Matilda was shocked to see Arthur and stuttered, "You are Arthur Hughes...the Miracle Doctor..."

"There's no need to say it out loud. You already know my identity. That's just a title assigned to me by the outside world!"

Arthur interrupted Matilda and redirected the conversation to her divorce from Chad.

"I heard from Chad that you divorced him because you thought he was just sitting at home all day and not making money?"

Matilda nodded before shaking her head, saying earnestly, "Mr. Hughes, this is a private matter between Chad and myself. Please don't talk about it."

Arthur shook his head and smiled wryly. "You simply don't know Chad well enough. He has been a good kid since he was little. He began studying medicine with his father at the age of three and traveled with him to see various famous masters after the age of seven. As a teenager, he was already treating patients privately."

Matilda frowned and interrupted Arthur, asking, "Mr. Hughes, why are you defending Chad? I wa

    Zach inhaled sharply as he noticed that piece of wood's unique texture and pattern.He had intended to demolish Temple Road before that, but thankfully, he was stopped.Otherwise, just the door to the Hall of Herbs would have caused him a great deal of trouble.However, Esther scoffed, "These doors aren't even the most expensive ones. You should see the ones in Patriot Hall. Those doors are truly priceless; they are more than ten times the price!"Zach was dumbfounded!Even though he had no idea whether it was true, the Hall of Herbs was right in front of him at that moment. He was more open to believing it than not.Esther mocked Zach, who was sweating profusely, saying, "Mayor, you sent people here to demolish the place during the day, promising to pay 3,000 dollars per square meter. Big deal! Let me be honest—even five times the amount would not be enough to demolish Temple Road!"Zach wiped his sweat and said, "Yes! Yes!"Cultural relics were always valuable, and Temple Roa

    Celine stumbled back after receiving a slap. Even though it was not particularly heavy, it still hurt a lot.Meanwhile, Esther's face darkened as she angrily asked, "Where did this shrew come from? How dare you start trouble in the Hall of Herbs?! Get out of here!"Celine was not one to accept defeat. She was about to fight back when she was slapped again.She was angry. She screamed, "Logan, are you a man? Can't you see your wife getting hit?""I'm coming! I'm coming! Don't do anything! We can talk if there's any problem!"Logan had gone to park his car and was hurrying over.When he saw the handprint on Celine's face, he became enraged as well. He shouted, "What's going on? Why did you hit her?!"Esther was already furious because the Hall of Herbs' door had been smashed the day before. She was in a terrible mood."You're trespassing into private property. Even if I beat you to death, I wouldn't have to go to jail. Get lost!"However, Celine felt empowered by that, so she sa

    "My daughter is Matilda from Bellenuite, and she makes the decisions in Bloomington. You can take the door as long as you have the money. Nobody would dare to stop you."However, Herman looked at Toby and asked, "Toby, who should I believe?"Toby smiled and replied, "Me, of course. Can't you see that this woman has a mental illness?"Herman had no idea what was happening, but when he remembered it was a medicine shop, he had a moment of clarity."Oh, she's crazy. No wonder she agreed to sell it for seven million. If it were a Golden Phoebe Wood door, it would likely fetch more than 14 million at auction, even a destroyed one.Fourteen million!Logan was dumbfounded, and Celine was going crazy.She regretted not taking that shop the moment Chad divorced Matilda.So she rushed over to Chad, grabbed his collar, and yelled, "You said you would leave the family with nothing. This property should belong to us. Transfer it to us right away!"Such an absurd request dumbfounded everyon

    As everyone entered the shop, they noticed a golden box exposed in the wooden door panel.The box was not very big—just enough to fit into the panel.All the wooden boards on the door were solid except for one—it was hollow.Chad immediately took the box out. When he felt the weight, he realized it was made of pure gold."The sixth year of the Xander reign of the Great Mornex Dynasty…"After reading those words, Chad grabbed the box and returned to the backyard.Herman ran forward and asked, "Dr. Jennings, may I look at that?"Toby helplessly yanked Herman back. "Herman, don't be rash. You will be able to see it again as long as Dr. Jennings keeps it."Herman was hesitant, but he said, "I looked at the wooden door just now. I believe it is over a hundred years old."Toby widened his eyes and asked, "How many years ago was it made?"Herman said gravely, "At least four to five hundred years old. It may even be older."That completely shocked both Toby and Esther."That's impo

    "Manic depressive disorder, delusional disorder, and a strong tendency for violence—pay special attention to her. If it doesn't work, we will try electroconvulsive therapy tonight!"Then, the female doctor rose to leave. Celine had utterly calmed down after the injection.On the other hand, Logan was much smarter. He did not deny that he had a mental illness but instead cooperated with the doctor to complete the admission procedures honestly.Logan mentioned Matilda's number when filling out the contact information for family members. He said, "Please, Doctor, tell my daughter I'm here and have her come see me."Those words prompted the doctor to look at him sympathetically."I'm guessing your daughter is already married! She must not have returned for many years."Logan sighed and replied sadly, "Yes! Otherwise, I wouldn't have had to act crazy with my wife and make such a scene to get her to come see us."The doctor's expression immediately changed. He said in astonishment, "Y

