63: Needle
After listening, Yun Yi's face showed surprise, not expecting that Long Yuan could propose an unprecedented treatment method for large-area burn patients, and that it was valued by the Luo Family and requested for cooperation, which made him feel extremely incredible!
Although Long Yuan emphasized that this treatment method was learned from a deceased reclusive elder, in Yun Yi's opinion, even if it were true, Long Yuan being able to learn such a healing art at such a young age was nothing short of miraculous!
One must know that, by the time Long Yuan was learning this healing art, those children of his age were probably still playing and frolicking around, right?
"Are you confident you can cure those three women?" Yun Yi asked.
"As long as the Luo Family can cooperate with all the conditions, there should be over ninety percent certainty..." Long Yuan replied.
"How long will it take? Will it affect the preparation and competition here?"
"No, the task of cultivating new skin can be handed over to the Luo Family Hospital. Once cultivated, the skin graft surgery can be done, which is estimated to be completed in one day and will not have any impact!"
"I wonder if I can come and watch?" Yun Yi suddenly said.
"Teacher also wants to watch?" Long Yuan was startled.
"That's right! During the preparation period, I am only responsible for you and Luo Ying, so no accidents can happen. Moreover, you are still too young, and cooperating with a large Family like the Luo Family might mean the positions of both parties are not equal. You will definitely suffer losses then, but if I am there, I believe it will be much better!" Yun Yi analyzed.
"Teacher's words are reasonable! Then I thank Teacher in advance!"
"Haha, Teacher, I also have selfish motives, wanting to see what this healing art is truly like, so you don't have to thank me..."
"That's just a minor Dao, I just hope Teacher doesn't laugh at me then..." Long Yuan said with a wry smile, but in his heart, he was thinking, 'Teacher, you are probably thinking of obtaining this healing art to exchange for contribution points at the Shadow Moon Hall, right? Also, in your opinion, any benefits obtained from the Luo Family will ultimately be yours, so you definitely want to help me get more benefits from the Luo Family...'
The two settled the matter, and Yun Yi left to discuss the purchase of Nian Needle with Yun Feiyan. When Yun Feiyan heard that the pair of Nian Needle would cost one hundred superior xuan stone, she felt a bit unable to make the decision herself, so the two went together to find Lu Shijie. They originally thought there would be a relatively difficult persuasion process, but unexpectedly, Lu Shijie, upon hearing about it, immediately made a decision without even thinking, ordering that pair of Nian Needle for Long Yuan in the name of Fengyang No. 1 High School...
It must be said that one hundred superior xuan stone is a large investment even for Fengyang No. 1 High School. Even if they can earn a lot of money by selling those four pseudo-Yellow Rank Cultivation Technique, each Cultivation Technique only brings in one hundred Medium Grade xuan stone, and one superior xuan stone is equivalent to one hundred Medium Grade xuan stone, totaling ten thousand Medium Grade xuan stone, which is a hundredfold price difference. Therefore, it is far from enough to cover this cost. So why did Lu Shijie decide to buy that pair of Nian Needle?
In fact, apart from those grand and official reasons, Lu Shijie had already learned a secret piece of information about Long Yuan from Geng Yun a few days ago: that Long Yuan was very likely an illegitimate son of the Emperor Ming! Or at least an illegitimate son of a direct line prince, and the Xuanhuang Aura on his body was extremely rich, with great potential, and he might even become the wielder of the Xuanhuang Sword in the future!
Geng Yun's purpose in telling Lu Shijie this was naturally to have him take care of and protect Long Yuan at school. Upon learning this information, Lu Shijie was instantly overjoyed, feeling as if he had been hit by a big pie falling from the sky. He was just wondering how to curry favor with Long Yuan when the opportunity arrived so quickly. So, he quickly made the decision that even if Fengyang No. 1 High School's finances would be in deficit this year, he would still order that pair of Nian Needle for Long Yuan. As for the deficit, it would be borne by the entire school anyway, but his relationship with Long Yuan would be able to advance further. He was determined to cling to this thick royal thigh from now on! This was much better than him relying on the Yun Family! After all, relying on others truly hurt his self-esteem too much!
