Chapter 288: Secret Contact and Discussions of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Superior golden silkworm Xiao Jin had been hovering above Miracle Doctor Xue’s villa. Of course, Miracle Doctor Xue was aware of it.

He was the miracle doctor of Huaxia. His intelligence was unparalleled. Miracle Doctor Xue came to the same conclusion upon seeing Xiao Jin last night: Miao Fenghuang had sent someone here.

Miao Fenghuang was passionate like fire. Miracle Doctor Xue knew she would retaliate when Ling Yun had suppressed the heart-devouring Gu insect.

Miracle Doctor Xue had thought that Miao Fenghuang would come for him personally. He had planned to admit his wrongdoing, apologize to Miao Fenghuang and beg her to retrieve her personal superior golden silkworm.

Moreover, they had been fighting in the dark for more than forty years. Both of them had not been living well.

Miracle Doctor Xue was at a ripe old age. His wife had already passed away. He had no more energy to fight Miao Fenghuang.

Miracle Doctor Xue knew that the person who appeared was not Miao Fenghuang herself when he saw Xiao Jin. Her personal superior silkworm was inside him!

Miao Fenghuang was the holy virgin from Miaojiang. They specialized in poison and were traditionally lived secluded from the world.

Miracle Doctor Xue was prepared to subdue Miao Xiaomiao and send her back as a warning if she attacked Ling Yun or him. He did not want her life.

Such was the good nature of Miracle Doctor Xue.

However, Miracle Doctor Xue’s face changed drastically when he heard that Miao Xiaomiao looked exactly like Ning Er.

Miracle Doctor Xue got up with his body trembling slightly. His eyebrows and beard twitched involuntarily. His eyes filled with shock and remorse.

“Could it be that Fenghuang...”

“Grandpa, what are you two doing? You were just staring at each other and then you jumped up suddenly.” Xue Meining finished her call and groaned with dissatisfaction at Miracle Doctor Xue.

That startled Ling Yun. He had only just realized that Miracle Doctor Xue was using telepathy to communicate with him.

Oh my gosh, Grandpa Xue saw through my telepathy, but I couldn’t...

Miracle Doctor Xue was embarrassed by his agitation but quickly recovered his calm. He sat back onto the sofa as if nothing had happened.

“Ning Er, what did you order?” Ling Yun diverted Xue Meining’s attention to himself to allow time for Miracle Doctor Xue to recover.

“I ordered what you like to eat. A lot of it...” Xue Meining squinted at Ling Yun and naturally settled herself beside Ling Yun.

Ling Yun gave a slight gulp. “How do you know what I like to eat?”

“Not telling!” teased Xue Meining as she lifted her chin proudly.

It was not unusual for her to know what Ling Yun liked. She had sat with Qin Qiuyue on Sunday with their hands clasped firmly together and had chatted until the sundown.

“Big Brother Yun, I didn’t give you a tour of my house the last time you came over since you were busy treating my grandpa. I’ll show you around now...”

Restless and bored, Xue Meining poked Ling Yun’s arms and pushed herself from the sofa.

Ling Yun acceded. It was best to give Miracle Doctor Xue some time alone to calm his nerves.

“Big Brother Yun, I will bring you to my home theater first. It is better than being in the movies. Oh, we should single out a room in your villa for movies as well...”

“Okay, okay, whatever you want...”

The most important stop was Xue Meining’s bedroom. She had insisted on the same interior design for Mansion Number One.

The final stop was Miracle Doctor Xue’s study.

“Oh my god, so many medical books...”

A large collection of Chinese and Western medical books were neatly stacked on the shelves, which Ling Yun could not help but marvel at.

It was simply a miniature medical book treasury, not a study.

“Hehe, see that? This is my grandpa’s treasured collection of medical classics. Feel free to borrow any of them. Also, not anyone can just come in like that!” Xue Meining looked at Ling Yun and laughed.

As the saying went, no one should enter a man’s study or a lady’s boudoir easily.

“Big Brother Yun, don’t take these medical books lightly. Some of them are really valuable and are the only copies existing in the world. My grandpa spent a lot of effort in getting them...”

Ling Yun nodded in agreement. Xue Meining was speaking the truth.

