Hidden Master: starting by canceling ten marriage proposals

"As for you," Yin Tian said indifferently, "your body is generally alright, but you have a deficiency of yang energy within you. Yet, because you consume a large number of tonics every day, very few people can tell by looking at you."

He went straight to the heart of the matter, revealing what the other party strived to conceal, "However, you can't keep hiding this situation."

"If you continue to drag it out, I'm afraid you can forget about having children in this lifetime."

In an instant, everyone's gaze shifted back onto the young man.

"Yang deficiency? What's that? Do you know?"

Lin Yunzhi subconsciously turned his head to look at Xuanyuan Yuhao.

Xuanyuan Yuhao's face was swollen like a pig's head, but he still shook his head very seriously, "I don't know."

Naturally, Yin Tian heard their conversation and turned his head, smiling slyly, "It means kidney deficiency, also commonly known as the 'three-second man.'"

As soon as he spoke, Lin Yunzhi and Xuanyuan Yuhao's faces instantly stiffened.

The term 'three-second man' has always been used to insult men; they had never actually seen one in real life, but today, they did...

They wanted to laugh, but given that the young man belonged to the Qu Family, one of the Six Families of the Imperial City, they truly dared not mock him.

And the expression of that young man became extremely distorted.

He had not expected that the matter he had always kept concealed would be so openly divulged by Yin Tian!

"What's with that face? I kindly remind you, yet you look at me with resentment?"

Yin Tian asked with a light chuckle.

The young man took a deep breath but found himself unable to refute.

He was always aware of his own physical condition, but it was truly difficult to speak of such matters. He thought he could find a solution on his own, yet Yin Tian still managed to see through him.

Yin Tian shifted his gaze away from the young man to scan the other three.

As each of the three individuals met Yin Tian's gaze, their hearts skipped a beat, worried that he might detect some illness in them.

Luckily, after looking them over, Yin Tian shook his head, "Congratulations to the three of you, your bodies are quite good; there seems to be no illness."

Upon hearing Yin Tian's words, a look of relief appeared on the faces of Qu Shuli and the others.

Fortunately...

Yin Tian did not discern anything on them.

"What do these words of yours prove?"

Qu Shuli looked stern, staring intently at Yin Tian.

"It proves that the medical skills of your Qu Family are not as exquisite as one might think," Yin Tian said with a half-smile. "If you can't even diagnose the illness in your own family members, what right do you have to call yourselves the leaders of the Medical Family?"

At these words, the faces of the five young people from the Qu Family all changed.

Although Yin Tian's remarks made them very unhappy...

But...

They suddenly realized they had no way to refute what Yin Tian said!

"So, now, shouldn't you be returning my things to me?"

Yin Tian spoke unhurriedly.

At these words, Qu Shuli's expression grew even more unsightly.

If it were earlier, he could have quibbled with Yin Tian using the Qu Family's reputation as the foremost Medical Family.

But now, Yin Tian had clearly demonstrated that his medical expertise was not inferior to the Qu Family's!

Hence, the first things he said naturally fell apart on their own.

Qu Shuli took a deep breath, looked up at Yin Tian, his expression somewhat unpleasant, "My Qu Family is one of the Six Great Families of the Imperial City, and my grandfather is even one of the Six Kings of the Imperial City. You dare to snatch something my Qu Family has taken a liking to?"

"Heh..."

Yin Tian issued a light chuckle, "What? Are you at your wit's end? You think you can't suppress me with your medical prowess, so you want to use your status to oppress me now?"

Qu Shuli snorted coldly but said nothing, obviously admitting the truth of Yin Tian's words.

"Hmph!"

Yin Tian's expression turned cold in an instant, "Don't try to press me with that so-called untouchable status of yours. Others may fear your Qu Family, but I certainly do not."

"Otherwise, when you return to the Qu Family, why not ask your grandfather what happened this morning?"

Upon hearing Yin Tian's words, Qu Shuli was momentarily stunned.

His grandfather had already met with Yin Tian?

But why hadn't his grandfather mentioned it?

Yin Tian, however, was in no mood to waste more words with Qu Shuli.

He stepped forward and approached the girl holding the wooden box containing the Tendon-Strengthening Vine, reached out, and directly snatched the box away.

This Tendon-Strengthening Vine was of no use to him anymore.

But Chi Yuxian needed it.

Since Chi Yuxian needed it, why should he let the Qu Family take advantage of the Tendon-Strengthening Vine?

"You!"

Qu Shuli looked lividly at Yin Tian, and as he saw Yin Tian walking away with the wooden box, his fists clenched together, only to helplessly let go.

His Qu Family was a Medical Family.

Obviously, they had no way to deal with a tough character like Yin Tian.

He even feared that even if all five of them attacked together, they'd probably be no match for Yin Tian...
