“Really? Then how did you manage to meet the Greene Family?” Madison smiled coldly.

“Elder Greene had invited you? Do you think anyone could just attend their feast? And you promised to bring this many people along? Could you not have made a more believable lie? Will you hire someone else to pretend as Elder Greene when the time comes? I know you have been dealing with some issues, but I don’t want you to change other people’s opinions about you this way.” Madison spoke in a disappointed tone.

“I didn’t hire someone to do an act.” Jason looked at Madison and frowned. “And I have never felt bad when I’m beside you. I do not care what they think of me. What I care about is what you think of me. If you don’t believe me, go ask them yourself.” Jason handed the business card over to Madison.

Looking at Madison’s stunning face, his eyes showed a glimpse of gentleness. “I did not amount to anything back then and always caused you trouble. Now, I’m afraid that you would think that I’m too outstanding.” Jason spoke calmly.

“I’m going to sleep.” Jason walked towards his room after ending the conversation.

“Too outstanding?” Madison muttered while looking at Jason from behind. Meanwhile, her eyes had filled with indescribable emotions.

She found out that Jason had changed. He was no longer the hopelessly incapable person he was before. Looking at his physical stance from behind, it seems to be filled with an unconcealable pride. It was also the first time Madison realized how important she was to Jason. All of the hardships he had suffered were for her.

The next morning, Jason sent Madison to work as usual. She looked at him and asked, “Jason, had you thought about doing something?”

Madison had done a lot of thinking last night. She thought it did not matter if what happened yesterday was true or false; she still wanted him to do well as he was her husband after all. Although she felt no romantic feelings towards him, they were still a couple. It was difficult to explain but the attached feelings within this relationship could never be described clearly with words.

Jason recalled that this was the first time Madison had asked him about it in the last two years. He was given opportunities before, but he was naive back then. He had failed every task because he was either fooled or held unrealistic expectations in managing his task. This was chiefly why Madison was disappointed in him and why the Dale family held him in low regard.

“If it’s possible, open a medical center for me!” Jason looked at Madison and calmly stated.

“Chinese medical center.” He looked at her and said.

“Chinese medicine? Do you know you are still an unrealistic person?” She frowned after hearing the request.

Jason smiled helplessly. He realized that his fiance had deep-rooted misconceptions about his abilities. If he were not considered capable, there would not be a single person in this world that could be.

“I know a little. You have a beauty salon; your line of work is considered a branch of Chinese medicine. I wanted to help you, so I’ve studied. I could formulate recipes for legendary beauty products for you.” Jason smiled.

He could not show a hint of irritation when dealing with her.

“Enough, I’m going to work,” Madison spoke calmly. She believed that Jason was hardworking, but he was not a capable person.

Jason shrugged as he looked at Madison leaving. ‘She still won’t believe it after all.’

Jason did not return home straight away; instead, he roamed around the area. He must find a suitable location if he were to open a medical center. Sadly, he could not find a suitable location after roaming around for a long while.

Just as he was mulling over the fact silently, a loud wail was heard. He could hear the hidden desperation within the voice. “Charlatan! You killed my husband! Explain yourself, or I will die here!”

    Jason sought after the source of the commotion. As he approached, he saw a medical center named Prosperity Hall. In front was a middle-aged woman, wearing mourning attire, knelt in front of a man that was laid down on top of a stretcher. The man looked sickly ill and was obviously in a near-death state.“Mrs. Johnson, I would admit to mistreating him if I had done so, but I haven’t, so there is no need to do this. You can do whatever you want, even if you wanted to take my life.” An elderly man stood in front of the middle-aged woman and spoke softly. His tone was calm, but it carried a hint of resignation.“Please leave the area. There’s nothing to see here. I will admit my faults if I have done any. I would not bully anyone,” Looking at the spectating crowd, the elder said calmly. He had been practicing medicine in the area for decades and was well known in that area. The spectators thought someone was causing issues and wanted to help, but they did not imagine that the elder had c

