Chapter 435 - Chapter 435: 435 (2/2)

Patients with leprosy were generally in a state of cellular necrosis, making it impossible to repair their cells.

But unexpectedly, the system not only restored them but also activated the vitality they had long since lost.

When the masked elder opened his eyes, he was so excited that he couldn’t speak.

Having remained in that state for who knows how many years, suddenly returning to this appearance gave him a sense of rebirth.

“Mr. Chen, how on earth did you do it? I have sought the help of many doctors before, even the world’s top medical teams, and they all said the damage to my body was irreversible.”

Chen Yu waved his hand dismissively, “There are good and bad expert teams in this world, you may have just met some quacks, that’s all.”

Chen Yu yawned casually and left the room.

The crowd around the castle was growing, and the number of shops on the streets had doubled compared to before.

Though the population had increased, so had many problems.

So many people suddenly arriving here caused a shortage of supplies, and some fought over food.

Jin Lingsu was also among the crowd, seemingly in a conflict with a merchant caravan.

Chen Yu didn’t bother with that and jumped straight down from the castle.

The masked elder was just about to come out to thank Chen Yu when he saw this scene and hurried down from the castle with several people.

The merchants weren’t from the Lakato family but a common caravan that had come from another desert.

This group was very rude, with dozens of strong men armed with a lot of weapons.

Jin Lingsu clenched a golden scepter in her hand, staring fiercely at these fellows.

“This scepter was originally mine; it only got lost during an operation, and now it’s simply returning to its rightful owner.”

The man leading the caravan was not pleased, drawing a long knife from somewhere and pointing it at Jin Lingsu.

“You dumb bitch, we went through hell and high water to get this treasure. What proof do you have that it’s yours now?”

The two sides were at a standoff, and it looked as though they were about to come to blows.

Chen Yu ran over in a panic, stopping Jin Lingsu.

“What exactly is going on?”

Jin Lingsu shook the golden scepter in her hand, “You should remember this object, you helped me buy it back in Frankfurt.”

Chen Yu observed the scepter, the runes engraved on it were extremely neat, indeed the kind used by Egyptian pharaohs.

Indeed, it had been bought at an auction in Frankfurt.

Chen Yu frowned, “I remember your scepter was supposed to be in the Strait of Magellan, how did it end up here?”

Jin Lingsu gnashed her teeth and glared at the merchant caravan beside her.

She had a private treasury in the Strait of Magellan, where the golden scepter was kept.

Now that it had appeared in the hands of these people, it meant that her private treasury had definitely been robbed.

Chen Yu took a moment to adjust his breathing, then walked up to the man in charge.

“This golden scepter is indeed ours, may I ask where did you acquire it from?”

Chen Yu was polite enough, considering that the private treasury might have been robbed by these very people.

The man leading the caravan suppressed the anger in his heart.

“My name is Macallan! I’m a legitimate businessman. This golden scepter, along with many other treasures, were acquired through legitimate channels. There’s no reason for this lady to slander us.”
