Chapter 223: You damn kindness
P!
Before Qian Dajin could react, his hand was gone. He stared at Du Ge, feeling as if a stampede of ten thousand grass-mud horses was thundering through his heart.
Is this what you call 'everyone for me, and I for everyone'?
Is this kindness?
Are we not treating each other as humans anymore? We're all family here, a heads-up would have been nice, and it's not like I wouldn't have given it to you!
Damn it, I'm right-handed!
The lead guard disciple, holding the severed hand, was also dumbfounded.
Then, after examining the hand in his grasp and comparing it to Qian Dajin's wrist, he turned to Du Ge with a solemn expression and fervent eyes, bowing with his fists clasped: "Sir, your medical skills are truly remarkable! May I ask for your esteemed name and who you studied under?"
"You flatter me." Du Ge returned the gesture, "My name is Wang Chong, a disciple of Guan Kezheng from Qixing Mountain."
"Qixing Mountain?"
The guard disciple frowned slightly, glancing at his fellow disciples with an inquiring look.
Everyone shook their heads, clearly unfamiliar with the name, but this did not prevent them from respecting the medical skills.
In an instant, to be able to deftly remove someone's hand with bare hands, such a technique was nearly magical. If they could bring this person's medical skills into the Medical Immortal Sect, it would surely propel the sect's medical expertise forward by leaps and bounds.
The guard disciple stepped aside to open the mountain gate, saying respectfully: "Sir, please follow me."
"Little master, please." Du Ge was the picture of courtesy, "May I know your esteemed name?"
"No need for formality, my name is Sun He." The guard disciple stopped in his tracks and once again clasped his fists, "Sir, I will take you to meet our Sect Leader, who is an expert in surgery..."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by someone nearby: "Sun He, have you no shame? Your master clearly specializes in elixirs, my master is the one proficient in surgery."
"Your master clearly focuses on decoctions." Another person interrupted, "Sir, don't listen to them, come with me, my master is known as the Saint of Surgery."
"Your master is clearly the Saint of Gynecology..."
Before long, several guard disciples had fallen into an argument over Du Ge.
"Why can't we exchange knowledge together?" Du Ge kindly suggested.
"Mr. Wang's words are wise."
The guard disciples were stunned for a moment, some holding arms, others carrying legs, and they took off as if flying.
Xu Heming and the others were dumbstruck, watching as their body parts were carried away, wanting to call them back but not knowing how to speak.
Although they often nourished the severed limbs with spiritual energy, they had been left out too long, and the weather was hot. If they rotted and could not be reattached, they would be the unlucky ones...
Throughout it all, the disciples of the Medical Immortal Sect never cared why Qixing Gate had removed the Dean of the Supervisory Institute's hand, nor why the two sides were still able to coexist peacefully. Their attention was completely captured by Du Ge's exquisite medical technique.
"Sect Leader, nothing will go wrong, right?" The Dean swallowed, looking blankly at Du Ge.
"What could possibly go wrong? They're just a bunch of medical fanatics." Du Ge chuckled, "Rest easy, I've got this."
I've got this?
Easy for you to say.
The Dean's heart was filled with bitterness. After all, it wasn't your arm that was removed. If the Medical Immortal Sect sought retribution, who would they turn to for reattachment?
He shook his head, thinking that serving this master was too difficult...
Shortly after, several sword-riding cultivators came whizzing in. The limbs previously taken by their disciples were now in their hands.
"..." Dr. Long was taken aback, laughing, "Does Mr. Wang wish to remove my limbs?"
"Not to remove limbs, just to let Dr. Long feel another use of this technique." Du Ge earnestly said.
"How should I feel it?" Dr. Long asked.
"Just stand still." Du Ge smiled, stood up, and reached out to touch him.
The moment they made contact, the abundant spiritual energy within Dr. Long was siphoned through Du Ge's palm.
Dr. Long was shocked, taking a step back to break free from Du Ge's grasp, and his coat came off in the process.
He didn't care about the coat Du Ge had removed, but stared in horror at Du Ge's hand: "This... this..."
"Dr. Long understands now." Du Ge gave a wry smile, holding the coat in both hands and handing it back to Dr. Long, sighing, "This is why my master wanted to destroy this technique."
"Brother Long, what happened?" The other medical cultivators were confused.
"Try it and you'll know." Dr. Long frowned.
Du Ge touched each of them in turn, unknowingly absorbing a lot of their power, and successfully shocked all the medical cultivators.
"This technique can take away people's spiritual energy?" One of the medical cultivators asked in horror.
Du Ge looked at them and said, "The Way of Heaven is to take from the excess and give to the lacking; the Way of Humanity is to take from the lacking to serve the excess. Although the main principles are lost, I have never forgotten these two insights. Esteemed doctors, this technique can take the spiritual energy of those stronger than oneself for personal use, and it can also transfer one's own power to those less powerful."
Gulp!
All the medical cultivators swallowed hard, looking at Du Ge, their souls seemingly leaving their bodies, unable to utter a word.
Demonic technique.
It was indeed a demonic technique!
His master was right to destroy it...
But.
It must be said, it's very tempting!
"This technique is already close to the Way. My master exhausted his life creating it, dying young. To prevent it from harming others, he destroyed the main principles before his death..." Du Ge looked sorrowful.
The junior sister took a deep breath and buried her head even deeper.
Xu Heming and the others didn't speak, but they were thoroughly impressed by Du Ge's storytelling abilities.
The Dean was anxious inside.
Naive and immature, why did you tell them about the technique?
Aren't you afraid they'll capture you, force the technique out of you, and then dispose of you?
Don't you know how powerful this technique is?
Don't you know how greedy people can be?
This is an opportunity to reach the heavens in one step!
This damned kindness will eventually doom everyone...
"Your master is noble." Dr. Long looked at Du Ge, his expression complex.
"..." Du Ge looked at him and sighed, "But I really can't bear for this technique to be lost, so I used the Dean and others as a lure to draw out all the esteemed doctors. I hope to perfect this technique with the help of the medical cultivators, to benefit the world. Doctors save lives and heal the wounded, so I believe they will not use this technique for evil..."
