Chapter 921 Truly Sinister Willard hesitated briefly at the request.

Admittedly, those ancient medical texts were so obscure that very few could decipher them.

For any ancient medical family, it was an invaluable treasure.

Evidently, it was somewhat inappropriate to allow outsiders to peruse their contents.

Willard found it hard to accept that, so he declined gently.

“Ms. Garcia, it’s not that I’m being stingy by not letting you read them. It’s just that those ancient medical texts are from a time far too distant. The recorded words are very much different from what we use now, and the content is far removed from modern medicine, having long been lost to time. Even if you look at it, it will be hard to understand and a waste of time and energy. I suggest that you propose a different request. Apart from this, I can fulfill whatever you want.”

Neera took a sip of water as she patiently listened to the end but had no intention of taking his advice.

“It’s precisely because the medical techniques recorded in those ancient texts have been lost over time that I wish to delve into them. Even if I can’t understand, I can still witness the mystery of ancient medicine, fulfilling a heartfelt desire.”

She remained firm, making it clear that that was her only condition.

After much hesitation, Willard finally gritted his teeth and said, “All right, I can agree to your terms, but an one condition, you must cure my illness.”

She probably won’t understand the texts anyway, so it’s not a loss for me.

Neera could discern his thoughts from the looks in his eyes, but she didn’t mind.

Raising an eyebrow, she didn’t promise him any guarantee.

“I’m not entirely confident, but since we’ve come this far in our conversation, I have nothing more to hide. I’m sure you’re aware of what’s inside you. It’s a wug. Since you know their unique nature, please don’t make this too difficult for me. I promise to do my best, but I can’t guarantee to cure you completely.”

Willard stared at her for a long time, then let out a deep sigh.

“You seem so innocent yet incredibly astute. No wonder ANXIN Group ended up in your hands.”

Neera smiled gracefully. “It’s all right. I don’t make promises without absolute certainty. I just speak the truth.”

At that point, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said, “Mr. Saunders, if you want me to cure you, you need to trust me completely. Can you please tell me how this wug comes into your body, and do you know what kind of wug it is?”

After a moment of contemplation, Willard revealed without hiding anything, “It was done by the past rivals of the Saunders family. It’s not some unfathomable wug, but a type wug pest.”

Speaking of the past, his aged face turned solemn.

“Many years ago, due to my carelessness, someone secretly planted this wug in me, and for a long time, I was unaware. By the time I realized something was wrong, the pest had already grown inside my body, feeding primarily on my blood every day. Moreover, this wug pest will gradually attach itself to my heart as time passes, slowly gnawing it away.”

In a sense, the wug pest was almost becoming one with his flesh and blood.

“In the past two years, I’ve thought of countless solutions and sought help from many renowned medical geniuses, but I’ve found no cure. If I forcefully remove it, I fear I might drop dead instantly.”

After hearing it all, Neera finally understood.

The wug pest has already become a part of this old man’s body. No matter what method is used, removing the wug pest will cause indescribable damage to his body. This method is truly sinister.

Fortunately, the time I spent immersed in research at the World Medical Alliance in the past few days was not wasted.

She quickly found some information related to the kind of wug in her mind.

She had come across it in an ancient medical text. It was a hemophilic wug.

Indeed, it’s a bit tricky to remove it completely, but not entirely impossible. All it takes is to confuse the wug pest, leading it to leave the dangerous area near the heart and subsequently remove it from the body. Of course, the method is not simple. The required medication should be administered, supplemented with therapeutic phlebotomy, and guided in a targeted manner. All in all, the treatment process is quite tedious. Moreover, there might also be some hidden risks and unexpected incidents from his physical constitution.

Reflecting on that, Neera preferred to stick to her previous statement without making any guarantees to Willard.

“I’ve got a general understanding of the situation. Now that we’ve decided on this, I’ll give it my all.

However, as for the specific treatment, we’ll need to conduct further examinations before making a final decision.
