Chapter 561
After David left, an old man walked out of a partitioned-off area in the room.
“Grandpa Sven, what do you think?” Elsa asked.
“Nothing. He’s just an ordinary person, Elsa, I don’t think there’s any need to waste time on him. The moment the family says something, there will be a large number of families lining up to cooperate with us,” the old man said.
“No way!” Elsa denied it immediately.
“Elsa! Don’t you believe in my ability? As long as he is a martial artist, I’ll be able to sense it, even if he’s only a third-class martial artist.”
“I trust my intuition more.”
After Elsa finished speaking, she took out a walkie-talkie and said into it, “Do it.”
Someone in the walkie-talkie immediately replied, “Roger that, Miss.”
Then, Elsa walked to the other room to stare at the big screen, with the old man following her.
This old man was Elsa’s grandpa, Sven.
Not only was he powerful, but he also had a unique sensing ability.
His status was very high in the Winters family. Except for Elsa, the future head of the Winters family, no one dared to talk to him like this.
Of course, this was also the reason why he had been fond of Elsa ever since she was a child.
Everyone in the Winters family spoiled Elsa as she was the most talented person in the Winters family in hundreds of years,
She carried the hope of leading the Winters family into reclaiming their former glory in the coming troubled times.
Therefore, in the Winters family, many of Elsa’s unreasonable demands were allowed.
She even disrupted the family’s plan and came out ten years ahead of schedule to chase her dream, which the family allowed.
Besides her, none of the younger generation in the Winters family enjoyed such treatment.
This made all the family members of the Winters family envious.
However, even if they were envious, they could not do anything because despite her roaming about in the outside world, Elsa’s strength and realm were indeed much better than theirs.
This was why Elsa received special treatment.
The moment David got into the hall.
He scanned the room and saw some men flirting with Celia about ten meters away. Meanwhile, Celia was responding to them, looking bored.
When David was about to walk over, he suddenly saw a server with a tray slip not far away from Celia.
The tray in the server’s hand was instantly sent flying toward Celia.
More importantly, there were four to five glasses filled with red wine on the tray.
If it hit Celia, not only would she be slightly injured, but it would also embarrass her.
The few glasses of red wine would definitely soak through Celia’s white dress.
If her white dress was dyed the color of red wine, one could only imagine what would happen.
Furthermore, there were so many people at the scene.
David did not have time to think, and he instantly exerted strength on his feet. Before the tray touched Celia, he rushed to her side, hugged her, turned around, and dodged the tray and red wine that had been flying toward Celia.
Celia was his girlfriend, and she was the woman he was going to love all his life. Hence, in his heart, he could not tolerate any damage to Celia.
Crash crash crash crash crash!
The tray and glasses fell to the ground, making a series of noises.
The server quickly got up from the ground and repeatedly apologized to the two of them. He kept bowing and he had a terrified expression on his face. “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!” David ignored the server.
Instead, he spoke softly to Celia in his arms, “Are you alright?”
“I’m alright,” Celia said, hugging David tightly and burying her head in his chest.
Although she said that she was alright, she was truly startled just now.
Only the smell of something familiar could make her feel at ease.
At this time, David looked at the server who had been bowing and apologizing. At the same time, he also saw some of the watermarks he stepped on when he slipped.
It did not look like it was intentional.
Hence, he did not want to split hairs over this.
“It’s fine, just be more careful next time,” David said to the server.
“Thank you! Thank you!”
The server continued bowing.
David left the hall with Celia, feeling curious.
Inside the room.
Elsa and Sven were staring at the big screen blankly. They could not come back to their senses even after a long while.
“G-Grandpa Sven! Did you see his actions?” Elsa broke the silence and asked.
Her voice was dripping with surprise.
“I-I didn’t!” Sven stammered his reply.
At this moment, his face was also filled with shock.
The scene on the big screen just now was still replaying in his head.
Obviously, David was still at the edge of the hall a moment ago.
However, in the blink of an eye, he actually crossed a distance of dozens of meters and arrived at the other side of the hall.
Moreover, people were moving all around the hall, but he did not crash into a single person, which was a bit scary.
“How far was that?” Elsa asked again.
