"All right, if you've memorized it, hurry over and seize the items."

After explaining to Liu Chongwu what he would need later on, Xu Fan led Gongsun Qin towards the patient's room.

"Xu Fan, the people accompanying that guy just now, they all seem to be no ordinary folks..."

At this moment, Gongsun Qin couldn't help but remind Xu Fan.

Although not entirely sure about the conflict between Xu Fan and Ye Chongshan, she could tell that those Ye Chongshan had brought with him were some of the top experts.

That guy obviously came from no shallow background.

"I know."

Xu Fan nodded, as he naturally saw through the strengths and weaknesses of Ye Chongshan's entourage.

However, just those few Neijia masters alone wouldn't give Ye Chongshan such brazen confidence.

There must be an ace up that guy's sleeve that Xu Fan was unaware of.

"Let's drop this topic for now, let's go inside first."

They now reached the entrance of the patient's room, where Xu Fan interrupted Gongsun Qin and walked in through the door.

"Boss..."

There lay Han Dongxu on the bed. Seeing Xu Fan return, he made an effort to greet him.

Though he did not leave the room, he had still heard that enemies seemed to have arrived just moments before.

Worriedly, he gazed at Xu Fan, wanting to get to the bottom of what exactly had happened.

"Enough, don't ask so many questions. From now on, focus on recovering, understand?"

"This..."

Seeing Xu Fan's smile directed at him, Han Dongxu couldn't help but be taken aback.

Just being able to hold on to see Xu Fan return was already extremely hard for him; he was on the brink of death, so telling him to recover was that not a joke?

Watching Han Dongxu's bitter expression, Xu Fan chuckled and then explained, "Your injuries are indeed very difficult to cure, but that's only in relation to other people."

To be honest, even he would have a hard time bringing Han Dongxu back from Ghost Gate Pass without top-grade medicinal materials.

But if he were to utilize the spiritual power contained within the Jiuyang Warm Jade, that would be another story.

With this thought, Xu Fan took out the four pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade from his chest.

Initially, these four pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade were meant for attempting a breakthrough in his cultivation level, but now, with Han Dongxu's life hanging by a thread, previous plans had to be abandoned.

He had ended up in this state due to Xu Fan's actions; no matter what, Xu Fan couldn't neglect him.

"Boss, everything is ready."

At this time, Liu Chongwu arrived with a group of people, carrying all the items that Xu Fan had just instructed them to fetch.

Standing up straight, Xu Fan looked at Han Dongxu and said, "Although I can save your life, your cultivation level will inevitably suffer a severe setback, so prepare yourself mentally."

"Boss, I can't thank you enough..."

Han Dongxu gave a wry smile and let out a sigh. Now, what else could he desire when simply staying alive was already fortunate enough?

He could see that the four Jade Pendants in Xu Fan's hands were precious, and their use on him made him feel somewhat guilty.

But without dawdling, he silently committed this act of grace to memory.

"What are you spacing out for?"

Having checked the items brought by Liu Chongwu, Xu Fan was ready to start treating Han Dongxu.

One person might get overwhelmed, but fortunately, Gongsun Qin was by his side.

With her help, Xu Fan could ease up a bit later on.

Seeing her lost in thought, Xu Fan couldn't help but remind her.

"No... it's nothing..."

Startled by the shout, Gongsun Qin quickly snapped back to reality.

The reason she had been in a daze was due to the four pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade Xu Fan was preparing to use to save someone.

Truth be told, she hadn't quite understood why these people were willing to give their lives for Xu Fan.

But when she saw Xu Fan unhesitatingly take out those four pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade just now, she understood everything.

Now stealing glances at Xu Fan, Gongsun Qin realized that he wasn't as bad as she had imagined.

With Liu Chongwu and his men guarding outside, Xu Fan wasn't worried about being disturbed while he worked.

After arranging everything, he walked over to Han Dongxu.

"It might hurt a lot soon, but remember, no matter what, you have to hold on," Xu Fan instructed.

"Don't worry, boss," Han Dongxu nodded, his eyes brimming with determination.

He certainly didn't want to fall here.

Right away, Xu Fan began to treat Han Dongxu's wounds.

The external injuries on his body had already been properly dealt with by the doctors who had performed surgery earlier, and there wasn't too much of a problem.

But what truly threatened his life was the Inner Strength currently ravaging his life functions from within.

Through the golden light in his right eye, Xu Fan observed the residual Inner Strength within the body, his brow tightly furrowed.

The person who planted such a domineering Inner Strength inside Han Dongxu's body, just what kind of Cultivation Level did they possess…

Xu Fan didn't dare imagine that the person was likely to be at least at the Peak of the Innate Realm.

Such strength was usually possessed by hidden experts who secluded themselves from the world.

The Ye Family was just an ordinary secular family with some economic strength; how could they possibly invite such a powerful expert to help them?

Shaking his head, Xu Fan knew he couldn't figure out this puzzle right now and focused his attention on treating Han Dongxu with acupuncture.

Applying the completed medicine to Han Dongxu's body, Xu Fan took the Silver Needle handed to him by Gongsun Qin and began to stab the major acupoints on his body.

Tai Su Nine Needles technique?

Gongsun Qin, who also had studied Medical Skills, was surprised to see Xu Fan employing this acupuncture technique.

How did he know the Tai Su Nine Needles?

Logically, that technique should have only been passed down from her master to herself...

"Are you okay?"

While she was pondering quietly, she suddenly noticed Xu Fan's complexion turn extremely pale, and she quickly rushed to support him.

"It's nothing…" Xu Fan steadied himself and waved his hand dismissively.

The Inner Strength clinging around Han Dongxu's acupoints was more tyrannical than he had anticipated.

If his Inner Strength hadn't been solid, he might have been injured by the backlash.

Thinking about the purpose behind the person who had planted the Inner Strength in Han Dongxu, Xu Fan couldn't help but sneer.

If he didn't have the Jiuyang Warm Jade to assist, he would have to expend his Inner Strength every day just to keep Han Dongxu alive and stabilize his injuries.

Not only would he not be able to fully heal Han Dongxu's injuries, but, over time, he would also become a cripple himself.

He couldn't just abandon Han Dongxu, and if he didn't possess these four pieces of Jiuyang Warm Jade, probably without the enemy lifting a finger himself, just this strand of Inner Strength would have been enough to cause him untold suffering.

Recalling Ye Chongshan's smug expression earlier about wanting to toy with him slowly, Xu Fan allowed himself a wry smile.

With such a powerful expert backing him, Ye Chongshan truly did have the grounds to be so arrogant.

Seeing Han Dongxu's complexion grow increasingly worse as he lay on the bed, Xu Fan took a deep breath and crushed the Jiuyang Warm Jade in his hand!

He then began to transfer the Spiritual Power within the Warm Jade into Han Dongxu's body using the technique of Tai Su Nine Needles…
