Huang Bin’s name was quite well-known in Jinling, not because Huang Bin himself was particularly formidable, but because he had a great master—the Divine Physician of Huaxia.
Legend had it that there was no ailment the Divine Physician of Huaxia couldn’t cure!
Yet, the more this was the case, the more uneasy Teacher Liu became.
She timidly said, "Sun Envoy, you are too kind to me, and it makes me uneasy. If you don’t explain the reason, I won’t go with you to see Huang Bin."
Truly a stubborn girl.
Dong Gang said, "The reason is actually quite simple. Is your name Liu Ling? Is your father named Liu Jianxun?"
Liu Ling nodded affirmatively, "Yes, how do you know?"
"Of course I know," Dong Gang said. "Because your father was once my squad leader. Back when we were resisting the rebels in the northwest, your father saved my life."
"Ah?"
Liu Ling never expected that Dong Gang had served under her father.
It was a pity that five years ago, Liu Jianxun had died for his country fighting alongside the Dragon Warlord against the allied forces of the ten great empires. It was precisely because of this that Liu Ling's family had fallen into such hardship.
Dong Gang said, "Because I was severely wounded back then, I couldn't follow Old Squad Leader and the Dragon Warlord to fight the imperial allied forces. That is the regret of my life."
So that was it.
It was no wonder Dong Gang would step in to help Liu Ling.
However…
In Liu Ling's eyes, the White Lotus Sect was entirely a deceptive and harmful organization. Why would someone as upright as Dong Gang join such an organization?
"Sun Envoy, can't you leave the White Lotus Sect?" Liu Ling asked.
Dong Gang smiled, "Actually, the White Lotus Sect is very complicated, not as simple as you see it. Kidnapping women and forcing them into prostitution were all personal acts of that bastard Shi Hengxiao; he blackened the White Lotus Sect's name. What I do in the White Lotus Sect is for the benefit of the people and the nation! I am different from the likes of Shi Hengxiao!"
Uh…
In truth, Liu Ling didn't quite understand.
Finally, she said, "So, Sun Envoy, you have lofty aspirations. Then I have nothing more to say. I choose to believe you."
Dong Gang said, "Alright, you’ll come with me to see Huang Bin and try to get rid of the Life and Death Talisman in your body."
"Mm!"
Afterward, the two got into the car and headed for Huang Bin's medical station.
Their entire conversation was overheard by the people Qiao Da had sent. Upon receiving the news, Qiao Da immediately told Moon Envoy Shi Hengxiao everything.
Shi Hengxiao sat on his dragon bed and snorted coldly.
"So Liu Ling's dad was the old squad leader of that big guy. I was wondering why this man who never seemed interested in women would suddenly fight me for one."
"To say I blackened the White Lotus Sect’s name, and that he wants to achieve great things, pfft!"
"You dog, acting like you’re the only great one in the world and everyone else is a villain. Go to hell! Dong Gang, you just wait. One day, I’ll plant the Life and Death Talisman in you, and you'll beg me on your knees!"
…
Meanwhile, Dong Gang brought Liu Ling to the medical station and successfully met Huang Bin, the direct disciple of the Divine Physician of Huaxia.
Afterward, Dong Gang chose to leave, leaving Liu Ling alone in the medical station. After all, Dong Gang had a special identity and couldn't linger around like an ordinary person.
The moment Huang Bin saw Liu Ling, he became serious and tense.
He sent away the other patients and took Liu Ling to the inner room, even closing the door, making it seem very mysterious.
Without Liu Ling having to speak, Huang Bin directly asked, "No beating around the bush, I'll ask you directly, were you afflicted with the Life and Death Talisman by the White Lotus Sect?"
Amazing!
He identified the problem at a glance. Truly worthy of being the disciple of the Divine Physician of Huaxia.
Liu Ling nodded affirmatively and said, "Moreover, I've been poisoned deeply and I'm afraid I won't live for more than a week. Doctor Huang, please save me, I don't want to die."
No one wanted to die.
The problem was, if it could be cured, so many people wouldn't have suffered to the point of death.
Huang Bin said rather awkwardly, "To be honest, before you, someone else came to me with the same condition, tormented to the brink of death by the Life and Death Talisman. But my medical skills are not good enough, and I was helpless against the Life and Death Talisman, so I couldn't cure that person. Therefore…"
Huang Bin looked at Liu Ling apologetically. The meaning was clear without him needing to say more, and Liu Ling roughly understood.
"Alas… perhaps, this is fate." Liu Ling sighed, even the direct disciple of the Divine Physician of Huaxia was helpless. It seemed this Life and Death Talisman was truly incurable.
Fine, fine.
"If that's the case, then I won't disturb you." Liu Ling stood up, extremely disappointed, and prepared to leave.
Suddenly.
Huang Bin frowned and said, "My medical skills might not be enough, but that doesn't mean my master's skills aren't. Liu Ling, you are quite lucky. My master just returned to Jinling today. If he were to make a move, perhaps the Life and Death Talisman in your body could be resolved!"
Liu Ling trembled with excitement upon hearing this.
That was the Divine Physician of Huaxia! There was no illness he couldn't cure!
It was truly fortunate that she met the Divine Physician just as he returned to Jinling.
Liu Ling asked, "Then can you arrange for me to meet the Divine Physician of Huaxia and have him examine me?"
"I'll contact Master right away. Please wait."
Huang Bin quietly stepped aside, took out his phone, and dialed Lu Ming's number. After explaining the situation in detail, he received a positive reply from Lu Ming.
Perfect!
Huang Bin made an 'ok' gesture to Liu Ling, and Liu Ling's face was filled with joy.
After patiently waiting for two hours, as darkness fully fell, a robust man walked into the medical station.
The man looked to be around 30 years old.
Initially, Liu Ling thought he was a patient. Who knew that the person was actually the 'Divine Physician of Huaxia' that Huang Bin mentioned!
Liu Ling was greatly startled. She hadn't expected the Divine Physician of Huaxia to be so young.
According to her imagination, the Divine Physician of Huaxia should be at least 50, or even sixty or seventy years old. She never expected him to be so young, which was truly unexpected.
The three of them closed the medical station and went into the inner room.
Lu Ming asked Liu Ling to extend her hand and then took her pulse. It was indeed the Life and Death Talisman, almost identical to Xu Qin's situation.
The difference was that Liu Ling's physical constitution was much healthier than Xu Qin's, so she could endure it better.
If it were Xu Qin, she would probably already be bedridden and unable to move.
Yet, even with Liu Ling's better physical condition, she was tormented to the brink of death.
After a long while.
Liu Ling nervously asked, "Divine Physician, can the Life and Death Talisman in my body be resolved?"
For the first time, Lu Ming showed a rare expression of difficulty. He sat there without saying a word, like a weathered statue.
It's difficult!
Liu Ling's heart sank. If even the Divine Physician of Huaxia was helpless, then truly no one in the world could remove the Life and Death Talisman.
"My life is so bitter." Liu Ling cried out sadly.
