Ling Yun did not have time to bother about the old mans shocked expression as he immediately poured in a stream of spiritual energy after pricking a gold needle into Miracle Doctor Xues acupuncture point.

Then, with the slight twitch of his right thumb, another gold needle leaped from his palm to between his fingers. With a slight pinch, it pierced into another acupuncture point on Miracle Doctor Xues chest!

The third, the fourth, the fifth

Ling Yun seemed calm and collected, but his gaze was extremely focused. Even though he was applying the needles with one hand, the entire process was in constant fluid motion. It did not look like a treatment, but instead a beautiful piece of art!

By the time the sixth gold needle was pricked into his body, a flash of pain could be seen in Miracle Doctor Xues eyes, which worsened as time went by, but he clenched his fist and held it together!

The best doctor in China would know better than anyone that it was the most crucial period for Ling Yun then, he definitely did not want to cause any trouble for Ling Yun.

As the eighth gold needle broke his skin, Miracle Doctor Xue was already in unbearable pain and his body was trembling uncontrollably!

As Ling Yun poured in the eighth stream of spiritual energy, he felt that the jade boxs aura had been completely depleted, thus, he casually left the jade box on the ground.

Following the depletion of the jade boxs spiritual energy, the spiritual energy within Ling Yuns body had completely mobilized just in time.

With a seven-inch needle in his right hand, a hint of somberness appeared on his face as he quietly poured his spiritual energy into the needle.

Depending on the differences between the illness and location, the sequence and method of inserting the needles for the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot would naturally differ.

But no matter what variation of the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot it was, the most important needle was always the last one!

Even the slightest deviation, be it pricking too deep or too shallow by half even a millimeter, would reduce the effect drastically.

Using his left hand that had been freed up earlier, Ling Yun gently held onto Miracle Doctor Xues shoulder that was trembling due to the immense pain. His right hand was still as steady as a rock as he aligned the needle with another major acupuncture point before slowly inserting it in.

*Pfff!*

Before Ling Yun could let go of the needle after directing the ninth stream of spiritual energy into his body, Miracle Doctor Xue had already spat a mouthful of purplish-brown blood onto Ling Yuns face!

ErElder, you really are impolite. I was ready to duck but I guess I still wasnt fast enough!

Obviously, Ling Yun had known that the old man would spit blood after all nine needles were inserted.

However, a huge amount of spiritual energy had been drained from Ling Yuns body, thus, he could only casually joke about it as he bitterly wiped the blood off his face.

He knew that as long as the old man spat out a mouthful of purplish-brown blood, he would be fine for now.

Grandpa! Xue Meining suddenly busted through the door with tears streaming down her face, resembling a flower in the pouring rain. She quickly ran in and shoved Ling Yun aside with strength that seemingly came out of nowhere.

Grandpa, what happened to you? You were still alright before this why are you spitting out blood now?! Dont scare me, grandpa

Xue Meining turned around and shot Ling Yun a death glare with her bloodshot eyes and yelled, Do you even know how to do acupuncture? Since when did traditional Chinese acupuncture cause people to vomit blood?

If anything happens to my grandfather, Ill never forgive you!

Little Demon Girl exploded at Ling Yun like an angered little lion the moment she saw her grandfather violently vomiting blood without even clarifying anything beforehand.

It was never in Xue Meinings personality to obediently stay outside the door after leaving the room.

No one would dare to casually disturb the place where Miracle Doctor Xue stayed unless there was a prior reservation or the old man himself allowed someone in.

Which seventeen-year-old teenage girl would not be curious? In addition, she was never 100% confident in Ling Yun, thus, she could not help but peek through the door gap.

Her grandfather was seated directly facing the door, thus, she had a clear view of the entire acupuncture process that Ling Yun was carrying out.

In the beginning, she had been absolutely amazed by Ling Yuns fluid movements and outrageous acupuncture points, even to the point where she was secretly praising him. But the moment she saw that Miracle Doctor Xue was in pain, her heart was instantly caught in her throat.

As she continued looking, she saw that her grandfather was in so much more pain that his entire body began to tremble, which almost made her bust into the room.

Fortunately, Little Demon Girl herself was also an expert in traditional Chinese medicine and was aware that it was the key point of the acupuncture process for Ling Yun, so she forced herself to stay put.

However, she could empathize with her grandfathers suffering and tears had started flooding her eyes as her hatred for Ling Yun grew.

It was at the moment her grandfather vomited blood that she could no longer control herself and busted through the door.

As Ling Yun was regulating his breathing, he had not expected Little Demon Girl to be this fierce, to shove him aside, almost giving him a stitch.

He could only shake his head while he sighed. Sigh, what on earth did I get myself into? I knew this would happen the moment I try to do some good.

Dont disturb your grandfather, let him rest for a while

Ling Yun was too lazy to bother about Little Demon Girl after he said his piece and proceeded to close his eyes to regulate his breathing.

You!

Dont be rude, Little Ning. Grandpa is fine, I just need to rest a little. Go close the door.

Following the mouthful of blood, Miracle Doctor Xue could immediately feel the immense pain disappear without a trace and his entire body felt relaxed.

Of course, Miracle Doctor Xue knew that Ling Yun had succeeded!

