Chapter 55 - Revival
Chapter 55: Revival
“Forget it! Suit yourself.”
Grant waved his hand.
Cole walked toward the little girl.
Under the woman’s shocked gaze, he administered acupuncture to the little girl.
The heaven-defying fate-changing technique was snatching the life force of the world.
In it were three needles: one to fix the body; one for the soul; and the last for the mind.
Correspondingly, the practitioner had to expend all his strength to snatch life for it.
After placing the three needles, Cole was exhausted and drenched in sweat.
The little girl’s face quickly regained its color.
The woman at the side went from shock to disbelief, then broke into tears.
She knelt in front of Cole and kowtowed three times.
However, Cole and Grant no longer had the time to care about the woman.
Cole’s face was as pale as paper. All the strength in his body had left, and his body was on the verge of collapse.
Seeing this scene, the woman burst into tears.
So this young man had paid such a heavy price to save her daughter.
“Steady.”
Grant’s expression was solemn as he hurriedly supported Cole.
“Master, I’m fine, but I can feel that the backlash is coming.” Cole’s lips were already purple and black. “All my memories of medicine have dissipated. I can’t remember how to use the Soul Stabilizer anymore.”
“Don’t speak.” Grant gathered his true energy.
“It’s okay. I should be back to normal after my true energy dissipates,” Cole said.
Grant performed a check on Cole. What he saw left him relieved. “Fortunately, it’s only the lightest price.
“The heaven-defying fate changing technique is born from the dragon vein, so the oath is naturally restrained by the dragon’s energy.
“If in the future, you can find a rare treasure that contains dragon’s energy, after you use death to remove the Medical Oath, the dragon’s energy can save your life.”
Grant shook his head.
In this era, finding treasures that contained the dragon’s energy was too difficult.
“It’s nothing. Medical skills don’t matter to me. It’s just a pity that I can’t take over Master’s mantle.”
Cole smiled. His eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and they were gradually closing.
“It’s not a big problem for Master.”
Grant shook his head and looked at Cole Stone. Sighing, he said, “Take a nap. You’ll be fine when you wake up.”
Cole closed his eyes and fell into darkness.

The next day.
“I’ll take you in as my student, but I won’t teach you any medical skills. There are opportunities in this world. Go down the mountain.”
Grant smiled at him.
“You have tricked me?”
Cole, who was standing at the foot of the mountain, looked at Grant in confusion.
At this moment, all the memories he had of Grant were only those of Grant leading him up the mountain the day before. And when Cole woke up, he found himself lying at the foot of the mountain.
What’s going on?
“How can you call it a trick when it’s a matter of mutual consent? Leave!” Grant waved his hand. “If we’re fated, we will meet again, I’m leaving too.”
Then…
Grant left elegantly. He ran.
Cole: “…”
Why not just fly away?
***
The memory stopped there.
At this moment, Cole finally understood what had happened to him.
He had originally planned to commit suicide to resolve Cara’s predicament.
However, by accident, he had used his life to remove the Medicine Oath, and as a result, all of his lost memories had returned.
At his moment of death, the ring on his finger had helped him survive.
This was a rare treasure that contained the dragon’s energy.
It sounded a little unbelievable.
However, since he had already gotten back his memories, he understood that Dragon’s energy was energy from the chosen ones of the imperial throne.
The royal family had the dragon vein, so they naturally had the dragon’s energy.
The dragon’s energy came from people who were born to uphold the heavens.
Not every king could have the dragon’s energy; only those who had created a prosperous era could.
Cole guessed that if he was not wrong, Cara’s ring should have been passed down from the ancient sovereign.
Perhaps, a king had given the ring to the Williams family.
How fortunate!
He was really fortunate.
It could be said that after thousands of years of wear and tear, the dragon’s energy that remained in the ring today was rare.
That was why Cole was fortunate to get a ring with Dragon’s energy.
When the memory stopped…
Cole’s consciousness started shaking.
It was as if a scorching wave of fire had attacked him, tearing apart all the chaos.
He suddenly opened his eyes!
***
Inside the hospital ward…
Boom!
The palm with the ring slapped down. With that slap, the recovered strength in Cole’s body instantly collapsed the bed under him.
“What’s going on?”
Shocked, Hugh hurriedly stood in front of Cara.
Kamila immediately pulled Cara in front of her.
They thought that someone was using Cole’s corpse as bait to kill Cara.
However, even after they raised their guards, no other movement happened in the ward.
“Help Cole up.”
Kamila said.
Hugh was about to step forward when…
A voice stunned everyone.
“Cough cough, Uncle Hugh, there’s no need.”
Cole pushed the bed away and stood up.
Kamila and Hugh stared at Cole in shock.
Cara’s pupils shrank in disbelief.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Cole bitterly smiled and patted his body.
This feeling made him uncomfortable. After retrieving his memories, he was especially dazed.
He felt as if he had been training on the mountain a moment ago, but the next moment, he had been stabbed in the factory as if he had traveled through time.
“Are… are you alright?” Hugh was stunned.
For the first time, he was frightened.
It was publicly acknowledged that the dead could not be resurrected.
But what’s going on?
“It’s a long story.” Cole touched his nose. “Actually, my second uncle taught me the method of faking my death. That knife didn’t really pass through my heart.”
He could only start making things up.
“What?”
Hugh and Kamila were stunned.
What kind of death faking method can make us all believe it?
Just then…
“Uncle Hugh, Aunty Lawson, leave first.” Cara, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, “I want to talk to Cole alone.”
“Okay.”
At her request, even though they were confused right now, the old couple decided to leave.
Splat!
The door closed.
Only Cara and Cole were left in the ward.
Looking at Cara, Cole felt a little speechless. He did not know where to start explaining.
However, Cara just looked at him quietly.
“Miss, Miss Williams, I…”
Cole could not take it anymore.
Silence!
Before Cole Stone could finish…
Cara stepped forward and slapped him.
Slap!
Cole was stunned.
The slap did not hurt, but it shocked him.
“Why did you do that?”
Cara stared at Cole. She gritted her teeth, and her eyes turned red.
Cole was about to explain but…
The next moment…
The ward fell silent.
Cara took a step forward and hugged Cole, her soft body falling into his arms.
Cole’s hand froze in the air.
He had nowhere to put it.
Cara remained silent.
However, Cole could feel that his shoulders were drenched in tears.
“I… I’m fine.”
Cole hesitantly placed his hand on Cara’s back and patted her.
Cara sobbed.
“Don’t do this again.”
At this moment, she was no longer the domineering Queen Williams.
