“Yes! Young Master Ye is my master, and it was he who taught me the Ghost Valley Thirteen Needles!”
Lei Qianjue said with great respect, “Of course, I didn’t know before how incredible my master’s medical skills were!”
Lei Qianjue’s words paused, then he continued, “But I’m very curious! Clearly, my master’s medical skills are so impressive—he is standing right here, yet you still asked me to come? If my master can’t cure Elder Master Ren’s illness, my coming here would be a waste of effort!”
Ren Xueying had not even spoken yet when Ye Fan shrugged his shoulders and said, “Ah! They don’t trust me, no helping it… You’d better go in and take a look! The condition of the old man is critical; besides the previous problem of blood stasis causing blockage, there is also a buildup of toxins in his body. It would be best if you could resolve it, but if not, just call me!”
Not trust the master?
Lei Qianjue looked at Ren Xueying with a somewhat strange expression, his mind full of big question marks!
In this world, if even the master can’t cure the patient, what can I do?
My master taught me only a couple of moves from the Ghost Valley Thirteen Needles, and using them, Lei Qianjue had already successfully cured countless difficult and complicated illnesses! But in reality, the master possesses even more lost and secret techniques.
“Alright then!”
Lei Qianjue called out to Ye Fan and quickly stepped into the courtyard.
Ren Xueying stood in the courtyard still somewhat dazed. The Great Xia Medical Saint had truly personally admitted that Ye Fan was his master?
This was no joke!
If she hadn’t seen and heard it herself, Ren Xueying would never have dared to believe it.
“Brother Fan, this…” Ren Xueying almost wanted to laugh. Was this some kind of joke? What exactly had her father and second uncle done? This was entirely putting the cart before the horse; they had refused the help of the master, the Great Xia Medical Saint, in favor of inviting the disciple to treat their grandfather.
Ye Fan replied with an indifferent smile, “That’s the reality. Some time ago, Divine Doctor Lei insisted on kneeling and taking me as his master, and I had no choice but to agree. We exchanged some medical knowledge!”
“Ah! Brother Fan, you…” Ren Xueying was somewhat at a loss for words. She was quite sure that Lei Qianjue probably couldn’t cure her grandfather’s illness, and ultimately, they would have to request Brother Fan to take action.
At that time, where would her second and third uncles, as well as her father, place their faces?
This troublemaker!
“By the way! Xueying, the Doctor Mike your third uncle mentioned earlier, can you get in touch with him? If so, give him a call and ask him to come over, I have some questions to ask him later! Also, beef up the security in the Ren Family’s backyard; don’t let any suspicious people come and go freely!”
Ye Fan was sure there was something wrong with that Doctor Mike, so he planned to confront Mike and Ren Zhengyu’s scheme face to face later.
“Okay!”
Although she did not understand why Ye Fan wanted to do this, Ren Xueying now fully trusted him and immediately gave orders for the Ren Family’s bodyguards to start taking action! Your next journey awaits at empire
…
In a small courtyard, the arrival of Lei Qianjue relieved everyone as they moved to the bedroom in the courtyard.
“Divine Doctor Lei, you’ve finally arrived! Thank goodness, please take a look at my father. He was vomiting blood a while ago and his body was convulsing; he’s only just improved a bit…”
Since Lei Qianjue had been invited by the second uncle, Ren Zhengchao, Ren Zhengchao hurriedly got up to greet him, his eyes full of prideful showing off.
“Humph! Such a waste of effort…” Ren Zhengyu, the third uncle, snorted coldly from the side, his eyes full of disdain.
Even the oldest brother, Ren Zhenghua, seemed to struggle to save face!
Although Ren Zhenghua was currently the one in overall control of the Ren Family, in reality, the three brothers were still competing with each other in secret.
As long as their father was still breathing, the second and third might listen to Ren Zhenghua.
But once their father passed away, it was likely that the second and third would vie for control of the Ren Family’s power.
“Good!” Lei Qianjue had witnessed Ye Fan and Ren Xueying’s intimate actions in the courtyard earlier and naturally knew that the old man before him was the grandfather of his future master’s wife, so of course, he didn’t dare to be careless.
