INJURIES

CHAPTER 401 - OLD FRIEND

You said that you failed the mission?

Hearing the report of the lanky man beside him, Todd's face immediately became unsightly.

At this moment, Lowell's heart was in his throat. He did not expect that this kid's life would be so huge that even the Hundred-eyed Ghost would be unable to kill him.

This thin and tall man was Hundred-eyed Ghost, who had made the assassination world afraid and made them below the Death God.

At this moment, Hundred-eyed Ghost was expressionlessly looking at Todd in front of him.

In his heart, however, he was slowly disdainful.

To be honest, he truly didn't think much of Todd's methods. He didn't have much ability, but he was actually thinking of seizing power from his own son.

If he wasn't so desperate to find the 'Death God'...

He would never accept such a messy mission.

I will settle this matter.

Hundred-eyed Ghost coldly replied. Regardless of whether he liked it or not, since he had already accepted the mission, he had to complete it perfectly.

Otherwise, it would damage his reputation.

I hope you can hurry.

There was some anxiety in Thoth's voice, but when he noticed the coldness in Hundred-eyed Ghost's eyes, he immediately shrank back in guilt.

Honestly speaking, Todd was a little afraid of the Hundred-eyed Ghost. Who knew that after offending this guy, he would get killed in the middle of the night?

I know.

Hundred-eyed Ghost turned around and left the study, his eyes squinted in thought, thinking about how he should deal with Zhang Chao.

After not seeing him for so many years, he wondered what kind of status that man had reached out his hand to.

Let's go, I'll go see the old man.

Todd smiled as he watched Hundred-eyed Ghost leave. He did not believe that Hundred-eyed Ghost was really unable to do anything to Roren.

The mishap last time was only an accident.

After saying this in a low voice, he turned around and led his butler towards the room that the old man was recuperating in.

His feelings towards his own father, Todd, had always been complicated. He did not understand why his father would not care about his son even though he liked Roren so much.

Alright.

The butler nodded and then followed Todd upstairs.

There was a complicated look in his eyes.

Although he had always been by Todd's side, but he was a little annoyed by what Todd had done this time.

The so-called spectator sees clearly, the instigator is enthralled.

It could be said that the butler had seen all these clearly.

If the Ao Ding family were to really fall into Todd's hands, they would probably be directly annexed within a few months.

A hundred years of foundation would be destroyed.

At that moment, the butler's cell phone vibrated.

When Todd went to the sickroom, the butler picked up the phone carefully and found a place to stay inconspicuous. Then, he picked up the phone.

How's things going?

Zhang Chao waited for Roren to finish making his call before asking in a low voice.

He looked tired from the day's running.

He was lying on the sofa, unwilling to move.

It's more or less done. Tonight, we can sneak in and someone will come to support us.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. How could he not move at all?

Beside Todd, there had always been people he had arranged to watch over.

Okay. I'm going to rest for a bit. When it's time, remember to call me.

Zhang Chao nodded, and did not say much.

Zhang Chao had an idea of his physical condition, he needed to rest now.

Otherwise, the amount of energy in his forehead would not be enough for him to sustain Ao Ding's treatment.

I see. Do you need anything to prepare?

Roren looked at Zhang Chao's tired expression and nodded.

He could also tell that Zhang Chao's current condition wasn't very good.

Prepare some silver needles for me. Also …

Seeing the confused look on Roren's face, Zhang Chao smiled helplessly. Then, he took a piece of paper and wrote down what he needed on it.

Alright.

Although he couldn't understand what the words on the paper meant, he still nodded his head very obediently.

After bidding farewell to Zhang Chao, he took his things and headed towards the nearest traditional Chinese medicine store.

Since this matter was related to his grandfather's body, Roren naturally cared deeply about it.

Who wrote this prescription for you?

Who would have thought that when Roren took out the prescription, the old man guarding the counter actually had a glint in his eyes, as if he had seen something incredible.

A friend, I wonder if you have any friends here?

Roren was confused as he looked at the densely packed herbs in the shop. He felt a headache coming on.