    As night fell, Celine and Logan's miserable screams could be heard from the electroconvulsive therapy room at the Third People's Hospital in Bloomington. Meanwhile, Matilda continued to promote the demolition of Temple Road.Meanwhile, Chad left his room after he stored the golden box away.What was inside that box?Chad knew when he realized it was from the sixth year of Xander's reign from the Great Mornex Dynasty.According to rumors, after Emperor Tyrel of the Great Mornex Dynasty ascended to the throne, he directed the Prime Minister to compile the Tyrel Encyclopedia, an unprecedented masterpiece.It was an unparalleled work that included the dynasty's technical literature at the time, such as astronomy, geography, divination, religion, agriculture, and animal husbandry. It eventually amounted to 11,095 columns, totaling 370 million characters, and was hailed as a book that combined ancient and modern knowledge. It was certain to benefit future generations.However, due to i

    The organizer, Adam, used to be their high school class president. He seemed ecstatic when he saw Chad."Chad, you haven't attended any high school reunions since you went to college!"The other classmates were also very enthusiastic. They came over to greet Chad one after another."Chad, it has been such a long time. Have you found your sister?""Chad, you divorced Matilda, right? Have you considered finding someone new from your former classmates?""That's true! Even if the beauties in our class aren't as rich as Matilda, they're so stunning!" someone said.Chad simply nodded and smiled as he listened to his classmates' banter. Eventually, he decided to sit beside Morgan.That action drew ridicule from everyone.Even Adam could not help but mock him. "It looks like the two of you are inseparable, huh?"Chad had no idea what was happening until a beautiful woman appeared.When Chad saw her, he suddenly realized everything.That beautiful woman was Florence, who had dated Mo

    "Mr. Chase?"Adam burst out laughing when he heard how Ayo addressed Morgan.Everyone else in the room burst out laughing, looking at Morgan with mocking eyes.Adam mocked Morgan, saying, "Are you worthy of that title? Do you think you're special because you act like this? You even found a beautiful woman to act like a foreigner. I'm very impressed by your audacity.""Yeah! Honestly, the disguise is quite good, but we just don't believe it!" another person said.Florence sneered, "I hadn't expected you to be so vain. Did you create this ruse after watching too many videos?"At that point, someone else said, "He must've watched way too many videos. Even Chad's previous line must have come from one!"Ayo was bewildered by what was happening around her.However, she was there to issue an ultimatum.If Morgan and his mother did not cooperate with her, Ayo would have to take drastic measures.Chad had simply stated what he did so that Morgan would not leave in such humiliation.

    As Chad sat in meditation on Decaying Peaks, a faint, glowing white immortal crown slowly appeared behind his head. When that immortal crown manifested, a quake occurred everywhere outside Mount Causabour. The frequency of those tremors was extremely high, and everyone could clearly feel them. The vast area they covered included the entire Hacniane. It was as if some ancient seal in the vast sky had been triggered.Chad opened his eyes in shock amid his breakthrough, realizing that the impending heavenly punishment seemed to be directed at him and the millions of mystical beings beneath Mount Causabour.Suddenly, a thunderous voice erupted in the sky, as loud as a bolt of lightning:"Cut off the road to the heavens, seal the underworld; a red banner halts a million immortals, and a red star exterminates ghosts and demons!"Sever Yggdrasil, raise the grand array; a handful of Evergrow blocks the celestial river, and the vast multiverse bows to humanity!"By decree, this is a real

    Sir Holt anxiously looked up at the sky as the tribulation clouds suddenly began to churn violently.Crack! Crack! Crack!At that moment, the first bolt of heavenly punishment finally struck.However, that bolt of divine lightning fell upon the mirage of the Mystic Archive, where it disappeared without a trace. The entire Mount Causabour shook a few times, and everyone could feel a soothing sensation within the mountain.Anyone who felt this would experience a surge of confidence deep within, and any discomfort they felt in their bodies seemed to improve significantly.On Decaying Peaks, that sensation was even more pronounced, and more and more people began to manifest the immortal crown behind their heads. In just a few minutes, nearly everyone on Decaying Peaks, hundreds of people in total, had an immortal crown appear behind them.That included Flynn and Harvey, who were sitting on the outskirts of Decaying Peaks. They, too, had immortal crowns appear behind their heads.How

    Sir Holt and Zayan looked up at the sky with expressionless faces, though their hearts were in turmoil. Within the rolling clouds, faint traces of multicolored light shimmered.As time passed, the colorful lights appeared more frequently, as if gradually consuming the clouds."Such intense ascension light—there must be tens of thousands ascending!""There are probably more. The latest statistics show that 264,777 people have entered Mount Causabour!""Over 260,000? How did so many people get here?"Zayan looked at Sir Holt in shock, and Sir Holt turned his gaze toward the winding mountain road leading into the area."There are still many more people outside trying to get in, but the place is already so crowded that they can't fit."Zayan looked with concern toward the entrance to the mountain. "Won't those stuck on the road cause a disturbance?""They won't!" Sir Holt said with certainty. "Unless they're fools, they've probably already started meditating where they are. Even if

