Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

Seeing this, everyone’s expressions became serious.

The offspring of the Deputy Sect Leader of the Celestial Sword Sect, even if they’re not talented, they mustn’t have any accidents...

Jiang Ling’Er’s beautiful face had turned somewhat unpleasant.

In a competition without physical harm, how did it result in hysteria?

In such cases, it’s generally hard to blame others.

However, if this person is the Deputy Sect Leader’s offspring, it’s another story.

To some extent, the blame would fall on her.

Even though the Jiang Family can protect Jiang Ling’Er, offending the higher-ups of the Celestial Sword Sect is still disadvantageous to her cultivation there.

Outwardly, there may be nothing, but covertly, there might be targeted hostility.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling’Er reached out and held her aunt’s hand.

Li Li’s medical skills are well-regarded even within the Celestial Sword Sect.

But this time, Hall Master Li could only show a touch of helplessness on her face.

"This kind of hysteria, the main thing is still the individual...

The healer can only assist, helping him recover..."

As they spoke, the Celestial Sword Sect disciple lying on the ground was breathing more heavily.

His eyes seemed to show only the whites, with the pupils almost invisible.

Seeing this, Shen Han hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward.

"Open his mouth, don’t let him bite his own tongue.

His mind is in disarray, descending into confusion.

It must be...

Before Shen Han could finish, he was pushed aside by the old servant from before.

"Where do you come from, brat? Do you know medical skills?

If something happens to my Young Master because of your treatment, can you take responsibility?

We’re going back to the Celestial Sword Sect immediately, back to the Celestial Sword Sect!"

As he spoke, the old servant tried to pick up the Deputy Sect Leader’s son.

Shen Han didn’t stop him.

"Good intentions to help, but they hold you accountable. Whoever wants to help can help then."

Shen Han shrugged helplessly and retreated into the crowd.

The old servant seemed to look down on Star Tower and everyone present.

He was preparing to take his Young Master away, but before he could lift him up, blood was already oozing from his mouth.

He quickly forced open his Young Master’s mouth, which was full of blood.

His teeth were fiercely biting his own tongue.

Seeing this, the surrounding people were terrified.

If there was no outside interference, he might bite off his own tongue.

Going back to the Celestial Sword Sect? His life might be gone before they arrive.

Beside him, Jiang Ling’Er hurriedly stepped in to prevent him from biting off his own tongue.

This condition, in a way, was related to her.

But how exactly to treat this hysteria...

Jiang Ling’Er looked at her aunt, then at Shen Han.

It seemed Shen Han had a way just now.

But if her aunt couldn’t do it, could he?

As Jiang Ling’Er was about to speak, several other Celestial Sword Sect disciples nearby started talking.

"Senior Sister Jiang, you’re not planning to let a Star Tower disciple help with treatment, are you?

If even a healer is helpless, could a disciple possibly succeed?"

With one sentence, many Celestial Sword Sect disciples chimed in.

But the next moment, the Deputy Sect Leader’s offspring started convulsing.

His whole body began trembling, and blue veins bulged on his skin.

Seeing this, Shen Han glanced at the crowd, then at Li Li and Jiang Ling’Er.

He reached for Hall Master Li’s medical box.

Took out a large needle.

First needle to the skin, second to the flesh, third to the pulse, fourth to the tendons, fifth to the bones, sixth to balance yin and yang, seventh for nourishing essence, eighth to dispel wind, ninth to clear the nine orifices.

The Nine Needles of Lingshu, the ninth needle, the large needle.

The ninth needle, the large needle, is the method to clear the acupoints.

Without minding others’ remarks, Shen Han inserted the large needle.

The energy surged through the acupoint, bringing about a sense of relief throughout the body.

This Celestial Sword Sect disciple finally showed a hint of recovery.

His previously flushed face gradually returned to normal.

His body slowly calmed down, and the blue veins on his arms receded.

It seemed to really have worked.

After pulling out the large needle and placing it back into the box, Shen Han looked up at Hall Master Li.

"Hall Master Li, could you take him back to your courtyard for recuperation? He may have injured himself during the confusion.

Perhaps you could check on him."

Shen Han spoke softly.

Li Li, who usually spoke with a touch of charm and ambiguity, adopted a complete shift in demeanor. When it came to medicine and treating the injured, she became incredibly serious and reliable.

"Hmm, let’s first head to my courtyard and get him some nourishing soup and medicine."

With that, Li Li instructed someone to carry the injured Celestial Sword Sect disciple away.

The old servant followed, looking visibly uneasy.

Previously, he had scolded Shen Han harshly, yet it was Shen Han who had helped in the end.

Logically, he should apologize.

But looking at Shen Han, the old servant opened his mouth slightly yet said nothing.

Shen Han noticed his expression, smiled, and nodded, acknowledging the gesture as an apology.

Watching her aunt leave, Jiang Ling’Er glanced at Shen Han.

In her heart, she felt a slight gratitude.

If not for her involvement, Shen Han probably wouldn’t have helped him.

Jiang Ling’Er thought this as she took two steps toward Shen Han.

