"Little Chen", Zhan Chen's grand mother called out happily after seeing Zhan Chen entering her room. A big smile appeared on her face after she noticed Zhan Chen.
"Good morning, grandma", Zhan Chen bowed his head towards his grandmother.
"Little Chen, how have you been? You seems to grow taller in these few days", she asked to Zhan Chen.
"Grandma, I am well. I am here to check upon you", Zhan Chen replied.
"Ah! How sweet. Little Chen is becoming more mature lately", the old lady smiled and looked towards Zhan Chen with adoring eyes.
The jaws of his uncles and his father dropped after they saw the smiling face of their mother. It had been ages since they saw her smile. She was always strict towards him. Now, Zhan Chen was making her smile just by saying some cheeky lines.
"Grandma, can you let me check your health?", Zhan Chen looked towards his grandmother.
The old lady who was still looking beautiful despite her aged appearance, became stunned for a moment after hearing Zhan Chen's words.
A smile appeared on her face after she looked at the earnest expression of Zhan Chen.
"It is not a problem but how are you going to check my health?", the old lady asked with a smile.
"Mother, little Chen is indeed somehow capable now in the alchemy. Please let him check your health", Zhan Chen's eldest aunt added from the side.
The old lady nodded her head after hearing her eldest daughter in law's words. "Little Chen, it is really hopeless. But if you still want to check my condition, then you can go ahead", she looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Grandma, don't worry. You just need to stretch your hand towards me and don't resist my essence energy from going inside your body", Zhan Chen spoke.
Zhan Chen's grandmother nodded her head and stretched out her hand towards Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen held her wrist and began to examine her body.
A frown appeared on his face after he started to examine her body. "What I checked with my soul consciousness was indeed true. Grandma is inflicted with a soul poison", Zhan Chen thought inside his mind.
"Let's see, what kind of poison it is?", Zhan Chen murmured and injected a strand of his essence energy inside the meridian of his grandmother. His expression changed after he touched the poison with his essence energy. He hurriedly took away the strand of his essnce energy which he had inserted inside the body of his grandmother.
"Little Chen, are you okay? How can you be so reckless. The poison inside my body is very potent", Zhan Chen's grandmother asked worriedly.
Expression of Li Qingzhao also changed after she heard the words of her mother-in-law. "Chen-er, are you alright?", she looked towards Zhan Chen in a worried tone. His threea unts also looked towards him in a worried look.
Zhan Chen took an entire minute to oust the poson from his body. His essence energy was connected to his body. So, it was natural that he would suffer a little.
"Everyone, no need to be worry. I am fine", Zhan Chen smiled and looked towards everyone.
"Little kid, have you managed to find out something?", the old woman who always stayed with his grandmother asked.
"Yes, I know what it is. It is fortunate that the cultivation of grandmother is somehow high. Otherwise, she couldn't have handled this poison for such a long time", Zhan Chen spoke.
Grandmother, have you ever bitten by a snake? A little snake with a silver coloured body?", Zhan Chen looked towards his grandmother.
The old lady felt confused as she recalled the past events of her life. "No, I couldn't recall any such incidents", she shook her head.
Zhan Chen frowned after seeing his grandmother shaking her head. Then, how do you get exposed to the poison of Tyrant silver snake?", Zhan Chen asked his grandmother.
"Tyrant silver snake!", Zhan Huan, the eldest uncle of Zhan Huan exclaimed as a worried look appeared on his mature face.
"Eldest brother, what is it? What is a Tyrant silver snake?", Zhan Long, the father of Zhan Chen asked his eldest brother.
"Tyrant silver snake! It is those bastards doing. Young miss, it is poison tower. Zhen family has a relationship with them", the old woman who always stayed with Zhan Chen's grandmother blurted out in an angered voice.
"Aunt Mumu, it doesn't matter now. Please restrain your anger. After coming here, I don't know I could go back ever again", Zhan Chen's grandmother sopke as a lost look appeared on her face.
"Grandma, it is alright. The poison of Tyrant silver snake is nothing. You have resisted for so long and thank you for your persistence. Now that I have found it, I can't let the poison stay inside your body", Zhan Chen spoke with a serious tone.
