Chapter 52: Chapter 52

"Yes, Boss!" Ouyang Yu respectfully answered and quickly retreated.

"Let’s make this clear, your brother has been poisoned with a very powerful toxin, and at the same time, he’s been cursed with an evil spell! It’s five million to detoxify, and another five million to drive out the evil spell, totaling ten million!" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.

If it weren’t for the need of her corporate channels to market his company’s products in the future, let alone ten million, even a billion wouldn’t tempt Zhang Xiaohao to wade into these murky waters.

"Fine! As long as you cure Tianle, not to mention ten million, I would give you twenty million!" Guan Qingxue said earnestly.

She clapped her hands!

A bodyguard respectfully brought over an LV tote bag.

Guan Qingxue took out a checkbook, and with swift strokes, she wrote a check for ten million and handed it over.

Just then, Zhang Jing suddenly rushed from behind, snatched the ten million yuan check from Guan Qingxue’s hand, and stuffed it into Cheng Tianxue’s hand.

Facing Guan Qingxue’s gaze, she said smugly, "Xiao Xue will take the money on his behalf!"

"Okay!" Guan Qingxue glanced at Cheng Tianxue, then at Zhang Xiaohao and nodded in agreement.

"That’s my money, give it back!" Zhang Xiaohao rolled his eyes and said.

"Hmph! Want it? I’m not giving it to you! You eat my food, live in my house, take advantage of me, and still want money? I’m telling you, Zhang Xiaohao, no way!" Cheng Tianxue said coldly, lifting her chin proudly.

"..." Zhang Xiaohao was speechless and touched his nose with a wry smile.

After all the effort, the duck that was almost in his hand had flown away again.

After a pause, Zhang Xiaohao said seriously, "Guan Qingxue stays, everyone else, out!"

"Master, I want to stay too, to follow you closely and learn diligently!" Divine Doctor Mo said.

"Why does she get to stay and we can’t? Today, we’re insisting on staying!" Zhang Jing said, hands on her hips.

"Xiao Jing, let’s just forget it! More people staying here would only be a disturbance; let’s go," Cheng Tianxue said coldly.

"Hmph! Consider yourself lucky today," Zhang Jing snorted coldly, taking Cheng Tianxue’s white-as-lamb-fat jade-like hand, and the two left.

Guan Qingxue closed the door and locked it from inside.

"Strip him down to only his underwear!" Zhang Xiaohao ordered.

"Mhm." Guan Qingxue responded, her face flushed, and without a word, she went up to him with a cold expression.

"Damn! What are you standing there for? Go help!" Seeing Divine Doctor Mo dawdling, Zhang Xiaohao kicked him irritably and said.

"As you wish, Master!" Divine Doctor Mo answered quickly and hurried over.

Together with Guan Qingxue, they stripped Guan Tianle down to his underwear.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohao didn’t delay. He reached into his pocket and theatrically took out a set of silver needles he had carefully crafted from the Shennong Ring.

He unfolded the cloth made from Heavenly Silkworm golden threads, revealing twelve neatly arranged silver needles laid out on the cloth.

He put aside all distractions and focused his mind.

Holding a specially made silver needle, he activated the Shennong Battle Sky Technique inside him, golden True Qi circulating on his five fingers. His gaze sharpened, and like a bolt of lightning, he swiftly inserted the needle into the Bai Hui Acupoint on Guan Tianle’s forehead.

"Hm!" As soon as the needle was inserted, Guan Tianle groaned, emitting a faint sound of pain, his eyebrows tightly furrowed together.

"Master, the technique you’re using isn’t the Heaven-defying Twelve Needles!" Seeing the unfamiliar needling technique Zhang Xiaohao was using, Divine Doctor Mo said, puzzled.

"Shut your mouth! Don’t disturb me. I know what I’m doing!" Zhang Xiaohao said irritably.

Guan Tianle had only been poisoned with a very powerful toxin, which was carefully concocted using seven types of poison and seven poisonous insects. To counter such a toxin, there was no need to use the Heaven-defying Twelve Needles, the ancient world’s foremost needle technique! It was frankly overkill.

Not to mention the waste of spirit and True Qi; moreover, the strain on one’s mental focus was incredibly severe.

Zhang Xiaohao was only responsible for reviving him, not prolonging his life! Besides, he was just in his twenties; deploying the Heaven-defying Twelve Needles, the ancient world’s foremost needle technique, was certainly beyond his qualifications!

"Oh," Divine Doctor Mo replied meekly, his eyes intently fixed on Zhang Xiaohao’s every move, attempting to learn anything at all from him.

Zhang Xiaohao once again took out a second silver needle and infused it with Shennong True Qi. From the outside, the silver needle glistened, shining like gold.

The silver needle in Zhang Xiaohao’s hand was already inserted into the Four-direction Acupoint on Guan Tianle’s chest, sealing the qi and blood within his body.

Afterwards, Zhang Xiaohao’s palms moved rapidly, dazzling to the eyes. In a moment, the twelve silver needles made of Heavenly Silkworm gold threads on a soft cloth had all been inserted into the twelve major acupoints around Guan Tianle’s body. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍

By now, Guan Tianle’s meridians and qi and blood had been completely sealed off!

At the same time, vital areas like Guan Tianle’s brain and heart were also protected by the Shennong True Qi infused within the silver needles!

With this, the first step was considered complete.

Zhang Xiaohao took a deep breath, a glint flashed in his eyes, as he suddenly began to operate the Shennong Battle Sky Technique, concentrating Shennong True Qi into the palm of his right hand.

Index finger and middle finger came together to form a sword-like point.

He pressed down lightning-fast on Guan Tianle’s left foot, starting from the toe and pushing along the meridian paths towards his mouth.

A distance that seemed short took a full three minutes to cover.

Next, Zhang Xiaohao repeated the procedure, the sword-like point of his fingers pressed again onto Guan Tianle’s right foot, moving from the toe toward the mouth once more!

Three minutes passed.

With the strong push of Shennong True Qi, all the poison in Guan Tianle’s lower body had been driven to the area around his mouth, leaving only the toxins that lingered in his brain.

As soon as the toxins in his brain were expelled, the poison within his body would be completely cleared, leaving only the evil techniques that had affected his soul!

Immediately, Zhang Xiaohao’s two fingers pointed again, striking like lightning on top of his Bai Hui Acupoint!

Shennong True Qi flowed though his palm, starting from the Bai Hui Acupoint, frantically compressing the toxins in his brain, pushing them toward the mouth area.

Seeing that all of his toxins had been driven to the area around his mouth, Zhang Xiaohao’s hitherto idle left hand suddenly struck Guan Tianle’s chest.

With a spurting sound!

A mouthful of black poisonous blood suddenly sprayed out from Guan Tianle’s mouth.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Xiaohao finally exhaled in relief. His right hand quickly grabbed and removed all the silver needles from Guan Tianle’s body, inserting them back into the soft cloth made of Heavenly Silkworm gold threads.

"Master, has all the poison in his body been driven out?" Divine Doctor Mo asked anxiously as he saw Zhang Xiaohao putting the needles away.

Guan Qingxue hadn’t spoken, but her tense facial expression revealed the urgency she felt inside.

Meeting their eager gazes, Zhang Xiaohao said seriously, "The poison has been resolved, but there are still some impurities in his soul! Only by completely cleansing these impurities will he fully recover."
