Chapter 661: Chapter 661

Ellie's expression grew unpleasant. Xu Hao had indeed given her some benefits, but she was still unwilling to let Xu Hao treat Professor Richard, as she looked down on traditional Chinese medicine.

However, Xu Hao ignored her and walked straight to Professor Richard's bedside.

Human life was at stake. Although the words of Assistant Ellie were unpleasant, since Ji Feng had sought him out, Xu Hao was still willing to help.

Seeing Professor Richard's condition only strengthened Xu Hao's resolve.

At this moment, Teacher Liu said from behind, "Professor Xu, have you figured out anything? I mean, if you can't figure it out, don't pretend to understand. It just wastes everyone's time."

Xu Hao smiled and said, "Of course, I have figured out the cause of his illness. Actually, it's not that complex. His body has been eroded by some evil energy, but this evil energy is not ordinary. It has been artificially modified, or should I say, it involves some man-made elements.

This has caused his disease to appear at first like common cold symptoms, but as time passes, the condition worsens. Ultimately, removing the peculiar evil energy will do the job."

"Evil energy? Professor Xu, we are talking about science here. What nonsense are you talking about? What evil energy? These are remnants of feudal society, mere dregs!"

Xu Hao was momentarily speechless and said, "You haven't seen it before. I am telling you now, yet you don't believe it. It seems I really need to enlighten you."

Ellie also said, "Professor Xu, you just effortlessly cured my cold, and I can admire you for that, because you really are somewhat miraculous. However, talking about this evil energy, isn't that a bit far-fetched?

I can say that I'm well-versed in Huaya, and I understand a lot about it. This evil energy is a concept from ancient geomancy, right? But weren't those things proven false? Many have already debunked them, yet you claim Professor Richard's illness is due to the erosion by evil energy. Professor Xu, you're not drunk, are you?"

Even Ji Feng was somewhat confused by now. How could Xu Hao say Professor Richard's illness was due to evil energy?

He himself couldn't believe it!

All that talk about evil energy and such, weren't they just fabrications by geomancy scammers?

The ten people standing behind them also showed complete disbelief.

Xu Hao's acupuncture skills were indeed magical and his medical skills exquisite, but that didn't mean everything he said was correct. Everyone had their own minds and could think independently about what to believe and what not to.

How could they believe in something like evil energy, which had been debunked numerous times?

Seeing that everyone disbelieved what Xu Hao had said, Anna immediately spoke up, "Why don't you believe him? What my brother says is definitely right!"

Director Ji's face showed a trace of apology as he said, "Professor Xu, pardon my boldness, but while I believe your medical skills are extremely advanced, far surpassing ours, we really do not believe in this evil energy thing."

Xu Hao laughed and said, "You don't have to believe now. I'll wake him up in a moment."

Ellie hurriedly said, "Professor Xu, why don't we wake Professor Richard up and listen to what he thinks?"

Xu Hao waved his hand somewhat decisively and said, "No need for such fuss, Anna still has class later, I'm pressed for time."

Ellie immediately said, "But what if something happens…"

Xu Hao immediately replied, "Should something happen, I will take full responsibility."

"Alright then." With no choice, Ellie had to step back, making room.

Teacher Liu watched from behind with a skeptical eye. Xu Hao's earlier maneuver, "Spring Wind Transforms into Rain," had truly shocked him; it hardly seemed like a human capability, more like something supernatural.

By now, he had finally gotten somewhat intimidated.

Xu Hao reached out for a needle box passed by a nearby doctor, brought over by Ji Feng just moments ago. The most up‑to‑date version is on *.

Xu Hao pulled out a Silver Needle and said, "One needle brings life, the Second Needle Death, Three Needle Flesh and Bones. I can now perform The Second Needle, and while you all can watch, learning something might be difficult."

He didn't elaborate much, but some people, like Ji Feng, were fully aware that executing the Defying Heaven Nine Needles required combining a special type of Qi Force inside the body to achieve its miraculous effects.

Who among those present possessed Qi Force?

So, there was almost no chance anyone could learn the Defying Heaven Nine Needles.

Moreover, given the miraculous effects of the Defying Heaven Nine Needles, how could it be easily learned?

Without considerable contemplation and guidance from a great master, understanding it would likely be difficult!

Regardless of what everyone thought, Xu Hao was already standing next to Professor Richard, holding a Silver Needle.

Xu Hao felt a chill in his heart.

Professor Richard's identity was somewhat unusual. On the surface, he was a Nobel Prize winner, but actually, he held another identity, which Wang Zhong had just informed him about.
