Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1782: Chapter 1781: Will You Be My Son-in-law?

”This is a type of snake venom. I can neutralize it.”

As soon as this voice rang out, everyone turned to look at the speaker.

And upon looking, they saw it was Lin Dong.

Wei Hu’s brows furrowed even deeper, his gaze toward Lin Dong cold as ice.

Meanwhile, Qin Yitian was filled with curiosity and asked, ”Dong Lin, you actually know the medical arts?”

”A little,” Lin Dong said with a smile.

Wei Hu, standing to the side, couldn’t help but say, ”Dong Lin, don’t pretend to know what you don’t. This venom was inflicted by a half-step Earth Realm martial artist, not some ordinary toxin.”

Lin Dong smiled faintly and ignored Wei Hu’s words.

Instead, he walked up to Dong Tiancheng and pulled out the Silver Needles before beginning to bleed and detoxify him.

This type of snake venom was rare, but for Lin Dong, neutralizing it was a piece of cake.

He didn’t even need to use his signature needle technique, the ”Taiyi Yin-yang Divine Needle.”

Instead, he resorted to another needle method.

Back in the Capital City, during a symposium with experts in Traditional Chinese Medicine, he had learned from many masters.

Now, he applied the ”Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles” to counteract the venom.

”The tenth needle of the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles can neutralize this snake venom.”

At this moment, Lin Dong executed the technique, pulling out thirteen Silver Needles and inserting them into thirteen acupoints on Dong Tiancheng’s body.

Wei Hu evidently didn’t believe Lin Dong could resolve the Wandering Snake’s venom, so he watched coldly the entire time.

As for Qin Yitian, she too looked puzzled. She was skeptical about whether Lin Dong knew any medical skills at all.

”Cough cough~~~”

Suddenly, Dong Tiancheng, who had been unconscious on the ground, unexpectedly coughed a few times before spitting out a large mouthful of black blood.

Soon after, he started to come around.

Lin Dong, looking at the awakened Dong Tiancheng, said, ”Boss Dong, don’t move yet; the snake venom in your body hasn’t been completely expelled.”

”I need to continue bleeding you to fully cure you.”

Feeling much better now, Dong Tiancheng nodded repeatedly, ”Okay.”

Thus, Lin Dong continued treating Dong Tiancheng.

It was visibly clear that the dark energy emanating from Dong Tiancheng was slowly dissipating.

Through the bleeding technique, Lin Dong methodically forced the remaining snake venom entirely out of his body.

Drop by drop, black blood dripped from Dong Tiancheng’s fingertips.

After hundreds of drops, the pitch-black area on Dong Tiancheng’s chest completely returned to normal.

The venom had all been purged.

Once the toxin was gone, Dong Tiancheng regained his vitality and quickly stood up, saying to Lin Dong:

”Mr. Dong Lin, you’ve saved my life yet again. I, Dong, cannot express sufficient gratitude. Please accept my bow!”

Saying this, Dong Tiancheng prepared to kneel.

Lin Dong supported him up and waved his hand, saying, ”It’s nothing, just a small effort.”

Wow!

Lin Dong’s ”small effort” left Qin Yitian and Wei Hu startled and speechless.

Qin Yitian couldn’t help but say, ”Dong Lin, you really are a genius. So young, you’re already a Martial Arts Master, and you’re also highly skilled at stone gambling. Even the Jewelry King of Jadeite City, Dong Tiancheng, and our Southborne’s top stone gambling master, Miao Lun, are not your match.”

”On top of that, you’re proficient in the medical arts. Truly incredible.”

Qin Yitian had always admired Lin Dong a bit, but not to the extent of being truly amazed.

Now, her impression of Lin Dong had completely changed.

Such a remarkable individual—she wanted to bring him over to her side.

However, for now, she kept this idea to herself, planning to speak privately with Lin Dong after Dong Tiancheng’s family banquet.

Meanwhile, Wei Hu’s eyes harbored killing intent as he glared at Lin Dong.

”This Dong Lin brat has screwed up my plans time and again. I must kill him!” In his mind, Wei Hu had already sentenced Lin Dong to death.

