Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
She indeed had the capital to be proud.
Born into a major sect, with a renowned physician grandfather, and having extraordinary talents herself, she had become a seventh-grade physician at a young age.
The entire Canghai Palace adored her.
People around, upon hearing Su Ziyin’s words, were amazed.
“This young girl looks like she’s in her teens, yet she’s already a seventh-grade physician?”
“Wasn’t there a genius girl in Canghai Palace who was promoted to a seventh-grade physician last year? I think this must be her.”
“No wonder she’s so arrogant; she’s truly a rare genius!”
“Considering the talent she has demonstrated so far, her future achievements might even surpass those of Grand Physician Haisheng. Impressive! Truly impressive!”
“Miss Su is the most favored among the younger generation in Canghai Palace. The sacred artifact she’s interested in must be extraordinary. Such treasures should indeed be controlled by talents like her, it’s not a waste.”
There were praises, flattery, and opposition.
A young girl retorted, “You can’t say it like that! In an auction, whoever bids the highest gets the item. Since this gentleman has already completed the transaction with the Shadow Tower, the golden needle is his private property, and others can’t just snatch it away.”
The people’s comments didn’t affect Gu Qingluan’s mood. She raised an eyebrow, scrutinizing Su Ziyin, and said, “A seventh-grade physician… quite impressive?”
“You…” Su Ziyin was furious at Gu Qingluan’s contemptuous gaze, “What’s your rank?”
“I don’t know.”
Su Ziyin sneered. “Turns out, you’re someone without rank. How can you dare to look down on me?”
Gu Qingluan didn’t want to argue and raised an eyebrow, asking, “Miss Su, do we continue with our previous bet? You’ve already wasted fifteen minutes.”
Su Ziyin crossed her arms and said, “Fine, go ahead, cure him! 1 want to see how you detoxify him!”
“Miss Su, please keep your eyes wide open.” Gu Qingluan smirked, then turned towards the elderly man on the bed and infused her arcane power into the golden needle.
The golden needle soared and hung above the old man.
With a thought, Gu Qingluan transformed one needle into dozens of golden lights, which pierced into the old man’s body.
Everyone widened their eyes, watching this miraculous scene unfold.
Other participants in the detoxification process and the companions of the patients also turned their attention.
Su Haisheng and Su Ziyin were equally stunned.
What kind of technique was this?
They could only observe that the old man’s exposed skin appeared to shimmer with a subtle golden glow.
In about half an incense stick’s time.
Gu Qingluan made a hand gesture.
One golden needle flew from the top of the old man’s head and landed in a nearby basin.
The basin produced a sizzling sound and quickly became murky.
Then the golden needle broke the surface of the water and flew towards Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan grasped the golden needle, and with a thought, she pulled the needle back into her body.
Su Ziyin came back to her senses but scornfully said, “Playing tricks! Don’t tell me you’ve already detoxified him!”
As her words fell, someone excitedly shouted, “He’s awake! Master Zhao is awake!”
Su Ziyin:…
She was forced to swallow her words.
She quickly turned her gaze towards the old man on the bed.
The elderly man, who had been in a deep coma, now opened his eyes and gazed bewilderedly at the people surrounding him.
“He’s really awake!”
Su Ziyin’s face was burning from the embarrassment of her previous outburst.
She wished she could just disappear into the ground.
In reality, no one paid much attention to her at this moment.
Earlier, including the renowned physician Su Haisheng, a group of medical and alchemical experts were all at a loss when it came to dealing with this poison. Everyone believed that detoxification would be a lengthy process.
But this young man named Jun casually intervened and miraculously woke the old man up!
“Master Zhao, how do you feel now?”
Zhao Hanqiu propped himself up on the edge of the bed, puzzled. “What happened to me? Why are you all gathered here?”
“Master Zhao, don’t you remember? Someone tried to steal the key and poisoned everyone, and you fell into a coma.”
Gradually, Zhao Hanqiu recalled the events before his unconsciousness. “All, there was nothing wrong with me at all. It felt like I had a strange dream. I wonder which esteemed expert saved me?”
He then noticed Su Haisheng and his eyes lit up. “Doctor Haisheng, it must have been you who came to my rescue, right? Thank you very much….”
