In the room.
Yang Feilong was examining Xu Xinghe's injuries.
"How is it?" Xu Xinghe sat by the bed, looking at Yang Feilong and asking.
"Easy to treat," Yang Feilong nodded and said.
"Easy to treat?" Xu Xinghe blinked. "I've seen countless doctors, both so-called experts and martial healers specializing in cultivators. All of them were helpless."
"For me, it's not difficult!" Yang Feilong said.
"Then how do you treat it?" Xu Xinghe asked, unable to hide his joy. "I've been tormented by this hidden ailment to the point of wishing for death!"
"Just take off your shirt and lie down. I'll give you acupuncture!" Yang Feilong said.
"Acupuncture?" Xu Xinghe really wanted to say, even medicine doesn't work, will acupuncture help? But since Yang Feilong said so, he still trusted him to some extent. After all, Yang Feilong was called a divine doctor by his sworn brother. Moreover, whether it could be cured would be revealed after the treatment!
Xu Xinghe's hidden ailment was naturally not easy to treat for others, but for Yang Feilong, it was not that difficult, and there were multiple ways to treat it. However, Yang Feilong chose the most convenient one, which was acupuncture therapy.
Using the "Netherworld Life-Snatching Needle" technique, Xu Xinghe's injuries could naturally be healed quickly. The first level of the Netherworld Life-Snatching Needle was enough, let alone the fact that the Netherworld Life-Snatching Needle had reached the perfection of the second level!
Soon, Xu Xinghe witnessed Yang Feilong's Netherworld Life-Snatching Needle. Even with his eyes, he couldn't tell how Yang Feilong performed the acupuncture. It was too fast!
And as Yang Feilong finished the acupuncture, he felt the pain in his heart, which used to flare up intermittently, was rapidly receding.
Xu Xinghe's hidden ailment was caused by a peculiar internal energy that had invaded his heart, damaging its function. This peculiar internal energy was very difficult to expel. Although Xu Xinghe could suppress it, he couldn't get rid of it. Because of this, Xu Xinghe had been suffering from the hidden ailment for years.
As Yang Feilong's treatment progressed, the feeling of the torment disappearing made him so excited that he almost jumped up.
However, he suppressed his inner excitement and waited for the treatment to end.
Finally.
The treatment ended, and the pain caused by the hidden ailment that had tormented him for many years completely disappeared.
As Yang Feilong pulled out the silver needles, he excitedly sat up.
"Haha, it's gone! I can't find that internal energy like a maggot on bone in my heart anymore!" Xu Xinghe said excitedly to Yang Feilong. "You truly are a divine doctor!"
"It's good that it's eradicated," Yang Feilong smiled.
...
Outside the room, Xu Fei looked anxious.
"Can Feilong cure my grandfather?"
"You know your Uncle Ru's condition. He was on the verge of death back then, and even so, Feilong managed to save him. Your grandfather's hidden ailment is stubborn, but it's certainly not that difficult for him to treat!" Hearing this, Tie Yunhan said with a smile.
"I hope so!" Xu Fei waited outside, filled with both anticipation and nervousness.
She didn't know how much time had passed.
Suddenly, she heard her grandfather's hearty laughter from inside the room.
"Could it be... it's already cured?" Xu Fei's eyes lit up, and she said repeatedly.
"It's most likely! Your grandfather hasn't been this happy in a long time!" Xu Xinghe said with a smile.
"He really has some skill!" Xu Fei clenched her fists and waved them. "Should we go in and see?"
"There's no rush. Don't disturb Feilong's treatment," Tie Yunhan said.
"Alright then!" Although Xu Fei wanted to go in and see, she decided to wait after hearing this.
Not long after.
The door opened, and two figures walked out of the room.
"Grandpa, is it cured?" Xu Fei asked repeatedly, extremely nervous.
Her grandfather had been so happy earlier, and it seemed like he was cured, but she was still a little uneasy since she hadn't heard him say it out loud.
