Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 873: Chapter 873: The Hegemon of Hei River

Heijiang City, a medium-sized city in the northern part of Huaxia, took Ye Luo a good five to six hours of flight to reach.

However, Ye Luo only knew that Snow Mountain was in Heijiang City, but not its specific location, so he decided to stay in Heijiang City for one night to find out the exact location of Snow Mountain before setting off.

Not far from the airport, Ye Luo took a taxi to find a hotel to stay in, but it wasn’t long before he saw a crowd blocking the road ahead.

Ye Luo activated his Clairvoyant Eye to see what had happened, but as he did so, his brow furrowed deeply, and a trace of chill flashed in his eyes.

In the midst of the crowd, a million-dollar Lamborghini was parked, surrounded by five or six men in black, with strong bodies, emitting a strong murderous aura that kept people at bay, evoking a profound sense of dread.

Standing in front of these men in black was a young man dressed in international brand name clothes, wearing a watch worth hundreds of thousands, exuding an aura of luxury, clearly a rich young master.

At that moment, the young man’s lips curled into a cold smirk, his eyes carrying a lecherous gaze as he looked at a young woman in front of him.

This young woman, in the prime of her youth, wore a simple T-shirt and jeans, but perfectly outlined her tall and sexy figure.

Under the T-shirt, she had a full bust and a slender waist, tight jeans wrapped around her perky buttocks, and long legs, especially her face, which was exquisite and pure, giving off a fresh and ethereal vibe.

Especially those watery eyes evoked a protective urge in others.

However, at this moment, the young woman had a look of urgency and anger as she glared at the young man in front of her, beside her lay an unconscious old man, pale-faced, gasping for breath, seemingly suffering from a serious illness, in critical condition.

”Qian Lei, what exactly do you want to do?”

The young woman shouted at the young man with a face full of anger.

”Ning Lu, your grandfather suddenly fell ill, and it looks quite serious. Just agree to be my girlfriend, and I’ll drive your grandfather to the hospital right now, how about that?”

The young man replied with a playful smile, his lascivious eyes unabashedly visible.

”You bastard, I will never be your girlfriend,” the young woman retorted coldly, her eyes filled with disgust.

”Is that so? Then prepare to watch your grandfather die. I tell you, as long as I am here, no ambulance will come, and you won’t find a car to take your grandfather to the hospital.”

”The nearest hospital requires at least a fifteen-minute drive from here. You might as well slowly carry your grandfather there, but by the time you reach the hospital, your grandfather could probably be taken straight to the morgue.”

The young man said with a hint of sinister coldness in his eyes.

Hearing his words, the young woman’s face was filled with anger as she pointed at the young man with a furious expression.

”Qian Lei, how could you be so shameless? To force me to be your girlfriend, you resort to such despicable actions; are you even human?”

”Hmph, I, Qian Lei, have never failed to get a woman I want. It’s your choice, either be my girlfriend or watch your grandfather die right before your eyes,” he said.

This young man named Qian Lei, with his arms crossed, smiled triumphantly, waiting for the beauty he had long coveted to willingly throw herself into his arms, a scene he relished the most.

”Please save my grandpa, I beg you!”

The young woman was momentarily at a loss, automatically casting her gaze around at the onlookers, hoping they would offer their help.

However, although these onlookers were very indignant and dissatisfied with the young man’s sinister and wicked actions, nobody dared to intervene, even among them were several doctors who knew the old man’s condition was critical, yet they, too, remained silent.

All this was because of the young man’s identity, this Qian Lei was the young master of the most prominent family in Heijiang City, the Qian Family.

The Qian Family was like a territorial emperor in Heijiang City, with the Qian Group controlling eighty percent of the city’s economy. Even many in the city’s government were from the Qian Family.

Moreover, it was said that the Qian Family had many formidable members; they were ruthless in their dealings, and anyone who crossed them met only with death, completely dominating Heijiang City to the point where no one dared provoke the Qian Family for fear of their own safety.

And as Qian Lei was the young master and the future heir of the Qian Family, naturally no one dared to oppose him, as doing so was simply a death wish.

Thus, although the bystanders were extremely angry with Qian Lei’s behavior, they dared not speak up.

Seeing that none of the surrounding people were willing to step forward and help, and the ambulance she had called had not yet arrived, her grandfather was getting worse by the minute.

Tears began to well up in the desperate and helpless Ning Lu’s eyes as she reluctantly looked at Qian Lei, wondering if she really had to become his girlfriend.

Ning Lu, as his university classmate, knew Qian Lei very well; he was an utterly wicked scoundrel who fancied women, and had toyed with any female student who appeared remotely attractive.

His actions had even driven several girls to leap to their deaths. When their families sought justice against Qian Lei, they ended up ruined and devastated, all because of him.

Knowing all this, it was impossible for Ning Lu to agree to be his girlfriend, but if she didn’t, her grandfather would...

At this moment, Ning Lu’s grandfather’s lips had already turned blue, and his breathing had become even weaker, as if he was on the verge of death.

”Grandpa, grandpa, you must hang on!”

Ning Lu called out in haste, her face full of urgency, with tears sparkling in her eyes.

”Ning Lu, your grandpa looks like he’s almost gone. If you don’t agree now, I’m afraid he will really go meet the Netherworld King,” Qian Lei said with a cold sneer.

”I agree...”

Ultimately, for the sake of her grandfather’s life, Ning Lu could only bring herself to agree, sacrificing herself to save the life of her only remaining relative.

But before Ning Lu could finish, a figure stepped forward from the crowd, interjecting with a statement that cut her off.

”I can save your grandfather!”

The person speaking was Ye Luo, who at that moment approached the old man, several silver needles appearing in his hand which he quickly inserted into several acupoints around the elder’s chest, as strands of Nine Yang Energy flowed into his body.

The old man was suffering from acute myocardial infarction, a condition that without immediate treatment led only to death. Fortunately, Ye Luo intervened in time; through his acupuncture combined with the Nine Yang Energy, the old man’s complexion gradually returned to normal, and his breathing stabilized.
