Chapter 50 - Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle

The wine had been passed around three times, the dishes came in five flavors.

Under Li Tianwei’s leadership, Ye Haochuan was introduced to the distinguished guests filling the room.

Tan Yuying even praised Ye Haochuan’s medical skills as unparalleled in the world and rare among his contemporaries.

Ye Haochuan, of course, repeatedly expressed modesty, winning unanimous favor from everyone present.

The kind-looking elderly man shimmered with keen approval in his eyes.

For a while, the whole luncheon was cheerful and harmonious between the hosts and guests.

However, just as the luncheon was about to conclude, suddenly a middle-aged man at the table clutched his chest and slumped to the ground, his complexion pale, and sweat beads on his forehead dripping down his cheeks.

“President Yang, what’s wrong with you?” Li Tianwei exclaimed in shock.

“I don’t know, maybe President Yang’s heart condition has recurred,” said one of the guests.

“Quick, get President Yang’s heart medicine…” Li Tianwei urged urgently.

Two bodyguards rushed forward, but President Yang, sweating profusely, said, “This is bad, I rushed out the door and left it at the office, I forgot to bring it.”

“What should we do?” Li Tianwei fretted anxiously.

At that moment, Li Wenfeng turned to Ye Haochuan and said, “Right, Brother Ye, your medical skills are exceptional, please take a look at President Yang quickly.”

Only then did Li Tianwei come to the realization and hastily sought help from Ye Haochuan.

“Alright,” Ye Haochuan nodded and promptly stepped forward to examine President Yang.

Just then, a young man with a proudly arrogant look rose from another dining table, hurried over to President Yang, squatted down, took his pulse, and frowned, “Indeed, it’s a heart attack, but there’s still time to save him…

Everyone, please help move President Yang to that sofa over there so he can lie flat, and then strip off his upper clothing so I can administer acupuncture.”

Everyone hurriedly complied, lifting President Yang to a nearby sofa and removing his shirt.

Seeing this, Ye Haochuan did not want to overshadow others and followed the crowd to the sofa.

Strangely, the young man seemed to harbor considerable animosity towards Ye Haochuan.

Upon seeing him approach, the young man huffed softly and then took out an acupuncture needle box from his person.

He meticulously inserted several silver needles into various cardiac points on President Yang.

Ye Haochuan watched, baffled.

Was this guy taking the wrong medication?

Why such animosity towards him!

Could it be jealousy because he had just stolen the spotlight at the banquet?

Thinking this, Ye Haochuan shook his head inwardly.

For a medical practitioner, competition is not to be feared—it’s losing one’s mind to jealousy that’s dangerous.

Clearly, this young man’s jealousy was too strong, which wasn’t a good sign!

At that moment, the young man began the acupuncture.

His movements were swift, and in a moment, he had inserted several silver needles.

Ye Haochuan nodded repeatedly, appreciating the young man’s proficient technique and the precision of the acupuncture points.

Not bad.

However, Ye Haochuan’s mind stirred with a familiar sensation regarding this method of acupuncture.

Upon further contemplation, he was slightly shocked, “The Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle.”

In the legacy of the Holy Hand that he inherited, the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle shared a profound similarity with the Holy Hand’s Eighteen Needles.

However, this needle’s unique aspect lay in its ability to prolong a patient’s life.

That is to say, even if a patient was gasping for breath and near death, as long as the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle was administered, the patient could sustain a longer life.

As for how much longer the patient could live, it depended on the medical practitioner’s Cultivation.

Unfortunately, the descended memory of the Holy Hand did not contain this set of needle techniques, so Ye Haochuan was unable to perform it.

Moreover, within the memory of the Holy Hand, there had always been a longing for this technique, yet it had never been found.

He had not expected to encounter it here.

How wonderful it would be if he could acquire this miraculous set of life-battling needle techniques!

As Ye Haochuan was contemplating how to acquire the technique of the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle, suddenly, from beside him came a sound of surprise, “Junior Brother Ye, do you also know about the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle?”

Turning his head, Ye Haochuan saw that it was the kind elderly man from before.

His superior, Kou Jing, was currently accompanying him.

“I know a little, but I don’t understand the deeper mysteries,” Ye Haochuan nodded.

The elderly man smiled slightly, “It’s remarkable that you know about the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle at your age, not bad, not bad.”

A thought struck Ye Haochuan, could this elderly man know the mysteries of the Seven-Star Life-Renewing Needle?

With that thought, he immediately responded with a humble smile, “Not at all, not at all.”

Just then, Kou Jing laughed, “Grandpa, you see I was right, my subordinate is quite extraordinary.”

Ye Haochuan took a deep breath, so this elderly man was Kou Jing Doctor Kou’s grandfather!

At the same time, he was also surprised.

Doctor Kou was known as the unapproachable ice beauty in the school hospital, only to be admired from afar, yet she was so gentle and warm in front of her grandfather, like ice and snow melting.

Old Master Kou laughed, “Extraordinary?

He saved Li Wenfeng, his medical skills are many times better than yours.

In my opinion, he shouldn’t be your subordinate, he would be more than sufficient as your boss.”

“My boss?

Him?

He’s not experienced enough!” Kou Jing pursed her lips and said.

Old Master Kou kept a stern face and said, “Shameless, not knowing modesty.”

Kou Jing let out a coquettish laugh, obviously not taking her grandfather’s words to heart.

Old Master Kou turned to Ye Haochuan and said, “Junior Brother Ye, my granddaughter is just like this; don’t take it personally.”

Ye Haochuan shook his head, indicating he would not.

Kou Jing glowered at Ye Haochuan, thinking whether he dared to challenge her.

If he did, she, as his superior, would make things difficult for him.

However, remembering his past lecherous acts, she felt a twinge of empathy.

Just then, a scream erupted from President Yang’s mouth.

Ye Haochuan looked toward the source of the sound and saw President Yang, his face contorted in pain.

Instead of improving, he convulsed and passed out.

The young man now also changed color, completely losing his previously calm composure.

“What’s going on?” everyone was shocked.

“Impossible, impossible…” the young man began stammering, sweating profusely.

Old Master Kou quickly stepped forward and checked President Yang’s pulse, shaking his head, “Strange, very strange indeed…”

The young man panicked, “Master, did I do something wrong with the acupuncture?”

Ye Haochuan was a bit taken aback; this young man was Old Master Kou’s apprentice?

Old Master Kou shook his head and said, “Your technique was correct, Tang Zhen, but strangely, it had no effect at all.”

“It’s not strange at all, Old Master Kou, because his heart is different from others.

Other people’s atriums are on the left, but President Yang’s atrium is on the right side,” Ye Haochuan said with a smile.

Old Master Kou was suddenly startled; then he brightened up and laughed, “Junior Brother Ye is truly extraordinary, seeing right through it!”

The people around him, upon hearing this, perked up.

Many were skeptical of Ye Haochuan’s medical skills but hesitated to question him directly during President Li’s luncheon.

Now, hearing Ye Haochuan’s casual remark earning Old Master Kou’s praise, their doubts were largely dispelled.

After all, who was Old Master Kou?

He was Senior Godly Doctor Kou, renowned across the entire Haishan medical community!

“Master, is this guy just spouting nonsense?

How could he know that President Yang’s atrium is on the right side?” Tang Zhen said resentfully.
