Lei Qianjue's action left Ye Fan stunned!
"Mr. Lei, what are you doing? Please get up," Ye Fan only taught Lei Qianjue the Ghost Valley Thirteen Needles because he wanted Lei Qianjue to help treat his grandfather.
Lei Qianjue was a highly respected medical leader throughout Huaxia whom Ye Fan had always respected. Ye Fan was afraid of shortening his life span by having Lei Qianjue bow to him as his master.
When Ye Fan tried to help Lei Qianjue up, Lei Qianjue's attitude was very firm, "Master! Please don't refuse. You should also know the value and rarity of the Ghost Valley Thirteen Needles, an extraordinary method capable of reversing fate. Since you have passed the technique on to me, from today, I am Young Master Ye's disciple... I have also studied the cases Young Master Ye previously treated and indeed feel inferior, hoping for Master's continued guidance..."
Lei Qianjue's gesture somewhat made Ye Fan smile bitterly.
Being only in his early twenties, yet he had taken a seventy-year-old man as his disciple.
Seeing Lei Qianjue's determination, Ye Fan did not refuse anymore, "Mr. Lei, please stand up first. It doesn't matter what you call me in private! But when others are around, just call me Ye Fan, so as not to reveal anything!"
"Yes, Master!" Lei Qianjue stood respectfully to one side, completely resembling a well-behaved elementary student, "Then, regarding Master's condition, how should I explain it to General Yu and Yixue?"
Ye Fan furrowed his brows in thought. Revealing his condition was definitely not an option now, but saying that he couldn't be treated would worry the girls too, "Well, just tell them that my condition is slowly improving, that my brain and nerves haven't been injured, and that full recovery is entirely possible, only requiring time for recuperation..."
A profound look flashed in Ye Fan's eyes!
This news would surely throw those who were against the Ye Family into a panic.
The idea that the Ye Family's fool might be cured meant that there was still hope for the Ye Family's revival. They would surely start probing him, attempting to attack him again.
Ye Fan, on the other hand, would remain hidden in the shadows, tracing the clues to find the real culprit behind the scenes, seeking justice for the wronged souls of the Ye Family.
"Yes, Master!"
...
Outside the bedroom door where Su Yixue resided, Yu Linglong and Su Yixue were both present.
The two women anxiously looked towards the door, waiting for Lei Qianjue's diagnosis.
Su Yixue's fingers were nervously entwined, thinking of Ye Fan's valiant performance in bed the previous night, she had some doubts. Ye Fan's demeanor last night didn't look like that of a fool at all!
But why hasn't Ye Fan woken up yet?
"Hmph! A bunch of good-for-nothings; so many people tried to block Lei Qianjue, and they all got taken out in one fell swoop... Lei Qianjue's diagnosis is out, saying that Ye Fan has a complete hope of awakening, that with proper care, he could recover very soon! What's the use of playing when Ye Fan recovers?"
A furious Elder Zhang slammed the documents in his hand onto the floor, his face darkening.
Everyone knew of Ye Fan's talent five years ago.
At fifteen, he was already a grandmaster level martial artist, a feat unsurpassed in the whole of Great Xia. In intelligence, martial arts, or medicine, he was an absolute peak.
Ye Fan was the dragon of the Ye Family, and with him, the Ye Family would soar to great heights in no time.
"Elder, what do we do now? If we know that Ye Fan can awaken, then others will definitely know as well! Those who have already broken away from the Ye Family, once they get this news, they might side with the Ye Family again. Then our plans will become even more difficult to execute!"
The middle-aged man standing beside the Elder also looked rather uneasy.
After all, he was directly planning all the actions in Cloud City.
Whether it was to suppress the Su Family or to intercept Lei Qianjue, both attempts had failed. It seemed he had to take a trip to Cloud City himself now!
"Hmph! You still have the sense to realize this? What else is there to do? If we're going to do it, then we'll do it thoroughly, leaving no troubles behind!" Elder Zhang's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent, "Our deeds, once exposed, will make us all dead men when the Ye Family strikes back!"
"Make sure the job is done cleanly! This time, you go to Cloud City yourself to make arrangements. Choose some experts for the mission. Those below the Control Realm don't need to go... There's no rush for the moment, but we must be meticulous and safe!"
Elder Zhang heaved a long sigh and murmured to himself, "Ye Changfeng, you forced me into this. Don't blame me!"
...
In Cloud City, inside Lei Qianjue's car, while he was hurriedly making his way to Ye Changfeng's house, Lei Qianjue was incessantly calling, "Old Li, are you free tonight? Come to Cloud City, have a drink with Old Ye! Yes, that's right, I mean Ye Changfeng... What am I doing in Cloud City? Treating Ye Fan of course... Stop asking why, just tell me if you're coming for drinks?"
"Since Divine Doctor Lei has personally invited me, how could I not come?" In a courtyard somewhere in the Southwest, a sharp-eyed old man hung up the phone, a glint of keenness flashed in his eyes, "Lei Qianjue is holding such a high-profile gathering, what does this mean? Could it be that Ye Fan is showing signs of awakening?"
"If that's the case, then the Li Family must reconsider their choice!"
"Old Zhou, come over for a drink!"
"Old Lü!"
Lei Qianjue was like a social networking fanatic. It was only a twenty-minute drive from Su Yixue's place to the Ye Family Courtyard, yet Lei Qianjue managed to call nearly all the old friends he could summon in just two or three dozen phone calls...