Lowell couldn't help but sigh. The culture of the East was truly magical.

He seemed to have seen some herbs that looked like tree roots in the shop.

Of course, there were also some things that were even more surprising.

Yes, yes!

The old man hurriedly said and instructed the people under his command to hurry and prepare.

It was a long story, but it only lasted a few seconds.

Can you introduce this friend to me?

The old man looked pitifully at Lowell, as if he would never give up until he had achieved his goal.

Lowell was exceptionally speechless.

You can't blame him for this. After all, there are a lot of differences between Chinese and Western cultures.

One must know that as a Chinese doctor, if one used his own secret prescription, then he would simply be an invincible existence.

This was also why the old tutor was so excited when he saw the prescription in Roren's hands.

It had to be known that what Zhang Chao took out was not some ordinary thing, it was enough to attract the attention of people who already treated research as life.

Well, he doesn't like to know strangers.

Lowell said somewhat embarrassedly, but he was not so foolish as to tell everything to this old man.

It was better if he did not interfere in Zhang Chao's matter.

Is he also in his early fifties this year? We are friends.

The old man impatiently said.

He remembered that the man didn't seem to like strangers either.

Therefore, when he later became the pharmacy's boss, that person disappeared without a trace.

If it wasn't for the letter he sent every year, he would have suspected that the person had hung up somewhere.

No, he's only in his twenties this year.

Lowell reached for the wrapped ingredients and took his leave.

The old man was left confused.

A little over 20 years old?

How could he be so young?

But that prescription was really from his old friend.

What was going on?

CHAPTER 402 - ARE THEY ALL HERE

You said that the old man was shocked to see the prescription?

Zhang Chao took the medicinal ingredients that Roren had brought back, and sat on the sofa to carefully examine them.

There wasn't much time left for them tonight, so he had to make sure he didn't make any mistakes.

Zhang Chao was a cautious person. Even if he was one hundred percent confident in the things that happened today, he would not be overly conceited.

He would still obediently do what he needed to do once more.

It was precisely this kind of good habit that allowed Zhang Chao to safely arrive at the situation he was in today.

Yeah, and he even said that he's an old friend of his in his fifties.

Roren frowned and said, curiously reaching out to take the medicinal herb in Zhang Chao's hand, then putting it under his nose to ask, before throwing it back with a look of disdain.

Lowell really didn't like these weird things.

Yes.

Zhang Chao nodded his head, that pill formula could be said to be something passed down from his master's bloodline, could it be that he was an acquaintance of the old man?

Zhang Chao knew very little about his own master, so he didn't know what was going on.

However, he still had a lot of things to take care of in front of him, and these things could be put on hold for now.

Is everything ready?

Looking at the things on the table, he tilted his head and looked at Zhang Chao.

His ability to discern all of these medicinal herbs was practically zero, and all of them could only be settled by Zhang Chao alone.

In any case, he would look for what was missing.

There is nothing missing. Go rest, there are still a lot of things to do tonight."

Zhang Chao yawned lazily and then packed away a pile of medicinal herbs.

He carried them to the kitchen.

The ingredients needed to be boiled, he couldn't possibly let the old tutor eat them raw.

Yes.

Lowell nodded, not objecting.

His energy was not comparable to Zhang Chao's, so even if he was injured, he could still jump around happily at this moment.

As for Zhang Chao's previous tiredness, after a short rest, it had also completely disappeared.

It was enough to make people jealous.

Get to work.

Zhang Chao yawned and began to clean the medicinal ingredients.

Smelling the familiar smell of the medicinal herbs in the kitchen, Zhang Chao's heart gradually calmed down. Everything here made him feel extremely familiar, as if he had returned to that peaceful life.

The wind blew the curtains open, adding a bit of coolness to it, blowing away the slightly bitter medicinal fragrance in the kitchen.

Zhang Chao added a medicinal herb to the soup, then leisurely turned his body, squinted his eyes and smiled: Coming. Old friend."

Death, I am here to take my life.

