issues were graduadly emerging.
She had examined Qian’s condition and noted that he had at least five differentnesses. Additionally, his body harbored a slow–acting poison. This poison was difficult to detect and had likely been in his system for over 40 years. It might also be the reason why Qillian’s other health issues were Interestingly, Gillian seemed to have some immunity to the poison Lay wondered he had eaten Michael’s Palson Pill
After all, a Poison Pill could cure all poisons. However, Elven Qillian’s age, his immune system couldn’t fully expel the toxins, which eventually led to long–term damage to his
“The auction must have brought in billions, right?” Lily tied her head and asked nonchalantly.
They had already crossed the billions mark just from her and Jaiden’s contributions alone, not to mention the other…
Layton nodded. “Yes, but it doesn’t change mach. The Weisses have been heavily in debt for a long time. Especially without the Redushil, our family won’t regain our former glory.
Lily frowned “Is it that bad?”
“Ms. Brooks, you’re not from this circle, so you might not know the rules. Once a family falls in ranking, it’s hard to climb back up. Moreover, many hidden families have emerged in recent years and disrupted Bridgeport’s structure
“Even the Four Great Families are struggling to maintain their positions, let alone the Weisses.”
Lily fell silent.
When they reached the living room, Lily asked Layton to go in first. She found a quiet comer, took out her phone, and dialed a number.
The call was quickly answered, and a raspy voice came through. “Hey, what’s with the surprise call?”
“I met cilian, and he asked me to bring you something. Where are you now? I’ll deliver it to you. If Loid or others were around, they would’ve noticed Lily’s tone was unusually relaxed and casual. It was a side she seldom showed to anyone else.
There was a long silence on the other end. “How is he? Is he doing alright?”
“He’s been poisoned and has five concurrent illnesses. He won’t last more than a month,” Lily answered truthfully
Another pause ensued before he spoke again, “I can’t make it back for the time being. Can you save him?”
“You want me to save him? Lily asked,
“He’s the only true friend I have this lifetime” Michael’s voice was heavy with emotion.
Lily nodded. “Alright, I got in ”
She then paused before asking again, “Where are you?”
Michal chuckled awkwardly. “I’m in Mardonia.”
Lily’s expression instantly darkened. “Why did you go there? Don’t you know your own situation?
“Come on, don’t be mad. I just felt cooped up and needed some fresh air. There’s a medical conference here, so I thought I’d check it out,” Michael said in a placating tone.
“Didn’t you swear you’d never practice medicine again? What’s the point of attending that?” Lily asked emotionlessly
Embarrassed, Michael scratched his head. “Tsaid I wouldn’t practice medicine, but it doesn’t mean I can’t keep learning, right? Besides, I have to keep up so that I can teach you. If torget everything, how am I supposed to teach you?”
“Do you really think you have anything left to teach me? Lily countered.
Michael was left speechless,
He had to admit that his only apprentice was a genius
Medicine was one of the things that Michael took pride in throughout his whole life, but Lily learned all the medical skills he possessed in just two months. She not only mastered
them but also created numerous new treatment methods.
Lily even leamed the revive acupuncture techniques he had spent his entire life perfecting on her own. He truly had nothing left to teach her.
“You have there days to get back, or 1’come to Mardonia myself,” Lily send sternly.
“You little rascal. You’re always bossing me around.” Michael felt a pang of frustration. “I’ll buy a ticket and head back tomorrow.”
Lily’s expression softened a bit. “I’ll send the item quan gave me to your usual spot. Remember to take it. He said it was from Kanya.”
Michael Immediately stood up. He sounded especially agitated. “I’ll buy a ticket right now. Don’t send it to the usual spot. Give me an address and I’ll come to you direy the ” Lilgrained an eyebrow “Alright”