He had been looking at Ling Yun with a mixture of gratitude, praise, and shock when his precious granddaughter barged in and caused a mess, which caused his expression to shift into one of abject apology.

This was his savior after all, how could this debutante shove him around and scold him

Grandpa, are you really alright? Xue Meining only began to inspect Miracle Doctor Xues face closely after he insisted that he was alright and realized that there was indeed a healthy glow to his face. She was instantly confused and slightly suspicious.

But at least she was less worried about her grandfather. If he said that he was alright, he definitely was. At least his condition didnt worsen after the treatment.

Little Demon Girl bit her lip as she looked at Ling Yun, who was drenched in blood, with the intent of saying something, before ultimately obeying her grandfather and turning around to close the door.

Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot! Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot! Ive finally been enlightened, so this is the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot! Amazing, truly amazing! Theres hope for traditional Chinese medicine to prosper!

Miracle Doctor Xue muttered to himself as his eyes were filled with amazement and excitement but also a slight hint of disappointment.

The younger generation is constantly replacing the older generation. The best Miracle Doctor in China? It was likely that the owner of that title would change from that day onwards!

However, that trace of disappointment was quickly replaced by genuine excitement and happiness.

God has had mercy on me, allowing old me to witness the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot in my lifetime and to have my life saved by this legendary technique, what other complaints could I possibly have?

Miracle Doctor Xue lowered his head to see the nine treasured gold needles that he had painstakingly collected for several decades sticking out of his chest as streams of cooling sensations flowed from his chest to the rest of his body. He could no longer suppress the satisfied smile on his ruddy face.

The way he looked at Ling Yun was sincerer than the way a mother looked at her son-in-law.

Kid, why are you still on the ground? Do you need me to help you up personally?

Miracle Doctor Xue was about to get up as he said.

Ling Yun had already finished regulating his breath. He opened his eyes and chuckled, Ha, Elders complexion is finally back to normal

Even though Miracle Doctor Xues complexion had also been red even before the treatment, that red stemmed from his constant supplementation and excess of heart fire. It was not the normal ruddy complexion of a healthy person.

How long more do these nine gold needles of yours have to stay on my body?

About half an hour will be sufficient What? My gold needles?

The purpose of Ling Yun transferring the nine streams of spiritual energy into Miracle Doctor Xues body through the gold needle was to suppress the Gu Insect, but the spiritual energy had not been stabilized yet, therefore, the needles could not be removed yet.

Ling Yun was puzzled, since when had they become his gold needles?

Miracle Doctor Xue nodded his head and chuckled, Only you know how to use these gold needles, who elses would they be?

Ling Yun scratched his head.

What youre saying isyoure giving these nine gold needles to me?

Miracle Doctor Xue nodded his head in all seriousness.

Alright, Ill take them then. Hehe

The funny thing was, his goal had been to obtain silver needles, but instead, the owner himself gifted Ling Yun the gold needles, what reason did he have to reject?

Hmph, Ive never seen anyone like you, not even a thank you!

Xue Meining had already entered the room for quite some time. She stood there quietly observing the conversation between her grandfather, who was lying in a chair, and Ling Yun, who was casually sitting on the ground like a degenerate. It was only then that she interrupted.

Miracle Doctor Xue had not coughed since he vomited blood. If she still could not tell that Ling Yun had temporarily fixed her grandfathers illness, she would be considered a disgrace as Miracle Doctor Xues granddaughter.

Miracle Doctor Xue shook his head, Little Ning, Ling Yun is your grandfathers life savior, I should be the one saying thank you. From now onwards, youre not allowed to be rude to him, understand?

Ling Yun sat there with his arm on the ground as support and his body leaning backward. He grinned at Xue Meining with a smug look on his face.

Hmph! No one was being rude to him, he was the one being rude all along! Little Demon Girl suddenly remembered their bet and could not hold in her anger as she looked at Ling Yuns shameless smirk.

Of course, what Little Demon Girl was feeling deep within was apparent to everyone.

Her elated and grateful expression had revealed everything.

Little Ning, bring Ling Yun into the house to take a shower and get him suitable clothes. His clothes are stained with blood and completely unwearable.

This time, Xue Meining did not object. She stared at Ling Yun with her big bright eyes and said sweetly, Get up already, why are you still on the ground?

Ling Yun lifted his hand.

Initially, Xue Meining had the intention to help Ling Yun up, but she stopped in her tracks after taking one look at her grandfather. Instead, she stomped her feet and tipped her chin up, Im not going to help you up. Ultimately, youre the one suffering if you dont shower.

Sigh, what a rough life

Ling Yun got up in one swift motion and said to Miracle Doctor Xue, Im going to take a shower, Ill remove the needles in half an hour.

Miracle Doctor Xue let out a satisfied chuckled and said, Alright, move along. Didnt you notice that Little Ning has already entered the house to prepare your bath?

As he looked at Ling Yun swaggering into the house, Miracle Doctor Xue slowly slipped into deep thoughts.

He could not possibly dismiss Ling Yun with a mere nine gold needles after he had saved his life, right?

Especially since Ling Yun had mentioned just now that in two months time, he would be able to force out the Gu Insect that had been plaguing his body for the past 40 years.
