After obtaining the Yin-Yang inheritance, I became invincible.

"stop!"

Qiao Qingshan's authoritative voice rang out.

"Step back!"

He Qiming withdrew his right hand, which had been suspended in mid-air, and returned to the corner.

Yun Chen smiled and looked at He Qiming.

"You acted faster this time than the previous two times!"

His words left everyone puzzled.

He Qiming was also completely baffled.

Yun Chen smiled meaningfully: "So... you're a 'simp' hiding in the shadows."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at He Qiming with surprise.

At this moment, He Qiming's secret was exposed by Yun Chen's words, and he instantly felt that he had already suffered social death.

"No... I, I'm not... that..."

Qiao Qingshan was clearly surprised as well, never expecting that He Qiming would have such feelings for Qiao Zhiyao.

But he immediately frowned and pressed his hand down.

"Stop talking! Start the treatment now!"

He's furious right now.

The treatment process, which should have gone smoothly, immediately became complicated and unpredictable because of Yun Chen's arrival.

Qiao Zhiyao glared fiercely at Yun Chen.

"Just wait until I recover, I'll make sure you don't get away with this!"

Yun Chen didn't retort to Qiao Zhiyao this time, because he had already used his pupil technique to look at Qiao Zhiyao from head to toe, inside and out.

Qiao Zhiyao doesn't have a cold pulse syndrome at all, but rather a very special constitution—the "Ice Body".

This is not an illness, so there is no cure.

People with this constitution generally do not live past the age of 25; many die young, and their deaths are often painful.

Even if you soak in a hot water pool, it will only change the temperature of your body surface; eventually, the meridians inside your body will be frozen.

Qiao Zhiyao is now close to the final stage.

Yun Chen just wanted to see what exactly this "Cold-Dissolving Pill" that Sun Dechuan was talking about was.

Sun Dechuan took out silver needles and inserted them into several acupoints on Qiao Zhiyao's arms, calves, and head.

"Ouch...it hurts!"

Qiao Zhiyao placed one hand on her chest, her expression somewhat distorted.

"Miss Qiao, don't panic. I'll first nourish you with my unique acupuncture technique, and then I'll use the 'Cold-Dispelling Pill' in conjunction with it. The effect will be immediate. You'll be rid of your pain soon!"

After a moment of contemplation, Qiao Zhiyao's face lit up with joy.

"I don't feel so cold anymore."

The other elderly men had never seen this combination of acupoints in acupuncture before, and fearing they might forget it, they quickly took out their notebooks and began to take careful notes.

Sun Dechuan's lips curled into a smug smile as he glanced at Yun Chen.

"See? This is true medicine! All your unorthodox methods are a joke in my eyes!"

Yun Chen ignored Sun Dechuan's provocation, but he was somewhat puzzled.

The combination of these acupoints is meant to open the "heart gate".

Once the "heart gate" is opened, it's as if all of the body's defenses are removed, naturally dissipating some of the coldness in the body, giving Qiao Zhiyao the illusion of a temporary improvement.

Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners never treat illnesses this way, so it's normal that those doctors haven't seen it before.

What truly needs to be opened is often harmful and evil magic.

Moreover, judging from Sun Dechuan's needle insertion technique, it wasn't very smooth; it seemed like he needed to carefully recall each insertion.

This is clearly someone learning on the spot.

Yun Chen had a vague guess in his heart.

It seems this guy has powerful connections.

That person was the true heretic, and he taught Sun Dechuan unorthodox and evil arts.

At this moment, feeling the coldness in her body relieved, Qiao Zhiyao showed gratitude.

"Dr. Sun, thank you so much! I will definitely ask my father to give you an extra generous gift."

Sun Dechuan waved his hand calmly and said, "A doctor's duty is to heal the sick and save lives, not for that little bit of money."

Qiao Zhiyao nodded repeatedly: "Not only are your medical skills superb, but your character is also noble! Unlike some people!"

She looked at Yun Chen, her eyes filled with anger and disdain.

"His head is stinking for money. He has absolutely no real skills, yet he keeps asking for payment! People like him should be dragged out and shot!"

Yun Chen smiled and did not refute.

But this led Qiao Zhiyao to believe that Yun Chen was just there to freeload off the five million yuan consultation fee.

"What are you laughing at? I won't let you take a single penny today! You'll have to kneel down and kowtow to Doctor Sun to admit your mistake!"

