Chapter 179 Lin Fan's Powers

The purr of a luxury car's engine resonated through the villa area. The gates swung open, granting passage to the sleek vehicle that glided in, halting gracefully right in front of the villa.

Stepping out of the car, none other than Long Tian. He swiftly made his way into the villa, welcomed only by the embrace of solitude.

"Seems like Yue'er hasn't made it back yet. Good thing I've already had lunch," he murmured.

With that, he headed straight to the bathroom for a refreshing shower.

------------

As the evening approached, a cool breeze swept through the city of Tianzhou. Office workers, having completed their tasks, began their walk home, creating a serene atmosphere.

In a secluded nook of Tianzhou, a young man emerged from an alleyway.

His attire was plain, with a few tears here and there. His appearance was decent, and he was none other than Lin Fan.

A serious expression etched his face as he surveyed the surroundings. After confirming the coast was clear, he seamlessly blended into the flow of the city, walking with purpose.

His heightened alertness wasn't unwarranted. Earlier, within the confines of a casino, he found himself under attack by enigmatic figure clad in black.

It was a challenging battle. The mysterious attacker clearly intended to kill him, but fortunately, he managed to escape.

"Sigh, life has been getting more challenging lately," he reflected.

He continued strolling along the city outskirts amidst the crowd. Sometimes, simple activities like walking helped ease his mind. contemporary romance

At this moment, his brows arched as he noticed a gathering not far ahead, where a crowd had formed.

He halted one of the individuals rushing by. "Excuse me, I'd like to know what's happening over there in the crowd," he inquired with genuine curiosity.

"I'm not sure, but people are saying an old man collapsed," the passerby responded.

"Alright," Lin Fan nodded.

With that, the person hastened towards the commotion, and Lin Fan trailed behind.

As they approached, snippets of conversation became audible from the crowd, and upon witnessing the scene, Lin Fan was somewhat taken aback.

An elderly man lay on the ground, writhing in pain.

Several individuals attempted to lift him, but the old man's anguished cries forced them to step back.

Perplexity shrouded the onlookers.

"I believe we should call an ambulance. We're unsure of his condition."

"Yes, you're right. Mishandling this could endanger his life."

"Okay, I'll call for an ambulance immediately."

As these discussions echoed through the crowd, more people arrived, and the old man continued to suffer on the street.

"Allow me to take care of this!" suddenly, a voice reveberated.

All eyes shifted to the source, a young man in his twenties emerging from the crowd and striding toward the elderly man.

"Who are you?" someone inquired.

The young man, wearing a proud smile, replied, "I am Zhou Jin, the grandson of the renowned healer Zhou Yun," his tone brimming with pride.

Upon hearing this, many were surprised. Most were familiar with the illustrious name Zhou Yun, a living legend.

Although many recognized the name, some remained unaware of Zhou Yun's identity. Lin Fan was among them, but he simply crossed his arms, anticipating Zhou Jin's actions.

"Oh, you're young master Zhou Jin. Haha, forgive me for not recognizing you," the man said.

"No problem. Now, give me some space so I can treat him," Zhou Jin responded.

The man nodded, and then stepped aside along with some others, creating room.

On the other hand, relief washed over the old man as someone knowledgeable in medicine had arrived, especially the grandson of the legendary healer.

Zhou Jin, meanwhile, opened the old man's clothes and examined his abdomen, touching specific vital points.

After a few moments, a green color appeared at the tip of one of his fingers. He then tapped those vital points with his finger several times.

Each tap produced a small snapping sound, marking his finger hitting the vital points.

Onlookers watched in amazement. Some even recognized this technique. It was Zhou Yun's acupuncture technique.

After a while, Zhou Jin stopped, and then looked at the old man. The next moment...

"Cough!" the old man suddenly coughed up blood, splattering on his clothes and the ground.

Seeing this, everyone turned skeptical and surprised, questioning whether the old man was okay.

However, Zhou Jin promptly signaled for everyone to calm down. "Relax, this is a part of the healing technique. He was suffering from heart failure, and there are indeed side effects," he reassured.

While many nodded in understanding, some still felt something was off. The old man, on the other hand, seemed to be in more pain.

Zhou Jin raised his hand again, this time with two fingers gleaming green, ready to tap the old man's vital points again.

However, just as he was about to proceed, a sudden voice interrupted him, "Continuing will only lead to his death."

He furrowed his brow and looked to the side, "Who's speaking?" he asked, his tone growing displeased.

Some people stepped aside, revealing only Lin Fan standing calmly.

Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes; he had never seen Lin Fan before. "This is an emergency, so don't play games with me," he said, then refocused on healing the old man.

"Yes, but if you continue with that technique, you'll kill him. And you don't even know what you're doing; the old man doesn't have heart failure," Lin Fan responded, his tone calm and confident.

Zhou Jin became more displeased. Many others were also unhappy with Lin Fan's seemingly condescending words.

"This is why you need to learn. At least don't sleep during lessons at school," Zhou Jin sneered.

His words were followed by laughter from some people.

However, Lin Fan remained calm. "Well, go ahead with your technique. I bet the old man will cough up blood again. And if you keep doing it, the old man will really die," he responded confidently.

"Heh, now I'll show you," Zhou Jin said confidently.

With that, with his two fingers now surrounded by a green aura, he tapped various vital points on the old man's body.

The scene looked more like a performance, with more people crowding around.

Each tap of Zhou Jin's fingers produced a "Tack!" sound, and after a few taps, the old man coughed up blood again, this time with more blood spilling from his mouth.

