Upon hearing the words "Nine Palaces Reviving Needle," Wynn the Divine Physician's anger flared up once again.

The Nine Palaces Reviving Needle was one of the techniques of the Return to Life Needle Method.

His master had obtained this technique from a great master after much effort and luck.

However, the needle technique was too difficult and obscure. After several years of hard work, his master had only mastered half of it and died with regret.

Wynn's talent was even more limited than his master's, and he couldn't even learn the half that was passed down to him.

He had always been upset about not inheriting his teacher's mantle, so he was particularly sensitive to the words "Nine Palaces Reviving Needle."

Today, he was infuriated to hear Lux Arden boast that he knew the Nine Palaces Reviving Needle.

"A barefoot village doctor who probably hasn't even heard of this needle technique. How dare he boast that he knows it?"

"My master has not even fully understood this technique, and yet you, a young brat, dare to boast like this!"

"If you really know it, I'll kneel down and call you master!" After speaking, Wynn the Divine Physician turned his spearhead towards Ava.

"Since you don't trust me, find someone else. Today, we'll discharge you and spare our hospital from this charlatan." Ava was still skeptical of Lux Arden's words, but when she heard Wynn the Divine Physician's intention to discharge her mother, she became anxious.

"Lux Arden! What are you talking about? Apologize to Wynn the Divine Physician!" Salome also roared, "Do you have to kill our whole family before you stop? Fine, I'll die here today to show you!"

After finishing his sentence, he slammed into the wall of the corridor and fell to the ground with his wheelchair.

Lux Arden knew that there was no point in arguing any further. He decided to remain silent, pushed open the door of the ward, and stormed in.

"Stop! What are you trying to do?!"

"Lux Arden, don't do anything rash!"

"If anything happens to my mother, I won't let you get away with it!" Wynn, the doctor, and the two sisters tried to stop Lux Arden.

But in the next second, they were all stunned. Lux Arden raised his hand and a set of silver needles appeared in front of him.

With a slight movement of his arm and a flick of his finger, a silver needle accurately pierced the acupoint on his mother-in-law Amelia's head.

Immediately after, Lux Arden continued to flick his fingers, and several silver needles flashed with a cold light as they accurately pierced Amelia's various acupoints.

The entire process was seamless, and even the length and angle of the needles piercing the body were perfect!

Ava and her sister were in disbelief.

Although they were not doctors, as children of the Thompson family, they had seen many famous doctors use acupuncture to treat illnesses.

But they had never seen anyone use acupuncture from a distance like this.

Wynn, the doctor, was even more shocked. This technique of acupointing from a distance was truly amazing.

But what really amazed him were the silver needles, which were thin and soft like hair!

Their length and thickness made it impossible to pierce the body. It was like a pipe dream to try to insert them into a person's body.

But at this moment, almost all of the silver needle was inserted, leaving only a needle tip outside. It was truly a remarkable skill!

At this time, the silver needle trembled in unison, getting faster and faster, emitting a buzzing sound.

After a while, the tremble of the needle tip had become so fast that it was almost invisible.

The buzzing sound gradually disappeared, replaced by a strange feeling of palpitation and headache.

Immediately afterwards, a brilliant light shone in the ward.

Several colorful lights appeared out of thin air and entered Amelia's body along the silver needle. As the light gradually dissipated, the silver needle also stopped trembling.

Lux Arden collected the needle with a wave of his hand, and the palpitation and headache of the three people disappeared.

"Nine Palaces Revival!"

"This is the real Nine Palaces Revival!" Wynn stood still, exclaiming in disbelief.

When the Thompson sisters heard this, they immediately asked about their mother's condition, without thinking about why Lux Arden knew this needle technique.

"Lux Arden, how is my mother?"

"Don't worry, she's fine now."

"When will my mother wake up?"

"Three..." Lux Arden gestured with three fingers.

The two sisters were overjoyed.

Only three days?

That's really great.

"Two."

Seeing Lux Arden break another finger, the sisters were stunned.

How could this be possible?

Was he joking?

"One."

With Lux Arden's command, Amelia hummed lightly and opened her eyes lying on the bed.

"Mom!"

Ava and Salome threw themselves into their mother's arms, crying tears of joy. But this time, it was all tears of joy.

"Ava, Salome, what's wrong with you? I feel like I've been sleeping for a long time." The sisters looked at each other and smiled through their tears.

Since Salome had an accident, Amelia had been bedridden and drowsy every day, with very little time awake.

How could she not feel like she had just woken up from a dream? But now everything was fine.

"Who is this?" Amelia asked in confusion.

"He is Lux Arden, Seraphina's fiance," Salome said coldly.

"Actually, to be precise, I am now Ava's fiance," Lux Arden couldn't help but correct.

"What?"

Amelia and Salome looked at the two of them in disbelief. Ava didn't know how to explain what had happened today to them.

Even she was still a little confused.She glanced at Lux Arden, her cheeks turning red.

She complained in her heart that this guy was shameless and had no filter.

He didn't even discuss it with her before blurting it out. A mother knows her daughter best.

Amelia was anxious when she saw Ava's expression.

"You scoundrel, you first harmed my Salome, and now you're trying to harm Ava. Get out of here!" Ava quickly persuaded her mother, "Mom, don't be like this. Today, thanks to Lux Arden, he saved you."

Upon hearing this, Amelia sized up Lux Arden. He was tall and had long legs, with fair skin and a slightly masculine look on his face.

He was nothing more than a pretty boy, even if he knew a little about medicine, how skilled could he be?

