NovelEnglishJust as Stephen was preparing to leave, Jared suddenly said, “Wait...” Everyone was taken aback, then their gaze shifted onto Jared. Trystan slightly furrowed his brows and asked, “Clifford, who is this person?” Upon a single glance, Trystan recognized that Jared was not a member of Soul Demon Sect.
“Master, this gentleman, Mr. Chadwick, is the savior of Serena and me. We were ambushed on our journey, and he was the one who rescued us. When | was injured, it was Mr. Chadwick who treated me. He is also an alchemist,” Clifford hastily explained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing that Jared was an alchemist, and moreover, the savior of Serena and Clifford, Trystan becextremely courteous.
“Mr. Chadwick, I really can’t thank you enough. Is there something you need?” Trystan asked Jared.
The expression on Stephen’s face noticeably darkened when he heard that Jared was an alchemist.
With a serious expression, Jared said to Trystan, “Mr. Pruitt, in reality, your health has not improved, nor have you been suffering from any illness. It seems that your life is nearing its end. You are on the brink of death. As for this so-called Dr. Livingstone, he did not administer the Demonia Dragon Ginseng to you. He merely ignited the little life force you had left within you. The reason you're able to move freely now, and even your hair has turned black, is because you've been rapidly burning through your life force. If this continues, I'm afraid you won't survive more than three days!” The extremely thin member of Soul Demon Sect yelled at Jared, “What did you say? Are you cursing my master to die?” Trystan also furrowed his brows, then turned his gaze toward Stephen.
Upon seeing Trystan look his way, Stephen felt a surge of panic. He immediately turned to Jared and bellowed, “What nonsense are you spouting? I've dedicated my iE x | medicine. Everyone in the depths of Demonia Mountain knows me! How dare you question me? You claim | didn’t provide Mr. Pruitt with the Demonia Dragon Ginseng. Do you have any evidence? You accuseof causing Mr. Pruitt to burn his life force. What proof do you have? Are you relying solely on your baseless allegations?” Stephen questioned Jared skeptically. He didn’t believe Jared could produce any evidence.
Although what Jared said was correct, it was incredibly difficult to produce evidence for such a matter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared looked at Stephen, then shook his head. “I can’t provide any evidence. The Demonia Dragon Ginseng has been tossed into your item pouch, so | can’t find it. Unless you willingly take out your item pouch for inspection, or | kill you and inspect your item pouch myself. As for burning one’s life force, there’s no way to prove it now.
However, in two days, Mr. Pruitt’s health will deteriorate once again. Then, he will await the arrival of his life's decline, ultimately leading to his death!” “Hmph! You dare to slanderwithout any evidence. You have the nerves of steel.” Stephen sneered, then turned to Trystan, saying, “Mr. Pruitt, | kindly offered to treat you out of goodwill, yet this fellow slandered me.
Shouldn't you givean explanation?” “Dr. Livingstone, perhaps Mr. Chadwick has made a mistake. Please don’t be angry.” Trystan hurriedly consoled Stephen.
For him, he had even more faith in Stephen’s medical skills. After all, Stephen was quite famous in the deep parts of Demonia Mountain.
“Mr. Chadwick, Dr. Livingstone's skills are indeed remarkable, so you must have misunderstood!” Serena quickly pulled Jared aside.
Clifford also hurriedly chimed in, “Mr. Chadwick, there is no doubt about Dr. Livingstone’s medical skills. He doesn’t just treat anyone. It took us a great deal of effort to bring Dr. Livingstone here.” “If you wish to inspect my item pouch, | can bring it out for you to see. If there’s no Demonia Dragon Ginseng inside, | swear | won't let this matter rest!” Stephen, as he spoke, actually took out his item pouch.
