Chapter 18

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Flipping through the History of Medicine, Li Yi discovered that in all of history, there were only a few rare records of insect monster pets.

One of these records states that, in order to break through the cocoon, a chrysalis needed to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If a few accessories containing spiritual energy were placed near the chrysalis, the cocoon breaking process could be accelerated.

Also recorded were a few unorthodox methods of breaking the cocoon.

Li Yi wanted to laugh when he saw this. It was clear that the bug only needed a warm and sunny environment to break through the cocoon, but no one noticed it.

As far as all these researchers were concerned, adult bug Beasts appeared out of thin air, and there was no such thing as breaking through the cocoon.

After reading the medical history, Li Yi had a feeling that these guys really did not know how the cocoon breaking process happened.

Even the top doctors here did not know about something that even elementary school students knew.

Now, Li Yi was sure that as long as he moved the Homesick Stone into a new environment, it would be able to break out of its cocoon and turn into a butterfly.

It just so happened that it was summer now. These were the perfect conditions for breaking out of the cocoon.

As Li Yi was reading the medical history, Bai Youyun was looking at him full of worry.

She clenched her fists tightly and looked at Li Yi nervously. “Isn’t this too difficult? Why don’t we stop? This is clearly making things too difficult for him!”

Lin Ya also spoke up for Li Yi. “This kind of test is very unfair. Forget about it. If none of you can do it, what right do you have to make Li Yi do it?”

Butler Liu also stood up and said, “Dr. Li, do you have any leads? If you don’t, then forget about it. Anyway, you already have the status of a VIP here. No doubt you will become a famous doctor in the future.”

Jiang Ying smiled disdainfully. “He probably just got lucky when he was treating that Fire Sparrow. He’s just a hooligan who doesn’t know much. He stays in that shabby hospital all day. What can he possibly achieve?”

She looked at Shangguan Yi and said, “Mr. Shangguan, I think we’d better revoke his VIP status. He doesn’t deserve to be here at all!”

Shangguan Yi thought for a moment and looked at Li Yi. “Dr. Li, how’s the situation here?”

Li Yi turned to look at him and said, “Mr. Shangguan, I’ve already thought of a treatment plan. It can be carried out tomorrow.”

Hearing this, everyone present was slightly shocked. They never expected that Li Yi would actually have a solution.

Jiang Ying expressed her disbelief. “That’s impossible. You’re bluffing. There’s no way you will be able to solve it tomorrow. You’re just stalling for time!”

Li Yi looked at Jiang Ying and asked, “And what if I can do it tomorrow?”

“If you can do it, then that would make you a better doctor than me. I’ll be willing to be your assistant. But if you fail, you’ll have to give up your VIP status and leave this place forever!”

With stakes like this, Jiang Ying actually had nothing to lose.

If Li Yi could cure the bug, then he would be worthy of being called a godlike doctor.

It would not be to her disadvantage to become the assistant of such a doctor.

But if he failed, Li Yi would never be able to enter the Shangguan family museum again.

No matter how she calculated it, she would benefit regardless.

Naturally, Li Yi did not want to spoil her. Why would he let her have all the good things?

“No need. If I can cure the bug, I only have one request, and that is for this bug to be mine!”

Li Yi’s words made Shangguan Yi fall into deep thought.

He had spent a lot of money to buy this bug.

But now that the bug had turned into stone, it was useless.

Without Li Yi’s treatment, the bug would remain as stone and would not be of much use to him.

After thinking it over for a moment, Shangguan Yi agreed to Li Yi’s request. “No problem. If you can wake it up, it will be yours.”

After getting Shangguan Yi’s promise, Li Yi smiled. If Garfield had its eyes on it, then it had to be pretty powerful!

Li Yi took out his phone and checked the weather for tomorrow.

Tomorrow would be a sunny day with a suitable temperature.

“Then let’s do it. The treatment will start tomorrow.”

Jiang Ying laughed coldly. “Hur Hur, don’t try to be so brave. Be careful not to embarrass yourself tomorrow.”

“You don’t have to worry about it. I’ll cure the bug tomorrow. Just wait and watch the show.”

Li Yi’s reply was just as cold.

Jiang Ying was very unhappy. At the same time, she began to fear that Li Yi might really be able to cure the bug.

In time, his abilities might come to vastly eclipse her own. In Shangguan Yi’s eyes, Li Yi’s abilities would be one notch above hers.

All she could do was to keep telling herself that Li Yi was bluffing. He was definitely bluffing!

“Then that’s it for today. I’m going home. See you all tomorrow.” Li Yi waved his hand at Shangguan Yi.

Shangguan Yi smiled and said, “Then go on home. I’ll wait for you tomorrow.”

After saying goodbye to Shangguan Yi, Li Yi and the others left the museum and went to the front door.

Bai Youyun looked at Li Yi worriedly and asked, “What are we going to do tomorrow? If you can’t cure it, then you won’t have the right to enter the museum again!”

To an ordinary doctor, entering the Shangguan museum was a highly sought-after privilege. Such a lucky doctor’s skill level would shoot up virtually overnight.

But if a doctor suddenly lost that right, he would probably die of regret!

Li Yi said disapprovingly, “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely cure that bug tomorrow.”

“Well, since you said so, I believe you can!”

Bai Youyun said very seriously.

“See you tomorrow. I’m going home.”

After Li Yi said goodbye to Bai Youyun, he took a taxi home.

Bai Youyun also caught a taxi and left the museum.

At the same time, Jiang Ying found a corner in the museum and took out her cell phone to make a few calls.

Her first call was to her colleagues at the hospital, telling them to come over tomorrow to watch a good show.

Then, she called the professors at the university, telling them that someone was about to make a breakthrough in the medical field. She asked them to come over tomorrow to watch.

Finally, she called all the famous media and newspaper reporters in the city.

She told them to come over for an interview tomorrow.

This time, Jiang Ying wanted to completely destroy Li Yi’s reputation. This way, Li Yi’s hospital would have no chance to compete with her’s!

She had contacted a ton of people. If Li Yi made a fool of himself tomorrow, word of it would definitely spread throughout the entire city!

If that happened, the entire city would know that Li Yi was a quack. No one would ever ask him to treat their monster pets again!

…

The next morning, just as the weather forecast predicted, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Li Yi arrived at the entrance of the museum early in the morning.

However, as soon as he arrived at the museum, he was shocked by what he found there.

“Damn, there are so many people gathered here. What’s going on?”

Li Yi got out of the car and found two rows of people standing at the entryway. There were doctors, reporters and professors.

“Are they all waiting for me?”

Li Yi realized that this group of people were indeed staring at him.

He pushed his way through the crowd and entered the museum.

Inside, everyone was already there, waiting for Li Yi’s arrival.

Shangguan Yi, Jiang Ying, Bai Youyun, and Lin Ya. A total of four people were waiting for him.

Jiang Ying had alerted the whole city that he was about to make a groundbreaking treatment. It quickly became the hottest topic in the city. Regardless of if it would succeed or not, thousands of eyes were watching him!