    The elderly healer looked at his granddaughter’s concerned stare, and he nodded with a bitter smile on his face.“Bring the man inside first. There’s no need to rush your issue.” Jason spoke calmly.Inside Prosperity Hall, Jason examined the building’s internal design. He lightly nodded and said, “The location was not that good, but the design of the building is nice enough.”The young lady looked angry as she heard what he said. She thought Jason was picky even after being gifted a medical center. However, she had not reacted since she was more concerned about her grandfather’s issue.”“Are there golden needles?” Jason asked the old man after examining.“Yes.” The elderly healer nodded. He then retrieved the golden acupuncture needles for Jason. He felt slightly embarrassed as he looked at the pristine-looking golden needles. He then spoke with an embarrassed tone, “My abilities are lacking. I have only used the silver needles.”Jason lightly smirked and walked towards the dying

    “I suppose I had found the silver lining.” After Jason had performed acupuncture on the elderly healer, he could not help but let out a gleeful cheer.“Not exactly, you paid for it with the medical center.” Jason laughed.“Grandpa, you’ve gotten better?” The young lady asked enthusiastically.“Not yet, but it's almost there.” The elderly healer smiled. He then bowed towards Jason as a sign of respect. “Thank you, good sir, for saving me.”“Don’t worry about it. I saved your life in exchange for the Prosperity Hall. It should be a fair exchange.” Jason lightly smirked. Jason believed that the old man was a kind person at heart. At the very least, he would not abuse his position as a medical healer, nor did he deflect his responsibility. This is the reason why Jason saved his life. Although the Prosperity Hall was taken as the price of treatment, it was better for them not to owe anything to each other.“You’re not afraid that we will renege our promise?” The young lady spoke coyly.

    Jason really did not know if he felt touched about her consideration or angered because she still distrusted him. Regardless, the reason behind her actions was due to Jason’s past history. The impression that he had left on others was not something that can be changed easily. He rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly.The next day, he directly made his way towards the Prosperity Hall. The grandparent and child had been waiting there for a while and had the contract already drafted before Jason arrived.“Good sir, I have a request. I hope that you will accept it,” The elderly healer looked at Jason and said with a melancholy voice after the procedures were made.“Go ahead.” Jason nodded, gesturing to him to continue.“Could you keep ‘Prosperity Hall’ as its name?” His face reddened as he made the request.“No way.” Jason shook his head after hearing it. His response was full of conviction.“I suppose I was rash. It would cause you inconvenience after I had trashed the reputation of

    It took some effort for the young lady to catch the book. She spoke with pride, as she looked at the book in her hands. “I’ve already memorized the book. If you don’t believe me, you can test me.” She then spoke coyly.Jason’s eyes lit up as he heard what she said as if it had garnered his interest. He randomly chose a few medical herbs from the book and realized the kid had perfectly recited the corresponding details.“Not bad; now try making a few prescriptions from it.” He spoke calmly towards the young lady.The young lady had made five medical prescriptions using the herbs Jason mentioned as the recipe, and this had improved his impression of her.“Grandpa always said that I have exceptional talent.” The young lady, Icy White, spoke with a satisfied tone as she looked at Jason with pride. She then thought, ‘You will definitely be willing to teach me, as I have incredibly talented.’“Out of five prescriptions, you’ve got three wrong. Also, you could’ve made seventeen prescript

    Due to the previous incident, he had the remainder of his day to relax. There were occasionally people that were here to fetch medicine, and they were managed by Icy herself. However, Jason had not sat idly during the evening; instead, he found himself a rosewood plank. He inscribed it after coloring it.Icy, who had witnessed the entire process, was stunned as she saw him inscribing strong-looking characters onto the plank with his bare fingers. That made her look at him as if he was a monster. She did not know how he managed to do that with his bare fingers if the material was made of hardwood.“What?” She looked at Jason and lightly smacked the wooden board, and found it to be authentic. As she recalled what she said to him prior, her face reddened. ’Show him what’s good? I suppose I was asking to be killed instead. This fellow is definitely not human. How could a human do something like this?’“Not bad.” Jason nodded as he oriented the wooden board properly. Luckily, he had not

    Icy gritted her teeth as anger filled her eyes. She realized something right before she spoke; she clenched her teeth and walked towards Jason, massaging his shoulders. At the same time, a woman wearing a surgical mask stood outdoors. She was furious upon witnessing the scene.“B*stard, not only have you wasted my sister's money. You’d even dare to woo another woman? Jason, just you wait!” That person was Miranda. She had been investigating what Jason was really up to, ever since she overheard the conversation between Jason and Madison.She had not imagined that he had actually opened a medical center of his own, despite his lack of ability. Moreover, he was accompanied by a fascinatingly stunning young lady. She thought that he had been spending the Dale Family’s money and did not deserve to have all this going for him.“Average strength, you still need more practice.” Jason had not discovered Miranda. As the surroundings were filled with people, he could not notice anything precis

