A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs
Chapter 81 Imagining the Astonishing Background
Mordred looked admiringly at William and reiterated, “Mr. Barrett, your medical skills are bizarre yet effective. It’s truly an eye–opener,”
William replied modestly, “Mr. Mordred, you flatter me. If the blood fungus wasn’t poisonous, you should’ve been able to cure Elderblade White long ago.”
Mordred smiled bitterly. “One wrong step, and you’re bound to make more mistakes.”
Then, a servant entered and said, “Mr. White, someone named Tristan Xenon is here to see you.
Tristan? Julian thou
Julian thought for a moment. “Why is he here? Let him in!”
Soon after, Tristan rushed in, sweating profusely and looking ashen–faced. He kneeled before William and pleaded, “Mr. Barrett, please save me. I’m in so much pain… I’d rather die than live like this!TM
He sobbed uncontrollably in unbearable agony. He wished to die rather than stay alive as his body was covered with injuries! He even hurt himself as the pain was excruciating, consequently breaking a few bones.
William looked coldly at Tristan and questioned, “Why didn’t you get a doctor? Dr. Mordred here is divine doctor. Do you want to give it a go?”
ד
“I don’t want to. Please, just save me! Tristan cried as he could not bear the pain any longer. It was beyond what a human being could endure.
William said indifferently, “I can save you, but you must follow me.”
He walked ahead while Tristan was assisted by someone to follow suit.
The onlookers looked at each other in surprise. Dr. Barrett is truly remarkable. The local tyrant of this area even came to beg for his help!
Jesse’s complexion was pale. Didn’t I just kneel to William?
Jesse.” Gerald suddenly spoke from inside the vat.
“Dad.” Jesse hurried over while trying to put on a smile.
“Kneel!” Gerald roared. He had regained fifty percent of his strength, so his voice sounded like thunder.
Jesse was scared to death. Among the five siblings, he was beaten the most since childhood, so he was terrified of his dad. Without hesitation, he plopped down onto his knees.
Gerald sneered. “I may not move, but I can hear the conversation crystal clear. You tried to steal the blood. fungus from Dr. Barrett, and you even wanted to kill him? Are you trying to destroy me?”
Jesse was about to cry. “Dad, L… I’was wrong.”
“If it weren’t for Dr. Barrett’s magnanimity, I would’ve been dead today!” Gerald was furious. “You b*stard!”
Julian quickly added, “Dad, it’s all over now. Besides, Jesse has already kneeled and apologized to Dr. Barrett.

Gerald sighed. “You guys don’t know your place! Dr. Barrett is not an ordinary person!”
Jesse and the others were surprised. “Dad, do you know him?”
Gerald looked serious. “Although I don’t know his background, I’m not blind. I can feel that his breathing technique is extremely advanced! It’s even above the White Family’s Ultimate White Breathing Techniquel
Everyone’s expression changed. What kind of technique was above the Ultimate White Breathing Technique?
Jesse slapped his thigh and exclaimed, “No wonder Brandon fell out with me over him! We almost got a fight because of this! Does this show that the influence behind Dr. Barrett is greater than the White Family’s?”
into
Gerald sneered. “At least you have a brain. With such a breathing technique, how could Dr. Barrett be an ordinary person? Fortunately, you didn’t make a move. Otherwise, you’d already be dead!”
Jesse was profusely perspiring. “I was indeed reckless this time; but what kind of power could surpass the White Family?”
“You’re naive!” Gerald’s face darkened. “There are many powerful masters in the Igneus. What is the White Family compared to them? How many of those Warrior Kings have you seen?”
Everyone was shocked. Warrior Kings? Jesse exclaimed, “Dad, could he be the heir of a Warrior King?”
Gerald shook his head. “I don’t know, but his breathing technique is at least at the level of a Warrior King! Even if his teacher isn’t a Warrior King, his teacher must be an extraordinary expert. William may even be the scion of a prominent martial arts family! Whatever the case, he’s not someone the White Family can afford to offend.”
Jesse slapped himself in the face. “I was blind! Dad, I will apologize to Dr. Barrett again later!”
Gerald’s expression cleared up slightly. “It’s good for you to think like this. You have to understand that Dr. Barrett is so young, yet he has such superb medical skills and the cultivation base of Qi Emanation. How skilled and powerful do you think his master is?”
Julian added, “Dad is right. For a divine doctor like him, he likely has friends all over the world. His teacher’s connections would even be more terrifying. Once we become enemies, the White Family will likely suffer a devastating blow.”
The White Family members were discussing and imagining William’s identity to be incredibly powerful. Meanwhile, Williamn himself was in another room, looking at Tristan expressionlessly. He was in agony and begged. “Mr. Barrett, please save me. I can’t hold on any longer!”
William said, “Don’t worry, Tristan, I’ll help you end your suffering. However, I have a request.”
Tristan quickly replied, “Mr. Barrett, please tell me what you need. I’ll do it!”
William said, “I want to invest in a real estate project, and I am short of several million. Can you lend me some money? Of course, it’s not for free. I’ll pay you an annual interest of one percent.”
Tristan was almost in tears. One percent interest? He said, “Mr. Barrett, you don’t need to pay me any
interest.”

50%
William was deeply satisfied. Tristan had previously conspired against him, Tia, and her father. If he did not teach Tristan a lesson, he would not feel justified.
“Lend me 525 million then,” he said. William was currently short on loads of capital for his investment in the Ivory Dragon Cove project, but he did not ask for more.
Tristan did not hesitate and immediately had his secretary handle the loan. Within ten minutes, William’s bank account received a transfer of 525 million. After seeing the text message, he patted Tristan a few
With each pat. Tristan felt a comfortable energy flow throughout his body, and he collapsed to the
ground, unable to move.
William stood up. “Rest for a while. You’ll fully recover in half an hour.” After saying that, he went to check on Gerald’s condition.
Tristan’s eyes widened in heartbreak. How did he provoke such a person? Thinking that he would have to endure this kind of pain every month on the night of the full moon, he wanted to die.
Brandon stood by and stared at Tristan, uttering coldly, “Master Tristan, I’ve heard of your reputation as the Jade King
Tristan forced a smile and responded, “Master Cromwell from Leftbank, your name is also well–known. I’ve made a fool of myself in front of you today.”
Brandon laughed and said. “It’s your misfortune that you offended William.”
Tristan let out a long sigh. “Master Cromwell, I’ve underestimated him. I deeply regret it!”
To which Brandon replied, “Master Tristan, I know the identity of the person behind you. His power is on with the White Family of Greenford. Both of them are evenly matched. Today, Jesse kneeled and apologized to William! But you dared to attempt murdering William? You’re truly bold and admirable.”

Tristan’s face looked pale. “Could you please explain it more clearly? Who is the person backing Dr. Barrett?”