“It should be about thirty or forty meters,” Sven replied.
“How long did he take?”
“In the blink of an eye, less than a second I think!”
“Grandpa Sven, can you do that?” Elsa asked, turning to look at Sven.
There was an inexplicable look in his eyes.
“I can do it if there are no obstacles, but in this case, I can’t! At least a dozen people are walking back and forth in the middle, and it’d be so hard to not crash into anyone while
‘crossing such a long distance in such a short period.”
“So his strength might surpass yours?” Elsa asked in disbelief.
“This is impossible! How old is he? He’s in his twenties, so even if he started practicing martial arts when he was still in his mother’s womb and he has invincible talent, he would not be able to reach my level.”
“Then how can you explain this?”
“Some sects and families that specialize in body movements and weightless technique can do it.” “Really?”
“Of course!”
“For example?”
“For example, Oden Clan’s Heavenly Stairs. This is the weightless technique that’s well -known around the world. If you can practice it to perfection, you will be able to do it,” Sven said with certainty.
To be frank, he had never seen Oden Clan’s Heavenly Stairs and he had only heard about it.
As for whether a person could do it if they practiced it to perfection, he had no idea.
However, he could only explain it in this way.
‘He’s just a young man in his early twenties. Could he be stronger than me?
‘Impossible!
This kind of monster would not exist in this world.
Even in Somerland’s thousands of years of history, no such person had ever been recorded. He would rather believe that David had practiced this one kind of peerless weightless technique to perfection.
Even that was shocking enough, but it was easier to accept than David’s strength surpassing his.
Chapter 562
Elsa did not pursue this matter further.
Instead, she walked in front of the big screen.
Then, she started to search for the scene of David at that exact moment.
She also did not believe that David was stronger than her Grandpa Sven.
One had to know that her Grandpa Sven was halfway to God Rank.
If David surpassed her Grandpa Sven, wouldn’t it mean that he was a God Rank guardian?
David was only in his early twenties.
Like Grandpa Sven said, even if he started practicing martial arts in the womb, he would not have reached this level.
So, she chose to believe what Grandpa Sven said.
David must have learned some kind of top-notch weightless technique and body movement,
Furthermore, he had also practiced it to the state of perfection which was how he managed to achieve the effect earlier.
This was enough to shock her. She knew how difficult it was to practice a top-notch martial art to the state of perfection.
Even now, she had not practiced any of the Winters family’s family martial arts to perfection.
Furthermore, she was nearly ten years older than David.
She wanted to slow down the video and rewatch it a few times to see how David could do something that even Grandpa Sven, someone who was halfway to the God Rank, could not. ‘What kind of weightless technique and body movement is so powerful?’
The scene reversed to when David appeared at the entrance of the hall, then it slowed down and started playing.
On the screen, one could see David instantly turned into a shadow traveling among the crowd… Apparently, slowing the footage down was not enough.
Elsa continued to slow it down further.
Finally, they could see him clearly.
After David saw what was going to happen to Celia, he rushed straight through the crowd. Whenever he turned the corner or turned his body sideways, he would perfectly avoid everyone. Finally, he approached Celia, grabbed her, and turned to avoid the tray and glasses.
The entire process was completed in just one breath.
There were no pauses in between.
It was as if he could predict everyone’s movements and managed to avoid everyone perfectly, not even touching the corners of their clothes.
It was just incredible!
Sven admitted that he could never do that.
He could avoid these people quickly, but he would certainly be several times slower than David. In reality, they did not know that what David used was not a weightless technique or any special body movement at all, but he was just simply exerting his strength to the extremes, coupled with his strong mind power to achieve such an effect.
Without the help of his strong mind power, David could still reach Celia’s side in a flash, but the crowd between them would be thrown into the air in the process.
Moreover, the consequence of being thrown into the air at high speeds by a humanoid tyrannosaurus like him would either be death or injury.
So, of course, David could not do that.
“Grandpa Sven, can you figure out what kind of weightless technique this is?” Elsa asked curiously.
Chapter 563
“I can’t tell. We have been hidden for hundreds of years. The Winters family was already hidden when I was born so how can I tell?” Sven shook his head with a wry smile and said. “It’s okay if you can’t. This is not important’. The important thing is that since David can use such a wonderful technique, it means that he is definitely not weak. Why can’t you sense his strength, Grandpa Sven?”
