"If my daughter really can't be saved, then so be it! Please, sir, could you at least take a look at her? Can you check her condition?"The farmer had no other choice but to kneel and bang his head against the ground, pleading desperately with Scott. Soon, blood began to trickle from his forehead.However, Scott showed no compassion. Instead, his face flashed with irritation."I told you earlier that we can't do anything. What are you trying to accomplish by doing this?" Scott scolded the farmer angrily without even approaching the girl."Please, sir, I beg you…"However, the farmer, due to the repeated head banging, seemed to be losing his senses. He continued his actions, mumbling the same plea over and over.Raaina finally showed some pity and stepped forward to say something."Enough! If they won't help, then I will!"However, a voice suppressed with anger suddenly echoed from the side. Liam stepped forward and approached the farmer, stopping him from continuing his self-ha
However, upon hearing Raaina's words, Scott smirked."What do you mean by that? You don't seriously think this inexperienced kid has any skills to cure that little girl, do you?"I'm telling you, it's impossible! You're well aware of the little girl's condition. Her illness is complex, and she's already been given a death sentence!"Scott raised his head, his eyes filled with mockery. "Since this arrogant boy wants to invite trouble upon himself, I want to see how he plans to deal with the aftermath when he fails!"Scott crossed his arms, looking at Liam with a mocking expression, clearly ready to enjoy the show.He was not the only one.Otto stood coldly by, clearly intending to settle the score with Liam after his treatment attempt.The leader and elders of the Medical Guild all displayed the same attitude, and the other members naturally did not dare to say much. They stood behind, anxiously watching Liam at the forefront."Grandmaster Burrey…"Qassim showed a trace of nerv
Liam sighed heavily. It seemed that Naomi's condition was far from ordinary."Was her pulse that erratic at the time?"A cold sneer crossed Scott's face, standing in the back. "Heh. How overconfident!" From Scott's observation, Liam might have some understanding of traditional Hestian medicine, but that was about it. To Scott, Liam's pulse-taking technique was extremely clumsy. It lacked any of the mystical qualities that Qassim mentioned. With only that level of knowledge about traditional Hestian medicine, it was unlikely Liam could save the young girl. In fact, his rash actions might worsen her condition even more!Did that 'Grandmaster Burrey' really think he could find a way to treat Naomi by merely understanding her situation? What a fantasy!"Alas…"Raaina, standing nearby, could not help but sigh as she watched the scene unfold. With her medical skills, she could clearly see Liam's hesitation and clumsy pulse-checking techniques. However, Raaina had spoken up earli
Whoosh!A sudden gust of wind swept through the mountains, rustling the trees with a fierce roar. The force was so strong that the members of the Medical Guild could not keep their eyes open.However, Liam, standing at the eye of the storm, remained unshaken. Astonishingly, the hundreds of golden needles suspended in mid-air did not sway at all. The sight was enough to leave everyone in awe."What…"Raaina froze in her tracks. She stared blankly at the scene before her, disbelief written all over her face. Just moments ago, she had doubted Liam's abilities, but he displayed something beyond her imagination."How… How is this possible?"Scott and Otto were even more astounded. Their expressions were priceless, their faces metaphorically slapped by the sight of over a hundred needles floating above, a testament to their shock and disbelief.Leaving aside whether he could save Naomi, just witnessing that scene spoke volumes. The petty tricks Otto showed earlier were nothing compare
The light in her eyes had completely vanished!"She's already dead. What's the point of trying to save her?"Otto watched the scene unfold before him, his face once again showing a mocking expression.However, before he could say anything more, Liam's voice suddenly rang out just as Naomi lost her breath!"Drop!"The sound was as sharp and clear as a bell, resounding powerfully. In an instant, the hundred golden needles suspended in the air trembled as if they had received a command.Whoosh!The needles descended rapidly from the sky, tracing a path that resembled a golden river in the air.At the same time, a sharp light exploded in Liam's eyes.Everyone believed that the Thirteen Ghost Needles technique was meant to ward off evil and suppress spirits. However, only Liam knew the truth.The Thirteen Ghost Needles technique was, in fact, a technique to snatch life from death at the very moment of passing, to repel ghosts and bring the deceased back!They could drive away the
"My darling girl!"The farmer's voice, filled with overwhelming joy, burst out suddenly. He gently tugged on his little girl's hand, ensuring that her body had indeed recovered. Once he was certain, the farmer turned toward Liam abruptly."Thank you, kind sir! Thank you!"He faced Liam and knelt down again with a thud. Immediately, the sound of him bowing reverberated repeatedly. If the first time the farmer had knelt before Liam it was out of helpless necessity, his bow came from the depths of his heart, sincere and genuine, without a trace of falsehood."Thank you, kind sir! I, Wyatt Candor, will repay your great kindness and virtue even if I must work like an ox or a horse! Truly, thank you, kind sir!"Wyatt, the farmer, seemingly impervious to pain, continued to slam his head against the ground. "Alright, alright!" Liam quickly stepped forward and helped Wyatt up, advising him earnestly."What you need to do now is not bow to me in gratitude but to prepare and consider ho
