Chapter 1709: The Problem Is Quite Serious
"Over these years, we have tried almost every method, but there is no way to truly cure us, which is why we came to the Apocalypse Society. Since there is no way to solve our problems, we have no choice but to place our hope in the gods."
"Your problems are indeed quite serious." Chen Yu nodded slightly and mused, "Give me some time. I will prepare some medicine. After you apply it, the ulcerated skin will heal and recover to be exactly as it was before."
"Are you telling the truth?" Wang Dashan raised his head and looked at Chen Yu earnestly. To be honest, he did not believe Chen Yu's words.
They had exhausted every method over these years and could not cure the wounds on their bodies; what right did Chen Yu have to say he could solve it?
"I need three to five days," Chen Yu said indifferently. "After all, for some Heavenly Treasures, the stimulation of their medicinal power cannot be done in a moment."
"Three to five days? That's too long." Wang Dashan was startled, his expression showing a hint of disappointment. He turned his head to look at Shandao, "It seems the person you found isn't much either."
"Brother Dashan, I can stake my character on it; I am absolutely not lying. My wife is at home right now. If you don't believe me, you can follow me to my house to see." Shandao's expression was somewhat agitated.
"Heh, who knows what kind of scheme you're plotting? If we go to your house, what if you use other methods to deal with us?" The group of people behind Wang Dashan spoke up.
"That's right, human hearts are sinister. We are all people who have been deceived before, and we cannot be deceived a second time now."
The group discussed among themselves, their gazes toward Chen Yu somewhat fierce. After all, these people had suffered greatly, so they instinctively did not trust anyone.
"Do you have any value for me to exploit?" Chen Yu sneered, raising his head to look at the group before him.
These people were all former employees of this processing plant who had become like this due to a nuclear leak. They had suffered immensely over these years and were struggling on the edge of life and death.
"You are at the very bottom of society. Don't talk to me about living conditions; you even have trouble just eating. So, are you worth me going to such great lengths to deceive you?" Chen Yu said coldly.
Everyone fell into Silence. Although Chen Yu's words were somewhat hurtful, they were indeed quite reasonable. What did these people have that was worth Chen Yu going to such great lengths to deceive?
"What you say seems to make sense, but I still want to figure out what your true purpose is." Wang Dashan raised his head and looked straight at Chen Yu, "So there is nothing for us to talk about."
"You need me to show you a trick, right?" Chen Yu paused and pointed at the one-armed middle-aged man, "Who is this to you?"
"My lifesaver. I came here as a stowaway; if it weren't for him, I would have died long ago." Wang Dashan looked at Chen Yu strangely, "What's wrong? Does our business have anything to do with him?"
"How did he lose his arm?" Chen Yu smiled slightly.
"A natural disaster." The one-armed middle-aged man raised his head to look at Chen Yu, "I lost it during a volcanic eruption once. I nearly lost my life that time, but I held on in the end. The price was losing an arm."
"Then do you believe that a severed limb can undergo Regeneration?" Chen Yu explained casually, "The kind that allows an arm to grow back?"
"Heh, how much credibility do you think something that only exists in science fiction movies has?" The middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh.
"You have all chosen to believe in gods, so what else is there that you cannot accept?" Chen Yu sneered.
"At least they have demonstrated their divine miracles." The one-armed man sneered, "Much better than someone like you who makes empty claims, right?"
"Hmm, indeed. If I don't show you a trick, in your eyes, I am just boasting." Chen Yu said indifferently, "In that case, I don't mind showing you a trick—for example, making your arm grow back."
"My arm growing back?" The one-armed man was slightly stunned. He looked at Chen Yu in disbelief, "What do you mean? Is this what you call severed limb Regeneration?"
"Yes, severed limb Regeneration." Chen Yu nodded, "Making your severed arm grow back out."
"Are you not joking with me?" Wang Dashan took a step forward, staring coldly at Chen Yu. In truth, he was still somewhat tempted.
He knew Shandao was not a fool. Since he trusted Chen Yu so much, Chen Yu must have some means.
"Dashan, don't trust him. Human hearts are unpredictable; who knows if he has other motives?" The one-armed man glanced coldly at Chen Yu; he did not trust Chen Yu.
"There is an opportunity right before your eyes now; do you really not want to try?" Chen Yu smiled slightly, "If you lose this chance, you will never have such a good opportunity again."
"Heh, I don't believe in severed limb Regeneration." The one-armed man stared at Chen Yu and sneered, "Besides, you won't help me for free. In other words, even if you really have the ability to do this, the price I pay must be equivalent."
"If you think that way, it's truly unsolvable." Chen Yu spread his hands and said helplessly, "Between people, there should be more trust. I have no other intentions today; I simply want to gain your trust."
"And after gaining our trust?" The one-armed man sneered.
"To let you know what kind of place the church you are in really is. It is Hell. If there is anyone in this world who can save you, that person will definitely not be the Apocalypse Society, but me." Chen Yu said indifferently. He suddenly pointed his right hand into the void, and the one-armed man's body stiffened, floating in mid-air.
"What are you doing?" Wang Dashan was furious. He stepped forward and swung a fist at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu swung his right palm outward. With a 'Boom—', a wave of Primordial Qi whistled out, isolating these people on the outside.
A visible wave of Primordial Qi appeared, and the whistling Original Power forced everyone to retreat involuntarily.
Chen Yu took out a Spirit Herb. This Spirit Herb was named 'Duanxu Grass'. He continuously channeled his right hand to dissolve the medicinal power of the Spirit Herb, then pointed into the void, and the medicinal power from the herb slowly floated toward the one-armed man in mid-air.
The man let out a scream. The meridians at the edge of his severed arm bulged like earthworms.
As the medicinal power from Chen Yu's hand poured in, the overbearing medicinal power wandered through the man's body. The man screamed hoarsely, his muscles at the site of the severed arm feeling a tearing pain, and immediately after, his muscles surged outward frantically.
