Chapter 193

Author: Foxy Whispers
About three minutes later, Thiago abruptly started coughing before slowly opening his eyes.

"He's awake! Lord Drakeford is awake!"

Everyone in the room was overjoyed, and Cassian finally exhaled in relief.

"Cassian? What are you doing here?" Thiago asked before noticing Horace on the side. "And why are you here as well, Horace?"

Chuckling, Horace remarked, "Do you know that you almost died, Thiago?"

"I… didn't die?" Thiago sounded rather disbelieving.

"Why would you die? You're going to live to a ripe old age!" Claude cried out tearfully. "Not only are you alive, but Dr. York has gotten rid of the parasitic poison. You've made a full recovery!"

"Is that really true? You must be lying to me, aren't you, Claude?" Thiago questioned, still finding it hard to believe.

"Mr. Hudson is telling the truth. He's not lying to you," Cassian said with a smile. "The parasite has been removed from your body, Lord Drakeford. You're going to be in perfect health again. All you need is a few days

    "Cassian, didn't you say it was a parasite? Why is it a snake?" Claude asked in confusion."That's the Two-Fanged Venom parasite," Cassian replied while pointing at the little snake. "It was only the size of the tip of a toothpick when it was inside Lord Drakeford's body. It was a very cunning creature. It not only hid itself behind his lungs but could also roam freely along all of his blood vessels.""If that's the case, Dr. York, it should've been discovered during any of the previous tests Lord Drakeford took," Horace remarked. "Why did none of the medical tests ever reveal its existence?""Perhaps you're unfamiliar with the parasitic poisons from the Mogerra territory. These parasites are cultivated from young and fed fresh blood daily. Once it enters a person's body, it will hide itself within the blood vessels and become exceedingly difficult to locate," Cassian explained."Moreover, the parasitic poisons of the Mogerra territory are extremely mysterious. There are ways to en

    Humming thoughtfully, Cassian assured Claude, "Don't worry. No matter where that parasite is hiding, I'm going to drag it out today."He activated the All-Seeing Eye and began searching within Thiago's body for signs of the parasite once more. Alas, all five subsequent searches turned up empty.By now, his forehead was covered in sweat, and he looked rather pale. Repeated use of the All-Seeing Eye drained a great deal of his inner energy.Over in the corner, the three other doctors whispered among themselves."What method is Dr. York using to find the parasite?""Why is he just standing there? Is he trying to locate the parasite with his eyes?""That's impossible! The parasite is hidden inside Lord Drakeford's body, so how can it be seen with the naked eye? It's only possible if Dr. York has X-ray vision."Horace was rather curious as well. Every time Cassian searched for the parasite, he stood motionless and simply stared fixedly at Thiago. While he was doubtful himself, he gue

    Cassian was a little nervous. After all, Thiago was on the brink of death. One wrong move, and Thiago's life would come to an end."Give me a needle!"Cassian stretched out his hand, and Horace immediately placed a gold needle onto his palm. He proceeded to insert it into Thiago once more.In the span of a single breath, he stuck 36 needles into Thiago's body. Most of them had been placed along Thiago's legs and right arm. Only his left arm remained needle-free."Mr. Hudson, is there a brazier in the house?" Cassian suddenly asked."Yes, there is," Claude replied. "Ever since he was poisoned, Lord Drakeford's body swings between bouts of feeling hot or cold, so we've kept braziers in the house to use whenever he needs additional warmth.""Bring one over."Claude hurried off and came back with a brazier. It was an old-fashioned kind with a wooden frame that surrounded a metal basin. A fire had been lit, and the charcoal was burning strongly.Cassian dragged the brazier to the si

    "Let me do it instead," Horace said.He took the disinfectant and carefully started sterilizing the gold needles. Meanwhile, Cassian took off Thiago's clothing and found that half of his body looked bruised and reddish, while the other was ghostly pale.When he pressed his palm against Thiago's body, the red side felt scorching hot, as though he had touched a smouldering piece of charcoal. On the other hand, the pale side felt like a sheet of ice that had been frozen for centuries, chilling him to the bone.It was clear that the Two-Fanged Venom had already taken hold of Thiago's heart vessels."Here," Horace said, passing the sterilized gold needles to Cassian.Taking the gold needles, Cassian swiftly stabbed one in between Thiago's brows, followed by another on the crown of his head and a final one in his throat. He placed them with great precision and without the slightest bit of hesitation.Horace was taken aback. It was his first time seeing someone insert acupuncture needle

    "Gold needles?" Claude repeated as he froze, stunned.Acupuncture treatments were usually conducted with silver needles. Where could he find a set of gold needles?Cassian explained, "Lord Drakeford was poisoned with the Two-Fanged Venom, and the parasitic poison is still within his body. Gold needles contain light energy, while the poison is a form of dark energy, so they are the perfect counter."Claude was at a loss. "It's easy enough to find silver needles, but I've never seen gold needles before. I don't know where I can find them."One of the old doctors jumped in, saying, "Dr. Sunderland owns a set of gold needles, Claude. He carries it with him at all times.""Really?"Eyes lighting up, Claude quickly requested, "Dr. Sunderland, can I borrow your set of gold needles?"Ignoring Claude, Horace looked at Cassian and asked, "Did you say that Lord Drakeford is suffering from a parasitic poison?""That's right," Cassian confirmed with a nod."You intend to use acupuncture to
