After the paper man revealed the truth, Huang Xiaolong returned Qiu Xuan’s spirit into his body. After all, Qiu Xuan would fall terribly ill if his spirit had left his body for too long.

Huang Xiaolong could not be bothered to punish Qiu Xuan as bad people will eventually get what they deserve.

Once Qiu Xuan’s soul returned to his body, he swung his head and came to his senses. He burst into tears with a loud “WAH” and immediately kneeled on the floor, clutching Director Qiu’s leg while crying loudly. “Godfather, I was wrong… Lil Xuan was wrong… it was Lil Xuan who was blinded to the desires of the flesh and lost his mind, which caused him to do such an insane thing… Godfather, I was wrong, please give me another chance… It’s all Godmother’s fault… she seduced Lil Xuan repeatedly… boohoo…Godfather, please forgive Lil Xuan this once. Lil Xuan will never dare to do such a thing ever again…”

The young wife’s face was ashen as she spoke in a trembling voice, “Qiu Xuan! You b*stard! Are you saying it was me who seduced you? It was clearly you who approached me…. husband, I… I was forced to do it, I had no choice… forgive me! Husband, please, I beg you to forgive me!”

The young and beautiful woman had tears running down her face as she begged for mercy on her knees, completely disregarding any dignity. Despite the many people watching, she repeatedly bashed her forehead onto the ground as a form of kowtow to Director Qiu.

Director Qiu’s face was icy, and one of his eyes twitched continuously; there was a flicker of murderous intent exuding them. His face was twisted in fury, but he did not explode on the spot, and instead mildly addressed Hong Quantao. “Quantao, let me borrow two of your men to drag them out first.”

“Of course, Director Qiu.” Hong Quantao took out his phone and made a call.

Soon, several tough-looking security guards rushed in and dragged Qiu Xuan and the wife out.

“Ah…” Director Qiu sighed in frustration and said self-deprecatingly, “How embarrassing, today I’ve embarrassed myself in front of all of you…ugh… An outsider is ultimately still an outsider, when they are not of your own blood, they can’t be trusted… despite my best efforts to always be on my guard, it’s hard to protect myself against my own family.”

“Old Qiu, you shouldn’t spare any lingering affection for this kind of immoral brute, just directly give him—” An old man similar in age to Director Qiu with a fierce face, extended his right hand, straightened his palm and made a chopping motion.

“I will handle it.” Director Qiu nodded. Then, looking at Huang Xiaolong, he stood up shakily. “My young friend, thank you so much. If you did not expose them, I would have remained in the dark until the end and might have unknowingly helped complete this wretched couple. If I showed any disrespect earlier, please forgive me. Also… young friend, the method you used earlier was really amazing… a talking paper man. Tsk tsk, I have never even heard of this kind of miracle before, let alone seen it!”

“Hehehe, these are just little tricks, little tricks.” Huang Xiaolong pulled Su Xiaoman along and sat on the mahogany sofa. “Old Uncle Qiu, there’s no need to keep standing, sit down, sit down, it was no big deal. We village folk just cannot stand for such nasty things.”

At this moment, everybody in the private room focused their attention on Huang Xiaolong!

Awe! Respect! Worship! Praise!

Their opinion of Huang Xiaolong had made a 180-degree turn!

Their earlier disdain and contempt had been tossed into the Pacific Ocean; each of them looked at Huang Xiaolong with a new expression—

“That was simply magical! Young master, that move earlier was just marvelous!”

“Out of this world! Young master, you are truly out of this world!”

“Young Master, you may look ordinary, but you have amazed us all with your brilliant feat!”

“Young Master, your so-called little trick, from our perspective is an ingenious and supernatural talent!”

…

The so-called Taoism is imaginary from an ordinary person’s viewpoint. It all exists only in legends, and people have rarely seen in person. Hence, people believe that it is a gimmick and mere superstition. Hence, the shock brought upon after seeing it with one’s own eyes is unparalleled, maybe even subversive!

The people in the private room were all tycoons and nobles belonging to the upper class of Coast City. Now, they had the utmost reverence and admiration for Huang Xiaolong. 

Of course, rare things were precious and valuable; the same could be said with people.

Seeing how the tables had turned, Huang Quantao and Zou Shi glowed with pride, thinking privately, ‘Are you convinced now?’

Su Xiaoman was even more mesmerized, treating Huang Xiaolong with complete worship.

Hong Quantao took the opportunity to speak. “Everyone, the miracle doctor is a man of substance, he is a mystical being! If you have any problems, please feel free to seek the miracle doctor’s help. Here, I can even reveal a secret to everybody—this master is the one and only miracle doctor!”

As soon as he said this, the private room fell silent all of a sudden.

The incident of Lin Jing rising from the dead had been circulated in Coast City’s upper social circle ages ago. Nosey parkers had even described the mystical person who saved Lin Jing to be a god-like immortal roaming amongst the living and the dead!

