“What?”
“You know how!?”
Everyone’s minds crashed on the spot!
Disbelief filled their faces!
The Good-for-Nothing once acknowledged by the Xie Family as their live-in son-in-law was now claiming to know the Huayang Nine Needles??
Was this some damn dung beetle rolling a dung ball while Pretending to Be a little jeep!?
Even Xie Ruoxin, who had fallen into despair, raised her head and looked quietly at Lin Feng!
Did Lin Feng know it? Or was he bragging??
“Former brother-in-law, this isn’t the time to joke around.” Xie Ruoxue sobbed, sniffling.
“What joke!?”
“I, Lin Feng, have never joked around in my life!”
Lin Feng smiled faintly, confidence shining in his deep eyes!
He had only just obtained the Huayang Nine Needles, and they were already useful!
He had drawn them from a Treasure Chest, too. Perhaps he would have an endless supply of such treasures in the future!
Given enough time, Lin Feng believed the entire world would Submit beneath his feet!
With the Myriad Realms Impostor System, he might even encounter Pangu and Nuwa in the future. If he happened to make a little clay figurine with Nuwa, wouldn’t that be a carefree life?
Everyone present wore expressions of half-belief and half-doubt; some did not believe him at all!
“Are you putting on a show to attract attention!?”
Xie Ding barked, his eyes full of disdain. “Good-for-nothing, we haven’t settled our score yet, and you dare make such an outrageous claim! Is this an occasion for a Good-for-Nothing like you to joke around? Kneel and apologize to the Old Madam!”
“He has a point. Lin Feng, my Xie Family just cast you out, and you’re a poor, pathetic loser. How could you know it!? This is grossly disrespectful!”
“Are you making fun of us? A Good-for-Nothing like you is asking for a beating!”
The younger members of the Xie Family all began attacking Lin Feng!
Elder Luo also wore a dark expression. “Young man, do you know that the Huayang Nine Needles is a lost Acupuncture Technique? The Traditional Chinese Medicine world praises it as a technique capable of seizing the mysteries of Heaven and Earth. Yet you dare act so ignorantly here. This Old Man has studied Acupuncture and Moxibustion for over seventy years, and I know only the First Three Needles. Do not make claims you cannot live up to!”
Faced with everyone’s mockery and provocation,
Lin Feng smiled faintly. “Now you will witness a miracle!”
As soon as his voice fell!
Nine Silver Needles appeared in Lin Feng’s hand!
Elder Luo examined them and saw that the nine Silver Needles differed greatly from ordinary needles. Their tips shimmered with unusual colors and bore fine carvings. Though slender, they resembled a dragon and phoenix bringing prosperity, and a current of qi seemed to flow from their tips!
“Hahaha, Good-for-Nothing, you take nine broken needles and claim they’re the Huayang Nine Needles? I could claim to know them too!”
Xie Ding burst into mocking laughter, his face full of disdain. If the Old Madam had not been critically ill, he would have slapped Lin Feng in front of everyone and taught him why flowers were so brilliantly red!
“They’re the legendary Huayang Nine Needles!”
Elder Luo’s expression changed. His voice trembled as he widened his eyes and said:
“They really are the legendary Huayang Nine Needles! I saw these nine Silver Needles in an ancient medical fragment. To perform the true Huayang Nine Needles, one must also possess the specialized Nine-Palace Revitalizing Needles. Only then can one’s medical skill reach the pinnacle, seize the mysteries of Heaven and Earth, and extend a life!”
“Little brother, how did you obtain these Nine-Palace Revitalizing Needles!?”
Elder Luo was too agitated to speak coherently. He knew the First Three Needles of the Huayang Acupuncture Technique because he had seen them in a fragmentary manuscript. Unfortunately, that manuscript contained only the First Three Needles.
Each needle contained the profound mysteries of Heaven and Earth. The principles were deep and enigmatic. Although he had considerable expertise in Traditional Chinese Medicine, he had spent nearly twenty years mastering the First Three Needles. He had even crafted his Silver Needles as replicas of the Revitalizing Needles shown in that fragmentary manuscript!
Now Lin Feng had produced the genuine Nine-Palace Revitalizing Needles. How could Elder Luo not be excited?
At this moment, the smile on Xie Ding’s face had already stiffened.
Everyone else stared in stunned disbelief, and the room erupted in an uproar!
Some people even swallowed hard in astonishment.
“Lin Feng, since you have these needles, hurry and save the Old Madam. As for what happened earlier, our Xie Family can let bygones be bygones!”
“That’s right, good-for-nothing, hurry over and save grandmother!” Xie Ding came to his senses and shouted in a commanding tone.
