The Modern Immortal

Departure

Old Jin nodded gladly and Daemon proceeded to crouch down and remove the needles.

As compared to inserting the needles, removing them would be a lot easier, but the sequence was still important.

Depending on what illness it was, the sequence of removing the needles mattered a lot. It definitely could not be randomly removed by anyone.

That would spell disaster.

Daemon concentrated slightly and quickly removed all nine gold needles at lightning speed.

"Elder, I've got the Gu Insect in your body under control, you can be completely assured that it wouldn't harm you in the next two months."

"Two months later, I'll help you force the Gu Insect out of your body, completely solving your illness."

When Daemon treated a patient, he either would go all the way or not treat the patient at all. Giving up halfway was not his style.

Therefore, he said it even before Old Jin and his granddaughter had the chance to ask.

It was a good move that impressed both Old Jin and Jin Ning'er, making them nod in agreement.

Daemon was confident that he would reach the peak of his Body tempering in two months and the spiritual energy within his body would be 200 times more than the amount he had right now. He would also have full control of the spiritual energy within his body and would be able to manipulate it manually, thus, forcing the Gu Insect out of Old Jin's body would be a piece of cake.

Old Jin got up and moved about before slapping his forehead as if he suddenly remembered something. He asked, " Mister Daemon, you must have school today right it's 4 am right now so why not just rest here and you can leave after that for school?"

Daemon look at and said,"No, there is no need for that and I have to do something before school so it would good if I leave right now".

Old Jin waved to his granddaughter and said, "Quit standing around, Little Ning. Go pack up Daemon's things quickly and head out with him and tell Conner to prepare the car."

He pointed at the jade box which held the gold needles and the rosewood casing as he uttered those words.

Daemon was in a daze. He looked at the nine gold needles that were resting on his palms and said, "Old Jin, since I'm already taking both the gold and silver needles, I really shouldn't take the jade box and the wooden casing…"

He could tell that the two items that were used to store the gold needles were extremely valuable.

Old Jin was very impressed with Daemon's performance. He slowly shook his head and replied, "Daemon, these gold needles have been kept in the jade box and wooden casing for several decades, what's the point of separating them? Besides, I've already gifted you the gold needles, what's the point of keeping these boxes with me?"

Since Old Man Xue was so generous, Daemon was not left with much to say. Ultimately, he did not have the habit of rejecting people when they insisted on gifting treasures to him.

Jin Ning'er also did not have much to say. Her hands moved deftly as she placed the jade box in the rosewood casing before asking Daemon, "Do you want to place the needles in?"

Daemon figured that it would be inconvenient for him to carry the gold needles in his pocket, thus, he nodded and walked towards her.

Once they finished packing, Old Jin nodded and told his granddaughter, "Little Ning, since Daemon isn't going to shower, take him to eat something, because of all the previous events I could even take proper care of my guest ."

Jin Ning'er happily said, " Don't worry grandpa, we will grab something to eat while on our way to the dormitories".

After that they left in the car with Conner, on there way to the dormitories they stop to eat and after the drive of twenty minutes they arrived at the school dormitories.

As Daemon get out of the car, Jin Ning'er lean on to the window and said, " Thank you for everything to did for my family Daemon, I really appreciate that and if you need any help don't hesitate, OK".

Daemon smiled and said," Ok, Jin Ning'er, if I need any help I will definitely ask you".

"What Jin Ning'er, call me Ning'er ok, after all we are friends right. Ok let's meet at school, you take care of yourself and get some sleep, bye". 

Daemon smiled and said," right, bye".

The dormitories was quite a bit distance away from the main road, as he was walking towards the dormitories, his phone start vibrating. When he checked he saw a message from bank it shows the his account.

Account Number: xxx xxxx xx54

Balance: 20,010,564 $

He was surprised by the amount, as he was busy thinking where this come from another message came.

Message.

[Daemon, you must have got the message from bank right. You don't need to surprise by the amount it's actually your payment, the needles was for show so little Ning don't question me after. I got a call form cheng, he said most of the domestic assets of Feng Family are under control but 30%  assets are overseas, so to get everything under control and all the paperwork to be done, it will take at least a month. So I just wanted to inform you and please if there is anything I can do for you please don't hesitate to ask, after all you are my saviour.

Jin Dong].

Afet reading the message he moved the dormitories and sneak his way inside it. He reached his room and rested for a while.
