"I didn’t expect Mr. Situ’s medical skills to be so impressive."
At this moment, the more Luo Tianfeng looked at Situ Yun, the more he liked what he saw.
"This is as far as I can go."
"I’ve stabilized her condition."
"But as for curing Miss Luo completely, I’m powerless."
"Because I don’t know what this illness afflicting Miss Luo actually is."
Situ Yun said.
"Then what do we do now?"
"We can’t just leave my daughter like this. No, absolutely not."
"You have to do something for my daughter."
"Besides, you’re doctors. If you don’t help, who will?"
Luo Tianfeng said, his face etched with anxiety.
Seeing the anxious look on Luo Tianfeng’s face, Chen Qingdi stepped forward.
"I can cure Miss Luo’s illness."
"Just leave it to me."
Chen Qingdi said with a smile.
Hearing Chen Qingdi say this, Patriarch Luo looked at him with a serious expression.
"This is no laughing matter. Since you’ve said it, you must be able to do it."
Patriarch Luo said.
"Of course. A gentleman’s word is his bond."
"However, if I cure Miss Luo’s illness, you must let me take Situ Yun away immediately and not cause any trouble for us."
Chen Qingdi said.
"Fine."
Luo Tianfeng agreed without hesitation.
"As long as you can cure my daughter’s illness, not only will I not cause you trouble, but I will also give you a grand gift."
Luo Tianfeng said.
"There’s no need for a grand gift."
"I need to examine Miss Luo’s condition more closely. My initial guess is that it’s a Demon Flower ailment recorded in ancient texts."
Chen Qingdi said.
Chen Qingdi was the first person to name the condition, which made Patriarch Luo feel he was seeing a glimmer of hope.
"Demon Flower ailment?"
"How come I’ve never heard of it?"
Situ Yun said, shaking his head gently.
"There are many things you haven’t heard of."
"Step aside and rest for a bit. You can leave the rest to me."
Chen Qingdi said with a smile, looking at Situ Yun.
Situ Yun was very obedient and immediately stepped to the side.
At that moment, everyone’s gaze turned to Chen Qingdi.
After taking Miss Luo’s pulse, Chen Qingdi had a general diagnosis.
"I’ve actually found a few small, unexpected things."
Chen Qingdi said.
"What small things?"
Patriarch Luo asked curiously.
Luo Bin and Luo Ke also watched intently from the side.
"The Demon Flower ailment has many variations with different details."
"And in Miss Luo’s case, the primary issue should be the Demon Flower Strange Heart Insect."
Chen Qingdi said.
Situ Yun and Zhao Daqian had never heard of any of the things Chen Qingdi was talking about.
So when they heard it, they appeared extremely curious.
"The Demon Flower Strange Heart Insect?"
"What kind of insect is that?"
"How have I never heard of it before?"
Situ Yun prided himself on having read numerous medical texts since he was a child.
"I haven’t heard of it either."
Zhao Daqian also shook his head repeatedly.
If even these two had never heard of it, then it was even less likely for Patriarch Luo and the others.
"It’s an extremely ancient Body-Eating Insect. Its growth cycle is about half a year, and only after that does it enter its mature stage."
"It burrows into the body and destroys the surface of the skin, forming the shape of a Demon Flower. Afterward, it slowly spreads, causing the entire body to decay until the victim ultimately dies a slow and painful death."
Chen Qingdi said.
Hearing Chen Qingdi’s explanation, Patriarch Luo’s expression turned very grave.
"Then please, Mr. Chen, hurry and treat my daughter."
"I’m begging you."
Patriarch Luo said.
"I will naturally do my best."
Chen Qingdi nodded.
After speaking, Chen Qingdi removed his needle case, preparing to begin the acupuncture.
"I have to perform acupuncture first."
"I must use the Golden Phoenix Thirteen Needles."
"Only then can I reawaken Miss Luo’s sealed meridians, allowing her to wake up."
"After that, I’ll need to use some other methods to lure the Demon Flower Strange Heart Insect out of her body."
Chen Qingdi said.
"Alright."
"If you need any help, just say the word."
Patriarch Luo said.
Chen Qingdi told them to step back, as he was about to begin. Moreover, using the Golden Phoenix Thirteen Needles required him to infuse them with his own Spiritual Energy, which would be a considerable drain on him.
Placing the needle case in front of him, Chen Qingdi first took out a silver needle. After glancing at it for a moment, he moved with lightning speed.
The silver needle shot straight toward Miss Luo.
It pierced one of her acupoints.
As the silver needle entered her acupoint, she could be seen twitching slightly.
"She moved! She moved!"
"My sister moved!"
Luo Ke exclaimed excitedly.
"This is just the beginning. No need to make a fuss."
Chen Qingdi, however, appeared perfectly calm.
Seeing how shocked Luo Ke and the others were, Chen Qingdi actually found their reaction a bit over the top.
For Chen Qingdi, treating Miss Luo had only just entered the first stage.
He had only inserted one needle. There were still many more to go.
And time was of the essence. After all, her illness had already been delayed for several months.
If treatment wasn’t continued, it might really be too late.
Chen Qingdi then proceeded to apply the second needle.
There were thirteen needles in total.
But by the time all thirteen needles had been applied, a full half-hour had passed.
And by now, Chen Qingdi’s forehead was covered in sweat.
For Chen Qingdi, this was indeed a massive drain on his energy.
For each of the Golden Phoenix Thirteen Needles, he had to pour his Spiritual Power into the needle, using the power within it to penetrate the meridians.
This would forcibly unblock the meridians and slowly drive the Demon Flower Strange Heart Insect out from within them.
However, this process was also extremely painful for the patient.
But whether she could endure it and pull through, Chen Qingdi didn’t know.
After applying all thirteen needles, Chen Qingdi sat down to the side and began to rest.
Meanwhile, large beads of sweat began to appear all over Miss Luo’s body.
A servant was constantly wiping the sweat from Miss Luo’s body.
"My daughter, how is she now?"
Patriarch Luo asked hurriedly.
"Miss Luo is out of immediate danger."
Chen Qingdi said.
Hearing Chen Qingdi say this, Patriarch Luo’s face lit up with excitement.
"Really?"
Patriarch Luo was almost in disbelief.
"Of course. Soon, the Demon Flower patterns on Miss Luo’s face will fade."
"However, expelling the Demon Flower Strange Heart Insect from her meridians and body will be an extremely painful process."
"And it will require other methods to remove it."
"After Miss Luo wakes up, you will need to tell her all of this."
Chen Qingdi said.
Upon hearing that it would be an extremely painful process, Patriarch Luo could be seen hesitating slightly.
"Is it really that painful?"
Luo Tianfeng asked.
’His daughter had already been tormented enough by the illness. Did she have to endure even more pain?’
