Miracle Doctor Xue nodded gladly and Ling Yun proceeded to crouch down and remove the needles.

As compared to inserting the needles, removing them would be a lot easier, but the sequence was still important.

Depending on what illness it was, the sequence of removing the needles mattered a lot. It definitely could not be randomly removed by anyone.

That would spell disaster.

Ling Yun concentrated slightly and quickly removed all nine gold needles at lightning speed.

“Elder, I’ve got the Gu Insect in your body under control, you can be completely assured that it wouldn’t harm you in the next two months.”

“Two months later, I’ll help you force the Gu Insect out of your body, completely solving your illness.”

When Ling Yun treated a patient, he either would go all the way or not treat the patient at all. Giving up halfway was not his style.

Therefore, he said it even before Miracle Doctor Xue and his granddaughter had the chance to ask.

It was a good move that impressed both Miracle Doctor Xue and Xue Meining, making them nod in agreement.

Ling Yun was confident that he would reach the peak of his physique tempering in two months and the spiritual energy within his body would be 200 times more than the amount he had right now. He would also have full control of the spiritual energy within his body and would be able to manipulate it manually, thus, forcing the Gu Insect out of Miracle Doctor Xue’s body would be a piece of cake.

Miracle Doctor Xue got up and moved about before slapping his forehead as if he suddenly remembered something. He asked, “Ling Yun, have you had your lunch?”

Ling Yun had gotten there at about 12 pm. Miracle Doctor Xue asked him because according to the time Xue Meining ended her classes, he predicted that Ling Yun had not had the time to have lunch.

Ling Yun was already famished by then, so he laughed bitterly and shook his head. “Elder, I got dragged here by your precious granddaughter the moment I walked out of school at noon, how could I possibly get a chance to have lunch?”

Miracle Doctor Xue glared at his granddaughter and spoke to her sternly, “Quit fooling around, Little Ning. Why didn’t you let him eat before bringing him here? It’s almost 2 pm already, what if Ling Yun starved himself?”

Xue Meining felt aggrieved as she muttered softly, “I thought he would leave after getting the needles, who would’ve known that you two would start diagnosing each other…? But he’s been trying to lose weight, I suppose missing a meal would be fine, hehe…”

Ling Yun was speechless. This Little Demon Girl is taking things for granted, who said I could skip a meal just because I am trying to lose weight?

Miracle Doctor Xue waved to his granddaughter and said, “Quit standing around, Little Ning. Go pack up Ling Yun’s things quickly and head out with him for lunch.”

He pointed at the jade box which held the gold needles and the rosewood casing as he uttered those words.

Ling Yun was in a daze. He looked at the nine gold needles that were resting on his palms and said, “Grandpa, since I’m already taking both the gold and silver needles, I really shouldn’t take the jade box and the wooden casing…”

He could tell that the two items that were used to store the gold needles were extremely valuable.

Miracle Doctor Xue was very impressed with Ling Yun’s performance. He slowly shook his head and replied, “Ling Yun, these gold needles have been kept in the jade box and wooden casing for several decades, what’s the point of separating them? Besides, I’ve already gifted you the gold needles, what’s the point of keeping these boxes with me?”

Since Old Man Xue was so generous, Ling Yun was not left with much to say. Ultimately, he did not have the habit of rejecting people when they insisted on gifting treasures to him.

Xue Meining also did not have much to say. Her hands moved deftly as she placed the jade box in the rosewood casing before asking Ling Yun, “Do you want to place the needles in?”

Ling Yun figured that it would be inconvenient for him to carry the gold needles in his pocket, thus, he nodded and walked towards her.

Once they finished packing, Miracle Doctor Xue nodded and told his granddaughter, “Little Ning, since Ling Yun isn’t going to shower, take him to lunch! Right, bring him to Qingshui Restaurant by Qingshui Lake. They specialize in fish, you should bring him there for lunch.”

“Take him shopping for clothes after you’re done with lunch. No need to worry about the budget, you can claim the money from grandpa when you’re back!”

Ling Yun was so touched and was nearly brought to tears as he heard that. Elder is truly such a caring person, how timely!

This was the benefit of treating people and saving lives, patients genuinely appreciated your help.

Xue Meining pouted her rosebud lips and kept glaring at the smug-looking Ling Yun. What kind of person is he? Revealing his true colors the moment he gets free food and clothes.

“Grandpa, summer is just around the corner. The weather is getting hotter, I want to buy some clothes for summer too…”

The Little Demon Girl tried to take advantage of the situation.

Miracle Doctor Xue was in an exceptionally good mood today, so he nodded straightaway and said, “Sure, sure, go buy all you want. Let Ling Yun accompany you…”

It seemed as if both Miracle Doctor Xue and his granddaughter had forgotten about Ling Yun’s afternoon lessons. Of course, Ling Yun himself had forgotten about it too.

Miracle Doctor Xue showed them to the door. A mysterious smile crept onto his face as he looked at the both of them leaving side by side as if he remembered something.

“Quickly lose some weight…” Miracle Doctor Xue muttered to himself as he turned around and entered the house.

Back in the house, Miracle Doctor Xue picked up the phone and happily dialed a string of numbers in. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

…

In the southern part of China, at the intersection between Yunnan and Guizhou and among tens of thousands of mountains, stood the Miaoling Mountains.

Miao Village.

This was a place that was truly and completely isolated from the rest of the world. Everything here seemed out of place compared to the bustling concrete jungles outside the mountains. If one had to use a word to describe this place, it would be ‘primitive’.

However, the environment was beautiful with the never-ending scenery, along with the blooming flowers and songbirds chirping. A crystal-clear river flowed slowly outside the Miao village, the water ripples glistened under the sun. It seemed like a scene straight out of a storybook.

