Chapter 487 Dead End
The Understated Dragon Lord
"What are you trying to say, Daniel?" Joshua asked coolly.
"What do I want to say? Joshua, you just made some comments. Surely you haven't forgotten, have
you? You wouldnât have us believe your memory is failing because of your age!"
"My memory is just fine!" Joshua retorted.
"Since your memory is good, then you should remember how you praised this country boy, right?
What did you call him? The greatest healer of all time?"
"My master is the greatest healer of all time. Is there a problem with that?"
"If he's the greatest healer of all time, as you say, then this country boy should be able to revive the
patient. Look closely, Joshua. Has the patient been revived? If it weren't for your endorsement of
this country boy, I'm sure The Matthews family would never have agreed to let him randomly stab
needles into the patient!"
Joshua didn't respond to Down but instead looked at Daniel and asked, "Master, may I examine the
patient again?"
"Of course."
Joshua wanted to examine Kind once more because he had noticed a change in Kind's complexion.
It was a positive change, not negative, but Joshua wasnât entirely sure, so he needed to check
again.
He placed his fingers on Kindâs wrist, conducting a thorough check. At first, there was no expression
on his face, but soon a hint of joy appeared, which then turned into concern, and his brows knotted
in confusion.
"How odd! This patientâs condition is so bizarre!" Joshua turned to Daniel with a puzzled expression.
"Master, whatâs going on?"
Daniel asked instead of answering, "What seems strange?"
"The patientâs body... at first, it felt like he had come back to life. But after checking for a while, it
seemed like a dying flash, as if he were close to passing away. Thatâs why Iâm uncertain!"
"Life and death hang on a single thought, depending on the patientâs own will. I've done what I can.
Whether he makes it through depends on Kind himself. If he survives this ordeal, Iâll administer the
final needle. If not, then it is his fate! We can only say he has reached a dead end."
Hearing Danielâs explanation, Jessica became anxious. "Idiot, didnât you say you could bring
Grandpa back? Now you're talking about a dead end. What do you mean?"
"I've done my best, and naturally, I want to save him and will do everything in my power. But if he
doesnât want to live, no amount of effort on my part can save him!"
"Why wouldn't Grandpa want to live?"
"With a grandson who wishes him dead, even if he wanted to live, he could very well be angered
back to death!"
To Pork, Daniel's words sounded like an excuse, a way to shift the blame for Kind's potential death
onto him. Pork was not a good man; he would deflect responsibility whenever he could and certainly
not accept blame that wasn't his, much less for something caused by a country bumpkin like Daniel.
So when Daniel finished speaking, Pork became enraged.
