The Luckiest Dumb Doctor

Chapter 589: Chapter 589: Pull One Hair and the Whole Body is Affected_1

At this moment, someone sneered, “So what if he’s entered the entry-level realm? What’s so great about that? It’s not like our eighteen cities are without their own entry-level practitioners.”

“Are you talking about Walter Locke?”

“Walter Locke has been in seclusion for several years now, and no one knows where he is. Where are we supposed to find him?”

“Where to find him isn’t important, what matters is our agreement with the Seven Provinces of Northwest.”

Hearing this, the others couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

In terms of industry, the Northwest has always been Jiangnan’s most formidable competitor. After years of conflict, we had finally managed to make the Northwest bow their heads.

Now that a practitioner has emerged in the Northwest capable of entering the entry-level realm, would the various families there be willing to keep their heads down?

Looking at the worried faces around him, Larry Duncan gave a cold laugh before speaking, “I think we should take the initiative to attack, keeping them too busy to look east.”

“You mean…”

“It’s quite simple,”

With a smile, Larry Duncan said, “We can just send someone to challenge their families.”

“Brilliant. Their masters were just cleaned out by Barry Wolfe. We can just send a couple of people to challenge them, and they won’t be able to cope.”

“If Barry Wolfe were to step in himself, it would be seen as bullying the weak. If he doesn’t, who in the Northwest could possibly stand in our way?”

Larry Duncan nodded with a smile, then added, “We also need to hurry and find Master Walter. We’ve supported him for so many years; we can’t just fail to find him when we need him, right?”

“Agreed, let’s do that.”

…

At Mystic City, in the Ning Family’s residence,

the Ning Family’s patriarch couldn’t help but glance toward Samantha Adams, who was watering the flowers in the yard, as he listened to his eldest son Andres Adams’s report.

“Samantha, come here for a moment.”

Setting down the watering can, Samantha approached with a smile, “Grandfather, did you need me?”

“Yes, sit.”

The Ning Family patriarch’s face showed a kind expression as he asked, “Samantha, your friend you mentioned last time, his name was Barry Wolfe, wasn’t it?”

“Are you referring to the ‘Miraculous Divine Doctor’?”

“Yes, him. And what was that nickname? The ‘Romantic Magician’?”

Puzzled, Samantha looked at her grandfather, “Grandfather, why are you suddenly asking about him?”

The Ning Family patriarch’s expression turned a bit more serious, “Do you know what cultivation realm your friend is actually in?”

“Cultivation realm?”

Samantha was even more surprised but answered truthfully, “It should be the Grandmaster, right?”

Concerned her grandfather might not believe her, she specifically explained, “I saw him take action when I was in Danu, and he definitely is a Grandmaster. Even though he’s still so young…”

The Ning Family patriarch waved his hand, “Samantha, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but the things you are talking about are already outdated.”

“What? What do you mean?” Samantha asked, bewildered.

With a wry smile, the Ning Family patriarch said, “Because your friend has actually become a practitioner of the entry-level realm.”

“An… entry-level practitioner? How is that even possible?”

Samantha was shocked; a Grandmaster in their twenties was surprising enough, let alone someone in their twenties who had entered the entry-level realm. Wasn’t that absurd?

How many entry-level practitioners were there in the entire country?

Weren’t they all above sixty years old?

“Samantha, your friend is now quite an influential figure. He has essentially become the master of the Seven Provinces of Northwest.”

“The Seven Provinces of Northwest…”

Samantha hadn’t recovered from the first shock when she was astonished again by her grandfather’s following words.

The Ning Family patriarch continued, “The biggest issue now is, he’s come into conflict with our Ning Family’s interests, so you need to be prepared.”

Understanding the implications of her grandfather’s words, Samantha quickly asked, “Grandfather, is there no other way?”

Grandpa Ning smiled bitterly, “What can be done? Would a Master Realm powerhouse stoop to bowing his head to the eighteen cities of Jiangnan?”

“This…”

“Enough. The specifics are unclear for now, but you better not contact him again. Understand?”

Samantha’s expression turned ugly, and after hesitating, she nodded.

…

By comparison, the Locke family had anticipated Greg’s level for a while, just not that it would stir up a storm so soon.

Greg not only cured Old Master Locke’s illness, but also resolved the Locke family’s crisis, and helped them modify their Cultivation Technique, enabling Theresa to quietly enter the Master Realm.

Having received such great favors from Greg, the Locke family naturally did not want to be his enemy.

But, being one of the great families of Mystic City, if they wavered on this matter, their future in the eighteen cities of Jiangnan would be difficult.

Therefore, Old Master Locke and others like Noah found the situation to be quite thorny.

“If you ask me, just give him a heads-up and be done with it,” spoke Aunt Lin with a snort.

“Aunt Lin, as the saying goes, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of kindness.

If it weren’t for Greg, our Locke family would probably be long gone by now. How could we join others in moving against him at this time?” Theresa frowned.

Aunt Lin glanced at her disdainfully and said indifferently, “Helping him is one thing, but what about the dozens in our Locke family? Should they all just follow him and starve?”

“You…”

“Enough, stop arguing!”

Old Master Locke gave the two of them a stern look, furrowed his brow, and mused, “Theresa, for now, discuss this with Mr. Wolfe and see what he has to say.”

“Yes, Grandfather,” she replied.

Helpless, Theresa had no choice but to call Greg Jensen.

On the phone, Greg was silent for a long time before saying, “Alright, I got it. Thank your grandfather for me. As for the other matters, you Locke family do what you need to do. I don’t need your concern.”

“Greg, but…”

“It’s fine. They are just a bunch of ants. I haven’t even taken them seriously,” Greg forced a light-hearted laugh and added, “Okay, that’s it for now, I’ve got things to handle.”

“Alright then.”

Theresa hung up the phone and, feeling helpless, looked up only to find that everyone in the family was staring at her.

She sighed and said, “Greg said we should do whatever we need to and not worry about him.”

Upon hearing this, Aunt Lin’s face brightened with joy, “See, what did I tell you? He’s a Master Realm powerhouse. Does he need our little Locke family worrying about him?”

Theresa shot her another glance, but this time she kept quiet, understanding that Aunt Lin was not wrong.

Yet, she couldn’t shake off a sense of discomfort, feeling that they were somehow letting Greg down.

…

At East Peak Manor, after hanging up the phone, Greg took a deep breath to soothe his emotions, and stepped into his room.

Inside the room, Zhou Jiamei was lying in bed asleep.

After a period of recovery, her life was no longer in danger, but her appearance had set: she still looked like a woman in her sixties.

Zhou Jiamei was quite resistant to Greg and did not want him to see her current state.

She used to be a Dark Strength Period expert, but her martial skills were now gone, and her alertness was not what it used to be.

So, Greg often came to check on her while she was asleep, taking her pulse and trying to find a way to restore her youth.

Fortunately, because of her condition, she spent a lot of time sleeping each day, allowing Greg frequent visits.

After taking her pulse and seeing that there was nothing wrong, he felt relieved. He sat by the bed for a while before standing and walking out.

“Yunzheng, notify all the Family Heads to come see me.”

“Yes, boss.”
