She turned deathly pale and said to Lin Yang.

"Mr. Lin, you must be mistaken."

"This feng shui master has no acquaintance with us whatsoever, and there is no hatred between us!"

Lin Yang shook his head, walked up to Jia Xiangyang, and placed a hand on his wrist.

"He not only poisoned him but also used a formation to drain his vitality."

"If this doesn't count as enmity, what would?"

Jia Qianqian heard this and her face turned even paler.

Lin Yang looked at the person on the bed and took out a silver needle.

"I can extend his life force."

"But that comes at an additional price."

I am unfamiliar with both Jia Qianqian and Wu Shiya.

Since I am going to intervene, I will charge a fee.

Jia Qianqian immediately said.

"Please go ahead and treat him!"

"No matter how much it costs, I will pay!"

Lin Yang nodded, and just as he was about to act, a voice sounded from outside.

"Qianqian, I've brought Master Zhu."

"He will surely be able to cure Uncle Jia's illness!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Qianqian hesitated and glanced at Lin Yang.

Lin Yang also put away his silver needle and said to her.

"Since you have found a master, let him come."

"Please don't misunderstand; it was a friend of mine who, upon hearing my father's mishap, took it upon himself to find this person."

Although I have never seen Lin Yang act.

But she also did not want to just let Lin Yang leave like that.

If the person that Luo Cheng invited cannot cure my father, then let Lin Yang step in to treat him.

Now she does not want to give up any hope.

At that moment, Luo Cheng entered with a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man wore plain Tang clothing, cloth shoes, hands clasped behind his back, giving the air of an expert.

As soon as he entered, his gaze swept around.

As Luo Cheng stepped inside, he immediately noticed the unfamiliar man, Lin Yang.

He smiled and asked.

"Qianqian, who is this..."

"He is called Lin Yang, a Chinese medicine practitioner whom I invited to treat Uncle Jia."

"Chinese medicine?"

Luo Cheng raised his eyebrows and then smiled.

"He is also a medical school student; Shiya really went to great lengths."

"However, Chinese medicine requires years to accumulate experience; this brother..."

Although he did not continue, the meaning was already clear.

Lin Yang is too young; he surely cannot cure the illness.

At that moment, the hitherto silent master suddenly spoke.

"This is not an illness; he is possessed by a minor spirit."

"Just taking medicine will never cure it!"

Saying this, he produced a yellow talisman, went through a series of mystic gestures, and then said.

"Burn this talisman of mine, dissolve the ashes in water and drink it; I guarantee he will recover within three days."

Upon hearing this, Jia Qianqian felt uncertain.

If it were before, he would surely have driven away this so-called Master Zhu.

She would not believe in such nonsense as a minor spirit possession.

But now, both Lin Yang and Master Zhu are saying it is that sort of thing.

This left her with no choice but to believe.

"Pfft."

Lin Yang could not help laughing out loud.

Indeed, nowadays anyone can become a master.

Even someone who cannot draw a talisman properly dares to call himself a master.

Moreover, that yellow talisman has not a trace of spiritual energy; it is essentially just a yellow piece of paper.

Hearing Lin Yang's laughter, everyone turned their gazes toward him.

Master Zhu's face darkened and he said.

"What are you laughing at!"

"I laugh at the charade of drinking talisman water; people still pull this stunt nowadays."

Both Master Zhu and Luo Cheng's faces simultaneously turned grim.

Luo Cheng asked in a low voice: "What do you mean by this? Are you doubting Master Zhu?"

Lin Yang smiled, looked at Master Zhu, and said.

"If you drink this talisman water, aside from vomiting and diarrhea, it basically has no effect."

Upon hearing Lin Yang's words, Luo Cheng flew into a rage.

"You're full of shit, you little brat from a medical college, what do you know?"

Lin Yang gave a hehe laugh, looked at Master Zhu, and said.

"The one who drew the talisman has not a trace of spiritual energy; what can this talisman of yours do besides deceiving people?"

Master Zhu's face darkened, he took out his peach wood sword, and pointed it at Lin Yang.

"Miss Jia, he is the culprit who brought disaster to your Jia family; he is the reincarnation of an evil star."

"You now wish me, except for this evil star, your family's calamity would naturally disappear."

Having said that, a sword thrust straight for Lin Yang's throat.

Lin Yang stood in place, not even willing to move a step.

He raised his hand, a finger pressed on the sword tip, and the peach wood sword shattered directly into wood chips.

Master Zhu, too, as if struck heavily, spat out a mouthful of blood.

He lay on the ground, looking at Lin Yang with terror and despair.

"You... you really are an evil star."

Lin Yang shook his head and said.

"What nonsense, you just made it up off the top of your head."

He sucked with his hand, grabbing the wood chips in his palm.

"I'll give you one chance: explain your background clearly, or I'll kill you."

"A scholar may be killed but not humiliated!"

Having just said that, the wood chips in Lin Yang's hand scraped his cheek and nailed to the wall.

"Next time, these wood chips will pierce your throat."

Having said that, he sucked the wood chips into his hand.

This move shocked everyone present.

They never expected Lin Yang to be a martial arts master.

Master Zhu even dropped to his knees, begging for mercy.

"Please don't kill me; all this was Luo Cheng's doing."

"I was originally an opera troupe performer; he paid a thousand bucks to hire me to pose as a master!"

Lin Yang also found it funny—can you chase a girl like this?

Luo Cheng, exposed and furious, glared at Master Zhu.

"You bastard, you deliberately framed me!"

"I'll break your dog legs!"

Jia Qianqian said in a low voice: "Luo Cheng, take your fight outside, don't make a fuss in my house!"

"I'm really annoyed right now; please leave."

Before leaving, Luo Cheng gave Lin Yang a vicious glare.

Seeing Luo Cheng leave, Master Zhu also chased after him, shouting.

"Hey, you still owe me five hundred bucks!"

"Hurry up, give me the five hundred bucks!"

After they left, Jia Qianqian knelt down and said to Lin Yang.

"Mr. Lin, please lend your hand to save my father."

Lin Yang didn't waste words, walked up to Jia Xiangyang, took out silver needles, and placed them on him.

After the needling was finished, he took out the Longevity Elixir, but did not administer it directly.

Instead, he poured it into his hand, turned all the Longevity Elixir into mist, and let it enter Jia Xiangyang's body.

Now Jia Xiangyang's condition is somewhat like that of the Huo family elder back then.

His body simply cannot tolerate the Longevity Elixir; we have to proceed slowly.

With Lin Yang's movements, Jia Xiangyang's complexion recovered at a visible speed.

Seeing this, Jia Qianqian and the others all showed joy on their faces.

After a bit of tidying up, Lin Yang led Jia Qianqian and the others out of the house.

As soon as they reached the living room, Jia Qianqian was about to kneel, but Lin Yang stopped her.

"Miss Jia, there's no need to kneel and thank me; you did pay after all."

"Moreover, your house has serious problems; if people don't leave, they'll easily get sick."

Upon hearing that, Jia Qianqian decisively said.

"I'll take my father away right now!"
