The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

"Thump"

Ling Yun leaped into the air like a whale, soaring high into the sky, and then plunged into the heated swimming pool.

After four or five breaths, the surface of the water in the center of the pool suddenly broke open, and Ling Yun emerged from the water.

Then, swinging his arms, he swam quickly to the other side of the pool.

In mid-November, on the Hong Kong Island morning, especially at the Peak, which is located at a slightly higher elevation, the temperature was still a bit chilly!

However, the water temperature in the heated pool was just right and very comfortable.

With Lingyun's robust physique honed through long-term, continuous training, the slight chill in the morning air had no effect on him.

Once inside the pool, this effect simply disappears.

The pool water was freshly changed yesterday; it was crystal clear and even had a faint fragrance.

The numerous green plants and flowers placed and planted in the back garden are either lush and verdant or blooming proudly, releasing a rich fragrance of grass and flowers.

Exercising in such an environment in the morning is undoubtedly a very enjoyable experience.

In no time, Ling Yun had swum to the north side of the pool.

Then I stood up by the pool, looking over the edge of the pool and the green wall of the garden, towards Victoria Harbour and Central Hong Kong Island below.

His top-tier mansion is located at the highest point of Victoria Peak, facing south, in an excellent location!

Living in this top-tier luxury residence, you can enjoy the most beautiful urban landscape, as well as natural and cultural attractions on Hong Kong Island, without ever leaving the house.

From Lingyun's location, one can see the famous Victoria Harbour, the skyscrapers of Central, and Kowloon across the sea.

Although it was daytime, the scenery at the foot of the mountain and on the sea was still very beautiful. Compared to the dazzling lights at night, it had a more down-to-earth feel and less of the decadent glamour!

Looking up from the foot of the mountain to the top of Victoria Peak, people can only look up and gaze.

Especially for locals on Hong Kong Island, many people look towards the Peak with envy and anticipation!

"No wonder everyone on Hong Kong Island longs for the life on the Peak; that feeling of looking down on everyone else from such a high vantage point is truly exhilarating!"

While enjoying the scenery, Lingyun chuckled and made a couple of sarcastic remarks.

After experiencing that wonderful feeling by the pool for a while, he turned around, plunged back into the water, and continued his morning exercise!

Just like before in Beijing, he exercised for about an hour in the morning before coming out of the pool and going upstairs to wash up and change clothes.

By the time he changed his clothes and came downstairs, the chefs had already prepared breakfast.

Lingyun invited the butler, Lao Li, into the main building for a meal, so that Lao Li could introduce the top-tier mansion and familiarize him with the surrounding environment.

Although he owns this top-tier mansion, he is far less familiar with it than Old Li!

Next, Lao Li first introduced the interior of the villa, including the two annex buildings and the underground space.

This main building is naturally Ling Yun's residence. Without his permission, no one, including his beautiful girlfriends and all the service staff, including Lao Li, are allowed to enter.

This arrangement was made to protect Lingyun's personal privacy and business secrets.

He has too many secrets, and many of them are crucial. In addition, he has many girlfriends. How can he not designate the main building as a forbidden area?

Today, the highest level of security control over this hilltop mansion, especially the main building, will be handed over to Ling Yun.

Once he gains ultimate control of the villa, he will have complete control over everything there.

From the villa's main gate lock, to the surveillance cameras and hidden probes throughout the villa, the top-notch security system, and the numerous safes of various sizes hidden in various places within the villa, Ling Yun will personally have ultimate control over everything!

Only with his authorization and the release of some permissions can Lao Li and his team obtain certain management rights.

For example, surveillance cameras, hidden cameras, infrared sensors, etc., installed in various corners of the villa.

Lingyun would naturally not authorize Lao Li and his group to access all the surveillance cameras inside the main building, the back garden pool, and the basement of the main building, in order to protect the privacy of the group members.

The monitoring permissions they can obtain are limited to areas outside the main building, and are only required to meet security needs!

Moreover, all the surveillance cameras can be remotely controlled, so even if Lingyun is not in Hong Kong Island, he can keep track of the situation in this top-tier mansion at any time.

As for the two annex buildings, they are used by Lao Li and his team; one is used by the internal affairs team, and the other by the security team.

In no time at all, Old Li quickly finished introducing the interior of the villa.

Then, he changed the subject.

"Since you live in this hilltop mansion, it's necessary to understand the surrounding area, such as who your neighbors are, as you might have to deal with them in the future."

"The hilltop mansion of Li Ka-shing's eldest son is just three or four hundred meters to the west. Standing on the roof of the third floor of the villa, you can see the roof of that mansion."

"As far as I know, Li Ka-shing and his son, Li Ka-shing's son, come here from time to time to reunite with their eldest son's family and teach their two sons his business acumen."

"The mansions of the Huo and Dong families are also nearby, only five or six hundred meters apart. Mr. Liu, who returned to Hong Kong Island with you last night, also owns a top-tier mansion in this area."

"Besides them, many wealthy and well-known families on Hong Kong Island have clustered in The Peak and Mid-Levels, which means that The Peak and Mid-Levels will always be the focus of attention for all Hong Kong citizens."

"On many streets in the Peak and Mid-Levels, large numbers of paparazzi are stationed year-round, loitering around all day, trying to capture various news about Hong Kong's wealthy elites."

"You live here and have many celebrity friends. Siyuan Capital not only owns film and television companies but is also a major player in the entertainment industry. You must be wary of these paparazzi!"

At this point, Old Li seemed to realize something and suddenly stopped talking.

A smile quickly appeared on his face as he looked at Ling Yun with a smile.

Ling Yun was stunned for a moment, then his old face turned red.

He instantly understood why Old Li had suddenly paused.

Clearly, Lao Li also knew of Da Meiyuan and the others' existence, and knew that they were all Ling Yun's women.

The celebrity girlfriends I just mentioned refer to Da Mei Yuan and her friends!

And this is just the beginning. As the chairman of Lingyun Siyuan Capital and a tycoon in the entertainment industry, no one knows how many more beautiful female celebrities he will provoke in the future!

After a brief pause, Lao Li continued his introduction.

"About 300 meters east of this top-tier mansion, behind that grove of trees, there is a smaller detached villa. That villa is currently used by the Central Government Office, but no one outside knows about it."

"As instructed by your superiors, that villa will serve as your backup accommodation. If you encounter any trouble and need to temporarily change your residence, you can quickly move to that villa."

"In addition, a team of armed special agents will be stationed in that villa, on standby at all times. If anything changes here and you encounter danger, they can come to your aid immediately..."

Hearing Old Li's introduction, Ling Yun couldn't help but feel flattered.

"Isn't this a bit of an exaggeration? I just work in the financial investment field; no matter how rich I am, I'm still just an ordinary person."

"This kind of special treatment is something even the president of a major country wouldn't receive when visiting Hong Kong! What have I done to deserve this?"

Old Li smiled and replied:

"I don't know about other things, but just the fact that you helped Yuanda Investment sweep through the international financial markets deserves this special treatment!"

"You have no idea how many people in Hong Kong are closely watching Yuanda Investment's every move right now; it's no exaggeration to say that the entire nation is paying attention!"

"If people knew that you, the mastermind behind this massive investment, had arrived and were staying here, the entire mountaintop would be packed to capacity today!"
