109: Chapter 102: Isn’t it?
“Can you pay the price?” Su Chen’s face remained emotionless; he wasn’t the least bit shocked that Ye Zhixiong would kneel before him—it seemed to be just as he had expected.
However, the people from Mu Yangguo, Zhao Hui, Mu Ziling, and the other members of the Ye family in the hall were utterly dumbfounded, unable to put into words the shock they felt!
A Half-Step Xuanqi Grandmaster, a supreme expert, was kneeling to a young man in his twenties!
An elder from the Ye family was kneeling to a kid from the Secular World!
Utter madness!
“I’m willing to pay any price!!!” The next second, Ye Zhixiong said in a deep voice, with unwavering certainty.
“Very well, from today on, there will be no Ye family in the Martial Arts World…”
“…….” Ye Zhixiong’s breath caught, but soon, he nodded vigorously: “Agreed!”
“Old Ancestor, please don’t!” Inside the hall, upon hearing Ye Zhixiong’s words, the remaining members of the Ye family were devastated, their faces ashen, unable to believe it was true.
The old ancestor was really giving them up and even siding with Su Chen to deal with them…
How could this be?
Were they having a nightmare?
They bit down hard on their teeth, wishing they could bite them off, yearning to wake up from this nightmare, but the truth was the truth.
Looking at Ye Zhixiong again, he completely ignored the remaining members of the Ye family; his eyes were fixed only on Su Chen, staring at him like a toad dog, hoping that Su Chen would throw him a bone.
What two words did Su Chen whisper into his ear before?
Marrow Pain!
Two simple words.
The so-called Marrow Pain was quite literally pain in the bone marrow.
Others might not know, but Su Chen was well aware that Ye Zhixiong had suffered from bone marrow pain for decades.
There are too many neurons in the human bone marrow, and as a result, the pain is piercing, as if needles are pricking through, tormenting a person immensely.
About Ye Zhixiong’s Marrow Pain, in his past life, Su Chen had heard about it.
For Ye Zhixiong, whenever he cultivated, absorbing too much Spiritual Energy, the Marrow Pain would reach its peak, making life worse than death.
What he had most desired in the past several decades, and perhaps his only hope, was that one day his Marrow Pain could be cured.
Regrettably, after spending too much wealth, resources, and manpower, and consulting countless so-called divine healers, he hadn’t found a single cure.
In recent years, the Marrow Pain had even intensified subtly, almost exceeding his endurance limit.
Life was worse than death!
Worse than life being worse than death!
Ye Zhixiong was on the brink of despair.
But he never could have anticipated…
that with the emergence of Su Chen, hope suddenly appeared.
He had not told anyone else about his Marrow Pain, so how did Su Chen know?
The only explanation was that he saw it with his eyes!
To diagnose with a single glance was too unbelievable.
Ye Zhixiong almost concluded that Su Chen was indeed a healer—moreover, one who could treat the Marrow Pain.
He was so excited it was almost maddening, as if he were dreaming.
Ye Zhixiong truly did not want to relive that excruciating experience.
Everyone for themselves, heaven and earth be damned!
If the Marrow Pain could be cured, even if it meant the destruction of the entire Ye family, it wouldn’t be unacceptable.
“For now, I cannot intervene to save you!” However, at the next moment, Ye Zhixiong’s joy turned to sorrow as Su Chen suddenly spoke.
What?
It was clear to see that Ye Zhixiong’s face drastically changed, turning so red it could bleed.
He had just glimpsed a sliver of hope, and in the blink of an eye, was that hope shattered?
Cruelly unbearable.
For a moment, Ye Zhixiong clenched his fists tightly, and the aura about him became terrifyingly powerful, rivaling a hurricane!!!
He stared at Su Chen, staring fixedly, with bloodshot eyes streaking through, if looks could kill, Su Chen would have been devoured alive.
Ye Zhixiong felt he had been played, played by Su Chen.
“Why can’t you save me right now?” Yet, even so, he took several deep breaths, forcibly calming himself down, and asked.
“The origin of your bone marrow pain is quite simple, it’s just that in your early years, a half-inch long piece of a broken blade entered your body.
