Chapter 1443: Chapter 1443: Not a Necessity!
Ye Haochuan certainly understood Hu Ke’s aning; he also believed that Ye Haochuan’s dical skills were not very high. If Ye Haochuan were to rescue, the chances of failure would be much greater.
Ye Haochuan did not reveal this; thinking this way saved him a lot of words.
However, Ye Haochuan did not rush to rescue but rather looked at Hu Zhong with interest.
The reason he took the initiative to intervene in this matter today was, firstly, because the elder died saving him, and secondly, for Hu Zhong.
No matter how one looks at it, he and Hu Zhong were old acquaintances. Moreover, his ability to easily return to Xuantian City from the Cold Pond was entirely thanks to Hu Zhong’s map.
If it were soone else doubting his dical skills earlier, he would have certainly turned around and left without saying another word.
If Hu Zhong didn’t trust him, he had no need to stay there and court troubles.
Hu Zhong still hesitated, but seeing Ye Haochuan’s confident expression, he gritted his teeth and said, “In that case, I will trouble Brother Ye.”
He had figured it out; if Ye Haochuan truly intended harm his father, then why bother bringing the Blood Pill? Furthermore, it was Ye Haochuan who saved his life in the Hell Fierce Wolf’s territory before; it was unlikely Ye Haochuan would harm him.
Hearing Hu Zhong’s words, Ye Haochuan felt relieved, quickly saying, “Show the way; the patient’s condition is urgent, we must not delay even for a mont!”
His urgency was due to not knowing what Niuzhi had gone to do minutes before; if he were late, he feared it might be too late.
Hu Zhong naturally understood the urgency of his father’s condition and hurriedly led the way; only Deng Jiu was still very concerned about Ye Haochuan. However, as a servant, his concerns were clearly of no use.
Soon, the group arrived at a secluded room; before they could enter, a maid rushed out, anxiously shouting, “Bad news, the Family Head spat blood…”
Hu Zhong’s face changed at these words; although his father had been gravely ill for a long ti, he had never shown symptoms of spitting blood. He was alert and quickly invited Ye Haochuan inside.
Ye Haochuan clearly saw a trace of smugness on Hu Ke’s face, imdiately furrowing his brow. It looked like Niuzhi had secretly made his move.
Thinking this, he quickly hurried into the room.
The room was simply furnished, with so basic furniture and a classic-style bed. At this mont, on the bed lay a robust middle-aged man.
Although this middle-aged man was stately, his complexion was extrely poor, with his face covered in a bizarre mix of blue and red. His breath was weak to the point where he seed ready to lose the last trace of life at any mont.
This middle-aged man was exactly Hu Zhong’s father, the legitimate Patriarch of the Hu Family, Hu Wang.
Ye Haochuan carefully took Hu Wang’s pulse, but his brow furrowed tighter and tighter.
“Brother Ye, my father was clearly fine earlier, why has his condition suddenly worsened?” Hu Zhong asked anxiously.
“If I am not mistaken, soone should have visited earlier, right?” Ye Haochuan asked sowhat mysteriously.
Hu Zhong understood imdiately, glaring at the maid angrily, “Quickly, tell who ca over earlier?”
Hu Ke froze; he originally thought Ye Haochuan was young, with unlikely high dical skills, yet Ye Haochuan had discovered anomalies rely by taking the pulse.
“No, impossible, it must be a coincidence.” Hu Ke comforted himself inwardly.
“Earlier… Earlier…” The maid stamred, intending to speak but suddenly seeing Hu Ke’s icy gaze, she imdiately chilled and changed her words, “No one ca by earlier!”
“You…”
Hu Zhong was about to explode but heard Hu Ke intervene, “Regardless of whether soone ca through, let’s first see if your father’s illness is still treatable!”
This sentence was clearly a diversion, yet it made much sense; regardless of a visit, rescuing Hu Wang was the most critical matter.
Hu Zhong quickly turned, looking expectantly at Ye Haochuan, “Brother Ye, my father is still…savable, right?”
“With here, how could there be no salvation?” Ye Haochuan chuckled, gazing at Hu Ke with interest, then taking out the Silver Needle to prick several points on Hu Wang’s head.
Soon, a wisp of black smoke erged from Hu Wang’s brow; as this smoke dissipated, Hu Wang’s complexion improved by three degrees.
“What?” Hu Ke was again shocked by this scene, suddenly realizing that letting Ye Haochuan rescue Hu Wang was his biggest mistake.
Originally, his plan was for Niuzhi to secretly co and use dicine to severely worsen Hu Wang’s body, then let the “young and inexperienced, dically unskilled” Ye Haochuan treat him, eventually finding himself helpless, leading to Hu Wang’s death.
He refrained from directly slashing Hu Wang to avoid drawing suspicion and public unrest; following his plan, Hu Wang would die naturally from deteriorating illness, leaving no unnaturalness.
But now, he clearly regretted it; Ye Haochuan’s dical skills exceeded his imagination, promptly expelling the toxins Niuzhi had introduced.
In hindsight, it would have been better if Niuzhi had directly slit Hu Wang; there would have been no unexpected changes.
Regret aside, the critical issue now was not this, but how to overturn the situation.
Just as his thoughts were drifting, Ye Haochuan suddenly dropped another bomb.
“Patriarch of the Hu Family, this is not an illness; it is clearly poisoning!”
“What?” Everyone was shocked by this revelation.
Deng Jiu first raised doubts, saying, “Impossible, Elder Cheng diagnosed himself, saying the Family Head contracted a strange disease; how could it possibly be wrong?”
“If this so-called Elder Cheng isn’t a charlatan, then it seems he must have been bribed!” Ye Haochuan smirked, glancing at Hu Ke.
The others were not foolish; this Elder Cheng had quite a reputation in Xuantian City, clearly not a charlatan; the only other possibility was evident, including who had bribed him.
Hu Ke’s face changed quickly; he imdiately retorted angrily, “Brat, you’re talking nonsense! Elder Cheng is virtuous and respected; how could he be the kind of person you describe?”
“Soone, throw this heap of nonsense out of the Hu Family!”
This comnt showed a hint of panic, but so truly believed it; the problem was Elder Cheng’s reputation was so prominent, few believed he would deliberately misdiagnose due to bribery.
“Whether I am speaking nonsense will beco clear once I save the Patriarch of the Hu Family.” Ye Haochuan remained calm, saying nothing more to Hu Ke, focusing solely on treating Hu Wang.
Hu Zhong then rembered the Savage Bull Blood Pill Ye Haochuan gave him earlier, hurriedly taking it out, handing it to Ye Haochuan, saying, “Brother Ye, please make sure to save my father.”
Witnessing Ye Haochuan’s earlier handcraft, he now fully believes in Ye Haochuan’s dical skills, eyes full of hope.
Ye Haochuan smiled but did not accept the Blood Pill, instead saying, “This Blood Pill can indeed cure your father’s illness, but it’s not a necessity!”
“What? Not a necessity?” Hu Zhong murmured.
His grandfather sacrificed his life for this item; now Ye Haochuan told him it wasn’t necessary; one can imagine the turbulence in his heart.
