On Templer Road, the officials from the city hall were driven away in disarray.Eventually, the residents of Templer Road erected barricades and put up signs.[Templer Road Will Never Be Demolished!]Ayo and Matilda were left dumbfounded by the scene.They had thought that offering enough money would persuade the residents to agree to the demolition, and they never expected this outcome.In Ayo's plan, once Templer Road was demolished, she intended to build a shrine there to worship Saffronesia's God of Medicine.Besides, choosing Templer Road was not just about seeking revenge on Chad.Ayo had strong connections in Saffronesia and knew a famous consultant from the Neuf Chrys Club.Before coming to Bloomington, Ayo was advised by the consultant that Lumigen Pharmaceutical could only establish itself in Hacniane by building a shrine on Templer Road.Both Ayo and Yumi were superstitious, so securing Templer Road was crucial.Ayo spoke sternly, saying, "Go back and find out who'
Yet, Zach never expected his father-in-law to suddenly call and challenge him, demanding that he stop the relocation of Temple Road.However, Zach did not agree, despite not knowing why Toby was opposed to it.Zach believed that developing Temple Road would be beneficial to Bloomington's prosperity, and no one would stop him!Tori could not help but sigh when he heard Zach's words. "Don't be so cocky. My father asked me to ask you something. Have you lost your mind to even touch Temple Road?!"Zach was puzzled. He did not understand Rustin's question."Tori, are you so jealous of me that you are using your father to put pressure on me? It is all pointless. I've already decided to demolish Temple Road!"Tori was already losing patience. It was only a joke. Temple Road would be demolished at will if it were any other city.However, Bloomington was a completely different story. Tori exclaimed angrily, "I don't have the time to joke with you. Here's a piece of advice. Stop Temple Ro
As the chaos of Temple Road broke out, Chad was at the Hall of Herbs, utterly unaware of what was happening.At the time, Chad was practicing alchemy in a secret chamber beneath the Hall of Herbs.He used meditation to unlock his body's potential, increasing the temperature just enough to refine the medicinal ingredients in the furnace.It was an extremely difficult task!After all, he could not raise his hands' temperature too much. Instead, he had to use his hands to sense the furnace and integrate it into his body for it to reach a specific high temperature.Chad's hands held the Divine Ware furnace, and smoke curled within it as the ingredients dissolved.Upon closer inspection, the furnace was already glowing red like a heated iron.However, there was no change outside of the furnace. There were even water droplets that had condensed on top.Chad had not performed alchemy in ten years, and he appeared to be struggling.Chad's body was also covered in layers of blackish-br
"Sir… Sir Lawson… Hello…"A drop of cold sweat slid down his cheek as he spoke.Zach never imagined that simply relocating Temple Road would rile up the great Sir Lawson.Zach's mind was blank. He did not hear Lawson's words very clearly. He only repeated after the man. "Yes… Yes… I understand, I know… I'll definitely do that…"After hanging up, Zach could not help but slam his fist on the table."Why did Matilda and that woman from Saffronesia want the land on Temple Road?! They've caused me so much trouble, damn it!"Zach, enraged, called Matilda.He vented his rage on Matilda, scolding her for an hour before finally calming down.Matilda did not dare to retort the entire time and ended up in tears at the end of the call.After hanging up, Matilda called Ayo to discuss finding a new location.However, Ayo insisted on Temple Road and assured Matilda she would handle it.In truth, Ayo was concerned as well, having received some calls.They were all from her Hacniane partner
The Hall of Herbs was home to six old men at the time—the Hart family's father and son duo, the Pulmano brothers from Tatum Supreme Group, Toby, and Darren, who had always stayed there.Miles was already in his 50s, but the King of the Entertainment Industry kept himself in good shape and looked to be in his 30s, so he could not be considered old.However, Esther was concerned that the Hall of Herbs was rapidly becoming a nursing home.When she heard the shouting outside, she got up and went to the door, saying, "Young man, what's your business with Chad?"Morgan bowed respectfully and said, "My mother has a strange illness, and she has seen various famous doctors for over two years, but she hasn't gotten any better. I wanted to ask Chad for help."Esther looked at Morgan's mother, who was thin and middle-aged.Morgan's mother was wrapped up tightly, as if she was afraid of the cold, even though it was not particularly cold."Come in for now!"Esther let them in without thinkin
As he spoke, the old man smiled at Chad and said, "The towering tree lives for thousands of years. So, when refining the Elixir of Life, using the wood element can help the pill achieve its highest grade!"Sure enough, the Journey through Mountains and Streams painting contained a Mystic Healing inheritance!The old man's words made Chad realize that his Mindfulness Breathing Meditation was of the wood element, best suited for creating the Elixir of Life!So, Chad was lucky enough to hit the jackpot and create the best Elixir of Life!Chad followed the old man and the boy through that painted world, temporarily forgetting about time.The old man showed the boy where to find various spiritual herbs in the mountains.He also showed the boy how to plant and cultivate them after harvesting.In the world of painting, a day seemed like a hundred years. Chad appeared to be completely immersed in the painting for what seemed like years.Chad accompanied the old man in the mountains, wh
"Morgan, what are you doing here?" Chad was surprised to see his high school friend in the Hall of Herbs.Morgan asked hesitantly, "Chad, I know you are skilled in medicine. Can you help my mother?""Oh, this young man and his mother have been here for a day. His mother's illness is complicated." Esther looked at Chad with concern as she explained Morgan's mother's condition."She was locked?" Chad looked at Morgan's mother in disbelief, completely shocked.Esther voiced her suspicions: "Yes! It is indeed a locking. I haven't seen one in more than 20 years."Morgan looked puzzled as he glanced at his mother and asked, "What is locking? Is it that serious?"Chad nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's incredibly serious. Locking is a rare and vicious technique that is extremely difficult to deal with."Archibald walked out of his room at that point, stunned, and said, "There are still people who know how to do locking nowadays?"Chad did not recognize Archibald. Who was that old man
It resulted in numerous accidents for Mystic Pavillion members in later years that they could not prevent.If Roggan was willing to submit to the Mystic Pavilion, he could use their members to protect themselves.However, Chad could not agree so easily, so he said, "Help me do three things. After you do that, Roggan will be a part of the Mystic Pavillion! The first is to unlock her."Archibald was overjoyed to hear that. He stood up immediately and exclaimed, "It's a deal!"Then, Archibald approached Morgan's mother and said, "Excuse me, I need to check what kind of ice lock you have been subjected to."Archibald grabbed her arm and pressed his right and left index fingers against it. Then, he moved toward the shoulder.At the same time, he said, "Unlocking and locking use specific circulatory points in a person's body. It is one of Roggan's eight skills.As Archibald's hand moved around Morgan's mother's limbs, his eyes widened dramatically."Now, I will unlock you—here!"As
