The Female Taoist Priestess’s Childhood Sweetheart Is a Male CEO

Chapter 80

After taking the photo, Tang Xingyou rushed over and squeezed Ye Ze aside, "Little Seven, you were simply amazing! First place, yeah! Our department can finally hold our heads high this time!"

She turned to Ye Ze apologetically: "Sorry God Ye, you're no longer the god in my heart. Little Seven is!"

Ye Ze: ......

After a ten-minute break, the second round officially began. This time, there were even fewer participants, with only one man from the local Special Security Bureau named Du Yuanzheng. He was already forty years old, though this was just a hobby for him and he didn't study it deeply.

The patient that the Metaphysics Association brought in was the family member of an operative from the Special Security Bureau, an elderly lady who had been paralyzed on one side for many years. However, the old lady had an excellent attitude and had volunteered to be the "volunteer" for this evaluation several times before.

She had said, "Since I'm already like this, whether I cry or laugh, it's just another day. So why not face life happily? At least I still have half my body that can move!"

Du Yuanzheng had also treated this elderly lady last time, so he had done a lot of preparation afterward, but he still couldn't find a good solution.

Therefore, when he saw that it was the same elderly lady this time, he directly conceded defeat.

Jian Xi, however, was not affected by Du Yuanzheng's withdrawal. Instead, she carefully took the elderly lady's pulse, allowing her inner energy to circulate through the lady's body, locating the blockages in her meridians.

She instructed the elderly lady to lie still, and after sterilizing the silver needles prepared by the Metaphysics Association, Jian Xi began acupuncturing points on the lady's left hand such as Qu Ze, Kong Zui, Tian Tong, Xia Bai, as well as areas along the Yin Qu Mai, Jiao Xin, Fu Liu, Yin Ling, and Yin Gu on her left leg.

When Jian Xi inserted the last needle, she gently tapped the tail of that silver needle with her finger, and a miraculous scene unfolded.

Everyone widened their eyes in astonishment—although she had only tapped that one needle, somehow all the other silver needles began vibrating as well!

They didn't understand this aspect of traditional Chinese medicine, so they were simply amazed. Only Du Yuanzheng was so excited that he almost danced around, "This, this is... the Trembling Needle technique!"

Someone asked curiously why he was so excited, and after calming down, he explained, "Don't just think it's amazing. The Trembling Needle is an ultimate technique in the art of healing. Very few people can master it. She needs to precisely infuse her inner energy into the silver needles through that tap just now. Every tremble of the needles is unblocking the meridians around the acupuncture points. It takes at least ten or twenty years of practice, and immense talent, to learn this skill!"

He added, "I was fortunate enough to witness the divine physician Lin Yichen perform acupuncture to save someone before. This young lady's skill is on par with his!"

After Du Yuanzheng's explanation, everyone realized that Jian Xi's acupuncture skills were truly formidable, and they eagerly anticipated what changes the elderly lady might experience after the treatment!

At this point, the elderly lady on the bed gradually changed from a smiling expression to one of pain, as the half of her body that had been numb for years now felt a prickling, biting sensation, as if countless tiny insects were biting her.

She instinctively tried to squirm, but a hand pressed her down. "Don't move, grandma. Endure it for just a bit longer."

Jian Xi spoke to her to distract her attention. "Grandma, you're so lucky! You'll have a chubby grandson by the end of the year."

The elderly lady was astonished. "How did you know my daughter-in-law is pregnant, young lady?"

But then she realized their profession and understood that the young lady must have seen some signs. So she said, "It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl, as long as the baby is healthy. I just feel bad for my daughter-in-law. Ever since she got pregnant, she's been vomiting constantly. I haven't even been able to cook a meal for her."

Jian Xi smiled reassuringly while writing something down. "Don't worry, you'll be able to cook for her tonight."

The elderly lady didn't catch the meaning of Jian Xi's words at first. By the time she understood, Jian Xi had already removed all the silver needles from her body!

"Okay, grandma, get up and walk a few steps." Jian Xi came over to help her up.

"Walk a few steps?" The elderly lady instinctively lifted her left leg.

"It moved! I can move it!" she exclaimed.

"Her left leg can move! Incredible!"

"Who is Ye Ze's junior sister? How can she even cure this?"

"Brother, the key point is that it only took one acupuncture session!"

Amidst the discussions in the audience area, the elderly lady had already gotten off the bed and was standing on the ground. Jian Xi released her, saying, "Walk confidently. You'll be fine!"

Tears welled up in the elderly lady's eyes as she glanced at her son standing outside the ring, his eyes filled with hope.

She took a step forward with her left leg, lifting it up, advancing, and setting it down. Her right leg followed, without the slightest hesitation, showing no sign that just ten minutes ago she had been paralyzed on one side!

"Thank you, young lady!" The elderly lady, tears streaming down her face, moved to kneel before Jian Xi in her excitement and gratitude!

Jian Xi quickly stopped her, but the elderly lady insisted. Finally, her son also rushed over and kept bowing to express his thanks. Jian Xi then cried out for help, "Second Senior Brother, save me!"

Her cry made everyone present burst into laughter!

It took Ye Ze some time to persuade them before the elderly lady and her son finally left after Jian Xi gave them the prescription, carefully explaining the dosage and duration. "I've unblocked your meridians, but you'll need to take herbal medicine for a month to continue the treatment. Don't interrupt the course."

The elderly lady and her son readily agreed, thanking Jian Xi profusely before Ye Ze led them away.

With them gone, Jian Xi finally heaved a sigh of relief.

But to her surprise, the audience area erupted in thunderous applause, cheering her on. This nearly triggered her shyness disorder!

Unsurprisingly, Jian Xi also won first place in the second event. Ye Ze personally presented her with the gold medal once again, which she still did not wear around her neck.

Now Yang Tian in the audience area looked at Jian Xi with an even more burning gaze, of course. Many team leaders from other cities had the same look, and even the four other judges on the judging panel closely watched Jian Xi's performance.

When Jian Xi received her award, Nie Xiujin's grin stretched so wide it almost reached his temples. He completely failed to notice the way those people looked at their sect leader and proudly, without any caution, told anyone who asked which other events Jian Xi had signed up for.

"You're asking about our Jian Xi? She signed up for every single event!"
