Chapter 224: Li Tian’s Return, Seeking to Control the Li Family
“Late-stage Alzheimer’s is indeed difficult to treat, but it’s not impossible.” Jiang Che frowned as he examined Li Huakong, then spoke calmly.
After learning the “Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles,” theoretically, he was confident he could cure the old man, but he had never treated anyone before, so he wasn’t entirely sure.
“Boss, can you really cure him?” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Li Chengfeng’s face was filled with astonishment.
He had thought Jiang Che was just talking nonsense, but now, seeing his confident demeanor, it seemed like he might actually have some skill. He was puzzled. When had Jiang Che secretly learned medicine?
“Of course. Uncle Li, let me try. Maybe I can really cure the old man.” Jiang Che turned to look at Li Zhiyong, appearing very confident.
Although he wasn’t entirely sure, the old man was in such a condition that trying was better than waiting for death.
“This…” Li Zhiyong looked hesitant, unsure whether to believe Jiang Che.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and made a decision, “Then I’ll trouble you, Young Master Jiang.”
Given the current situation, he had no other choice. It was better to try than to do nothing. He couldn’t just watch his father slowly wait for death.
Jiang Che said no more. He walked over to Li Huakong and took out a set of silver needles from the system space. These were sterilized needles he had prepared before coming.
Jiang Che skillfully inserted the needles into various acupoints on Li Huakong’s body. With the support of his inner strength, his movements were fluid and precise, leaving the onlookers dazzled.
After about ten minutes, Jiang Che removed all the needles from Li Huakong and exhaled deeply. Li Huakong had fallen back into a coma, but his complexion was much better than before.
“Ding, the host has cured Li Huakong’s Alzheimer’s in advance, changing the storyline, and is rewarded with 5000 villain points.” Listening to the system prompt in his mind, Jiang Che silently looked at Li Huakong.
Although he hasn’t completely cured the old man, he has significantly improved his condition. When Li Huakong woke up, he would regain his clarity. With further treatment using traditional Chinese medicine, his health would steadily improve.
“Young Master Jiang, is my father cured?” Li Zhiyong approached, looking at Li Huakong’s peaceful sleeping face, unsure. He clearly noticed his father’s improvement. His complexion was much better, not as lethargic as before.
But he was still confused. Could this problem that many so-called miracle doctors couldn’t solve be cured by Jiang Che?
“He’s cured. Continued treatment with traditional Chinese medicine will suffice.” Jiang Che smiled. Although it was his first time treating someone, the result was good.
“Thank you, Young Master Jiang.” Li Zhiyong’s voice was filled with excitement as he was about to kneel before Jiang Che.
He was a filial son who had been tormented by his father’s condition for over a year, wishing he could suffer in his father’s place.
Jiang Che quickly stopped him. He couldn’t accept such a gesture. Helping Li Huakong was just a convenient act for him, not something significant.
After all, he had his own reasons, not purely because of his relationship with Li Chengfeng.
“Uncle Li, you’re too kind. This is my duty.”
“Young Master Jiang, you have done a great service to my family. If you ever need anything from the Li family, please don’t hesitate to ask.”
“I, Li Zhiyong, will do my utmost!” Li Zhiyong spoke sincerely, his tone earnest.
Jiang Che had brought his father back from the brink of death, and this great kindness was not something easily repaid.
“I’ll have someone write a prescription. You can get the medicine and give it to the old man three times a day. He should be able to get out of bed in a month.” Jiang Che shook his head, not delving too deeply into the matter.
He took a piece of paper from the table and quickly wrote down a prescription, handing it to Li Zhiyong. Li Zhiyong glanced at the paper and, without saying much, left to find a servant to get the medicine as Jiang Che instructed.
Now, he trusted Jiang Che completely and had no doubts.
“Boss, when did you learn medicine? Why didn’t I know?” After Li Zhiyong left, Li Chengfeng asked Jiang Che curiously.
He knew that Jiang Che had studied finance in university, which had nothing to do with medicine. But why did Jiang Che know medical skills? Could it be ancestral?
With this thought in mind, Li Chengfeng quickly shook his head, thinking he was being foolish. He knew that Jiang Che’s grandfather, Jiang Jingshan, was a prominent figure who knew nothing about medicine.
“What, do you want to learn?” Jiang Che asked playfully, looking at Li Chengfeng with a teasing gaze.
“Hehe… I’ll pass.” Li Chengfeng shook his head and laughed awkwardly. He knew his own limits and understood that he wasn’t suited for this.
Even if Jiang Che were willing to teach him everything, he might not be able to learn.
At Linjiang City Train Station.
A young man with an ordinary appearance walked out of the waiting hall. Although his clothes were simple, he exuded a calm and steady aura. This was Li Tian, who had just come down from the mountain.
After breaking through to the Unity of Man and Heaven stage, his master finally agreed to let him leave the mountain. This time, he had returned to avenge his father!
Six years ago, his father was pursued by enemies. The Li family, to protect themselves handed over his father! Although he understood that the Li family had no choice, as they couldn’t protect his father from powerful enemies, he couldn’t swallow this resentment.
This time, he not only intended to take control of the Li family from Li Huakong, but he also planned to dethrone his uncle’s family, who had abandoned his father, and personally destroy those enemies to avenge his father!
Li Tian took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and hailed a taxi to head straight to the Li family villa.
