Chapter 767: Returning from the Brink of Death

Sponsored

At this moment, Jin Peng leaned to Elder Lan’s ear and whispered, "Master, don’t be too nervous. The person is already dead anyway. Just blame Miss Jiang’s death on him. He’s just a small fry, and once the rumors spread, he won’t be able to defend himself."

"Jin Peng, I didn’t love you in vain. At the critical moment, you’re the one who can help me."

Elder Lan looked relieved. He had abandoned all sense of justice. Sacrificing that young man’s future to protect his own reputation as a divine doctor was more than worth it.

"Patriarch Jiang, you must see clearly! My master could have continued the acupuncture and saved Miss Jiang, but this boy deliberately caused trouble, which led to her death. This has nothing to do with my master. If you want to hold someone accountable, then hold him accountable!"

Jin Peng signaled to his two fellow apprentices, who then loudly proclaimed all the blame on Yang Cheng.

Jiang Heping’s heart felt like it was being squeezed, painfully making it hard to breathe. He looked at his lifeless daughter and then at the confident Yang Cheng, and a decision formed in his heart.

In fact, he really didn’t believe anyone could resurrect the dead.

But at this moment, he was at his wit’s end and could only gamble on a chance.

"Patriarch Jiang, you know the truth of the matter in your heart. I just ask if you want to save your daughter. As long as you agree, I will do my utmost to save her!"

Yang Cheng spoke again.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Heping gritted his teeth and said, "Alright! Mr. Yang, if you can save my daughter, I will give you the Sun Essence Gold without taking a penny!"

"Family Head..."

The butler wanted to persuade but was stopped by Jiang Heping raising his hand.

"Everyone, get out!"

Jiang Heping said solemnly, "While Mr. Yang is treating, no one is allowed to disturb!"

"Patriarch Jiang, you are truly muddled. How can you believe his nonsense? A boy in his twenties can bring the dead back to life? Then my forty years of practicing medicine would be a joke!"

Elder Lan spoke unwillingly, but Jiang Heping looked at him fiercely.

What had just happened inside was not seen by others, but Jiang Heping saw clearly that Yang Cheng did not interfere with Elder Lan’s acupuncture but merely stopped him from operating further.

"Shut up! This is the Jiang Family, and I don’t need you to teach me how to do things!"

"Elder Lan, considering you’re an elder, I’m saving some face for you. If my daughter can’t be saved, I’ll hold you accountable!"

Jiang Heping roared, and then gestured for the bodyguards to drive everyone out.

Ever since his daughter became seriously ill, he had sought famous doctors everywhere but never managed to cure her. Fortunately, there was the Sun Essence Gold, which temporarily stabilized her condition. It was unexpected that under Elder Lan’s hands, she almost lost her life.

Soon, everyone in the room was driven out, leaving only Yang Cheng, Cheng Qiyue, and the lifeless Jiang Yu on the bed.

As soon as the door closed, the buzzing sound of discussions outside began.

"Patriarch Jiang is really grasping at straws, believing that kid can bring Miss Jiang back to life."

"Frankly, if even Elder Lan can’t cure Miss Jiang, then other famous doctors won’t be able to help. This is just Miss Jiang’s fate. Why insist?"

"Just wait and see. When that kid comes out, there will be good drama to watch."

No one dared to attempt treating Jiang Yu, but when they saw Yang Cheng enter, they began to bad-mouth him, believing he couldn’t possibly succeed.

Jin Peng leaned to Elder Lan’s ear and whispered, "Master, rest assured, that boy definitely can’t save her. We should spread the word that he was responsible for Miss Jiang’s death anyway, only we were inside the room earlier, and others don’t know the situation."

Elder Lan nodded slightly, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes.

Inside the room.

Yang Cheng stood beside the bed, looking at the frail, barely human form of Jiang Yu.

Her face was as pale as paper, her lips devoid of color, and her long eyelashes quietly drooped, resembling a delicate porcelain doll.

"Yang Cheng, can she really... be saved?"

Cheng Qiyue asked softly, her eyes filled with a bit of pity. Such a young and pretty girl dying like this, it was truly a pity.

"On the surface, there’s no breath, but actually there’s still a bit of breath left. As long as this breath is maintained, there’s still a chance of her reviving."

As Yang Cheng spoke, he had already taken out a silver needle.

He quickly activated his X-ray Vision, clearly seeing the strange power rampantly running amok inside Jiang Yu, almost devouring all her vitality. This situation seemed familiar.

Yang Cheng did not have time to think, observing that deep in her heart, there was a faint warmth, the last ray of hope for survival.

"Ms. Qi Yue, help me lift her up."

Yang Cheng instructed.

"Alright!"

Cheng Qiyue immediately stepped forward, supporting Jiang Yu from behind, letting her lean against her chest.

Then Yang Cheng took a deep breath, the silver needle in his hand moved like lightning, accurately piercing the acupuncture point on Jiang Yu’s chest.

Simultaneously, True Qi surged continuously into her body along the silver needle.

He wasn’t sure what the power was, couldn’t rashly dispel it, but used True Qi to protect her last heart vessel. Only by saving her life first could he think about how to cure her.

As time ticked by, fine beads of sweat appeared on Yang Cheng’s forehead, his complexion slightly pale, and a large amount of True Qi consumed, even a master of the Foundation Establishment Realm would struggle.

Moreover, the power was so bizarre that the moment his True Qi entered, it began to be devoured frantically.

This feeling was too familiar. A flash of inspiration came to Yang Cheng’s mind, suddenly recalling the scene when he treated Ni Qingyao, where his True Qi was also being devoured by Pig Source Qi.

Could it be... the rampant power inside Miss Jiang is actually a kind of Zodiac Energy?

With this thought in mind, Yang Cheng felt very complicated, not knowing whether to be happy or worried for a while.

He shook off his messy thoughts, focusing intently on injecting True Qi, not daring to stop for a moment.

If he stopped, Jiang Yu would really die.

Regardless of whether the energy inside Jiang Yu is Zodiac Energy or not, he must do his utmost to save her.

Watching the sweat drop by drop from Yang Cheng’s forehead, Cheng Qiyue was heartbroken and asked softly, "Yang Cheng, should I take over for a while? Continuing like this, your Dantian will be damaged."

She had never seen Yang Cheng struggle so much, even when facing those masters at the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect he had never been like this.

"I can hold on a bit longer, just help me keep watch, don’t let anyone break in."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Qiyue nodded and silently went to guard the door. If anyone tries to break in, she would make sure to knock them out.

Outside the door.

Jiang Heping paced anxiously, glancing at the tightly closed door from time to time. But it was quiet inside, and he dared not disturb them, only hoping that boy wasn’t just boasting, that he was truly capable of saving his daughter.

"Patriarch, don’t worry too much!"

The butler reassured, his eyes also filled with helplessness.
