Upon seeing the palm prints on the faces of the five burly men.

Liu Zixuan laughed!

The man in the jacket was stunned!

The elderly woman was shocked!

None of them had expected that a seemingly ordinary young man could act so swiftly, even when the burly men were extremely tense and on guard, yet they were still hit by the motionless Liu Zixuan!

Really, there's always someone better, making comparisons is infuriating!

To know, Liu Zixuan's age was about the same as the man in the jacket; Liu Zixuan seemed like an experienced man of the world, while the man in the jacket seemed like an immature child.

Liu Zixuan blew on his right hand, chuckling lightly, "I really wonder what your faces are made of, my hand kinda hurts!"

"Gh… Ghost!"

The original leader of the burly men showed a horrified expression and immediately collapsed onto the ground.

They hadn't even seen Liu Zixuan make a move, yet they were beaten!

Liu Zixuan lowered his head and raised his eyebrows, "Have you ever seen such a handsome ghost?"

"Don't… don't come over here!" The burly men were genuinely scared.

"Wouldn't it be nice to just deal with you on this moonless, windy night…"

"Mother! Quick, let's run, guys!"

Upon hearing Liu Zixuan's words, the burly men dared not stay any longer; without saying a word, they scrambled and rolled outwards, not stopping or hesitating for a second!

Actually, they were just laborers here, found by the man in the jacket who gave them some money to scare Liu Zixuan!

Where do they normally see such a powerful existence like this? Seeing this, there's no way to win, so they had to run!

Watching them flee embarrassedly, Liu Zixuan shouted, "Hey, I just said, whoever runs is a coward!"

"Grandfather, we're wrong!"

The burly men, worried that such an impressive person as Liu Zixuan would still trouble them, simply acted like cowards. Running while shouting, they soon disappeared!

Liu Zixuan shrugged, giving a helpless laugh.

Actually, Liu Zixuan had previously seen some of these burly men at the Ghost Market, helping stall owners move things.

The man in the jacket and the elderly woman were clearly not locals, so they must have been hired.

Knowing they were ordinary people, Liu Zixuan hadn't troubled them further, only giving each of them a slap as a lesson!

Then he looked at the man in the jacket and the elderly woman over there.

Seeing Liu Zixuan walk towards them step by step, the man in the jacket guarded in front of the elderly woman, fear in his eyes, yet still protecting his relative!

"If you want revenge, just target me alone, don't harm my grandmother!"

"Using tricks to snatch the Nether Spirit Needle from my hands, didn't you anticipate this moment?" Liu Zixuan folded his arms, yet didn't continue advancing.

"I…" The man in the jacket was at a loss for words, "The Nether Spirit Needle is a lifesaving treasure, I wanted to buy it but you kept raising the price, so I had no choice but to steal it!"

"That's actually a reasonable explanation!" Liu Zixuan's expression suddenly changed, saying word by word, "But you just took it from the wrong person."

"What are you going to do?" The man in the jacket asked fearfully.

"Young man, it was wrong of us to steal your thing."

At this moment, the elderly woman slowly approached with her wooden cane, "If you really want to vent your anger, take it out on this old woman. Xi'Er is still young, he shouldn't suffer so much so early!"

With what was originally a bellyful of anger, hearing the elderly woman's words, Liu Zixuan's anger vanished into thin air!

Instead, he felt some pity for the two of them, and was moved by their family bond!

Even knowing Liu Zixuan's terrifying prowess, the man in the jacket still protected the elderly woman, and seeing Liu Zixuan's anger, the elderly woman stood up even more to protect her grandson!

In this world, only emotions are indestructible!

Liu Zixuan had never received the warmth of family affection since he was a child, and seeing this scene now, he was somewhat touched.

With a helpless sigh, he said, "Dear grandmother, things should match their need, but one must also pay attention to ways and means. If you truly had such abilities, no one would say anything if you snatched it from me, but being disadvantaged and still doing this is just asking for trouble!"

The elderly woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "These truths I, who have lived half my life, of course understand, but Xi'Er has contracted a strange disease and must have this Nether Spirit Needle for treatment. Originally, we hoped to obtain it at the auction, but unexpectedly encountered you!"

"Maybe... this is Xi'Er's fate, destined not to live beyond this year!"

Liu Zixuan raised his eyebrows, took a step forward, and grabbed the wrist of the man in the jacket.

"What are you doing! Let go of me!" The man in the jacket panicked immediately!

"Xi'Er, don't speak!" The elderly woman frowned and stared at Liu Zixuan, she could feel that Liu Zixuan meant no harm!

After taking his pulse, Liu Zixuan's eyebrows furrowed into a frown, releasing the man's wrist, he then looked at the elderly woman and said, "Is this Scattered Spirit?"

"You know about it?" The elderly woman asked, shocked.

"How could he possibly have such a disease at his age?" Liu Zixuan first nodded, then scrutinized the man in the jacket, and closely examined the elderly woman!

"Are you from a National Doctor family?" Liu Zixuan asked.

"Yes." It seemed the elderly woman was reluctant to reveal their identity, but since Liu Zixuan already asked, and even recognized the grandson's illness at a glance, she had to explain everything.

With a slight sigh, she said, "Medicine Saint Li Zhongshan is indeed my ancestor. Xi'Er's full name is Li Ruqi, considered the ninety-sixth generation descendant of the Medicine Saint lineage."

Liu Zixuan immediately stood respectfully, holding his hand in obeisance to the elderly woman, "It seems this junior was rude earlier!"

"From what you said, you are also a National Doctor?"

"Correct!" Liu Zixuan replied.

"Which lineage do you belong to?"

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "Not any specific lineage, but among the medical skills I've learned, there are essential elements passed down from the Medicine Saint!"

"I didn't expect there would be such a young person studying National Doctor practices!" The elderly woman murmured wistfully.

Liu Zixuan smiled, "In that case, Li Ruqi's Scattered Spirit Disease should be due to long-term drug testing, right?"

"Indeed, generation after generation have upheld our ancestral mission, and it's the same for Xi'Er. However, he encountered an unheard-of miraculous drug some time ago, and failed to control it properly during testing, leading him to contract this strange disease called Scattered Spirit!" The elderly woman sighed.

"If you trust me, I could try to help cure him!"

Upon hearing Liu Zixuan's words, the elderly woman initially lifted her head in excitement but, after carefully examining the young Liu Zixuan, lowered her head again.
