They waited for a full five minutes, which felt like an eternity to both of them.

Finally, Chen Zhengde's wife's eyelids twitched slightly.

Chen Zhengde was overjoyed. He didn't dare to breathe loudly and stared straight at his wife, afraid that his heavy breathing would disturb her.

Finally, the woman on the hospital bed slowly opened her eyes, a look of confusion in them.

"Rulan, are you... are you awake?" Chen Zhengde wanted to speak, but all the words were stuck in his throat, and his voice was choked with emotion.

“Zhengde, I only slept for a little while, and you… how come your hair has turned white? And you have more wrinkles on your face?” Chen Zhengde’s wife looked at him, her eyes even more confused.

"Do you know? You slept for thirty years... thirty years!" Chen Zhengde cried like a child.

When his wife had the accident, she was only in her thirties, and now more than half of her life has passed in the blink of an eye.

She has the blessing of a cold bed, so her appearance remains youthful, while I have long since become an old man with gray hair.

Chen Zhengde's wife has just woken up, and he will probably need some time to help her accept this fact.

However, she had been lying in bed for too long, causing her muscles to atrophy and making it difficult for her to move. Ye Xingchen taught Chen Zhengde a set of acupuncture techniques, instructing him to perform acupuncture on his wife every day. In just six months, she would be able to get out of bed, and in a year, she would be no different from an ordinary person.

"Mr. Ye, I will never forget your kindness in my life." Chen Zhengde thanked Ye Xingchen profusely.

"We're all doctors, just doing the same thing," Ye Xingchen said. "Is your senior brother still with the Ye family?"

“Yes, he values ​​fame and fortune too much, and the Ye family has promised him many benefits.” Chen Zhengde said, “Moreover, the Seven Corpses and Nine Lives is a forbidden technique that no one dares to mention, even in the Underworld Mountain. I have tried to persuade him, but it doesn’t seem to have much effect.”

"Do me a favor and ask him to come out so I can talk to him," Ye Xingchen said. "He wants to use proper medical skills to treat the old man of the Ye family, and I won't say anything about it."

"But I cannot agree to such a heaven-defying technique."

"Understood." Chen Zhengde bowed deeply. "I'll ask him to come out. If Mr. Ye can persuade him to come back, that would be best."

“If I can’t persuade him, you might never see him again.” Ye Xingchen looked at Chen Zhengde.

Chen Zhengde was taken aback, then understood what Ye Xingchen meant. He sighed softly and nodded slightly, saying, "I understand what Mr. Ye means. I will ask him to come out."

"Alright, thank you very much, Elder Chen." Ye Xingchen nodded slowly, turned around and left.

It was still a place where the sun never shone and where yin energy abounded, where the three Yin brothers gathered.

Yin Laosan was seriously injured and was nourishing his body in the Yin Pool.

The three brothers of Yinshan practiced evil arts. Although the third brother was seriously injured, he was nourished by the Yin energy in the Yin Pool and his body would soon recover.

Finally, Yin Laosan exhaled a deep breath of turbid air, then opened his eyes, spat out a mouthful of blood, and began to gasp for breath.

"Third brother, how are you feeling?" asked the eldest brother.

"Big brother, I feel much better." Yin Laosan slowly straightened up, and said through gritted teeth, "Ye Xingchen... that bastard is stronger than we imagined."

"To be able to destroy your magic weapon, rebuild you, steal your Xuan Ring, and forcibly erase the spiritual imprint on it?" Yin Lao Er said in a sinister tone, "Forgive my bluntness, but experts in the Heavenly Realm simply do not possess such cultivation."

“That’s right. Judging from Ye Xingchen’s overall strength, this guy’s strength is at least at the Celestial Phenomenon level. He can really play dumb to fool others.” Yin Laoda said coldly, “Third brother, this time, you were careless.”

"Yes, I underestimated him." Yin Laosan spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression extremely ugly: "No wonder he was able to wipe out the Zhou family. It turns out this kid is so strong."

“Unfortunately, we are currently in a critical stage of seclusion and cannot go out casually.” Boss Yin shook his head: “Otherwise, we would just kill this kid directly.”

"Brother, that kid Ye Xingchen is investigating the matter of the medicinal corpse. I got into trouble this time because I was looking for the medicinal corpse and he ran into me. What should we do next?" Yin Laosan said, "Jiang Yongkang is pressuring us again."

"Let him figure it out himself," Yin Laoda said coldly. "This kid gave us wrong information. In his opinion, Ye Xingchen is an insignificant person who is good for nothing except for his medical skills."

"But this time, the third brother suffered such a huge loss."

“Alright, the matter of the medicine corpse is already too immoral. This kid is cunning. Let us find a medicine corpse for him.” Yin Lao Er nodded: “Third brother, stay here and take good care of your injuries. When the three of us brothers come out of seclusion together, we will definitely kill Ye Xingchen.”

"Alright." Yin Laosan nodded, making no attempt to hide the cold expression on his face: "Ye Xingchen destroyed my magic treasure and stole my storage ring. I will definitely avenge this. I will settle this score with him."

At the Ye family's villa, Jiang Yongkang finished administering the medicine to Ye Taihe.

He found seven spiders and placed them on several of Ye Taihe's large holes.

These seven spiders were poisonous venomous insects that relentlessly sucked blood from Ye Taihe's body until they grew to the size of walnuts.

After removing the spider and putting it in a container, Jiang Yongkang took out a packet of medicine powder: "Old Ye, just take the medicine on time."

"Okay, okay." Ye Taihe slowly sat up, and Ye Chengen helped him put on his clothes.

He let out a long sigh of relief. After the poisonous insect drained his blood, he felt much better.

He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Mr. Jiang, how much longer will my illness last?"

"Don't worry, Elder Ye. Your illness is incurable, and it will take time to cure. I have already asked someone to find the medicinal ingredient. Once the medicinal ingredient is found, your illness will be cured in no time," Jiang Yongkang said confidently.

"So how am I being treated now?" Ye Taihe asked hesitantly.

He suffered excruciating abdominal pain every time he took Jiang Yongkang's medicine. More importantly, he was somewhat resistant to the treatment method of having a spider suck his blood.

"Old Ye's condition is a blood vessel stiffness, an incurable disease," Jiang Yongkang said. "While the poisonous insect absorbs your blood, it will secrete a toxin into your body. This toxin can improve your blood condition."

"The medicine you are taking is Seven Insects and Seven Herbs Powder, made from seven kinds of poisonous insects. So there will be adverse reactions after taking it, but these are minor issues. Don't worry, Elder Ye."
