It was indeed a tricky matter to handle.
Fortunately, Xu Fei was there, as most people would have been helpless.
Once Xu Fei decided to act, he was fully in the zone.
After taking out his silver needles, Xu Fei followed the body’s acupoint pathways, starting from Su Yu’s heart meridian, guiding the needle all the way to the crown of her head.
He then channelled his yang energy into her, ensuring Su Yu’s life was safeguarded.
With the yang energy in play, dealing with the turbid qi became effortless.
In the blink of an eye, the yang energy had completely devoured the turbid qi in Su Yu’s heart meridian.
Initially, as Xu Fei applied the needles starting from her heart meridian, some physical contact was inevitable.
This led the onlooker, Su Ya, to mistakenly think Xu Fei was taking advantage.
Only later did Su Ya realise that Xu Fei wasn’t just an antique shop owner, he seemed to be a doctor too.
After finishing, Xu Fei retrieved the silver needles one by one.
When he removed the final needle from her heart meridian, the Taotie jade pendant that clung to Su Yu’s body instantly fell off.
With a clatter, it hit the ground and shattered into two pieces.
From the break in the jade pendant, one could see that, despite its glossy surface, the interior had been riddled with holes by the turbid qi.
This was proof of what the old abbot had said, that the jade pendant could temporarily protect Su Yu’s life.
Without this Taotie jade pendant, Su Yu’s body might have been consumed by the turbid qi in the same way.
“Your problem is resolved, put your clothes back on!”
Xu Fei said this with his eyes still closed, before turning away.
After Xu Fei stopped, Su Yu indeed felt that the strange, shadowy sensation that had lingered in her body was finally gone.
However, despite knowing her life was no longer in danger, Su Yu’s face showed no trace of joy.
After all, throughout the entire treatment, Xu Fei hadn’t once looked at her directly.
This shattered the confidence Su Yu had always had in herself, plunging her into despair.
“It seems he really has no feelings for me, otherwise he wouldn’t…”
Though Su Yu didn’t voice the rest, her eyes betrayed profound disappointment.
“I’ve put my clothes on, please treat my sister too!”
Hearing this, Xu Fei turned back, only to see Su Ya already reaching to untie her pyjama waistband.
“What are you doing?”
“Following my sister’s example, don’t you need to… for treatment?”
“No, no, no… your sister’s case was special, not every treatment requires undressing, be serious!”
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Xu Fei kept a stern expression throughout.
He placed his fingers on Su Ya’s wrist, deciding that, for female patients, he’d avoid using his clairvoyant vision whenever possible in the future.
It was a bit too awkward otherwise.
Through pulse diagnosis, Xu Fei, even without the aid of his clairvoyant vision, could clearly sense the turbid qi lurking in Su Ya’s body.
Thankfully, only a few hours had passed since Su Ya had been afflicted with the turbid qi.
