"Wh...what?"

"Brother Xu Jin."

What did you just say?

Say it again!

Are you serious?

Lin Yaodong's eyes widened, filled with shock and excitement, and he could hardly believe his ears.

How many years has it been?!

Even Lin Yaodong didn't know how long he had been suffering from this cold-bloodedness.

It can be said that from the time he learned he had a family history of cold-bloodedness when he was a child, he has been fighting against it all his life.

I don't know how many hospitals I've been to.

I don't remember how many experts I consulted.

Each time, there was no clue whatsoever, and no hope whatsoever.

but.

He never gave up.

He continuously made money, built up his influence, and visited renowned doctors.

He founded the Lin Group.

They are not only focused on making money, but also on independent research and development.

The Lin Group's main business is pharmaceuticals, and it has also established the Lin Group Private Hospital.

Until a year ago.

Lin Yaodong used various connections to find the Gong family, one of the eight great families. After being examined by the Gong family's famous doctor, he was told that he could be cured, but he needed extremely cold ice crystals.

From that time onwards.

Lin Yaodong used a lot of money to search for Antarctic glaciers, hoping to find extremely cold ice crystals to prolong his life.

It was precisely this action.

Xu Jin, who had been sleeping in the ice for 999 years, was unearthed.

Now……

Lin Yaodong felt like he was dreaming. He never expected that his chance to get treatment would come from here.

...

Seeing Lin Yaodong's excited emotions, Xu Jin couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that this mortal realm was a lower plane than the Kunlun realm.

Otherwise, the spiritual energy of the Kunlun Realm would not have flowed into the mortal world.

It would be even more unthinkable for someone of such high status to possess the Xuan Yin Cold Body without anyone knowing.

“I’m sure I can treat him.”

Xu Jin nodded, then thought for a moment and, for the sake of thoroughness, added, "It's not a one-time cure; full recovery takes time."

"Really... That's... That's great..."

Lin Yaodong was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes, and he choked up as he spoke.

He had waited too long for this day.

I finally have hope of recovering in this lifetime.

"that……"

Lin Yaodong composed himself, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled to calm himself down.

"Brother Xu Jin, when you say it will take time, how long do you mean?"

After learning that a cure was possible, Lin Yaodong's biggest concern was time. If he could be cured within ten years, he would be willing to kneel down and kowtow to Xu Jin.

"As for the timeframe, I can't say for sure right now." Xu Jin thought for a moment, as it depended on his recovery progress. He wasn't entirely sure of his condition at the moment, so he said, "However, we can still estimate a rough timeframe, at the earliest one month and at the latest three months."

"What?!"

Lin Yaodong swayed, his legs went weak, and he almost fell. Hearing Xu Jin's words, he felt as if he had been struck by a stroke of incredible luck.

"You...you...you...you're not...trying to fool me, are you?"

Lin Yaodong felt that this was so different from his expectations that he could hardly believe it. He couldn't even fully enjoy the excitement, and deep down he was filled with great caution and doubt.

"I have no reason to lie to you."

Xu Jin shook his head, a smile appearing on his face, and used his hands to support the unsteady Lin Yaodong as he sat on his hospital bed.

"Just as you said."

"Our relationship is based on an exchange of interests."

"You saved my life."

"I'll repay you with my life."

"Equivalent exchange, fair and reasonable."

What do you think?

Xu Jin said, word by word, that just the fact that Lin Yaodong brought him out of the ice and treated him for a year to help him wake up was enough for him to save Lin Yaodong's life.

Moreover, saving Lin Yaodong's life would help him quickly recover his strength.

Each gets what they need.

Why not?

"Can you really save me?" Lin Yaodong still felt like he was dreaming and couldn't quite believe it.

“Really?” Xu Jin nodded.

"Young Master Xu Jin, oh, no, Dr. Xu, this old man has another favor to ask of you!" Lin Yaodong suddenly got up from the hospital bed, his expression excited.

"Old Lin, please speak." Xu Jin quickly stepped forward, helped Lin Yaodong up again, and then put Lin Yaodong back on the hospital bed.

"Sigh, speaking of which, our Lin family has been a family since the first year of the Kunlun calendar. It was because of this cold-blooded disease that is inherited at irregular intervals that the family declined."

Lin Yaodong sat on the bed, his face full of emotion. After learning that Xu Jin could cure his illness, he had already opened his heart to Xu Jin.

“Before I fell ill, the Lin family had not had a case of cold-bloodedness for over a hundred years. Everyone in the family thought that the curse of cold-bloodedness had disappeared, but they never expected it to fall on me.”

Lin Yaodong recounted his story.

Looking at Lin Yaodong's dejected expression, Xu Jin didn't know what to say; his feelings were quite complicated.

Mysterious Yin Cold Body.

This is clearly a good thing.

However, it falls on those who don't know how to activate it.

Instead, it became a disaster.

“If it were just me suffering from cold-bloodedness, that would be one thing, but the disease has also befallen my granddaughter.”

"She's still a child!"

"I don't want her future to be like mine!"

"Dr. Xu."

Please.

Please save my granddaughter!

Lin Yaodong became more and more agitated as he spoke, and his voice trembled at the end, revealing the psychological pressure he was under.

"You mean your family has a... cold-blooded person?" Xu Jin's eyelids twitched violently.

Good heavens!

The Lin family's bloodline is just too strong!

seem……

Lin Yaodong's granddaughter is not very old.

It's still within the scope of cultivation!

"Yes, my granddaughter Lin Keke, she's only 16 years old. I really don't want her to suffer from this illness!"

Lin Yaodong clenched his teeth tightly, his voice sounding as if squeezed out from between his teeth, and his fists were clenched as he spoke, a sense of pent-up frustration in his heart.

"16 years old..."

Xu Jin nodded silently.

She's still quite old.

It's not too old, it can still be used!

Back when we were in the Kunlun Realm.

Xu Jin had considered taking on apprentices, but he had not yet found a suitable candidate.

If Lin Keke has some talent.

Why not take on a disciple?

This can be considered as repaying the debt of gratitude owed to the Lin family.

As a cultivator.

Xu Jin didn't particularly believe in fate, but he could sense that some things were predestined.

"Old Lin."

Xu Jin raised his right hand and patted Lin Yaodong's shoulder. There was some force in his hand, but not much, conveying a sense of reassurance to Lin Yaodong.

"Don't worry, you and your granddaughter are both fine and can be cured."