This fragment has been inside you for so long that it has connected with your neurons, bone marrow, and acupoints.
The best way to save you is to remove that broken blade!” Su Chen said in a deep voice.
“Then take it out!!!” Ye Zhixiong exclaimed, the clearer Su Chen explained, the more he believed that Su Chen could really save him.
Indeed, the root cause of his bone marrow pain was the broken blade fragment inside him, which other doctors had mentioned as well.
But, not a single doctor could remove that broken blade fragment.
The broken blade fragment which had connected with his neurons, bone marrow, and acupoints was nearly impossible to forcibly remove.
So, even when Ye Zhixiong suffered indescribable pain from time to time, he could only bear it.
“My current strength is not sufficient!” Su Chen shook his head.
“To save you, I need at least another half year!”
He was telling the truth; to remove the broken blade fragment without harming the neurons, acupoints, and meridian network, one must have enough Mysterious Qi strength.
Otherwise, even if he were the god among divine doctors, the success rate would not be close to one hundred percent.
Of course, he could have simply deceived Ye Zhixiong, claiming he could cure him right now and then harbor other intentions during the treatment process, easily taking Ye Zhixiong’s life.
It would have been very easy.
However, Su Chen did not choose to do so, not because he was upright or a good person, but because, in his heart, he had a deep respect for the character ‘medicine’.
Medicine is sacred, not to be trifled with or sullied.
Even in the face of his own enemy, one could kill the enemy, but absolutely not under the guise of medical treatment.
Moreover, Su Chen was indeed proud, so proud that he disdained lying.
It was still the same reasoning; he sought enlightenment.
“Half a year?!!!
That’s too long!” Hearing about half a year, Ye Zhixiong’s voice rose: “Now, take out the broken blade right now!”
Ye Zhixiong’s tone was commanding, unquestionable, like that of a superior speaking to an inferior.
Su Chen shook his head.
“I said, take out the broken blade for me now, or else, I will make your life a living hell!” The next second, like a person starved for ten days suddenly seeing delicious food, Ye Zhixiong’s emotions spiraled out of control, and he roared.
“Damn… Why can’t this kid be flexible?” From a distance, Mu Yangguo was anxious; he really couldn’t understand Su Chen’s way of thinking.
At the same time, Su Chen still shook his head, remaining serene and expressionless.
“You little bastard, you… you’re asking for death!” Finally, Ye Zhixiong lost control, his killing intent erupting and boiling over: “If you push me too far, I will simply crush you to death.
Do you think you’re still alive for what reason?
It’s because I could possibly cure my bone marrow pain, if you refuse to treat it, then you are utterly worthless, and I can take your life in an instant.
Remember, you are just an ant, an ant that I can easily crush to death!”
Ye Zhixiong’s furious, murderous roar echoed throughout the entire hall.
Inside the hall, almost everyone internally agreed with Ye Zhixiong’s words.
Including Mu Yangguo and others, they all thought the same.
“The reason Su Chen is still unharmed in face of Ye Zhixiong is because he can cure Ye Zhixiong’s illness.”
This was a fact!
But now that Su Chen was unwilling to treat, then he was completely useless!
Then he must die.
“Why is he so stubborn?” Mu Yangguo held his breath, anxiously muttered a curse: “Just bowing his head a little would be enough, but he has to…”
“Heh heh.” At the same time, to everyone’s surprise, Su Chen suddenly laughed, a faint smile, he looked up, meeting Ye Zhixiong’s gaze: “Do you think I want to cure you because I’m no match for you, and that I need to save my own life by curing you?”
Isn’t that so?
Ye Zhixiong narrowed his eyes slightly.
Then, Su Chen’s smile abruptly faded: “In fact, I simply can’t be bothered to kill off the waste from the Ye family; I don’t want to dirty my hands.
Old man, at this very moment, I’ve suddenly changed my mind.
I won’t treat your bone marrow pain because…”
At this point, Su Chen’s voice took on a playful tone: “Because, I’m very curious to see how you’re going to kill me in an instant?”