Long Yuan had not left the training room just now, but was Cultivating by himself inside. To be honest, the young Martial Apprentice outside had already been left far behind by him; he could take their lives with just a slight thought, so there was no need to train with them at all.
This training room happened to be good, and he practiced his boxing and sword techniques thoroughly, improving his overall state and dispelling the fatigue from last night's hard practice at West Lake...
"Long Yuan, open the door!" Yun Yi's voice came from outside.
Long Yuan heard him, put away his sword, and opened the door, finding Yun Yi, Yun Feiyan, and Lu Shijie standing outside. He quickly let them in...
After Lu Shijie entered, he stared intently at Long Yuan, feeling the rich "nobility" emanating from him after his recent Cultivation. His heart immediately surged like ocean waves, and he secretly cursed himself for being blind before. With such rich nobility, what other identity could Long Yuan possibly have?
At the very least, he was an illegitimate son of a direct line prince; it was not impossible for him to be an illegitimate son of the Emperor Ming!
Such a treasure had fallen within his school and he had quite a few interactions with him, yet he had to wait for Geng Yun to remind him to know. It showed how blind he had been before...
"Long Yuan... good child, look what this is?" Lu Shijie took out a package from his person and said as if presenting a treasure.
This scene stunned both Yun Yi and Yun Feiyan, because they had never seen Lu Shijie be so kind, friendly, or even like a fawning dog towards anyone else...
Long Yuan recognized the package as being from the Martial Arts Home at a glance, because he had previously ordered an Acquired High Grade Xuan Sword from there, which cost ten thousand low-grade xuan stone. The packaging style of that sword was very similar to the one in front of him, only differing in size. Looking at Lu Shijie's expression, he could easily guess what it was, so he feigned surprise and said, "Principal, could it be... the pair of Nian Needle that Yun Teacher mentioned?!"
"Smart! I knew it, Long Yuan's Soul Power value is 100, and his Comprehension Ability is maxed out, he's definitely a top-tier smart person. See, he guessed it right away!" Lu Shijie said happily.
He placed the box on a stand by the wall, first peeled off the outer packaging, then put on white gloves, carefully opened the metal box inside, then slowly opened the lid, and gently removed a layer of protective material inside. He then saw two needle-shaped leather packages tightly embedded side by side in two grooves...
Taking a deep breath, he picked up one leather package with one hand, gently pinching the head, and with the other hand, gently pulled off the leather casing. A thin, long Nian Needle was then presented before the four of them!
"Hoo--" All four let out a soft breath; the process of taking out the needle just now had indeed held their breath for a bit too long...
Lu Shijie's eyes gleamed. To be honest, this was his first time holding such a Nian weapon in his hands. It felt extremely light, not much heavier than a strand of hair, as if a single breath could make it fly!
The Nian Needle was completely faint and seamless, appearing a subtle grayish-white, able to blend well into its surroundings. If not observed carefully, it would be hard to notice, and if moving fast, it might be impossible to detect at all...
Lu Shijie pinched the Nian Needle and jabbed it into the training room wall. It easily pierced through! As if the wall was as soft as tofu...
"Hiss--" The four of them gasped again...
Lu Shijie then took an ordinary Xuan Sword and lightly jabbed it, piercing straight through...
The four couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air!
No wonder it was so expensive; there truly was a reason for its expensiveness. Lu Shijie felt his hand holding the Nian Needle trembling slightly...
He forcibly suppressed the violent pounding in his heart, gently put the Nian Needle back into its leather casing, and then placed it back into the groove. Finally, he let out a long breath and laughed, "Excellent! This pair of Nian Needle is what I specifically bought for you to use! I believe they will unleash their maximum power in the hands of a noble Mind Power Master like you, and win the highest honor for our Fengyang No. 1 High School!!!"
