Chapter 601 When did you find out?

Tiangong Hospital. Intensive Care Unit.

After checking the old man's vital signs, Qin Luo, dressed in full sterile clothing, said with a solemn expression, "Without a replacement nutrient solution, we need to perform surgery on the patient immediately."

A suitable nutrient solution won't be available anytime soon; surgery must be performed immediately to save the patient's life.

Surgery offers a glimmer of hope; without it, death is certain.
Tang Fei looked at Qin Luo with concern and asked, "After such a long journey, the starship has only just landed. Can your body handle it?"

"It's nothing. I took a nap on the way, and I feel great now." Qin Luo felt a warm current in his heart; this kid still knew how to care about people.

He had already read the handwritten letter Phoenix had given him on his way. In the letter, Phoenix sincerely invited him and expressed his deepest gratitude for Phoenix's righteous act.

Yes, and of course, guilt.
After all, Phoenix didn't have the thick skin of this kid. Phoenix knew that as long as he appeared in the wasteland, it would be tantamount to 'treason'.

The Shen family will not let him and his family have an easy time.

But he had no other choice. By the time he saw the letter, he was already on a starship bound for the desolate land.

This kid doesn't give himself a chance to 'refuse' at all.

He was afraid that even the Phoenix brand wouldn't be effective.
Is there anyone in this world he can trust?
"That's good." Tang Fei visibly relaxed and looked at Qin Luo, instructing him, "This surgery is extremely important for us all. Dr. Qin, you absolutely cannot fail."

"." Qin Luo.

The warmth in his heart instantly froze into ice; he had been moved too soon.

This kid has no heart at all.
Seeing Dr. Qin Luo's sudden change in expression, Lu Dongsheng quickly spoke up to smooth things over, saying, "Tang Fei is just worried and confused. Dr. Qin, just do your best. As the Empire's number one healer, there is no disease in this world that you cannot cure."

"." Qin Luo.

You'd be better off not offering any comfort.

Those who elevate themselves to such high positions are still threatening themselves by insisting on curing the patients.

"You can all leave now, I'm about to start the surgery. My assistant can stay and help."

"Are the two of you enough?" Tang Fei asked with concern. "We also have one of the top ten doctors in the Mechanical City who can assist you."

"Get out, get out." Qin Luo started to shoo people away.

So everyone else left, and the door to the intensive care unit slammed shut.

Tiangong Academy can be considered Lu's private hospital. Due to Lu Yu's special status, it has the most complete independent wards, which can handle both routine maintenance and direct surgery without any problems.

In the age of technology, machines reign supreme.

What humans can do, intelligent life forms can do even better.

Except for medical skills.

Tang Fei, Xiao Pang, Lu Siyu, and the others waited anxiously outside the door, but now everyone had fallen silent.

They had just seen the old man's vital signs and knew his condition was not optimistic.

Qin Luo is indeed the empire's top surgeon, but when it comes to healing and saving lives...
Luck is also needed.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes
Every minute and every second is suffering.

Tang Fei saw that Xiao Pang's big face was flushed and sweat was starting to drip from his forehead.

I wonder what this kid has been up to lately, he's so unpredictable.
Tang Fei thought to himself, and secretly wiped the sweat from his palms.

Half an hour passed, and the titanium alloy door of the operating room remained completely still.

Lu Siyu was a little anxious. She stepped forward and grabbed Tang Fei's arm with great force, making Tang Fei feel pain.

"Old man, is he alright?"

"It's alright." Tang Fei looked at Lu Siyu with a firm gaze, even forcing a smile, and gently comforted her, "Good people don't live long, but evil people live for a thousand years. The old man's temperament is like mine, so he won't die easily."

“Hmm.” Lu Siyu nodded seriously, surprisingly not refuting Tang Fei’s words about ‘treason’.

All she wanted was for the old man to live, no matter the reason.
Another hour passed, and just as the crowd at the door began to feel anxious, the red light at the operating room door turned green, and the titanium doors slowly began to open to both sides.

Tang Fei, Little Fatty Lu, and the others swarmed around Qin Luo, who had just come out, surrounding him. "How's the old man?"

"Was the surgery successful?"

"Speak up! What happened to my godfather?"
-
Dr. Qin Luo was weak and pale, clearly indicating that the treatment had exhausted all his energy.

His face and body were covered in sweat, and even his surgical gown was soaked.

The operating room was equipped with a constant temperature and humidity system, which shows what kind of torment he went through inside.

His face was cold and stern, and he remained silent, staring at the crowd with a defeated look in his eyes.

It's like we just suffered a defeat.

defeat?

"Dr. Qin!" Tang Fei panicked, grabbing Qin Luo's hand, his voice trembling, "Old man... is he alright?"

"It's nothing," Dr. Qin Luo said expressionlessly.

"Ok?"

"I want to take a cold shower."

After saying that, everything went black, and he collapsed into Tang Fei's arms.

I thought to myself, "You little brat, just wait till I scare you to death!"
It's better to offend the King of Hell than to offend a doctor.

This was his revenge against the Tang bandits for forcibly abducting him here.

"Dr. Qin, Dr. Qin."

Tang Fei held Qin Luo's unconscious body and called out urgently.
-
In the hospital's VIP lounge, Tang Fei, Little Fatty Lu, and others were still waiting, and none of the Lu family's direct descendants, including Lu Dongsheng and Lu Shiyu, had left.

Everyone was waiting for the old man to open his eyes.

Only in this way can they truly feel at ease.

Lu Dongyang and Lu Yan also withdrew from the front-line base and rushed to the hospital ward as soon as possible.

Upon hearing Dr. Qin Luo say that the old man was alright, Lu Dongyang happily said, "You have to believe Qin Luo! If the King of Hell wants someone to die at midnight, he can keep them alive until dawn. The Empire's number one divine physician is not just a name without substance!"

Yes, everyone understands the logic, but still no one has left.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Lu Dongyang went straight to Tang Fei and asked in a low voice, "I heard you won a great victory in Phoenix City? Not only did you annihilate the Overlord Blade Sect, but you also turned 30,000 Undying Soldiers against you?"

“It wasn’t a defection.” Tang Fei said calmly, carefully correcting Lu Dongyang’s mistake, “They were originally our people.”

Snapped!
Lu Dongyang was in high spirits, grinning from ear to ear, and slapped Tang Fei on the shoulder: "Well done!"

That's amazing! Absolutely incredible!

They fought against the Shen family's enemy forces from all sides in the desolate land, and after so long, they probably still hadn't killed 30,000 people.

This kid is something else. He went to Phoenix City, brought back the divine physician Qin Luo to treat Lu Yu, and at the same time, he wiped out the Empire's number one sect, the Overlord Blade Sect, and brought back an elite force of 30,000 men.
Oh, and equipment too.

A great victory! A bloodless victory!

"I just did what I could," Tang Fei said modestly.

He was never a high-profile person; for example, he never boasted that he was number one on the blue list of the Empire's red and blue lists.

Shen Xinglan?
Sorry, he's already been stepped on by himself.

"Don't be modest, I've known all along that you're a born leader."

"When did you know that?"

"."
