"Still, I think what he said makes sense. After all, the Nine Needles of Tianxing were lost long ago. Although the legends speak of all sorts of miraculous wonders, no one has actually seen them. Until this elderly gentleman is completely cured, we can't say for certain that Chen Feiyu has won."
Everyone thought this sounded reasonable and turned to look at Xu Qingshan.
Xu Qingshan glared at Li Mingyu, a flash of displeasure crossing his face. Yet, since this was his first time witnessing the Nine Needles of Tianxing, he realized upon reflection that he truly had acted rashly. He stroked his white beard, gave a dry cough, and said to Chen Feiyu, "Mr. Chen, rumor has it that the Nine Needles of Tianxing are infinitely profound and cure ailments instantly. Although I concede defeat, this elder brother of mine has not yet fully recovered. I'm afraid not everyone here is entirely convinced."
