Lu Fan said nothing more, heading towards the car. However, he would not let the humiliation from the Yang family go unpunished.
At the same time, he thought of the old geezer on the mountain, grinding his teeth in anger. He had come happily for the wedding, only to be looked down upon.
Yang Ding Tian kept his head down, watching Lu Fan get into the car, his heart filled with dread. Bai Chen Tian was the head of the Qingzhou Dragon family, the de facto leader of Qingzhou. No one could act presumptuously before the Bai family. Lu Fan could even make the Bai family patriarch personally show up; their Yang family was likely facing imminent disaster.
After Bai Chen Tian left, Yang Jia Qi finally spoke, "Grandpa, what's going on?"
Slap…
Yang Ding Tian slapped her fiercely, "Isn't this all your doing? The Yang family is probably facing disaster! He's actually connected to Master Bai!"
"Grandpa, you hit me for an outsider!" Yang Jia Qi said with a wronged expression, "It's just the Bai family. Their businesses aren't that strong. Why are you so scared?"
"What do you know? The Bai family is an invisible power in Qingzhou, their true foundation is immeasurable. Even the top enterprise in Qingzhou dares not offend Master Bai," Yang Ding Tian said coldly. "For someone to have Master Bai personally pick them up, how can the Yang family afford to offend him!"
Thinking of this, Yang Ding Tian was filled with regret, looking at Yang Jia Qi with disappointment. If she had married Lu Fan, perhaps they could have hitched a ride with the Bai family, and then the Yang family would truly be able to do as they pleased in Qingzhou.
Unfortunately, all of this was ruined, and they had even offended Lu Fan in the process.
Thinking of this, Yang Ding Tian’s heart bled, and he almost had a heart attack and fainted.
Arriving at the Bai family courtyard, Lu Fan stopped and looked at Bai Chen Tian, "How did you know I could cure the old man's illness?"
"Old Zhao said that in this world, only you, sir, can cure him!" Bai Chen Tian pleaded, "It was my foolishness before that made you leave!"
As they were speaking, Divine Doctor Zhao also approached Lu Fan, "Young man, you were right. My Seven Star Needle technique has issues, but you must understand it!"
"The Seven Star Needle, also known as the Big Dipper Seven Star Needle, requires extreme precision. Even a single misplaced needle will render all efforts futile," Lu Fan stated directly. "I reminded you when you were performing the acupuncture!"
"It is my fault!" Old Zhao said with remorse. He was a renowned national physician, yet he had almost killed a living person. His heart was deeply shaken.
"Mr. Lu, saving him is paramount! My grandfather… he might not make it…"
Bai Xue ran out from the room, her face streaked with tears.
Everyone rushed into the room and found the old man ice-cold, his end seemingly near.
"Dad!"
Bai Chen Tian collapsed onto the bed, holding his father's hand, his pain seemingly tearing him apart. "I didn't expect to be too late!"
"Mr. Bai, can you move aside? The old man can still be saved. If you delay any longer, even the Great Immortal Luo would be powerless to turn the tide!" Lu Fan rolled his eyes.
Bai Chen Tian quickly moved aside. Old Zhao also looked puzzled. At this stage, even his body was stiffening. If he could still be saved, it wouldn't be a divine doctor, but the Great Immortal Luo himself.
Lu Fan looked at the elder, then took out his silver needles. However, as soon as he inserted a needle, it fell out. The old man's body was too stiff; the resilience of the silver needle couldn't penetrate.
Everyone's hearts sank. They had thought there was still a glimmer of hope, but now it seemed all was lost.
"Is there anyone I, the young master, want to save that I cannot!"
As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, he formed a hand seal, controlling the silver needles that hovered around the old man. Yet, the needles seemed to have pierced the old man's acupoints, causing his body to subtly move.
"Qi manipulation for acupuncture, how is this possible!"
Old Zhao was so shocked that he fell backward, unable to stand steady. "Qi manipulation for acupuncture, lost for ages!"
Lu Fan paid no mind, continuing to perform his needle technique. The old man's life hung by a thread; if not for his medical skills, he might have died here today.
Bai Chen Tian watched, dumbfounded. He had seen peerless divine doctors, but never one this formidable. The silver needles hovering in the air were simply like something from a myth.
Bai Xue clasped her hands in front of her chest, praying continuously for her grandfather's safety. At the same time, she was deeply shaken. She knew Lu Fan's medical skills were formidable, but she hadn't expected them to reach such a level.
After a period of acupuncture, the silver needles formed the shape of the Big Dipper, perfectly corresponding to the old man's acupoints.
A while later, Lu Fan withdrew the needles, exhausted, and sat to the side. Qi manipulation for acupuncture was no easy task.
"Mr. Lu, how is the old man?" Bai Chen Tian quickly asked. "Is it really beyond saving?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I've made my move, is there anyone I can't save?" Lu Fan glared. "Hurry up and prepare some food, I'm hungry. The old man will wake up within an hour!" Su Dan Novel Network
Bai Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly sent people to prepare food, his face filled with joy.
Old Zhao went to the old man's side and felt his breathing, his heart filled with astonishment. "When he was examining him, the old man was on the verge of death, his body already stiffening. Now, his breathing is even, as if he were asleep."
"Mr. Lu, thank you so much this time!" Bai Xue said gratefully. "If it weren't for you, my grandfather would probably have passed away."
"Seeing how moved you are, you're not thinking of offering yourself in marriage, are you?" Lu Fan squinted. "If that's the case, I might consider it."
Bai Xue's face flushed. Although she was beautiful, she had never interacted with men before. Being teased by Lu Fan like this stirred something within her.
"I was blind and offended a senior. I hope the senior will forgive me!" Old Zhao quickly cupped his fists, his attitude obsequious.
"I dare not be called a senior!" Lu Fan smiled. "We became acquainted through conflict, but that Seven Star Needle technique indeed has problems."
"Senior's medical skills are brilliant, simply a living Hua Tuo," Old Zhao knelt down. "Does senior accept disciples?"
"Accept disciples?" Lu Fan gave an awkward smile. "You are a national physician and quite old. If I were to accept you as a disciple, wouldn't I be taking advantage of you?"
"In the medical world, it's not age that matters, but skill. Mr. Lu's medical skills are outstanding. It would be my honor to be accepted as your disciple. As the saying goes, the wise are teachers!" Old Zhao said sincerely.
"Mr. Lu, Old Zhao is so sincere, you should agree to him," Bai Xue said earnestly.
"Alright, since he's so sincere, I can only agree," Lu Fan said helplessly. "But then again, I'll only teach you the Seven Star Needle technique, nothing else!"
"Thank you, Master!" Old Zhao bowed deeply, showing respect to Ye Tian, which was a gesture of respecting one's teacher.
Although Lu Fan was young, he could not lose his composure in matters of etiquette.