At the riverside, a few beautiful Miao teenage girls, who were dressed up in colorful clothes with skin pale as snow, were playing around barefooted in the river. The silver ornaments on their clothes clanged together, producing a melodious symphony.

They were showcasing the essence of the minority racial groups’ customs.

They played around for a moment but finally took a break by the riverbank, perhaps it was because they were tired or the youngest Miao girl begged for mercy. They each returned to the riverbank and casually sat on the cooling rocks to rest.

However, all of the teenage girls focused their gaze on the Miao girl who had begged for mercy and asked her all sorts of questions in their local slang.

“Miao Xiaomiao, you just came back from the outside world. Why don’t you tell us what it looks like on the outside?”

A pale-skinned teenage girl in her 20s looked at Miao Xiaomiao with an expression that spelled anticipation and curiosity.

“Yeah, Xiaomiao, tell us… Have you learned how to speak the Chinese language? What are the boys like out there?” Another Miao girl urged her to answer.

The Miao villages in this area were different from the other Miao villages because they were Sheng Miao. And not just any Sheng Miao, they were Gu Miao.

Sheng Miao were those who had not assimilated the Chinese culture. These Miao people lived exclusively within the Miao villages and never had contact with the outside world. They had their own language and they were all fierce, loyal and hot-blooded. The women were all passionate, brave and faithful.

However, teenage girls were always curious. Even though they had grown up in the Miao villages all their lives, they still fantasized about the outside world and yearned to witness it someday.

Miao Xiaomiao was at most 17 years old. Perhaps it was due to her status, she was covered in all sorts of silver jewelry from head to toe, her extravagant outfit was also extra colorful. These all made the exceptional beauty even more eye-catching.

She was still standing barefooted in the crystal water. Standing at a height of 1.7 meters, she had a slim physique that still curved at the right places. Even her layered dress could not hide the hot body beneath it. Her calves that were peeking out beneath her pleated skirt were fair and her skin was as smooth as silk; her dainty feet were even paler. The sunlight reflected from her translucent skin, which made her slim toes resemble jade pieces.

Miao Xiaomiao was pale as snow and her hair was luscious and silky. Even with her eyebrows that resembled crescent moons, her cute little nose, rosebud lips and her V-shaped chin, her most attractive feature was still her eyes.

Her eyes were big and captivating, with a glimmer of wisdom and stubbornness, but when she smiled, the stubbornness was replaced by calmness resembling a spring breeze, capable of touching anyone’s soul.

All the other Miao girls were considered rare beauties, but comparing them to Miao Xiaomiao would be like comparing a chicken to a phoenix.

Miao Xiaomiao pouted her rosebud lips as if she was still mad at them for ganging up against her. She lifted her pointed chin and looked afar at the mountains that were completely covered in rapeseed.

She turned a deaf ear to their burning questions.

However, she quickly burst into laughter and her huge eyes morphed into crescent shapes as she said sweetly, “You want to know what the outside world is like? Why don’t you go have a look yourself?”

The 20-year-old fair skinned girl splashed water on her angrily and ranted, “You think we don’t want to? Think about it, what’s our status in the Miao village compared to yours? As if it would be easy for us to get out of here.”

Miao Xiaomiao chuckled as she evaded the water droplets with light footsteps. “Alright alright, I’ll tell you guys what it’s like…”

She glided towards the center of the Miao girls as she spoke and with the slight twist of her tiny waist, she plopped down on a smooth rock. With a voice as sweet as a Nightingale’s, she said, “The place I went to is called Hudong, there were tall buildings over there, like really really tall buildings, even taller than that mountain!”

She lifted her dainty fingers and pointed towards a faraway mountain that was 200 meters tall.

All the girls were in a daze as they admired her experiences.

“There were also cars that went really really fast on the roads out there…”

In the Miao village, there was a house that was located very far away from the rest of the houses and it was extremely secluded.

A very beautiful woman was sitting in the house.

If anyone judged her by her appearance, no one would believe that she was well over 60 years old, because she looked like she was barely 40.

One could judge from her current looks that she had probably been as beautiful as Miao Xiaomiao when she was younger.

However, this beautiful woman had a horrible expression on her face and there was blood at the corner of her mouth. She was staring at the puddle of blood on the floor with disbelief and complexity in her eyes.

She was Miao Fenghuang, who had previously been mentioned by Miracle Doctor Xue. Of course, she was the one who had vomited the puddle of blood.

The moment Ling Yun began executing the Nine Classical Needles of Lingshu, Miao Fenghuang had immediately noticed it from a thousand miles away!

The mystery of the Gu Sorcery that had been passed on for 1000 years in Miaojiang was truly extraordinary.

Of course, Miao Fenghuang was unwilling to be controlled as Ling Yun tried to take control of the Gu Insect within Miracle Doctor Xue’s body by executing the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot. Thus, she began to use a special meditation to control the Gu Insect to fight back against the barriers formed by the nine streams of spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, Ling Yun had used spiritual energy to carry out the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot. Moreover, it had been carried out directly on Miracle Doctor Xue, whereas Miao Fenghuang was resisting from a thousand miles away.

In comparison, Miao Fenghuang was at a clear disadvantage and quickly lost out.

Once Ling Yun had placed all nine needles into the body, the Gu Insect was immobilized and Miao Fenghuang could no longer sense it. This made her spit out a mouthful of blood.

A dash of pain flashed across Miao Fenghuang’s eyes that had faint wrinkles but were still as beautiful.

“Xue Zhengqi, I hadn’t expected you to find an expert who could control my Gu Insect!”
