My Ares Son-in-Law

"The second person is the Taoist master from Zhongnan Holy Land," Shen Huo continued, his tone involuntarily revealing a hint of awe and yearning, as if he was referring to a high and mighty god.

"However, this person is mysterious and unpredictable, like a dragon. We can only see his head but not his tail. His whereabouts are erratic. We don't even know where he is, let alone invite him."

"As for the third person..." Shen Huo sighed again, his sigh full of helplessness and regret, as if he was carrying the weight of the entire world.

"He is the legendary doctor who cured Zhao Chuanshen. But the Zhao family is keeping this person a secret, so we have no way of knowing who he is."

Xue Lao's originally calm expression now looked extremely strange, with a subtle look on his face. He frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a complex emotion, as if he was helpless, but also wanted to laugh.

Xue Lao thought to himself: This third person must be Xiao Chen. His figure gradually became clearer in Xue Lao's mind, as if he was right in front of him.

Old Xue couldn't help but sigh, this man, fate really plays tricks on him. If the Shen family hadn't offended Xiao Chen, perhaps things wouldn't have developed to such an uncontrollable point, and Shen Qiang's father wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable situation.

Shen Qiang, who was standing by, became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan when he saw that Xue Lao had not responded for a long time.

His eyes were wide open, and the veins on his forehead were bulging. He shouted, "Master Xue, even if you can't cure my father's illness for the time being, with your superb medical skills, you should be able to temporarily suppress his condition. Let's contact those three people right now. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope. You can't just stand by and watch him die!"

Shen Qiang's voice was filled with anxiety and anticipation, and every word seemed to carry a heavy pressure.

Old Xue slowly raised his head, his eyes calm but with a hint of determination, shook his head and said: "I do have the ability to temporarily suppress the disease, but I am not willing to do it!" His tone was firm, without the slightest hesitation.

"Why!" Shen Qiang's face suddenly turned cold, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. At this moment, he only cared about his father's safety, and he didn't care whether the other party was from Penglai Holy Land.

In his opinion, his father's life is the most important thing, and everything else can be put aside for the time being.

Xue Lao sneered, his eyes revealing a hint of sarcasm: "You can't blame me for this. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't offend. And I can't afford to offend that person, so I can only choose to give up.

If I was absolutely sure that I could cure your father, I would naturally dare to treat him. But now it is just to delay the disease. If something unexpected happens, I will be involved. I am not so stupid as to do such a thankless task!"

Xue Lao's words were full of helplessness and self-protection.

After hearing what Master Xue said, Shen Qiang became furious and was about to lose his temper, but was stopped by Shen Huo who was standing beside him.

Shen Huo had a serious expression and a firm gaze, and said to Xue Lao very seriously: "Xue Lao, I won't make things difficult for you. The person you just mentioned should be here, otherwise you wouldn't be so afraid of him. Let me put it this way, you don't have to feel embarrassed about this matter, just name this person, and we will go and beg him, and we must give it a try no matter what." Shen Huo's voice was steady and powerful, revealing a determination to never give up until his goal was achieved.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Qiang also nodded quickly and said anxiously: "If you can tell us who the person is, we at Oracle Sect will owe you a huge favor. If you need our help in the future, we will definitely do our best to repay you and will never break our promise!"

A glimmer of hope rekindled in Shen Qiang's eyes, as if as long as he knew who that person was, his father would have hope of survival.

Old Xue lowered his head slightly and sighed softly, and that sigh seemed to contain endless helplessness and worry.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes swept across the faces of Shen Huo and Shen Qiang, and said earnestly: "Do you really want me to tell you? But I have to warn you in advance that the man may not be willing to help you. He has a strange temper and his actions are unpredictable. You must be mentally prepared."

Shen Huo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and said:
"Master Xue, that's because you don't understand the influence of our Oracle Sect in the secular world. Our Oracle Sect has been operating in this secular world for many years, with extensive connections and huge power. As long as the other party is really here, we will find a way to get him to help. No matter what method we use, we will try our best to save my father."

Shen Huo appeared calm on the surface, but he had his own plans in mind. He thought, if the other party is unwilling to help, then he will use force. Anyway, his father is dying, and he can't care so much, he can use any means as long as he can save his father's life.

"Okay!" Old Xue nodded slightly, a look of determination in his eyes, and said: "That person is not in the sky, but far away in front of you. In fact, he has always been within your sight." After saying that, Old Xue slowly raised his hand and pointed to one side of the ring.

Everyone looked in the direction of Xue Lao's finger and saw a man sitting there smoking leisurely. This man was Xiao Chen. His figure was looming in the smoke, looking a little mysterious.

Shen Qiang frowned and said with a puzzled look on his face: "There is no one else over there except Xiao Chen. Who are you referring to? Are you talking about him? How is this possible?"

Shen Qiang really couldn't believe what Master Xue said. In his impression, Xiao Chen was just an ordinary young man. How could he have such superb medical skills?

Elder Xue looked determined and said in a very sure tone, "Of course it is Mr. Xiao! Don't underestimate him. His medical skills are unfathomable and have even surpassed mine. In terms of medical skills, I am ashamed to be inferior to him."

At that moment, Shen Huo and Shen Qiang's expressions instantly became extremely stiff, as if they were locked by an invisible shackle.

Their eyes were wide open, their mouths slightly opened, as if they had eaten shit, they were stunned, their faces looked so uncomfortable and weird. They never thought that the person Xue Lao was talking about would be Xiao Chen.

"Who are you talking about? Xiao Chen?" Shen Qiang couldn't help but repeat the question again. He thought he had heard it wrong and hoped that Master Xue could give a different answer.

Elder Xue raised his hand again, pointed at Xiao Chen, and replied with a look of affirmation in his eyes: "I am talking about Mr. Xiao. His medical skills are beyond your imagination. Haven't you always wondered who cured Zhao Chuanshen?" (End of this chapter)
