Chapter 559: Master Tam's Friend
Ten minutes later, Tina opened her eyes. The discomfort around her heart had dissipated, and she rose to
inspect Jack's right hand. Seeing the spot where the needle had been inserted, Tina momentarily lost focus. "Girl,
when did | ever teach you to be distracted while treating someone?" Master Tam chided, bringing Tina back to
her senses. Clutching the needle, Tina twisted it gently at Jack's acupoint before slowly removing it. She then fed
Jack a healing pill, restoring his hand to normal.
"Tina, | feel much better," Jack said, moving his hand and looking towards Master Tam. "Are you Tina's master,
Master Tam?" Master Tam nodded his head slightly, "Yes." Jack bowed in respect, "Forgive my lack of hospitality,
please rest a while. After the gentleman inside comes out, | will express my thanks."
"We're all family here, no need for formalities," Master Tam replied, taking a seat where Tina had been sitting, his
eyes on the blue tea on the table.
The Brookes family was indeed generous. This rare blue tea cost billions per piece, yet the Brookes family
brewed it as casually as plain water. Tina, seeing the look on Master Tam's face, knew what he was thinking. She
approached and lifted his arm, noticing that the wound there had healed significantly, easing her mind.
Tina turned her head towards the firmly closed door of Grandpa Brookes' bedroom. "The person who just came,
is he the expert friend you mentioned?" she asked. Master Tam nodded, "Of course, my friend is quite handsome,
more so than your fiancé." Ignoring Master Tam's frivolous demeanor, Tina continued, "Has he been to Serenity
Ridge before?"
"No, we are friends of old age, all met after my supposed death, which you haven't seen," Master Tam explained
with a wave of his hand.
Across from them, Jack almost choked on his blue tea, staring at Master Tam in shock. "What do you mean by
‘met after death'?" Tina, with a resigned touch to her forehead, explained, "Uncle, my master faked his death
before and has only 'revived' recently." Jack burst out laughing, "Master, your life is indeed... colorful."
"Ordinary, ordinary. It could be more carefree if this girl wasn't so pressing," Master Tam waved dismissively,
somewhat proudly.

Jack set down his tea cup, "The gentleman who just entered, | also feel he seems familiar, can't quite place it
though. Have we met before?" Both Tina and Jared were startled. Jack felt it too? Who could this man be? Master
Tam secretly rubbed his fingers together, "My friend has a common face, the kind everyone finds familiar." Tina
slowly said, "He couldn't possibly be handsomer than my Uncle."
"Hey girl, how did you becsuch a flirt?" Master Tam chuckled, "Sit properly, be careful or you'll internalize
these injuries."
Tina touched her chest, "No worries, my injuries have all healed." Then, she turned her gaze back to the
bedroom door, "Master, your friend's medical skills are several times superior to mine." This statement surprised
everyone. Tina was known as a Spectre, a legendary figure who could heal the dead and mend bones, how could
anyone surpass her medical skills? Master Tam offered no further explanation, just a sheepish grin, "There are
always people better than us. But don't lose heart, girl. You're only nineteen. By the tyou're his age, you'll be
the number one divine physician in the world."
"I'm not discouraged, I'm just curious. Who is this person? I've never heard of him before. He never stood out,
yet now you've encountered him?" Tina asked.
"Isn't that the case? You haven't stood out in all these years either, yet you've beca part of Spectre!"
Her words left Tina with no ground for rebuttal.
Half an hour later, the bedroom door finally opened and a man emerged, his forehead covered with sweat and
his shirt stained with traces of blood.
Tina approached him, "Are you alright?"
The man caught his breath, "I'm fine. Did you have someone prepare the medicine? Bring it here, let Grandpa
Brookes drink it." Tina glanced at her watch; it was about time.
At that moment, Amanda Quinn cover with a bowl of medicine, a pot full of medicinal herbs reduced to just
a small cup.
The man fed the medicine to Grandpa Brookes. "He will wake up soon. | need to rest now."
Just as Tina was about to support the man, Master Tam stepped forward first, "Here, your blue tea is ready. Drink
up."
Tina clenched her fist in the air but said nothing.
The man sat down and took a sip of the blue tea on the table, finally catching his breath.
"Mr. Brookes, your father's old injury acted up. It's now been alleviated. Remember, on rainy days, do not let him
go outside."
Jack nodded, "I haven't had the chance to ask for your name."

"Warren Pace."
A flicker of surprise crossed Jack's eyes.
The nPace was not common in the country.
And he happened to know someone with the sname.
But that person had not been seen for many years, and this one...
Thinking this, Jack dismissed the thought.
The Pace he knew had no medical skills; this one did, so they couldn't be the sperson.
Or could it be? Perhaps the other Pace had taken up medicine as a pastime, given his profound abilities.
Jared also recognized the name.

And he knew someone by the sntoo, though not Warren Pace.
That person was his idol.
Aside from Natalie, the person he admired the most!
Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on
the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! But like Jack, he thought the same;
that person had not appeared for a long time.
Tina, however, had never heard the name. She had spent most of her earlier years in Serenity Ridge and hadn't
encountered anyone with that nafter coming down from the mountains. But she was more concerned about
something else.
"Mr. Pace, why couldn't | insert the needle earlier? What exactly is inside my grandfather's body?" She was
confident in her medical skills, but also accepted her limitations.
Since she did not know the reason she couldn't use the needle, she naturally sought advice humbly.
However, as she asked, Tina's gaze remained fixed on Mr. Pace's face.
She was checking to see if Warren Pace had disguised himself.
Unfortunately, she found no evidence of Warren Pace having altered his appearance.
Even his facial bone structure showed no changes.
Tina's eyebrows, sharp like willow leaves, twisted ever so slightly. No disguise, no change in bone structure - why
did she feel this man was so familiar?
The closer she got, the stronger the sense of familiarity.
"It's hard to say what it is exactly, but I've found why you couldn't insert the needle. It's because you forced that
thing into a corner, but it won't vanish easily. The stronger the opposition, the stronger it resists. If you had
withdrawn a single needle at that moment, letting it breathe, there would have been no issue," Warren Pace
explained with a smile.
