"Liu Zixuan hadn't even reached the front when Huang Youcai, in a pleading manner, urgently said, "Doctor Liu, save me!"

Actually, the moment they saw Liu Zixuan, the expressions of the few doctors nearby were very complex.

This complexity was mostly filled with disdain and contempt.

Because in their eyes, Liu Zixuan was just a young lad in his early twenties, nowhere near a legendary doctor like Huang Youcai claimed.

"Do you believe what I said now?" Liu Zixuan raised his brows and smiled.

Huang Youcai wore a regretful expression, nodding vigorously: "I believe, I've always believed in you, please save me, went to the hospital for a check-up, it's kidney cancer!"

Pfft!

Liu Zixuan couldn't hold back his laughter, kidney cancer my foot, it's just severe kidney deficiency, alright.

"I remember I told you before that if you came to me this time, the consultation fee would be four million." Liu Zixuan laughed.

Four million...

Upon hearing this terrifying number, Huang Youcai and the doctors beside him twitched at the corners of their mouths, all full of shock!

Four million, that's enough to buy a kidney!

"What kind of doctor are you, charging such an outrageous amount?" A somewhat older doctor questioned with a frown. He was skeptical of Liu Zixuan, thinking he might be a quack from Jianghu, a scammer!

"National Doctor." Liu Zixuan replied.

"National Doctor? You're so young, what illnesses can you treat?"

The doctor snorted disdainfully and turned to Huang Youcai, "Mr. Huang, you can't be fooled by this guy, you know there are many scammer barefoot doctors nowadays. Not only will they not cure your illness, but they'll also demand a huge sum, eventually leaving you broke and in worse health!"

Huang Youcai frowned, reprimanding, "If you can, why don't you treat him?"

The doctor turned red-faced. The reason Huang Youcai had them send him to Lingxiu Village was precisely that the hospital couldn't treat him.

Somewhat falteringly, he said, "Mr. Huang, actually we could also try conservative treatment, and then, when you're a bit better, go to a bigger hospital for a check-up. That's certainly better than being scammed by this charlatan."

"Alright, then you can have them send you for conservative treatment, or to a big hospital. But let me tell you, next time if you come begging me, it won't be four million, but forty million!"

Liu Zixuan wasn't concerned when he heard this. He knew Huang Youcai's condition wasn't so-called kidney cancer, but it wasn't normal kidney deficiency either. Honestly, there weren't more than a handful of people in the entire Star Sea who could treat such an illness.

The reason was simple; currently, ghost doctors were rampant, and national doctors were in decline.

Ghost doctors always treated symptoms rather than the root cause. Huang Youcai's kidney deficiency was unsolvable by ghost doctors; even medical instruments would misdiagnose it.

Huang Youcai pondered for a moment and said to Liu Zixuan, "Doctor Liu, could the fee be any less? Four million is really too much."

"Not a penny less!"

"How about this: I'll fix the village roads, provide the village with a million in working capital for your circulation, and build you a luxurious clinic in the village. I'll also introduce many friends for you to treat in the future." Huang Youcai said earnestly.

Liu Zixuan considered for a moment; this was quite nice actually.

This guy couldn't produce four million in cash, but if he could bring in more business, it would be much better than four million.

You must know, most of the people Huang Youcai knew were rich merchants. If they came for treatment, wouldn't it mean they could be scammed heavily?

Smiling and nodding, "Deal."

"Then please go ahead and treat me." Huang Youcai said eagerly.

Just as Liu Zixuan was about to have him pushed into the village club, the doctor blocked them again, "Mr. Huang, you need to be cautious."

"I'm being cautious enough already."

Huang Youcai cursed in annoyance, "If you're capable, you do it; I'll give you a million. If not, shut the hell up!"

"Are you certain he can do it?"

This doctor was not someone with a benevolent heart, but he had his eyes on Huang Youcai's money. If Liu Zixuan could demand over a million, and Huang Youcai agreed,

Then if he could secure this patient himself, he could at least get a few hundred thousand as a benefit fee. This would be more than his salary for several years.

The doctor's question left Huang Youcai stunned for a moment. Liu Zixuan had diagnosed accurately beforehand, but he didn't know if Liu Zixuan could cure him.

Immediately, he frowned and asked, "Do you have a better method?"

"I can see you highly value this Doctor Liu; you might as well let him try first since you came all the way. But if he proves ineffective, follow me back to the hospital, and I'll invite my senior from the city hospital to see you!"" the doctor said.

His words carried a tinge of smugness, as though he was telling Liu Zixuan, "It's not that I'm not giving you a chance, but I'm just worried you'll waste it!"

Huang Youcai thought this was a good idea. He agreed.

Liu Zixuan shrugged, "Then move him into the house."

A few nurses pushed the mobile hospital bed and placed Huang Youcai in a room within the village club, all eyes on Liu Zixuan.

"Doctor Liu, aren't you going to prepare?" the doctor asked mockingly.

"Prepare for what?"

"Doesn't curing a disease require equipment and medicine?"

"The equipment is this!" Liu Zixuan pulled a silver needle from his pocket, the first needle of the previously mentioned Profound Spirit, Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles.

Then he took out a few ordinary silver needles and placed them beside the hospital bed.

Then he turned to Liu Ruyan, "Go to Sister Lian's house and bring me the herbs I gathered yesterday."

"Alright." Liu Ruyan nodded slightly and left.

"Just these?" the doctor frowned, increasingly feeling Liu Zixuan was a fraud.

Liu Zixuan raised his brow, "That's right, just these!"

"Isn't this nonsense; Mr. Huang is diagnosed with kidney cancer. This kind of illness requires anti-cancer drugs and surgical instruments. Do you think two silver needles alone can treat it?"

"Who said it's kidney cancer?" Liu Zixuan retorted.

"Instrument diagnosis scarcely wrong, shadow in the kidney, and cancer cells detected." the doctor said confidently.

"Are instrument misdiagnoses that rare?"

Liu Zixuan smirked playfully, adding, "If you can treat it, go ahead. If you can't, don't chatter. I hate flies; if you keep jabbering, I won't hesitate to swat you first!"

"You!"

The doctor was momentarily speechless, face flushing, "Watch how you treat; I'm telling you, Mr. Huang is a significant figure in the town; if you ruin his treatment, brace yourself for the consequences!"

Liu Zixuan didn't respond but smiled at the two nurses beside him, "Ladies, could you do me a favor?"

"What kind?" the female nurse asked.

"Go next door and fetch me one of your sanitary pads for a moment."
