Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1441 1436: Sudden Poisoning

However, to say Su Chen is highly skilled in healing and saving lives is quite surprising.But the facts are plain to see. The hospital wouldn't joke about its reputation, and since Su Chen has been invited by the hospital administration to serve as honorary dean, it shows that he must have genuine expertise.

Su Chen was unaware that his previous glorious achievements were being recounted like a boast by a doctor at Jiangdu Private Hospital, pouring out like a cascade of beans to the He family mother and daughter.

The He family mother and daughter became more and more astonished as they listened, not expecting Su Chen to have such a side to him.

Meanwhile, Su Chen himself was getting a headache from being pestered by Chu Man.

"Can you sit down and be quiet for a moment?" Su Chen said, somewhat impatiently.

"How can I be quiet? What exactly is wrong with him? Have you found out the reason yet?" Chu Man's temper was starting to show.

"I have found the cause." Su Chen replied calmly.

"What cause? Can it be treated?" Chu Man's anxiety was evident.

"Poisoning."

"Poisoning? How is that possible?!" Chu Man found it unbelievable. In the intensive care unit, under such strict monitoring, how could he have been poisoned?

"Nothing is impossible, and I can responsibly tell you, he was poisoned within twenty minutes after I left from here." Su Chen said, looking at the old man on the hospital bed, whose face was ashen and who was on the brink of death.

"Within twenty minutes after you left here? You save him first, I'll handle everything else!" Chu Man said through gritted teeth.

This old man was too important for Jiangdu Private Hospital and her personally. If he died at Jiangdu Private Hospital, it would spell disaster for the entire institution!

"Mm, you go out first and turn off the monitoring in the intensive care unit." Su Chen said.

"Alright!" Chu Man did not hesitate, knowing that only Su Chen could save the old man now!

After Chu Man exited the ward, Su Chen closed the door to the intensive care unit.

The old man's poisoning was severe, and given his already frail body, his life was hanging by a thread, with any carelessness potentially leading to his death.

That's why Chu Man urgently brought in Su Chen, not daring to treat the old man by conventional means.

Chu Man herself had considerable medical skills, but the acute condition happening to the old man was beyond her ability to treat.

Su Chen examined the old man's eyelids and then injected a wisp of barely visible inner strength into his body before using his finger as a knife to cut his own wrist, letting his blood drip into the old man's mouth.

Although it was only a few drops, the old man who ingested Su Chen's blood showed visible improvement.

The ashen hue on his face began to fade gradually, and the faint deathly aura dissipated once Su Chen's blood entered his mouth.

Yet it was not over, as the old man's main ailment was in his brain.

Su Chen, although not an outstanding neurosurgeon, arguably knew more about the human body's structure than an old traditional Chinese physician with decades of experience in medicine.

Because he had dissected countless corpses after dispatching them with his own hands.

Even his own body had undergone so many traumas that he had an intimate understanding of every inch of his own muscles and skin tissues.

This was why he possessed such formidable combat instincts; he was too familiar with his own body.

After waiting for a few minutes, when the old man's heartbeat returned to normal and the toxins in his body were assimilated and consumed by Su Chen's blood, the old man's condition had returned to its pre-poisoned state.

To pull an already frail old man back from the brink of the abyss of death, even for Su Chen, was no easy feat.

He had warned Chu Man beforehand; he could indeed save the old man, but he could not guarantee how long the old man would survive.

But one thing was certain: if Su Chen did not intervene, the old man would not survive another month.

...

Performing 'surgery' on someone's brain wasn't Su Chen's first experience, yet he still felt quite tense.

The human brain is the most critical part of the human body.

Even Su Chen wasn't sure if his head were smashed, whether it would still recover to its original state.

His body could now almost be called an undying body.

From the most severe incident before, his body was nearly shattered by two-thirds, with half his torso missing below the chest.

Yet he had survived, regrown the severed limbs, and left no sequelae.

But what if next time it wasn't his body that got shattered, but his head?

Su Chen didn't know the answer, nor did he dare to try because what if he really died?

Rich inner strength was gradually injected by Su Chen into the old man's body. Meanwhile, he picked up the silver needles prepared earlier by Chu Man.

Su Chen couldn't help but feel satisfied when picking up the silver needles; Chu Man was thoughtful—this set of silver needles was definitely not ordinary merchandise and seemed to have some years of history. The person who crafted them probably wasn't an unknown figure.

But at this moment, Su Chen didn't have the time to dwell on these things.

With deep and serious eyes, he looked at the old man lying on the hospital bed and slowly began acupuncture...

As four hours elapsed in a flash.

Since Su Chen entered the intensive care unit, its doors had been tightly closed.

After Chu Man turned off the monitoring systems in the ward, she hadn't left. Instead, she anxiously waited outside the ward for the result.

But the four hours of waiting had pushed her to the brink of collapse.

"Director Chu, he has arrived." A middle-aged man in a white coat walked briskly towards Chu Man.

This person was the head of a department and held the title of medical professor, one of Chu Man's few staunch supporters among Jiangdu Private Hospital's senior management.

The reason was clear to many—although Chu Man was nearly thirty, she was still single.

And this department head, the medical professor, although already forty-two, was likewise single.

However, the background of Chu Man's single status was different; she had never been married, while the department head had been divorced twice.

"He's here? Have him wait outside for a while." Chu Man said without a second thought.

"Director Chu, I'm afraid we can't stop him; he's already on his way upstairs." The department head replied with a bitter expression.

After all, that person's status is not something trivial—Jiangdu's newly appointed second-in-command. If he truly wanted to force his way in, who would dare to stop him?

Chu Man, already feeling anxious and irritable, was even more troubled with the impending visit of Lv Zheng.

"You stand guard here for me. Unless I say otherwise, you don't let anyone into this ward, understand?"

"Huh?"

"I said, no one is allowed in this ward, even if Jiangdu's top leader comes personally, you must stop them for me!" After giving such a domineering command, Chu Man headed toward the staircase in her high heels…
