After the paper was delivered, the fine threads of true energy did not dissipate; instead, they landed on Wuqing's wrist.
Li Chengqian's true energy flowed through Wuqing's meridians, and after a moment, he withdrew it.
As the saying goes, a true expert's skill is immediately apparent.
Others might not understand Li Chengqian's methods, but Zhuge Zhengwo was already amazed by his extraordinary talent.
Only masters can gather qi into a line, but people like Mr. Li, who can gather qi into a line even from several meters away, are rare in the world.
What's even more remarkable is that Mr. Li was able to assess Wuqing's situation from such a distance, and at such a rapid pace.
No one (Zhao) can do this kind of thing, at least not himself.
"Mr. Li, what's wrong?"
Zhuge Zhengwo's tone was slightly hesitant; although he had a conclusion in mind, he was not entirely certain.
"It's nothing. I recently promised someone I'd help treat his paralyzed legs."
"You should know this person. His name is Sai Huatuo. His medical skills are extremely outstanding."
“His illness is indeed a bit troublesome, so I found a target to compare myself to, as a reference.”
Upon hearing this, hope shone in the eyes of everyone in the Divine Marquis's Mansion.
Especially the ruthlessness in the wheelchair; my originally calm heart was now filled with turbulent waves.
No one longs to run more than someone who has been paralyzed for years.
Although from a young age, renowned doctors across the country concluded that he would never be able to feel his legs again.
But if it's Mr. Li, who claims to be a celestial being, then perhaps a miracle really will happen.

"Mr. Li, is there any possibility of curing that merciless illness?"
"Have!"
Li Chengqian answered Zhuge Zhengwo very decisively.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Zhengwo immediately performed a deep bow.
"I earnestly request Mr. Li..."
"Ugh!"
Before Zhuge Zhengwo could finish speaking, Li Chengqian stopped him.
"Mr. Zhuge must have had some unnecessary misunderstandings again. I can indeed cure Miss Wuqing's illness."
"But Li never offered to help her with medical treatment."
"Her condition is a little simpler than Ouyang Mingri's, but not by much. Only I can cure her in the whole world."
"Besides that, perhaps only a celestial being descending to earth could save them."
"Unfortunately, Mr. Li is not a doctor, so he has no concept of a doctor's benevolence."
"Furthermore, the heartless girl cannot afford the price I would pay for taking action."
"You can't afford to hire me."
"Therefore, Mr. Zhuge, you should not waste your time."
After saying that, Li Chengqian ignored Zhuge Zhengwo.
Upon seeing this, a look of dejection flashed across Zhuge Zhengwo's face.
Although he possessed the cultivation of a Martial King and his strength was among the top group at the summit of the Great Song Dynasty.
But in the end, it turns out that some things can't be done just by being strong.
After refusing Zhuge Zhengwo, Li Chengqian turned to look at the crowd below.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's storytelling session is coming to an end. Is there anything you would like to hear in the next storytelling discussion?"
Upon hearing this, the crowd, who had been enjoying the gossip, were dumbfounded.
I was really enjoying the listen, how did it end so suddenly?
"Mr. Li, you didn't mention that you were on the Ming Dynasty's Rouge List as a secondary list, you can't do this!"
"Exactly, you always procrastinate, which will cause public outrage."
Faced with everyone's complaints, Li Chengqian raised the corner of his mouth, spread his hands, and said, "There's nothing I can do. It's time to go."
Instead of complaining, you should use your time to think about what you'd like to hear in the next talk show.
"If you still haven't figured it out by the time the time is up, I might not publish the next issue of Miscellaneous Talk."
Li Chengqian's words immediately made the martial arts practitioners anxious.
I usually rely on the Legend of Sword and Fairy stories and storytelling to get by. If I lost the storytelling, wouldn't my life be half gone?
For a moment, the inn was filled with a cacophony of noise.
Various demands came flying at Li Chengqian.
"Mr. Li, tell me about the Rouge Ranking of the Sui Dynasty!"
"That's right, we are from the Great Sui Dynasty."
"We've traveled a long way to get here just to find out what extraordinary people and talents our Great Sui Dynasty has."