“That is what I am very puzzled about. Judging from the way he performed just now, his strength is definitely not bad, and at such a young age, his talent is unique. But I can’t feel it at all, which shows that he should have a way to conceal his true strength.”
“Grandpa Sven, you just said that David was just a normal guy and told me that I don’t need to waste time on him,” Elsa said with a smile.
“I’m getting old, the world belongs to the young people now. Troubled times are coming, and your generation is indeed a generation of heroes. Indeed, there are always people who are better than you,” Sven had no choice but to sigh ruefully.
The kid he regarded as an ordinary person suddenly displayed such speed.
It was enough to shock him.
Elsa looked at David’s figure on the big screen and smiled without saying a word.
She had to get David on the Winters family’s side. This was the first man she had ever fancied.
Her status destined her to never marry out of her family during her lifetime, so she could only find a more pleasing man to marry into the Winters family.
That was fine.
As the future head of the Winters family, she could choose her future husband.
Unlike other women who did not even have the right to choose their own partner.
This was also the source of motivation for her efforts.
If she did not work hard and lost her status as the first heir, she would be used by the family as a tool for cooperation and marriage, just like her cousin, Gina.
As for David’s current girlfriend and his young age, in her opinion, they did not matter at all.
She believed that although she was nearly ten years older than David, she was well maintained enough, so she was no worse than other women in their twenties. Moreover, she was less youthful and more mature than them, so she should be pretty attractive to any man.
In the impending troubled times, it was important to have a strong background, and she believed that David would be the right choice for this.
Now, Elsa’s only concern was David’s background.
If the power behind David was equal to her family and David was the first heir, the possibility of recruiting David would be almost zero.
However, as long as one of the two conditions was not met, she still had a chance. She just had to pay a price.
“Elsa, do you fancy this David person?” Sven asked suddenly.
“So what if I do? Grandpa Sven, don’t I have the right to choose my own partner?” Elsa did not refute but admitted magnanimously.
“Let’s not talk about the fact that this kid already has a girlfriend, Elsa, you have to know that the power behind someone like David may not be as simple as you think since they could cultivate a talent like David. Although you have the right to arrange your own marriage, you can only recruit a live-in son-inlaw into the Winters family. If David has a deep background, he might not be suitable. No entity will send its outstanding children to other people’s homes,” Sven said.
“Grandpa Sven, don’t worry. I’ll handle it well. Plus, we still don’t know what background David has.
What if he’s an orphan and has a very powerful master? Who can be sure?” Elsa said.
This was also a problem that she was worried about,
However, she would not give up. David was the first man that she had ever fancied and not felt disgusted with in so many years.
“It’s good that you understand. I’m just reminding you. You need to be well-prepared for certain things in case you’re caught off guard.”
“I got it, Grandpa Sven.”
“I like this kid too. If we can get him to join the family then, of course, it’d be great.
Plus, heroes come from troubled times. They don’t just come from big forces, they can also come from small forces.”
“Thank you, Grandpa Sven! I’ll work hard!” Elsa said seriously as she looked at David’s figure on the big screen.
Chapter 564
David took Celia home, greeted Mindy and Jon, then left.
He was not going to live at Celia’s house today because he was heading back to South River Province early the next morning.
While he was leaving, David remembered that when he was talking to Elsa alone today, he sensed some vague energy with his strong mind power.
Although the other party was well hidden, he still could not escape the detection of David’s powerful mind power.
He should be a master that was halfway to the God Rank, and there was only a wall between them.
It was reasonable for a master who was halfway to the God Rank to be at this kind of joint party.
However, why did Elsa go so far as to bring him into that room?
Maybe she wanted that master that was halfway to the God Rank to probe him?
However, even Mason could not discover the hidden features of the system.
That person was just halfway to the God Rank, so how would he discover David’s true strength? Wait.
David suddenly recalled…
What if Elsa was trying to test him, and after the master who was halfway to the God Rank of the Winters family did not find anything, she asked the server to slip on purpose and pour the red wine in his hand onto Celia. Coincidentally, he saw it and they were testing his reaction…
If he really could not save Celia at that time, then there should be someone next to Celia who would help her block the flying tray and red wine glasses.