But little did he know that the person before him was not someone a mere Wei Hu could provoke.

Even if Wei Hu’s father were present, he would only have the right to kneel before Lin Dong and speak, let alone Wei Hu himself.

Dong Tiancheng expressed his deep gratitude to Lin Dong once more and then led the group onward to the Dong family residence.

This time, there were no assassination attempts along the way.

The group soon arrived at the Dong family estate.

The Dong family had already prepared a banquet of the highest standard.

”Dad, who is the main guest we’re inviting this time?”

At that moment, a young lady approached, her features exquisite. Although not as stunning as Qin Yitian, she easily rivaled the looks of internet celebrities.

She was dressed in attire unique to Jadeite City, exuding the air of a classical beauty from ancient borderlands.

This was Dong Tiancheng’s daughter, Dong Yuer.

As she asked, her eyes glanced at the people behind her father.

Upon seeing them, she immediately recognized Qin Yitian and Wei Hu.

”So, the main guests my father invited this time are Miss Qin Yitian and Young Master Wei Hu. No wonder he’s hosting such a grand banquet...”

As for Lin Dong standing next to Dong Tiancheng, she didn’t even look at him.

However, just at this moment, her father spoke: ”Yuer, come greet your father’s benefactor, Mr. Dong Lin.”

”From now on, you must respect him as you respect me!”

As he said this, Dong Tiancheng introduced Lin Dong to his daughter.

Dong Yuer froze in shock. She had never expected the main guest this time to be not Qin Yitian or Wei Hu, but this unassuming young man standing beside her father.

”Hello, I’m Dong Yuer. Pleased to meet you.”

Snapping back to her senses, Dong Yuer quickly extended her hand to shake Lin Dong’s.

Lin Dong nodded and gently grasped her delicate hand.

Dong Tiancheng seated Lin Dong, Qin Yitian, and Wei Hu at the main table.

During the meal, Dong Tiancheng expressed his gratitude to Lin Dong again.

His daughter, Dong Yuer, also toasted him.

After three rounds of drinks, slightly tipsy, Dong Tiancheng asked Lin Dong:

”Mr. Dong Lin, are you married?”

Lin Dong shook his head, somewhat puzzled by Dong Tiancheng’s line of questioning, but answered truthfully, ”No.”

Hearing this, Dong Tiancheng’s eyes lit up, and he followed up with another question: ”Mr. Dong Lin, what do you think of my daughter? Isn’t she beautiful?”

Lin Dong glanced at Dong Yuer again and nodded approvingly, saying, ”Boss Dong’s daughter is indeed beautiful.”

”Haha...” Dong Tiancheng couldn’t help but laugh and then asked:

”Mr. Dong Lin, would you consider staying here in Jadeite City?”

”If you’re interested, you could work with me, and I could even marry my daughter to you. She’s my only child. If you marry her, all of my family’s assets will be yours to share.”

Hearing this, Lin Dong finally understood Dong Tiancheng’s intention.

He wanted him to stay and become his son-in-law.

Dong Yuer, shocked by her father’s words, stole a glance at Lin Dong, wondering:

”What exactly is so special about this man that Father admires him so much? Father’s standards aren’t low.”

Thinking this, she studied Lin Dong carefully, admitting to herself that he did exude a certain charisma. As her husband, perhaps he wouldn’t be a bad choice.

Qin Yitian, upon hearing this, grew somewhat anxious. She had already made up her mind—she wanted Lin Dong on her side.

She wanted to bring him to Southborne!

Hurriedly, she asked Lin Dong, ”Dong Lin, you’re not seriously considering staying here and marrying Boss Dong’s daughter, are you?”

”Though Boss Dong’s daughter is indeed beautiful, a real man shouldn’t be confined to one city. He should set his sights on the entire world.”

Seeing how flustered Qin Yitian was, Lin Dong became slightly confused. What did this girl mean by that?

Dong Tiancheng, noticing Qin Yitian’s reaction, also showed a hint of urgency and said:

”Miss Qin Yitian, what do you mean? Could it be... you’ve also taken a liking to Mr. Dong Lin?”
