Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 85: 85 The Despised Patient

Fang Jianhong bowed his head even lower, and Wang Fangcun became anxious, ”Why aren’t you speaking? You have such a close relationship with Su Yang, so what’s the deal today?”

After a long silence, Fang Jianhong finally recounted what had happened between Su Yang and Lin Qingru.

Upon hearing Fang Jianhong’s words, Wang Fangcun slumped into his chair.

A long while later, he grabbed the tea cup from the table and furiously hurled it at Fang Jianhong, roaring, ”Fang Jianhong, how many times have I told you not to look down on people? Dammit, if you want to die, go ahead, but don’t drag me down with you. I’m telling you, if you can’t resolve this issue, I’ll make sure you can’t get away with it!”

Fang Jianhong trembled all over, realizing the severity of the situation as Su Yang continued to cure patients one after another.

If he had known Su Yang was this capable, he would never have fallen out with him.

While Su Yang’s family background was average, with his medical skills, he could certainly become a leading figure in the country. His family background wouldn’t be a problem at all!

But now, how could he mend his relationship with Su Yang?

Gritting his teeth, Fang Jianhong made up his mind: no matter what, he had to make Lin Qingru end up with Su Yang!

As long as the two of them were together, after all, he was Lin Qingru’s uncle and Su Yang’s elder. Wouldn’t he be able to bask in the reflected glory?

...

The treatment at the seminar continued, and the ninth patient was still being treated by Su Yang.

From the sixth patient onwards, no one on the spot had any confidence left; only Su Yang could take action.

These four patients had shown everyone what a real miracle worker was, and what divinely inspired medical skills were like.

Common medicines, in the hands of Su Yang, could work wonders.

A few ordinary silver needles, in Su Yang’s hands, could connect Yin and Yang and bridge life and death.

Who could not respect such ability?

Even those second-generation rich kids upstairs who originally had little respect for Su Yang now had to admit that he was genuinely skilled!

And the expert doctors at the scene were more excited than ever, clamoring that they would definitely start studying traditional Chinese medicine after returning home. The legacy left by their ancient ancestors was truly miraculous!

After the ninth patient was taken away, it was finally time for the tenth one.

Everyone craned their necks. This tenth patient was the finale of the seminar, undoubtedly the one with the most severe condition, even more serious than all the previous patients combined!

Nobody was thinking about their ability to treat this last patient now; they just wanted to know if Su Yang could cure this final patient.

Finally, the tenth patient was pushed forward, and upon seeing this person, quite a few started to retch.

It was a small-framed person of indeterminate gender. Despite wearing a relatively clean hospital gown, they emitted a pungent odor that made onlookers feel nauseated.

The true horror was the person’s face. It was covered with pus-filled swellings as large as soybeans, and within these swellings, something akin to worms seemed to be slowly writhing. Some of these swellings had ruptured, with small fleshworms crawling out, entering and exiting the surrounding sores, an utterly nauseating sight.

Although the sixth patient was also covered in sores, the difference compared to this tenth person was like heaven and earth. The pus-filled swellings on the face of the tenth person were simply too disgusting. Even the battle-hardened doctors began to retch.

Moreover, this was only the face. The person’s hands, legs, and all exposed skin were far from intact, all riddled with various sorts of swellings. In some places, they were even more revolting than those on his face.

His body was covered by clothes, so the full extent of his condition couldn’t be seen. However, there was no doubt that his body must also be covered with such swellings.

”What... what in the world is this?” Finally, a doctor couldn’t help but ask aloud.

”Ah, this is our tenth patient.” The host picked up the file and said, ”The information shows that he was an abandoned baby, adopted by an elderly couple.”

”When this couple found him, he was only one month old and was already covered with such pus-filled swellings.”

”The couple tried everything, but couldn’t cure him. According to the examination results, his bodily functions are normal and there’s nothing particularly special about him.”

”No way?” The doctors below were all dumbfounded. Although the previous patients had difficult conditions, at least some abnormalities were detected. With those conditions known, they could still devise treatments.

This patient, showing no abnormalities and with completely normal bodily functions, yet presenting such a condition, how were they to treat him? Without any abnormalities, how could they tailor a treatment?

Everyone turned to Su Yang. Could he still cure this patient?

Su Yang didn’t speak. Since the appearance of this patient, his gaze hadn’t left him. Even his eyes were full of shock.

To others, it might seem Su Yang was shocked by the patient’s condition. In fact, only Su Yang knew that what truly shocked him was the patient’s constitution.

The pus-filled swellings on the person’s body weren’t a disease at all, but an innate talent carried since birth. This talent would automatically unravel once it reached a certain level of growth, or it could be unlocked by certain external stimuli.

Such innately talented individuals are referred to as possessing the Heavenly Destiny Physique in the records of Destiny’s Tome. That is to say, such people are favored by the Heavenly Dao, which is why they have this unique constitution.

Before this talent is unlocked, it manifests in some form on the body. It might be a birthmark or other distinct characteristic, like double pupils, excessive hairiness, and so on—traits that are difficult to imagine.

And the characteristic of this person before me is clearly the full-body pus-filled swellings.

Although it looks revolting, this type of constitution is extremely rare. People with this type of constitution, if they enter the path of cultivation, their future accomplishments would be terrifying!

”Doctor Su, what do you think of this patient’s condition?” The host asked Su Yang directly, knowing that no one else present could resolve the matter.

Su Yang stood up and walked over to the patient.

The patient’s eyes conveyed panic and fear; it was clear that he wasn’t comfortable with the current situation.

”Doctor Su, his foster father passed away last year, and now there’s only an old mother left at home, but she’s practically bedridden.” The host whispered, ”Perhaps, there’s not much money for medical expenses...”

”I understand!” Su Yang looked at the patient and said softly, ”Don’t worry, I will cure you.”
