Chapter 99 Bernard felt a chill running down his spine when he saw Andrew appear , as he realized that this man might actually be capable of curing Marks condition .


    Andrewpletely ignored the ongoing debate outside and proceeded to take out his silver needles , working swiftly to target several major pressure points around Marks body .


    Cedric watched intently from the side , hoping to learn something from Andrews technique .


    Such masterful needlework ! He instantly identified Mr.


    Thatchers condition and acted without hesitation .


    This young man truly has the skills of a legendary healer , he thought to himself , his desire to be Andrews apprentice growing stronger with each passing moment .


    After a few minutes of Andrews treatment , Mark regained consciousness .


    There are two conflicting energies remaining in Mr.


    Thatchers body , Andrew exined while continuing the treatment .


    If Im not mistaken , this was caused by an attack from a martial arts master , and based on how deeply these energies had settled , it must have happened at least three years ago .


    Mark , still slightly dazed , looked at Andrew in shock .


    Youre right .


    I was attacked by a mysterious person when I first took office in Jayrodale three years ago and was severely injured .


    But Dr.


    Aicker and Dr.


    Hackett have been treating me for years , and I thought I had recovered .


    How did you know about the attack ? Only a few people close to me knew about it .


    Not even Dr.


    Aicker was aware .


    If I can treat your condition , Mr.


    Thatcher , then identifying its cause isnt surprising , Andrew replied calmly .


    In fact , I noticed your life was at risk that day at the racetrack , but you wouldnt believe me , so I had no choice but to let it go .


    Mark looked embarrassed and said sheepishly , I apologize for my ignorance .


    Clearly .


    My pride got the better of me ! Cedric chimed in , Dr.


    Lloyd , I also detected these two conflicting energies throughout Mr Thatchers body .


    The problem is that this isnt a typical illness , so none of my usual treatments or medications had any effect .


    Do you have any other methods ? Andrew smiled .


    Its a given that your usual treatments wouldnt work .


    This isnt an illness its an internal injury from three years ago .


    Internal injury ? Cedric was surprised , having never considered this possibility .


    Andrew added , And its not just any regr internal damage .


    Otherwise , it wouldnt have remained in Mr.


    Thatchers body for three years with such powerful lingering effects .


    What kind of person could inflict such severe internal damage ? Cedric asked in amazement .


    At least a grandmaster level practitioner trained in energy maniption and can kill or  Chapter 99 injure without leaving visible marks , Andrew exined matter of factly .


    Mark was impressed .


    Every word youve said is spot on .


    The person who ambushed me was indeed a grandmaster .


    I took a direct hit from them , and while I thought I had survived it , I had no idea the effects were still so significant .


    Mr.


    Thatcher , please bear with some pain while I expel this toxic energy from your body , Andrew said .


    Dr.


    Lloyd , this was inflicted by a grandmaster , and its extremely dangerous .


    I havent been able to rid myself of it in three years .


    Are you sure you can handle it without being affected yourself ? Andrew chuckled .


    This is nothing to me !