No wonder there was a first-class master beside her when he rescued Celia.
That was someone who would rescue Celia if he was really too late to help her.
Hence, it meant that the scene of him saving Celia had been filmed by the surveillance camera. Elsa would definitely slow down and study the footage after he left. Therefore, his strength should have been exposed by now.
Back then, the speed that he could achieve with his full strength and the assistance of his powerful mind power was absolutely impossible for someone who was halfway to the God Rank.
Thus, if they compared it, they would find that his strength was beyond a master who was halfway to the God Rank.
Furthermore, the only rank that was above that was that of a God Rank guardian.
David did not expect the first person to know that he had become a God Rank guardian to be Elsa. Even Mason did not realize that he had broken through, and now, Elsa found out after some probing Elsa was truly something else.
As expected of a woman who could become the first heir of the Winters family.
Her means, temperament, and strength were all excellent.
Plus, she already had a backup plan. Even if David found out now, he would not do anything to her.
After all, she did not do anything to hurt Celia.
Even if he could not rescue Celia in time, someone would have blocked the red wine and saved Celia.
David suddenly felt that he was still too inexperienced.
His strength upgraded too quickly during this period, and this made him feel that if he was strong enough, he could unveil all kinds of crafty plots and machinations.
All crafty plots and machinations were nothing in the face of absolute strength.
However, he forgot that he had not reached this point yet, and he could not suppress others with just his power alone.
If he thought about it carefully, he should have been able to predict Elsa’s plan.
However, he was too careless and he did not think about it at all. That was why he only realized after it had happened.
It seemed that he had to pay more attention in the future from here on out.
Before he had absolute power, he should use his brain more. He would regard this incident as Elsa teaching him a lesson.
‘Whatever, just expose my strength!’
Chapter 565
Elsa would not spread this information, and she will definitely increase her efforts to urge him to cooperate with the Winters family.
However, David did not really want to cooperate with the Winters family.
David did not like a woman who was as cunning as Elsa.
It would be very tiring to deal with her.
He still preferred a girl like Celia who was simple, cute, and not cunning.
The next day…
David left Capital City by plane early in the morning and returned to River City in South River Province.
After getting off the plane, David went straight to River City Hospital.
Although Sandy did not have a chance to tell David on the phone where Charles and Old Master Luther were hospitalized the day before, David suspected that it was probably River City Hospital.
At River City Hospital, David went directly to Director Tom’s office.
David did not bother to knock on the door, instead, he just pushed the door open and went in.
With the improvement of his status, David had been slowly adapting to this change.
Tom was just the director of the hospital, so he was not worthy of David’s politeness.
With his current status as a member of the Somerland Parliament, David could even completely ignore Cade, the cabinet minister of South River Province.
When David pushed open the door and went in, Tom, the director of the hospital, was burying his head in a book.
After hearing the sound of the door opening, Tom did not look up, but instead, he said in a majestic
voice, “Who told you to come in without knocking? Go out and knock first!” He was always a man whose words carried enormous weight in the hospital.
No one had ever entered his office without knocking.
Of course, it was not that there were no big shots who came to the hospital, but he would be notified of the big shots in advance and he would often go out to meet them.
“Dr. Lake, long time no see,” David said.
Tom raised his head to look at David.
“M-Mr. Lidell?” Tom asked with uncertainty.
“Yes, it’s me. I didn’t expect you to still remember me, Dr. Lake.”
Tom got up from his seat at once. Then, he walked out quickly, speaking as he walked,“ Why didn’t you notify me in advance, Mr. Lidell? Please take a seat! Please take a seat!”
David was someone he could not afford to offend as he had a close relationship with the Luther family. Although he heard that the Luther family had been a little shaky recently, they were still not someone he could offend as a hospital director.
“You’re too kind, Dr. Lake. I just came to ask if Charles and Old Master Luther are here,” David said. “Mr. Luther and Old Master Luther are staying in our hospital.”
“How are they doing now?”