    Among the 250,000 people, quite a few were not actually autistic patients. After sleeping for two full days, Chad woke up and realized that possibility. He carefully considered the potential issues that might arise during the process and decided to issue an announcement."The treatment will begin shortly. Non-autistic patients are advised to leave the Mount Causabour area to avoid unnecessary complications."That announcement was broadcast three times through loudspeakers positioned throughout Mount Causabour. Finally, the loudspeaker voice declared, "The treatment will officially begin in one hour!"At the same time, Chad made his way to the Decaying Peaks, the summit of Mount Causabour, where an over-century-old pavilion stood.Entering the pavilion, Chad sat down in a meditative position. Soon, he noticed a dense crowd gathering around the pavilion, all sitting in meditation poses around him.As Chad glanced over those people, he recognized several familiar faces. The people ar

    Mount Causabour Medical Center, built halfway up Mount Causabour, was a sizable palace-style complex with three courtyards. The center was constructed along the mountain's slope, extending all the way to the base of the Decaying Peaks. Flynn and Harvey were placed in the innermost courtyard, suggesting that their grandfather, Fenton Cooper, likely knew some inside information but had not shared it with his grandsons.On that day, the Hacniane Cabinet issued several announcements. First, they created separate legislation for ability users and cultivators to regulate their powers. Second, they planned to designate special zones in each city for ability users and Mystics, separating them from ordinary people. Lastly, they urgently introduced the Sixteen Temporary Rules for Ability Users and Mystic Practitioners to regulate their behavior.Those announcements seemed like they were aimed at restricting ability users, but in reality, they were meant to reassure ordinary people, ensurin

    A massive leap in the realm could bring unimaginable fortune to the dragon vein, potentially altering Hacniane's fate.That was also Chad's grand gift to the two elders, using the sudden surge in the dragon vein's power to help Hacniane avoid the impending catastrophe triggered by the nuclear explosion of the firmament.Earlier that day, through Chad's Clairvoyant Eye, he saw Kennington shrouded in a faint gray-black mist. Chad did not know what it was but felt it resembled Evergrow, yet not quite the same.However, Chad was certain that accidents would surely happen if ordinary people were exposed to it in large quantities. As a Mystic, he could already feel its effects on his body.At that moment, Sir Holt got into the car, looking at Chad with a solemn expression. "Kid, give me the bottom line!"After careful consideration, Chad laid out his thoughts. Upon hearing them, Sir Holt began to tremble. According to Chad, he would need to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to ensure the

    Having a Mystic Archive and unlocking a Mystic Archive were two different matters. Only a handful of people were recorded to have a Mystic Archive throughout history. There were only two earliest verifiable individuals with documented works still in existence.The first was Hugo Gerant, a renowned physician from an ancient empire, a practitioner of Mystic Therapeutics, and an alchemist. His surviving medical works include The Hundred Letters, Gerant's Emergency Treatments, and the famous Embracing Simplicity.After his death, several notable physicians throughout history have inadvertently inherited his Mystic Archive, but none have fully inherited it. It was said that Mystics knew the method to obtain Gerant's Mystic Archive a thousand years ago, but that knowledge had since been lost.The second individual is Damian Lotin, a figure from another ancient dynasty. He left behind many works, including one titled The Whisper of the Blue Plant.Aside from them, other people who possess

    Chad gave them a cold smile. "Extract the immortal bone to cure the illness.""No! Absolutely not! I won't allow it!""Me neither. There's no way we can let that happen!"The entire room erupted into panic. Some even tried to attack Chad, but they were quickly subdued.Chad looked at them and said, "Then tell me the truth.""I'll speak! I failed my tribulation and fell from the celestial realm. I used to have nine crowns, but now I'm down to five...""And me! I also fell from the celestial realm after failing my tribulation. Now I only have three crowns...""I disguised myself as one of the wounded soldiers and was brought here. After losing all my cultivation, I've since regained two crowns!""I was brought back from the firmament by my husband. After we arrived here, I lost all my cultivation and never practiced again. We had a child later, and he was perfectly normal, but I never expected my grandson to..."As those people spoke, Zayan and Sir Holt were stunned! Those peopl

    "You know the cause of the illness?"Zayan was shocked, almost in disbelief."Do you realize this child is the same age as you? Even your master examined him but couldn't find the cause!"Chad nodded and said, "But I do know, and I have a bold theory—that the cause of autism in all these children might be the same..."As he spoke, some thoughts suddenly flashed through Chad's mind, shocking even him, leading him to say, "And I suspect this might be related to the increasing number of ability users and cultivators over the past century!""Really?!"Zayan grabbed Chad's arm, hardly believing what he was hearing.However, Chad spoke with firm conviction, "It's very likely true, but I need to see more children with autism.""Wait here; I'll make arrangements right away!"Soon, Chad and his group arrived at the largest hospital in Kennington, the Ninth Military District Hospital, and Xyder was also brought along.
