"I don't think it's certain yet," a skeptic countered, shaking his head. "What if the jade flesh is only on the surface layer? That would be a huge loss. It could be 'skin green'."At this moment, a man pushed his way to the front of the crowd. He looked at Old Zane with a calcula

Contrary to Frank Yates’s expectations, Cloud Lee didn't react with shock or anger. She casually swallowed the piece of foie gras she was chewing, dabbed her mouth with a napkin, and only then replied, "So, you finally found the courage to say it.""What do you mean?" Frank blinked, confused by her calm demeanor."You've had this thought in your heart for a long time, haven't you? You just never dared to say it out loud." Cloud Lee glanced at him, her eyes sharp, dissecting him.She wasn't wrong. The thought had taken root two years ago. Frank had grown weary of the Lee family treating him like a servant, weary of the constant disrespect."So... what do you think?" Frank asked cautiously.Cloud Lee shrugged, stabbing another piece of tofu. "I have no objections. As long as my mom agrees.""Your mom..." Frank’s stomach tightened. His mother-in-law, Joan Foster, was a force of nature—a dragon lady who guarded the family reputation with f

Miracle Doctor Tom approached Yvonne Hood, his face etched with a profound weariness that went beyond physical fatigue. "Ms. Hood," he said softly, "since your daughter has been saved by young Dr. Yates, this old man will take his leave.""Miracle Doctor Tom," Yvonne replied, maintaining the respect due to his station. "If it weren't for you, Joy wouldn't have survived the night. I truly don't know how to thank you.""There is no need for thanks. Given the relationship between your father and me, it was my duty." The old doctor shook his head, a wry smile touching his lips. "From today on, the title of 'Miracle Doctor' belongs to someone else."He turned and walked toward Frank Yates."Young friend," Tom Turner said, his voice sincere. "In all my years of practicing medicine, I have never truly admired another's skill. You are the first. I wonder if, in the future, I might ask you for some guidance?"Frank bowed slightly, respectful of the elder. "Miracle Do

Seeing Frank Yates about to step through the doors, Cloud Lee’s anxiety spiked. She rushed forward, grabbing his arm."Frank, think this through!" she hissed urgently. "Just because you know a little medical theory doesn't mean you can cure everything. You don't have a Medical License. If that girl dies on your watch, can you bear the responsibility? Think about the consequences!"Cloud Lee was a sharp woman. The formidable men guarding Yvonne Hood radiated power and danger. If Frank intervened and failed—if that little girl died while he was treating her—these men wouldn't just file a lawsuit. They would destroy him.Yvonne Hood turned to look at Cloud Lee. She recognized her from the crash site the night before."I trust Mr. Yates," Yvonne said, her voice trembling but firm. She looked Cloud in the eye. "No matter what the outcome is, I promise I will not hold Mr. Yates responsible for anything. I swear it."The previous night, Yvonne had

As the Purple Glow Dagger vibrated with high-frequency tremors, the blood-red hue that saturated the jade began to recede like a tide going out. It moved swiftly, draining away to reveal the material underneath.Frank Yates’s right hand could no longer maintain its grip. The weapon shook violently, breaking free from his fingers. But instead of clattering to the floor, it floated in mid-air, hovering steadily at chest height in front of him.The transformation was complete. The crimson stain was gone. In its place, the dagger appeared to be made of crystal-clear, colorless glass—transparent and pure.Frank stared unblinkingly, his breath caught in his throat, waiting for the next change.Suddenly, the mysterious carvings etched into the blade's surface ignited. The Runes flared to life, emitting a brilliant, regal purple light.The glow wasn't blinding; rather, it was mesmerizing. Frank could clearly trace the intricate shifts and flows of energy

Once the Nine-Cycle Soul Return Needle formation was complete, Frank Yates’s vision shifted. To his spirit-enhanced eyes, the translucent gray shadow hovering over the little girl’s body—her fleeing Soul Essence—halted its ascent. It was no longer drifting toward the Gates of Hell, but it remained stubbornly detached, refusing to sink back into the physical vessel."It’s not enough," Frank thought, sweat trickling down his spine. "I need to force it back in."He extended his left hand, fingers pressed tightly together, and hovered his palm just inches above the girl's forehead. To the onlookers, the gesture looked mystical, almost like a priest performing a last rite or a magician preparing a trick. Even the police officers, who were busy documenting the crash site, paused to stare.The mother, Joy’s mom, sat on the cold asphalt, her bloody hands clasped together. She had stopped screaming. Now, she just watched Frank’s left h
Chapter 048
Frank Yates knew that in the eyes of his wife, his image was set in stone. He was the live-in loser, the man who drove the car and cooked the meals, not a man of substance. Words were cheap, and after four years of being looked down upon, he knew that no amount of eloquent speech would change Cloud Lee’s mind. Only cold, hard facts—undeniable reality placed directly in front of her—would shatter her preconceived notions.So, he remained silent.His hands tightened on the leather steering wheel of the Mercedes, his knuckles whitening slightly. instead of arguing, he pressed down on the accelerator. Ahead, the traffic light at the intersection was counting down. The digital green numbers flickered: Nine... eight... seven...The engine purred, a low growl of German engineering, as the car surged forward to beat the light.Sensing the heavy silence, Cloud Lee sighed. The alcohol in her system was fading, leaving behind a residue of guilt. She realiz