“Mr. Luther just suffered some internal injuries, but it’s not serious. He should be able to be discharged in two days. It’s just that Old Master Luther’s old injury has recurred. In addition to his old age, he may not have much time left. We did our best as well.”
“Take me to see them,”
“Of course, Mr. Lidell, please come with me.”
After that, Tom led the way as David followed him.
When they arrived at Charles’ high-end ward, David could hear Sandy’s chattering voice inside.
“Mr. Lidell, Mr. Luther is here. I won’t disturb you anymore,” Tom said respectfully.
“Thank you, Dr. Lake,” David replied politely.
“You’re welcome, it’s no trouble at all. I’ll get going then.” After Tom said that, he left.
David pushed open the door of Charles’ ward gently.
Then, he saw Sandy busying herself next to Charles’ bed like a girl next door.
She did not look like the previous delinquent anymore.
After being criticized by David, Sandy completely changed herself. She changed from a mischievous and willful problematic girl to a sensible and obedient girl next door.
Chapter 566
David’s arrival immediately caught the attention of Charles, who was on the hospital bed.
“Dave!” Charles exclaimed in surprise.
“Charles, long time no see!” David also said with a smile.
At this time, Sandy turned to look at David, and suddenly called out in surprise, “ Dave?” “Sandy, long time no see. You finally grew up,” David said with emotion.
He really did not expect Sandy to change so much. She was like a different person now.
This change was not only in her outfit but also her personality.
David had a whole new level of respect for her.
“Dave, you are finally here!”
Sandy immediately put down the apple she was peeling and ran over to hug David.
At this moment, Sandy finally could not hold back her emotions, and tears fell from her eyes.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl like her could hardly bear what she had gone through in the past few days.
Her brother was injured and had been hospitalized, while her grandpa was in the intensive care unit. Her relatives, including her irresponsible parents, did not come to the hospital to visit them immediately, but instead, they were planning how to divide the family property after the death of the old man.
She knew that she could not cry. She had to be strong and could not let her brother and grandpa see her cry as it would only cause them trouble.
However, the moment she saw David, she could not control herself any longer.
Besides her brother and grandpa, David was the person she trusted the most in this world.
David patted Sandy’s back lightly, letting the girl hug him and cry.
He knew that Sandy was under a lot of pressure these days.
He also knew of Sandy’s admiration for him.
However, this was destined to not end well because he already had Celia.
To be honest, Sandy was just like Celia.
He came forward and saved both of them during the most critical moment. Then, he left a deep impression on both girls.
He thought it would fade with time.
However, he could tell that even time could not get rid of something that was so deeply rooted in the deepest part of someone’s heart. He saw this firsthand with Celia.
He could not avoid it this time either.
He felt that he should find a time and explain this to Sandy. However, he could not do it right now.
‘Sigh, I’ll think about this in the future.’
David did not know how to explain this to the obedient little girl.
He needed to find a day to bring Celia over to meet Sandy.
When the time came, she should understand.
Perhaps she would back off after finding out.
Charles did not disturb Sandy.
After a few minutes…
Sandy stopped crying and let go of David with a blush on her face.
At this moment, Charles said, “Dave, sorry for that. This girl has been under a lot of stress these two days. It’s all my fault as her brother.”
“It’s fine. I know. Just let her vent, if not, it’ll be bad for her health,” David said.
“Dave, Sandy told you, right?”
“Charles, we’re friends. Plus, Old Master Luther helped me so much back then. So what happened? Why can’t you tell me?” David said accusingly.
“Dave, it’s nothing. I can handle it.”
“Charlie, you’re lying. Those people said Grandpa is going to die soon and they’re going to divide the family property. They even said the Luther family offended some big shots and they want to flee after dividing everything,” Sandy immediately retorted.
“Charles, what happened?” David asked.
“It’s fine, really. My grandpa’s health is getting worse, so they think our family is going to collapse. That’s why they’re getting ready to come and get the benefits,” Charles said.
Chapter 567
“What about your injuries?”
“They’re from the Alton family in River City. They found a new backing recently and they want to control
River City. Hence, my family was naturally their primary target.”
“Control River City? How dare this family says something as preposterous as that. Won’t Cade stop them?”David asked with some doubt.
