The Great Medical Saint

Did Matthew mention his weird habit before?

Ansel frowned, wondering if it was just him getting old. Why did this feel new to him? But he decided not to get hung up on it.

"Here's the profile of the Presetian Sect's successor. This covers everything you need to know about the Presetian Sect and the Harmona Sect. Feel free to complete the missions in any order you prefer."

After saying that, Ansel whipped out his phone and sent the information to Matthew.

Only then did Matthew get up. "Alright. I'll get going."

Matthew walked for a while when Ansel suddenly called out, "Be careful, Matthew. Stay safe."

Matthew stopped in his tracks. "Did you catch wind of something?"

Ansel flashed a knowing smile at him. "There's one important thing that comes before your ambition and your goal. Stay alive, and anything else is possible."

Hearing that, Matthew nodded. "Thank you."

...

In a card room at Silverbrook Village, Caleb played a six of spades.

Gareth Driscoll quickly snatched Caleb's six of spades like he didn't want to give Caleb a chance to take it back. With a smack, he laid down four of a kind on the table.

Then, the old man quickly showed his hand. "Four of a kind!"

The elderly spectators around the table clapped and cheered.

"Well played, Gareth. You're the first person to defeat this punk."

"No doubt you're the best card player in our village, Gareth. You're awesome." "We finally won one round. I was starting to think he was unbeatable."

Caleb piled up the cards in the middle. "Let's go for another game." His hands moved like a machine, shuffling the cards in a simple and robotic manner.

Gareth started drawing cards. Seeing Caleb was still shuffling, he reminded him, "Time to draw cards."

Only then did Caleb start drawing cards, but his expression was blank, like a zombie.

Everyone around him was clueless that his attention was already elsewhere. His mind was connected to dozens of cameras. Each one played out like a movie screen with its own story unfolding.

The first camera pointed at the entrance of Silverbrook Village. A woman in her 30s approached from a distance, holding onto an old. man's arm. When they reached an intersection, the woman withdrew her arm and moved a step away, putting some distance between herself and the old man.

When they got nearer to the camera, the woman stopped in her tracks. "You

should head back first, Mr. Copeland. Let's go home separately, or your son might get suspicious."noveldrama

Theron Copeland chuckled. "You're way too careful. He's probably still playing with his friends."

The woman rolled her eyes at Theron. "What about Mrs. Copeland?"

Theron replied with a grin, "She's back at her parents' place. I used to get annoyed when she went there and took our stuff away. But with. you around now, I wish she'd stay there all the time. Come on. Let's head home. I want to do it again."

The woman blushed. "How are you in such good shape, Mr. Copeland? Even your

son loses out to you."

The second camera was on a large tree, pointing at the road after entering the village. It also had a full view of the nearby houses. In the small house on the left, a woman took a shower in the bathroom and came out completely naked.

Under the sunlight, the water droplets slid down her smooth skin, each one sparkling with brilliance.

The third camera captured two students in uniforms making out in an alley. The male student reached his hand into her shirt and started having fun.

Someone walked by in the distance. The two quickly separated, chatting quietly as if nothing had happened. After the passerby left, they embraced each other again.
