Lin Qing did not let Huang Shan wait for long. She then said, "In the next two days, I will go out to settle some matters. During this period of time, I will leave everything within the sect to you. Don't disappoint me."

When Huang Shan heard this, his heart shivered. He quickly said: "What ability do I, Huang, have to be able to do this?"

"I believe that you can do what you want," Lin Qing said flatly.

Sensing the unquestionable tone in Lin Qing's voice, Huang Shan knew that no matter how much he objected, it was useless. He could only comply.

"First, please be at ease Branch Lord. I, Huang Jun, will definitely spend all my energy thinking. During this period of time, I will definitely not let anything happen to the Tiger Gang." Huang Shan said solemnly.

Standing up, Lin Qing patted Huang Shan on the shoulder and said gently, "I really didn't misjudge you back then."

Hearing this, Huang Shan couldn't help but be excited. From a gatekeeper who was supported by Lin Qing all the way to the current steward of the Red Leaf Town's Tiger Gang. How could Huang Shan not feel grateful?

Although Hua Xianghong's death wish caused Huang Shan's heart to be filled with a desire for life and death, Steel-blooded men would eventually pass through this obstacle. At this moment, Huang Shan felt gratitude for Lin Qing's high regard for him.

Lin Qing could also feel Huang Shan's unstable mood. In response, Lin Qing merely smiled, patted Huang Shan's shoulders again before leaving with a smile, leaving Huang Shan alone.

Watching Lin Qing's figure leave, Huang Shan clenched his fists and said: "During this period of time, I will use my life to protect the Tiger Gang and will not let the Tiger Gang do anything."

Lin Qing did not care about what Huang Shan was thinking. When he exited the cave, he saw nearly two hundred members of the Tiger Gang waiting for him. When they saw this, a look of excitement appeared in their eyes.

Towards the Branch Lord who valued them so much, how could the people of the Tiger Faction in the cavern not be grateful?

Seeing the expressions of the crowd, Lin Qing sighed in her heart. I didn't expect my short speech and actions to have such an effect. This has truly exceeded Lin Qing's expectations.

Without waiting for Lin Qing to recover from her contemplation, the ten-odd people supported her with their arms. Before Lin Qing could understand what was going on, they all kowtowed.

Lin Qing was shocked. She didn't know what the action meant, so she wanted to help them up, but she found that the legs of these people were rooted to the ground, leaving her with no other choice.

"I wonder why everyone is doing this. If there's anything that I can do, please say it. If I can do it, I will definitely do it for you!" While they were panicking, Lin Qing could only say this.

The ten or so people who had knelt down started crying upon hearing Lin Qing's words. One of them hurriedly said, "Reporting to the Branch Lord, we are not here to beg for anything. We are only here to thank the Branch Lord for not leaving us."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing could not help but fall silent. Looking at the dozen or so helpers supporting each other, Lin Qing could not say anything. She did not do anything, yet this made her feel grateful in her heart.

Everyone said that the people of Green Forest were straightforward and generous. They were happy and resentful, when had they ever seen such a pathetic scene?

"Since all of you have suffered so much for the Tiger Gang, how could Lin Qing give up on all of you? This is what you deserve, and how can you do it in such a manner?" Lin Qing said in a low voice.

When the more than ten sect members heard this, they burst into tears. Even though the iron blooded man acted like a daughter, not a single one of the over two hundred sect members in the cave showed any sign of despising attitude.

According to the past, those who were injured in such a manner would be given a pension fee before they perish on their own. If it was those who had contributed greatly to the clan, or those who had a higher status, they might arrange for some things to be done for the latter half of their lives so that they could have something to rely on. However, unlike Lin Qing, she would definitely not need to pay a huge price in order to treat a wounded person well.

To place so much importance on these disabled Sect Leaders, the Tiger Gang members inside the cave all felt a strong sense of familiarity.

After today's incident, everyone could see that the scene of Lin Qing being hot-blooded, and a strong sense of admiration, even a sense of duty, lingered in their hearts. At this moment, a strong sense of belonging caused all the members of the Tiger Gang to view Lin Qing as a relative, with a sense of camaraderie.

At this moment, in this scene, Lin Qing could only remain silent.

After a long while, when she saw the ten-odd men still prostrating on the ground, she covered the sorrow in her heart and said with a forced smile, "Men have gold under their knees, so there's no need for this. I will treat you guys, but I think that you guys are worthy of this kind of treatment.

The eyes of the ten heavily injured and even dying people who were kneeling down in worship involuntarily lit up when they heard this. Unknowingly, his back began to straighten as he finally spoke with a solemn tone, "We will not let down the master's hopes for us. We will not let down the price we paid for treating us!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing also laughed, "Since that's the case, why are all of you kneeling down? What I want is a man who can stand on his own two feet, a man of iron and blood who can wield a sword and fight to the death, not a useless person who can only grovel and beg for death."

More than a dozen people looked ashamed. Thinking of how their hearts had turned to ashes after being injured, they all gave up on themselves. All of them felt apologetic to Helmsman Lin for having such high hopes for them.

"We met Helmsman Lin, that was our fortune, if not for you, we would have already died in our hearts. Today, we have already been valued highly by the Helmsman, so why do we have to be so stubborn, a man should eat five cauldrons, and die at least five cauldrons. Even if we cannot be treated, we are still men of iron and blood, so we will not have such a daughter." One of them stood up, his injured body, although he was not allowed to stand, but he still endured the pain from his back, straightening his back.

"Good, good. He is the person under my command, and also the elite under my command." Lin Qing laughed heartily as he spoke, showing his joy without a doubt.

The reason why Lin Qing made the previous decision to treat this injured person was because she had thought of whether the huge cost in treating it was worth it or not. In regards to this, Lin Qing was also hesitant in her heart.

At this moment, seeing how the crowd was acting, Lin Qing knew that she had made a mistake. She had to do this because of a single word, 'worth it'.
