After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

The crisp snapping sound suddenly erupted, startling even those standing nearby, after all, it was the neck.

Once contorted too far, it could cause direct spinal injury, leading to instant death.

If it weren't for the old man's good fortune, he probably would've died a long time ago in his youth.

After Chen Yu released his grip, all eyes focused on the scene.

Not only was the elderly person completely unharmed, but he also sat there, gently turning his neck as if nothing had happened, occasionally shrugging his shoulders.

"This is so comfortable, I never imagined that after so many years, my neck could still move freely."

Chen Yu didn't say much, just stretched his own muscles a bit before continuing to treat the next elderly patient.

Zhou Shengtao had also come to his senses by this time. He had specifically taken time off just to spend quality time with these elderly folks.

Seeing so many of them being cured right before his eyes, he became even more excited.

A few of the elderly people pulled Zhou Shengtao aside when he woke up.

"The young folks these days are getting more and more incredible. Such orthopedic skills would definitely rank as a top-level doctor in a hospital, making a good income in a year. To think he would become our unofficial team member!"

Zhou Shengtao chuckled, "He's certified to practice medicine, and not only is his medical skill excellent, but his cooking is also delicious. Don't be fooled by his age; he has participated in several world-class culinary competitions and has been awarded the title of Chef Supreme."

The elderly folks gathered there gaped in astonishment; they hadn't expected Chen Yu to be so exceptional.

The elderly people who used to cook for Chen Yu suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.

"It turns out he is a Chef Supreme. I really was playing the lute to a cow!"

For the following days, Chen Yu stayed in the nursing home until he had cured all the elders' ailments.

Just as he was about to leave, Zhou Shengtao suddenly took him to the back of the nursing home.

Compared to other areas, this one seemed much more desolate, and not far away stood a lone little house on a clear patch of land.

What was puzzling was that the small house was built entirely out of reinforced concrete, with an additional layer of steel rebar welded around it.

There wasn't a single window to be found on all sides of the house, and the only door, made of iron, could only admit one person at a time, beside which stood various scanning devices.

When Chen Yu saw this scene, his eyes widened in surprise; he hadn't expected to find such a place in a nursing home.

"Zhou, this looks more like a prison. How can there be such a place in a nursing home?"

Zhou Shengtao sighed helplessly.

"Inside is an old hero, but he suffered a head injury during a mission back in the day, which led to mental disarray; sometimes he goes mad and kills on sight! Besides, there are many enemies outside who want to take him down quickly, so we had no choice but to confine him here in this way."

Chen Yu nodded and then headed straight for the small iron door.

Zhou Sheng quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"There are many scanning devices outside and numerous traps and weapons set up. If you just walk in like that, the chance of survival is extremely low! I brought you here to ask if there's anything you can do to treat this kind of condition?"

Chen Yu stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.

"Although I'm not sure I can cure him completely, I can still alleviate his condition. Captain Zhou, you can rest assured and leave him to me."

Zhou Shengtao hesitated for a moment, then opened the heavy door and closely followed Chen Yu inside.

This place was extremely gloomy and terrifying because it never saw sunlight, and being underground, there was always a chilling sensation.

Chen Yu didn't care much about that and simply quickened his pace to the end of the corridor.

There was a particularly sturdy room here, and upon arriving, Zhou Shengtao's body couldn't help but tremble.

Although it wasn't his first time here, the horrific scenes inside the room always left him with lingering fears.

As he was trembling, preparing to open the door, a sudden thunderous noise came from inside—it sounded like someone was smashing the door, and the solid steel door already showed a multitude of fist marks.

Chen Yu's eyes widened in disbelief—the door was made from steel plates thirty centimeters thick, and an ordinary person couldn't possibly deform it.

But judging by the frequency and force of the blows from inside, it wouldn't be long before the iron door was shattered.

Chen Yu couldn't care less and immediately grabbed the doorknob, yanking it harshly backward.

The solid door was torn out directly, and at the same time, a huge fist burst forth from the darkness.

Zhou Shengtao was startled. He knew the formidable power of the elder's punch; if it landed on Chen Yu, even if he didn't die, his chest would turn into mush.

Almost instinctively, he wanted to shield Chen Yu, but the punch was too fast and had already landed on Chen Yu's chest.

However, Chen Yu had no intention of dodging and simply threw Zhou Shengtao out of the way, then bravely took the punch with his own chest.

A dull thud resounded as if the punch had hit a wall of dirt.

The next moment, Chen Yu surged forward and threw a punch of his own.

Another heavy collision sounded, and after what felt like an eternity, the noise from within finally ceased. Taking his chances, Zhou Shengtao crept in with his flashlight.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

An old man with white hair and a robust body sat in a chair, with Chen Yu standing beside him.

It was as if nothing had happened just moments before, with Chen Yu still gently massaging the old man at the shoulder blades.

"You're quite something, kid. In the midst of our fight, you managed to insert silver needles into me, not only restoring my consciousness but also giving me a feeling of clarity and refreshment!"

Chen Yu smiled faintly, knowing the dangers he had just faced alone. During the fight with the old man, he had done his utmost to realign the dislocated bones to unblock his nerves.

He also had to seize the opportunity to insert the silver needles into the old man's acupoints to help restore his consciousness in sync.

If anything had gone even slightly awry, Chen Yu could have lost his life.

Fortunately, everything had been accomplished in an orderly fashion.

Zhou Shengtao, too, let out a long sigh of relief and ran over excitedly.

"Master, you've finally come to!"

The old man was taken aback when he saw Zhou Shengtao and tenderly stretched out his hand to caress his cheek.

"Little Taotao, I never thought I'd get to see you again in my lifetime! You've suffered a lot these years."
