"Ye Yang?"

Jiang Chen was startled for a moment, then he gave a slight smile, "This is truly the first time I've heard of someone who respects the disciple but looks down upon the master!"

Wu Mingzhong was taken aback, and he frowned slightly, "What do you mean by that, young friend?"

"Elder Wu might as well give Ye Yang a call and ask, my name is Jiang Chen," Jiang Chen said with a faint smile.

The Fang family members all looked at Jiang Chen with surprise. They had certainly heard of the reputation of Jinhai's number one Divine Doctor, Ye Yang. They had heard that recently Ye Yang had acquired a set of long-lost needle techniques and was in seclusion to comprehend them. If not for that, they would have gone to Jinhai to seek medical treatment. Now, hearing Jiang Chen mention Ye Yang, they were somewhat taken aback.

Wu Mingzhong regarded Jiang Chen with a deep look and took out his cell phone to dial Ye Yang's number.

"Elder Ye, do you know a young man named Jiang Chen?"

Once the call connected, Wu Mingzhong went straight to the point, his question loaded with confusion.

"Jiang Chen?! Are you talking about a young man in his twenties, with a handsome appearance and an aura of righteousness?" An excited voice came from the earpiece.

Wu Mingzhong glanced at Jiang Chen and gave a slight nod, "Yes, he is currently in Dingjing!"

"That's right, that's right, the master has gone to Dingjing!"

Wu Mingzhong was surprised and exclaimed, "Master?!"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang is my master, and the long-lost Ancient Needle Technique, the Rejuvenation Needle, was taught to me by my master!" Ye Yang said excitedly.

Wu Mingzhong's expression changed dramatically, and he blurted out, "The Ancient Needle Technique Rejuvenation Needle was taught to you by Jiang Chen?!"

"Yes! Old Wu, you... are you being disrespectful to my master? You old bastard! How dare you be disrespectful to my master! Do you believe I will beat you to death?" Ye Yang, having realized what was happening, suddenly shouted angrily from the other end.

Wu Mingzhong, shocked, looked at Jiang Chen and said with a wry smile, "I have not been disrespectful to Mr. Jiang... to Mr. Jiang, I was just a bit skeptical of his medical skills!"

"Bastard! Elder Wu, how dare you doubt my master's medical skills?! That is the greatest disrespect. If there's any illness in this world that my master can't cure, then no one can cure it!

Bastard Elder Wu, how dare you doubt my master. Just you wait, the next time we meet, I swear I'll break every bone in your old bastard body! I cannot share the sky with someone who insults my revered master!"

A louder roar came from the earpiece.

Now it was clear to all the Fang family members; they gazed at Jiang Chen incredulously. This guy... was actually the master of Jinhai's number one Divine Doctor Ye Yang? This... this...

Fang Wenzheng's eyes lit up; for the first time in his entire life, he genuinely felt that there was hope for his condition. After so many years, he had nearly lost all hope, and if not for Fang Zhenggang and others' insistence, he would have given up on treatment!

"Elder Ye, I..."

Wu Mingzhong's face was full of bitterness. To their older generation, to insult one's teacher was indeed an enmity that was unforgivable, and he understood his old friend's rage.

However, how could he have expected such a young man to possess such powerful medical skills? He had heard from Ye Yang about the divine skill of Ye Yang's master, and he had even thought about asking Ye Yang for an introduction when he had the chance. But he never imagined that Ye Yang's master would be the young man before him today and that he had already offended him.

At this moment, Wu Mingzhong felt like someone dumb who had taken a bitter medicinal herb but could not express his bitterness!

"Let me do it," Jiang Chen said, looking at Wu Mingzhong's worried face that was nearly twisted into knots, feeling somewhat amused, and gestured with his hand.

Wu Mingzhong hastily handed over the phone to Jiang Chen.

"Elder Ye, it's me, Jiang Chen," Jiang Chen spoke in a gentle voice.

"Master! Master, that old bastard doubts your medical skills, you don't need to consider my feelings, just give him a good thrashing, but… don't beat him to death, he's still an old friend of mine after many years," Ye Yang said excitedly, thinking of Jiang Chen's violence, he became somewhat worried and spoke cautiously.

Jiang Chen laughed, "Am I that violent? Do I just kill people at the drop of a hat?"

"Hehe, no, no!" Ye Yang was relieved and burst into a child-like laughter.

"How have you been progressing with your needle technique?" Jiang Chen asked with a light chuckle.

"Master, the Rejuvenation Needle is truly profound. I..."

Without being prissy, Jiang Chen soon began discussing needle techniques with Ye Yang. Wu Mingzhong's eyes lit up, and he listened intently. The Fang Family members exchanged glances and saw a sense of relaxation in one another's eyes.

By now, they could fully confirm Jiang Chen's medical skills, and anticipation lit up uniformly on their faces.

Xu Boren, watching Jiang Chen on the phone, couldn't help but flash a look of respect in his eyes. An Innate Grandmaster and a once-in-a-lifetime medical practitioner, such a person… must be befriended!

With that thought, Xu Boren made a meaningful glance towards Fang Zhenggang and Fang Wenzheng.

Fang Wenzheng and his companion were momentarily stunned, then quickly understood and nodded at each other in agreement.

"…that's the way it is, you keep practicing for now, we'll meet when I return to Jinhai. Oh, and don't worry about Mr. Wu's skepticism, after all, given my age, his suspicions are normal!" After discussing the needle technique with Ye Yang, Jiang Chen casually mentioned Wu Mingzhong's concerns.

"Yes, Master, if you say not to mind it, then I won't. I'll just scold him and let it be!"

With a slight smile, Jiang Chen hung up the phone and handed it back to Wu Mingzhong.

"Mr. Jiang, I…" Fang Wenzheng looked at Jiang Chen, his eyes sparkling and trying hard to contain his excitement, yet unable to fully hide it.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "Elder Fang, let me take your pulse."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Fang Wenzheng hurriedly nodded and quickly moved next to Jiang Chen, stretching out his hand.

After taking his pulse, Jiang Chen's eyes revealed understanding, "Elder Fang's condition is just as I surmised. I have already told Ms. Fang about it, you must be aware of it by now, right?"

"Yes, Yujie told me, my condition is exactly as Mr. Jiang described!" Fang Wenzheng nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Chen took out the Silver Needle and gestured towards Fang Zhenggang's stool. Fang Wenzheng quickly sat down there.

"Elder Fang's condition is a hidden disease that has now led to the failure of your internal organs, nearly all vitality is depleted. Lately, Elder Fang, you must have been coughing up blood night after night, feeling like there isn't much time left, right?" Jiang Chen, while arranging the Silver Needles, spoke softly.

"What?"

"Grandfather!"

"Dad!"

Fang Yujie and her family members each cried out in shock.

Xu Boren's body trembled, he urgently said, "Elder Fang indeed coughs up blood every night, Mr. Jiang, can you… treat it?"

Jiang Chen smiled faintly and turned to Wu Mingzhong, describing Fang Wenzheng's condition in detail, and softly asked, "If it were you, how would you treat him?"

"This… If it were me, I could only use acupuncture to help Elder Fang recover some bodily functions, then… supplement with medications to sustain him, but at most, he could last half a year!" A tinge of sorrow flashed in Wu Mingzhong's eyes.

"Half a year?!"

All members of the Fang Family had their expressions drastically change!
