After a moment, Old Man Liu heaved a sigh of relief and removed the silver needles from the man’s body one by one.
“Boss, how do you feel?” The three others surrounded him.
The man clenched his fist and felt it. He smiled. “I’m cured!”
“That’s great! Second brother, you go now!”
Then, another man sat in front of Old Man Liu and undressed without a word.
When Old Man Liu inserted the needle again, Lu Zheng once again felt a faint chill coming from the holes on the first man’s upper body.
Old Man Liu didn’t remove them completely.
However, that was normal. This was a medical skill, not a spell. In the modern world, even the common cold could not be cured immediately, not to mention in ancient times.
However, this group of people obviously didn’t have any good intentions. Old Man Liu only wished to send them away as soon as possible.
Was he supposed to remind them to come back tomorrow to continue the treatment?
“Pretty boy, what are you looking at!” The other man glared at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng smiled and shifted his gaze.
These guys were humans and not ghosts. There were also civilians passing by from time to time. Lu Zheng did not want to make a move in public and invite a lawsuit. If his background was investigated, he would be discovered as an unregistered citizen.
“Hmph!”
Seeing Lu Zheng shift his gaze, the man snorted smugly. He then turned to Liu Qingyan with a lecherous look. “Little lady, where are you from? What’s your name?”
Liu Qingyan retreated, and Old Man Liu also looked up.
“Third brother!” The leader of the group glared at the man.
“Hehe, I’m just asking. I don’t have any other intentions.” The man shut his mouth in embarrassment.
It took Old Man Liu an entire hour to remove the cold Qi from the four people’s bodies. Well, at least they thought it was removed.
“I can’t thank you enough, doctor.” The man in the lead cupped his hands and smiled.
“You’re welcome. That’s our job. It’s just that you shouldn’t go to such cold places in the future. If cold energy enters your body again, it will only become more serious.” Old Man Liu replied.
“Thank you for your reminder, doctor. We won’t anymore.”
The man in the lead replied. He exchanged a look with the three brothers beside him and all of them laughed.
The one who was addressed as “third brother” wanted to go and harass Liu Qingyan again. However, the leader of the group pulled him back and left.
“Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s hurry back.” Old Man Liu stretched.
“Who are those people?” Lu Zheng asked, frowning.
“Tomb raiders,” Old Man Liu replied casually, “I’ve been a doctor for decades. I definitely wouldn’t mistake that kind of cold aura of death.”
“Young Master Lu, these people are not ordinary. They are full of Qi. Although they haven’t cultivated blood Qi, ordinary people can’t defeat them. You might have cultivated Qi, but I don’t think you can defeat them in a head-on fight!”
Old Man Liu saw the deep look in Lu Zheng’s eyes and hurriedly advised him, “it’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble. They shouldn’t be from Tonglin County. Now that they’re fine, they should be leaving in the middle of the night. Let’s not cause any trouble.”
The entire Liu family knew that Lu Zheng had obtained a martial arts cultivation manual. However, they did not expect him to have cultivated the blood Qi of a martial artist in just a few days. In fact, it was even before he cultivated the Taoist Qi.
“Okay, don’t worry. I won’t be impulsive.”
After the shop assistant cleaned up the shop, the three of them returned to Tongyi Lane together.
As usual, they invited Lu Zheng for a meal. When he went home, Aunt Liu teased him, “why does it feel you’re just here to sleep? Young master, when will you be able to sleep in the Liu residence?”
When he got home, Lu Zheng didn’t transmigrate back to the modern world. Instead, he added one ray of light of providence to his body, one to his spirit, two to his blood Qi, and one to his Qi.

There were still four rays of light of providence left in the jade seal.
By the way, Lu Zheng had discovered in the past few days that his mental energy could be improved, so he had consumed a ray back then.
Similar to the physical body, Lu Zheng’s mental state, including exuberance, concentration, memory, and clarity could be strengthened.
It was too general, so a ray of light still couldn’t increase the strength much, but it was in line with Lu Zheng’s goal of developing himself into an all-rounded person.
Lu Zheng changed into a set of combat-suits and sat under the persimmon tree in the courtyard with his sword.
When they entered Tongyi Lane, Lu Zheng turned around and saw that the fourth of the group was following them stealthily.
Killing someone out of self-defense in your own house was different from killing someone on the street. There was evidence. Just like how Lu Zheng beat up the intruder that day, he did not have to worry about being sued even if he killed the person.
“Boss, I’ve found the place. They are a family of four with two old servants. Besides the beautiful girl, there’s also a young girl. The old man’s wife is a middle-aged woman who still has her charm!”
“Hehe!”
“I like them young!”
“Leave the older one to me!”
“Of course, we’re brothers!” “Hahaha!”
“Hurry up. We’ll enjoy ourselves until midnight and leave after.”
“What about the thing?”
“Send it out of the city!”
“Alright!”
The sky was getting dark, the moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. It was a rare night with a bright moon.
Lu Zheng leaped and landed on the persimmon tree in the backyard. Vaguely, he could see the lights in the backyard of the Liu family and hear Liu Qingquan shouting something
After two hours.
Tonglin County gradually quieted down. All the households turned off their lights and went to sleep.
It was the same for the Liu family. The house had gone dark 15 minutes ago.
At this moment, Lu Zheng’s eyes narrowed. He saw four figures silently enter the front yard of the Liu family.
Lu Zheng could tell that the four of them had extraordinary skills. If he had not cultivated, he might not have been able to defeat them with only his proficient sword-fighting skills.
But now …
“Third and fourth brother, go and deal with those two old servants first, then split up. You must not let them make a single sound.”
“Don’t worry, big brother. We’ll have fun tonight!”
SO
yn
The third and fourth brothers crouched down and made their way to the room in the front
yard.
Just as they were five feet away from the room…

“Swish!”
Lu Zheng, who had sneaked up to the roof of the front yard of the Liu family, unsheathed his knife and hid it behind his back to prevent the light from reflecting off it, immediately drew it and slashed.
Under the bright moon’s illumination, a flash of light appeared. “Ah!”
The third brother let out a blood-curdling scream and rolled to the side with his hands tucked behind his back. Blood splattered everywhere along the way.
Lu Zheng’s movements were as fast as lightning. He swung his sword three times and cut off the tendons in third brother’s hands and right foot in the blink of an eye.
