When getting into Cao Long’s business car and driving back to the entrance of the Cao Family courtyard, Ye Qiu noticed there were indeed many cars parked outside, all luxury cars like Mercedes and BMWs.

Ye Qiu, Liu Lingxiu, the three women, and Cao Ling got out of the car and followed Cao Long inside. As soon as they entered the Cao Family courtyard, they saw many people, both men and women, old and young.

Apparently, Cao Long bringing Cao Ling and Liu Lingxiu inside was quite a surprise.

Especially for Cao Ling.

Although Cao Ling was a member of the Cao Family, she hadn’t returned for a year. Unexpectedly, seeing such a beautiful woman appear now, they could hardly believe this was indeed Cao Ling.

As Cao Long led Cao Ling to greet the elders and uncles, Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu’s three women sat outside.

After about ten minutes, Ye Qiu saw some elderly men in their sixties and seventies, looking about the same age as Old Cao, approach him.

"This is Dr. Ye Qiu,"

Cao Ling said.

"Dr. Ye, you said you could cure Third Grandfather’s condition?"

According to the Cao Family’s current hierarchy, this Third Grandfather had the highest seniority and was the oldest.

If a family is very poor, they might not be able to take care of the elderly, but if a wealthy extended family respects and reveres elders, then the elderly become a treasure of the family.

"Yes."

Ye Qiu said.

Ye Qiu didn’t want to elaborate on the specifics of the treatment.

Now that Ye Qiu said this, the elders were temporarily somewhat convinced because they had heard from Cao Ling that Ye Qiu had easily cured Old Cao’s and her uncle’s tetanus.

By the time dinner was served around eight in the evening, a few chefs had been invited to help at the Cao Family.

Now, Ye Qiu, Liu Lingxiu’s three women, Cao Ling, and some of the Cao elders were sitting at a table for dinner.

The dishes were abundant, with meat, seafood, and more.

However, with so many people dining together now, Ye Qiu realized it was just like the time when they were moving into the new mansion, and they ate at a hotel.

After dinner, it was already past nine in the evening.

Ye Qiu decided to have the first contact with Third Grandfather. After all, given his condition, he could pass away at any moment, ready to meet his ancestors.

As Ye Qiu and Cao Ling headed to Third Grandfather’s residence, the younger members of the Cao Family followed, having heard that Ye Qiu was going to treat Third Grandfather.

When they reached the door, Ye Qiu said, "You all wait outside; I’ll treat him alone."

Ye Qiu didn’t want them following or watching.

Inside, 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Third Grandfather had already been unable to eat, relying entirely on intravenous feeding for nutrition.

Now, as Ye Qiu entered, he only saw a nurse assisting with wiping Third Grandfather’s body.

Even with the air conditioning on during this summer, a person still felt very hot, and Third Grandfather’s internal organs had begun to decay, producing a mix of secretion and the stench of death from his skin that was quite unbearable.

Were it not for the nurse being accustomed to serving such elders, younger nursing staff might have been nauseated.

As Ye Qiu asked the nurse to leave and closed the door, the smell inside became even more apparent.

Compared to a few hours ago, Third Grandfather’s internal organs seemed to be decaying faster.

The thick stench of death permeated the air, which was unbearable for most people.

Ye Qiu looked at the sleeping elder.

He extended his hand directly onto the elder’s chest, absorbing the continuous flow of death energy from his body.

Now, Ye Qiu first absorbed the elder’s death energy.

Then, tomorrow, he planned to help restore his internal organs.

After absorbing the death energy, about an hour had passed, and the elder looked somewhat different than before.

As Ye Qiu opened the door, the Cao Family members hurried in, and they noticed that Third Grandfather did indeed look somewhat different on the bed, though they couldn’t pinpoint exactly what had changed.

However, after checking his blood pressure and heart rate, they found significant differences compared to before.

"I will come back tomorrow to continue the treatment, and in three days, I guarantee he’ll be like a person in their fifties or sixties."

Having said that, Ye Qiu prepared to leave.

At this point, the Cao Family was treating a dead horse as if it were alive; in Third Grandfather’s situation, he would surely die without treatment, but with treatment, there might be hope of recovery.

They did not know how Ye Qiu had treated him just now.

As Ye Qiu, Liu Lingxiu’s three women, and Cao Ling prepared to return to the Wangfujing Hotel to rest, Cao Long personally drove the five of them back in the business car.

Upon arriving at the hotel entrance, Cao Long said, "Dr. Ye, I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow."

"Actually, if you could arrange a small car for me, that would be even better. I plan to take my friends out for some fun during this time."

"Of course, no problem."

Now renting a car in the Capital City is very convenient, as long as you have a driver’s license.

Moreover, given the Cao Family’s situation, arranging a small car for Ye Qiu was a trivial matter.

"Dr. Ye, I’ll arrange it right away."

Cao Long made a call to have a BMW brought over.

Ye Qiu, Liu Lingxiu’s three women, and Cao Ling went upstairs, and Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu went into their room.

In fact, flying directly from Jinling to the Capital City only took two hours, not very far, and the trip wasn’t very exhausting.

However, since Liu Lingxiu and the others were mere mortals, Ye Qiu asked Liu Lingxiu to take a shower first and rest early.

On the balcony, Ye Qiu looked out at the stunningly beautiful and brilliant night view of the Capital City. The moonlight overhead was quite pleasant tonight.

Ye Qiu had not forgotten about cultivation breakthroughs. Every time he treated someone, it consumed a significant amount of spiritual energy and True Qi.

It’s like a law of energy conservation; the spiritual energy absorbed from outside isn’t infinite and can indeed be depleted when used.

Moreover, each breakthrough follows a process from quantitative to qualitative change, another aspect of energy conservation.

Liu Lingxiu took her pajamas and private clothing to prepare for a shower, when Ye Qiu recalled the surveillance cameras he encountered in the hotel.

"Lingshow, let me thoroughly check first for any hidden surveillance cameras."

After meticulously inspecting and confirming no hidden cameras, Ye Qiu let Liu Lingxiu go shower.

Ye Qiu left the room and went to Xiaomai and Lin Xiang’s room, surprising the two women with his visit.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Lin Xiang asked.

She was just about to undress for a shower.

"I’m checking for any surveillance cameras," Ye Qiu said. "Honestly, I don’t fully trust five-star hotels here."

Additionally, some surveillance cameras were secretly installed by guests, unbeknownst to the hotel.