This request was immediately approved by two prominent figures in the martial arts world, Ming and Song.
Wanwan and Shi Feixuan have been at the inn for some time now, and their beauty has captivated countless martial arts enthusiasts.
Although I won't have the chance to see more beauties from the world of the Sui Dynasty, listening to their stories is still a good way to have some fun.
However, Li Chengqian showed little interest in this request.
"The Rouge Ranking of the Sui Dynasty is boring. I, Li, have already created Rouge Rankings for two major dynasties."
"Li doesn't want to run the Rouge Ranking anymore in the short term, so you should change it to a new one."
Li Chengqian's refusal to publish the "Rouge List of the Great Sui Dynasty" has left everyone in a dilemma.
At this moment, a wandering swordsman said timidly, "Mr. Li, you've talked about so many swordsmen."
"How about we create a weapons ranking?"
"We'd also like to know what legendary weapons and magical artifacts exist in the martial arts world."
As soon as he said this, the wandering swordsman who made the request was immediately condemned by the crowd.
"Young man, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."
"What's so interesting about the weapons ranking? No matter how good a weapon is, it only has two characteristics: sturdiness and sharpness."
"Exactly, Bai Xiaosheng also compiled some kind of weapon ranking back then. Have you forgotten how Mr. Li commented on him?"
The martial arts expert who had spoken was so insulted that he couldn't even lift his head, while Li Chengqian on the high platform had a bright eye and praised, "Well asked!"
"Now that you've mentioned it, I'm interested in listing some of the legendary weapons and artifacts in the martial arts world."
When everyone saw that Li Chengqian was really going to rank the weapons, they immediately looked bitter.
"Mr. Li, why don't we choose another one?"
"This weapons ranking list is really meaningless."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled and shook his head.
"The reason why you all have this idea is probably because you are influenced by Bai Xiaosheng's weapon ranking list."
"But the divine weapons that Li listed are completely different from his."
"The reason why Li Xunhuan, the third-ranked scholar in the Three Scholars Rank, is ranked third is because of his ordinary three-inch-long flying knife."
"Li, who listed divine weapons and powerful artifacts, would certainly not do such a foolish thing."
"Since we are listing divine weapons, we must exclude the users. If we calculate it that way, the martial arts world of the Ming and Song dynasties may not be able to gather ten of them."
"How about this, every time there's a storytelling session, I, Li, will mention a divine weapon to give everyone a change of pace."
Hearing Li Chengqian say this, the interest of the group of martial arts practitioners was piqued.
"Mr. Li, are these divine weapons really that powerful?"
"Of course. If it's a divine weapon, would it deserve to be called a divine weapon if it couldn't increase the user's strength by one or two times?"
Everyone: Woohoo!!
If you put it that way, I won't be sleepy anymore.
"However, discussing only one divine weapon takes up relatively little time. In the next episode, I, Li, will tell you about the most difficult sword techniques to master in the martial arts world of the Ming and Song dynasties."
"However, you should be prepared, because the ranking criteria for the most difficult sword techniques are very strict."
"So even after racking his brains, Li still couldn't gather ten people."
"Furthermore, if there is still time left in the next installment of my miscellaneous talk, I, Li, will tell you all about King Wu of the Great Song Dynasty."
At this point, Li Chengqian turned to look at Zhuge Zhengwo.
"Mr. Zhuge, I'd like to offer my opinion on you. I hope you don't mind."
"It is my honor that Mr. Li can comment on me."
"I am so grateful, how could I possibly mind?"
"That's good. Today's storytelling session is now over. Please come again in five days!"
After saying that, Li Chengqian's figure gradually disappeared.
Seeing this, the door to room number nine of the Heavenly Palace opened, and Young Master Huang led the Sunflower Ancestor slowly toward the depths of the inn.
At the same time, after much hesitation, Zhuge Zhengwo also walked towards the bamboo grove courtyard.
He still wanted to try again, even though it was a cruel thing.
""
There's some juicy gossip, but I can't see it. It's so frustrating!
A small courtyard in a bamboo grove.
