Chapter 458 Imposter
Teagan Langford, the uncle of Blanche, spoke up, addressing Alpheus, who was a few years older than
him. “Alpheus, it has been quite some time, and we still haven’t seen any progress. Can we truly rely
on Mr. Lund?”
Teagan had always been skeptical of Emrys, unlike his elder brother Alpheus. He believed that due to
Emrys‘ young age, his medical skills couldn’t possibly be as advanced as claimed.
Alpheus glanced at Teagan, his brow furrowed, and sternly said, “You must show respect to Mr. Lund…
I understand your doubts, but think about it again. How extraordinary is Friar Althos? Can we
underestimate his disciple?”
Although Emrys was young, Alpheus didn’t find it surprising when he considered Emrys‘ master, Athos.
Emrys‘ medical skills couldn’t be judged solely based on his age.
This was precisely why Alpheus had complete faith in Emrys.

Emrys wouldn’t disappoint them.
Creak!
After a long wait, the Langford family finally heard the sound of the door opening. They looked up and
saw Emrys. Alpheus quickly asked, “Mr. Lund, how did it go? Has my father’s illness been cured?”
With an expressionless face, Emrys glanced into the room and replied, “Go in and see for yourselves!”
When a prominent figure faces a downfall, it gives rise to various hidden challenges.
Alpheus and the others, waiting outside the room, felt as if each day was dragging on. Every minute
seemed to stretch ten times longer than usual.
Samuel was the pillar of the Langford family. His fall was simply unthinkable.
As soon as Emrys opened the door, they couldn’t wait to rush in.
When they saw Samuel lying motionless on the bed, an ominous feeling couldn’t help but creep into
their hearts.
As they approached, they realized that Samuel’s immobility wasn’t their only concern. His heartbeat
and respiration had also ceased, indicating that he had passed away.
The anticipation that had filled the members of the Langford family was suddenly replaced by a
profound gloom.
In an instant, the room became filled with an oppressive, somber, and suffocating atmosphere.
The silence was so profound that it was terrifying.
The only sound that could be heard was the increasingly labored breathing of the Langford family
members. The hatred in their eyes was also intensifying.
“What exactly happened here?” Alpheus roared at Blanche.
He clenched his fists, emanating the aura of a Manifestor Grandmaster, making the atmosphere in the
room even more oppressive and suffocating.

Blanche wanted to explain but was immediately stunned by her father’s outburst. She felt a deep sense
of injustice in her heart.
She knew that her father was acting this way because Emrys was Athos‘ disciple. He didn’t dare to
direct his anger at Emrys, so he took it out on her instead.
Through his indirect criticism, Alpheus was essentially
questioning Emrys. How did he treat his father, and why did it result in his death?
If Alpheus‘ actions could be described as somewhat restrained, then Teagan’s behavior was
undeniably aimed at a specific individual.
He stormed towards Emrys, his eyes bloodshot as he shouted, “You claimed to be Athos‘ disciple,
didn’t you? Explain to me why my father suffered this fate. Did you come here to harm him?”
Teagan firmly believed that Emrys was merely a fraud, responsible for his father’s demise.
As Teagan vented his anger, the rest of the Langford family also directed their hateful glares towards
Emrys.