"It's cured! Feilong lives up to the name of a divine doctor!" Xu Xinghe said with emotion. Before, he was very satisfied with Yang Feilong, but now he was even more satisfied. This was exactly the person he had always wanted for his beloved granddaughter, Xu Fei! Talented, handsome, gifted, and powerful, he was simply the perfect candidate for a grandson-in-law. Although the young masters from the Wang and Li families were decent, they were far inferior to Yang Feilong.
"Congratulations, elder brother, on recovering from your hidden ailment!" Tie Yunhan also congratulated him with a smile.
"Not only is the hidden ailment cured, but with the absence of its influence, I have a feeling that I can break through to the middle stage of the Heavenly Martial Realm at any moment!" Xu Xinghe said with unconcealable joy.
"That's wonderful!" Xu Fei smiled happily.
Her grandfather had been stuck in the early stage of the Heavenly Martial Realm for a long time. Now, not only was the hidden ailment gone, but he could also advance further. In the future, there was hope for him to break through to the Hegemonic Martial Realm and dominate a region!
The Heavenly Martial Realm was already the pillar of many first-class families, while the existence of the Hegemonic Martial Realm could elevate a family to another level, reaching the standard of a top ancient martial family. Top ancient martial families almost always had Hegemonic Martial Realm experts guarding them.
Families with experts in the Profound Martial Realm, the ninth level of ancient martial arts, or even higher cultivation levels, could generally be called ancient martial aristocratic families! Of course, not all families that reached this level were called ancient martial aristocratic families, because ancient martial aristocratic families had been passed down for many generations. Two or three generations could not be called an aristocratic family. And those called ancient martial aristocratic families were rarely weak! However, ancient martial aristocratic families rarely appeared in the world, and even when they did, it was usually only a few younger generations who would emerge.
"Yang Feilong, thank you!" Xu Fei looked at Yang Feilong favorably for the first time in a while.
"No need to thank me," Yang Feilong waved his hand, then said to Tie Yunhan and Xu Xinghe, "Two grandfathers, the hidden ailment has been cured. I have other matters to attend to, so I will not be staying with you."
"You're leaving so soon?" Tie Yunhan said.
"That won't do at all!" Xu Xinghe also said repeatedly. "You saved me, and I haven't even given you the consultation fee. You must at least stay for a meal, so we can fulfill our duties as hosts."
Xu Fei looked at Yang Feilong with dissatisfaction. "If you leave in such a hurry, won't my Xu family be seen as an ungrateful family if this gets out?"
Yang Feilong said helplessly, "I really have something to do."
"It shouldn't be something urgent, should it? If it's not urgent, it won't matter if it's a little later. Regardless, you must stay for a meal, and I've also prepared a gift for you!" Xu Xinghe said earnestly.
"This..." Yang Feilong hesitated upon hearing this. The matter was indeed not particularly urgent. Although it wasn't urgent, he had finally managed to spend a few days with his sister, so how could he stand her up? Therefore, in his heart, it was a rather important matter!
"My girlfriend is waiting for me," Yang Feilong said after some thought. "I promised her that I would have lunch with her today and then take her around." He said this for two reasons: to prevent Xu Xinghe from trying to match him with his granddaughter again, and to show that he genuinely had something to do.
Upon hearing this, Xu Fei pouted, her expression not looking too good. This guy really had many girlfriends, and he had a girlfriend everywhere!
"Why don't you have your girlfriend come over too?" Xu Xinghe asked with a smile. He already knew that Yang Feilong had quite a few girlfriends and had no intention of being possessive. Moreover, he could see that Yang Feilong treated his girlfriends with great importance. If he could end up with his granddaughter, wouldn't he also cherish his granddaughter?
"Uh, well, I'll call and ask. She might not be willing to come," Yang Feilong said helplessly.
"Give it a try. If it's absolutely impossible, then we won't keep you for lunch," Xu Xinghe said.
"Alright then!" Since it had come to this, Yang Feilong no longer refused.