"Him? He knows nothing about medicine. My foolish daughter, he must have tricked you!" Amelia said bitterly.

Salome saw that Amelia had misunderstood Lux Arden, and felt a bit guilty for insisting on his abilities.

She spoke up, "Mom, it's true Lux Arden really did Cure you today." Amelia was taken aback by her daughter's words.

She never expected Salome, who hated Lux Arden the most in the family, to speak up for him.

"So what if he did? It's just one life. I can give it back to you!" Amelia said, picking up a fruit knife from the table and holding it to her own neck.

She looked lively and energetic, with no trace of weakness.

    Upon hearing this, Selma frowned slightly and said, "Come on, Mr. Joe, it's nothing serious. Don't make a big deal out of it." Mr. Joe, he housekeeper, retorted with a serious expression, "Miss, how can you say it's not a big deal? You are the young lady of the prestigious Bowen family! You were trapped in a fire and almost died. How can that be considered a small matter?" "Next time, you can't go out alone. You must have bodyguards accompanying you!" "Let's go back to the mansion now. We need to call all the renowned doctors in Marlowe to have a consultation and make sure there are no hidden dangers." The Thompson sisters realized the identity of the stunning woman in front of them. In the entire Marlowe city, only the first family, the Bowen family, could have such a grand scene and casually use a private helicopter. The woman in front of them must be Selma Bowen, the apple of the old patriarch's eye and the Bowen family's young lady who was praised as a goddess by the

    Two stunning beauties, with despair on their faces, were driving Lux Arden away, having completely lost the courage to continue the struggle. They were ready to accept their fate calmly. However, Lux Arden frowned and whispered, "Don't give up so easily. We will definitely find a way to escape." The beautiful woman shook her head tearfully and replied, "What else can we do? Jump off the building? It's more than twenty floors high. Even if the fire department puts out safety airbags, it won't help. We are at a dead end." She burst into tears again. However, this simple sentence awakened Lux Arden. Because Ava had once said that she didn't want to be besieged by the media and just wanted to live a peaceful life. Therefore, Lux Arden had been thinking only of rescuing people discreetly, avoiding exposing his identity and using force. But the situation in front of him was extremely critical, and he couldn't afford to hold back anymore. Moreover, with his current appe

    Ava was so angry that she couldn't speak, trembling all over. She pushed Calista hard, but she didn't budge. Instead, she pushed her to the ground and spat, "You lowly bastard, you still want to fight with me? Just lie here and wait for retribution!" With that, she turned around and walked away in anger. Ava was furious and tears streamed down her face. She hated herself for being so weak that she was dragged out by Calista and left Salome in danger. She instinctively reached out her hand, waiting for Lux Arden to help her, but in the next moment, she was horrified to find that Lux Arden had disappeared. "Lux Arden!" Ava shouted his name hoarsely, as if going crazy, wanting to rush into the fire. But she was stopped by the security guards and later dragged to the safe zone by the firefighters who had finally arrived. At this time, Lux Arden had already rushed into the thick smoke of the mall. Due to the explosion and fireworks, the visibility was extremely limited, a

    Lux Arden became interested when he heard that there was going to be a class reunion. Although he had often seen Ava during the years he pursued Seraphina, they had not spent much time together. Recently, they had been spending more time together, but he only knew about Ava's family situation. He knew very little about her past. The class reunion was a good opportunity for him to get to know her better. So he urged her, "Go, it's been so many years since we've seen each other, we should catch up." "Besides, I can also chat with your classmates and hear your stories from the past." Ava blushed and scolded him, "It's just some ordinary days of studying, what stories could there be?" Although she now lived under the same roof as Lux Arden, she still felt a little shy at the thought of her youthful past being revealed to him. When Calista saw that Lux Arden had agreed for Ava, and Ava had not objected, she was extremely excited and said, "Great, then it's settled. You mu

    Ava's generosity and tolerance were well-known to Louis. Upon hearing her words, he couldn't help but feel grateful and shed tears of appreciation. However, even though Ava had spoken, he still didn't dare to stand up. After all, these troubles were caused by him, and he should apologize. Plus, Lux Arden hadn't spoken yet, so he didn't have the courage to stand up. He could only kneel on the ground silently without saying a word. There were already many onlookers outside the shop, and now more and more people were gathering. They pointed and discussed the matter, causing a commotion. Ava saw that the situation was getting out of hand and quickly nudged Lux Arden, indicating that he should resolve the matter as soon as possible. Lux Arden snorted coldly and said, "Get up. If there's a next time, I won't be lenient!" Louis couldn't believe his ears. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Lux Arden gratefully. But Lux Arden continued to speak harshly, urging hi

  • CHAPTER 90

    Lux Arden was not moved by the wealthy woman's plea for mercy, and his face became even colder. He said calmly, "Don't worry, I have no use for your worthless life." "I have promised my family's Ava that I won't take lives easily. Now, I just want you to fulfill our bet." "You said the bracelet was too big to swallow, so I ground it into powder for you." "Now that you still refuse to eat it, do you think pretending to be pitiful will help you escape?" Lux Arden glanced at the pale-faced woman and urged her, "Besides, aren't you fond of money?" "Aren't you even a little curious about what it's like to taste one billion dollars?" The wealthy woman's face was as bitter as if she had swallowed several pounds of bitter herbs. She did love money, but she was not stupid enough to risk her own life to satisfy her curiosity! However, she didn't dare to argue with Lux Arden's at this moment, and could only keep kowtowing and begging for mercy. Louis, who was standing aside, st
