Watching Li Rou, who was originally so weak that speaking was difficult, suddenly becoming full of vitality and even sitting up directly from the bed, the pallor on her cheeks vanished without a trace.
Ronghua and Zhang Qingrui, who were waiting to see the joke, widened their eyes in surprise.
As for Li Xincheng and Li Junyu, after a brief shock, they were instantly overjoyed.
"Rou’er, how do you feel now?!"
Li Xincheng looked at Li Rou with a face full of expectation.
"Father, I feel better than ever! Even better than before I got sick!"
Li Rou’s cheeks were full of a joyful smile.
From being extremely weak to full of life, anyone would be thrilled.
Upon hearing this, Li Xincheng couldn’t help but feel ecstatic.
He was happier than ever.
Li Jiayan on the side showed a face full of different emotions.
His gaze naturally turned to Qin Chen.
Really? Did he just cure her like that?
Zhang Qingrui was full of disbelief.
"Thank you, Doctor Qin, for saving Little Rou!!!"
Li Junyu looked at Qin Chen with complete gratitude.
He was very relieved in his heart that he didn’t judge by appearance and called Qin Chen to the Li Family.
"Thank you, Young Master Qin!"
Li Rou also slightly bowed to Qin Chen in thanks.
In a sense, Qin Chen had saved her life.
Moreover, at Li Rou’s age, she was just beginning to awaken to love.
Therefore, there seemed to be some other meaning embedded in her address of ’Young Master Qin.’
"Thank you, Doctor Qin!!"
"From now on, Doctor Qin will be an honored guest of the Li Family forever!!!"
Li Xincheng hurriedly expressed his thanks, and even Li Jiayan, who had been questioning Qin Chen, expressed his gratitude.
No matter how much he looked down on Qin Chen, doubted him, or even wanted to send him away before.
But Qin Chen had proven himself with his actions.
This made Ronghua and Zhang Qingrui beside him feel somewhat embarrassed.
Qin Chen had completely stolen the spotlight!
They became mere foils.
"No need to thank." Qin Chen waved his hand.
"Even if she’s cured, what does it prove?"
"My master could have cured her too!!!"
Zhang Qingrui gritted his teeth and shouted defiantly.
Upon hearing this, Qin Chen looked at Zhang Qingrui.
"I just said earlier."
"If you treated her according to your master’s method, not only would Li Rou not be cured, but her time of death would be accelerated!"
"Your master’s method cannot cure Li Rou’s illness!"
Qin Chen said calmly.
"Don’t think that just because you cured Li Rou, you can talk nonsense! Speak with evidence. You say if my master intervened, it would accelerate Li Rou’s death, what evidence do you have?"
Zhang Qingrui said angrily.
In his mind, Ronghua was omnipotent, how could he possibly misdiagnose? How could he accelerate a patient’s time of death? Simply absurd!
"Evidence?" Qin Chen smiled.
"If that’s the case, let me convince you."
Qin Chen’s gaze turned to Ronghua.
"Master Ronghua, you mentioned that Li Rou was afflicted with Yin Cold Poison."
"To be honest, I also initially thought Li Rou was afflicted by Yin Cold Poison."
"Moreover, Yin Cold Poison does indeed resemble Li Rou’s symptoms."
"The head and feet feel icy and painful."
"However, you did not realize that the chill in Li Rou’s head and feet contained a trace of Netherworld Energy!!!" said Qin Chen.
Upon hearing this, Ronghua’s eyes immediately focused.
Obviously, Qin Chen was correct; he hadn’t discovered the trace of Netherworld Energy behind the chill.
"From this, it can be deduced that what Li Rou is suffering from is neither Cold Poison nor Yin Cold Poison, but a rarer and lesser-known poison called... Netherworld Poison!!!"
Upon hearing this term, Ronghua’s face was full of bewilderment.
As for others, there was no need to mention.
Clearly, no one knew what ’Netherworld Poison’ was.
"What Netherworld Poison? I’ve never heard of it. I think you just made it up!"
Zhang Qingrui said with a cold smile.
"No rush." Qin Chen smiled calmly.
"Netherworld Poison is a very rare poison, most commonly found in a plant known as Black Green Netherworld Grass."
"Li Rou, try to recall if you’ve ever seen a grass that’s black-green, resembling normal grass, but unlike ordinary grass, it has a faint misty aura?"
Qin Chen looked at Li Rou with a smile.
Li Rou immediately began to ponder carefully.
Suddenly, her complexion changed!
"I remember! I’ve seen it! And there were quite a few. I remember there was a patch of it, and at the time, I thought it was ordinary grass, so I didn’t pay any attention and walked right over it!"
"But, I wasn’t the only one who walked over those Black Green Netherworld Grass!"
"Why are the others fine?"
Li Rou furrowed her brows.
She wasn’t the only one who went to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to hunt demon beasts.
Zhang Qingrui, upon hearing this, seemed to have caught a fatal point.
"Care to explain?" Zhang Qingrui asked coldly, looking at Qin Chen.
Qin Chen smiled indifferently, then said to Li Rou, "Li Rou, sorry if I offend."
Li Rou was stunned; before she could say anything, Qin Chen lifted her white robe.
Exposing a snippet of her calf.
"What are you doing?!"
Seeing Qin Chen directly start to pull at Li Rou’s garments, Li Jiayan’s eyes widened.
Li Rou’s face turned crimson immediately.
Doing this in broad daylight indeed felt somewhat inappropriate.
"Look," Qin Chen pointed to the segment of Li Rou’s calf that was exposed.
"A wound!" Li Junyu spoke first.
Although the wound was small, and almost healed, it was still clearly visible.
"Precisely, that wound."
"If I’m not mistaken, it was because of Li Rou’s wound on her calf at the time, that the poison from Black Green Netherworld Grass entered the calf and eventually spread throughout her body."
"Considering the spreading speed of Netherworld Poison and Li Rou’s physical condition."
"The onset of Netherworld Poison should have occurred two hours after Li Rou was exposed to the Black Green Netherworld Grass."
"It seems, Rou’er returned from the Demon Beast Mountain Range and suddenly fell seriously ill indeed... two hours!!!"
Li Xincheng’s expression was shocked.
The whole room was once again silent!
The cause of the illness! The timing was all accurate!
This is simply... too miraculous!
Unbelievably miraculous!!!
Had Li Rou not been unfamiliar with Qin Chen, Li Xincheng might have thought they had coordinated beforehand.
"Then how can you prove that according to my master’s method, it would accelerate Li Rou’s death?" Zhang Qingrui gritted his teeth.
Even at this point, he remained unconvinced!