Onlookers gasped, some covering their mouths unable to bear the sight of the bloody scene. More and more doubtful gazes from everyone were directed at Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin, however, looked panicked as his technique failed. As far as he remembered, the side effects should only occur once.

On the other hand, Lin Fan, seeing the situation as an opportunity, took action.

"See, you made the old man cough up blood again. And if you do it again, the old man will be truly dead. It would be hot news if the grandson of the legendary healer killed an old man. A failed successor would be an apt title," he said, a smirk gracing his face.

Wrinkles on Zhou Jin's forehead deepened, making him furious, also scared.

He then stood up, "Then, why don't you heal him? I want to see what you're capable of!" he said.

The smirk on Lin Fan's face widened. "Then, give me space," he said.

Zhou Jin snorted and then stepped aside. As Lin Fan approached the old man, onlookers watched curiously to see his abilities.

Lin Fan's gaze fixated on the old man, appearing frail with sunken cheeks and bloodstains around his mouth.

"You'll be fine, old man," Lin Fan reassured.

With that, he concentrated on scrutinizing the old man's entire body, as if conducting a thorough scan.

To others, it seemed ordinary. However, in Lin Fan's eyes, he perceived the old man's anatomy as if using X-ray vision.

This newfound ability is known as Golden Eyes! granting him the power to see through anything. Well, despite his wish to see through clothes...

After a few moments, his vision returned to normal. Now, he discerned the cause behind the old man's collapse and suffering.

He proceeded to retrieve seven acupuncture needles from his spatial ring.

Observing this, Zhou Jin swiftly retorted, "Do you plan to treat him with acupuncture needles? How foolish. You'll end up killing him. Heart failure can't be cured with needles," he remarked condescendingly.

Many nodded in agreement, casting doubt on Lin Fan's actions.

Nevertheless, Lin Fan remained composed. "Just watch this," he confidently declared.

He inserted the needles into various points on the old man's body, standing with only their tips piercing the skin.

Following that, Lin Fan positioned his hands over the seven needles and concentrated. In the next moment, he applied a slight pressure, causing all the needles to penetrate the vital points a bit deeper.

"Urkh!" the old man immediately groaned in pain.

Lin Fan promptly stabilized the needles, ensuring they didn't penetrate too deeply.

Observing the old man in distress, Zhou Jin hastily remarked, "See, you're going to kill him! You better stop before it's too late!" he urged, garnering agreement from some.

"Stop him!" Zhou Jin insisted.

His words prompted some to approach.

"Hey, kid, quickly stop before the old man dies!" one of them exclaimed.

"Shut up! I'm trying to focus!" Lin Fan shouted.

His outburst caused the person to halt, instilling doubt in everyone.

Unfazed, Lin Fan, after a few moments, delivered a strong strike to the old man's solar plexus, creating a resounding impact.

The old man gasped at Lin Fan's sudden punch, immediately losing consciousness.

Shock reverberated through everyone witnessing the scene.

"He killed the old man!" Zhou Jin shouted.

Angry stares immediately covered everyone.

"Scoundrel, murderer!"

"Catch him!"

Angry voices echoed, and some even seized Lin Fan from behind, forcefully bringing him down.

Zhou Jin's face displayed a sly satisfaction. "Now, you've truly killed him. That's why you need to learn before you act," he sneered.

"Heh, just watch the old man," Lin Fan confidently stated.

While Zhou Jin's expression remained condescending, he turned his attention to the old man. Surprise enveloped his face as he witnessed a black aura emanating from the old man's mouth.

Everyone, including the person who had apprehended Lin Fan, released their grip on him.

The black aura intensified, pouring out like dark smoke from the old man's mouth.

"Argh!" the old man suddenly screamed, causing the black aura to intensify even more.

All eyes remained fixed on the old man until, after a few moments, the black aura dissipated.

The old man abruptly woke up, wearing a bewildered expression. "I-I'm healed!" he exclaimed in disbelief.

The revelation astonished everyone. Lin Fan's acupuncture technique had unexpectedly worked.

Even Zhou Jin, whose expression now displayed disbelief at the old man's recovery.

He approached quickly, patting the old man's shoulder. "Hey, old man, are you really okay? I'm glad I assisted you earlier; that kid nearly killed you by hitting you," he said.

However, the old man's face portrayed displeasure. "Don't touch me!" he retorted, pushing Zhou Jin's hand away.

"You're the one trying to kill me! Luckily, that young man came to stop you," he continued.

Zhou Jin's expression darkened upon hearing this. Before he could respond, the old man stood up and walked towards Lin Fan, helping him stand.

Filled with gratitude, the old man inquired, "What's your name, son?"

"Lin Fan," Lin Fan replied.

"Great. I'm very grateful you helped me; I feel much healthier than before!" the old man expressed with joy.

"Hehe, it's nothing," Lin Fan smiled.

The old man's smile widened at Lin Fan's humility. "As a token of appreciation, I will give you a gift. And perhaps everyone here doesn't know who I am. Let me introduce myself. My name is Jun Li, one of the founders of one of the grandest auctions in the Han Empire, Tianfa Auctions," he declared.

This revelation left everyone shocked. Tianfa Auctions... The name was so famous that almost everyone knew it. Standing here was one of its owners.

Zhou Jin also appeared surprised, remaining silent as he hadn't expected the old man to possess such an extraordinary identity. He now regretted not being able to heal Jun Li. Lin Fan, although surprised, felt pleased to have successfully healed Jun Li.

"And now, Lin Fan, let's take a walk. I want to chat with you about many things," Jun Li proposed.

Without further ado, he draped an arm over Lin Fan's shoulder, and together, they strolled out of the crowd, rendering everyone utterly silent.
