Upon hearing the news, Shen Qiang instantly sat up, answered with a yes, and immediately took out the tri-color Earth Spirit Embryo from his Storage Ring.

The tri-color Earth Spirit Embryo was faintly emitting a strange fragrance, yet it was clear that there was still a gap from its true maturation period—when the exotic fragrance would be intense.

This made Shen Qiang frown.

But now was obviously not the time to ponder this issue.

So, Shen Qiang carelessly stuffed the tri-color Earth Spirit Embryo into his jacket pocket, dressed up quickly, and rushed toward the Bai Family ancestral home at lightning speed.

As soon as he entered the ancestral home,

Shen Qiang immediately saw Bai Jiao, her beautiful eyes swollen red, crying her heart out, and Bai Shiyi with a somber expression like still water.

"Shen Qiang, you must come and see my grandmother!"

Upon seeing Shen Qiang, Bai Jiao burst into tears with a 'waah'.

Shen Qiang hastened to the old lady's bedside in three steps as two, and after a brief examination, he was vastly shocked to find that the Bai family matriarch was aging more rapidly than he had expected.

"There's nothing to be done," said the Divine Doctor Hu from the side. "Chairman Bai, we've done all we could. The old lady probably cannot get over this hurdle, so please see if there's anyone she would like to meet with last, and notify them."

Upon hearing these words, Bai Jiao burst into even more tears.

In the courtyard, a group of people suddenly dropped to their knees.

But at that moment,

Shen Qiang, with his brows tightly knitted together, said sternly, "It's too early to be crying now."

As he spoke,

Under the astonished gazes of everyone present, Shen Qiang waved his hand.

In just an instant, nearly a hundred Silver Needles had covered the old lady's body. Almost before the surrounding crowd could react, Shen Qiang flicked his finger, and the needles buzzed as they trembled lightly, subsequently blooming like plum blossoms after an overnight spring breeze.

"Flowers Opening Nine Branches!" Divine Doctor Hu, standing nearby, watched in horror.

At the same time, everyone in the room was also shocked by the scene unfolding before them.

"Spiritual Energy is surging!" Bai Shiyi's eyes lit up. "I can feel it, that nature's spiritual energy is being drawn into the body by these needles. With this kind of nourishment from spiritual energy, my mother shouldn't have any problems."

"Great fortune to the matriarch!" Almost simultaneously, a man looking like a butler dropped to his knees before the old lady's bed.

Not only that, the old lady, who had previously been in a nearly dying state, now seemed much more spirited and even opened her eyes to look at Bai Shiyi, then smiled and gently curled her finger.

Bai Jiao, who had been crying nonstop, immediately grasped her hand.

"Don't talk too much with her; she's very tired now and needs quiet rest."

After leaving these instructions, Shen Qiang smiled and left the old lady's room.

The moment he reached the outer room,

The doctors who had also come out stared coldly at Shen Qiang.

Leading them, Divine Doctor Hu said in a chilly tone, "Shen Qiang, is that all you're capable of? You said yesterday that today you would have the matriarch lively as a dragon and animated as a tiger, yet all you've done is use the Small-Leaf Plum Blossom Acupuncture Technique to forcefully extend her life. Apart from showing off your Flowers Opening Nine Branches technique, what use is that?"

Shen Qiang glanced at him coldly.

At that moment, a somewhat grim-faced Bai Shiyi and a Bai Jiao, secretly wiping away tears, came out of the room.

Seeing that Shen Qiang seemed unwilling to explain anything,

a Doctor deliberately spoke in a voice loud enough for Bai Shiyi and Bai Jiao to hear clearly, "Divine Doctor Hu isn't wrong. Using silver needles to forcefully sustains one's life, barely clinging on to a breath is nothing more than a temporary measure, not a cure. Shen Qiang, you boasted quite loudly yesterday, claiming you could have the old lady bustling with vitality, sitting in the living room to join us for tea. But now, aside from showing off your acupuncture technique, which is nothing but a pretty show devoid of substance, you've done nothing."