“Compendium of Materia Medica”, “The Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic”, “Spiritual Pivot”, “Plain Questions”, “The Yellow Emperor’s Canon of Eighty-One Difficult Issues”, “Theory of Acupuncture”, “Pulse Classics”, etc...

Ling Yun swept his gaze through them and found many titles that he possessed as well.

Of course, there were many more medical books here than on his shelf. There was even a row of identical books but with different packaging and style.

Perhaps I will borrow a few books from Grandpa Xue later...

Ling Yun had been too busy to read these past few days. Apart from cultivation, he had been in fights. He also had to focus on his studies and had not even paid attention to where Zhuang Meifeng had placed his own books.

Ling Yun was in awe of mysterious Traditional Chinese Medicine. It wasn’t by chance that Ling Yun had become the genius of the Cultivation World. He had an innate aptitude and enhanced it by studying the “Spiritual Pivot”.

Ling Yun was rather surprised when he found the same “Spiritual Pivot” in Huaxia. Miracle Doctor Xue and Xue Meining knew about Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot as well. Was this all a coincidence?

What kind of connection did the two world have? What were their mysteries and secrets? Why was he sent to Earth when he failed his Tribulation?

These were the biggest questions in Ling Yun’s mind. He needed to gradually unveil the mysteries of this world through his own cultivation!

“Big Brother Yun, what are you thinking about?”

Ling Yun fell silent again and Xue Meining’s romantic view of Ling Yun took over. She thought that Ling Yun was awestruck by the sheer number of books.

He was sensitive and eager to learn. It was definitely a trait that everyone would admire.

Ling Yun smiled and caressed Xue Meining’s silky hair. “Ning Er, do you like to study medicine?” He stroked her eyebrows softly.

Xue Meining’s body shuddered from the gesture. She said softly, “That goes without saying. Our family has been in Chinese medicine for generations. We help the ill and wounded.”

“That’s great to know. I will teach you the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot then!”

“Thank you, Big Brother Yun! Don’t forget to teach me some martial arts too!” Xue Meining became extremely happy.

“Haha! Of course! Otheriwse, you won’t be able to use the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot!” Ling Yun grinned and turned serious. “Ning Er, do you know how tough it is to master the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot?”

“How can that be, Big Brother Yun? It didn’t seem difficult at all when you were using it.” Xue Meining was taken aback.

“That’s where you are wrong, Ning Er. The Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot is infinitely harder than what you think! I am just very familiar with it!” Ling Yun shook his head in disagreement.

“Ling Yun is right!” Miracle Doctor Xue appeared out of nowhere and nodded. “The most difficult part of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot lies in its application for diseases of different natures. We have to find the meridian and acupuncture points for different needles and also have to take into account the order of implementing and extracting the needles.”

“There are numerous types of diseases and every type of disease is different. Therefore, the acupuncture points to be treated are also different. Other than that, there are also different orders for these implementations. There may only be nine needles, but there are millions of ways to use it. Ning Er, your Big Brother Yun is a medical genius. You have a lot to learn from him...”

“Grandpa, you are embarrassing me. I am not as good as you say! I apologize for not recognizing who you are the last time we met. I am really humbled in your presence.”

Miracle Doctor Xue smiled. “There is a saying that whoever has the greatest power is the teacher. You are so well-versed in the deployment of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot. Ling Yun, you are definitely the best Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor in the whole of Huaxia!”

Ling Yun was indifferent to Miracle Doctor Xue’s words of praise. After all, he was unfit to sit on the throne if he only knew the usage of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot. Of course, if he included the art of Talismans, it would be a different story.

What was more, once Ling Yun managed to reach the Qi Cultivation stage, he would be able to use the Five Elemental Vessel Seal and the Five Elemental God Acupuncture. Even in the Cultivation World, one would be invincible if one could treat diseases using the human body’s Five Elements, which mutually generated and restrict each other!

“Big Brother Yun, is this true?” Xue Meining’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Grandpa Xue is exaggerating my capabilities, but I think... it’s somewhat correct” Ling Yun said bluntly.

Xue Meining giggled while Miracle Doctor Xue nodded in agreement.

“Alright, they have brought the food over. Ning Er, get the two bottles of good wine that I have kept for thirty years. We will celebrate tonight!”