Raaina recalled the events that occurred after she first met Liam, and she could not help but pause abruptly.At that moment, Otto's voice broke the silence. "It was a misunderstanding on our part back then!"With a flicker of his eyes and a broad smile, he approached Liam and continued, "It was our mistake. We misjudged the situation and didn't recognize the presence of your greatness, Grandmaster Burrey!"It was not just Otto."Grandmaster Burrey truly lives up to his name! To witness the legendary Thirteen Ghost Needles with our own eyes is a rare privilege indeed!"Scott quickly approached Liam, exclaiming, "We were truly blind to your expertise. Grandmaster Burrey, your medical skills are unparalleled. We should've invited you to join the Medical Guild earlier so that we could learn from you!"After everything that had happened, both Otto and Scott's attitudes toward Liam changed instantly. However, Liam's demeanor toward them became noticeably colder after witnessing thei
Liam even spotted many precious medicinal herbs in one corner.However, none of that was what caught his attention the most. What truly captivated him were the shelves lining the walls. Liam clearly saw that the shelves were filled with ancient, yellowed manuscripts.The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, the Classic of Difficulties, the Compendium of Materia Medica, the Divine Farmer's Herb-Root Classic and the Treatise on Cold Damage Disorders.Qassim was not wrong. Indeed, the Medical Guild housed an endless collection of Hestian ancient medical texts. Although the medical techniques Dante taught Liam were perhaps more comprehensive than those displayed in the Healing Hall, the sight of so many ancient Hestian medical texts still struck him with awe.Noticing Liam's change in expression, Scott smiled and said, "Grandmaster Burrey, do you see them? That's right, we have preserved all the ancient Hestian medical texts in the Healing Hall. If you wish to read them, feel free to browse
"Impossible!"The moment that tall figure appeared beside him, Black Wraith's eyes widened in shock, his gaze flashing with utter disbelief."How can you be this fast?"He could not believe it.Liam's speed was beyond anything he had ever imagined!Just a second ago, Liam was still hundreds of meters away, but in the blink of an eye, he was already right beside him.If the aura emanating from Liam earlier had already made Black Wraith's heart tremble, then now… This unimaginable speed made him fully grasp the terrifying implications of Liam's overwhelming presence!All of this… It was completely beyond Black Wraith's comprehension.But in the face of Black Wraith's terrified exclamation, Liam remained silent.His expression was emotionless, his eyes devoid of any fluctuation."I..."This sight plunged Black Wraith into boundless fear.His body trembled as he considered a last-ditch effort to escape!However, the moment he tried to act, he froze. Because Liam was already i
A surging, overwhelming aura erupted from Liam's body, reaching the heavens and shaking the earth!In an instant, under the influence of this intense aura, the once-chaotic cafe seemed as if it were swept by a violent storm. Objects all around trembled incessantly!For the first time, Liam, fueled by anger, fully unleashed his inner energy as his aura surged ever higher!"What…"The moment this scene unfolded, a flicker of shock flashed through the eyes of Bluebird.As someone who had reached the peak of martial arts—a true martial arts Ascendant—Bluebird's progress in martial arts was closely linked to Liam. However, she had broken through a critical barrier and stepped into a new realm!Though she was aware of Liam's extraordinary strength, after stepping into the martial arts Ascendant level, Bluebird never ceased her cultivation. She even believed that the gap between herself and Grandmaster Burrey was steadily narrowing.Yet now, as this scene unfolded before her, Bluebird
At that time, Yaksha casually mentioned that Liam was accompanied by a woman protecting him.When the Monochrome Duo Wraiths heard this, they found it utterly ridiculous.They did not know what kind of man needs a woman to protect him?When Arkem sent the Monochrome Duo Wraiths, he probably had similar thoughts—Liam would be dealt with swiftly!After all, compared to ordinary people, an advanced martial arts Master is already superhuman!But even in their wildest dreams, the Monochrome Duo Wraiths never expected the female bodyguard they underestimated and looked down upon turned out to be a martial arts Ascendant!Yes.A martial arts Ascendant!Only a martial arts Ascendant could effortlessly cleave the front of a massive truck in half with a single slash!When that scene unfolded before their eyes, the Monochrome Duo Wraiths froze on the spot!How many martial arts Ascendants are there in the entire Hestia?Since stepping into the martial arts world, the Monochrome Duo Wr
