“Let Kian stay to help you.” Kian knew medicine too. He might be able to lend a hand.
Zora nodded. “Sounds good p>
Leighton and Jensen stepped out of the room.
“Zora… about Grandpa p>

Kian understood better than anyone just how critical Floyd’s state was. His lips turned pale with
worry.
He practiced modern medicine and relied heavily on medical gear. With no equipment here, he was totally powerless.
He had hidden the full truth from Opal earlier. He feared she would break down.
“Kian, I can save Grandpa p>
Zora kept a calm face, yet her eyes held rock-solid determination. She would bring Floyd back.
She had already used needles to stabilize his heart meridian. This would stop his heart from going into shock mid-treatment.
“Zora… what method are you going to use p>
Kian knew she never lied. A spark of hope lit up his eyes.
“The Eighteen Meridian Technique p>

Zora lifted Floyd’s eyelids. His pupils were already dull and unfocused. They could not waste another second.
“T-The Eighteen Meridian Technique?” Kian’s eyes blew wide. He’d heard of this legendary skill. It was a one-of-a-kind acupuncture method created by Marvin, the former head of the Hale family.
This technique was insanely hard to master. Even Chet never managed to learn it. The whole Hale family died in a fire years ago, and everyone thought this skill was lost forever. He never imagined Zora knew how to do it.
“Kian, I’ll need you to sterilize the used needles with fire later p>
Zora spread out her needle case. It stretched over three feet long and held 721 silver needles in total. They varied in length and thickness. A few needles stood out, shimmering with a sharp purple glow under the lights.

“Got it.” Kian pushed down his shock and nodded.

The Eighteen Meridian Technique targeted nine major vital points on the body.
On the edge of the big toenail. It eases headaches, dizziness and sleeplessness…
On the muscle of the lower leg. It boosts physical strength, regulates organs and helps with digestion.
In the hollow between the thumb and forefinger. It relieves pain, fixes facial stiffness and cures insomnia.
Three inches below the belly button. It builds vitality and improves blood circulation.
In the hollow at the top of the head. It clears dizziness and sharpens the mind.
Two inches above the inner wrist. It protects the heart and treats internal illnesses.
On the back of the thigh. It eases stiff muscles and unblocks body meridians.
Four inches above the belly button. It soothes the stomach and calms digestive issues.
Every single needle placement had to be perfect. There was zero room for mistakes.
Kian stayed right beside her. “What do you want me to do next p>
“Use a silver needle to cut my palm. I can’t do it myself. Squeeze out at least a full cup of blood p>
Zora held out her soft palm and grabbed a cup from the coffee table.
“Why do you need your blood?” Kian was caught off guard.
“I grew up drinking herbal tonics and taking medicinal baths all year round. My blood has strong nourishing effects for sick people. This treatment will last six hours. I’m scared Grandpa’s body won’t hold up p>
Kian’s throat tightened with distress. Zora suffered from severe anemia. Losing so much blood would drain her badly.
“Hurry up.” Zora urged him. “We only have 15 minutes of golden rescue time, and five minutes are already gone p>
She handed him a silver needle, closed her eyes and held out her hand. She couldn’t bring herself to hurt her own palm.
There was no time to get the blood draw supplies. Every extra minute put Floyd in greater danger.

Kian’s expression turned stern. He knew how life-threatening the situation was. He lowered his gaze to Zora’s delicate palm, then dragged the thin needle across her skin. Bright red blood welled up right away.
A sharp stinging pain shot through her hand. Zora pressed her lips tight and curled her palm. Drop after drop of blood fell down.
Kian set the cup under her hand and gently squeezed her palm. Blood streamed steadily into the cup.
Outside the room, Leighton felt a heavy unease settle in his chest. He stared at the closed door, worry filling his eyes.
It didn’t take long to fill the cup. Kian grabbed a first-aid kit and quickly bandaged up her injured palm.
