Chapter 143



"Is it really that simple?" Wei Shanhai was stunned. He had been bracing himself for the pain the old doctor had mentioned during the treatment, yet it was over so easily? He quickly circulated his true qi and found no obstruction, feeling utterly relieved and free of foreign qi. Overjoyed, he exclaimed, "The old doctor’s medical skills are truly exceptional. I am in awe!"

The sword injury that had troubled him for so long, once thought to be his demise, was cured so effortlessly, leaving Wei Shanhai both shocked and delighted.

"The person who injured you has indeed mastered a formidable sword technique. The yin and tangled sword qi absorbed your life force to maintain itself and merged with your heart meridian’s qi, making it difficult to remove. However, ultimately, it was rootless. By using the silver needle to seal your acupoints temporarily, revealing its true form, it was not too difficult to eradicate," the old doctor explained.

Wei Shanhai nodded, recalling Wang Cangyi\'s sword technique. Although he resented his former friend, he had to admit Wang Cangyi\'s swordsmanship was outstanding, reaching a sophisticated level where sword qi flowed gently around his fingers.

"Old doctor, does this mean the old ancestor\'s injury is healed now?" Wei Xinghe asked.

"With the sword qi gone, the heart meridian is unobstructed. As for the other external injuries, they are easy to handle. Apply the Golden Healing Ointment, and I will prescribe some medicine to be taken regularly. With some rest, Old Wei should fully recover soon," the old doctor replied, stroking his beard.

"That\'s wonderful news! Thank you, old doctor!" Wei Xinghe exclaimed happily.

"Healing the sick is our duty as doctors, no need to be so formal," the old doctor responded.

After chatting for a while, they all left the quiet room together.

Outside, the head steward of the Wei family had been waiting. Seeing everyone emerge, and the old ancestor looking much better, he knew the treatment had gone well. He approached them respectfully, "Master, old ancestor, the banquet is ready."

"Good." Wei Shanhai nodded, then turned to the old doctor, "You must be tired from the long journey. We have prepared some food and wine in the mansion. Please, join us to refresh yourselves."

"Very well," the old doctor agreed.

As they headed to the banquet hall, they saw Mrs. Wei arriving with Xiao Yan, who was holding Xiao Li.

"Brother, Grandpa Chen!" Xiao Yan shouted happily when she saw Lu Qing and the old doctor.

"Have you been troubling the madam?" Lu Qing asked, rubbing her head.

"No, no," Mrs. Wei quickly replied, "Xiao Yan has been very good. I just took her to have some snacks."

"Yes, brother! Xiao Yan had some very delicious snacks, and Xiao Li ate a lot of fish!" the little girl boasted.

"I can tell," Lu Qing said, shaking his head at the sight of the little animal\'s round belly, nestled in Xiao Yan\'s arms, unwilling to move. Xiao Li had eaten little these days to maintain a low profile, so he let it indulge this time.

Inside the hall, everyone took their seats, and the servants began serving the dishes.

Lu Qing marveled at the lavish lifestyle of the noble families. Although there were only seven or eight people at the banquet, dozens of different dishes were served, many of which he did not recognize.

"Dr. Chen, Lu Xiaolangjun, Master Ma, it is thanks to your righteous help that our Wei family was saved from annihilation. This toast is for you," Wei Shanhai raised his cup after the food and wine were served.

After the toast, everyone began to eat. Lu Qing, a lover of good food, was delighted to see many dishes he had never seen before. He gave Xiao Yan some dishes first, then started tasting them one by one. After trying a few, he sighed, impressed by the deliciousness of each dish.

While Lu Qing was enjoying his food, he overheard Wei Zian murmuring, "Mom, why do I feel that the food at home isn\'t as good as what Lu Xiaodaifu cooked?"

"Don\'t talk nonsense, or your father will scold you!" Mrs. Wei chided softly. She also felt that the family dishes seemed less flavorful than what Lu Qing had cooked the previous day.

Wei Zian thought he had whispered, but he forgot who was at the table. Everyone had already heard him.

"Oh, Lu Xiaolangjun can cook? It must be very delicious if Zian and Ningyan are so fond of it," Wei Shanhai teased, making Mrs. Wei blush.

"Just some home-cooked dishes, not worth mentioning. The madam and the others hadn\'t tasted them before, so they found them fresh," Lu Qing said with a smile.

They continued eating and chatting, the atmosphere very harmonious. Even Mago was not ignored, and Wei Xinghe toasted him several times, promising to prepare a formal apprenticeship ceremony for Wei Zian to officially become his disciple, which made Mago flattered.

After several rounds of drinks, when everyone was almost done eating, Wei Shanhai said, "Dr. Chen, this time, Wang Cangyi brought his disciples to attack our Wei family. I think you know the reason, right?"

The old doctor was puzzled by the sudden mention of this matter but answered honestly, "I heard some rumors that it was for some treasure."

This was not a secret. When Wang Cangyi\'s disciple had pressured the Wei family, his words had been heard by the entire city.

"Indeed, he came for our family\'s treasure. When I was young and inexperienced, I roamed the world with Wang Cangyi, calling each other brothers. That treasure is something we obtained from a mystical place during our travels," Wei Shanhai explained.

"Later, we had some disputes and parted ways after dividing the treasure, cutting ties completely."

The old doctor didn\'t know these details and could only say, "What a pity."

"There\'s nothing to pity," Wei Shanhai said calmly. "With such a despicable person, I only regret not seeing his true nature earlier and cutting ties sooner. That would have saved my family from today\'s disaster."

The old doctor remained silent, not knowing the specifics of the past and thus unable to comment.

"Haha, Dr. Chen, I didn\'t bring this up to ask for your judgment," Wei Shanhai laughed, seeing through the old doctor\'s thoughts.

"I just wanted to invite you to view that treasure after the banquet."

Hearing this, the old doctor was stunned.
