Qin Xuan pricked seven silver needles into Wang Yuyan's legs, arms, the center of her forehead, her heart, and her abdomen.
Louis, watching from the side, said with unconcealed anger,
"Nonsense! This is utter nonsense! You'll kill her!"
Inside the room, no one paid her any mind.
Tantai Yue and Qin Lin were family.
Although Guan Rou hadn't interacted much with Qin Xuan, she had often heard Wang Yuyan speak of him as a formidable and mysterious man, so she naturally chose to trust him.
After inserting the silver needles, Qin Xuan gently placed his palm on Wang Yuyan's lower abdomen, a trace of Dragon Power seeping in.
The condition of Wang Yuyan's internal body immediately appeared in Qin Xuan's mind.
At her chest, there was a tiny, strangely shaped insect, strikingly similar to the one inside Qin Lin. It was indeed a Gu worm.
Based on Wang Yuyan's comatose state, Qin Xuan guessed it was likely a comatose Gu.
Although not a particularly fatal type of Gu, the afflicted person would remain in a coma, akin to a vegetative state.
Qin Xuan activated his Dragon Power, slowly guiding it towards the Gu worm.
This comatose Gu was not life-threatening, so Qin Xuan could forcibly expel it with his Dragon Power.
The seven silver needles sealed seven major bloodlines in Wang Yuyan's body, preventing the Gu worm from moving freely.
As expected, sensing danger, the Gu worm attempted to move towards Wang Yuyan's heart.
However, its path was blocked by the silver needle sealing the heart's bloodline. The Gu worm's escape route was cut off.
Qin Xuan quickly tapped the area below Wang Yuyan's heart with the index finger of his other hand. A suction force directly drew the Gu worm out of Wang Yuyan's flesh.
A worm so small it was barely visible to the naked eye wriggled on Qin Xuan's finger.
Upon seeing the worm, the faces of the women present instantly changed.
Qin Lin, in particular, turned pale with fear.
If she knew there was one inside her, who knew how she would react.
"What... what is that?" Guan Rou asked, swallowing hard.
Qin Xuan replied,
"A Gu worm."
"Gu worm?" the women all expressed their confusion.
Qin Xuan had no choice but to explain,
"This is a rather ancient evil art. Despite its small size, those who raise these Gu worms can even use them to control people's minds to achieve their own objectives."
The eyes of the three women widened with disbelief.
To them, who lived in an era of atheism and modern thought, such things belonged only in movies and novels. They never imagined they were real!
Qin Xuan extended his finger, walked in front of Louis, and dangled the Gu worm before him, terrifying Louis to his wits' end.
"Dr. Louis, you don't have this sort of thing in the West, do you? Western medicine has never seen this, right?" Qin Xuan chuckled.
Louis recoiled, stammering in terror,
"You... you take it away! Take it away!"
Qin Xuan merely let out a soft laugh.
Western medicine had only a few centuries of history, while the grand tradition of Chinese medicine spanned millennia. The knowledge contained within it was far beyond the scope of Western medicine.
Chinese medicine did have records of dispelling Gu, typically through slow consumption of medicinal herbs to dissolve the Gu worm within the body. However, this was only effective against less potent Gu.
The type of Gu inside Qin Lin was not something that could be simply dissolved by medicinal herbs.
Qin Xuan snapped his fingers. Dragon Power surged from his fingertip, and the Gu worm instantly dissolved into mere dust in the air.
"Cough... cough..." Suddenly, Wang Yuyan, who had been in a deep sleep, coughed a few times. Then, she slowly opened her eyes. She glanced at the people around her with confusion and asked,
"What happened to me? You..."
Seeing Wang Yuyan awaken, the women all breathed a long sigh of relief.
Wang Yuyan rubbed her aching head and sat up.
She only remembered that as she was going to throw away flowers, she suddenly felt dizzy and then lost consciousness.
