Chen Yuan frowned and whispered to Zhuang Qian, "Ah Qian, why did you invite this guy over?"

Zhuang Hao's eyes sparkled brightly as he said, "The Ghost Doctor's reputation is renowned, maybe he will have a solution."

Chen Yuan, "……" The Ghost Doctor's reputation is indeed renowned, but…

"However, he is a cosmetic surgeon, best at liposuction and removing excess skin, he doesn't specialize in treating the ill," Chen Yuan urged on.

Zhuang Qian nodded before countering, "But all those doctors couldn't find the problem! Maybe the Ghost Doctor will know!"

Qi Shaorong crossed his arms as he observed these people then said, "Gentlemen, have you finished discussing? If you need me to treat the illness, then take me to see the patient. If you do not need me, may I leave already? You have to know, ever since I came to the Imperial Capital, there've been so many people looking for me that they can form a line all the way to the gate. I am very busy person."

Zhuang Qian hurriedly pulled on Qi Shaorong's sleeves, "Need, definitely need."

Zhuang Qian anxiously looked at Zhuang Hao. Zhuang Hao casted a scrutinizing glance towards Qi Shaorong but in the end said, "Since it's like this, we will have to inconvenience you, Ghost Doctor."

Qi Shaorong smiled, "No need to mention it."

Qi Shaorong followed Zhuang Hao who brought him to another courtyard that was completely tidied and clean. Zhuang Renquan has been ill for a long time now, always quietly recuperating, so this courtyard had a bit less people here.

"Third Uncle," Zhuang Hao softly cried.

Zhuang Renquan turned his head over to look at the people standing near the door, and managed a strained smile.

Qi Shaorong looked Zhuang Renquan and couldn't help letting out a whistle, "Third Master Zhuang, you look quite handsome! I will be giving someone plastic surgery later, now I'll have one more reference to use."

Once Qi Shaorong's words came out, Chen Yuan couldn't resist covering up his face.

"Young Master Chen, even if you aren't as handsome as Third Master, there's no need to cover your face. Otherwise, people will think you are ashamed to meet them."

Chen Yuan："…"

Zhuang Renquan managed a weak smile. Probably because of being ill for so long, Zhuang Renquan's face was sickly pale like snow. His body was also severely emaciated, but he was very handsome. Even when ill, it was difficult to hide his stunning looks. Qi Shaorong couldn't help but sighed, Zhuang family's genes were too good.

"Ghost Doctor?" Zhuang Renquan asked as he looked at Qi Shaorong.

"Third Master has heard of me?" Qi Shaorong inquired.

"Ghost Doctor's name is famous all over, I naturally would have heard of you." Zhuang Renquan responded.

"I'm honored!" Qi Shaorong replied.

Qi Shaorong went up to take Zhuang Renquan's pulse. Zhuang Qian moved up next to Qi Shaorong and asked, "Ghost Doctor qianbei, can you tell what is wrong?"

Qi Shaorong shot Zhuang Qian a look. Zhuang Renquan frowned, he opened his mouth and said, "Qian'er, don't be so impudent. "

Being reproached like this by Zhuang Renquan, Zhuang Qian immediately shrunk back his neck.

Qi Shaorong looked over at Qi Heng. Qi Heng knowingly took out an apparatus and handed it over to Qi Shaorong.

Facing Zhuang Renquan, Qi Shaorong scanned his head for a moment.

Zhuang Qian watched Qi Shaorong and asked, "Distinguished Ghost Doctor, what did you find out?"

Qi Shaorong saw the anxious look in Zhuang Qian's eyes and said, "Let's talk outside."

Zhuang Hao who was waiting, followed Qi Shaorong to go out.

"Is Third Uncle's situation very grave? " Zhuang Hao questioned.

Qi Shaorong nodded and answered, "It's quite serious. After my examination, your Third Uncle's brain seems to have grown a tumor."

"You probably don't understand what a kind of thing a tumor is. In simpler terms, it's a type of virulent substance that can spread. According to my understanding, you've invited many Light System Mages before to cast light healing. A Light System Magus' light healing may be able to treat many devastating injuries, but it is not omnipotent."

"Light healing can stimulate the growth of the tumor. If I'm not wrong, when you invited the Light System Magi, the stronger they were, the more your Third uncle's condition worsen after the treatment."

Zhuang Qian abruptly straightened his body and exclaimed, "Yes! It was exactly like that!"

Zhuang Hao looked at Qi Shaorong and asked, "Do you have a method to cure Third Uncle, Ghost Doctor?"

Qi Shaorong studied Zhuang Hao and said, "I have a means, but you may not be able to accept it."

"May I ask for further details?"

Qi Shaorong shrugged and replied, "I only have one solution, pry open your Third Uncle's skull then remove the tumor."

Zhuang Qian suddenly widened his eyes, and somewhat anxiously said, "Open the skull? This should be really risky, right?"

Qi Shaorong nodded, "Not just risky, it's extremely dangerous. You should know that all operations are risky. There is a huge possibility your Third Uncle will die in the middle of the surgery."

Zhuang Hao stared at Qi Shaorong and asked, "What is your chance of success?"

"Thirty percent," Qi Shaorong replied.

"Only thirty percent?" Zhuang Hao inquired.

Qi Shaorong nodded, "Yes."

In his old world, Zhuang Hao's situation would already be considered as terminal with no chance of being saved. However, the people in this world are much more resilient than those of the previous world. That was the only reason why Qi Shaorong was inclined to suggest this method.

Qi Shaorong looked at these few people and added, "Since you can't decide immediately, I think you all should discuss it for a while first. I'll wait till you discussed it thoroughly to decide whether or not you want my help."

"Ah Heng." Qi Heng quickly handed over several agreements.

"If you all have decided, I'll have to bother you to sign this agreement form," Qi Heng stated.

Chen Yuan accepted the agreement and took a look. His forehead couldn't help but scrunched up. "It says that if we are to ask for your aid, the Zhuang family cannot go find any trouble with you in case of failure. Regardless of failure or not, there will be a payment of ten thousand gold coins. If successful, there will be an additional fee of three thousand gold coins."

Qi Shaorong nodded and said, "That's right. That would be the case."

Mage, Magus, Magi – I would be using these interchangeably.