At the side of the window stood a tall and thin man. He was Hundred-eyed Ghost who left from Todd's place, and at this moment, he held a dagger in his hand as he looked at Zhang Chao with a smile.

In the next instant, it seemed as if they were about to meet in a bitter hug, rather than a clash of arms.

We still don't know who will win. I can defeat you the first time, but I can also defeat you the second time. "

Zhang Chao took the kitchen knife from the flowing water stage and played with it.

Yes, although he didn't look that domineering on the surface, but he was still quite suitable.

Moreover, Zhang Chao believed that the tools in Roren's kitchen must also be brand-new and sharp.

At least it was more than enough to cut off a person's throat.

The two of them were like arrows that had been released from a bow. No one wanted to be late by even a minute and a half. When the blade made contact, it created a sound that would cause people to grit their teeth.

All of these moves were obviously known by Zhang Chao and the Hundred-eyed Ghost, and they were not fast enough to break.

Both his opponent and his own hand felt slightly numb from the successive blows.

My kung fu has improved after a few years of absence.

After dozens of moves, Zhang Chao and the Hundred-eyed Ghost quickly separated. They stood by the wall, breathing rapidly, their eyes filled with coldness.

It was clearly a foolish decision to keep his enemies growing.

Zhang Chao could feel the threat that the Hundred-eyed Ghost was giving him.

In the long run, he had to be wary of this guy.

It's been a few years, but your mouth is still as unpleasant as ever.

This was probably the first time Hundred-eyed Ghost talked the most when he was out on a mission.

She stretched her wrist, held the dagger tightly and continued to rush towards Zhang Chao.

This time, it was not only to ensure Todd's safety, but also to ensure his own safety in the future.

and Hundred-eyed Ghost were both in this state at the moment.

The Hundred-eyed Ghost already had the strength to exchange blows with Zhang Chao, so if Zhang Chao didn't kill the Hundred-eyed Ghost now, there would definitely be another powerful enemy appearing in the future.

It's alright, you won't hear it soon.

The corner of Zhang Chao's mouth raised slightly, he knew that between him and Hundred-eyed Ghost, there had to be a conclusion.

Either you die, or I die!

The battle slowly entered its white-hot phase. The two of them moved very quickly, and as a result, their physical strength was consumed very quickly.

At this moment, Zhang Chao and Hundred-eyed Ghost's foreheads were filled with sweat, but no one had the time to pay attention to it.

Zhang Chao's mood became even more downcast. If this continued, it would seriously affect tonight's operations.

Zhang Chao was a little stiff after moving around a little. He was not a war machine after all, so he would feel exhausted after moving around a little.

However, after feeling exhausted, he felt exceptionally excited.

The excitement from the rapid secretion of adrenaline made Zhang Chao even more eager to try it out.

Every molecule in his body was clamoring as they charged forward, killing this reckless challenger in front of them.

It seems like it should end now!

Zhang Chao's blade slashed towards Hundred-eyed Ghost's neck, but Hundred-eyed Ghost did not react. He leaned back in a hurry and dodged the blade in a sorry state, but the blade immediately stabbed into Hundred-eyed Ghost's shoulder, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out.

Hundred-eyed Ghost rolled on the floor in a sorry state. He crawled up and used his hands to cover his wounds.

Hundred-eyed Ghost was a little unwilling. After all, if he missed this opportunity, he did not know how long he could wait until the next time.

Seeing that Zhang Chao was about to continue attacking, the Hundred-eyed Ghost didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest. He raised his hand and threw the dagger towards Zhang Chao's head, and then, taking advantage of the moment Zhang Chao was dodging, he jumped out of the window and hurriedly disappeared into the forest.

When Hundred-eyed Ghost left, Zhang Chao also sat on the floor with his bottom, his face pale white, obviously his condition wasn't very good either.

CHAPTER 403 - OBSESSION

What happened?

It had to be said that the soundproofing effect of Roren's apartment was not that bad. Therefore, when Roren looked at his own kitchen which was a mess with traces of blood on the floor, he realized that something had happened. Someone had attacked Zhang Chao.

