Chapter 288: Secret Contact and Discussions of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Superior golden silkworm Xiao Jin had been hovering above Miracle Doctor Xueâs villa. Of course, Miracle Doctor Xue was aware of it.
He was the miracle doctor of Huaxia. His intelligence was unparalleled. Miracle Doctor Xue came to the same conclusion upon seeing Xiao Jin last night: Miao Fenghuang had sent someone here.
Miao Fenghuang was passionate like fire. Miracle Doctor Xue knew she would retaliate when Ling Yun had suppressed the heart-devouring Gu insect.
Miracle Doctor Xue had thought that Miao Fenghuang would come for him personally. He had planned to admit his wrongdoing, apologize to Miao Fenghuang and beg her to retrieve her personal superior golden silkworm.
Moreover, they had been fighting in the dark for more than forty years. Both of them had not been living well.
Miracle Doctor Xue was at a ripe old age. His wife had already passed away. He had no more energy to fight Miao Fenghuang.
Miracle Doctor Xue knew that the person who appeared was not Miao Fenghuang herself when he saw Xiao Jin. Her personal superior silkworm was inside him!
Miao Fenghuang was the holy virgin from Miaojiang. They specialized in poison and were traditionally lived secluded from the world.
Miracle Doctor Xue was prepared to subdue Miao Xiaomiao and send her back as a warning if she attacked Ling Yun or him. He did not want her life.
Such was the good nature of Miracle Doctor Xue.
However, Miracle Doctor Xueâs face changed drastically when he heard that Miao Xiaomiao looked exactly like Ning Er.
Miracle Doctor Xue got up with his body trembling slightly. His eyebrows and beard twitched involuntarily. His eyes filled with shock and remorse.
âCould it be that FenghuangâŠâ
âGrandpa, what are you two doing? You were just staring at each other and then you jumped up suddenly.â Xue Meining finished her call and groaned with dissatisfaction at Miracle Doctor Xue.
That startled Ling Yun. He had only just realized that Miracle Doctor Xue was using telepathy to communicate with him.
Oh my gosh, Grandpa Xue saw through my telepathy, but I couldnâtâŠ
Miracle Doctor Xue was embarrassed by his agitation but quickly recovered his calm. He sat back onto the sofa as if nothing had happened.
âNing Er, what did you order?â Ling Yun diverted Xue Meiningâs attention to himself to allow time for Miracle Doctor Xue to recover.
âI ordered what you like to eat. A lot of itâŠâ Xue Meining squinted at Ling Yun and naturally settled herself beside Ling Yun.
Ling Yun gave a slight gulp. âHow do you know what I like to eat?â
âNot telling!â teased Xue Meining as she lifted her chin proudly.
It was not unusual for her to know what Ling Yun liked. She had sat with Qin Qiuyue on Sunday with their hands clasped firmly together and had chatted until the sundown.
âBig Brother Yun, I didnât give you a tour of my house the last time you came over since you were busy treating my grandpa. Iâll show you around nowâŠâ
Restless and bored, Xue Meining poked Ling Yunâs arms and pushed herself from the sofa.
Ling Yun acceded. It was best to give Miracle Doctor Xue some time alone to calm his nerves.
âBig Brother Yun, I will bring you to my home theater first. It is better than being in the movies. Oh, we should single out a room in your villa for movies as wellâŠâ
âOkay, okay, whatever you wantâŠâ
The most important stop was Xue Meiningâs bedroom. She had insisted on the same interior design for Mansion Number One.
The final stop was Miracle Doctor Xueâs study.
âOh my god, so many medical booksâŠâ
A large collection of Chinese and Western medical books were neatly stacked on the shelves, which Ling Yun could not help but marvel at.
It was simply a miniature medical book treasury, not a study.
âHehe, see that? This is my grandpaâs treasured collection of medical classics. Feel free to borrow any of them. Also, not anyone can just come in like that!â Xue Meining looked at Ling Yun and laughed.
As the saying went, no one should enter a manâs study or a ladyâs boudoir easily.
âBig Brother Yun, donât take these medical books lightly. Some of them are really valuable and are the only copies existing in the world. My grandpa spent a lot of effort in getting themâŠâ
Ling Yun nodded in agreement. Xue Meining was speaking the truth.
