Si Jiangyu felt somewhat aggrieved to be spoken to like that by a man five years younger than himself, after all, he was a renowned surgeon at the Imperial Capital Hospital.
However, since he was facing the heir of the Xiao family, the most powerful family in the capital, some people are simply too powerful to mess with, no matter how straight your back is.
Si Jiangyu naturally understood what Xiao Luoan meant and gestured for Si Jinyan to go forward and take a look.
Si Jinyan received a look from his senior brother, raised an eyebrow, and happily walked up to Xiao Luoan.
She squatted down and rolled up Xiao Luoan's trouser leg before he could speak.
"You..." Xiao Luoan swallowed the words back.
"Mr. Xiao, don't speak. If I say I can save you, then I can!" Si Jinyan becomes very confident, even a little arrogant, whenever he touches his area of expertise.
She calmly placed her slender hands on those legs, sensing the source of the yin energy.
Si Jinyan has been very sensitive to Yin energy since childhood, so she can tell at a glance that Xiao Luoan has been infected with Yin energy.
"Does Mr. Xiao have many enemies?" Si Jinyan asked, looking up after finishing the examination.
Her clear eyes looked at Xiao Luoan without fear. In her eyes, there was no Xiao family heir now, only a patient tainted by yin energy.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Luoan looked down and met her gaze. He felt that this girl looked very familiar, and even his voice unconsciously became warmer.
"Mr. Xiao, you've been cursed. I can heal your leg, but if the person behind this isn't found out, they might use even more insidious tactics next time."
"Moreover, Mr. Xiao, if you weren't so lucky, this curse would probably have affected more than just your legs."
Si Jinyan spoke very frankly, and she wasn't worried about Xiao Luoan getting angry, because she was the only one who could save him now.
...
Does this mean his paralysis wasn't due to a medical condition?
"The heir of the Xiao family, not to mention how many enemies he has outside, even within the Xiao family, there are people who covet his position."
Si Jiangyu was still brooding over Xiao Luoan's words earlier, and in a moment of impulsiveness, he blurted out...
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. When would he ever get rid of this grudge-holding habit...?
“Dr. Si is right, there are quite a few people who want to harm me.” Xiao Luoan was not angry, but instead went along with his words.
Si Jinyan nodded in sudden realization. So this is what a wealthy family is like?
"Then I'll be blunt, Mr. Xiao. Your hair, photos, or other personal items have been taken and misused."
“This kind of spellcasting method is mostly used by sorcerers from Southeast Asia. You can think about whether anyone in your family went to Southeast Asia more than two months ago,” Si Jinyan provided Xiao Luoan with a clue.
A cold glint flashed in Xiao Luoan's eyes, and then she let out a soft breath.
He calmed himself down before asking, "How can it be cured?"
"Southeast Asian sorcerers use their own blood as a medium. To break their spells, the only way is to use their own methods against them." Si Jinyan's lips curled up slightly under his mask. He finally had the chance to use this spell.
She was quite excited, mainly because the technique of "returning the favor" was too powerful and there was usually no opportunity to use it.
"What impact will it have on people?" Xiao Luoan asked.
“If the opponent’s cultivation is not high enough, he may explode and die. But Mr. Xiao, you don’t need to worry. That sorcerer is from Southeast Asia and won’t be able to find out about us.” Si Jinyan thought he was asking about the sorcerer’s situation, so he answered without hesitation.
"Will this affect my boss?" Shen Zhi asked directly. Who cares whether that Southeast Asian sorcerer is alive or dead? The boss is the most important person.
"With me here, what could possibly happen to him?" Si Jinyan turned around and glared at Shen Zhi. Was she questioning her abilities?
Shen Zhi was taken aback by the girl's retort and didn't know how to respond. What if he said he didn't believe her and she actually could cure him, and then she stopped treating him because of what he said?
He could only scratch his head awkwardly, deciding to wait until she treated him, and if she couldn't cure him, he would retort.
"Mr. Xiao, will you treat him?" Xiao Luoan remained silent for a long time. Si Jinyan waved her hand in front of his eyes. She was about to use all her skills, so she wouldn't just give up on treating him, would she?
"Then I'll trouble you. I'll reward you handsomely if it's done well." — Xiao Luo'an, a man of few words.
Si Jinyan stopped chatting with him and had Shen Zhi help him lie down on the bed.
"I'll be battling that Southeast Asian sorcerer later, but I'll set up a barrier to prevent any disturbances." Si Jinyan made a hand seal, and the entire floor was enveloped in the barrier.
She gestured for Si Jiangyu and Shen Zhi to stand further away, so that she wouldn't be unable to perform her moves properly later.
Si Jiangyu stood calmly in a corner, while Shen Zhi, still somewhat worried about his boss, did not move.
Xiao Luoan spoke up and told him to stand aside. Since he wanted his leg healed, he had no choice but to trust the nurse.
Moreover, he felt like he had seen that figure somewhere before, a strange sense of familiarity.
Si Jinyan took out a peach wood sword from his Qiankun bag and pinched a few talismans in his other hand.
She closed her eyes and muttered incantations, all of which were obscure and difficult to understand.
The scene was incredibly eerie: a female nurse was holding a peach wood sword and yellow paper, and suddenly the curtains and other items moved on their own without any wind.
Shen Zhi had never seen such a scene before. He unconsciously swallowed and looked at the young nurse with respect.
At this moment, Xiao Luoan on the bed started acting strangely. He suddenly opened his eyes wide, his eyes turning bloodshot.
"Little girl, don't meddle in other people's business."
The sound was like someone had a mouthful of phlegm stuck in their throat, extremely rough and hoarse, as if it came from the abyss.
Si Jinyan immediately sent several talismans flying towards Xiao Luoan's limbs, binding him tightly.
"How can making money be considered meddling in other people's business?" Si Jinyan raised an eyebrow and replied somewhat arrogantly.
With slender fingers holding several pieces of yellow paper, she struck Xiao Luo'an one after another, forcibly forcing the sorcerer's magic out.
"Little girl, who exactly are you?" Using Xiao Luoan's body, the sorcerer only said this one sentence before falling silent.
"Little Southeast Asian sorcerer, don't you know that the origin of your magic is my China?" Si Jinyan sneered, his arrogance evident in his eyes.
Si Jiangyu finally understood why his master always told him not to let his junior sister know how powerful he was.
He rubbed his forehead and shook his head helplessly. His junior sister was like a completely different person when it came to metaphysics; her proud expression was truly exasperating.
After Si Jinyan dealt with the Southeast Asian sorcerer, he used his own cultivation to draw out the Yin energy for Xiao Luoan.
Just now, the sorcerer used Xiao Luo'an's body to talk to her, which means that Xiao Luo'an has some photos or personal items on that Southeast Asian sorcerer.
But it doesn't matter now; once she retaliates in kind, that thing will be damaged.
Then all the spells would retaliate against the sorcerer, and it would be unknown whether he was dead or alive.