Hundred-eyed Ghost has come to play with me.

Zhang Chao didn't feel the slightest bit of pressure as he glanced at Roren. He then said, What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me up.

Are you hurt?

Looking at Zhang Chao's pale and sweating face, Roren immediately started to panic.

He hurriedly held Zhang Chao's hand, then helped his up and helped his sit on the sofa.

No, I think my wounds will be treated again soon.

Zhang Chao's face became a little more gloomy, he grimaced as he took off his shirt, only to see that the gauze had already been dyed red.

It was obvious that the severe movement from earlier had caused the wound that he had just sewn to split open once again.

No way.

Hearing Zhang Chao's words, the corner of Roren's mouth twitched a few times.

When he thought back to the tragic scene of him helping Zhang Chao heal his wounds, Roren felt like his stomach was rolling about again.

This kind of thing was a little too exciting for a young master who lived like a prince.

Where did all this nonsense come from? Hurry up.

The pain from the wound caused Zhang Chao to become a little irritable, as he impatiently said this before opening the medical box. He directly handed the scissors to Roren and had someone cut the gauze off first.

Fine.

Lowell reluctantly took over the rest of the work. He found that he was on the verge of becoming a labourer.

He would do whatever Zhang Chao said, and Zhang Chao would not pay him any wages.

Yes.

Zhang Chao frowned, suppressing his pain. He did not like to reveal his weak side.

How should he put it, he would more or less feel embarrassed.

After all, he always had a strong image in front of these people.

In comparison, the people on the Hundred-eyed Ghost's side weren't so 'considerate'.

stood inside the study room, his face pale.

The wound on his shoulder had not been treated and his clothes had already turned blood-red.

He had already stood here for nearly half an hour, which was also why Hundred-eyed Ghost and Zhang Chao did not like taking over's family business.

If the employer was someone else, even if the mission failed, they could just wait for the next operation. There was no need for them to be scolded like a subordinate.

But if it was a person from a large clan like Ao Ding, the position of the two parties would immediately change.

No matter how arrogant you were, there was no way you could go against a family that could dictate the country's decisions.

Therefore, no matter how unhappy Hundred-eyed Ghost was in his heart, he couldn't show it at all in front of Todd.

Failed?

After a long while, Todd finally said those words in a strange tone, as he squinted to look at the Hundred-eyed Ghost in front of him.

He wondered why it was so hard to kill Lowell.

Yes.

Hundred-eyed Ghost indifferently replied with no intention to explain.

He still had his own pride. He could express his respect for the Ao Ding Family, but there was no need to lower his stance too low.

This was also the pride of Hundred-eyed Ghost.

How could it be like this? Just who are you, to actually be able to make you feel helpless.

After Todd heard this news, he flew into a rage.

He furiously threw away the table arrangement by his side, looked at the random things scattered on the floor, and said with a cold tone.

There is a god of death guarding him. I can't move.

Hundred-eyed Ghost replied calmly. He didn't feel excited or excited at all from the time when he was facing Zhang Chao.

It was as if he was reporting a trivial matter.

Death? Which Death God?

Todd frowned, he had never heard of this kind of person, could it be that he was a new killer?

How could Lowell have known such a person?

The old one.

Hundred-eyed Ghost looked at Todd speechlessly, as he said indifferently.

He really didn't know whether his employer was stupid or just faking it.

Why can you even mention such a retarded question?

Wasn't that person missing?

Todd suddenly remembered that person who disappeared a few years ago. Could it be that he had returned?

Why didn't he receive any news? Even from his circle, there was no news about him accepting the mission.

I wouldn't recognize the wrong person.

Hundred-eyed Ghost said indifferently, then turned around and left the study.

He understood his current physical condition. If he didn't deal with it quickly, his arm would be crippled. I will continue to think of a way to deal with this matter. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first.

Looking at the back view of Hundred-eyed Ghost's departing figure, Todd was momentarily unable to react.

After a long while, he shuddered.