“If it’s just the Alton family, Mr. Nelson could naturally deter ther, but the backer the Alton family has found this time is very strong, so even Mr. Nelson does not dare to offend them,” Charles said helplessly.
“Cade doesn’t dare to offend them? Are they from a hidden family?” David asked.
“Yes, they are the Nichols family, and they are terrifyingly strong. Now almost all the families in River
City dare not speak out against them.”
“How terrifying are they?” David asked curiously.
“It’s said that the Nichols family has a few very strong peak Dragon Rankers, and there are more than one of them,” Charles said bitterly.
A peak Dragon Ranker!
His grandfather was only a peak Tiger Ranker in his heyday. There was a difference as big as a realm between the two and that difference could be described as the difference between heaven and earth. Moreover, according to what his grandfather said, even the perverts in the Special Task Force Team A were only masters in the beginner and middle stages of the Dragon Rank.
When it came to a peak Dragon Ranker, it was possible only the leader of Team A possessed such strength.
That was why he stopped Sandy from telling David of this.
It was because the opponent was too strong.
He did not think that David had the strength to compete with the opponent, so even if he got himself involved in this, it would just be a death sentence.
Hence, he refused to tell David.
In the end, he did not expect Sandy to steal his phone and call David while he was sleeping.
Now that David was here, he could only tell David as it is.
Even if David distanced himself after knowing the truth, he would not blame David.
After all, in the face of such a powerful enemy, they did not even have the slightest chance of winning. If David encountered such an enemy, he could only choose to stand idly by for the sake of the Luther family, or secretly provide some support that was within his capacity.
It was not that he was afraid of death, but it was because he could not ignore the entire Luther family. David was obviously taken aback when he heard Charles’ answer.
‘More than one peak Dragon Ranker?
‘The Nichols family is really… um… so powerful!’
They were so powerful that he felt that he could destroy them with one finger. 1 It might not even take a finger.
With just one word, the Nichols family, a family so powerful and terrifying in Charles’ eyes, would be wiped out without leaving even a single speck of dust left behind.
‘This hidden family does not even have someone who’s halfway to the God Rank and they dare to call themselves powerful?
‘This is simply ridiculous!
‘No wonder they only dare to resurface in a remote place like South River Province.’ After Charles said that, he observed David’s reaction.
Even though he did not think that David would help him, he still had a very slight hope that a miracle would happen.
In the end, after he saw how stunned David was, the last ounce of hope in his heart was destroyed.
He sighed helplessly in his heart.
Indeed, David was stunned by how powerful they were.
How would Charles know that David was stunned not because of how strong the other party was, but because of how weak they were.
A peak Dragon Ranker was nothing to him.
He could destroy them with a wave of a finger or a flick of his wrist.
Chapter 568
“Dave, actually, you don’t need to do this. Although the Nichols family is powerful, we’re in Somerland’s territory after all and they don’t dare to go too far. Worse comes to worst, the Luther family will give up most of our benefits. It’ll be fine if we just keep our foundation,” Charles said. When he heard Charles say that, David knew he had misunderstood.
.
“Charles, you should have told me earlier. You are my friend and Old Master Luther was also kind to me, so I will definitely help you in this!” David said seriously.
“Dave, you…”
“Charles, don’t worry. From now on, I, David Lidell, will protect the Luther family. No matter in River City or South River Province, or even in the whole of Somerland, no one will dare to touch you. The Nichols
family is nothing in my eyes. I can wipe them out with a wave of my hand.”
After David finished speaking, he was afraid that Charles would not believe him.
He showed Charles a little of his strength and immediately, David became very domineering.
Charles stared at David with a stunned expression…
Although he was not very talented in martial arts and he was still only a second-class martial artist, this did not stop what he saw.
The show of strength that David had just displayed was definitely far beyond his grandfather’s.
Furthermore, even though what David just said was a little far-fetched, his tone was very convincing.
Charles thought David was bragging, but still believed him a little.
This contradictory feeling made him confused as to how to answer David for a while.
Sandy, on the other hand, looked at David with admiration on her face.
This was the kind of man she liked.
He was so handsome, so domineering!
When David saw Charles not reacting, he asked, “Do you not believe me?” “I…” Before Charles could finish, Sandy moved one step ahead of him.
