Chapter 16

Author: Remorseless Lucas
While Layla spoke for Liam in the ordinary ward, Liam and Lucy had already entered the special care ward.

Inside the ward, silence reigned. Only the faint hum of medical instruments could be heard. Julian lay quietly on the bed with tubes protruding from his body. In just three short days, the once spirited elder had withered, his breath barely perceptible.

In the room, besides Julian, there was another elderly man with snowy white hair. He stooped over Julian's bed, earnestly observing his condition. However, in the end, he straightened up and let out a heavy and solemn sigh.

"Miss, this is Professor Harker from Asterion. He contacted him about this as well."

As Lucy entered the ward, another servant from the Hill family approached her and whispered, "Yesterday, Mister Harker was delayed due to another surgery. He rushed here as soon as he arrived in South City today, saying he wanted to check on the Mister Hill Senior's condition."

Upon hearing the voice behind her, Professor Ha

    "What?" Lucy's eyes widened instantly. She had no idea that her grandfather's condition had deteriorated to such an extent! It had only been three days!"How could it be that bad?" Lucy panicked. Although the Hill family was still functioning normally at the moment, Lucy was responsible for half of the family's business. However, the real linchpin of the Hill family lay in the man lying in bed!"Miss Hill, if you hadn't asked, I doubt anyone would have informed you. Based on my observations just now, the various indicators within Mister Hill's body have reached dangerously critical levels, and his organs are already showing signs of failure." Jimmy sighed."According to the previous examination results, including the fact that the old man's condition has deteriorated to this extent in such a short time, I deduce that he has been poisoned!"But in order to attempt treatment, we must locate the poison, which we have no way of doing."We don't even know the composition of the poi

    After ten breaths passed, Liam suddenly moved just as Jimmy was about to mock. He lightly lifted his index finger, forming an arch shape, then struck down on Julian's wrist!Liam seemed gentle, but in that instant, a buzz seemed to scatter invisible sound waves everywhere! After the index finger came down, it was the middle finger and, finally, the ring finger! Up, middle, down! Three parts, nine beats! Liam's three fingers continuously struck Julian's wrist at a very strange frequency.If there were someone genuinely knowledgeable about ancient oriental medicine here, they would be stunned into silence in an instant! The pulse-taking technique Liam employed was long lost, only recorded in legendary ancient texts as the 'three parts, nine beats, pulse-shocking section'!As Liam continued to shock the pulse without stopping, a strange feedback entered his mind. "Indeed, it's poison." Liam slightly furrowed his brow. It had to be admitted that Western medicine did have its

    Jimmy had been practicing medicine for decades. He had never experienced anything as incredible as this. The way Liam diagnosed the patient by pulse showed that his abilities were simply extraordinary, surpassing Jimmy's understanding entirely. How had Jimmy never heard of Liam before? Nevertheless, despite Jimmy's astonishment and confusion, Liam paid him no mind. He immediately placed his hand back on Julian's wrist. Although he had located the position of the poison, there were still other areas in Julian's body that still needed examination."Impressive, Grandmaster Burrey!" Lucy's eyes lit up at the scene before her. Since Liam had resumed his work, she did not dare interrupt him. She turned excitedly to Jimmy and said, "Mister Harker, now that you've found the poison in my grandfather, does that mean he can be saved?"Although Jimmy's shock had yet to dissipate, there was a hint of displeasure in his heart at Liam's disregard for him. However, as a doctor, he knew the pat

    "What...?" Jimmy froze, turning sharply to gaze at Liam. "What... What do you mean by that?"Not only Jimmy but even Lucy hurriedly looked at Liam."Grandmaster Burrey, can you save my grandfather?" She sounded surprised. "But didn't Mister Harker say that my grandfather's condition has exceeded the scope of what the current medical system can cure?"Liam shook his head lightly. "But I never said that.""A life is at stake. You better not speak recklessly!" Jimmy stared, wide-eyed, at Liam. "Since you've found the source of the poisoning in Mister Hill, you should be aware of Mister Hill's physical condition!"With such a dire physical condition, along with the complex symptoms and poisons in his body, how can you cure his illness?" Jimmy simply did not believe Liam!If it were not for Liam pinpointing the poison's source through pulse diagnosis, Jimmy might have started cursing by now!He claimed he could do something even the Gods could not? Was he just saying whatever came

    Liam gazed at Julian lying on the bed in the silent hospital room, taking a deep breath. Liam gently reached out his hand. Suddenly, the Harvest Union needle pouch appeared in his grasp. And then, he deftly opened it.In the dimly lit room, the faint glow emanating from the Harvest Union golden needles added a mysterious aura.Liam delicately picked out the longest golden needle in the pouch. From the very beginning, Liam had not considered surgical treatment. He had his own healing methods.However, Jimmy was partially correct. The toxin was incredibly complex. Despite the toxin sac being located in Julian's shinbone, it had already spread throughout his body, continuously proliferating.However, Jimmy did not know that neither sending Julian to Asterion for treatment nor the method he had suggested to stabilize Julian's vital signs upon locating the toxin would be of any use.Julian's condition was far more critical than Jimmy had realized.The toxin within Julian's body did

