Chapter 472: Chapter 472 Witchcraft

"Witchcraft? What is that? Dad, how could this happen?" Tang Ying couldn’t believe it.

She had never heard her father mention such a thing before.

Tang Gaozhuo’s gaze flickered, his expression deeply guarded.

Chen Xuan, however, spoke up to explain, "Witchcraft is a method of ancient witchcraft. It brings about illness by casting a curse on a person. Your father’s illness actually arose from this!"

Upon hearing Chen Xuan’s words, Tang Ying was shocked.

Witchcraft, curses, these things she had only heard about in legends before, she never imagined they could be real, and happening to her own father!

Tang Gaozhuo was also astounded at this moment.

Over the years, he had visited many famous doctors to find a way to lift the witchcraft curse from his body, but none of those so-called famous doctors could even mention such a thing as witchcraft!

Now, the young man before him seemed to understand witchcraft so thoroughly, which was truly unexpected.

"Chen Xuan, are you confident you can cure my dad’s illness?"

Tang Ying wasn’t too clear on what witchcraft really was, but what concerned her most was whether her father could be saved.

Chen Xuan’s expression turned slightly somber, "Witchcraft usually has a time when it manifests. If we want to break the curse before it manifests, it would be relatively simple."

"However, now, the witchcraft curse on your father has fully erupted, and it has reached the terminal stage."

"His body, especially the kidneys, has already suffered severe damage. Curing it will indeed require some effort."

Tang Ying caught on to something in Chen Xuan’s words, "It requires some effort? Does that mean there’s still a way to cure it?"

Chen Xuan nodded, "I can try."

Tang Ying’s eyes brightened.

She was very aware of Chen Xuan’s capabilities. If he said he could try, it meant there was a good chance of success!

Doctor Wong, the chief physician who had been listening to Chen Xuan, scoffed, "What witchcraft? I’ve never even heard of it!"

"President Tang, Miss, I advise you to be cautious. Don’t seek medical help in desperation and fall for someone’s trickery!"

Doctor Wong graduated from a prestigious medical academy, where he studied conventional Western medicine and had even done further study overseas.

He had never heard of this witchcraft that Chen Xuan had mentioned.

Moreover, Doctor Wong had been in charge of Tang Gaozhuo’s condition for the past three years, and he was very familiar with it.

By now, Tang Gaozhuo’s organs had suffered irreversible damage, especially the kidneys, which were nearly completely failing.

Under these circumstances, there was absolutely no possibility of treatment.

Yet this young man dared to say he could try?

If that’s not deceit, what is!

Chen Xuan knew that Doctor Wong meant well and didn’t take offense.

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Whether I’m deceiving anyone or not will be clear soon enough."

Tang Ying also chose to trust Chen Xuan, "Doctor Wong, thank you for your hard work taking care of my father’s illness. We’ll leave the rest to Chen Xuan."

"But..." Doctor Wong was reluctant.

From the hospital bed, Tang Gaozhuo slowly spoke, "Doctor Wong, let him try. After all, I don’t have much to lose now, do I?"

Doctor Wong was taken aback.

Tang Gaozhuo was now so ill he might not survive the day. Even if the young man did something reckless, it wouldn’t make much difference to Tang Gaozhuo.

Finally, Doctor Wong silently stepped aside.

Afterward, Chen Xuan had Tang Ying prepare some items. Once everything was ready, he began the treatment.

At this moment, Tang Gaozhuo’s face was ashen, his exhalation more pronounced than his inhalation, clearly indicating he was at his wit’s end.

Tang Ying watched by his side, tears streaming down continuously.

In this world, there is nothing more painful than watching one’s loved ones step by step towards death!

Chen Xuan took out the Yellow Talisman Paper and then bit the tip of his middle finger, rapidly writing a curse-breaking rune on the paper.

After that, Chen Xuan stuffed the written talisman into a transparent bowl and turned it upside down directly above Tang Gaozhuo’s navel.

Then Chen Xuan started to mutter indistinct incantations.

Seeing this scene, Doctor Wong and the other medical staff exchanged glances, shaking their heads helplessly.

They had thought this young man before them was a swindler, only to find he was actually a charlatan!

But the next moment, as Chen Xuan emitted the last syllable,

Boom!

The talisman paper inside the glass bowl spontaneously burst into flames!

Doctor Wong and the others were all startled. How could paper ignite out of thin air? Was this some sort of magic trick?

"Ah! It hurts! It’s so painful!!"

As the talisman burnt, Tang Gaozhuo let out a harrowing scream, his body trembling violently.

Beep beep beep beep!

The devices connected to Tang Gaozhuo emitted a piercing sound, indicating that all of his body’s indicators had exceeded the safety range.

"Stop it quickly, or else President Tang will be killed by you!"

Doctor Wong said and was about to intervene when he was blocked by Tang Ying.

"Miss, you?"

Tang Ying was resolute in her expression, "This is my dad’s only chance, I believe in Chen Xuan!"

Doctor Wong was completely speechless. "Madness! This is utter madness!"

However, Chen Xuan paid no attention to Doctor Wong’s actions. As he ignited the talisman paper, he beckoned with his hand, and four Silver Needles entered his grasp.

Then, the four Silver Needles flew out, simultaneously piercing into the area around Tang Gaozhuo’s navel, encircling the bowl and the talisman paper in the middle.

As the oxygen in the bowl was exhausted, the talisman paper had completely burnt into ashes, turning into a plume of white smoke.

At the same time,

Buzz buzz buzz buzz!

The four Silver Needles resonated at the acupoints under the influence of Chen Xuan’s True Qi.

And under this Acupoint Resonance, something astonishing happened.

The white smoke inside the bowl could be seen with the naked eye, all of it funneling into Tang Gaozhuo’s navel!

In an instant, the inside of the bowl was clean, with not a trace of smoke to be seen!

This scene left Doctor Wong and the others with their eyes wide open.

They had never seen such strange phenomena in their lifetimes!

And as the white smoke poured in, the previously screaming Tang Gaozhuo suddenly stopped.

He could clearly feel an unnamed force being drawn into him from his navel, which felt almost divine, akin to the reverence he felt when visiting gods in temples and Taoist Temples!

This miraculous power turned into a warm current, flowing into Tang Gaozhuo’s body, quickly reaching every corner, limb, and bone!

Tang Gaozhuo could distinctly feel the organs in his body that had been damaged, as well as his overall bodily functions, becoming unusually relaxed under the comfort of this warm current!