Upon hearing this, Doctor Hu added in a cold voice, "That's right, Shen Qiang. With such a lackluster effort, what face and qualifications do you have to stay here? If it were me, I would have left in shame by now. But you won't because you have thick skin and simply don't care about such matters."

Upon hearing these words, Bai Jiao's brows furrowed defiantly.

Just then, Bai Shiyi coughed and said, "Bai Jiao, come sit with your father for a while. You don't understand matters of medical practice, so don't interject recklessly."

Bai Jiao was startled,

then, though angry, she suppressed her fury and walked over to Bai Shiyi's side, subsequently giving Shen Qiang a look full of tender concern.

But at this moment, Shen Qiang was exceptionally calm.

He didn't bother to dignify Doctor Hu's taunts with a response; instead, he quietly sat on the sofa outside, gently sipping his tea.

"Indeed, shamelessness knows no bounds. Shen Qiang, you may well be a cultivator of some renown in the Cultivation World, but clearly you can't fulfill the boast you made. Admit defeat and get out early instead of waiting to be kicked out by the host, sparing everyone from losing face," someone remarked ironically.

Divine Doctor Hu sat across from Shen Qiang with a sneer.

Upon hearing these words, the hitherto silent Shen Qiang, looking at the arrogantly posed Divine Doctor Hu, said, "I know you're still holding a grudge because your elixir pills are like trash compared to the Divine Grade Pei Yuan Pill. But really, I don't even want to talk to you, because looking at you now, is like looking at a goldfish in a tank that thinks it understands the whole world."

A disciple behind Divine Doctor Hu mocked coldly, "Shen Qiang, my master admits the Divine Grade Pei Yuan Pill is truly a work of art. Unfortunately, you didn't refine it. You were just lucky, happening upon an elder superior who wanted to look after you. Otherwise, with your medical skills, you wouldn't even qualify to establish yourself in the Cultivation World. At best, you'd only be fit to perform hemorrhoid surgeries in a hospital."

Shen Qiang laughed, not bothering to pay any attention to him.

Just at that moment, Divine Doctor Hu arrogantly said, "Shen Qiang, if your master were here, he indeed might be able to compete with me in medical skill, but you, you've got no such qualifications. So Shen Qiang, don't try to act superior in front of me."

"Because I've seen through your capabilities. You are here merely relying on Director Bai's kindness and Miss Bai's misplaced trust in you. In reality, you are nothing but an impostor filling the ranks. So why are you still lingering here? Wouldn't it be better to go back to running your Monster Company?"

"The lofty art of healing is not something a petty person like you is qualified to touch."

As soon as Divine Doctor Hu finished speaking, the Doctors behind him chuckled.

And almost simultaneously,

a rich, exotic fragrance suddenly emanated from something Shen Qiang held in his embrace.

Not only were Divine Doctor Hu and his party taken aback, but Bai Shiyi and Bai Jiao sitting aside were also full of surprise, and many cultivators in the courtyard couldn't help but crane their necks.

"How fragrant!"

"What is this thing that smells so good?"

"An exotic treasure! It must be an exotic treasure!"

Amid the astonished murmuring of the crowd,

Shen Qiang's eyes brightened, and he joyfully took out the three-colored Earth Spirit Embryo, which was rich in fragrance, from his embrace.

The already rich fragrance immediately intensified, enveloping the entire Bai Family ancestral home in the thick aroma of the three-colored Earth Spirit Embryo.

"Shen Qiang?" Just as Bai Jiao was astonished and about to ask,

Divine Doctor Hu, sitting opposite Shen Qiang, mocked with a cold laugh, "The scent is nice, three-colored Wu Niang fruit is indeed rare. But what, you think this is a restaurant? Or do you feel incompetent in your medical skills, guilt-ridden in your heart, and are preparing to cook for us to compensate for the guilt in your soul?"
