Chapter 257: Chapter 0257: Immortal Methods (19th Update)
Chu Ge didn’t bother with them anymore. He showed off his skills solely to catch the ear of the great families in Beijing through the Nangong siblings, paving an invisible path for his future journey to Beijing.
Otherwise, why would Chu Ge have allowed them to come to the manor?
"Close your eyes and bear with it for a while." Chu Ge glanced at Huo Tianqian and commanded softly.
Huo Tianqian dared not disobey; he quickly closed his eyes and clenched his teeth tightly, seemingly preparing for the pain that was about to come.
"Go." Chu Ge uttered lightly, and the White Dragon hovering in the sky suddenly charged towards Huo Tianqian.
"Boom—"
A muffled sound echoed as the entire White Dragon transformed into a vast amount of white fog, enveloping Huo Tianqian within.
"Let’s go have some tea first." Just as the Nangong siblings were wide-eyed, ready to observe Chu Ge’s next move, Chu Ge suddenly smiled slightly and led the way out of the pavilion.
...
The two exchanged glances and followed Chu Ge.
The manor was enveloped by Spiritual Energy, naturally affecting the water here, which also bore a layer of Spiritual Energy. Watching the white fog that condensed and lingered inside her cup, Nangong Man Sha couldn’t help but exclaim once again.
She had traveled throughout Big River in these past years, and as a direct descendant of the Nangong Family, she had nearly tasted every famous tea in Huaxia. Yet, none could compare to the tea in her cup.
"Mr. Chu, may I ask, what tea is this?"
"Just ordinary Pu’er." Chu Ge smiled slightly and pointed to the dense white fog around: "It’s just that the water used for brewing is different. This manor is congested with Spiritual Energy, and the water naturally contains quite a bit of it."
However, before she could calm down and savor the tea, a heart-wrenching scream from Huo Tianqian suddenly erupted from the pavilion.
Nangong Yunhai couldn’t help but look at Chu Ge with a puzzled and alarmed expression.
"Don’t look at me with that kind of gaze." Chu Ge put down his teacup, slightly frowned, and said: "You think I find Huo Tianqian useless and am preparing to dispose of him? I haven’t reached that point yet."
He then pointed towards the pavilion and said: "At this moment, he must be feeling both pain and itchiness, unbearable to the point of death, which is why he is screaming like that. It’ll be over soon."
Hearing this explanation, although they still didn’t understand what exactly happened, the siblings didn’t ask further questions.
Finally, Chu Ge spoke again: "Miss Man Sha, you coming to Shanghai personally must be for more than just seeking me out, right?"
Under such circumstances, Nangong Man Sha lost her mood for jest and looked at Chu Ge: "That’s not entirely true. Half of the reason I’m here is indeed because of Mr. Chu."
"To treat the Old Master?" Chu Ge raised an eyebrow at Nangong Man Sha.
"Of course, you promised me personally on the cruise ship," Nangong Man Sha said with a light laugh, covering her mouth: "I presume that the famous Mr. Chu in Shanghai wouldn’t go back on his word to a young lady like me?"
"Sure, don’t worry about that. I will go to Beijing, but not now. There are still some matters I need to attend to in Shanghai." Chu Ge’s eyes suddenly revealed a trace of coldness: "And as Miss Man Sha has seen, no matter what, I need to visit Su City."
"Of course, there’s no rush for Beijing," Nangong Man Sha said: "As long as Mr. Chu remembers this matter."
Watching the two converse softly, Nangong Yun Hai attempted to interject several times but held back.
Finally, as they both paused, Nangong Yunhai couldn’t contain himself any longer and said, "Mr. Chu... I admit, your skills are formidable, to the point of being despairing. But what we, the heads of these families, need isn’t a fighter or a bodyguard. What we need is Medical Skill!"
Clearly, Nangong Yunhai didn’t believe that Chu Ge’s medical skills were as miraculous as the rumors suggested.
"Yun Hai!" Nangong Man Sha chided him, but didn’t add much more.
After all, intelligence is just intelligence and never as credible as seeing with one’s own eyes. Moreover, when it comes to treating the old master, nothing can be taken lightly, so Nangong Man Sha couldn’t fully trust Chu Ge either.
"Medical skill?" Chu Ge sipped his tea, suddenly smiled, and said, "Just wait."
"Wait?" Nangong Yunhai frowned. "Wait for what?"
"Wait for Huo Tianqian."
After saying these four words, Chu Ge spoke no more and continued quietly sipping his tea.
Nangong Yunhai was discontent with his demeanor but the speed of Chu Ge’s previous actions had left him with too much psychological shadow, so he didn’t dare say much at this time.
About ten minutes passed before the screams in the pavilion gradually faded and finally, silence reigned.
"After such torment, has he finally been set free?" Nangong Yunhai coldly sneered.
Clearly, he thought that Chu Ge had simply been torturing Huo Tianqian and had ultimately killed him.
Chu Ge glanced at him, didn’t speak, but called toward the pavilion: "If you’re healed, hurry up and come over!"
The thick fog dispersed, and a figure ran out from the pavilion and — "plop" — knelt in front of Chu Ge.
"Huo Tianqian, thanks to Mr. Chu for giving me a new life!"
"This... this... how is this possible!"
Nangong Yunhai’s eyes widened, incredulous at the scene before him.
Now, Huo Tianqian looked completely transformed. His complexion was radiant, his spirits high, and both his arms dangled healthily at his sides.
"No, this absolutely can’t be, it must be twins—yes, Huo Tianqian must have had a hidden twin!"
Finally, as if he had remembered something, Nangong Yunhai pointed at Huo Tianqian and yelled, "Do you think you can deceive me with such simple tricks? Tell the truth, are you Huo Tianqian’s brother or his twin? You must be twins, both of you — no, a pair of twins!"
The sight before him was beyond Nangong Yunhai’s understanding, and he could only come up with what seemed a reasonable explanation to convince himself.
"Young Master Nangong, I am indeed Huo Tianqian. Mr. Chu has methods akin to those of an immortal, beyond ordinary people’s imagination!" Huo Tianqian looked at Nangong Yunhai and solemnly said.
Recalling the recent scene, his body involuntarily shuddered.
In the white fog just now, he had watched his own bones grow, his veins and muscles gradually coating his skeleton. The bizarre sensation of transformation occurring in his own body was enough to drive an ordinary person insane.
Additionally, the indistinguishable itching and pain, if Huo Tianqian’s willpower hadn’t been strong enough, he might have already collapsed!