    “Too arrogant?” The middle-aged man could not help but chuckled as he never knew of a doctor that would speak like this.‘Ha.’ Icy felt secretly glad as she watched this. Although she had never doubted Jason’s ability in Chinese medicine, it was apparent that he was too arrogant. It is obvious that the person would not believe him as he was too young. ‘So what if you are the greatest healer? You are terrible at social situations.’“Pour us some tea,” Jason spoke calmly while looking at Icy.“Okay.” She nodded lightly, then turned around and left.Jason looked at the middle-aged man as he was trying to get up and smirked lightly. He calmly looked at the man and said, “We’re all men. I know it’s embarrassing to talk about your issue.” It took a while for him to get a customer; thus, Jason would not let him leave that easily. The medical center had not served a single customer since it was transferred to him two days ago.The middle-aged man, that was about to leave, sat down once ag

    "Then please kill me!" Looking at Jason's cold eyes, Ava said softly.There was no need to explain the past of the two. Over the years, Ava's loyalty to him was still vivid in his mind. Only Ava was the most loyal person in the world for him. Even if the world betrayed Jason, Ava would not betray him. Jason had no doubt about this.Looking at Ava's calm face, Jason could not help but smile coldly."You want to die? It's not that easy. Since you like to be immortal, I'll give you a hand." Jason chuckled. In the unbelievable eyes of Ava, the bloodline power of the survivors of the Inuit, which had not yet taken shape, suddenly took shape with the help of Jason's Genuine Qi. Then, a blood light was directly injected into Ava's body by Jason."So what if you get what you want now?""Stay together forever? That's just what you Ava think.""I don't want you to live forever, only because you don't understand the suffering of being immortal. Next, you can experience the loneliness of end

    In addition to Charles, there were Ava and the people of the Heaven's Gate who came with her. Ava did not bow her head, but just looked at Jason quietly. Jason did not look at Ava from beginning to end. He only said, "Go to hell!" As soon as he finished, the people of Heaven's Gate who followed Ava disappeared like a breeze in the world, leaving no trace.At this time, a figure flew over. It was Little Apple. When he saw the situation here, his body couldn't help but tremble. At the same time, there were also the Guardian, Austin, Niall, and the other forces in the martial arts world that had received orders from Jason.Right now, Charles was kneeling on the ground, trembling.Ava looked at Jason quietly, without greeting or kneeling. Even though all the people in the Heaven's Gate were killed by Jason, Ava was still calm."Since you are still loyal, I won't kill you." Jason snorted, looking at Charles, who was kneeling on the ground. A sword Qi burst out and a painful cry followed

    Under the cold gaze of her master, Little Alice nodded gently. She was very curious about the reason why her master had been so irritable. Almost the whole world was looking for her senior sister, but her master never said why.However, in Little Alice's opinion, even if her senior sister made a huge mistake, her master would not hurt her."Senior Sister took me to the depths of the mountain once and said that it would be the way for her and Master to retreat. I think she should go there. Of course, this is just my guess.""Master, no matter what mistake Senior Sister has made, I hope that you can show mercy and not hurt Senior Sister too much." Little Alice pleaded for Ava softly.From the furious look on Jason's face, she could guess that her senior sister had made a big mistake that was difficult to reverse. Otherwise, her master would not have been so angry, nor would he have made such a big fuss."It's good that you don't learn from her in the future." Looking at Little Alice

    Charles looked at the crazy Ava and shook his head with a smile. It turned out that this junior sister was really crazy. It was ridiculous that he joined her.An indescribable fear arose in Charles's heart. He did not know how to face his master next.It was not that he did not know about the relationship between the blind woman and his master. He even knew it better than many people. After all, when the Inuit appeared, he was already in this world.In the final battle against the Inuit, Charles was the witness. On that day, his master almost died. It was that blind woman who gouged out her own eyes and used her strongest mental power to save his master back at the critical moment.After that, Little Apple acknowledged that woman as his godmother. Both he and Ava should treat her as a senior.Charles knew that he didn’t have a sense of what was appropriate. It didn’t matter to him how Ava dealt with the survivors of the Inuit, but Ava should not have killed the blind woman.He

