At that moment, a sudden burst of light flickered within the room, immediately followed by a long, resonating sound.
As the door creaked open, Stephen said slowly, “You may all cin now. Mr. Pruitt has already awakened...” Serena and Clifford quickly rushed in when they heard that.
“Master!” The two individuals lay at the head of the bed, crying with intense emotion.
At that moment, Trystan Pruitt’'s complexion was glowing, even his white hair had turned black, as if he had suddenly becmany years younger.
Just moments ago, he was an elderly man with white hair, on the brink of death. But in an instant, he had transformed into this state.

“Master...” Serena and Clifford were still crying.
Trystan slightly furrowed his brows, then, as if recalling something, he asked the two, “Where are the fellow disciples who went with you to dig up the Demonia Dragon Ginseng?” Trystan’s words made the two people cry even more heartbrokenly.
At that moment, the skinny member of Soul Demon Sect on the side said, “Master, all the other brothers have been sucked into Demon Devouring Cave. Only Serena and Clifford have returned. Moreover, they were pursued and attacked on the way, and their Demonia Dragon Ginseng was almost stolen!” “What happened?” Trystan asked, momentarily taken aback.
“Master, more than a dozen of our fellow apprentices wegdrawn into Demon Devouring Cave, and they never cout again. After | had dug up the Demonia Dragon Ginseng with Clifford, we were suddenly pursued by a few individuals who appeared out of nowhere. They were after our Demonia Dragon Ginseng. Moreover, these people all possessed Soulbinding Beads. The techniques Clifford and | practiced were simply ineffective against them. Soulbinding Beads belong to our Soul Demon Sect. There must have been a traitor within our ranks. The matter of excavating the Demonia Dragon Ginseng was known to very few, yet those individuals were aware of it. Someone must have leaked the information!” Serena said through her tears.
Trystan was instantly seething with rage when he heard that.
“Issue an order to all members of Soul Demon Sect. No one is permitted to take a single step out of the sect.
Anyone who disobeys will be treated as a traitor and dealt with accordingly. am determined to find out who betrayed our sect. | will tear him to a thousand pieces!” Trystan roared in fury.
“Mr. Pruitt, you've just recovered. It’s best to keep your anger at bay. It's not good for your health. Since you're all right now, Mr. Pruitt, it’s tforto leave!” Dr. Livingstone was persuading Trystan, and he then prepared to turn around and leave.
“Dr. Livingstone, | truly can’t thank you enough. My Soul Demon Sect is indebted to you and we have no means to repay you. Rest assured, if there's ever a twhen you need my assistance, Soul Demon Sect will not hesitate to help.” Trystan hastily rose to his feet, expressing his profound gratitude toward Stephen.
“Mr. Pruitt, you're being too polite. As an alchemist, it’s only right forto treat and save people. There's no need for such formality. If you experience any discomfort later on, feel free to cfind me...” Stephen said very politely.
“Of course!” Trystan personally escorted Stephen out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared stared at Stephen, a hint of suspicion in his eyes, for he had sensed a faint aura of the Demonia Dragon Ginseng emanating from Stephen.
Although Stephen tried his utmost to conceal the aura of the Demonia Dragon Ginseng, Jared still managed to detect it.
There was also something weird about Trystan, who was full of energy.
Although it appeared that Trystan had becmuch more robust, with his hair even turning black, the aura of vitality within Trystan was extremely scarce.
Instead, it was in his chest where a buildup of death energy resided. It was estimated that it wouldn't take long for this death energy to spread, and then Trystan would inevitably meet his end.
Trystan could act the way he was acting because it seemed as if he was experiencing a terminal lucidity.
As it turned out, Stephen had employed his unique methods, stimulating the last vestiges of the aura of vitality within Trystan’s body. This made Trystan appear as though he had recovered.
