Chapter 175: My Master Can Save

~7 min read 1,313 words

On the third day after the Huo family patriarch arrived in the southwest, Huo Shui Xian contacted Lin Yang.

When Lin Yang arrived outside the Heavenly Brocade Suite, Huo Shui Xian came out, looking troubled.

"Mr. Lin, something unexpected has happened."

Seeing Huo Shui Xian's troubled expression, Lin Yang couldn't help but frown and say.

"That shouldn't be; how did your grandfather die?"

Upon hearing that, Huo Shui Xian knew Lin Yang had misunderstood.

She immediately waved her hand and said, "My grandfather is fine; it's just my father..."

At that moment, Huo Zhifei walked out.

Upon seeing Lin Yang, he was full of excitement.

He rushed over and grabbed Lin Yang's hand.

"Mr. Lin, I've really recovered a lot; I can even lift my head now!"

Huo Shui Xian looked at her excited second uncle, her eyes full of doubt.

Could it be that her second uncle has a neck problem? How did she not notice it before?

At that moment, Huo Zhifei realized Huo Shui Xian was still nearby.

He coughed once, pulled Xiao Chen, and went inside.

Upon entering the room, he was about to ask Lin Yang to prescribe more doses of medicine when Huo Zhidong's voice sounded.

"Old Two, didn't you send someone to fetch that divine doctor? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Upon hearing that, Huo Zhifei felt somewhat guilty and glanced at Lin Yang.

At that moment, Huo Zhidong walked over.

"I'm talking to you; why aren't you answering?"

Midway through speaking, upon seeing Lin Yang to the side, he suddenly paused.

Lin Yang saw their appearance and also smiled.

"You must have invited someone else; then I'll leave."

Huo Zhidong chuckled and said, "Making you run this trip for nothing, really troublesome."

Looking at his appearance, Lin Yang said.

"When I treated him, your father was fine; if you bring in others and something happens, it has nothing to do with me."

As a shrewd businessman, Huo Zhidong did not immediately agree after hearing Lin Yang's words.

He pondered for a moment, then showed Lin Yang a smile.

"Mr. Lin, you are a doctor, my father is the patient, and last time we also paid."

"Both emotionally and logically, you should stay to take a look before leaving."

Afraid Lin Yang would refuse, Huo Zhidong immediately guaranteed.

"As long as you get past today, if anything happens later, we won't come looking for you."

Lin Yang let out a cold snort, looking at Huo Zhidong and said.

"Boss Huo, do you think besides you being shrewd, everyone else is an idiot?"

"Since you've found others to treat the illness, what does it have to do with me?"

Seeing Lin Yang about to leave, Huo Zhidong's face darkened, and he clapped his hands.

"Then don't blame me!"

In an instant, ten bodyguards appeared inside the room, surrounding Lin Yang.

These bodyguards are all internal-energy martial artists; from this we can see just how wealthy the Huo family is.

"Mr. Lin, you are a doctor, although you are a Xuánmén person, but here we have ten top-tier martial artists; they could subdue you before you even unleash your mystic arts!"

These ten were all transferred by Huo Zhidong from the Huo family in Xianggang.

He was very confident about these ten.

Lin Yang looked at them and also showed a smile.

"Just ten people, and you think you can trap me?"

The smile vanished from his face, and killing intent burst from his body.

Inside the entire suite, it instantly felt like falling into an ice cellar.

The ten martial artists at the forefront were frightened into staying rooted, not daring to move.

They had an intuition that if they moved at all, they would be killed instantly.

"Mr. Huo, do you think these ten of yours dare to move against me?"

"Hmph!"

Having said that, he left directly.

After Lin Yang left, Huo Shui Xian looked at her father.

"Dad, what if something happens to Grandfather?"

"What if the person you invited can't cure Grandfather?"

Huo Zhidong immediately shook his head and said, "Impossible; the person I invited is the southwest's number one divine doctor!"

"Since he's the southwest's number one divine doctor, his medical skill must be superior to Lin Yang's!"

Hearing her father say that, Huo Shui Xian could only sigh.

After they waited half an hour, Huo An brought Sun Jiacheng to the suite.

Seeing Sun Jiacheng's youthful face and crane-like hair, wearing a Zhongshan suit, Huo Zhidong was very pleased.

"Old Two is reliable; this is the bearing of a divine doctor, far better than him!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Shui Xian naturally knew they were talking about Lin Yang.

She tried to speak several times, but ultimately she just sighed.

At this moment, Huo Zhifei came before Sun Jiacheng.

"Divine Doctor Sun, are you really confident you can cure my father?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Jiacheng chuckled and said.

"You said a youngster could treat your father—how could I, an old man, be inferior to a youngster?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll leave right now."

Hearing Sun Jiacheng say he would leave, Huo Zhifei immediately apologized.

"Sorry, Divine Doctor Sun, I misspoke just now; please don't take it to heart."

"You are the Southwest's Number One Divine Doctor; naturally there's no one you can't cure."

Huo Zhidong also agreed: "That's right, you are the Southwest's Divine Doctor."

Sun Jiacheng chuckled, shook his head, and said.

"I dare not claim the title of Number One Divine Doctor; my master is still alive, and his medical skill far surpasses mine."

"However, the Taiyi Nine Needles he taught me can already treat many serious illnesses."

Saying this, he walked to the bedside of the Huo family patriarch.

Looking at the Huo family patriarch's face, which had some color, he couldn't help but smile.

"It doesn't look like a serious illness; let me first take his pulse."

Upon hearing Sun Jiacheng say it wasn't a serious illness, both Huo brothers breathed a sigh of relief.

They just quietly watched Sun Jiacheng take the pulse.

However, Sun Jiacheng's expression grew increasingly grim.

"How is he still alive?!"

Hearing Sun Jiacheng's words, Huo Zhidong immediately pressed for more.

"What do you mean?"

Sun Jiacheng took out a silver needle, furrowed his brows, and said.

"He does have a pulse, but the vital energy of his five organs is almost gone; there's only a faint trace of life."

"Logically, at his age, having reached this point, he should have already passed away."

"It seems money truly can defy fate and keep him alive until now."

Hearing Sun Jiacheng say this, Huo Zhidong anxiously asked.

"Can you still save him?"

Sun Jiacheng, holding the silver needle, fell silent; he held the needle for a long time without being able to bring himself to use it.

"I still can't do it; I haven't fully mastered the Taiyi Nine Needles."

Hearing Sun Jiacheng say this, Huo Zhidong anxiously said.

"Could it be that my father truly cannot be saved?"

Sun Jiacheng shook his head.

Seeing Sun Jiacheng shake his head, the four members of the Huo family were overcome with despair.

In their despair, they then heard Sun Jiacheng say.

"There is hope; if we summon my master, he will surely be able to save your father."

Upon hearing there was hope, the Huo family members were all stirred.

Huo Zhifei let out a breath of relief and said to Sun Jiacheng.

"Divine Doctor Sun, next time you speak, please finish in one go, or you'll scare people to death."

"I've been scared into a sweat by you."

"By the way, what's your master's name and where does he live? I'll go fetch him right away."

Huo Zhidong also smiled and nodded, saying: "Yeah, we'll go fetch him right away."

Sun Jiacheng smiled and said.

"His name is Lin Yang."
