C18 Marrow Cleansing Pill

"If any esteemed guests here find themselves drawn to these jade pendants, feel free to visit my Myriad Spirit General Store to make a purchase. You're free to choose from a variety of styles, and our selection isn't limited to just jade pendants. Rest assured, our store's reputation is solid, with each piece skillfully carved from spirit jade. As the gentleman earlier mentioned, regularly wearing jewelry made from spirit jade can indeed improve your health."

"In addition to these spirit jade ornaments, our store also offers a range of everyday goods, as well as a variety of health-boosting pills and potions!"

At this point, Faang Yu lightened the mood with a jest, "Of course, we don't carry any mythical elixirs for eternal youth."

The crowd chuckled, knowing full well they wouldn't believe in such a thing even if Faang Yu claimed it existed.

"However, we do offer elixirs that can extend one's lifespan, albeit at a steeper price!"

This statement caused a stir among those gathered. Despite their skepticism and the suspicion that Faang Yu might be overstating things, what if it were true?

After all, who doesn't wish for a longer life?

Even if eternal life is out of reach, a few extra years is certainly a welcome prospect.

This is particularly true for the wealthy, who have worked hard and amassed fortunes for what? To enjoy the fruits of their labor in their later years, of course.

Prompted by this, a portly middle-aged man in his fifties stepped forward, his gaze a mix of doubt and hope, and asked, "Young man, do you stand by your words?"

Faang Yu met his gaze confidently and declared, "Absolutely, I stand by them. But as I mentioned earlier, if you're seeking an elixir for immortality, that's something I can't provide. Even if I did have it, I'd need to use it myself, wouldn't I?" His tone was light, the remark clearly in jest.

The man chuckled in response, "The quest for immortality has always been a fanciful dream. I'm not so naive. But since you're bold enough to claim you have everything but the elixir of immortality, I must ask—do you have a cure for cancer with your so-called miraculous remedies?"

"Hmm?" This question captured the attention of many onlookers. Faang Yu examined the man with curiosity and responded, "You seem to be in decent health, despite a few minor issues. Surely you're not at the stage of cancer, are you?"

After he finished speaking, he arched an eyebrow and asked with a sense of understanding, "So, a member of your family has cancer?"

A touch of sorrow crept onto the plump middle-aged man's face as he nodded, "Yes, it's my father. He's in the late stages of lung cancer."

Late-stage cancer was often a death sentence. With the current state of medical science, eradicating the cancer cells completely was an impossibility.

The plump middle-aged man and his family had come to terms with the grim prognosis, yet they clung to a thread of hope. If there was any chance to save his father and extend his life by even a few years, he was prepared to spend his entire fortune.

Friends and acquaintances who knew the middle-aged man well began offering words of comfort.

Faang Yu pondered deeply. The System Shop certainly carried cancer treatment drugs, but they required a level 3 system access. His system was only at level 2. However, that wasn't an issue; with the funds he had available, he could easily upgrade the System Shop to level 3.

"I actually possess a miraculous pill that can treat late-stage lung cancer. It's quite pricey, though— one million per pill. If you're interested, I can provide you with one. It won't cure him completely, but eliminating thirty percent of the cancer cells in your father's body is definitely achievable!" Faang Yu's declaration caused a stir, but skepticism was evident on the faces of those around him.

Late-stage lung cancer was considered incurable.

Faang Yu, so young and yet so bold in his claims, what was he basing this on? Surely he wasn't just trying to exploit the situation for money? That would be audacious to the extreme.

But the middle-aged man couldn't be bothered with such concerns. Despite his internal skepticism, the faintest glimmer of hope was too precious to dismiss. He gripped Faang Yu's shoulders, his voice quivering with emotion, "You... are you telling the truth?"

"Absolutely. I'll give you the pill to try first. If it doesn't work, you owe me nothing. If it does, then you can pay me afterward. How does that sound?" Faang Yu offered with unwavering confidence.

His proposal turned heads and sowed seeds of belief among the onlookers.

Despite the skepticism, there was still a sense of disbelief lingering in the air.

A spark of insight flickered in the eyes of the portly middle-aged man. Initially, he harbored the same suspicions as everyone else, thinking that Faang Yu was merely trying to swindle money from him under the guise of his father's illness. He was prepared to write it off as a loss if it turned out to be a scam. Yet, Faang Yu's audacity had taken him by surprise, instilling a measure of belief. After all, if the treatment proved effective, a million was a trivial sum. And if not, he wouldn't be out a penny. There seemed to be no downside to giving it a shot.

Even the prospect of adverse effects couldn't deter the middle-aged man, especially since the doctors had already given his father less than a month to live. What did he have to lose by taking a chance?

"Many thanks to you, young friend!" The middle-aged man expressed his gratitude without any hesitation.

Faang Yu's hand delved into his pocket, but his intention was focused on retrieving a Marrow Cleansing Pill from the inventory of the System Shop. This particular pill, a bonus from opening a Lucky Gift Bag, had remained unused until now, when it found its perfect moment of utility.

The Marrow Cleansing Pill was a creamy white, roughly the size of a marble. It shared the same hue as the Muscle Meridian Cleansing Pill Faang Yu had given to Su Ruoxue, yet it was denser and its scent far surpassed that of the previous jade pendant. Just a whiff of its aroma left the onlookers feeling invigorated and at ease, their expressions a mix of amazement and shock.

"This Marrow Cleansing Pill is for your father to try," Faang Yu said as he handed over the pill. "But before administering it, ensure you have a large basin of hot water ready, and he must be unclothed. The pill's purpose is to purge bodily impurities, including cellular toxins, which will manifest as a foul odor and surface residue. It's imperative to wash these away immediately."

"Rest assured, young friend. Should this truly prove beneficial, your kindness will be regarded as nothing short of life-giving to our Zhou family!" The stout middle-aged man bowed deeply to Faang Yu, then turned to Old Master Su with an apologetic tone, "Old Master Su, forgive my abrupt departure, but I must..."

Old Master Su gestured dismissively and said warmly, "Go on, and while you're at it, send my regards to your father. If he truly makes a recovery, nothing would please me more!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Old Master Su!" The plump middle-aged man bowed deeply in gratitude and then turned to Faang Yu, "My young friend, may I have your bank account number? As soon as I verify the effectiveness of the medicine pill, I'll deposit one million yuan into your account."

"Sure." Faang Yu provided his bank account details.

The middle-aged man meticulously recorded Faang Yu's information, expressing his thanks repeatedly before hurrying off, eager to proceed.
