Chapter 246: Chapter 266: Impossible! Absolutely Impossible! _1

Lin Chen turned his head in surprise; he hadn’t persuaded Leng Ying to join, had the Leng family voluntarily jumped in?

Xu Bin also looked somewhat astonished: "Was it your father’s decision?"

Leng Ying answered seriously: "Before, Lin Chen mentioned dealing with the Chu family. I had talked to my father about this matter. He said that if it’s merely a risky gamble, the risk would be too great, and the Leng family wouldn’t participate. But if we can decisively strike them down, then my Leng family will contribute a share."

After a pause, Leng Ying apologized to Lin Chen, saying, "You saved my father’s life. However, his decision must serve the whole family’s interests, so we can only act as icing on the cake and can’t provide timely help."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I understand; it’s already quite good to be able to put icing on the cake."

Xu Bin’s face also revealed a slightly relaxed smile: "Wei family, Xu family, Leng family, plus Lin Chen—a joint effort from all four sides. A full-fledged attack shouldn’t be a big problem. However, my words don’t count; it’s up to my father, the family head, to make the decision."

Lin Chen laughed, "No hurry, today is just a suggestion, and the specific intentions still need further discussion."

Xu Meiling suddenly spoke up, "Lin Chen, aren’t you on very good terms with Zuo Yingying? Why not persuade the Zuo family to join as well? If the Zuo family joins, half of the eight great families will participate, which would make it easier to deal with the Chu family."

Lin Chen smiled, "The Zuo family has no conflict with the Chu family and may not be willing to take the risk."

Xu Bin smiled, "Meiling is right; if the Zuo family is willing to join, this matter could be a done deal."

Lin Chen didn’t refute, simply replying with a smile, "I’ll ask them later."

Xu Bin asked, "If the Xu family is unwilling to participate and can only satisfy your first two conditions, will you still treat her illness?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen answered cleanly, "The third condition is actually a cooperation. If you’re unwilling, just pretend I didn’t say anything. But I can assure you, regardless of whether the Xu family or the Leng family participates, the Chu family will definitely be wiped out."

Xu Bin’s expression also eased somewhat, "Compared to your proposed cooperation, the loss of benefits from the second condition is insignificant. Fine, whether or not our Xu family eventually cooperates with you, I agree to the first two conditions right now."

Lin Chen smiled slightly, "Deal!"

Xu Bin took out his phone and said with a smile, "I’ll help you settle the first matter first, as a gesture of my sincerity. No matter how the treatment goes, we can still be friends."

Lin Chen didn’t stand on ceremony, after all, he had earned this favor through his own abilities, and the other party was just doing him a favor by helping to resolve the issue ahead of time.

"Okay."

Xu Bin asked for the contact information of the suppliers and went to the side to make a phone call.

It didn’t take long for Xu Bin to come back with a somewhat strange expression on his face.

Upon seeing Xu Bin’s expression, Lin Chen took the initiative to ask, "Is there any difficulty?"

Xu Bin shook his head, "There’s no difficulty, but my phone call was too late."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "What happened?"

Xu Bin replied, "I called the three suppliers, and their answers were the same. The entire stock has already been bought by someone else, and they even collected the payment. In other words, although the goods are still in their factories, they no longer belong to them."

Lin Chen frowned, "The Chu family?"

Xu Bin’s expression was subtle, and his eyes were deep, "No, it’s the Zuo family. It was Zuo Lin who made the deal."

Zuo Lin?

Zuo Yingying’s brother?

Xu Meiling widened her eyes, giving Lin Chen a strange look, "It must be Zuo Yingying. What is she trying to do?"

Lin Chen shook his head, slightly at a loss, "I don’t know. I never mentioned this to her... Forget it, since the Zuo family bought the medicine, I’ll ask Zuo Yingying later, and you won’t have to worry about this for now."

Xu Bin smiled, "Okay, if you need my help with this matter later, just let me know."

"Alright!"

Having the medicine in the hands of the Zuo family was preferable to it being controlled by the Chu family. Lin Chen calmed his emotions, "Anyway, let’s get back to the main topic. Today, I’ll give you acupuncture treatment and, by the way, take an apprentice."

Leng Ying curiously asked, "The technique you used in the operating room that day was the Returning Sky Needle, isn’t it?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes."

Leng Ying gave a thumbs up, "Although I didn’t understand it, I was genuinely shocked."

Pan Yonghe was called back, and besides Xu Meiling, the others entered a clean, tidy room.

Xu Bin removed his coat and trousers and lay on the bed.

Lin Chen took out his own silver needles, glanced at Pan Yonghe, and said lightly, "Watch carefully!"

Pan Yonghe sneered, "I’m watching."

Lin Chen said no more and cleanly inserted the needles into Xu Bin’s body, stimulating the corresponding acupoints with the Returning Sky Needle Technique.

After inserting only three needles, Pan Yonghe’s face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. He muttered in a low voice, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

When Lin Chen reached the seventh needle, he used his energy to guide the needle, and all seven silver needles inserted in Xu Bin’s body trembled simultaneously. They seemed to have come to life.

"Seven Stars In A Row!"

Pan Yonghe exclaimed, with eyes widened in shock. Looking at Lin Chen, his expression was filled with utter astonishment and disbelief.

"You really know the Returning Sky Needle Technique..."
