“You can’t solve it either?” Wynne Cline’s flicker of hope was quickly extinguished, replaced by a deep worry in her eyes.
She was keenly aware of her grandfather’s condition. If this poison wasn’t cured, even if her grandfather stopped using any Chi energy from now on, he might not last much longer!
“It’s alright!” Nathan Cline took a deep breath before speaking.
“The Hell Dark Flower, as the number one poison in the world, it’s understandable if it can’t be solved. Every day I can live with this poison is a blessing…”
“Why are you all so pessimistic?” Stout interrupted him. “I can’t solve it doesn’t, my Boss can!”
“Oh? Mr Gardner, can you cure the poison of Hell Dark Flower?” Wynne Cline’s face lit up with hope upon hearing Stout’s words.
“Didn’t I just say it! There’s no poison in this world that he can’t cure!” Stout proudly replied.
After that, he turned to Billy and said, “Boss, since he’s the disciple of my great-grandfather’s cousin, could you please help him out!”
“Looking at his condition, if not handled promptly, he probably won’t live more than two or three months!”
“I sincerely ask Mr Gardner to help save my grandfather!” Wynne Cline knelt down to Billy. “If you can save my grandfather’s life, I am willing to repay you by doing anything!”
“You may rise!” Billy pushed a gust of wind under her, lifting her up.
Then, he turned to Nathan Cline and said, “Go inside, find a place to lie down, I’ll give you acupuncture.”
“You really has the confidence to cure the poison of the Hell Dark Flower?” Nathan Cline’s eyes lit up with renewed hope.
Then, he made a respectful gesture and said, “This way, please, Mr Gardner!”
Afterwards, the group walked towards a nearby building.
The detoxification process was similar to before. With Billy’s current strength, helping someone detoxify was a piece of cake, even for the Hell Dark Flower.
After three hours or so, Nathan Cline’s body was mostly rid of the toxins.
“Mr Gardner, is it done?” Wynne Cline asked as Billy removed the nine silver needles from her grandfather’s body.
“Basically, it’s done!” Billy nodded and took a piece of paper and pen from the nearby table.
He then wrote a prescription and handed it to Wynne Cline. “Prepare the medicine according to this prescription, let Mr Cline take it continuously for five days, and the toxins should be completely eliminated!”
“Really?” Wynne Cline gratefully took the prescription. “Thank you, Mr Gardner!”
“Mr Gardner’s great kindness will never be forgotten. In the future, if you have any orders, I will not hesitate!”
Soon, Nathan Cline got off the bed and deeply bowed to Billy.
While speaking, he was extremely shocked!
As the current valley master of the Hundred Flowers Valley, he believed that his medical skills were among the best in the entire Polar Snow Region.
But now, he finally understood what it meant when they said there is always someone better out there.
In just three hours, this young man really helped him detoxify the Hell Dark Flower’s poison!
Although there were still some toxins left in his body, he was fine. Even if he didn’t take the medicine, he was confident he could expel the remaining toxins from his body in a few days.
“Happy to assist!” Billy waved his hand and added, “There’s still one part of the poison left in your body. Try not to use your Chi energy in the next two or three days!”
“I see!” Nathan Cline bowed again.
Then, the group sat down in the living room.
“Mr Gardner, why are you here in the Hundred Flowers Valley today?” Wynne Cline asked as she poured tea for everyone. “Is there something you need help with?”
“Indeed, I have a request!” Billy smiled faintly.
“Mr Gardner,” Nathan Cline responded, “You are the benefactor of the entire Hundred Flowers Valley, just give your orders on anything!”
“Do you know about the Crystal Spirit Fruit?” Billy asked after a pause.
“Crystal Spirit Fruit?” Nathan Cline was taken aback. “Are you here for it, Mr Gardner?”
“Exactly!” Billy nodded.
Nathan Cline’s reaction seemed to indicate that he had heard of the Crystal Spirit Fruit before.
After a brief pause, he continued, “As far as I know, there should be Crystal Spirit Fruits in the Hundred Flowers Valley!”
“Oh?” Billy’s eyes lit up. “Where is it?”
“Some time ago, when I was gathering herbs, I heard someone mention the Crystal Spirit Fruit. It was said that someone saw it at the summit of a snowy mountain,” Nathan Cline replied.
“Really?” Casey asked, “Do you know the exact location of that snowy mountain?”
“I do!” Nathan Cline nodded.
“Because the Crystal Spirit Fruit is extremely rare and valuable, I took note of the address of that snowy mountain.”
“I was planning to go take a look, but due to recent events, I put it on hold for now.”
As he spoke, he walked to a nearby table, fetched a hand-drawn map from the drawer.
“This is the address of that snowy mountain, about a thousand kilometers away from the Hundred Flowers Valley!”
“Thank you, Mr Cline!” Billy took the map gratefully.
“It’s my pleasure!” Nathan Cline replied.
After a pause, as if he remembered something, he looked at Billy and continued, “However, I advise you to think twice about this.”
“What do you mean?” Stout asked.
“For rare fruits like the Crystal Spirit Fruit, there must be high-level fierce beasts guarding them,” Nathan Cline replied.
“I heard someone say that there might be a seventh-tier Spiritual Beast at the summit of that snowy mountain!”
“Damn!” Stout cursed, “A seventh-tier Spiritual Beast? Isn’t that equivalent to a Seventh-rank Saint warrior?”
“Indeed!” Nathan Cline confirmed.
“If Mr Gardner isn’t in a hurry, wait a few days until the toxins in my body are completely cleared, and I’ll accompany you on the trip!”
“We’re running out of time!” Billy thought for a moment and shook his head.
“Why are you in such a hurry to find the Crystal Spirit Fruit?” Brett Charleston asked with a steady tone.
“To be honest, I’m looking for the Crystal Spirit Fruit to heal my mother, and I need to return within five days at the latest!” Billy replied.
“Your mother is also in Skydragon City?” Brett Charleston was surprised once again.
“Do you know Lady Stuart from there?” Billy didn’t hide it.
“Ah?!” Wynne Cline shouted out upon hearing this, while Nathan Cline and Brett Charleston both looked surprised.
“Mr Gardner, is Lady Stuart your mother?” Nathan Cline hesitated before asking.
“Exactly!” Billy nodded.
“It turns out that Mr Gardner is the son of Lord Stuart and Lady Stuart. My apologies!” Nathan Cline solemnly said.
“Both the Lord and the Lady, they are the heroes of Glavaleans, beings whom everyone adores!”
As he mentioned their names, a trace of admiration flickered in his eyes.
“Thank you for your praise, Mr Cline!” Billy smiled faintly.
“Mr Gardner, is the Lady injured?” Brett Charleston asked after calming his emotions.
“Exactly!” Billy nodded.
Then, he briefly explained the situation with the Moyer and Vaughan families in Skydragon City.
“Ah, I see!” Nathan Cline and the others spoke simultaneously.
After a brief pause, he spoke thoughtfully, “It seems that someone in Skydragon City has colluded with Frigid Fortress and Polar Trading Guild!”
“Yea!” Billy nodded.
Before today, he had thought that this incident was just about the two families vying for the position of city lord.
But now, it seemed that things were not so simple.
After speaking, he pointed to the collapsed Luis Long on the ground.
“Stout, wake him up, find out the truth!”
