“Poisoned? A Demonic Cultivator? What are you talking about?” As looked at Jared in disbelief. “My
daughter hasn’t even left the manor all this while, so how could she have been poisoned? Also, you’re
saying that Mr. Goeckner is a Demonic Cultivator? I was by his side the entire time, so how can I not
tell that he’s a Demonic Cultivator if he’s really one? You’ve cured my wife, and that is something I’m
grateful for, but if you’re trying to show off your medical skills, it’s best if you do that after a few years
more of training.” As did not believe Jared at all.
Even Victor was looking at Hamish with a troubled look. Thus, Hamish stepped forward to tug Jared
and said, “Mr. Chance, perhaps you’ve misjudged the situation. Let’s go.” Hamish knew that As
would certainly not believe Jared’s words. If Jared insisted that he was right, then the atmosphere
would turn tense.
Noting As’ attitude, Jared could only smile and say, “Maybe I’ve misjudged the situation. I’ll be
staying in Salinsburgh City for a few days, and if you have anything you need, feel free toe to me.”
With that, Jared left. If not for that tree of Victor’s that contained celestial energy, he would not have
said anything about Effie at all.
“He may be young, but he’s quite an ill- tempered one,” As remarked with a scoff. Victor, too, had a
look of displeasure on his face. “Hamish, you’ve brought a rather arrogant alchemist with you this time.”
Hamish could only offer a sheepish smile and nothing else. At a courtyard in Salinsburgh City, Hyrum
was merrily lying on the reclining chair, sunbathing.
At that moment, Xanthus returned in a despondent state. Perhaps he was unhappy because he could
not find Demon Seal Alliance’s branch.
Without Demon Seal Alliance’s branch’s assistance, it would be challenging for them to kill Jared.
Thus, upon seeing the return of Xanthus, Hyrum leaped to his feet.
However, with a gloomy look, Xanthus asked, “How was it? Did you cure Mr.
Jablonski’s daughter?” “I didn’t…” Hyrum shook his head.

“Then wipe that smile off your face. We can’t find anyone from Demon Seal Alliance to help us out, and
I’m afraid the few of us won’t be able to kill Jared.” Xanthus then fell heavily onto the reclining chair.
Nheless, Hyrum continued to grin. “Calm down. Although I couldn’t cure Mr.
Jablonski’s daughter, they’ve agreed to put out a bounty for Jared. As long as Jared dares to step foot
into Salinsburgh City, Mr. Jablonski will help us capture him.” Xanthus’ interest was piqued when he
heard that. “What do you mean? Tell me the whole story.” “Mr. Jablonski’s daughter isn’t ill. She’s just
poisoned, and it’s from the type of poison I create, a poison veil. However, her case is severe, and
even if she’s away from the poison veil, she’ll still lose consciousness every once in a while.
I’ve used drugs to temporarily suppress her episodes, and I told him that I can concoct the right pill to
cure his daughter for good. That’s why Mr. Jablonski agreed to my terms,” Hyrum smugly said.
“Then can you really cure his daughter?” Xanthus inquired.
Hyrum shook his head. “His daughter’s poisoning is severe; I can’t cure herpletely. However, I can
create the right pill to temporarily suppress her symptoms. Once Mr. Jablonski helps us capture Jared,
we’ll leave Salinsburgh City right away. By then, his daughter’s condition won’t be an issue to us
anymore.” Hyrum knew from the start that he could not cure Effie; he was merely lying to As.
“That’s a good n.” Xanthus curled his lips. “You didn’t expose your identity, did you? I hear that Mr.
Jablonski is quite a formidable opponent. If he finds out your true identity, we’re doomed.” “No, I had
them stay far away from me when I was treating her, and I had an arcane array shielding me too.
There’s no way they discovered anything,” Hyrum answered with a shake of his head.
“Hahaha! In that case, let’s just wait for Jared to be sent to our doorstep!” By now, Xanthus’ foul mood
was nowhere to be seen as he burst into happyughter.
