32: Chapter 031: Take a Gamble (Seeking Collection)_1 32: Chapter 031: Take a Gamble (Seeking Collection)_1 After leaving the ward, Lv Zhong took another walk around the Affiliated First Hospital.
At this moment, he also quietly used a trace of his spiritual sense, and was shocked to discover that even during broad daylight, this Affiliated First Hospital had a large amount of Yin Sha Qi (Negative Spirit Energy) and freely flowing soul energy.
Of course, under the illumination of the daytime Blazing Sun Evil Fire, these Yin Sha Qi and freely flowing soul energy were constantly being consumed and annihilated.
This sight even made Lv Zhong feel a pang of distress.
“Indeed, as the best hospital in the city with the most patients, even in the daytime, there are so many Yin Sha Qi and freely flowing soul energy!” Lv Zhong sighed in his heart, wishing he could raise the level of all the larvas of the [Soul Devouring Bug] by one level and have some of them hidden here to absorb the free soul energy.
In fact, if possible, Lv Zhong planned to place a batch of [Soul Devouring Bugs] in all the major hospitals in the city, allowing them to continuously absorb the free soul energy for him.
As long as there was enough soul energy, Lv Zhong could refine more mother insects, cultivate faster, and become stronger.
After a few rounds in the hospital, Lv Zhong focused on investigating the areas within Affiliated First Hospital where the Yin Sha Qi was the most concentrated.
Apart from a few weak Yin spirits gathering in the underground parking lot, there wasn’t a single ghost-like entity like Zhao Xin.
Moreover, these Yin spirits were even weaker than Zhao Xin, without any ability to shape-shift.
They had only weak soul fluctuations.
Each Yin spirit was wrapped in a ghostly fog, without a body or shape, and they were aimlessly drifting about in the underground parking lot.
Spirits like these could not harm people at all.
In fact, during the daytime, they would be afraid of living people entering the parking lot.
Only during the night when the Yin Sha Qi is most concentrated, these spirits may pose harm to people with weak Yang energy.
Lv Zhong slightly shook his head.
Zhao Xin was barely able to manifest a physical form within a month due to the effect of the [Gathering Yin Soul Stone].
Nowadays, these [Gathering Yin Soul Stone] were very scarce in society.
Even if they exist, they couldn’t all conveniently appear in every hospital, right?
If that were the case, it would have to be man-made.
Maybe it was another cultivator like Lv Zhong.
Leaving the Affiliated First Hospital, Lv Zhong took Bus 28 to the Xinhua Development Zone.
Just as he got on the bus, Lv Zhong received a call from Liu Wanqiong.
Learning that Xiao Yujie had agreed to let him treat Zhao Yuancan, Lv Zhong had a slight smile on his face.
To tell the truth, he admired the old woman Xiao Yuijie quite a lot.
She was very shrewd and resolute.
“Sister-in-law, if you’ve made your decision, then notify me next weekend.
In the meantime, I’ll take some time to go back to my hometown for preparations.
Don’t worry, it won’t delay Old Zhao’s treatment,” Lv Zhong said with a smile.
In fact, Lv Zhong knew that his actions this time were somewhat absurd, disregarding whether he could treat the other party or not.
As a high school student, people would absolutely not believe that he had the medical skill to treat cancer.
Just kidding, if a teenager of eighteen or nineteen years old had the ability to cure cancer, then the world’s top medical experts would have lived in vain.
If not for Xiao Yuijie’s decent upbringing and character, just Lv Zhong’s abrupt offer to treat Zhao Yuancan would have definitely been met with outbursts and expulsion.
This time, if Lv Zhong hadn’t diagnosed Zhao Yuancan with gastric cancer without having seen him, Xiao Yuijie would have ignored him.
More importantly, Lv Zhong was a member of a noble family of medicine, giving Xiao Yuijie a glimmer of hope.
Add to that Lv Zhong’s strong soul, his strong infectious power, and a variety of other factors, it prompted Xiao Yuijie to take a gamble.
If she bet right, Zhao Yuancan could live a healthy life.
Even if she didn’t bet right, it would only delay Zhao Yuancan’s treatment at most!
Xiao Yuijie was gambling, and so was Lv Zhong.
He had set a trap from the moment he wrote that note.
Moreover, he had long learned from Zhao Xin that he had an uncle who was a mayor.
With the ability of a mayor, it should be easy to investigate his family background.
And the Lv family’s tradition of medicine, having produced many famous doctors, should add another layer of trust for Lv Zhong in Xiao Yuijie’s heart, right?
Of course, these were not enough.
The key was to see how Xiao Yuijie would handle this and what choice she would make.
If Xiao Yuijie chose to believe in Lv Zhong, he would definitely not disappoint her and betray her trust.
Of course, Lv Zhong could also benefit from this.
During the treatment, he could steal the life energy of the cancer cells in Zhao Yuancan’s body for his own use, strengthen his soul.
Moreover, he could use Zhao Yuanyi’s connections to bring in certain patients.
As the saying goes, “Birds of a feather flock together”.
The circle in which Zhao Yuanyi operated was likely filled with officials, magnates, and people with deep connections.
Some of them had power, some had wealth and strong connections.
Lv Zhong, although a high school student, could also think of this point.
One could say that he had some scheming!
If Xiao Yuijie chose not to believe in Lv Zhong, he didn’t mind.