It was not just the man in white who froze.The man in black also stood there in shock, staring at Liam with an expression full of disbelief!Earlier, after receiving hints from Yaksha that Liam might be extraordinarily skilled, they made some preparations.To avoid a direct confrontation that could cause unnecessary trouble, they decided to use a truck to kill Liam!With the Nosh family's influence in Juneau, killing someone with a truck wouldn ot cause any negative repercussions at all. And a ten-ton truck hitting at full force could completely turn Liam into pulp!But who could have imagined…Despite such a violent collision, Liam was completely unharmed, as if he hadn't been affected in the slightest!Their hearts were filled with astonishment!And at that moment—Buzz—Up ahead, a dazzling flash of light suddenly appeared!A gleam of a blade shot down abruptly from above, slicing through the front of the truck ahead!Boom!!!In an instant, the truck blocking Liam's pa
"My parents said you told them you were taking over South City Bank."Serena sighed.Clearly, she had not taken the statement seriously. Even though she once had her suspicions, she eventually dismissed those thoughts after calming down.After all, the acquisition of United Finance by the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation had happened so swiftly that news of it had not yet spread widely. Only some rumors had circulated within certain inner circles in South City.Serena knew nothing of this.To her, Liam's claim about taking over South City Bank sounded utterly ridiculous."So, since your mother already told you my purpose for going to South City Bank, why are you asking me where I got the information from?" Liam raised his head and looked at Serena."You…"Hearing this, Serena froze, her stunning face full of confusion. She couldn't make sense of what Liam was saying."Ah…"Seeing her reaction, Liam sighed lightly. He was about to take out his phone to make a call."I'll let
She looked at Liam, her gaze filled with sincerity.The moment Liam heard what Serena said, he froze.His eyes widened in astonishment as he looked at her.This was the first time Liam had heard Serena apologize!"If it weren't for you this time, I really don't know what would've happened to the Serena Group..."Serena lowered her head, her cold yet stunning face showing a trace of complexity.Seeing this, Liam was taken aback once again.Compared to the Serena of the past, she had changed so much!It was clear that after going through a series of events, Serena had grown a lot. Her attitude had softened significantly."You don't need to thank me for those matters." But quickly, Liam regained his composure and waved it off lightly. "After all, those poisoned patients were innocent. I couldn't bear to see them suffer like that."However, there's a slight error in what you just said."He raised his head to look at Serena."It wasn't the master of the Medicine Guild who treate
"Hmph!"However, Lucy ignored Agustine. With a cold snort, she angrily picked up the approval documents for the White Glycoside Cream and marched out of the room.Seeing this, Agustine hurriedly followed her.In his view, Lucy, the person in charge of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, was perfect in every way, except for her somewhat fiery temper.Meanwhile, Liam had no idea what had happened after he left. But even if he had known, he might have assumed Lucy's reaction was due to her frustration over the promotion of White Glycoside Cream.At the moment, he was already at the airport, boarding a flight back to South City.The next day.Following the address agreed upon with Serena, Liam arrived at a coffee shop in South City.He was quite familiar with this place. This was where he and Serena had met for the first time.On the day Liam was released from prison, Serena had wanted to meet him here, but Hailey had done everything possible to stop it — all in this very coff
Even so, she was still shocked by the news about Matthias."Whether or not we visit doesn't matter."However, faced with an opportunity that most people could only dream of, Liam remained unusually calm. He waved his hand and said, "Doing more beneficial work for the advancement of traditional Hestian medicine is far more important than visiting me!"Liam did not care much about Matthias's visit. For him, he had already witnessed far broader horizons!"In any case, Grandmaster Burrey, thank you this time!"Agustine did not dare respond directly to Liam's words. Instead, he kept bowing his head in gratitude, saying repeatedly, "Thank you, thank you.""No need to thank me." Liam turned to Agustine and said, "If you truly feel indebted, then work closely with Lucy to expedite the production of the White Glycoside Cream.""I'll still have use for the medication once it's launched.""Grandmaster Burrey, rest assured!"Hearing this, Agustine lifted his head and responded earnestly,
"Miss Hill…"Hearing Lucy's words, Agustine froze suddenly. He opened his mouth but couldn't figure out how to respond at that moment.Whether it was Lucy's remarks or the questions raised by Matthias, neither was wrong.It was just that they viewed things from different perspectives.The more it was like this, the more unsure Agustine was about how to persuade them.However, at this moment—"That's enough," Liam's voice sounded. He waved his hand and said calmly, "It's fine if we don't promote it for now. As long as the medicine can go to market, there won't be any problems."Liam maintained a rather composed attitude about all of this. After all, the original purpose of the White Glycoside Cream was simply to treat those few patients with severe skin damage at Golden Cross Hospital.For now, as long as they could obtain the medicine and heal their scars, the White Glycoside Cream would have fulfilled its intended purpose."But Grandmaster Burrey…" Hearing this, Lucy turned he
