All the faces of these elderly medical scholars turned livid with rage. They were somewhat
embarrassed by the fact that they had been taunted like this by a bunch of Mitterans on Qustian soil.
Just then, someone from the Society for Research in Integrated Traditional and Modern Medicine
spoke. “It’s wrong of you to say that, gentlemen. Both modern medicine and Qustian traditional
medicine have their own merits.”
“Ho ho… What kind of merit does Qustian traditional medicine have? Why don’t I know that?” retorted
Hewlett Taft, the man leading the team of Mitteran experts. He continued disdainfully, “Do you think you
can cure diseases by drinking some plant decoction and jabbing needles in the skin? What a colossal
joke that is!” Crossing his legs, he added contemptuously, “Do you know what this kind of behavior is
called in Mittera? It’s called witchcraft!”
“How dare you!” Infuriated by his words, the elderly scholars trembled all over and breathed heavily
with rage. If it weren’t for the sake of decency, they’d have come to blows with these Mitterans right
away!
Scott, in particular, was frothing at the mouth. He said angrily, “How outrageous! This is outrageous!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow dare you make such insults about the medical skills that have been passed down in Qustia for
generations!”
“We aren’t insulting anything! We’re just telling the truth!” Hewlett replied arrogantly while raising his
chin. “If you guys really have guts, just cure the person using the so-called traditional medicine, you
pieces of trash!”
What the heck?! As soon as he said that, the few elderly experts in traditional medicine flew into a
rage, and so did the reporters and the onlooking citizens. They yelled loudly, “Get out of Qustia, you
bunch of foreigners! We don’t welcome you all! Screw you!”
Hewlett threw his hands up with a look of contempt. “Ha! Is that all you Qustians can do, relying on
your numbers? Cure the person if you can!”
Scott, Ronald, and the others exchanged glances with bitter looks on their faces. What could they do?
Joshua’s injuries were beyond repair.
Hearing how everyone was still clamoring in a frenzy of rage, Scott turned to look at Blake, the
president of Cleapolis Acupuncture Society. He asked, “Mr. Hemsworth, your acupuncture skills have
reached the acme of perfection. May I ask if you’re confident of curing the person?” Believing that
Kingsley was a conman, he had no choice but to place his hopes on Blake.
“Well…” Blake licked his dry lips. “Forgive me for being blunt, but no one can help the patient get back
on his feet unless there’s a miracle…”
Upon hearing his words, everyone looked utterly disappointed.
However, Hewlett said with a guffaw, “Haha! You guys are simply incapable of that! It’s not that I’m
looking down on you guys. If you guys can help him get on his feet, I’ll eat his wheelchair!”
The instant he said so, the dozen Mitteran experts immediately roared with laughter. “Haha…”
Just as everyone looked as black as thunder, an icy voice reached everyone’s ears. “What a huge
appetite you have, Mitterans! Well, in that case, I’ll grant this wish of yours!”
Everyone immediately looked in the voice’s direction, only to see a tall and dignified figure coming their
way with big strides. He was wearing a face mask that revealed a pair of dashing eyebrows and
sparkling eyes that were full of pride and righteousness.
The man was none other than Kingsley himself. Following behind him were Alice, Cecilia, and Alan,
who were very furious upon hearing Hewlett’s sarcastic remarks just now.

Clenching her teeth, Alice asked, “Kingsley, didn’t you say you’re certain that you can treat the patient?
Show these foreigners what you’re capable of, then!”
“Got it, Alice,” Kingsley replied with a smile before coming to Joshua’s side. Seeing the man’s ruddy
complexion, he couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction. “Don’t worry, Mr. Johnson. I’ll definitely let you
stand up again today!”
What? His words caused an immediate uproar in the audience.
“What? So he’s the one who claims he’s gonna cure the paralytic patient?”
“How old is he this year? Has he even graduated from college? How could he have the nerve to talk so
big?”
Everyone’s eyes showed disbelief when they saw Kingsley’s youthful appearance.
Hewlett looked Kingsley up and down before yelling at the latter in a condescending tone, “What did
you just say, you piece of trash? You’re gonna grant my wish? That’s too conceited of you! If you can’t
cure the patient today, I’m gonna publish a paper in The Banner Chronicles to expose the quackery of
Qustian traditional medicine after I go back to my country!”
Upon hearing Hewlett’s words, Scott and the others changed color at once.