He had heard of that person's name before, and he also knew that his family's old man and the relationship between him and Lowell were definitely not ordinary.

Thinking about that man's past methods, Todd suddenly felt afraid for some reason.

If he failed, what kind of fate would he end up in?

Todd didn't dare to imagine it at all.

He could only rely on the Hundred-eyed Ghost now, as only the latter could guarantee his own safety.

Although some people were not in the martial arts world, their names were spread throughout it.

Zhang Chao was clearly such a person.

Just this name alone was enough to scare many people and make them not dare to act rashly.

Sitting in his own room, Hundred-eyed Ghost expressionlessly took care of the wound.

There was no hesitation on his face from disinfection to the stitching of the wound, but there was a pensive look on his face.

Thinking about the fight with Zhang Chao today, Hundred-eyed Ghost felt even more apprehensive.

Death had been out of the business for so long that he had thought he would still make some headway.

However, after this exchange, he felt that the Death God seemed to be more and more terrifying.

He had become an unsurpassable existence.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, his attitude towards Zhang Chao was still a bit complicated.

He had once regarded death as his idol and had always hoped to surpass it.

That was why he was still lost for a while after the death.

However, when he discovered that he could never surpass Zhang Chao, the Hundred-eyed Ghost felt incomparably defeated. However, he felt that this was a matter that was only natural, since that person was the god of death.

CHAPTER 404 - NURSE

Master, Lady Wen Zi is calling.

The butler walked over with a light smile and a mobile phone, and handed it over to Todd.

This girl called Wen Zi could be said to be Todd's new partner.

Yes.

Todd nodded his head. What happened today made him feel exceptionally restless. What he needed now was precisely a warm place that could soothe his uneasy heart.

In fact, Todd also felt a little uncomfortable. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he was truly afraid because that person was the god of death.

This realization greatly hurt Todd's self-esteem, he desperately needed comfort right now.

Hello?

Todd reached out to pick up the call, and asked indifferently. Hearing the woman's soft voice, he immediately felt extremely comfortable.

No matter what, he was still in charge of the Ao Ding Family. As long as he sat in this position for a day, it would be easy for him to make things difficult for Roren.

As long as he could get the command medallion back from the old man, death god would not pose a threat to him at all.

Todd refused to believe that his own clan, which had trained so many people, could not handle a single death god.

At that time, the legend of the god of death would disappear completely!

My dear, when will you be back? I've already prepared some food for you.

Wen Zi was an island woman, and her voice was filled with the peculiar gentleness of an island woman.

It was as if everyone took Todd as their number one. This made Todd, who had not received much attention before, feel incomparably comfortable.

This was also the reason why Wen Zi was pampered.

I'll go back now.

Todd said with a smile, and the unhappiness in his heart immediately disappeared.

After getting bored for a while with his little lover, he finally hung up.

During this entire process, the butler stood quietly by the side, as if he hadn't seen or heard anything.

One could see what was going on through one's nose and heart, and was extremely competent.

I'll go to Wen Zi's side tonight. Take good care of the old man.

Todd was very satisfied with this butler.

The housekeeper was an old man in the family. He had a sick son who needed a large amount of medical fees.

Perhaps his father had never thought that he had bribed the steward.

It could be said that the steward had a huge role to play in allowing him to sit in this position.

Yes. I will go and notify Mr. Hundred-eyed Ghost right now, that we must ensure their safety. "

He knew how scared Todd was of death. Today, he had seen Hundred-eyed Ghost covered in blood and he had returned.

Probably, Todd was even more afraid to go out on his own.

Mm, we'll do as you've arranged.

This matter was related to his own safety, so Todd didn't hesitate at all.

From today onwards, he has to keep Hundred-eyed Ghost by his side at all times. What if that Roren guy wants to take revenge on him and find someone to assassinate him?

Indeed, Todd cared especially about his own life.

Alright, I understand. Master, please rest assured.

the butler said with a smile, and then handed the coat over to Todd.

Then he turned around and went upstairs to find the Hundred-eyed Ghost.

Who is it?

