“We’re still at the clinic...” Xyla sobbed and said, “Grandpa intends to pack everything up tonight.”“Okay!” Charlie said immediately, “Wait for me at the clinic. I’ll go there now!”When Charlie drove and arrived at Anthony’s Serene World Clinic, the signboard of the clinic had been taken off and had been casually discarded to the side. There was also a signboard wrapped in red satin silk at the door, but it was impossible to see what was written on the signboard at the moment.When Charlie arrived at the Serene World Clinic, Anthony was packing up all kinds of medicinal herbs and materials from the medicine cabinet with Xyla and his worker’s help.Xyla saw Charlie coming in and shouted excitedly, “Master Wade!” After saying that, she ran toward Charlie, threw herself into Charlie’s arms, and started crying. Charlie quickly asked her, “Xyla, what exactly happened? Tell me everything.”Anthony also saw Charlie’s expression at this time. He was shocked and staggered over wit
Charlie did not expect that the reason Anthony wanted to leave Aurous Hill was because he had lost Serene World Clinic because he had lost a bet to someone. What’s more, he did not expect that the reason why Anthony had made the bet with the other party was to win a medicine cauldron for himself. He asked with some doubt, “Dr. Simmons, who is the person who made the bet with you?”“I don’t know either.” Anthony replied, “That man is quite wild. He only said that his last name is Howton and he is known as Master Howton.”“Master Howton?” Charlie frowned when he heard these two words. After Quinn had delivered the Healing Pill to her grandfather, Charlie had heard her mention this name once. According to Quinn, this person was a senior Taoist priest in the American Oskian circle and was known as Master Howton. He was very close to Charlie’s grandmother and he had even made a special trip to provide treatment for Charlie’s grandfather when he was critically ill. He had even had
Charlie asked again, “How did you choose the test subject at the time? Is there a possibility that this person arranged for a patient to come over in advance and secretly colluded with her before he then came looking for you to propose the method of competition to win you?” “Well...” Anthony pondered for a moment and murmured, “I don’t have any evidence to prove it, but I can’t rule out this possibility.”After saying that, Anthony said seriously, “But Master Wade, Taoism has always placed emphasis on cultivating one’s mind and nature, so Master Howton shouldn’t be so shameless, right?” Charlie asked him again, “If he’s really a person with a cultivated mind and nature, why would he come here to bet with others? It’s just like the monks in the temple and priests in the church. How could they really cultivate their mind and nature if they hang out with those rich and powerful people all day long?The reason why Charlie said this was because Quinn had mentioned that Master Howton h
Charlie knew that Master Howton was here this time for the Healing Pill. Since he had already found and approached Anthony, Charlie could not let him continue to stay in Aurous Hill regardless of whether he knew of his identity or not.Therefore, the best thing to do right now was to take the initiative. However, Charlie had also considered one thing, that was, whether Master Howton would have also met his parents as well since Master Howton was familiar with his grandmother. If Master Howton had met them before, he might be able to guess Charlie’s identity based on the similarity in Charlie and Curtis’s appearance. Charlie’s plan was to detain Master Howton directly without a doubt if he questioned his identity. He then said to Anthony, “Dr. Simmons, you and Xyla should go home first. Don’t worry about things here. I’ll be here on time in the morning tomorrow!”Anthony hesitated for a moment but still nodded in agreement and said respectfully, “Okay, Master Wade. I’ll come b
Charlie was somewhat impressed that a Taoist priest could possess the strength of an eight-star martial artist. At this moment, Master Howton felt a little annoyed when no one answered him after he spoke. He asked, “Where is Anthony Simmons?! He dares to keep Serene World Clinic’s signboard but he is hiding and does not dare to show his face?!”Charlie deliberately coughed twice, stretched his waist lazily, stood up, and said in dissatisfaction, “Why are you yelling so early in the morning? Is there something wrong with your brain? If there is something wrong with you, you should call for help and go to the emergency room at the hospital instead. We can’t help you here!” Master Howton looked at Charlie who had suddenly stood up, frowned, and asked, “Who are you?”Charlie was still worried that Master Howton might have seen his father before, so he deliberately asked, “Why? Haven’t you seen me before?”Master Howton stared at Charlie, then asked coldly, “Young lad, I didn’t see y
“Damn you!”Master Howton clenched his teeth in anger!He did not expect that this brat in front of him would be so rude to the point that it made people want to kill him!He was obviously the one who was sparing his life and letting him off the hook, but instead of being grateful and acknowledging it, Charlie was even saying such disrespectful words to him! If this could be tolerated, what could not be?!However, the more Charlie provoked him, the more he did not dare to make a move against Charlie. It was not because he was afraid of Charlie, but it was mainly because he was afraid of causing public security incidents or even a criminal case here. The police would be involved as well once that happened. Although he was an eight-star martial artist, he definitely did not dare to go against the police blatantly in a metropolis such as Aurous Hill.In his opinion, it was very easy for him to kill Charlie. After all, he would be able to beat Charlie’s brains out with just one pu
“My...” Master Howton’s fists were trembling with anger and his body was shaking uncontrollably like a Parkinson’s patient as he clenched his teeth and said, “My name is Caden Howton. Everyone in North America addresses me respectfully as Master Howton!”Charlie curled his lips, looked him up and down, then asked, “They refer to you as Master Howton?”Caden clenched his teeth and said, “That’s right! I’m Master Howton!”Charlie curled his lips and said, “Oh, everyone refers to me as Master Wade, but if you’re Master Howton, do you believe that you’re more powerful than me, then?”Caden thought that Charlie was deliberately mocking him, so he said angrily, “Young lad, you’re really eloquent, but I’m not in the mood to talk nonsense with you now! I came here today to look for Anthony Simmons. Where is he?! Ask him to come out and talk to me!”As soon as his words fell, Xyla ran in quickly. As she ran, she said to Charlie, “Master Wade, I’ve already done everything you asked me to
When Caden saw Charlie stretching out his hand to threaten to hit him, he really wanted to tear Charlie into pieces because he had never suffered such humiliation before in his life. However, when he thought of the important matters that he still had to deal with in Aurous Hill and how the police station was just across the street, he could only suppress the great anger and hatred that he felt at the moment. When Charlie saw his angry expression and how he looked like a pressure cooker that was about to explode, he sneered and asked, “What’s wrong? You don’t dare to take my pulse? Old man, I think you must have used some cheap tricks to win against Dr. Simmons yesterday! Otherwise, why wouldn’t you dare to take my pulse?” Charlie had originally suspected that Caden had set up a trap for Anthony, and he became even more confident of his suspicion after seeing that the other party was actually an eight-star martial artist. An eight-star martial artist must have spent most of his