"Thank you..."

After saying thank you, Shen Han was about to speak, but she had already fled, chasing after Li Li.

Beside him, those Celestial Sword Sect disciples who had previously spoken derogatorily of Shen Han pursed their lips.

They turned their heads and chose to leave silently.

They had not expected that Shen Han would solve the problem with just one needle.

That needle clearly demonstrated a mastery of the Medical Path.

Having their faces slapped made them feel somewhat embarrassed, but admitting they had been talking nonsense earlier was out of the question.

After the disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect left, a group of Star Tower disciples gathered around.

In their words, they all praised Shen Han for being amazing.

They didn’t expect he was skilled in the Medical Path.

Embarking on the path of medicine, even if encountering a bottleneck in cultivation, the future is still limitless.

In everyone’s heart, Shen Han gained a label of being skilled in medicine.

In fact, he was now even more respected than before.

Today’s Star Tower training ended early because of this accident.

If they want to start again, they must wait for three months.

After everyone left, Shen Han also returned to his own courtyard.

Through today’s training, he gained a better understanding of his strength.

The direct disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect before him, Jiang Ling’Er.

Shen Han knew she did not exert her full strength during the Star Tower training.

But her techniques, her own and her Divine Soul’s strength, would not be his match.

Without those strange and exquisite magical treasures, she might not last two rounds under his hands.

If the direct disciple of a sect in the Inner Domain is only so,

then his current strength should be considered superior.

The likes of Zheng Changnian from Cangxuan Valley are certainly not his match.

Shen Han had never seen Zheng Changnian in action, so he had little concept of his strength.

Perhaps before he had a Divine Soul, he was a notch below.

But looking at it now, he is definitely not weaker than him.

After the Celestial Sword Sect disciples finished their training at the Star Tower, they all left.

Only Jiang Ling’Er and the injured Celestial Sword Sect disciple remained in Li Li’s courtyard recuperating.

Shen Han did not immediately go to visit them; instead, he spent the next two days cultivating and improving in his own courtyard.

...

Cangxuan Valley.

Zheng Changnian had been in closed-door cultivation for over a month, and today he finally came out for some fresh air.

The time in seclusion wasn’t long, but Zheng Changnian felt that this period of seclusion was quite fruitful.

However, there were some doubts in his heart that required the guidance of the Mansion Masters in the valley.

Walking out of his courtyard, Zheng Changnian stretched his body.

He waited for a while but saw no one coming.

Today, being out of seclusion, Ying Jiu, his older brother, and Guan Yutang should have known.

But the empty front of the courtyard left Zheng Changnian feeling a bit puzzled.

After hesitating for a moment, he called over an Outer Sect disciple working in the distance to inquire about the reason.

This Outer Sect disciple often did odd jobs in Zheng Changnian’s courtyard and was quite familiar.

"Has something happened in the mansion recently?

Why haven’t Ying Jiu and the others come?"

Upon hearing this, the Outer Sect disciple saluted Zheng Changnian before speaking.

"While Senior Brother Zheng was in seclusion, some things indeed happened in the sect.

There were some unexpected events in the Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Changnian was not surprised.

This year’s Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition had Ying Jiu representing Cangxuan Valley.

To be honest, Zheng Changnian was not very confident in Ying Jiu’s abilities.

She could only be said to have some skills, but her true strength was far inferior to the top talents Cangxuan Valley had before.

The so-called unexpected event should refer to Ying Jiu losing in a match.

Zheng Changnian looked up at the Outer Sect disciple beside him: "Did Ying Jiu lose in the match?"

The Outer Sect disciple nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Who did she lose to?

Bifeng Mansion or a disciple of the Star Tower?

These two sects seem to have quite formidable disciples in this generation.

It wouldn’t be surprising if Ying Jiu lost to them, and it’s hardly unexpected."

Zheng Changnian sat on a stone chair beside him, appearing indifferent.

Hearing him say this, the Outer Sect disciple hurriedly spoke.

"Senior Brother Zheng, you guessed wrong. The one who defeated Senior Sister Ying Jiu was a disciple from Snow Manor named Qin Tianlang.

He singlehandedly won six consecutive matches, defeating all those who challenged him afterward..."

Zheng Changnian, who had just sat down, stood up again upon hearing this.

"Won six consecutive matches?

A disciple of Snow Manor? How is that possible?"

Zheng Changnian frowned, thinking that without witnessing it firsthand, many people might not believe this was true.

"Are you sure it’s a disciple of Snow Manor and that he won six consecutive matches singlehandedly?"

Zheng Changnian couldn’t help but ask again, still not daring to believe.

The Outer Sect disciple, however, was very certain.

"Senior Brother Zheng, most people in the sect witnessed the Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition that day.

If you don’t believe me, you can ask anyone, and they can all vouch for it."

His words were firm and didn’t seem fabricated.

Zheng Changnian licked his lips, still having some unresolved questions.

"With the Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition lost and Ying Jiu confined, that makes sense.

But why haven’t my brother and Guan Yutang come to see me?"

The Outer Sect disciple hesitated at this moment...
