Li Xu set down the medical kit he was carrying and said matter-of-factly, "You flatter me, Elder Li. The Zither Fish Tea can only temporarily alleviate the symptoms. Curing the liver toxicity for good will require a more potent medicine."
Zither Fish Tea is a remarkable tea with excellent detoxification properties.
For an ordinary patient, drinking Zither Fish Tea alone would be enough for a cure.
However, the toxins in Elder Li's liver are deeply rooted. Combined with his advanced age, physical frailty, and insufficient Yang Qi, the Zither Fish Tea alone is not enough to cure his illness.
"Oh?" Elder Li's interest was piqued. "What kind of potent medicine? I've used plenty of precious Chinese herbs over the years—Wild Ginseng, cordyceps, Saffron... their effects have all been limited."
Li Xu didn't answer right away. Instead, he first took Elder Li's pulse.
The pulse beneath his fingertips allowed him to relax slightly—it was relatively stable.