“I do! I do! David, I believe you! I knew you’d save us!” Sandy cried happily at one side.
David was omnipotent in her heart.
If David said he could pick the star from the night sky, Sandy might even believe him.
When a girl in love met the person she liked, her IQ would usually dip in the negatives.
“Dave, thank you!” Charles said sincerely.
He was sincerely thanking David. It did not matter if he could follow through with it or not.
If others heard about such a powerful opponent, they might have fled early on.
He had come across too many of these situations in these few days.
Even some people with direct relationships with the Luther family, including his father, were urging the family to divide the wealth. After they got the money, they would flee on their own.
No one ever mentioned that they would pull together and live or perish alongside the Luther family. “Charles, you don’t have to be so polite with me. Have a good rest. I’ll go visit Old Master Luther. Maybe I can save him,” David said.
“Really?”
“Really?”
Charles and Sandy cried at the same time.
This statement from David excited them even more.
Compared to the survival of the Luther family, the siblings hoped for their grandfather to get through this period even more.
It was because Charles and Sandy’s parents’ relationship was not good. They got married for the sake of an alliance and they had other people they loved back then.
Hence, after they gave birth to Charles and Sandy, they never paid attention to them. The siblings had been living with Old Master Luther this whole time.
This was why the siblings did not have a good relationship with their irresponsible parents at all. On the contrary, they were very close to Old Master Luther.
If they could choose between the Luther family and Old Master Luther, they would definitely choose Old Master Luther and hope for him to power through this. They would be fine even if the Luther family was destroyed.
They did not like anyone else in the family except for Old Master Luther anyway.
They only knew interest and money.
The old master was in the intensive care unit of the hospital at that moment.
However, none of the other members of the Luther family had visited or cared about him.
Right now, they must have been thinking about how to get more benefits before the Luther family fell from grace.
Chapter 569
“I won’t know until I see him, but I am at least 80% sure,” David said confidently.
Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine was no joke.
This was a skill that took him 3000 lavish points to learn.
He could even save Mason, an old man whose organs had failed and was already on the brink of death, let alone Old Master Luther.
He was only seventy or eighty years old, so it was not his time yet.
His current situation should be caused by his old injury from back then.
As long as he healed Old Master Luther’s internal injuries from the past, there should be no problem. However, David still needed to take a look at him as quickly as possible because he could not bring the dead back to life.
“David, let’s go. I’ll take you to see my grandpa,” Sandy urged.
Upon hearing this, Charles quickly got up from the hospital bed and said, “I’m going too! I’m going too!” “Charles, you should rest. Sandy can bring me.” David stopped him.
“Yeah, Charlie, you should rest first. I’ll bring David,” Sandy also said.
“This is about Grandpa’s life. You guys should just let me go. I’ll feel even worse lying on this bed, and I am fine now.”
“Slow down then,” David said.
He also saw Charles’ injury.
He must have been kicked in the chest, causing three broken ribs.
After a few days of treatment, he should be fine, but he needed to pay attention to his injuries for now.
Sandy heard what David said and immediately stepped forward to support Charles.
The trio then headed to the intensive care unit where Old Master Luther was located together.
“Charles, how old is Old Master Luther this year?” David asked as they walked.
“My grandpa will be 80 next week,” Sandy took the initiative to answer first.
“80? Isn’t your family celebrating his birthday for him?” David asked curiously.
“Dave, how are we going to celebrate when my grandpa’s in this state?” Charles answered with a bitter smile.
David thought about it and figured he was right.
Old Master Luther was still in the intensive care unit so he surely could not celebrate.
However, David felt that they could make use of this birthday celebration.
He would treat Old Master Luther and then using the excuse of celebrating his birthday for him, he would invite all the powerful forces in South River Province.
Since the Alton family and Nichols family wanted to control River City, they would definitely not give up on this opportunity.
When the time came, David would directly destroy the two families.
That way, they would solve the matter surrounding the Luther family.
Plus, he would be getting this done once and for all so, in the future, there would be no forces in South River Province that dared to take action against the Luther family.
‘Alright, it’s settled then.’
“Charles, you should be discharged in two to three days, right?” David asked.
