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
"Who's making that noise?!"Upon hearing the abrupt voice, Ida frowned deeply and looked up, her anger palpable. They chose this tranquil estate for Howser's recovery precisely because of its quiet environment. Yet now, someone dared to create noise, disturbing Howser!As she glanced toward the source of the sound, she was momentarily taken aback. Nothing seemed out of place. Liam's fingers rested lightly on Howser's wrist, and with each gentle tap of his index finger—Thump—Thump—Thump—A sound, reminiscent of a heartbeat, echoed continuously. Each tap from Liam's finger produced a dull, resonant noise."What is he doing?" Ida, unable to understand the situation, turned to Qassim with a look of dissatisfaction and asked, "Master Xera, what exactly is that fraud Liam doing, making such a loud noise?"However, her question went unanswered. Qassim, upon witnessing the scene, stood rooted to the spot, eyes wide and face filled with shock. Each reverberating sound seemed to strik
"At some point in time, I never dared to imagine that I would be fortunate enough to meet such a Grandmaster of the healing arts!" Qassim could not care less about Ida's thoughts. He gazed in a daze at Liam ahead, his expression full of utmost reverence.Regardless of the impact this had on Qassim and Ida, Liam, after performing the Floating Four-Section Pulse Diagnosis, narrowed his eyes. The conclusion he reached was the same as Qassim's. Aside from the damage caused by the incomplete Lesser Nine Skies Tai Chi Fist boxing he performed when he first met Howser, Howser's pulse was steady and strong, showing no signs of any problem. That slight damage could not possibly be the cause of Howser's paralysis. Liam furrowed his brow."G-Grandmaster Burrey!" Qassim seemed to notice Liam's confusion and spoke carefully and respectfully, "I have also felt Mister Ulrick's pulse. Indeed, it is extraordinarily steady without any anomalies. Perhaps Mister Ulrick's issue doesn't stem from th
The legendary 'Three-Part Nine Pulse Diagnosis' technique, passed down from the Classic of Internal Medicine, was lost even among their Medical Guild.Qassim and his peers only heard of this rare pulse-diagnosing method through legends. They did not know exactly how it was performed but had a rough idea from hearsay.Observing Howser's reaction while he lay on the sickbed, Qassim was certain that Liam was using the Three-Part Nine Pulse Diagnosis technique."This-"Qassim's eyes were filled with disbelief. But this was just the beginning. After using the comprehensive diagnostic method on Howser, Liam frowned. He still could not identify the root cause of Howser's ailment. It seemed as if there was nothing wrong with Howser's body, even though his lower half was completely numb.Liam narrowed his eyes. The next moment, he clasped Howser's wrist with a sudden grip.'Pulse Meridian Method' from the 'Compendium of Pulses'!Seeing this, Qassim trembled, nearly collapsing to the grou