He quickly began to take Elder Master Ren’s pulse and examine the condition of his leg.
After a moment, the diagnosis he made was exactly the same as Ye Fan had said. The reason for the paralysis of the leg was quite simple: clotted blood was blocking the meridians, which could basically be cleared by using the first three needles of the Ghost Valley Thirteen Needles that Ye Fan had taught.
But the key issue was that, in addition to the blood clot in his leg, the toxins accumulated in the old man’s body had reached the brink of collapse.
Lei Qianjue used a silver needle to prick Elder Master Ren’s vein and took a taste of the blood.
“This isn’t right!” Lei Qianjue’s brows furrowed tightly as he analyzed carefully.
Given the amount of poison in the old man’s blood, Elder Master Ren should have already passed away by now.
But now, the old man’s body was still persevering, and it seemed that his vitality was even gradually growing stronger.
What was going on?
Lei Qianjue turned Elder Master Ren’s body over and quickly saw a golden needle that had entered his body at the acupoint known as the Danzhong.
“Golden Needle Locking Life!”
Lei Qianjue couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly; this was another long-lost skill from the Herbal Classic of the Holy Farmer!
It could use the Golden Needle and the power of the Five Elements to seal away the life force of a person on the brink of death, buying time for treatment.
There was no need to say it—this must be his master’s work!
What a bunch of fools inside the house; his master had treated Elder Master Ren right under their noses and they were completely unaware!
Now Elder Master Ren’s condition was extremely troublesome!
With his current medical skills, Lei Qianjue could use acupuncture to clear the clotted blood and restore the leg to normal. But the crux of the issue was that once the blood clot in the leg was cleared, it would inevitably cause all the blood vessels in Elder Master Ren’s body to open, and the accumulated toxins would instantly spread throughout his body. At that time, there would be no cure!
Moreover, Lei Qianjue had only heard of such a heaven-defying technique as the Golden Needle Locking Life; he didn’t understand its principles and dared not move it rashly!
“Divine Doctor Lei, how is my father’s condition now?” Ren Zhengchao asked with hope, looking at Lei Qianjue. If Divine Doctor Lei could cure his father, it would be a great accomplishment for him.
“It’s very bad! He could pass away at any moment!” Lei Qianjue withdrew his hand and took off his gloves.
Such an action caused Ren Zhengchao and others to feel a sudden jolt in their hearts, “Then… Divine Doctor Lei, can you cure him? We are willing to pay any price!”
Lei Qianjue shook his head, “It’s not about money! My medical skills are limited, I can’t cure the old man’s illness!”
“Ah!” Lei Qianjue’s words instantly made the faces of Ren Zhenghua and Ren Zhengchao at the scene change dramatically. If something happened to their father now and he couldn’t even make it through today’s birthday celebration, then the Ren Family would be finished!
Only the third brother, Ren Zhengyu, had a sinister smile emerging at the corner of his mouth.
“However, my master can cure him!” Just when everyone was in utmost despair, Lei Qianjue’s words made Ren Zhenghua and Ren Zhengchao see intense hope once again.
“Ah! Quick… Divine Doctor Lei, where is your master? Please, hurry and invite him over, we are willing to pay any price…”
Lei Qianjue nodded, “Okay! I will bring him in now!”
Not twenty seconds later, Lei Qianjue brought Ye Fan and Ren Xueying back into the bedroom of the small courtyard.
Ran Zhengyu’s face darkened instantly when he saw Ye Fan coming in again, “Xueying, why did you bring this idiot back in? Didn’t we say not to let him come in and make trouble?”
Although Ren Zhengyu thought Ye Fan was an idiot, Ye Fan’s sharp gaze made Ren Zhengyu very uncomfortable, instinctively not wanting to see Ye Fan.
“You bastard! Who the hell are you calling an idiot? Show some respect for my master, or do you believe I’ll kill you?” Before anyone else could speak, Lei Qianjue exploded, pulling out the machete he was carrying and pointed the tip directly at Ren Zhengyu’s face…