“I guess so,” Charles answered.
“When the time comes, you should send out invitation cards to everyone, make use of Old Master
Luther’s birthday and get every powerful force in South River Province to come over.”
“Dave, why do you want me to do that?”
“Do you think the Alton and Nichols family will miss out on the chance to celebrate Old Master Luther’s birthday?”
“No, they will definitely not waste the chance for the entire South River Province to witness their strength. Plus, they will also step on my family to get to the top of South River Province.”
“It’ll be fine as long as those two families are coming. Just leave the rest to me. The Luther family will soon stand on the top of South River Province once again!”
“Dave…”
“Charles, please trust me.”
“Alright, I trust you.”
Chapter 570
The three of them went to the intensive care unit where Old Master Luther was.
Through the window, Sandy saw Old Master Luther with an oxygen mask attached to his face. Then, tears started to fill her eyes again.
She had been living with her grandfather and brother since she was young. So, these two people were the closest to her.
She must feel horrible now seeing her grandfather in this state.
David quickly comforted her, “Sandy, don’t worry, I’ll save your grandpa.” He could not stand this little girl crying.
“Okay, thank you, David.” Sandy looked at David and said with her eyes filled with emotions.
David shifted his gaze away from Sandy, feeling a headache coming.
He wondered kf this little girl fall even harder for him after he saved Old Master Luther and the Luther family.
‘It’s very possible, but I can’t just stand idly by in this situation. ‘What should I do?’ David felt troubled.
Very troubled!
Right now, he felt that it was not good for someone to be too excellent.
He could reject some people firmly, and yet, he could not do the same for others.
Sandy was one of the others.
‘Whatever, I won’t think about it anymore.
‘Just let nature take its course.’
Right now, the hidden sects and families were frequently resurfacing.
There were also a lot of talented children among those sects and families, just like Lorraine and her seniors whom he met last time. They were considered geniuses even among the geniuses.
It was possible that Sandy might meet someone she liked one day in the future.
“Dave, are you… confident about this?” Charles asked as well.
“It should be fine. Don’t worry.”
After David said that, he was about to open the door to go inside to visit the old master. He could not see anything outside with the glass between them.
However, they were quickly stopped by someone.
“Hey, who are you guys? What are you trying to do? Do you know this is the intensive care unit? You can’t go in,” an obedient-looking adorable nurse walked over and said overbearingly.
She was away for a while just now because she needed to use the toilet. When she came back, she saw that someone was trying to go inside the intensive care unit.
If something happened to the patient, it would mean that she had failed to carry out her duty.
She could not afford to bear the responsibility for this and she might end up losing her job.
She finally got a chance to do an internship here and she was going to obtain a full-time contract soon.
So, she could not allow anything to go wrong.
“We’re the patient’s family and we want to see how he is,” David explained.
“Family? Even if you’re family, you can’t break the rules of the hospital. The patients in the intensive care unit might face life-threatening dangers at any minute. Can you bear the responsibility if something happens?” The nurse did not give them a chance to discuss this at all.
“Miss, please let David inside to look at my grandpa. He said he can save my grandpa,” Sandy pleaded at one side.
“Little girl, you have to believe in science and you can’t be fooled by others. Even though some men look handsome, they often target and trick minors like you who have no experience in society. Hence, you have to be careful,” the nurse advised.
“Miss, David is not a scammer,” Sandy said firmly.
“You little dummy, of course, a scammer won’t say that they are a scammer. I’ve had a lot of experience, so trust me. I won’t lie to you.”
“Charles, just call Tom over. If not, we won’t be able to go in,” David said.
“Alright.” As Charles said that, he took out his phone and was about to call the director of River City Hospital, Tom Lake.
“It’s useless no matter who you call. Aside from the doctor and nurses, no one can go into the intensive care unit,” the nurse said righteously.
“Pretty lady, are you a new intern?” David asked curiously.
“Who are you calling a pretty lady? So what if I’m new? Don’t look down on newbies. Listen to me, I’m going to obtain my full-time contract soon so please don’t cause trouble for me.”
“You’re indeed new. No wonder you don’t even know who Tom Lake is.” “Who is Tom Lake?”