The other doctors all had expressions of agreement on their faces.

"I feel inferior standing next to someone like that."

"Absolutely! This kind of ignorant charlatan should be thrown in jail."

Yu Chunlin, who was always modest, couldn't stand it anymore.

"Gentlemen, please watch your words. Mr. Yun hasn't provoked you at all since he walked in. Why are you so relentless in targeting him?"

Yu Chunlin was already being very polite; he didn't directly say that these people were just sycophants.

After praising Sun Dechuan, they've now seized the opportunity to start praising the city lord's daughter.

Yu Chunlin still held considerable prestige in Canghai City, and those people didn't want things to get too tense, so they simply turned their faces away.

Yu Chunlin, standing beside Yun Chen, lowered his voice and said, "How about... we just leave? We don't need that five million."

It's not that he doesn't trust Yun Chen, it's just that Yun Chen isn't giving him a chance right now.

If Yun Chen stays, he might get even more scorned by these snobs.

Yun Chen smiled and patted Yu Chunlin on the shoulder, expressing his high regard for Yu Chunlin's character.

"Old Yu, I've decided to be your friend."

Just then, Sun Dechuan took out a jade bottle with exquisite carving and a smooth texture from the briefcase he was carrying.

When the jade bottle was exposed to the air, layers of white mist condensed around it.

Yun Chen was slightly taken aback.

"A thousand-year-old jade bottle?"

He could hardly believe that something that could be considered a treasure even in martial arts sects was in the hands of someone like Sun Dechuan.

Although the others did not recognize the material of the jade bottle, they could still sense its extraordinary nature.

The moment Sun Dechuan opened the jade bottle, a beam of red light shot out from the bottle's mouth.

A rich aroma immediately spread and filled the room.

"This... must be an unparalleled elixir, right?"

"I never expected that Doctor Sun would be so skilled."

Seeing this strange phenomenon, even the well-traveled and knowledgeable Qiao Qingshan was amazed.

Only Gu Chenghua maintained a suspicious expression.

Sun Dechuan shook the jade bottle in his hand.

This action seemed unintentional, but Yun Chen noticed that Sun Dechuan was swaying very rhythmically.

"Miss Qiao, this Cold-Dispelling Pill cannot be exposed to light. I will feed it to you."

After thanking her repeatedly, Qiao Zhiyao opened her mouth.

Sun Dechuan turned the jade bottle upside down.

Qiao Zhiyao unconsciously swallowed.

The next instant, her face visibly changed from pale to rosy, and she immediately began to sweat profusely, her hair on her forehead already soaked.

The crowd exclaimed in amazement at the miracle.

As far as they knew, this city lord's daughter had never shed a drop of sweat since she was a child.

"Dad, I...I've never felt so comfortable before!"

Qiao Zhiyao's voice trembled as she gently raised her hand and wiped her forehead.

As she looked at the sweat on her hands, tears streamed down her face.

"I...feel like a normal person now!"

Seeing this, Qiao Qingshan's eyes welled up with tears. He stepped forward, took his daughter's hand, and felt its warmth.

"It's hot! My daughter... is hot."

His ability to organize his thoughts was also diminished by his excitement.

But everyone can understand how a father feels at this moment.

Sun Dechuan stood with his hands behind his back, adopting an air of superiority. His gaze swept over everyone present, lingering for a moment on Yun Chen's face, before he spoke arrogantly:

"The Cold-Dispelling Pill is an ancient secret medicine, specifically designed to cure cold-related ailments. If Miss Qiao takes it today, the coldness will be completely eliminated in just half an incense stick's time, and she will be no different from an ordinary person from now on."

Qiao Qingshan's voice trembled with excitement: "Dr. Sun, your kindness is beyond words! I, Qiao, will certainly repay you handsomely!"

Sun Dechuan smiled wryly and said, "My lord, I am of limited talent and learning. I was just accused of being a quack doctor who misleads people. I'm afraid I will have difficulty facing the world in the future!"

Sun Dechuan's miraculous medical skills impressed Qiao Qingshan.

This kind of miraculous doctor is exactly the kind of talent that all the major families are vying to befriend.

Qiao Qingshan looked at Yun Chen without hesitation, his eyes flashing with cold light.

"You have repeatedly slandered me and shown disrespect to Doctor Sun. Now kneel down and apologize!"
