163 Curing the Lunaite Disease (1/2)

”You what?” Senior Liu got agitated for a moment of what he heard. He could not possibly believe what this young man said.

In fact, even Zin Shi was shocked. What was Jin Rou thinking? Does he know what type of mess he is into now? — She asked inside her heart. She was already preparing for some words to back Jin Rou up in case worse comes to worst. But to tell that he could cure the Lunaite Disease which could not be cured by the people of this world? That's a big proclamation there.

”I said I can cure the little boy.” Jin Rou repeated.

”That's a big claim you have there, Little Friend.” Senior Liu was now irritated, ”Did you come from the mountain, secluded for thousands of years? The Lunaite Disease, which this little boy has, had yet to have a cure. At least, not for now.”

”Not because you guys cannot mean no one cannot.” Jin Rou said, ”As I have said, I can cure the boy.”

”Boy, do you know that what you said is an insult to our guild?” Senior Liu said, annoyed, ”It seems like you're saying right in our place that we are incompetent since you said you can cure this disease while our guild cannot.”

”Well, I can't say about the guild.” Jin Rou shrugged his shoulders, ”But at least, I know you are incompetent.”

”Audacious!” Senior Liu's body trembled in anger as veins bulged. He did not expect that this young man would not respect him even in his territory! No one had ever offended him in such a way. This time, he was looking at Jin Rou as if he was carving the face of this young man in his mind with murderous intention. If this place was not the Physician Guild, he would have thought this man a lesson!

”Young man... you said that you can save my son?” Feeling desperate, the woman asked in a tone of joy when she heard the words of the young man. As long as there was a little hope that his son could be saved, it was all she needed. She was willing to pay the price even if it was a failure.

”Yes.” Jin Rou responded, ”But do you trust me that I can save your son?”

”Don't trust him, Ma'am.” Senior Liu intervened, ”You don't know what will happen if you let him touch your son! Your son might not survive for days and die today instead!”

”Shut up! You can't even save my son or anyone from your guild! What is your say here?” The woman shouted. For some unknown reason, she could feel an assurance coming from Jin Rou and involuntarily believed his words.

This scene caused the bystanders to find it weird. After all, Senior Liu's words were heavier than the claims of the young man. Just think about it, the Physician Guild can't even find a cure for this disease. Yet a young man that popped out of nowhere could? That's pretty illogical. Even Zin Shi wavered whether she would help Jin Rou get out of this or not. She even did not know if she could get out of this mess once she barged in, even with the help of her master.

Jin Rou did not mind what others were saying. After all, they did not who he really was. He walked towards the little boy who was in pain and said, ”Amazing, little guy. You know that your disease causes a painful reaction yet you are not crying. Really, that's pretty amazing of you.” Just think about it, the pain the disease gave its victim was like thousand swords hacking you. For a little boy of such a very young age, he could already bear this just not to add burden and misery to her mother, wasn't it amazing?

This was also part of the reason why Jin Rou wanted to cure his disease. Because he was strong, at least mentally.

”I will cure you now, so you don't have to worry. Just trust me with this.” Jin Rou assured the little boy. He then looked at Zin Shi who was as if daydreaming and said, ”Zin Shi, lend me a needle.”
