"Just you wait!"Ida cast one last cold glance at Liam before turning away. Liam, however, had already seen through everything. He shook his head, dismissing Ida."The Medical Guild?"The words Ida had mentioned lingered in his mind, causing him to squint slightly.Not long after, the Rolls-Royce stopped outside an estate. Howser owned multiple properties in South City, so they had not come to the Hush Purple Gardens."We're here!"Ida stepped out of the car, casting another cold glance at Liam. "My grandfather is upstairs. He's about to receive treatment. You better pray nothing happens to him."She then led her entourage upstairs. Liam followed suit, keeping pace with the group.They soon arrived at the second-floor corridor. Due to Howser's illness, many people were anxiously gathered there. Among them was Preston, whom Liam had previously met at the Hush Purple Gardens.However, the most striking figure in the crowd was a tall man standing at the front, exuding a commandin
Liam did not speak yet when Ida's furious voice suddenly burst out. "I just can't understand who gave him the courage to say such things!"If it weren't for my grandfather's unwavering protection, I would've taught him a lesson long ago!"Ida looked coldly at Liam.Hearing Ida's words, Chester could not help but frown. He heard plenty about Liam from Howser. Although the real cause of Howser's paralysis was yet to be determined, he knew that Howser's health rapidly deteriorated after he started learning martial arts from Liam. Moreover, he never heard Howser mention that Liam had any medical skills. How was it now that the old man's condition could only be resolved by him?However, unlike Ida, Chester did not immediately assume Liam was a fraud."Go downstairs and wait," Chester said, shaking his head after glancing at Liam. "You don't need to worry about the old man's situation."In consideration of Howser, Chester felt he was already being courteous enough to Liam. Who would
"Yes, it's me." Hearing the voice from the room ahead, Liam raised his head."Could it be Liam?" Upon hearing Liam's confirmation, Howser was instantly thrilled. He quickly ordered, "Chester, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and bring Liam in!""Come with me." At Howser's words, Chester shook his head slightly. Then, he went to the door and opened it for Liam. The icy glint in Liam's eyes gradually faded as he stepped past Chester and entered the room. After Liam entered, Chester let out a long sigh, giving Liam a deep look. Upon closer inspection, one could see beads of sweat dotting Chester's forehead. "That brat, he is quite intimidating!" Although he did not know how Liam managed it, Chester was reluctant to admit it. But in that moment when Liam started the countdown, the Underground Emperor of South City felt the most profound fear he ever experienced. It was as if, in that instant, he was facing not a man but a god of immense power. Shaking his head
Liam never showcased his martial arts skills.Although he mentioned that martial arts were meant for killing, Howser suspected there was something more to it, some unspeakable secret Liam was hiding. Worried about hitting a sore spot, Howser decided not to press further."A special reason?" Ida sneered. "I think it's because he doesn't know how! This time, as soon as he heard that Grandpa had problems after practicing his Lesser Nine Skies Tai Chi Fist, he rushed over to see you!"Isn't this behavior proof that he knows his technique is flawed and feels guilty?" Ida was furious."I'm here for Howser's health," Liam's calm voice interrupted before Howser could speak."For my grandfather's health?" Ida's tone turned even more mocking. "You paralyzed my grandfather with your fake martial arts, and now you're pretending to treat him, thinking you can deceive us again! With so many people here, I want to see how you plan to deceive us this time!"She stepped back, giving Liam more s
Ida was dissatisfied with Liam at first, but her negative emotions were not that strong.After all, despite Howser losing sensation in his lower body due to practicing the martial arts Liam mentioned, Ida believed that with the medical experts brought by Chester, her grandfather's health could still be restored.Through Chester's descriptions, Ida had some understanding of these exceptional medical experts. She was well aware of their extraordinary skills.However, Ida never imagined that after Qassim examined her grandfather, he would declare himself helpless! This statement implied that Howser might never be able to stand again for the rest of his life.The moment Ida heard Qassim’s words, her resentment toward Liam became uncontrollable. All she wanted now was for Liam to pay the price. However, since her grandfather was still protecting Liam, she needed to find a suitable excuse.Recalling Liam’s boastful claim that only he could resolve her grandfather's condition, a cold g
Howeser waved his hand dismissively, "In my entire life, I've never been willing to be second to anyone. I thought that as I got older, I would no longer have a chance to shine. Who would have thought that in the end, I would face a problem that even the greatest medical experts couldn't solve?"I've lived a worthy life!" Howser laughed heartily.Seeing Howser's demeanor, Chester's eyes filled with a deep sense of sorrow. Having followed Howser for so many years, their relationship evolved far beyond that of master and disciple—they were more like family. Chester understood better than anyone just how strong-willed the old man lying on the bed was. The thought of him spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair was something Chester knew Howser couldn't truly be at peace with, despite the calm front he put on."Sigh," Chester let out another heavy sigh. No one expected a seemingly minor issue to escalate to this extent."Grandpa, don't be so pessimistic!" At that moment, Ida's
Hearing Liam's words, a cold sneer flickered across the face of Ida, who was standing behind him. She could not understand where Liam got the courage to speak like that, especially at this moment."Young man, no matter what kind of medical skills you've learned," Qassim said with a frown, "isn't it a bit excessive to be this arrogant?"He felt he was more than polite to Liam. Yet, Liam seemed rather full of himself."I'm not being arrogant," Liam replied calmly, shaking his head. To him, he was simply expressing his inner thoughts. Regardless of whether Qassim was from the Medical Guild or not, Liam believed he could handle everything before him on his own.However, to Qassim, Liam's calm words sounded extremely arrogant. "Then I want to see what skills you have!" he declared, stepping aside and watching Liam coldly.Liam, however, paid no attention to the surrounding situation. After speaking, he moved to stand beside Howser."Liam," Howser began, opening his mouth as if to sa
It seemed like a new approach was necessary.Liam squinted his eyes, lifted a finger lightly, and applied pressure with the force of twelve cuns, making a subtle vibration."Hmm?"Upon seeing this, Qassim made a surprised sound, standing stunned in place."Master Xera, what’s wrong?" Ida hurriedly asked, noticing the situation."How does he know the Floating Four-Section Pulse Diagnosis?" Qassim stared intently at Liam, his eyes filled with disbelief."Is that method uncommon?" Ida felt a sudden jolt in her heart at Qassim’s sudden change."For ordinary traditional Hestian medicine practitioners, this pulse diagnosis method is completely unknown!" Qassim nodded heavily.The Floating Four-Section Pulse Diagnosis was handed down from the medical sage Jarold Zoriah's 'Golden Chamber Essential Prescriptions'! In the traditional Hestian medicine community, it was been lost. Only within certain medical circles were there scattered inheritances, and even then, most members of those
