Chapter 2073 - 2073: Can Cancer Be Cured?

Five days passed swiftly.During these five days, Liu Mubai's recovery was remarkably fast. According to Bai Li Xi's examination, the wound on his heart had mostly healed, and it was estimated that in three more days, the wound would completely heal. This demonstrates the wonders of the Immortal Demon Body Manuscript.

Naturally, Bai Li Xi was amazed as well; he didn't know what manuscript Liu Mubai practiced, nor did he ask. After all, the only manuscripts that could heal Liu Mubai's wound were those three. No matter which one Liu Mubai practiced, Bai Li Xi felt it was inappropriate to inquire, as any one of those manuscripts would drive the world crazy.

During these five days, Ye Qing remained in Shenchuan City, observing Wen'er's situation while also waiting for news from Huangfu Ziyu. However, over these days, Wen'er hadn't made any moves. Of course, before the Half-Moon Night, they probably couldn't proceed, as they couldn't search for the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master. Yet, over these days, Ye Qing hadn't received any news from Huangfu Ziyu, which worried him even more.

Although Old Wang Ba told Ye Qing that Huangfu Ziyu was in no danger, she was still Ye Qing's woman, so how could he not be concerned? Out of worry, Ye Qing would ask Old Wang Ba several times a day, even wishing he could torture the old fellow to force him to reveal Huangfu Ziyu's whereabouts. But Old Wang Ba wasn't to be underestimated; not only did he refuse to disclose Huangfu Ziyu's whereabouts, but he also used matters related to the Yelu Family to threaten Ye Qing, leaving Ye Qing in a complete mess.

In fact, during these five days, the Tomb Guarding Elders from the Yelu Family had come to the manor of the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance to demand an explanation from Ye Qing. What explanation could Ye Qing give them? The options were for Ye Qing to marry Yelu Ying, for them to kill Ye Qing, or to commit suicide. None of these situations were negotiable for Ye Qing, so he simply hid from these people. The two elders almost searched the entire manor of the Seven Steering Committees, but fortunately, Ye Qing hid well; otherwise, they would have caught him for sure. However, Ye Qing also knew hiding wasn't a long-term solution; this matter had to be resolved sooner or later, though how to resolve it was a headache for Ye Qing.

On the fifth afternoon, with only one day left before the Half-Moon Night, Ye Qing's family and Lin Mengjie, along with Old Fifth Yang, arrived in Shenchuan City from Jiuchuan County.

Actually, Old Fifth Yang and the others should have been in Shenchuan City days ago. However, Ye Qing's family wasn't too willing to come to Shenchuan City, causing a slight delay.

Ye Qing's father, Ye Changwen, being older, naturally wanted to stay in his hometown. Ye Qing couldn't directly tell him about his current situation, so he didn't know that his son had brought them there for their safety. If Ye Qing hadn't persuaded Ye Changwen using Ye Jun's situation, the old man might have been unwilling to come to Shenchuan City.

Zhou Hongxia's relationship with the Ye family now was quite good. Her daughter, Yuan Xiaoyu, was now a key figure under Old Fifth Yang, handling the tasks Lin Mengjie used to deal with. Yuan Xiaozheng was soon to finish his exams and was busy with his studies. Zhou Hongxia wanted to visit the big city, but her daughter Yuan Xiaoyu and son Yuan Xiaozheng weren't as available. These delays almost prevented them from coming.

Fortunately, Old Fifth Yang mediated, allowing Yuan Xiaoyu to temporarily put aside her work and come to Shenchuan City. As for Yuan Xiaozheng, Zhao Chengshuang arranged for him to attend school in Shenchuan City, making it easier for his studies. With these two issues resolved, the family managed to arrive in Shenchuan City.

Old Fifth Yang and the others arrived at the manor of the Seven Steering Committees, where Ye Qing and Ye Jun were waiting at the door. Several cars stopped at the entrance, and Ye Changwen was the first to jump out of the car. Though his legs were inconvenient, seeing his second son filled his heart with joy, and he staggered over, tears streaming, shouting, "Junzi! Junzi!"

Upon seeing his father, the typically stubborn Ye Jun couldn't help but burst into tears, rushing forward to embrace his father. After being missing for so many years, the reunion between father and son was full of unspoken hardships, especially with Ye Jun's current condition. Embracing him, Ye Changwen cried out loud, no longer caring about appearances.

Standing nearby, Ye Qing felt his eyes moisten. His father and brother were the only family he had left, the ones he would protect with all he had.

Shortly after Ye Changwen got out, the rest also stepped out of the car. The first was Zhou Hongxia, who loudly called Ye Jun's name and came over, crying as she hugged Ye Jun. Of course, Ye Qing knew very well how much of this was an act. Nonetheless, he didn't mind, as long as his father was happy, there was nothing more to say.

