Chapter: 1316 (2/2)

“Physician, I beg of you to save my great-grandfather,” a young lady from the group said anxiously.

“Yan`er, don’t be making it hard on him. I know my own condition well. No one can save me. This is unless I can attain a breakthrough to False God within three days,” the old man shook his head and said, very much at ease.

“Even if you don’t attain a breakthrough to False God, you can still extend your lifespan.”

Just then, a voice rang out abruptly. The person who had spoke was naturally Qing Shui. He walked up directly.

The young man who had suddenly appeared took everyone by surprise. The old physician looked at Qing Shui then shook his head and averted his gaze.

“Are you really able to save my great-grandfather?” The lady from earlier looked at Qing Shui in surprise. It could be because she was left with no other options and was just trying any random option she had. Either that or it could be because this young man appeared to be very reliable.

“Thank you for your kind intentions but it’s impossible,” the old man looked toward Qing Shui and said, smiling.

Qing Shui was far too young, so young that it was unbelievable.

“Even our Old Master isn’t able to do anything. To think that a young kid who is hardly dry behind his ears would dare to say such arrogant words. Do you know who our Old Master is?” Just then, a voice of disdain rang out.

Qing Shui looked toward the source of the person who spoke. It was a young man next to the old physician. The young man looked very handsome but was too arrogant. He was arrogant like a rooster.

“Ye`er, how many times have I told you? If you were to carry on like this, you will never be able to learn true medical skills. Your mental state is easily shaken and you aren’t cut out to be a physician.”

The old man then looked toward Qing Shui, “Mister, please don’t take this to heart. I apologize on his behalf. Old Master Li’s lifespan is at its end. Do you really have a way to help him?”

The old physician’s tone was very calm and no one could see any fluctuations to his emotions or expressions. At the very least, Qing Shui didn’t see any signs of the old man looking down on him. Usually, for a powerful physician to reach the old man’s level, it would be a reflex reaction for them to harbor feelings disgust toward Qing Shui. It was because no one was able to save a patient whose lifespan was up. Even the effects of some medicinal pills were limited and they were basically useless now. Therefore, it was as if a young man from his previous life were to say that he could treat cancer in the final stage. It was impossible for anyone to believe that.

Under such a circumstance, the old physician had yet to display any hint of dissatisfaction.

“I won’t mind the words of a clown. Removing the impurities from his body, removing some of the hidden illnesses and impurities in his body would allow his lifespan to increase. Half of his lifespan has been restricted by the hidden illnesses and impurities in his body,” Qing Shui smiled and said.

When the old physician heard Qing Shui’s words, he was still very calm. It was because this was a commonly known fact. It was how, in Qing Shui’s previous life, it was theoretically possible that to cure cancer, one had to eliminate all cancer cells to allow the body to recover to normal. However, who was really able to do that?

“Mister, are you able to remove the damage left behind by these impurities and hidden illnesses?” The old physician looked at Qing Shui.

“I can but I can’t remove them entirely. However, I can remove some of them,” Qing Shui spoke with confidence.

A gleam of light burst out from the old physician’s eyes and he looked at Qing Shui seriously. Qing Shui also looked back at him calmly. After a very long time, the old physician looked toward the old man on the deck chair and said, “Old Master Li, let this physician give it a try!”

“Then I’ll be troubling you, young physician.” The old man nodded toward Soulsearch before he spoke politely to Qing Shui.

“It’s not convenient here,” Qing Shui smiled and said.

Naturally, they agreed and immediately headed back. Many physicians have their own taboos and thus what Qing Shui requested wasn’t strange.

The old physician and the young man by the name of Ye`er went along as well. However, the young man was full of contempt and also appeared to have a hint of viciousness. Earlier on, if it wasn’t that the old physician had stopped him, he would have raised his hands against Qing Shui. He was half a disciple to the old physician due to the relationship his clan had with the old physician. Otherwise, the old physician wouldn’t have kept him by his side.

Li Clan!

Li Clan was quite a big clan in the Yehuang City. Most importantly, the branch here was not the main branch. However, the name Li Clan was quite useful.

The group of people went to a quiet courtyard which was not big. It wasn’t much better than the residence of an ordinary person and was considered the most ordinary manor in the capital city.

The hall wasn’t big but it was very clean. Qing Shui remained very calm all this time. He didn’t mention any compensation after treating the old man. It could be because they didn’t believe that Qing Shui could treat him. Moreover, it wouldn’t be too late to give the compensation after he was healed or after the treatment.

Qing Shui let the old man take off his clothes and shoes, leaving only his pants and revealing his feet and upper body. Qing Shui took out a box of gold needles. For now, he would not treat the old man completely and was just planning to extend his lifespan for several decades, not more than 100 years. It was because he didn’t want to appear too abrupt.

He applied the gold needles on several major acupuncture points on the old man, including the Tianji, Shenque and other acupuncture point which many other physicians wouldn’t dare to touch. In the process, the old physician seemed to have wanted to stop him but after seeing the way Qing Shui applied the needles, he kept silent.

Healing some of the hidden ailments in the old man’s body, Qing Shui concurrently forced out some of the impurities in his body to the Zhiyin point on the bottom of his feet. When he felt that it was about sufficient, he then applied a gold needle on the Zhiyin spot.

A stream of force bounced out.

Nine Yang Gold Needle, Nine Yang Force!

A drop of black liquid dripped down, following the gold needle. It was followed by another drop. The room was filled with a powerful stench.

At this moment, the old physician’s countenance finally changed as he looked at Qing Shui in disbelief. He, Soulsearch, had been called a Ghost Physician by others and even many powerful cultivators would have to politely address him as Old Master when they met him.