    Meanwhile, Lucy anxiously paced back and forth outside the ward, worry etched on her face."I wonder how my grandfather is doing…"Since the ward's door had closed, Lucy felt like each day dragged on endlessly. As for Jimmy, who should have returned to Asterion long ago, it was unclear whether he stayed there out of concern for Julian's possible accident or to assist. Perhaps he was waiting to reprimand Liam, or maybe he harbored some unrealistic hope.Regardless, Jimmy did not choose to leave. He stood in the corridor alongside her."Miss Hill, there's no need to be overly anxious," Jimmy comforted. "Being anxious won't help. All we can do now is wait patiently. At least there haven't been any emergencies in the ward."Jimmy paused and sighed. Then, he softly advised, "However, the head of the Hill family is unwell. Miss Hill, you should be prepared for the worst at any time."Jimmy did not believe Liam could positively impact Julian's condition. He would be thankful if Liam d

    "Grandmaster Burrey!"Lucy immediately turned around upon hearing Liam's voice. Overwhelmed with excitement, she dashed into Liam's embrace. Her slender figure, clad in the tight dress, pressed tightly against him."Grandmaster Burrey, thank you so much! My grandfather is fine! He's alright!"Tears of joy streamed down Lucy's face. Although she was confident in Liam, in reality, Lucy's heart was filled with uncertainty after hearing the opinions of numerous doctors—including Jimmy's recommendation. Asking Liam to treat Julian was merely a last resort. Initially, she hoped it would be enough for Liam to temporarily alleviate Julian's condition.Lucy never imagined that Liam would actually be able to cure Julian.Liam lowered his head, a faint fragrance lingering around him. "It's nothing."He reached out and patted Lucy's shoulder calmly as he continued, "Don't let your emotions fluctuate too much.""I'm sorry, Grandmaster Burrey." Lucy seemed to realize her own indiscretion.

    However, even though his heart remained full of astonishment, Jimmy's mind was full of curiosity.He slowly turned to look at Liam, swallowed a gulp of saliva, and asked in a hoarse voice, "May I ask how exactly did you do it?"The renowned doctor in Hestia was unconsciously respectful when speaking to Liam.Liam answered, "It was nothing more than completely removing the toxins from his body."Liam did not pay attention to Jimmy's previous doubts. Or rather, he simply did not care."Mister Hill's condition is extremely poor. A slight move could affect his whole body. How can you ensure that while removing the toxins from Mister Hill's body, there won't be a reaction due to the spread of toxins?"Jimmy did not realize that his attitude became even more respectful, his eyes fixed on Liam without blinking.He even regarded Liam as a teacher at that moment, respectfully seeking advice!Liam turned to look at Julian lying on the bed and said lightly, "It's not difficult. You just n

    Is all of this real or fake?"Commander Warren."Bluebird looked at Gabriel, his voice cold and calm, and nodded slightly.Compared to before, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel had noticeably changed.If, in the past, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel was like that of a subordinate to a superior in the military, then now, although she still showed respect, that sense of duty-bound obedience was gone.Because Bluebird knew very well who she was serving now!"You're really not dead..."Hearing Bluebird's admission, a flash of utter shock crossed Gabriel's eyes.In the next moment."Grand... Grandmaster Burrey..."His eyes trembled as he looked at Liam, his voice so dry due to the shock that it came out strained.Gabriel was well aware of how severe Bluebird's injuries were at that time.It could be said that everyone present had basically declared Bluebird's death.When they returned to the temporary base of the Nine Nether Squad, it was merely to fulfill Bluebird's last

    At the same time…Liam was completely unaware of everything happening in South City.He also had no idea that, due to some misunderstandings, Willow was already furious and seeking help to rescue him from the Central Military Region.At this moment, he had already arrived at the Southern Military Region and met with Gabriel, who was overwhelmed with work."Grandmaster Burrey, please don't blame me for not coming to greet you…"Noticing Liam's arrival, Gabriel forced a bitter smile. After glancing at the documents in his hand, he said helplessly, "I received an unexpected notice, and I really couldn't get away…"It was clear that Gabriel genuinely felt guilty about not being able to greet Grandmaster Burrey in person.Even now, having already met Liam, he was still busy explaining himself."No need."Liam shook his head calmly.He did not care about any of this.What Liam was concerned about was the matter regarding Bluebird that Gabriel mentioned over the phone."Go ahead.

