might still be in danger.
