Chapter 1736
Confused by the p, Jimmy held the back of his head and was at a loss of what to do for a moment.
"I told you to get out. Didn''t you hear me?" Antonio roared.
Looking bewildered, Jimmy didn''t dare to disobey Antonio and could only leave the room sheepishly.
Antonio rose to his feet and paced to Matthew, giving him a once-over.
With a look of shock mixed with surprise in his eyes, he said tentatively, "Lad, could you… tell what my
illness is?"
Smiling, Matthew peered at the two men from the corners of his eyes, and Antonio understood what he
meant as he waved his hand.
"All of you, get out!"
After everyone had left, Antonio said anxiously, "Lad, there''s no one else around. You can speak with
me now."
Matthew smirked. "You''re not sick, Old Master Barrera."
If it was someone else who heard this, they would certainlysh out at him saying that he had no
medical knowledge. After all, the entire Stonedale knew that Antonio had been sick for years.
Despite that, Antonio was filled with surprise when he heard that.
"H-How did you know that, sir?" he asked in a low voice. Without him realizing, even the way he
addressed Matthew was more courteous now.
"Because you practiced a unique internal energy cultivation technique, it''s shing with the internal
energy skill you inherited from your family and the internal energy is now umted in your body,"
Matthew said.
Antonio''s eyes turned round andrge from staring, a look of disbelief all over his face. "H-How did you
know that?"
He had never told anyone something like this, and not even his family knew about this.
In the earlier years, in order to fight Macon, Antonio had specially searched for a powerful internal
energy cultivation technique and forced himself to practice it.
However, just as Matthew had said, this internal energy shed with the internal energy practiced by
the Barrera Family and turned him into his current state now.
As he didn''t dare to let others know what happened to him, he could only im that he was sick.
Even though he''d sought medical help everywhere, he didn''t dare to tell anyone what his actual
situation was. Therefore, his condition was never relieved for a long time. Instead, it was bing
more and more out of control, especially during nights with a full moon when both internal energies
were shing at their peak.
Whenever such nights came, his body would suffer from the cold poison, torturing him through the
night until the sun rose. So, he was especially frustrated every time this happened.
But I never told anyone about this. How did he know about this? Antonio wondered, looking at Matthew
with a glimmer of anticipation as well as wariness.
On the other hand, Matthew was very calm, saying softly, "By the way, Old Master Barrera. I haven''t
introduced myself yet. I''m Matthew Larson from Eastshire."
Shrugging, Matthew said, "Yes, that''s me."
The look in Antonio''s eyes turned cautious. "Wh-What are you doing here?!"
Matthew chuckled lightly. "Old Master Barrera, why are you so worked up? I''ve told you that I''m here to
treat you."
With a frown, Antonio repeated, "Treat me? Hmph, we''re unrted, but you specially came to treat

A light shed past Antonio''s eyes, but he immediately hid it from view.