    "So, Miss Lloyd, you mean to ask me to get someone out of the military for you?"Hearing Serena's words, Kenton was stunned for a moment."Mister Welford, what's wrong?"Serena's voice suddenly became flustered. "Is it a bit difficult?""From what you're saying, the unit that took the person should belong to the Central Military Region, which is different from our Western Military Region."Kenton hesitated. "Crossing war zones is indeed a bit troublesome…""Mister Welford, you must help me!"Upon hearing this, Serena grew even more anxious. "We can pay, as long as you can rescue him…"However, before she could finish, Kenton's voice interrupted."But how could I refuse a beauty's request!" Kenton chuckled heartily. "Don't worry, even if it's difficult, I can handle it. Coincidentally, I'm in South City lately. Even the commander of the Central Military Region has to give me some face!""Just give me the details about your friend and wait for my news."His voice was full of co

    "Then give it a try."Sam chuckled and agreed, "I just didn't expect that one day, our Lloyd Group would choose to save that worthless Liam!""Alright."Hearing the voices around her, Hailey also nodded in agreement.However, soon, she seemed to recall something, turned to look at Serena, and asked, "But do we really have the ability to get someone out of the military's hands?""Yes."Hearing this, Serena gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with determination."If you might have a way, then go ahead and try."Seeing this, Hailey said no more and waved her hand."I just hope we don't go through all this trouble, only for that ungrateful Liam to turn his back on us!""Mom, don't worry, that won't happen!"Serena shook her head.Immediately, she turned around and quickly left the Lloyd family mansion.Not long after, Serena returned to her office at Lloyd Group.She hurriedly made her way to her desk and started searching through a pile of documents.When she finally spott

    "I…" Seeing this scene, Serena's body froze abruptly, trembling slightly out of anxiety.She desperately wanted to understand the situation immediately and help Liam.However, the situation in front of her made it clear that rushing off alone to save Liam was definitely not an option!"Phew…"Serena took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.Was there any way to convince the members of the Lloyd family to help Liam?The next moment, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something."Mom, it's not that I care about Liam, but if we want to collaborate with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation on the White Glycoside Cream project, Liam cannot be in trouble!"Serena raised her head and looked at Hailey."What does our Lloyd Group's collaboration with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation have to do with that useless Liam?"Hailey frowned deeply."Mom! Think about Liam's relationship with Lucy, and you'll understand!"Serena hurriedly replied, "When you were discu

    "We really don't know."Sam shook his head, but soon, a disdainful sneer appeared on his face. "But that useless Liam struts around deceiving people all day long. Maybe that's why he got into trouble with the military!""That's actually possible!" Hailey's face flashed with realization and mockery. "Looks like he's finally getting what he deserves!""Exactly!""The military isn't like us—they won't tolerate that useless Liam."Charice, standing in the back, let out a cold laugh. "Just seeing him boast and spew nonsense all day, it was obvious he'd end up like this sooner or later!""Hahaha!""Right, he's just getting what he asked for!""Serves him right for showing off in front of us all the time—he's practically asking for it!"…Inside the Lloyd family mansion, a series of schadenfreude-laden laughs echoed. Everyone from the Lloyd family started mocking Liam one after another.Among them, Etchen's voice was the most grating!However, just as the Lloyd family members were

    Hailey froze for a moment, then immediately frowned. Biting her teeth in frustration, she snapped, "What the hell is going on with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation?" "A project this big, with such high profits, and they didn't even inform us? We didn't even know about the launch of the White Glycoside Cream!"And now, they won't even let us in? The Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation has gone too far!" Hailey was seething with resentment. "They really have overstepped!" Standing beside her, Sam also wore a dark expression. Other members of the Lloyd family started cursing as well. None of them had expected the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to treat the Lloyd Group this way! However… In contrast to the growing anger around her, Serena remained calm, standing silently at the back. She didn't think there was anything wrong with the way the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation had handled things. She had discussed this matter with the Lloyd family mem

    However, Charice and Sam had barely stepped into the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation building for five minutes before they were sent out in disgrace. Just like the previous attempts, they failed once again. This time, they didn't even get past the lobby—before, at least, they could meet with someone in charge. "What's going on? Before, we could at least talk to the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's representatives, but this time, we didn't even get to see anyone!" Sam's face was filled with frustration. "If we can't get in, it means the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation really doesn't want to work with us…" Charice sighed. "But if they don't want to cooperate with the Lloyd Corporation, shouldn't they at least give us a reason?" Before Charice could finish speaking, Sam cut in, his voice laced with anger. "We used to have such a good working relationship with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, but now we don't even know about the launch of the White Gly

    "That useless trash, what did he do this time?" Sam turned his head toward Charice, his voice dry and hoarse. "Who… who knows…" Charice shook her head, her expression stiff. "Could it really be that he caused some huge trouble, which is why such a big scene happened?" Just based on that scene earlier—forget about escorting Liam. It was enough to wage a small-scale battle! Without hesitation, they quickly picked up their pace and hurried forward. "The man at the entrance just now, the one taken away in the military vehicle—do you know what happened?" Charice stopped a staff member of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, who had also been hiding to the side in shock, and hurriedly asked. They wanted to understand exactly what had happened! Why had so many soldiers chosen to take Liam away right in front of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation building? However, the staff member they questioned was just a low-level employee of the foundation. Forget t
