At this moment, these imperial physicians began to vehemently oppose, and Zhang Weidong also looked helpless. However, to be honest, he didn't hold much hope that Li Se could cure Li Shengjun. Undeniably, Li Se's medical skills were indeed very impressive, but if so many imperial physicians couldn't handle it, it was likely that Li Se would also find it difficult.
Now to directly claim seventy percent, to be honest, he was a little disbelieving. This was somewhat arrogant.
The attitude of these doctors also angered Li Se, who said displeasedly, "What, just because you can't do it, you think others can't either?"
Li Se didn't want to speak too harshly, considering they were all imperial physicians. But these people were determined to think he was a fraud. Although they didn't use the word "fraud," it was practically hanging on their lips.
"What kind of attitude is that?" Wu Yang was somewhat annoyed by Li Se's attitude. He had already seemed arrogant, and now he was even more presumptuous, even daring to question them.
"Young people nowadays are becoming increasingly disrespectful. Don't they know to show some respect when they see us imperial physicians?"
"You say 'we can't do it,' are you questioning us?"
"It's truly laughable. We are questioning him, and yet he turns around and questions us."
"..."
These imperial physicians were all extremely angry. They were the top doctors, and even some national leaders had to be polite to them. Yet now, some unknown youngster dared to speak to them in such a tone, it was truly lawless.
"What, is there something wrong with what I said?" Li Se said dismissively, "You question me, it's nothing more than because I am young. Actually, I think that's secondary. The main reason is that you are helpless. In your own understanding, if you are helpless, then no one in the world can be cured. You are truly frogs in a well. Have you been in the capital for too long and forgotten that there are always people better than you and things beyond your imagination?"
"Presumptuous!" Wu Yang was completely enraged and reprimanded, "Who do you think you are, daring to speak to me like this? Believe it or not, with just one word from me, I can make you disappear from the capital..."
"Wu Yang, you've gone too far!" Sun Bai said coldly, "Li family invited him. If you have any opinions, you can go and tell the Li family. Let's see if you have the guts!"
Wu Yang's expression was unsightly. Although the Li family was also an imperial physician family, they were different from these imperial physicians. The Li family also controlled significant military power, which was an entirely different concept. Imperial physicians also had levels. Someone like Li Zhongfu treated truly important leaders.
"Alright, everyone, let's say less. Li Shishen's medical skills can be affirmed, and he is also an imperial physician like us," Zhang Weidong said softly.
"What, he's an imperial physician?" Wu Yang and the others were startled, but they quickly dismissed it. As imperial physicians themselves, they knew that a new imperial physician had emerged in Qingyun City, but everyone knew that this imperial physician seemed to have gotten in through the back door. It appeared to be this young man in front of them.
"Can Little Friend Li treat him now?" Sun Bai asked somewhat displeasedly.
"Fine, I want to see how he intends to treat him. If there are any problems during the treatment, Elder Sun, you must take responsibility!" Wu Yang snorted coldly.
"You don't need to worry about that!" Sun Bai thought to himself that this was someone the Li family had invited. Even if the treatment failed, they wouldn't be held responsible.
Wu Yang's face was grim. He still didn't believe that an imperial physician who got in through the back door could cure a patient that so many of them, imperial physicians, couldn't help. He was just waiting to watch the show. Seventy percent probability, how ridiculous.
"Imperial Physician Li, please ask them all to leave. I don't want Western medicine practitioners present when I'm treating," Li Se said lightly.
"You dare to ask us to leave?" Wu Yang was furious.
"Leave!" Sun Bai waved his hand. "I'll be fine here."
Wu Yang's expression was unsightly, and he could only snort coldly before turning and leaving the ward.
"Little Friend Li, please don't take offense. This Wu Yang is like that, arrogant and self-willed," Sun Bai said helplessly.
"I won't stoop to argue with such a person." Although Li Se was somewhat angry, there was no need to bother with him. The most important thing now was to treat the patient in front of him.
"Do you need my help?" Sun Bai asked.
"Yes!" Li Se nodded, took out his golden needles, and then said to Sun Bai, "His injuries are too severe, his internal organs are already damaged. This must have been done by some expert. Ordinary medical techniques won't work to treat this. We must use Qi-guided Needling. Elder Sun, you should perform acupuncture at these acupoints..."
"Okay!" Sun Bai nodded without hesitation. Li Se was naturally very confident in his medical skills, and this was not the first time they had cooperated in treating patients. They had even cooperated in resolving a Gu poison on Qingyun Mountain last time.
"Hui Yang Needle Technique!" Sun Bai was somewhat surprised. He knew this needle technique should belong to the Eight Great Sects and didn't expect Li Se to know it too.
Following the Hui Yang Needle Technique, came the Nine Needles of the Celestial Physician. All nine needles were applied. As the last needle was inserted, Li Se's complexion turned slightly pale.
"Little Friend Li, are you alright?" Sun Bai asked with concern.
"I'm fine," Li Se shook his head. Then, he gathered his true qi in his palm and transmitted it into Li Shengjun's body through the golden needles. This true qi, combined with acupuncture, could dispel the external force present within the patient.
The process lasted for a full hour, and Li Se was almost completely drained. After removing the needles, he let out a long sigh and said, "Next, we just need the medicated bath."
"You truly are remarkable. You managed to turn the tide in such a situation. It seems your earlier claim of seventy percent was just a modest statement," Sun Bai exclaimed in admiration.
Meanwhile, the imperial physicians outside were still waiting. Wu Yang's face was still filled with disdain. He still didn't believe that a young fellow could cure the patient when so many imperial physicians were helpless. It was truly laughable.
At that moment, the rescue room door was opened. Wu Yang then mocked, "Very impressive. A seventy percent chance. It's been an hour, could it be that he's already cured? After all, it's a seventy percent chance. If it's unsuccessful, it would be an unbearable injustice."
"Indeed, seventy percent in surgery is basically a sure thing."
"After all, he's also an imperial physician; his medical skills speak for themselves."
"Oh dear, let's hurry in and see what the situation is. If we don't go in soon, we might not even get to see him for the last time."
"..."
These doctors all began to jeer sarcastically. In any case, they did not believe that Li Se could cure Li Shengjun.