No one in the private room could have guessed that this was actually Huang Xiaolong’s doing!

If Hong Quantao had said this when Huang Xiaolong first entered the private room, nobody would have believed him. On the contrary, they would have mocked such a claim. But now, after having seen Huang Xiaolong’s techniques, everybody was completely convinced!

And at this moment!

“Miracle doctor! Save me!” The voice of a breathless and sickly man was heard.

Looking at the direction of the voice, everyone saw that the man speaking was a man in his forties, with a deathly pale face and sickly appearance. His body was very withered and was little more than skin and bones.

However, the strangest part was his back… uh, it was a hunched back.

It was not bent the usual way but quite severely at that. He was bent at almost 90-degrees, as though there was a mountain pressing on his back, overwhelming him with the heavy load.

“Miracle Doctor, please save me, my hunched back is getting more unbearable day by day, and it is torturing me to death…” the hunchback begged tearfully.

Hong Quantao leaned toward Huang Xiaolong and whispered. “Miracle Doctor, this is Boss Xu of ‘Shuanglong Household Furniture’. He used to be a very energetic person, but for unknown reasons, he had a strange illness a few years ago which caused him to develop a hunched back overnight. He became thinner as the days went by. To cure his illness, he has sought medical attention both within the country and abroad. Despite having spent a lot of money, many well-known big hospitals were not even able to find the cause for his illness, let alone treat him.

This weird hunchback illness that Boss Xu had contracted was also a horrifying tale in the social circle that everyone knew about. Be it the United States, Canada, or Germany, Boss Xu had made trips to the hospitals in all these developed Western countries, but it was all for naught. Hence, whenever this topic was brought up, everyone present merely shook their heads, privately thinking that Boss Xu was already done for in this lifetime.

Now, Boss Xu was asking Huang Xiaolong for help. Everyone in the private room grew excited, eager to witness Huang Xiaolong’s medical skills and judge whether his skills were truly as impressive as the rumors claimed.

After all, the act of him healing Hong Quantao, Zou Shi and Lin Jing was mere hearsay; they had not seen it with their own eyes.

“Uh…” Huang Xiaolong stared at Boss Xu intently and immediately felt a trace of yin energy lingering around him.

Huang Xiaolong’s pupils constricted. He suddenly saw a plump old woman on top of Boss Xu’s back, with her arms wrapped around Boss Xu’s neck.

A spirit!

Boss Xu was actually carrying a spirit on his back!

No wonder his back was bent forcefully, and the hospitals were not able to come up with anything. F*ck this was not even an illness!

However, the old woman spirit did not look hostile or resentful, and instead looked kind and loving. Her gaze at Boss Xu was one of loving indulgence.

This was clearly the gaze of a loving mum looking at her precious son!

‘Oh, I see, this old woman is probably Boss Xu’s mother. She was reluctant to leave her son after passing away and therefore lingered around in the living world. It is precisely because of this mother-child bond that she never harmed anyone. However, this was not right. If an ordinary person were to be in contact with a ghost for too long, the yang energy in his body would reduce over time. For example, Boss Xu’s mother has actually been relying on Boss Xu’s yang energy to nourish her spiritual body. Hence, while her son was becoming thinner, she was becoming fatter. If this were to continue, within 2 years, Boss Xu will wither away and die…’

“Uh… Boss Xu, right?” Huang Xiaolong did some mental calculations. “I can treat your illness. I only need half an hour to cure you and I will charge you 5000 bucks. Do you want to be treated?”

Boom!

The statement created shock waves across the room!

Was Huang Xiaolong able to treat an illness that big hospitals within all over the world had been unable to in only half an hour?

And he was only charging 5000 bucks!

The people in the private room were dumbfounded, bemused, and utterly stunned!

There were some people who could not help but feel a little skeptical.

By now, no one doubted that Huang Xiaolong could treat Boss Xu’s hunched back, but to heal him in only half an hour seemed impossible!

“I… I…” Boss Xu was not too confident himself but he knew he had nothing to lose. He gritted his teeth. “Miracle doctor, I want to be treated! I will pay the 5000!”

“Alright!” Huang Xiaolong stood and rolled up his sleeves. “Let’s get to work!”

He took out a manifestation charm from his pants pocket. “Well, those who are squeamish should leave the private room immediately. I will not be responsible if I scare you later.”

Everyone in the private room looked at each other doubtfully but no one got up to leave.

Huang Xiaolong turned his head to look at Su Xiaoman. “Sis Xiaoman, there’s gonna be something scary. If you are afraid, you can wait for me outside.”

“It’s okay, I’m not afraid. With Xiaolong here, I’m not afraid of anything,” Su Xiaoman said with a resolute glint in her eyes. 

“Alright~” Huang Xiaolong shook his hand and the manifestation charm burst into flames.

A flash of golden light streaked across the private room.
