CHAPTER 920: CHAPTER 896: SAVING A LIFE

"Nine Needles Across the Points! You’re from the Wu family!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao had great respect for people with skills.

Although the boy’s upbringing was nothing to brag about, his skills were top-notch.

This was something she couldn’t deny.

"My name is Wu Yang, the inheritor of the Wu family’s Nine Needles Across the Points. I came specifically to challenge you. I want to see how powerful the heir of the Medicine God is to make my grandpa side with you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao chuckled.

Wu Yang’s tone was like a child who couldn’t taste the candy, full of envy and jealousy.

She indeed believed there was no hatred without a reason.

Turns out this was where it stemmed from.

"Wu Yang, please guide me. Your Nine Needles Across the Points are truly amazing."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was also witnessing such a remarkable acupuncture skill for the first time.

She studied Western medicine, and she had only heard of certain old Chinese doctors’ acupuncture skills being excellent, curing diseases and saving lives, but she really hadn’t studied Chinese medicine and naturally didn’t understand it.

This was a chance to experience the wonders of Chinese medicine.

Treating diseases and saving lives, people don’t use surgery.

After Fan Jinkui was hit by a car, his internal organs bled severely. Normally, if an ambulance took him to the hospital, he would have been rushed into the operating room for surgery.

But now, people solved it directly with nine silver needles, and it’s obvious Fan Jinkui not only stopped bleeding but his complexion was gradually recovering, proving the internal injuries were healing.

In other words, after the acupuncture with the golden needles, it didn’t just stop the bleeding but also had a healing effect.

Of course, Wu Yang also stuffed a pill into Fan Jinkui’s mouth at the end, which surely contributed to the recovery.

In West City, the magic of Chinese medicine Jiang Xiaoxiao had already witnessed.

She utilized the effect of peaches in her space to improve the quality of medicines.

It merely elevated the level of medicine. Truly speaking, if West City’s pharmacists crafted tenth-level elixirs and her own tenth-level elixirs had the same effect, she only used a cheating method to skip the failure process of levels six, seven, eight and went straight to level ten.

Even to a super grade.

But the effect was the same, which meant the pills here really could achieve immediate results.

Compared to those Western medicines in Western medicine, the medicines here truly had many magical effects.

Of course, she had seen many Chinese medicines outside, but their effects were inferior to those here in West City.

Grandma had introduced this to her because West City’s medicines relied on Kunlun Mountain.

Medicines made from herbs gathered near the Kunlun Mountain Range would be of higher grade and better effect.

This was also why the inheritors of Ancient Medicine never left West City; leaving West City, the effectiveness of outside medicines greatly diminishes, and the crafted elixirs damage their reputation, so they’d rather suffer here.

Also, they stay in West City because it’s their root.

Now, Jiang Xiaoxiao had once again witnessed the wonders of Chinese medicine.

It seemed that she still had much to learn.

Wu Yang saw that Jiang Xiaoxiao sincerely admired him and was delighted, "Of course, our Wu family’s Nine Needles Across the Points are unique in West City. Who can surpass our acupuncture?"

If Nine Needles Across the Points couldn’t save a life, even a deity would struggle to save it."

This is their signature.

But as they spoke, Fan Jinkui had already opened his eyes.

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao at that moment, Fan Jinkui quickly scrambled up and knelt straight before Jiang Xiaoxiao.

"Aunt Hao, I specifically came to find you. My brother-in-law has passed away. He went peacefully with the money you gave, and didn’t suffer in the end. I’ve been busy with my brother-in-law’s funeral lately.

Now I have no worries, I beg you to take me in. I will reform and live a proper life to repay your life-saving grace."

He bowed heavily three times.

Blood appeared on his forehead.

Wu Yang sneered, "Hey, do you even have any sense of gratitude? Clearly, I just saved your life, and you turn around treating her as your savior. Damn, that’s ungrateful. Had I known, I wouldn’t have saved you, wasting my Nine Needles Across the Points for nothing."

Fan Jinkui got up and bowed to Wu Yang.

"Thank you for saving me. Generally, a life-saving grace should be repaid abundantly. But Aunt Hao saved me first, not just once, but several times. To me, my brother-in-law, and our whole family, she has given great favors. I already vowed to repay her, and for my benefactor, I can only repay in the next life."

Wu Yang was puzzled, "She saved you multiple times? Tell me how she saved you."

Fan Jinkui explained the whole story, and Wu Yang was sincerely respectful toward Jiang Xiaoxiao.

He simply saved a person’s life, but the person before him, Hao Ruxue, saved this person’s soul.

Turning a person’s character around is entirely different from saving a life.

Anyone, good or bad, can be saved as long as you put your mind to it.

But wanting to change someone’s thoughts, change their character, can’t be simply done with medicine.

It has to make the other willingly want to change.

"I didn’t expect you could do it!"

The old man shouted from the car, "Alright, stop dawdling. Since you’ve saved him, hurry and get in the car. If you delay, you won’t like what’s coming."

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Fan Jinkui, "If you really want to reform, go to Hao Zhigang. He will arrange it. Start living a proper life, as long as you have the heart to do it, it’s never too late."

Although she didn’t know why Grandma had passed away, she could tell by Fan Jinkui’s demeanor. These past few months, Fan Jinkui must have gone through a lot, and he was willing to reform and live anew.

In that case, she would surely give him a chance, arrange a job to let him learn skills and integrate into society, which wasn’t difficult at all.

Fan Jinkui left after expressing endless gratitude.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others got back in the car.

"I really didn’t expect both of you to be so impressive. One knows Nine Needles Across the Points, and the other is the famous heir of the Medicine God. It seems I’m the least skilled, knowing and understanding nothing. I ask you two to look after this newbie in the future."

Bai Xiao gazed at the two, eyes full of stars. Initially, he felt the man in the front seat was arrogant, so haughty that one was tempted to punch him twice. But now he understood that the man knew the amazingly difficult Nine Needles Across the Points and was the Wu family’s heir.

Just because of this, he had a reason to be proud. Even if he were a bit more arrogant, no one could say anything.

Didn’t someone just pass out from being hit, and the Nine Needles Across the Points saved the person just like that?

Got back up full of life and vigor, such skills must take years to learn.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Wu Yang exchanged smiles.

This girl is truly simple.