When he heard the knock, Hundred-eyed Ghost just used the bandage to bandage his shoulder wound. He opened the door and asked with a frown.

Teacher wants you to follow him out.

The butler spoke politely, as if he had no objections to Hundred-eyed Ghost's impatient attitude.

Got it.

Hundred-eyed Ghost nodded, he did not feel that Todd did not understand anything.

To put it bluntly, chasing them out to kill others for their goods was just taking money from them to deal with others. Since they had already given them money, they had to fulfill their duty.

There was no need to complain.

Yes.

After bringing Hundred-eyed Ghost downstairs, the butler sent the two of them off with a smile on his face.

Looking at Todd's leaving figure, the old butler's smile disappeared completely.

Taking out the phone from his pocket, the butler spoke in a calm voice, He has already left. He will not come back tonight. Everything is ready. "

Got it.

The voice that came from the other side obviously belonged to Lowell.

Maybe it was only Todd's entire life that he would think of it, but the old man was already prepared for what he was about to do.

He thought that the steward he bribed was just an insider he had arranged in advance.

After Zhang Chao found out about this matter, he could not help but let out a sigh.

This family's water was really too deep. Everyone was calculating and scheming. No one knew who was beside them, as they could only believe in their own existence.

In the evening, a black car slowly stopped in front of the main residence of Ao Ding's family. A few average looking guards got off the car with a panicked look, as if they had never seen such a huge scene.

This place is really beautiful.

A nurse could not help but sigh. His eyes were filled with greed, as if he was telling him that it would be great if all of this belonged to him.

This couldn't be blamed on him. After all, he was just an ordinary person. It was very likely that there was something in this place that he wouldn't be able to buy in his entire life.

Why are you talking so much? Come in with me. Don't say anything carelessly. Don't touch anything carelessly, okay?

The leader impatiently said. He really didn't know what was going on with the old gramps, and none of the hired guards were satisfied with it.

But he didn't dare to have any meaning. If he wasn't satisfied, then he would just have to look for it again.

Got it.

The few of them immediately nodded their heads, indicating that they would definitely not act rashly.

He then followed the leader and entered the castle.

Although there were still people looking around during this process, there wasn't any trouble in the end.

Butler, I found these. See if it works.

Within the hall stood an old man. At this moment, he was smiling without the slightest hint of impatience. It was obvious that he had a very good temper.

The leader quickly walked in front of the old man and said respectfully. Then, he pointed at the guards behind him.

Alright, I understand. Go down and get your wages. Sorry for troubling you."

The butler nodded his head in satisfaction and did not say anything else.

He then looked at the two people standing at the back of the line with a kind expression on his face.

You two should go down and rest first. Come with me, you two.

The butler pointed at the last two people in the team and led them to the ward.

CHAPTER 405 - GUILT

When the two attendants entered the room, they immediately relaxed.

Needless to say more, these two were precisely Zhang Chao and Roren who had disguised themselves.

After buying out the leader, he naturally got the job.

opportunity.

Thus, he sneaked into the old mansion safely.

Young Master, I've received the item.

The butler looked at Roren with a slight smile, then sent Roren the medicine that Zhang Chao had brewed out from the cabinet.

Mm, sorry to trouble you.

Lowell hurried forward and helped the butler out.

He was extremely grateful towards this old man.

If it wasn't for this old man's help, their plan wouldn't have been carried out that easily.

Although Zhang Chao could definitely force his way in, there was still a hidden Hundred-eyed Ghost in the shadows, no one knew when that guy would appear to cause trouble.

If anything happened to Zhang Chao when he was being treated, there would be no chance to save his at all.

Zhang Chao would never treat life as a joke. Since he had other choices, he would of course choose someone safer.

Thus, he could only make arrangements through the old housekeeper.

One had to know that this old man was the one who understood Ao Ding the most in his clan and Todd the most in his family.

No need to thank me. This is what I should do.

The old butler politely made a gentleman's salute, then left the room, leaving everything here for Zhang Chao and Roren to handle.

He was wary of other people intruding at this time.

