I am a master of both medicine and martial arts; after my release from prison, I will dominate the w

The guests present were in an uproar.

If someone else had said such a thing, everyone would have scoffed, but Xiao Yuening is Xiao Zhantian's granddaughter and the number one female war goddess of the Great Xia Dynasty, which makes everyone feel a bit puzzled.

Is there anyone with better medical skills than the Hua family?

Hua Xiyue was taken aback at first, but then immediately realized that Xiao Yuening was saying these things to save face.

"I didn't expect you to be such a show-off. Let me put it this way, no matter what unorthodox methods you use, in this world, only the Hua family can suppress this fire poison. As for eradicating it, hehe, unless an immortal descends to earth."

These words were spoken with great confidence, and everyone present nodded in agreement.

If someone else said this, they would doubt it, but when it comes from the eldest daughter of the Hua family, it is 100% the truth.

Xiao Yuening ignored him and directly took out the two ice-blue pills that Chu Yang had given her and placed them in Xiao Zhantian's hand.

"Grandpa said that if you eat both of them at once, the fire poison will naturally be eliminated."

Xiao Zhantian smiled and swallowed the two pills in one gulp in front of everyone.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on Xiao Zhantian.

Due to the fire poison, he now has red spots on many parts of his body.

Some people have witnessed Xiao Zhantian's reaction after consuming the "Mysterious Ice Pill".

The color of those spots will fade a lot.

A full half minute passed, and the red spots on Xiao Zhantian's hands and face caused by the fire poison still showed no reaction.

Hua Xiyue's lips curled into a mocking sneer. "War God Xiao, it seems you've been deceived. I can only hope that heaven will have mercy on you and not let your worrisome intelligence cause Grandpa Xiao's health to suffer."

As soon as these words were spoken, the guests present all had the same idea, and whispers of discussion arose one after another.

Xiao Yuening, however, disagreed.

Although Chu Yang's medical skills were always unexpected, she had personally "verified" them many times.

Just as the murmurs among the crowd grew louder, the butler suddenly stepped forward to support Xiao Zhantian, who was unsteady on his feet.

Upon closer inspection, everyone noticed that Xiao Zhantian's entire body was enveloped in a thin layer of purple mist.

"Ah... Old Master Xiao... has he been poisoned?"

"Oh my god! This color looks so weird."

"Hey? No, look closely! That mist is coming from those reddish spots on Old Xiao's skin."

"Yes, yes, those spots seem... to have faded."

At this moment, even Hua Xiyue's usually calm and composed face was rippled as she looked at everything that was happening in front of her in disbelief.

She hurriedly extended her moonlight, only to discover to her surprise that the purple mist was a manifestation of the fire poison being expelled from her body by an unknown, cold energy.

"How...how is this possible?"

Shocked, she looked at Xiao Yuening and asked, "Where did you get such a sinister pill?"

Before Xiao Yuening could speak, the purple mist around Xiao Zhantian stopped emanating, and the previously red spots on his exposed skin were now just faint, negligible marks.

He waved to Hua Xiyue with a radiant smile.

"Xiyue, come and take a look at me. I feel... I haven't felt this relaxed in over a decade."

A moment later, Hua Xiyue's pretty face was filled with shock.

From the moment Xiao Zhantian took the pill, it should have taken no more than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

The fire poison actually dissipated completely.

Moreover, the unknown evil force that drove away the fire poison left no trace, as if it had never appeared.

At first, she thought that some quack had used a heretical method called "driving a tiger to devour a wolf," and even if it could expel the fire poison, it would definitely cause more serious damage to Xiao Zhantian's body.

At this moment, Xiao Yuening said arrogantly, "Heh, you said 'trying to please the crowd' before, and just now you said 'evil thing,' but judging from your expression now, my grandfather's illness seems to have been cured, right?"

"you!!!"

This was the first time Hua Xiyue had been rendered speechless by someone in the medical field, but it was indeed true that she had never lied in the medical field in her entire life.

"That's right! Grandpa Xiao's fire poison... has been removed."

These words immediately caused an uproar among everyone present.

"My God! Wasn't it just said that only gods could do that?"

"Could it be that someone in our Great Xia Dynasty has medical skills superior to those of the Hua family?"

"Hiss... Wasn't Miss Hua a little too... just now?"