    So at this moment, she only had one belief that she must succeed. Before her master found her, she must succeed.The clan leader of the Inuit glanced at Ava. "Leave behind a bloodline for my Inuit," The clan leader of the Inuit said softly."Okay." Ava nodded gently.She didn't care about the realm. She only cared about immortality.He needed someone to accompany him in the long and lonely years. She always felt that no woman in this world was worthy of her master, but if she was immortal, she felt that she was barely worthy."Get up, don't complain here. You are helping me. If one day Master finds out, I will naturally bear all the sins." Ava said, looking at Charles"You're a crazy woman." Charles said very seriously, looking at Ava."That's right. Many years ago, I went crazy. The moment I established the Heaven's Gate and the Ice Palace, I was actually crazy. I have been trying every possible way to maintain my appearance and have been imagining that I can stay and live with

    Jason appeared at the former Human Emperor's Cemetery, which used to be the Inuit's station. Jason looked around only to find that there was no one. Obviously, someone had come here, and there were a lot of people, but now there was no one left.After searching all over, Jason failed to find any trace. Although he had reached the top level, it was still difficult for him to trace the past and the future.After searching outside the Human Emperor's Cemetery for two days, Jason found nothing.In desperation, Jason once again called on the whole world. The martial arts world, which had calmed down, was in turmoil. No matter when, as long as he was there, there would be no new master in the martial arts world.The Excalibur Family, Babylon and Snow Summit, as well as Dorian, Niall, the Guardians, and Madam Blossom, all arrived. Jason had also sent an order to people in Heaven’s Gate, but none appeared, which made Jason's heart sink, and at the same time, there was an unspeakable ange

    After seeing that old man, Jason most likely knew that there shouldn't be any extraordinary secrets in this world or any formidable figure. He most likely had a guess, but he didn't want to think about it or face it.At this time, a figure rushed over. It was the Shadow following the blind woman. At this moment, he was in a panic and did not even bother to greet him.The Shadow knelt on the ground with a thud. Jason’s expression changed slightly, and after Little Apple it, his face turned pale with fright."My lord, my master died." The Shadow, kneeling on the ground, said in a crying voice.Jason's expression changed dramatically. "Really?" Although there was a trace of expectation in his heart, Jason seemed to have confirmed the authenticity of this matter. Shadow's loyalty to the blind woman was unquestionable. If there was still a force in the martial arts world that Jason couldn't mobilize, it was only the group of the Shadows. Their loyalty to the blind woman had been deeply

    His mother-in-law just looked at Jason like this and Jason didn't know whether she felt guilty or asked for his forgiveness. However, at the moment before she died, he didn't say anything or do anything, but gave people a lot of imagination.Madison covered her mouth tightly to prevent herself from crying out. His father-in-law staggered to the bed. His mother-in-law widened her eyes and opened her mouth. In the end, she tilted her head and died.There was a burst of crying. Miranda was the first to cry. Little Apple's eyes were red, but he looked outside. It was rare for a man to cry like a woman in his life.On the other hand, Little Orange, who obviously could not get close to her grandmother, was the most heartbroken one.At the end of the day, she was soft-hearted. When her grandmother was alive, she always thought of her bad side. But now that her mother was dead, she cared more about her good side.The funeral was personally handled by Jason. Since his mother-in-law didn’t

    He was one of the few people who knew the truth, so he naturally knew where the pain of Jason came from.At this moment, he actually felt an inexplicable heartache for Jason. He felt sorry for both his father and his mother.Little Apple, who rarely shed tears after growing up, couldn't help but blush at this moment. Little Orange appeared beside her brother and asked softly, "Are you still crying?""No." Little Apple shook his head and said."Did the sand enter your eyes?" Little Orange asked with a smile.Little Apple glared at Little Orange and turned to leave. The relationship between the brother and sister had always been good. Of course, since childhood, Little Apple had always been the one who had been bullied. It was only recently that he stood up for himself, mostly because Little Orange had lost her favor.Speaking of which, Little Apple had been suppressed by Jason all the time. In fact, the chief culprit was this younger sister. It was just that this younger sister wa