Well, we don't have much time.

Zhang Chao smiled and checked the things he had brought with him once more. Afterwards, he took the things he had brought with him and walked into the room with Roren.

Ao Ding lied on top of the sickbed, his body looked even worse than it did a few days ago.

You're here.

After hearing the voice, Ao Ding opened his eyes and tilted his head to look at Zhang Chao and Roren. His eyes looked a little cloudy, as if he had truly aged a lot, as if he would disappear in the next moment.

What did he do to you?

Zhang Chao's expression immediately became unsightly. He could tell with a single glance that Todd had definitely done something to the old man.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so haggard. Looks like I have really underestimated Todd's viciousness, and the last time he was here, he should have directly brought the old man to leave.

Nothing, I was just a bit anxious.

The old man shook his head, clearly unwilling to say more. Zhang Rainbow sat on the bedside and stretched out her hand to grasp his wrist, intending to take his pulse.

However, he saw the densely packed pinholes on his wrist. He was slightly surprised for a moment before anger slowly welled up in his eyes.

What are you guys doing here? Did something happen?

The old man shook his head at Zhang Chao, obviously unwilling to let Roren know about this.

He had to admit that the old man truly felt sorry for him.

Un, the First Prince has set his sights on the Ao Ding Family and asked to work with Roren. So we think you need to get better a little faster.

Zhang Chao's tone was filled with determination. No matter what the old man said today, he would not change his decision.

A person's pulse could explain many things. For example, Zhang Chao was very sure that Todd must have injected some kind of liquid into the old man's body to cause him to become this weak.

This kind of liquid could very likely be something that could only be used in torture or other situations.

What exactly did Todd want to take from the old man's hands?

The First Prince? How did he find Rover?

This matter also made the old man a little confused. Ao Ding's family and the imperial family rarely interacted.

After all, after entering the business world, it would be difficult for the Ao Ding Family to receive the acceptance of the aristocrats, even though they were the strongest existence.

However, in the UK, traditions and the like were more important.

This matter is my responsibility. The First Prince has noticed the relationship between me and Lowell.

Zhang Chao sighed, obviously feeling guilty.

Cooperating with the Imperial Family was an opportunity for the Ao Ding Family to develop themselves, but at the same time, it was also a huge challenge.

After all, under the dignity of the Imperial Family, the moment the Ao Ding Family took a wrong step, they would be met with an irreparable calamity.

No, even without you, I would have thought that this day would come sooner or later.

The old man sighed and said softly.

Ao Ding's family was a special existence to Britain. If they were unable to become the target of cooperation, there would be a day when they become enemies with each other.

Compared to an asset-level aristocrat, the royal family was obviously more respected by others.

At that time, the Ao Ding Family would be in an even more passive situation.

Zhang Chao's appearance had merely brought forward this matter.

However, since they were already prepared, it was only natural that they would be more at ease.

Yes, if there's anything you need, you can contact me anytime.

Even though the old man had said this, Zhang Chao more or less felt a little guilty in his heart. Thus, he decided to keep more thoughts about the matters of the Ao Ding Family in the future.

Then I'll be troubling you.

The old man said while smiling. Based on his intelligence, he naturally knew how important this was to the Ao Ding family.

Zhang Chao's promise had at least guaranteed Roren's safety for the time being.

This is the most precious thing.

Zhang Chao, can we start the treatment now?

Compared to Ao Ding's family's future plans, Roren was more concerned about Ao Ding's body at this moment. He didn't want anything to really happen to his grandfather, and it wouldn't be good at that time.

Mm, that's enough.

Zhang Chao smiled and nodded, then went to the bathroom. He poured the sap of the medicinal herbs that had been brewed into the bathtub according to a certain amount of warm water, then got Roren to help the old man take off his clothes and soak them in the water.

It was obvious that he wanted to get rid of the poison in the old man's body, as these potions were the most important thing.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of Zhang Chao's afternoon on this.

Is that all?

Roren looked at his grandfather who was immersed in the black liquid, and looked at Zhang Chao uncertainly.