As for whether Xiao Yuijie could persuade Zhao Yuanyi after choosing to believe in Lv Zhong, that had nothing to do with Lv Zhong.
In the hospital, Liu Wanqiong, hearing Lv Zhong’s reply, couldn’t help hesitating.
Listening to Lv Zhong saying that he would only start treatment next weekend, she worried about what might happen to her father-in-law in this week…
Liu Wanqiong didn’t dare to think any further, only passing Lv Zhong’s words to Xiao Yuijie.
Xiao Yuijie’s face changed, her eyebrows involuntarily furrowing into a “Chuan” shape.
After contemplating for a while, she bit her teeth and nodded to Liu Wanqiong.
Upon receiving Xiao Yuijie’s response, Liu Wanqiong immediately conveyed it to Lv Zhong, making him look at Xiao Yuijie with admiration once again.
She then decisively hung up the phone.
“Sister-in-law, are you…are you confused?” Zhao Yuanyi’s face was as pale as death.
Although he didn’t scold Xiao Yujie, the tone of his words was much harsher than before.
Ji Ying tugged at his sleeve several times, but he didn’t respond.
Zhao Yuanyi thought his sister-in-law was so stricken by the news of his elder brother’s gastric cancer that she was frantically seeking help from anyone she could.
Xiao Yujie’s face was unwavering.
Her sharp gaze fell on Zhao Yuanyi’s face, speaking calmly, “Enough, third brother, you know how I am.
Even a fool wouldn’t be foolish at this time.
That student named Lv Zhong is extraordinary.
Besides, it’s just delaying Old Zhao’s treatment by a week.
If we could exchange a week’s delay for a real cure for his gastric cancer, why wouldn’t I?
Third brother, give the kid a week, and give Old Zhao some hope!”
Upon hearing Xiao Yujie’s words, Zhao Yuanyi fell silent.
He too, wished for his elder brother’s full recovery, but this…
this was gastric cancer…
Xiao Yujie’s words were organized, her eyes sharp and keen.
She appears to be clear-headed.
It’s just that her insistence on inviting a student to treat Zhao Yuancan’s gastric cancer is absurd.
He was really curious about what sort of person Lv Zhong is, to have Xiao Yujie support him so steadfastly.
Zhao Ziyu was about to say something, but was gently pulled aside by Liu Wanqiong.
The two women spoke in low voices.
*********************
Lv Zhong quickly arrived at the New Affiliated Second Hospital.
After he absorbed the mother Soul-Devouring Worm into his body, he spoke a few words to Zhao Xin but didn’t tell him about his father’s gastric cancer.
To Lv Zhong, Zhao Xin was already dead.
Telling him would only worry him needlessly without providing any help.
Leaving the New Affiliated Second Hospital, Lv Zhong walked into the Ecological Park opposite.
Taking advantage of a secluded and deserted spot, he stepped into the space of the Plague God Pearl.
He planned to utilize the tenfold time-acceleration function inside the Plague God Pearl to absorb and refine the soul energy from the Soul-Devouring Worm as quickly as possible, and then refine the second Mother Insect.
Sitting cross-legged near the wellspring at the very center of the Plague God Pearl, with the rising white fog swirling around him, his face was serene and peaceful.
Following the method of the “Bridal Clothes Divine Skill,” he began to draw some pure soul energy from the body of the Soul-Devouring Worm’s mother worm.
The rising white fog was continuously swirling, brushing against Lv Zhong’s body, making him appear extraordinarily transcendent and composed.
An air of ethereal grace projected from him.
His breaths were long and continuous.
Streams of refined soul energy started to slowly flow from the body of the Soul-Devouring Worm into his own body.
It flowed directly into Lv Zhong’s sea of consciousness…
Once the absorbed soul energy reached a certain level, Lv Zhong decisively severed his connection with the Soul-Devouring Worm, allowing the somewhat weakened Soul-Devouring Worm to rest on the withered tree near the well, while he began to cultivate the soul cultivation technique, ‘Microcosmic Spirit Condensing Technique of the Vast World,’ refining the soul energy absorbed from the Soul-Devouring Worm for the second time.
Only in this way, the absorbed soul energy can be completely used by him, Lv Zhong, and become his energy.
About seven or eight hours later, Lv Zhong completed this round of cultivation.
Now, he could feel that his soul energy once again surged significantly.
“Haha, this Soul-Devouring Worm is really powerful, it has absorbed quite a lot of soul energy in this week.” Standing up from the ground, a bright gleam flashed in Lv Zhong’s eyes, he couldn’t help laughing excitedly.
With his current soul energy, he could refine two more Mother Insects.
However, Lv Zhong wasn’t so foolish as to refine two Mother Insects at the same time.
After all, he was still a high school senior.
There’s no rush in his cultivation journey!
Moreover, Lv Zhong understood that the reason the Soul-Devouring Worm could absorb so much soul energy this time was due to the effects of the three Gathering Soul Stones!
These Gathering Yin Soul Stones had a strong effect on the Soul-Devouring Worm.
In other words, they are greatly beneficial to him, Lv Zhong.
Thinking about this, he couldn’t wait to find more Gathering Yin Soul Stones.
Stretching leisurely, Lv Zhong murmured to himself, “So, let’s start refining the Pathogenic Worm’s Mother Insect now!”
Thinking about the numerous benefits of refining the Pathogenic Worm, Lv Zhong’s heart was filled with enthusiasm.
