Xu Mu nodded gently, stepped forward, and grasped Qin Wu's wrist to feel carefully.
He found that there was indeed something in Qin Wu's body, but it was not qi, but something similar to a living being.
When it came to living organisms, Xu Mu activated his perception ability.
His divine - level perception allowed him to detect all living organisms within a certain range.
As long as there were such living beings in Qin Wu's body, theoretically, he could penetrate the body with his perception and see what was inside.
Sure enough, Xu Mu really observed some black dots in Qin Wu's body, which were now lurking in his brain.
Could this be...
Based on the plot, Xu Mu indeed knew about some similar things. They should be gu worms.
This Qin Wu was infected with gu!
As long as the gu worms in his brain were eliminated, his illness could be cured.
Xu Mu happened to be able to treat it. Since he could see these gu worms, he just needed to use silver needles to fix them in one place and then use qi to kill them.
As for the corpses of the gu worms, they could be completely expelled from the body with the Marrow - Cleansing Pill.
At this time, Chen Xuan stood with his arms folded, looking at Xu Mu with a flippant expression.
As the heir of a divine doctor, he was well - aware of the difficulty level.
It was impossible for this young man in front of him to know the cause of the illness.
"How is it?" Qin Ju asked Xu Mu.
"It's indeed a bit difficult," Xu Mu stepped aside and showed a smile. "However, it can be treated."
Hearing this, Chen Xuan squinted his eyes slightly. "Brother, this is a matter of life and death. Don't talk nonsense. Are you sure you can treat it?"
"Of course I can," Xu Mu nodded and turned to look at Chen Xuan. "Dude, we are about the same age. If you can treat it, why can't I?"
"What method will you use for the treatment?" Chen Xuan asked Xu Mu.
"What about you? What method will you use?" Xu Mu counter - questioned.
"I definitely can't tell you. If I do, won't you know?" Chen Xuan shrugged his shoulders.
"Then why are you asking me? Is your method so precious that you can't tell others, while mine is worthless?"
Xu Mu put his hands in his pockets, looking calm.
"Hehe, interesting."
Chen Xuan didn't believe that Xu Mu had the ability to treat the illness. Maybe it was because he himself said he could treat it, and Xu Mu was afraid of losing face, so he also claimed to be able to do it.
Qin Qiaoqiao stared at the two young men in front of her. Back then, her grandfather had searched everywhere for divine doctors, but none of them could do anything.
Now, suddenly, two young men appeared, both claiming to have methods to treat the illness.
Was it really that dramatic?
"I don't believe it! You are both liars! Liars!" Qin Qiaoqiao pointed at Xu Mu and Chen Xuan respectively.
Qin Ju walked over and placed his hand on Qin Qiaoqiao's shoulder.
He wasn't sure about Chen Xuan.
But Xu Mu definitely wouldn't lie.
As a grand alchemist, there was absolutely no reason for him to do so.
Moreover, he invited Xu Mu here this time because Xu Mu owed him a favor.
Xu Mu wouldn't gain anything from this. If he couldn't treat the illness, he could just say so directly. There was no need to talk nonsense.
"Since both of you have methods, then each of you should say what you need and the conditions."
As Qin Ju spoke, he first looked at Chen Xuan. "You go first. What do you need?"
"I only need a sixth - grade demon - suppressing wood. You don't need to provide other auxiliary medicinal herbs."
Chen Xuan looked at Qin Qiaoqiao with a smile. "If I can cure him, you have to be my servant for a few days. I just came down from the mountain and need someone to show me around modern society."
Xu Mu smiled aside. As expected of the male lead.
As a matter of course, he had guessed what would happen next.
To save her father, Qin Qiaoqiao would surely agree, and then Chen Xuan would really cure him.
After getting along for a few days, Qin Qiaoqiao gradually developed a good impression of Chen Xuan and finally became part of his harem.
"A sixth - grade demon - suppressing wood? And you want me to be your servant?"
Qin Qiaoqiao pointed at Chen Xuan fiercely, "In your dreams!"
"Then I won't treat him."
Chen Xuan shrugged, "Besides, being my servant is conditional, that is, after I cure him."
Hearing this, Qin Qiaoqiao's angry little face calmed down.
If he could really cure her father's illness, being a servant for a few days wasn't unacceptable.
Anyway, this man was definitely no match for her.
If he dared to overstep the line, she would teach him a lesson.
"Xu Mu, what about you?"
Qin Ju looked at Xu Mu and asked.
"This brother's demon - suppressing wood is indeed a way, but I have a simpler method. I don't need anything, just silver needles to cure the illness."
Xu Mu said calmly.
Soaking the demon - suppressing wood in water can produce toxicity.
Obviously, Chen Xuan also saw the reason and wanted to use the water of the demon - suppressing wood to poison the Gu worms in the body.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan shrugged, with a mocking smile on his face, "Since this brother has better medical skills, let him treat. I'm not responsible if something goes wrong."
"Dad, this Doctor Chen really has skills..."
"Yanzi, the Xu Mu I invited has even better skills."
Qin Ju interrupted Qin Yanzi's words and then smiled at Xu Mu, "Come on, I'll ask the others to go out."
"No need to go out. It's just a minor illness anyway."
Xu Mu opened the storage space from the side, reached out, took out a box of silver needles from it, and put them into his cuff.
Then he put his hands in his pockets and took out the box.
After opening it, he took out the silver needles and spread them out.
Chen Xuan smiled, waiting to see how this guy would end up.
Without a doubt, there were Gu worms in Qin Wu's body.
Ordinary drugs couldn't kill them at all. Only high - level natural treasures could be used to poison them.
How could it be possible to treat the illness just with silver needles?
At this time, Xu Mu opened his perception to check the location of the Gu worms in the brain.
If he didn't have the perception ability, he would have to use Chen Xuan's method.
Unfortunately, he could see.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Xu Mu inserted three silver needles in a row into Qin Wu's head.
Seeing this, Qin Qiaoqiao's body trembled, "Slow down!"
If it weren't for her grandfather's permission, she wouldn't have let this young man treat at all.
"If I slow down, I won't be able to cure him."
As Xu Mu spoke, he inserted four more silver needles in a row to seal the location of the Gu worms.
Swish!
This time, Xu Mu inserted two silver needles at once into the location of the Gu worms.
Then he gently flicked the silver needles with his fingers, allowing the Qi to enter the inside of the head along the silver needles.
As an alchemist, he had very precise control over Qi.
Without harming the brain, he only targeted the Gu worms for extermination.
After flicking once, he found that half of the Gu worms were dead. Then he flicked twice more to kill all the Gu worms inside.
After that, Xu Mu pulled out these silver needles.
Just then, Qin Qiaoqiao noticed that black blood was overflowing from several acupuncture points on Qin Wu's head.
"What's going on?"
Seeing this, Qin Qiaoqiao immediately stepped forward and grabbed Xu Mu's clothes.
"He already had a problem with his brain, and he still dared to stimulate it. Maybe he's already brain - dead."
Chen Xuan shook his head aside.
What a show-off this guy is! Always trying to act cool in front of me.
"What? You bastard!"
Hearing this, Qin Qiaoqiao was about to punch Xu Mu.
"Qiaoqiao! Step back!" Qin Ju snapped with a cold face.

ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