âCompendium of Materia Medicaâ, âThe Yellow Emperorâs Internal Classicâ, âSpiritual Pivotâ, âPlain Questionsâ, âThe Yellow Emperorâs Canon of Eighty-One Difficult Issuesâ, âTheory of Acupunctureâ, âPulse Classicsâ, etcâŠ
Ling Yun swept his gaze through them and found many titles that he possessed as well.
Of course, there were many more medical books here than on his shelf. There was even a row of identical books but with different packaging and style.
Perhaps I will borrow a few books from Grandpa Xue laterâŠ
Ling Yun had been too busy to read these past few days. Apart from cultivation, he had been in fights. He also had to focus on his studies and had not even paid attention to where Zhuang Meifeng had placed his own books.
Ling Yun was in awe of mysterious Traditional Chinese Medicine. It wasnât by chance that Ling Yun had become the genius of the Cultivation World. He had an innate aptitude and enhanced it by studying the âSpiritual Pivotâ.
Ling Yun was rather surprised when he found the same âSpiritual Pivotâ in Huaxia. Miracle Doctor Xue and Xue Meining knew about Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot as well. Was this all a coincidence?
What kind of connection did the two world have? What were their mysteries and secrets? Why was he sent to Earth when he failed his Tribulation?
These were the biggest questions in Ling Yunâs mind. He needed to gradually unveil the mysteries of this world through his own cultivation!
âBig Brother Yun, what are you thinking about?â
Ling Yun fell silent again and Xue Meiningâs romantic view of Ling Yun took over. She thought that Ling Yun was awestruck by the sheer number of books.
He was sensitive and eager to learn. It was definitely a trait that everyone would admire.
Ling Yun smiled and caressed Xue Meiningâs silky hair. âNing Er, do you like to study medicine?â He stroked her eyebrows softly.
Xue Meiningâs body shuddered from the gesture. She said softly, âThat goes without saying. Our family has been in Chinese medicine for generations. We help the ill and wounded.â
âThatâs great to know. I will teach you the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot then!â
âThank you, Big Brother Yun! Donât forget to teach me some martial arts too!â Xue Meining became extremely happy.
âHaha! Of course! Otheriwse, you wonât be able to use the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot!â Ling Yun grinned and turned serious. âNing Er, do you know how tough it is to master the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot?â
âHow can that be, Big Brother Yun? It didnât seem difficult at all when you were using it.â Xue Meining was taken aback.
âThatâs where you are wrong, Ning Er. The Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot is infinitely harder than what you think! I am just very familiar with it!â Ling Yun shook his head in disagreement.
âLing Yun is right!â Miracle Doctor Xue appeared out of nowhere and nodded. âThe most difficult part of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot lies in its application for diseases of different natures. We have to find the meridian and acupuncture points for different needles and also have to take into account the order of implementing and extracting the needles.â
âThere are numerous types of diseases and every type of disease is different. Therefore, the acupuncture points to be treated are also different. Other than that, there are also different orders for these implementations. There may only be nine needles, but there are millions of ways to use it. Ning Er, your Big Brother Yun is a medical genius. You have a lot to learn from himâŠâ
âGrandpa, you are embarrassing me. I am not as good as you say! I apologize for not recognizing who you are the last time we met. I am really humbled in your presence.â
Miracle Doctor Xue smiled. âThere is a saying that whoever has the greatest power is the teacher. You are so well-versed in the deployment of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot. Ling Yun, you are definitely the best Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor in the whole of Huaxia!â
Ling Yun was indifferent to Miracle Doctor Xueâs words of praise. After all, he was unfit to sit on the throne if he only knew the usage of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot. Of course, if he included the art of Talismans, it would be a different story.
What was more, once Ling Yun managed to reach the Qi Cultivation stage, he would be able to use the Five Elemental Vessel Seal and the Five Elemental God Acupuncture. Even in the Cultivation World, one would be invincible if one could treat diseases using the human bodyâs Five Elements, which mutually generated and restrict each other!
âBig Brother Yun, is this true?â Xue Meiningâs eyes widened in surprise.
âGrandpa Xue is exaggerating my capabilities, but I think⊠itâs somewhat correctâ Ling Yun said bluntly.
Xue Meining giggled while Miracle Doctor Xue nodded in agreement.
âAlright, they have brought the food over. Ning Er, get the two bottles of good wine that I have kept for thirty years. We will celebrate tonight!â
