After opening the needle box, Ye Xuan selected the longest silver needle and aid it at the Bai Hui acupoint at the top of Xu’s head, inserting it directly.
"Ah—"
Seeing this scene, Xu Renhai’s eyes widened as he couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, his face showing a mixture of surprise and anger.
Such a long silver needle, even if it isn’t inserted into the head, would be lethal if stuck into any part of the body! Moreover, he had just witnessed with his own eyes that Ye Xuan had inserted nearly two-thirds of the needle into his father’s head.
The silver needle was more than twenty centiters long, and two-thirds of that would be at least over ten centiters, right?
If sothing this long is completely inserted into the brain, it wouldn’t just kill a person, but completely do them in!
Could it be that this guy is hiding his identity and is actually an enemy of the Xu Family, sent to assassinate the old man?
It’s no wonder Xu Renhai’s thoughts ran wild; the violent scene just now was simply too shocking.
Just as he was about to stop Ye Xuan, a hand suddenly reached out from the side to cover his mouth.
"Hua Lao, you..."
Xu Renhai turned his head and saw that the person stopping him was actually Hua Lao.
"Don’t be in a hurry, keep watching."
Hua Lao shook his head at him, speaking in a low voice.
Perhaps because of trust in Hua Lao, or perhaps because the dical instrunts monitoring his father showed no change in data, Xu Renhai’s expression changed a few tis before he finally held back, continuing to watch.
However, when the next scene unfolded, even Hua Lao found it difficult to remain calm.
Ye Xuan’s actions were still the sa as before, not too fast or too slow.
Taking the needle, sterilizing, inserting the needle—the entire process was smooth and skillful.
This wasn’t particularly surprising; anyone familiar with acupuncture in the Ancient dicine could do it like this.
What truly shocked Hua Lao to his core was that every silver needle Ye Xuan inserted was almost all targeted at Xu Senior’s vital and deadly acupoints, and the depth to which they were inserted into the body was downright terrifying!
If he hadn’t already known that Ye Xuan was treating and detoxifying Xu Senior, he would’ve thought it was an attempt on his life.
Having spent years curing illnesses and saving lives, this was the first ti Hua Lao had seen soone detoxify through acupuncture in vital death points—it was simply contrary to common sense! Wasn’t he afraid that the slightest mishap could result in death?
When Ye Xuan inserted the thirteenth silver needle, Hua Lao, whose heart had been constantly on edge, finally relaxed a little.
He was really worried that Ye Xuan might not control his strength, and a slip of the hand would lead to the untily death of his old friend!
However, just as Hua Lao let out a sigh of relief, his eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.
At this mont, Ye Xuan’s ten fingers, like playing a pipa, rhythmically touched the thirteen silver needles.
If one took a closer look, they would notice that as his fingers touched the needles, they continuously adjusted their actions—pinching, tapping, flicking... To sum it up in one phrase: deftly pinching, patting, and flicking the strings!
Each ti his fingers plucked the needles, a completely different action would unfold.
Moreover, as he moved too fast, his hands seed to leave a series of afterimages.
Hua Lao strained to keep his eyes wide open, tightly focusing on Ye Xuan’s hands, but after a while, his eyes began to sting, vision blurring, leaving him dizzy!
Eventually, Hua Lao sighed inwardly and gave up observing,
Realizing that he finally understood why Ye Xuan had let him watch unabashedly—this miraculous acupuncture technique couldn’t simply be learned by watching! It required imnse talent, a talent evidently beyond him.
The process of ’playing’ the silver needles lasted about ten minutes.
Finally, Ye Xuan’s hands stopped!
However, if soone carefully observed his arms, they would see that his hands were trembling slightly.
Especially under the sleeves, his veins were protruding, and the skin on his arms was slightly swollen from blood congestion, covered in worm-like bruises.
Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly; indeed, with his current strength, performing that acupuncture technique was still sowhat too strenuous, putting a considerable burden on his arms.
In just over ten minutes, he was already exhausted, and his arms almost couldn’t bear it, each suffering damage!
Nonetheless, achieving it was a source of satisfaction for Ye Xuan.
"Huh? Look quickly, the old man’s body is showing changes!"
At this ti, Xu Renhai, who had been frowning tightly, seed to have discovered sothing, imdiately shouting in surprise, unable to suppress the excitent in his heart.
Even his voice was trembling slightly!
However, nobody cared about Xu Renhai’s loud voice anymore, as they were all stunned by the miraculous scene unfolding!
At this mont, the silver needles inserted into Xu Senior, without anyone touching them, started to tremble as if alive.
Moreover, if you listened closely, you could hear the collective buzzing sound of the needles vibrating.
With these silver needles shaking, even with the naked eye, one could see the old man’s withered, bark-like skin on the hospital bed seemingly moving with a white airflow, causing ripples like waves—utterly astonishing.
At this mont, everyone was so srized by the phenonon on the old man’s body that they didn’t notice Hua Lao’s expression becoming incredibly complex!
A mixture of excitent, shock, and a trace of perplexity appeared on his face... As if there was sothing he couldn’t quite understand.
Suddenly, a eureka mont flashed in his mind, leading him to a term so thrilling.
"I know! I finally figured out what this acupuncture technique is! This... this is the Yin Yang Ghost Needle!"
Hua Lao slapped his thigh, almost jumping up from the ground in excitent.
His voice, being overly excited, was loud enough for everyone in the hospital room to hear it.
Everyone jumped in fright.
Thinking the old man had gone mad!
At this mont, Ye Xuan frowned, halting his manipulation of the needle, and glared at Hua Lao, shouting: "Quiet down!"
Hua Lao looked embarrassed, realizing his mistake, and quickly closed his mouth.
Initially, people didn’t understand why Hua Lao was so excited, but after noticing the increasing respect in Hua Lao’s gaze following the recognition of Ye Xuan’s technique,
when facing Ye Xuan again, Hua Lao stood with his hands lowered respectfully as if he were a student facing a ntor.
Being sharp-witted, they imdiately sensed this, and their opinion of Ye Xuan’s status soared.
Xu Renhai’s eyes flickered slightly, speaking in a low voice: "Hua Lao, is the Yin Yang Ghost Needle really that formidable?"
Hua Lao shot him a sidelong glance, seemingly displeased that Xu Renhai didn’t know the fa of the Yin Yang Ghost Needle, lowering his voice to say: "You understand nothing! The Yin Yang Ghost Needle is one of the most enigmatic sets of acupuncture techniques in the Ancient dical World! It is said that if executed to its highest level, it is capable of raising the dead and regrowing bones."
Previously, I only read about it in ancient dical texts and didn’t believe in such a magical technique, but I never thought I’d witness it firsthand today! Renhai, your Xu Family truly has struck gold this ti, being able to invite the inheritor of the Yin Yang Ghost Needle to detoxify for Brother Xu—is a blessing accumulated from the virtues of your family’s past lives..."
Hearing this, Xu Renhai’s expression shifted, recalling Hua Lao’s respectful attitude towards Ye Xuan, whispering: "Hua Lao, is the background of the Yin Yang Ghost Needle that significant?"