Zhan Chen's grandmother ft surrised after she heard Zhan Chen's words. A look of disbelief appeared in her eyes when she looked at Zhan Chen.
Zhan Chen smiled at her as he could understand why she was looking at him in disbelief. Because it is said that, the poison of Tyrant silver snake is incurable unless a miracle is happened. But, Zhan Chen was different. He had learned from the alchemy sage in his past life. So, it is not a problem for him to treat someone who is affected with the poison of a Tyrant silver snake.
"Send little Tao to get a set of silver needles. I will do an acupuncture treatment on grandmother", Zhan Chen looked towards his mother.
"No need, I am personally going to fetch the best set of needles", Zhan Fan, the second uncle of Zhan Chen spoke and hurriedly left the room.
A moment of silence followed his departure. "Senior Mumu, you are also injured, right?", Zhan Chen looked towards the old woman who always guarded his grandmother.
"Yes, but you don't need to worry about me. It is alright, if you can releive the young miss from her suffering", the old woman replied.
"Little Chen, can you really do it?", the grand mother of Zhan Chen looked towards him. Zhan Chen nodded his head confidentlyas he was completely sure of success.
A hopeful look appeared in the eyes of Zhan Chen's grand mother after he saw the confident look on Zhan Chen's face. Zhan Chen's father and Zhan Chen's eldest uncle also looked towards Zhan Chen with hopeful eyes.
Zhan Fan didn't take much time as he rushed back within half an hour. He handed over a box to Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen opened the box and nodded his head after seeing the fifty six silver needles lying in the box.
"Everyone, you have to wait outside as the poison of Tyrant silver snake had soul corroding property. You need to maintain at least twenty feet of distance", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Do we really have to move over?", Zhan Chen's third aunt muttered. "Third sister, let's go", Zhan Chen's eldest aunt held her hand and took her out of the wooden hut.
"Brat, be careful", Zhan Chen's father reminded before leaving. Before long only granny Mumu, his grandmother and Zhan Chen remained inside the room.
"Senior Mumu, you also have to leave", Zhan Chen looked towards the old woman who was standing nearby.
"Brat, be careful while treating young miss. I am leaving", the old woman spoke and left the room.
"Senior, wait a minute", Zhan Chen spoke. The old woman paused in her way after hearing Zhan Chen's words.
"Senior, tell someone to arrange a bathing tub for grand mother. It will be helpful in containing the spread of the poison", Zhan Chen spoke.
The old woman nodded her head and left the room. After sometime, some guards came with a bathing tub with them.
"Feel the bathing tub with water", Zhan Chen commanded and the Zhan family guards did as he commanded.
"You can leave. Maintain a minimum twenty feet distance from here ", Zhan Chen spoke. The guards bowed their heads towards Zhan Chen and Zhan Chen 's grandmother before leaving the room.
"Grand mother, please put away your clothes. Otherwise, I can't pierce your meridians", Zhan Chen spoke.
The old lady blushed a little after hearing the request of her grand son. "Is there no other way?", she looked towards Zhan Chen.
"Grand mother, you can relax. There is no one here. Moreover, you only need to put away your upper clothes. You can still put on your inner clothes", Zhan Chen looked towards his grandmother.
The old lady felt shy despite her age. But she still took away her clothes one by one. "Grandma most be a beauty at her prime", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
"Ok, enter the bath tub now", Zhan Chen spoke to his grandmother after she put off her clothes.
The grand mother of Zhan Chen nodded her head and tried to move from her sitting position. Her body was shaky as she had not moved from her bed since years. Zhan Chen helped her moving to the bath tub.
Then he took out the silver needles one by one. He generated his soul fire in a little amount and warmed the silver needles. The amount of his soul fire was so less that his grand mother couldn't see it but she could feel the heat. She looked towards Zhan Chen curiously but couldn't see anything.
Zhan Chen stopped after heating all the needles. He put the needles inside water to reduce the temperature. Then he took out the needles and started to insert them one by one inside his grandmother's meridians.
