Just when everyone present was focused and watching the video in surprise, the big screen suddenly went black.

Right after that, the audience saw an elderly man turn off the power.

Seeing this, the crowd immediately became chaotic.

"What's going on? Is the descendant of He's Bone Setting challenging Shen Qiang to a bone setting under the instructions of Life-extending Hall?"

"Damn! No wonder Shen Qiang specifically targeted Life-extending Hall's signboard!"

"I knew it! Someone with such superb acupuncture skills, how could he want to smash Life-extending Hall's signboard for no reason?"

In the noisy commotion of the crowd.

Xu Nan, with her eyebrows tightly furrowed, took a step forward and said sternly, "This matter isn't clear, don't think that just cutting off the power will end it. Now I ask you, will you reconnect the power or not? You from the Life-extending Hall said before, that everything should be reasoned."

"A vengeance for killing a son, no one else can intervene."

"Now that you from the Life-extending Hall have cut the power, does it mean you admit that this matter was indeed done by you? If so, as Shen Qiang's good friend, I must seek justice for Shen Qiang."

Hearing this, the eyes of those in the audience looking at the Hall Master of Life-extending Hall also turned a bit hostile.

"Hall Master Qi, if Life-extending Hall is really above board, what do you have to hide?"

"Exactly, the words of a dead man, let us see what harm can there be?"

Seeing the persistent pressure from the crowd.

After a moment of silence, the Hall Master of Life-extending Hall gritted his teeth and said, "Reconnect the power, let them watch."

With the power restored.

The screen reappeared, and the video's memory function connected exactly to the previous segment.

In the video, He Fatty, with a somewhat bitter smile, then said, "Shen Qiang is somewhat arrogant, a bit crazy, but I can tell, he is not a bad person. If I end up dead, and he survives, you don't need to seek revenge on him."

"Because it is now I who will harm him."

He Fatty sighed and then said, "Because I have already accepted benefits from Life-extending Hall, a retail space at the edge of Second Ring worth about ten million, plus three million in cash. Moreover, if everything goes smoothly, Life-extending Hall promised to persuade at least eight or more medical families to agree to let He's Bone Setting come here."

"This is a temptation I cannot refuse."

"You always say, be generous, do not take advantage of anyone, because greed for petty gains leads to great losses."

"Ever since I can remember, you have always told me that I must shoulder the responsibility to revitalize He's Bone Setting. At that time, I also believed that was what I should do and that I could indeed achieve it through hard work."

"But the reality has changed."

"There are many orthopedic hospitals, and Pang's Bone Setting has monopolized over eighty percent of orthopedic patients. You always said it's because Pang's techniques are better than ours, and as long as I properly cultivate and accumulate enough experience, we could win back."

"But the reality is, Pang's Bone Setting has kept up with the times; they have the most advanced equipment, recruited a lot of outstanding orthopedic surgeons, and they operate whenever possible, creating conditions to operate when not."

"Because that's how they make money!"

"No matter the ailment, first administer ten shots of immunoglobulin. That itself is 5,500 yuan. Surgery, hospital stays, medicine...for a series of treatments, which patient wouldn't end up spending thirty or forty thousand?"

"But you?"

"Still upholding the Family's tradition, absolutely not performing surgery unless it's absolutely necessary, absolutely not taking risks with conservative treatment. For fractures, in Pong's, they'd operate, insert steel plates, then operate again to remove the plates—proper surgeries, all set. With you, a squeeze, a splint, some plaster, and then home to rest, maybe add some anti-inflammatories, a few hundred yuan and done."

"You think you're saving patients a lot of money, reducing a lot of unnecessary pain, but actually, you're wrong. People nowadays are so delicate. They don't approve of your treatments; they think surgery should be the treatment. Your treatment method is just perfunctory, a disrespect to them!"

"So give it up. You think you're holding onto tradition, the Family's glory, but this era doesn't need it."

Hearing these words, Shen Qiang sighed.

Meanwhile, in the video, He Fatso said solemnly, "I know, hearing me say this, you must want to curse me, but this is the reality. Our clinic is outdated. Today this breaks, tomorrow that breaks, and there's no money to upgrade."

"To maintain the normal operation of the clinic, you even sold Grandpa's house."

"You always tell me, we are a Family, we are Cultivators, we have heavy responsibilities, we mustn't commit injustices, we mustn't engage in unscrupulous practices."

"How ridiculous."

"If Power can't be used to help oneself achieve a better life, then what good is having that Power?"

"See? Life-extending Hall, a well-known clinic feeling threatened, immediately thinks of hiring someone to kill the competition. What moral integrity? In the face of interests, it's just a pile of crap!"

"Survival of the fittest!"

"This is the real way of survival in the Cultivation World!"

In the video, He Fatso said, "Dad, do you know? In order to revive He's Bone Setting, I made a lot of effort and made many friends from medical Families. I realized they are completely different from us. When I had a birthday as a kid, you'd spend a few yuan on a small cake, boil a couple of eggs."

"But them? They'd charter a plane, fly to an island for a vacation, on a whim call over a dozen beauties, just play around, splurging wherever they go."

"In college, you taught me to study hard and live frugally. But them? They couldn't understand why waste time working part-time, why not spend it doing something they're interested in."

"You'd definitely say I'm unfilial, degenerate, restless, vain." Glaring into the camera, He Fatso said, "But why can they pursue their dreams, and I can't?"

"Because we don't have money!"

With a stern face, He Fatso continued, "I don't want to continue this way anymore. Around ten million for storefronts, three million in cash, convincing eight medical Families to allow He's Bone Setting to come here."

"This is the price set by the Life-extending Hall, and I accepted it because, according to the life plan you set for me, I wouldn't earn this money even if I never ate or drank for fifty years."

"I've already entrusted the sale of the storefront to a lawyer, as soon as something happens to me, it'll go directly to you and Mom."

"That three million in cash, go and buy back Grandpa's house with it."

Glancing at his watch, He Fatso said, "It's about time now, so that's it. I'm going to act now, if all goes well, Shen Qiang is sure to die. But given that people from Life-extending Hall could use this method, targeting Shen Qiang, killing to cover up isn't out of the question."

"So, if I don't come back, this video will be sent to you in twenty-four hours. If I do make it back alive, then no one will ever know about this."

"Although you're stubborn, rigid, utterly inflexible, like a tyrant at home, I want to say, if there is a next life, I'd still want to be your son."
