Pa!
As he spoke loudly, Zhao Ba slapped him fiercely to the ground. An aura of superiority erupted from his body, suppressing Doctor Zhou, who trembled uncontrollably.
"What kind of trash are you, daring to be presumptuous in front of me again and again?" Zhao Ba said coldly.
"You... How can you hit someone?" Doctor Zhou's voice grew much quieter.
"Uncle Zhao, although his tone is a bit off, he's not wrong," Jing Nian Qiao naturally sided with Doctor Zhou, as she was the one who brought him.
"Nian Qiao, with only a forty percent success rate, I disagree with Big Brother having this surgery!" Zhao Ba objected.
"You never wanted my husband to recover!" Chen Shufen retorted.
Zhao Ba forced a smile, "Sister-in-law, prejudice is a mountain. I've brought many doctors over the years. If Big Brother was truly harmed by me, would I be doing this? Now that I'm the leader of the Wu Alliance, what meaning is there in what I do? To put it another way, if I truly wanted Big Brother dead, with my current status and means, it would only take a word."
Chen Shufen fell silent, her expression complex.
The Doctor Zhou, however, was completely pale with fright. The person in front of him was actually the leader of the Wu Alliance. To think he had dared to speak so loudly just now, he felt a lingering fear. He quickly knelt on the ground and apologized, "Um, Boss, I was ignorant just now. A forty percent chance is indeed too low. Let this young Chinese medicine practitioner handle it."
It was fortunate he hadn't performed surgery yet; otherwise, if it failed, he wouldn't even know how he died.
"Get out of the way!" Zhao Ba yelled coldly.
Doctor Zhou immediately dared not speak another word. He quietly moved to the side. However, despite his fear of Zhao Ba, he remained deeply disdainful of Li Se's medical skills, seeing it as a path to self-destruction.
Chinese medicine? Acupuncture?
That was simply a joke.
"Zhao Ba, can he, at such a young age, cure my husband?" Chen Shufen was somewhat angry that Zhao Ba dared to intimidate the doctor her daughter had brought.
Even if it was only forty percent, there was still a chance, wasn't there?
Jing Nian Qiao was also somewhat displeased, but she didn't say anything. She wanted to see how skilled the doctor Zhao Ba brought was.
Li Se took out his silver needles. He always carried the Thirteen Needles of Ghost Gate, but the needles used for treating Jing Shan were just ordinary ones. After sterilizing them with spiritual energy, he was about to begin acupuncture.
"Don't you need to sterilize them?" Doctor Zhou couldn't help but mutter.
Chen Shufen, hearing this, quickly admonished, "Haven't these silver needles been used on many people before? If this isn't sterilized and any disease is transmitted to my husband, can you bear that responsibility?"
"I have already sterilized them," Li Se frowned, showing some displeasure. If it weren't for Zhao Ba, he would have left long ago, why would he patiently treat Jing Shan here?
"Sister-in-law, please trust Xiao Li!" Zhao Ba said earnestly.
Only then did Chen Shufen say no more.
Li Se inserted the silver needles into Jing Shan's forehead, placing over a dozen of them. He then said, "Do not remove the needles. I will return in three days to administer treatment again."
Afterward, Li Se wrote a prescription, handed it to Chen Shufen, and then said to Zhao Ba, "Brother Zhao, I'll be taking my leave."
"Xiao Li, I'll escort you," Zhao Ba nodded. He knew Li Se was a little upset by Chen Shufen's attitude.
After leaving the luxurious mansion, Zhao Ba said apologetically, "Xiao Li, I'm sorry. My sister-in-law has her temper. Please don't take it to heart."
Li Se smiled, "Brother Zhao, I wouldn't stoop to arguing with a woman. By the way, absolutely do not remove those silver needles."
"Yes, I'll keep an eye on it," Zhao Ba nodded.
Li Se quickly bid farewell to Zhao Ba and drove away. However, after only a few minutes of driving, several black cars immediately forced him to stop.
Frowning, Li Se got out of the car. The people from these black cars also alighted. He asked coldly, "Is there something?"
"Come with us," the leader was a long-haired man whose one eye was obscured by his hair. He looked rather thin.
"Who sent you?"
"You'll know when you come," the thin man said indifferently.
"And if I refuse?" Li Se narrowed his eyes.
"Heh heh, you will comply." The thin man slowly approached Li Se. Originally, after receiving his mission, he intended to teach Li Se a lesson before taking him away. Therefore, if Li Se refused now, he was more than happy to oblige.
As he spoke, the thin man struck. His fist shot directly towards Li Se's chest. His power was immense; if this punch landed, ordinary people's bones would shatter.
Li Se's eyes sharpened. This punch was meant to take half his life. Since that was the case, he would not be polite either. He shifted his feet slightly, his body flickered, and he had already dodged the opponent's punch. Simultaneously, he kicked out, striking the opponent's knee squarely!
Bang!
Crack!
The kneecap shattered.
"Ah!" The thin man cried out in pain. He knelt directly on the ground, looking up at Li Se in disbelief, and then shouted, "Attack!"
The others finally reacted and all moved towards Li Se. Some even drew weapons, including iron bars and knives.
"You are too weak!" Li Se had now reached the second level of Qi Cultivation, how could these ordinary people contend with him?
In less than a minute, these people were all lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
Li Se squatted down and looked at the thin man, saying, "Tell me, who sent you?"
"Heh heh, I won't tell you," the thin man sneered.
"No, you will tell me," Li Se reached out, grabbed the thin man's shattered knee, and squeezed hard.
"Ah!" The thin man let out a pig-like scream. His bones had already been broken, and now Li Se was squeezing them like this. The pain was almost enough to make him faint.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you..." The thin man quickly surrendered. "It was Zhang Ruishan's secretary. He sent me to grab you."
"Zhang Ruishan?" Li Se immediately knew who it was.
The richest man in Hong Kong, Yao Jingtai!
It hadn't even been a few hours since he left Yuanfeng Group, and this Yao Jingtai had sent people to capture him. It seemed that Yu Wenliang was indeed sent by Yao Jingtai. The so-called cooperation was actually just wanting him to do his bidding.
Li Se did not intend to let the thin man and the others off easily. He made a phone call to Tian Anming.
