Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 296: Prolonging Life [Second Update]
At last night’s gathering, Lan Cai’s actions had crossed Lan Shili’s bottom line.
And now, she had even colluded with an outsider, intending to harm the old master, filling Lan Shili’s heart with rage.
"Lan Cai, do you still have the Lan Family in your heart?" Lan Shili shouted angrily.

Lan Cai was taken aback, not understanding why her uncle suddenly erupted in such fury, while Lan Hetu coldly sneered to himself, taking delight in the calamity.
Li Xiaoyao had already released his intention, sending a wisp of thought into the sickroom. Under the influence of his intention, the weak vitality of Lan Shanwen lay completely exposed before Li Xiaoyao’s eyes.
No more delay was possible; if they waited any longer, the old man probably wouldn’t live past half an hour.
"Your grandfather is about to die. I am going to save him," Li Xiaoyao said indifferently, as he stepped toward the sickroom.
Lan Shili was furious, "Stop him!"
The juniors of the Lan Family immediately stepped forward, forming a human wall, preventing Li Xiaoyao from advancing a single step further.
"Hmph! A bunch of mortals daring to stop me!" Li Xiaoyao snorted disdainfully, waving his hand as if swatting flies, and a group of people were instantly sent flying to either side.
"Lan Cai, why aren’t you stopping him?" Lan Shili, seeing that he was losing control of the situation, bellowed, "If anything happens to the old master today, you will be the Lan Family’s sinner!"
Hesitating in her expression, Lan Cai eventually stood beside Li Xiaoyao and said, "I believe in him!"
"Good for nothing!" Unable to bear it any longer, Lan Shili rapidly approached, attempting to stop Li Xiaoyao.
By now, Li Xiaoyao had already pushed open the door and entered the sickroom with Lan Cai, quickly locking it from the inside.
Lifting his hand, Lan Shili angrily pounded on the sickroom door, the "bang bang bang" sound incessant.

"Annoying!" Li Xiaoyao was very impatient; if it weren’t for Lan Cai’s sake, he wouldn’t care whether this old man lived or died.
Who would have thought, trying to kindly save this old man, yet the people outside were so ungrateful.
With a wave of his hand, Li Xiaoyao used Spiritual Power to completely seal the doors and windows; even if someone were to smash them with a hammer at this time, they would not be able to break through.
Seeing that the door wouldn’t budge no matter how much he kicked, Lan Shili turned his head and shouted, "Call the police, call them immediately!"
At this moment, someone said, "If only Lan Badao were here, this youngster would have been beaten down by now."
Indeed, Lan Badao was one of the military district’s top soldiers, having once achieved first place in single-combat within the military district.
If he were here, he would never allow Li Xiaoyao to be so presumptuous.
Outside the sickroom, the people of the Lan Family were in turmoil, calling the police and summoning help.
Inside the sickroom, Lan Cai watched the emaciated and nearly lifeless Lan Shili, tears streaming down her face.
"Grandfather." Lan Cai clenched her grandfather’s hand tightly. The dry palm, with prominent veins, made her think he was already dead if not for the faint warmth she could still feel.
Li Xiaoyao patted her shoulder and said, "It’s okay, in a moment your grandfather will be jumping around."
"Pfft!" The phrase "jumping around" made Lan Cai burst into laughter. She wiped away her tears and said, "Xiaoyao, you must cure my grandfather’s illness."
Li Xiaoyao walked over, sat beside the bed, and said, "The old master has sepsis. Unless the blood in his body is completely replaced, there’s no cure. But this little illness is nothing to me. Sit aside for now; I will treat the old master."
Hearing Li Xiaoyao’s confident words, Lan Cai’s confidence also surged, and she nodded, getting up and walking to the side.
Outside, the members of the Lan Family were still pounding on the doors and windows. The hospital security had already been alerted, and the guards stood outside the door, initially trying to unlock it with keys, then resorted to using clubs to smash it.
But no matter how they struggled, they could not open it; the doors and windows seemed as hard as steel.
"Bastard!" Lan Shili punched the glass hard.
"Lan Cai is really out of line, colluding with outsiders to harm the old master!" Lan Qiniang, the third son, also said angrily.
At that moment, Xu Wan slowly said, "I told you, girls are outgoing. Lan Cai is a white-eyed wolf. I saw this when she went to Ling City."
Lan Hetu also said, "I have no idea what kind of spell that kid has cast on Lan Cai."
"Shut up, all of you!" Lan Shili was already upset enough inside, and hearing them making these cold comments only added to his anger.
In the hospital room, Li Xiaoyao was using his Spiritual Power to expel the pathogens from Lan Shanwen’s body.
The Li Xiaoyao now was incomparable to his former self; he had almost passed out from exhaustion after treating Cheng Dongliang back in the day. Yet now, saving a person for him was as simple as flipping over his hand.
With the nurturing of Spiritual Power, a rosy hue spread across Lan Shanwen’s wrinkled and aged face, and his breathing gradually became calm.
Li Xiaoyao reached out and removed the oxygen mask from his face, allowing him to breathe freely.
Outside the hospital room, Lan Tian saw this scene and was instantly so shocked that he screamed, "That bastard took off Grandpa’s oxygen mask! He’s trying to murder Grandpa!"
"What!" Lan Shili and Lan Qiniang immediately ran to the window and indeed saw that scene.
"Li Xiaoyao!" Lan Shili shouted word by word, his eyes red with anger, the old man inside was his father.
And now, he was watching a bastard attempting to murder his own father right before his eyes. The rage in his heart had already reached its peak.
"I’m definitely going to kill you, no matter who you are, I will kill you!" Lan Shili gnashed his teeth, almost crushing them.
"I’m calling Brother Badao!"
Lan Shili turned his head and commanded, "Don’t call! If they can find the Spiritual Medicine, the old master might still have a chance to live."
Li Xiaoyao couldn’t hear the noise outside, and even if he had, he wouldn’t have cared.
The oxygen mask was filled with pure oxygen, and right after the old master had just begun to recover, breathing pure oxygen was not good for him.
With the warmth of Li Xiaoyao’s Spiritual Power, the old master’s bodily functions were swiftly recovering at a vibrant pace.
The eyelashes fluttered, and the old master slowly opened his eyes to see a handsome young man.
"Doctor, how long have I been unconscious?" the old master spoke with a surprisingly strong voice, startling even himself.
He knew his own condition all too well; he was tormented by his illness on a daily basis, suffering beyond words. But now, he didn’t feel any pain at all, on the contrary, his body felt incredibly light as if the illness had left him completely.
"Don’t talk." Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly, increasing the speed at which he fed Spiritual Power through his palm resting on the old man’s wrist.
The old master was startled, then immediately smiled in understanding.
He didn’t mind Li Xiaoyao’s manner; he resolved to properly thank him for bringing him back from the brink of death.
"Grandpa!" Lan Cai, who was nearby, saw her grandpa awaken, cried out excitedly. She wanted to rush over, but seeing that Li Xiaoyao hadn’t finished the treatment, she had to suppress her excitement.
After more than half an hour, Li Xiaoyao finally finished the treatment, and said to Lan Cai, "It’s done, your grandpa’s illness is cured. With more activity after being discharged, living another twenty or thirty years shouldn’t be an issue."
"What!" The old master turned his head in shock and looked at Li Xiaoyao.
Who exactly was this young man?
