Eric noticed the spark in the doctor's eyes and nodded. "I understand, but the herbs can be quite pricey.""No worries," replied the doctor. "Even if they're a bit expensive, that's okay! Can you explain the treatment?"Eric was about to answer when the person next to the doctor subtly cleared their throat, a reminder of their mission against holistic medicine.The doctor snapped back to reality, his expression turning serious. "Hmph! This is nonsense! I know what you're after! You just want my money!"The holistic medicine community's representatives couldn't contain their laughter, leaving the doctor embarrassed."What you're saying isn't enough," the doctor said. "These are just theories. You must prove them through action!""Prove?" Eric asked."Yes," the doctor asserted. "Let's find a hospital in King City and have a competition. Whoever diagnoses and treats the most patients wins."Eric found it amusing. After all, this was his specialty.He nodded and agreed, "If you in

At the police station.Eric encountered the hitman from the previous night. The hitman's wounds had been treated, and he appeared less menacing than before. As the victim, Eric had the right to obtain some basic information.The hitman couldn't identify their employer but mentioned that they were likely in King City, and the bounty for killing Eric had reached a staggering 700,000 dollars."Fuck!" Matteo cursed. "700,000 dollars for Hol. Johnson's life? Who the heck values him so little?"The price infuriated Matteo because it seemed too low for a renowned healer like Eric.Nevertheless, this information was crucial for Eric, and he felt like he had walked into the other party's trap.The individual attempting to assassinate him and the mastermind behind discrediting holistic medicine might be one and the same. Eric couldn't determine who was behind it. It could be the Hernandeezs, but he lacked evidence.Javier had been extremely cautious in his actions, leaving no trace of the

Eric didn't rush back to Salt City because he hadn't finished his tasks in King City yet.The hospital competition had just ended. The veteran holistic physicians, who had gained a substantial advantage in the morning, still held their ground in the afternoon despite the absence of experienced practitioners.After a day of competition, the group of holistic physicians had built their confidence. Even without Eric's presence, everyone knew he was in King City, ready to step in at any moment. This time, the plan to discredit holistic medicine was destined to fail.-"He's good," Javier said, frowning. He had failed once again. Not only had he been unable to eliminate Eric, but the attempt to discredit the holistic medicine field had also failed.At that moment, Javier realized how little he and the Hernandezes knew about Eric. It seemed like Eric had appeared out of nowhere. Grace had visited Salt City twice, and suddenly Eric emerged. Javier had no information about Eric before thi

Alexander was at a loss for words. Thirty years had faded the once intense emotions. Grace and Julius were no longer the young couple in their 20s. Back then, they loved each other, and nothing else mattered.The present-day Grace clearly no longer had any interest in Julius, and Eric couldn't care less.After dinner, Eric went to Matteo's place to treat his injuries.While the silver needle was still in place, Matteo chuckled and remarked, "You really are the Hernandezes' bane. Their influence in the underworld has vanished, and I heard they lost a significant sum in the first underground match tonight."When the Hernandezes had sway in the underworld, they could manipulate match outcomes. However, times had changed.Eric was not well-versed in the underworld's matters in King City or Salt City. He had no response when he heard that the Hernandezes were facing setbacks and losses, puzzling Matteo.Logically, he should be delighted to hear such news, but Eric remained indifferent

Eric and Sylvia's days were pretty ordinary. After enjoying the wealthy lifestyle of a prominent family for decades, Sylvia loved the authenticity of their current life.After dinner, the couple returned to their room to rest.In the middle of the night, the phone suddenly rang.Eric quickly answered when he saw it was a call from Brook. "What's the matter, Brook?" he asked."Eric!" Brook sounded urgent. "Tiger is in trouble."Eric snapped awake instantly. Sylvia, disturbed, asked, "Eric, what's going on?""Brook just called," Eric replied. "He said Tiger is in trouble, so I need to go check it out.""I'll go with you!" Sylvia insisted.-After quickly preparing, the couple rushed to Tiger's residence. The area around Tiger's home was cordoned off, indicating something serious had happened.Eric, Sylvia, and Brook happened to arrive at the same time. Upon receiving the call, Brook had first informed Eric and then rushed there from the William residence.Without wasting much
