Chapter 69: Lin Mofei is actually Xiaoxiao's father

"Let me check on him!"

Northern Hong asked in surprise, "Master, are you skilled in medicine?"

"Nonsense!"

Li Mochen placed a hand on Xu Chao and instantly diagnosed his condition.

"All five segments of the spine are completely shattered."

"His meridians are damaged, and his internal organs have ruptured. Whether he becomes crippled is one thing, but whether he can even survive is a question."

Any other doctor would have given up on treatment by now.

However, this level of injury was merely child's play to Li Mochen.

"You're quite lucky. I just happened to buy a set of silver needles, so your life will be spared. Let me reconnect your bones and sinews."

Li Mochen retrieved the silver needles from his robe and rapidly applied them to Xu Chao with divine precision.

The agony of having one's broken bones reconnected distorted Xu Chao's facial features.

He broke out in a cold sweat from the excruciating pain, feeling as though ten thousand ants were devouring his heart.

Seeing Li Mochen administering acupuncture to save a life, the surrounding martial artists cast curious gazes.

Who was this young man? They had never seen him before.

Pang Cheng let out a cold snort.

"Pretentious! With the kick I delivered, he is undoubtedly crippled. Even if the divine doctor Lu Yuan were here, he couldn't save him."

Li Mochen turned his head and cast a light glance at Pang Cheng.

"If you have a tongue that speaks superfluous words, I can pluck it out for you!"

Just that single glance made Pang Cheng shudder all over.

It felt as though he had been locked onto by an ancient, ferocious beast.

"This fellow..."

Clenching his fists, Pang Cheng looked at Li Mochen with mixed feelings of shock and suspicion.

This guy clearly wasn't a martial artist; why was he so terrifying?

...

Right at that moment.

A Mercedes-Benz SUV approached from a distance.

Several people stepped out of the vehicle.

It was Lin Mofei and his companions.

Lin Mofei said to Gu Yaqing beside him, "Yaqing, since the divine doctor Lu Yuan has already examined her, he will definitely be able to cure Xiao Xiao's illness."

"As long as we acquire the thousand-year-old blood ginseng at the auction, the ailment will be completely eradicated!"

"No matter how much it costs, I will definitely buy it."

Gu Yaqing nodded indifferently and said, "Thank you!"

She let out a deep sigh.

Her mind was filled entirely with the shadow of Li Mochen.

Upon learning that Li Mochen could cure Xiao Xiao, she had felt a surge of hope and intended to give him a chance.

Yet, that seemed impossible now.

Divine Doctor Lu Yuan of the Immortal Cloud Valley had arrived in Wushi and examined Xiao Xiao's condition.

He had also devised a method of treatment.

All they needed was to acquire the thousand-year-old blood ginseng from the underground auction to cure Xiao Xiao.

Gu Yaqing had once promised that if Lin Mofei could cure Xiao Xiao, she would marry him.

Never had she expected things to progress to this point.

This filled Gu Yaqing's heart with deep resistance.

She knew she did not love Lin Mofei at all.

She was only choosing to compromise for the sake of her daughter.

Gu Lang, standing nearby, smiled warmly and said, "Yaqing, Mofei really put in a tremendous amount of effort this time. The divine doctor Lu Yuan of the Immortal Cloud Valley is not someone just anyone can invite."

Gu Yaqing nodded slightly, remaining silent.

Lin Mofei smiled and said, "This is only what I ought to do. Brother Lang flatters me!"

Gu Lang, however, held a deep admiration for Lin Mofei.

"It's no flattery. You are just as exceptional as your sister. With both of you leading the Lin family, its future is boundless. If my eyes do not deceive me, you broke through to the early stage of the Grandmaster realm just yesterday."

A jolt went through Lin Mofei's heart, and the look he gave Gu Lang carried a trace of wariness.

As expected of the direct heir of the Gu family in Yuncheng. He had told no one about this matter, yet Gu Lang had seen through it at a glance.

Lin Mofei smiled calmly. "Yes, it was merely by chance."

"The martial path is entirely about strength; how can one speak of mere chance?"

Gu Yaqing was immensely surprised beside them.

Although she was not a martial artist, she knew a great deal about them.

Lin Mofei had actually broken through to the Grandmaster realm?

This meant that, given his talent, there was a hundred percent chance he would eventually become a Great Grandmaster.

Such talent defied the heavens.

The future of the Lin family would indeed be unimaginable.

Amidst her astonishment, Gu Yaqing tightly knitted her delicate brows.

Noticing Gu Yaqing's shock, Lin Mofei felt a surge of inner complacency.

Am I not ten thousand times better than that damned Li Mochen?

At that moment.

The three of them noticed the situation ahead.

"Strange, why aren't they going up the mountain? What are they gathered here for?"

"Let's go take a look and find out!"

As the three walked into the crowd, they saw Li Mochen performing acupuncture on Xu Chao.

"It's actually him?" Gu Lang looked somewhat surprised.

Gu Yaqing widened her beautiful eyes in shock, staring fixedly at Li Mochen.

Why was he here?

Gu Yaqing's mind was in utter turmoil.

She had clearly agreed to let Li Mochen try, and if he found out that Lin Mofei could cure Xiao Xiao, he would surely be furious, wouldn't he?

If Li Mochen learned that Xiao Xiao was his daughter, he would definitely be overjoyed!

What was going on?

What on earth was that good-for-nothing Donggong Chang doing?

Didn't he say he was going to finish him off?

Why was Li Mochen still alive?

Lin Mofei felt extremely displeased inside.

He had specifically called Donggong Chang and given him explicit instructions.

Donggong Chang had even agreed.

Why was Li Mochen still standing here safe and sound?

Lin Mofei swept his gaze across the scene.

He saw Northern Hong standing beside Li Mochen, waiting anxiously.

Lin Mofei's expression shifted.

"What is the meaning of this? Why are they together?"

A bad premonition arose in Lin Mofei's heart.

He hurriedly took out his phone to call Donggong Chang.

However, there was no answer.

It was over!

Something must have gone wrong!

"That useless piece of trash!"

Lin Mofei clenched his phone tightly, his expression chilling to the core.

He guessed that Northern Hong and Nangong Jin must have seen through Donggong Chang's intentions beforehand.

Consequently, they had eliminated Donggong Chang and rescued the near-death Li Mochen, which in turn allowed Li Mochen to join the Raging Wind Hall.

Given Li Mochen's limited capabilities, that was the only logical explanation.

Hmph...

Did he think he could survive just by having Northern Hong's protection?

In his eyes, Li Mochen was nothing more than a fart.

If he, Lin Mofei, wanted him dead, he had to die!

By this time.

Gu Lang and Gu Yaqing had asked the people nearby and finally learned what had just happened.

Gu Lang said with a hint of amusement, "I never imagined he would know medicine."

Gu Yaqing looked at Li Mochen, worry etched across her face.

"Brother, can you help them? No matter what, he is Xiao Xiao's father!"

Gu Lang's expression turned stern.

"Remember this: Xiao Xiao's father is already dead. Once you marry Mofei, he will be Xiao Xiao's father."

"If it weren't for that ungrateful wretch, would you have suffered for all these years? It's already merciful of me not to have killed him, and you want me to help him?"

"Pure delusion!"
