LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

As Jun Chester walked towards the bed, the room fell silent once again. However, the other women in the room had varying expressions. Cecelia Garner suddenly followed and said with a complex expression, “I’m afraid we can’t save her this time.”

Jun Chester was puzzled and asked, “Why?”

Cecelia Garner glanced at Vita, then said, “Ask her.”

Upon hearing this, Vita almost lowered her head to her chest, looking extremely guilty. Jun Chester, still puzzled, did not rush to question Cecelia Garner and Vita, but instead reached out to check Iris Garner’s pulse.

Although extremely weak, it was indeed present, and Jun Chester softly said two words.

“It’s possible.”

The room grew even quieter. Jun Chester looked at Cecelia Garner and asked, “Where is the juice of the Tian Luo Grass?”

Cecelia Garner immediately took out a small porcelain bottle from her waist pouch.

Jun Chester sighed with relief and joked, “With your gloomy looks, I thought someone had stolen the juice of the Tian Luo Grass!”

Cecelia Garner sighed and said, “Although we have the juice of the Tian Luo Grass, we are still missing something.”

Jun Chester inquired, “What is it?”

Cecelia Garner replied in a low mood, “The thousand-year fire amber.”

Jun Chester questioned, “And where is it?”

Cecelia Garner’s emotions were low as she answered, “Only you can provide it. Over the years, the Department of Geology has provided a lot, and apart from storing some in the Lordran pharmacy, the rest have been stored in the Hyuny Temple by me.”

Regardless of Cecelia Garner’s reaction, Vita suddenly knelt down.

“I’m sorry, Jun the Accursed.”

Jun Chester suddenly had a bad feeling and asked sternly, “What’s wrong?”

Vita, head still down, tremblingly replied, “Before you healed my legs, I took the thousand-year fire amber stored in the Hyuny Temple without permission and used it to treat my legs. As a result, it had no effect due to the lack of the thousand-year ice amber’s cooperation.”

Jun Chester was speechless.

But fortunately, there were still some in the Lordran pharmacy.

Jun Chester spoke coldly, “Quickly inform the head of the pharmacy at Lordran to send over the thousand-year fire amber.”

Vita suddenly bowed again. “The pharmacy’s supply of the thousand-year fire amber has also been exhausted.”

At this, the room fell into a deathly silence.

Jun Chester, though angry, suddenly realized something and coldly questioned, “How did you know that in order to save my stepmother, we needed both the thousand-year ice amber and the thousand-year fire amber to enhance her meridians using the juice of the Tian Luo Grass to awaken her?”

Vita admitted her mistake, “I read your medical book.”

Jun Chester furrowed his brow, “So what? Even though you knew how important the thousand-year fire amber was, you still used it all?”

Vita was close to tears, “I thought the Department of Geology at Lordran would continuously provide it, so I didn’t think too much about it.”

Jun Chester clenched his fists tightly, almost exploding in rage. Vita added, “The thousand-year ice amber that was once held in your biological mother’s mouth is also about to lose its effect. When that happens, your stepmother will inevitably deteriorate. I didn’t expect the consequences to be so severe. I’m to blame!”

Jun Chester gritted his teeth, “Are you a fool?”

Vita, teary-eyed, replied, “Yes, I am a fool!”

Jun Chester suddenly closed his eyes. He had never been so angry before. Just as he was about to awaken his stepmother, such a thing happened!

At that moment, Lyvia Harding suddenly appeared and took out a thousand-year ice core from her pocket, asking, “Is this what you call the thousand-year ice amber?”

Everyone’s eyes, except Jun Chester’s, turned to Lyvia Harding. Everyone was shocked, especially Cecelia Garner, whose eyes widened.

“The… thousand-year ice core! So many of them!”

The roles of the thousand-year ice core and the thousand-year ice amber were quite different. The former was extremely cold, while the latter was only slightly cold. The effects of the two were drastically different.

Lyvia Harding’s hand had so many thousand-year ice cores that Vita remained kneeling in shock for a long time before tremblingly asking, “Where did you get this?”

Just as Lyvia Harding was about to say something, Jun Chester angrily interrupted, “It doesn’t matter how much of this we have. Without the assistance of the thousand-year fire amber, this thing is no use!”

Jun Chester pointed at Vita, seething with rage, “With your mentality, what makes you think you can lead the Pinkriver Temple of Emei? You’re all brawn and no brains!”

Vita had no temper to be scolded. Jun Chester suppressed his anger and approached Lyvia Harding. He took a grain of the thousand-year ice core from her hand forcefully. Lyvia Harding was too scared to say anything.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Then, Jun Chester went to the bedside, removed the thousand-year ice amber from Iris Garner’s mouth, and stuffed the grain of the thousand-year ice core into it. He then put it back into Iris’s mouth.

Immediately, Iris began to emit coldness all over her body, with her complexion becoming even paler. In that moment, Jun Chester directed a surge of heat into her forehead.

However, Iris was after all just an ordinary woman who had been in a coma for twenty years. Her meridians were already fragile, and Jun Chester’s intention was to use the combined cold and fire energy from the thousand-year ice amber and the thousand-year fire amber to strengthen her meridians before nourishing her with the juice of the Tian Luo Grass, allowing her body to endure the pain of applying acupressure.

But now, it was evident that nothing was as simple as imagined. Nevertheless, with each exertion of aid by Jun Chester, Iris began to change. Her body began to convulse as if electrocuted. Her face showed veins, indicating that her pure white face might crack at any moment.

The scenario was akin to a giant dragon imparting its energy to a tiny ant. However, the ant’s constitution was too weak to withstand such powerful energy. Yet, Iris still opened her eyes.

Cecelia Garner and the others also widened their eyes in astonishment. This… How could she have woken up?