Many people discussed it, but no one dared to say anything that would damage the Hua family's reputation.

But these things have almost caused Hua Xiyue's proud heart to collapse.

From childhood to adulthood, when has she ever been questioned like this?

"I won't argue with you! Whether Grandpa Xiao's illness was cured by the Xuanbing Pill that my Hua family has provided for many years is still unknown."

Xiao Yuening sneered, "Oh? You, the dignified young lady of the Hua family, say such things without blushing?"

Hua Xiyue changed the subject, "My Hua family doesn't need to explain its actions to anyone. But there's still a bet to be made today."

She gave a concise explanation of the bet.

Those present who wanted to curry favor with the Hua family stepped forward one after another.

Jiang Yun shouted, "These ignorant and despicable scoundrels are truly despicable! They made a bet but acted like cowards, and their behavior is so shameless! Everyone should kill them!"

Qin Yan said indignantly, "There's no need for Miss Hua to take action. My Qin family guarantees that within three days, no matter where that guy escapes to, we will definitely capture him and hand him over to Miss Hua."

Chu Yang thought to himself, "These bastards are really good at sucking up. And let me tell you, with Hua Xiyue's face and figure, most people really can't resist."

At this moment, Qin Yan stepped forward and said, "Miss Hua, who exactly is that ignorant and reckless person? I'll have someone arrest him right now."

Hua Xiyue parted her lips slightly, about to speak, when Xiao Zhanshen spoke.

"To be fair, old man, this is a bet between Xiyue and someone else, and the outcome is still undecided. The rest of you shouldn't get involved!"

Qin Yan awkwardly stepped back.

"Grandpa Xiao, I was a bit abrupt."

Xiao Zhantian looked at Lü Wenguang.

"Mayor Lü, since it's for your daughter's medical treatment, please bring her here quickly. It's not easy for Xiyue to come to the East Sea."

Lu Wenguang quickly had his family's private medical staff move Lu Sisi into the yard in a medical transfer vehicle.

"Mayor Lü," Xiao Zhantian beckoned, "I know you care about your daughter, but it's best to leave the treatment to the professionals. Come sit next to me."

While feeling flattered, Lü Wenguang also sensed that something was amiss.

Although he was the mayor, everyone present was either rich or powerful. Even if he was of a higher status than many of them, he was definitely not someone who stood out from the crowd.

"Mr. Xiao, you flatter me greatly."

Upon approaching, he bowed respectfully.

Xiao Zhantian pointed to the seat next to him, "Sit down!"

As soon as Lü Wenguang sat down, Xiao Zhantian said again, "When others make bets, Mayor Lü should just follow along and enjoy the benefits. These days, the more you say, the more mistakes you make!"

Lu Wenguang quickly nodded, "Old Xiao is right. I will certainly follow your teachings."

If he still doesn't understand that Xiao Zhantian doesn't want him to reveal the details of the bet, then he's done his job as mayor in vain.

Just then, Hua Xiyue looked up at the moon, standing under its clear light, her white skirt swaying gently in the still air.

Her ethereal beauty and elegance captivated almost everyone who saw her.

A moment later, she gently raised her hand, and nine silver needles spun between her fingers, gleaming with a cold, eerie light, as if they had captured the chilling radiance of the moon.

Her jade-like profile blended into the watery night, the pearl hairpin in her hair reflecting the cool moonlight, making her resemble a pristine, untouched night-blooming cereus under the moon.

Chu Yang shook his head inwardly as he read it.

In his opinion, Hua Xiyue's technique was indeed skillful, with the angle, force, and use of true qi all just right, but it was too flashy and had too many fancy moves.

This level of treatment must be meticulous; a quiet place should be chosen, and the patient's clothing should be removed to ensure that nothing is overlooked.

Moreover, it was precisely Hua Xiyue's graceful and agile skills that stunned all the laymen present.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause that lasted for a long time.

Hua Xiyue gazed intently at the moon, absorbing its pure, bright light.

With a light touch of her slender fingers, nine silver needles gleamed with a faint light, and the cool moonlight, like silk threads, was injected into Lü Sisi's acupoints from the needle ends, slowly circulating within her body.

A faint glow appeared on Lü Sisi's pale skin.

A short while later, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Quick...look, Miss Lü is awake!"
