Chapter 185 - Chapter 185 - 185 Osteophytes (2/2)

From the moment Chen Yu inserted needles into his body, he began to feel his blood flow gradually accelerate until even his heartbeat became strong and forceful.

Just as Chen Yu was preparing a medicinal soup for Reynolds, a noisy commotion suddenly erupted outside the castle.

“Mr. Hanick, your own student’s medical skills are lacking, so what does it have to do with others? You should properly discipline your student,” said someone.

Victor’s voice was extremely cold as he stood opposite an old man with a hunched figure.

“Impossible, Hans’ medical skills are nearly equal to mine, how could he lose to someone under thirty years old? There must be some trickery involved.”

Victor couldn’t help frowning, as in his view, Hanick was completely making trouble out of nothing.

“Do the two of you sense any problems?” Chen Yu suddenly emerged from within the castle, his hands still stained with some herbal residue.

Hanick immediately raised his walking stick, pointing it at Chen Yu and cursing loudly.

“I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be a young man from the East. He must have used some ‘Demon Art’ to bewitch you all. It would be best to pour away all the medicine he gave you and then drive him out, or else the entire William family will suffer terribly because of him.”

There stood Chen Yu, who had merely come out to see what the fuss was about, and yet he was suddenly accused of so many things.

“Demon Art?”

Chen Yu couldn’t help but find it amusing; what era was it already, and yet there were still people so ignorant and foolish.

He didn’t want to bother with this fellow; after all, he hadn’t finished preparing Reynolds’ medicine yet.

But just as he was about to leave, Hanick actually raised his walking stick to strike.

Chen Yu couldn’t help frowning; this was going too far.

He directly grabbed the walking stick and then stepped forward to seize the old man’s arm.

[Suffering from severe bone proliferation, most joints have become calcified, life expectancy less than two months.]

As the system’s notification sounded, Chen Yu also diagnosed the old man’s ailment.

He really couldn’t understand why such a sickly old man would come out to accuse him for no reason.

“Let go of my teacher!”

Hans shouted and rushed forward to grapple with Chen Yu.

Only then did Chen Yu understand that after all this commotion, the old man had come to stand up for Hans.

“Your teacher’s body is already in dire straits. If he doesn’t receive treatment, he won’t live more than two months.”

Hanick widened his eyes in disbelief; he was a doctor himself and was, of course, aware of his own body’s condition.

Severe joint proliferation had wreaked havoc on his body.

If it had happened in his younger days, he might have been able to treat it himself, but now that he was old and frail, with a considerable loss of calcium from his bones, his skeleton was quite weak.

If forcefully treated, it would only hasten his death.

“Nonsense!” Hanick stubbornly argued, attempting to pull his walking stick back to continue attacking Chen Yu.

But Chen Yu was quick, pressing several acupoints on his arm and then firmly twisted it.

The clear sound of joints popping could be heard, and Hanick’s previously twisted arm suddenly straightened, becoming flexible and mobile.

Hans stood there stunned: “Teacher, your arm seems…”

“Shut up!”

Hanick was somewhat angry; he certainly knew what had just happened. The bone deformation caused by long-term joint proliferation had been corrected in an instant.
