Chapter 68: 068 Sister Lan’s Treasure Chest is the Ancestor [2 updates]
Thud—
Su Xueqing’s hand trembled, and the pen she was holding in her right hand dropped to the ground.
The person at the desk behind her picked it up for her and poked her back, “Xueqing, you really didn’t sleep well last night, did you? You can’t even hold your pen steadily. We need to sleep at such a young age!”
However, Su Xueqing had no reaction at all; her gaze was fixed dead on the few sheets of paper Ye Wanlan had given her, her fingers trembling violently.
She had grown up in the Su Family and had been required to learn various needling techniques from an early age to carry on the Taiyi Medical Skills.
She also had heard countless elders sigh around her, “It’s a pity that out of the ten parts of the Taiyi Divine Needle, the latter seven parts are all lost. If these seven parts could reappear in the world, our Taiyi Palace would surely be restored to its former glory.”
In that battle years ago, ninety percent of the Taiyi Medical Practitioners died, and the Palace Master of Taiyi Palace, Shui Yunqing, even lost his life on the way to rescue the Commander of the Divine Strategy Army.
What’s circulating widely in the market today is only the first part of the Taiyi Divine Needle, which can treat only a very limited number of diseases—nothing more than common chronic deficiency-cold conditions or symptoms like wind-cold damp arthralgia, paralysis, and weakness.
This simplest needle technique, Su Xueqing also knew how to perform.
The second and third parts were kept by the Su Family and not passed on.
Even the descendants of the Su Family had to go through layers of tests before they could learn these two parts.
Because if one tried to bite off more than they could chew to learn the later two parts without sufficient strength, they would end up deviating from the correct path and fail completely.
In the selection of core disciples, the Su Family was very cautious.
If it hadn’t been for that incident, she might have already begun to learn the second part of the Taiyi Divine Needle, but after being driven out of the Su Family and coming to Jiangcheng, she had not been able to come into contact with it.
Yet now, the second part of the Taiyi Divine Needle was right in her hands.
Su Xueqing held her breath, fearing that once she breathed out, she would blow away the words on the paper.
As a practitioner of Chinese medicine, she could clearly distinguish whether the images and sentences on the paper were real or fake.
This was the real Taiyi Divine Needle!
It was the Su Family’s non-transmitted secret technique that even she had never seen before!
“Xueqing? Su Xueqing!” The person behind her desk kept poking her annoyingly, “Where’s your pen? Do you still want it? What are you thinking about that’s got you so engrossed?”
Su Xueqing suddenly came back to her senses and quickly placed the papers back into her book.
She turned around, expressionless, “I was thinking that I might not be able to sleep for several days.”
“What?!” The person behind her was shocked, “How can you not sleep at your age? I fall asleep within three seconds the moment my head hits the pillow!”
Su Xueqing took back her pen, and it took her more than a dozen breaths before she could somewhat calm her pounding heart.
This is the Taiyi Divine Needle!
How could she possibly sleep?
“Ah Lan, how… how on earth… where did you find this?” Su Xueqing asked Ye Wanlan in a low voice.
Ye Wanlan’s smile was faint, “How it came doesn’t matter. What’s important is that it’s useful to you, isn’t it?”
“Yes…” Su Xueqing was taken aback, “Not just useful to me? If you were to sell it on the Global Net, it could fetch a suite in the Global Center and permanent resident status!”
Why would she give something so precious to her?
While Su Xueqing was extremely desirous of it, she was also clear-headed and handed the papers back, “Ah Lan, I can’t take this. The Curative Herb is not precious to me, but your return gift is too much.”
“Alright, calm and composed,” Ye Wanlan commended, “Whether the gift is too large depends on whether it can bring out its greatest power. Objects are inanimate, people are not, and you are just the person who can use it.”
“But I…”
“Take it, keep it safe.”
Ye Wanlan was insistent, putting the second part of the Taiyi Divine Needle into Su Xueqing’s backpack.
Su Xueqing’s hands trembled again, and she blinked, trying hard to push back her tears, but she couldn’t help choking up, “Nobody believes in me, but you have so much faith in me…”
Even her parents didn’t believe her, and she had been kicked out by the family she had lived with for over a decade.
“Xueqing.” Ye Wanlan suddenly called her name, “Don’t tell a third person about this, no one at all.”
“I understand.” Su Xueqing’s expression was very serious, “Such items can easily lead to fatal disasters.”
Wealth seizing by murder was not unusual, whether it was three hundred years ago or now.
Ten years ago, a young and exceptionally talented medical practitioner from the Su Family died in a plane crash on their way to the Starman Federal Empire.
Even though the Su Family was clear that it was a plot, there was no proof.
Su Xueqing rubbed her eyes and reached out to her friend in Yunjing again.
[Su Xueqing]: What about the Curative Herb? Can I see it this afternoon?
[Drug Peddler]: My goodness, my lady, I just transplanted the Curative Herb from the vegetable garden this morning, I still need to pack it, and then have someone deliver it, tomorrow at the earliest.
[Su Xueqing]: Make it faster, otherwise, when I return, I’ll burn down your vegetable garden.
[Drug Peddler]: ???
[Drug Peddler]: You’re too much, you can pluck the Curative Herb as you please, but you can’t mess with my carefully cultivated cabbage! But you’ve resolved your issues and are coming back, right? But the Su Family…
[Su Xueqing]: It has nothing to do with the Su Family, I’ll be just me from now on, and I’ll always be a good doctor.
Taiyi Medical Practitioners bring back the dead and vie with heaven itself!
As a member of the Taiyi Medical Practitioners, on the path of struggle against fate, she wouldn’t admit defeat.

