Please, Let Me Be Your 21st Book

Under the moonlight, he stumbled upon the village bully’s dirty secret and was chased to a cliff. One misstep, and he plunged into the abyss below.

No one knew that an ancient medical inheritance, dormant for three thousand years, lay at the bottom of the cliff. During the Spring and Autumn period, the Medicine Elder sealed a soul jade with his life’s cultivation, waiting for someone pure of heart to find it. His blood fell, the seal opened, and the Nine Needles of Taisu, the Green Satchel Classic, and the Taisu Art all poured into his mind.

The Medicine Elder left him one condition: treat a thousand of the poorest and most desperate patients. If he failed, the heart-devouring Gu would consume his meridians and kill him.

Xiao Chen, twenty-one, was a wild boy from Qingfengling Village, raised on meals provided by the villagers. He climbed back up from the rocky riverbank. The three fractures in his spine had healed, a vortex of energy had formed in his dantian, and a warm power that could bring the dead back to life flowed at his fingertips.

He had no idea what awaited him when he returned to the village, but he knew one thing: from this day on, he would no longer be the orphan everyone could bully.

And so begins a legend of defying fate through the art of healing.