Ye Jun wasn't as forgiving as Ye Qing; he still harbored resentment toward Zhou Hongxia's family, having left home originally because he couldn't stand them. Now seeing Zhou Hongxia, his eyes showed clear disdain. But out of respect for his father, he said nothing, gently releasing Zhou Hongxia and supporting Ye Changwen, saying softly, "Dad, let's go in."

"Okay, okay, let's go in, go in." Ye Changwen nodded repeatedly, following his son but also turning to Zhou Hongxia, saying, "Hongxia, come along, come along."

Having been released by Ye Jun, Zhou Hongxia naturally looked awkward. Hearing Ye Changwen's words, her expression improved a bit, quickly smiling as she followed them. Seeing his father invite her along, Ye Jun said nothing more, although he continued to keep some distance between himself and Zhou Hongxia.

At this point, Yuan Xiaoyu and Yuan Xiaozheng also came down. Yuan Xiaozheng was still carrying his school bag, and he was overjoyed to see Ye Qing. Although this brother was not biological, he had great admiration for Ye Qing. Yuan Xiaoyu felt similarly, except her admiration also carried a hint of gratitude. Without Ye Qing, she would surely still be a shop assistant somewhere; how could she have the high-flying lifestyle she enjoys today?

After greeting this brother and sister, Ye Qing arranged for them to go inside and rest. Then, he noticed Old Fifth Yang being carried out of the car.

Old Fifth Yang's cancer had flared up, and now he couldn't stand up, spending all his time lying in bed. Lin Mengjie had obviously already learned of the father-daughter relationship she had with Old Fifth Yang, so she took extra care in looking after him. With his biological daughter by his side, Old Fifth Yang, although very ill, had a heart full of sweetness.

Ye Qing was able to achieve what he had today largely due to Old Fifth Yang's help. Although there was a relationship of mutual benefit, Ye Qing felt nothing but gratitude toward those who helped him, which was the main reason he wanted to help treat Old Fifth Yang's illness.

"Fifth Brother!" Ye Qing hurried up to him.

Old Fifth Yang, upon hearing Ye Qing's voice, immediately mustered his strength to lift his head from the bed. His face, due to chemotherapy, had lost all its hair, his skin was deathly pale, and his face looked terrifyingly thin. Yet, seeing Ye Qing, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Ye, I never thought I'd see you again before I die!"

"What nonsense are you saying!" Lin Mengjie quickly interjected, "What do you mean 'die'? Ye has already said that your illness can be cured! Please don't mention death again, alright?"

Despite being scolded by his daughter, Old Fifth Yang wasn't angry; instead, he smiled gently. He nodded softly and said, "Okay, okay, I won't mention death anymore."

Seeing Old Fifth Yang like this, Ye Qing couldn't help but chuckle. This once formidable figure in Jiuchuan County had only this one daughter; the extent of his love for her was evident.

"Fifth Brother, rest assured. Now that you're here, nothing will happen to you!" Ye Qing walked over, gently patting Old Fifth Yang's shoulder, and said, "I've arranged the doctors already. Once you're inside, I'll have them examine you. Rest assured, your illness will not be a problem!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you all," Old Fifth Yang nodded, his disbelief evident. After all, he had cancer, and it was already at an advanced stage. Doctors had concluded he wouldn't live much longer. Cure cancer? Absurd! Cancer is, after all, an incurable disease worldwide! If it could be cured, it would probably win a Nobel Prize, wouldn't it?

Lin Mengjie looked up at Ye Qing and softly said, "Ye..." Before she could finish her sentence, her voice choked with emotion. It was clear she was very worried about her father's condition. Although Ye Qing promised it could be treated, her heart was still full of anxiety.

"Don't worry, it will be fine." Ye Qing nodded reassuringly at her, his determined gaze somewhat soothing Lin Mengjie's anxious heart.

"Let's get Fifth Brother inside first." Ye Qing turned to call for several medical staff behind him. To ensure Old Fifth Yang's safety, they had specially transferred a team of medical personnel from Jiuchuan County to bring him over.

Several medical staff approached, and among them, two had a mocking expression on their faces. These individuals were Old Fifth Yang's main doctors; they were well aware of his condition. So when they heard Ye Qing say that Old Fifth Yang's illness could be cured, they inwardly chuckled. Cancer, you can cure it? Didn't you bother drafting your lies beforehand?

Of course, these people weren't foolish. Seeing the scene on Ye Qing's side, they knew his capabilities must not be simple. So, they didn't say anything, they just followed along, curious to see what method Ye Qing had for treating cancer. However, inwardly, they were all thinking of watching a spectacle; they wanted to see what his face would look like when Ye Qing couldn't cure the illness.