The noon sun was splendid, clouds drifted with the wind, transforming into layers of mountains and vast oceans.
“Hey, Grandma, did you take your medicine on time today?” Ye Wanlan, while basking in the sun leaning on the railing, checked in with Lin Weilan, “I’ll continue to come see you tonight. I’ve arranged with Uncle to stay at the old house for the next few days.”
“Good, good!” Lin Weilan was delighted, “I’ve been looking forward to you staying longer at the old house. Stay as long as you like, nobody dares to gossip.”
“Grandma, you just rest well and stop worrying about the Curative Herb,” Ye Wanlan said.
“Grandma will listen to you.”
After the call ended, Lin Weilan, feeling exhausted, pressed her temples: “What about those few Curative Herbs we were paying attention to last time?”
“Madam, we had already made contact with the seller, but at the last minute, they all backed out,” Steward Lin was also anxious, “All external channels for the Curative Herb have been blocked. I’m afraid only the Su Family…”
Lin Weilan’s gaze was heavy, but she said nothing.
The purpose of the other party was, indeed, to force her back to the Yunjing Lin Family.
The person behind this incident must also be inextricably linked with certain members of the Yunjing Lin Family!
They think such measures can make her seek help from the main family?
Steward Lin had followed Lin Weilan from Yunjing to Jiangcheng, and he too had an understanding of the situation in Yunjing: “However, besides the Su Family, there is still one person…”
“I know who you’re referring to, but he’s even less likely,” Lin Weilan sighed, “The Su Family sometimes goes to him for herbs, and they’ve been driven out with scolding several times. It’s difficult.”
Steward Lin was at a loss for words.
This person indeed had a strange temperament, valuing cabbages and mushrooms more than medicinal materials.
“I know Ah Lan doesn’t want me to worry, but she’s still young and has only just returned to school not long ago. How could I possibly let her handle this?” Lin Weilan murmured, “But she’s suffered for so long, if I can’t even provide her with decent material conditions, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to Jiayan.”
Steward Lin sighed again.
To this day, it’s still unknown whether Lin Jiayan is alive or dead. If he’s alive, that’s good, but if…
Lin Weilan waved her hand, “You may leave. I’ll think of other ways,”
“Madam, please take good care of your health,” Steward Lin said with deep concern as he left the study.
Seeing him come out, Lin Qingwen quickly stepped forward.
“Mom, I…”
Lin Weilan exclaimed coldly, “Get out!”
Lin Qingwen startled so much that he didn’t dare express a third word and scrambled away.
At that moment, he saw a Lin Weilan completely opposite to the one he usually knew.
Not frail and weak but ruthless and chilling!
When Lin Qingwen returned to the third-floor bedroom, he patted his chest: “I have never seen Mom look so terrifying. I really don’t know what she did to be expelled from the main family.”
Madam Lin didn’t speak. She was preparing a backup plan.
If the Curative Herb did not appear in seven days, the Lin Family was doomed!

In the afternoon, at Jiangcheng No.7 Middle School, Senior 2, Class 2.
“What?!” The study committee member raised her voice, “The fourth spot for the summer camp went to Class 1’s Ye Wanlan? They are a History class!”
“Exactly, they don’t even study Physics. How can they participate in the Physics competition? What are they trying to do?”
“Don’t cry, Junning; that spot should have been yours. We’ll go to Class 1 and demand justice for you.”
A dozen or so students fumed as they blocked the entrance to Class 1.
“Ye Wanlan, we need to talk to you. Please, come out,” they called.
Ye Wanlan looked up.
It was several students from Senior 2, Class 2, with Su Xubai and Xue Yiwei noticeably among them.
Su Xueqing frowned and held onto Ye Wanlan’s arm, “Ah Lan, I’ll go with you to see what new tricks they’re up to.”
The other students from the class gathered around upon seeing this scene.
Classes 1 and 2 have always been at odds.
That’s because class 2 had science students like Xue Yiwei who looked down on them for studying History, and there were also troublemakers like Sheng Song who took pleasure in bullying the regular students.
Ye Wanlan’s expression was unchanged: “What is it?”
“We can’t influence Teacher Ren’s decision, but you should know that the summer camp spot shouldn’t be yours,” Xue Yiwei said flatly, “You only transferred here in June, and you study history. Don’t you think it’s unfair for you to take up that spot?”
All the students from Class 2 thought so, but none were bold enough to say it outright.
After Xue Yiwei put it bluntly, their gazes towards Ye Wanlan shifted subtly.
They normally didn’t care about backdoor deals, but when it came to their own resources being taken, none would agree.

Ye Wanlan’s gaze remained steady: “So?”
“So, go tell Teacher Ren that you’ve decided to withdraw from this summer camp,” Xue Yiwei said, getting impatient, “Give the spot to Junning. It was hers to begin with, and it’s unreasonable for you to keep it, both morally and logically. I’ve made myself clear, understand? If you do, let’s go to the physics coordinator’s office now.”
