The old man in robe calmed down quickly.

He has been in the army all his life and has gone through many bloody killings. What kind of storms and waves has he not experienced?

He also knows best that there are many strange people and strangers with incredible means in this world.

Undoubtedly, the young man in front of me is extremely extraordinary!

"Have you followed us secretly before?"

Sabrina suddenly frowned and spoke.

The old man in robe was speechless, and before Ethan Knapp could speak, he said:

"Girl, don't talk nonsense. With this little friend's ability, it is impossible for him to do something so unflattering."

As he said that, he held his hands towards Ethan Knapp, his expression already showing a touch of admiration, "May I ask, little friend, what else did you see?"

Grandpa, he...

Sabrina showed an expression of disbelief.

As a grandfather, who in the 19th city of Yunhe County is worthy of his "respect"?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but take another look at Ethan Knapp. He had a thin figure, a clear face, and looked pretty good.

However, the aura on his body was ordinary, as if he had no cultivation at all...

Could it be that……

This person's cultivation level has reached such a terrifying level that it is "impossible to fathom"?

She comes from an extraordinary family. When she was a child, she heard her elders say that there are some terrestrial gods-like figures in this world. They look ordinary, but in fact they are terrifying existences based on "martial arts" and have vast magical powers!

Could it be that the person in front of me is not a young man, but an old man with good looks?

Thinking of this, Sabrina heart trembled, and a trace of surprise appeared between her eyebrows.

Ethan Knapp didn't expect that Sabrina would have so many thoughts just because of the old man's hand gesture.

Facing the question from the old man in robe, he said calmly:

"To put it bluntly, with your cultivation at the third level of the 'furnace realm', even if you collect Liuyin grass and Jiyang flower this time, I'm afraid it won't be possible for you to break through the realm."

After a pause, he continued: "In other words, you should have already expected that with your current age and foundation, ordinary cultivation methods will not allow you to make further progress in martial arts, so you decided to use these two elixirs. Use your power to forcefully break through, right?"

The old man in the robe stiffened and felt a chill running down his spine, as if all the secrets inside and outside his body had been seen through.

If Ethan Knapp had guessed the source of his injury and the purpose of his trip before, he would still be a little doubtful.

Now, he was absolutely sure that the young man in front of him must be an expert!

"Grandpa, how come he knows everything..."

Sabrina cried out.

She was a little out of control emotionally, and her face was full of surprise.

But for Ethan Knapp, who has awakened the memory of his past life, making such an inference should not be too simple.

"Sir, his discernment is as sharp as a torch, and I am amazed!"

The old man in robe sighed and bowed his hands in greeting again. He even changed his title from "little friend" to "sir", not daring to flatter him any more.

Ethan Knapp nodded secretly.

The Yanglu Realm is also called the Grandmaster Realm!

Based on his seventeen years of experience in this life, it is quite clear that the robed old man's status as a martial arts master can be called a "giant" in the entire Yunhe County, not to mention in Guangling City!

After all, the Zhou Dynasty is too lacking in spiritual energy, and those who can cultivate to the level of a master are enough to ennoble the princes and become powerful.

At present, it is rare for the old man in robe to treat him with courtesy due to his status as a master.

"Sir, since you can see my grandfather's injury, you must have a way to treat my grandfather's injury, right?"

Sabrina couldn't help but speak, her fair and delicate oval face showing a hint of hope.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the master was like a dragon, and everyone looked up to him.

One person is enough to determine the rise and fall of a top clan!

And her grandfather was by no means comparable to ordinary martial arts masters.

If he dies due to this injury, it will definitely be a serious blow to the entire family!

Seeing Ethan Knapp's miraculous ability, Sabrina, who was full of worries, seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope.

"The old Kendrick Carter is somewhat famous in Yunhe County. If you can save my life, I will never forget your life-saving grace!"

The old man in the robe also felt a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he held his hand again and spoke solemnly.

As a martial arts master who has been all-powerful for many years, how could he not be clear that even if he were the same master, it would be impossible to see through his injuries at a glance!

Based on this alone, Ethan Knapp's status in his heart has risen to an "unfathomable" level.

"If this injury cannot be cured, why did I say so much before?"

Ethan Knapp chuckled.

Kendrick Carter and his granddaughter Sabrina eyes lit up.

"As long as Mr. Lao Cheng's illness is cured, I can agree to any request!"

Kendrick Carter expression became more solemn and his voice was loud and clear.

However, he couldn't help but feel worried.

In his opinion, with Ethan Knapp's miraculous skills, ordinary "repay" may not be enough!

But he couldn't care less.

As long as he can survive, he will not hesitate to pay no matter how high the price is!

"For you, it's a life-saving grace, but for me it's a trivial matter. So, just give me a little money for the consultation."

Ethan Knapp thought for a while and said.

"What?"

Kendrick Carter and Sabrina were both dumbfounded and couldn't believe their ears.

"Any questions?" Su Yi asked.

"no."

Sabrina shook her head quickly, with a strange look on her face, and said, "I just didn't expect... that... it would be so easy..."

At the end of the sentence, the voice was like a mosquito, chattering endlessly.

Ethan Knapp can't even laugh or cry, it's just a matter of effort, why should I bother you?

Kendrick Carter sighed loudly and said with a wry smile: "Girl, what do you know? Mr. is such a person, how can he care about a little money? The reason for this is because he doesn't want us to owe any favors."

"That's it."Sabrina suddenly realized.

This is a master who doesn't care about the favors owed by characters like himself!

Sabrina quickly took out a banknote from her purse, handed it over respectfully with both hands, and whispered:

"Sir, this is a 10,000-tael silver note. It is some of my and grandpa's wishes. Please accept it."

Ten thousand taels, just take it out casually?

Ethan Knapp was surprised, and then he realized that the grandfather and grandson in front of him were probably far richer than he had imagined.

It should be noted that as one of the three major clans in Guangling City, the Alice family only distributes pocket money to sisters Medusa Alice and Drusilla Alice only three hundred taels of silver every month.

"Ten thousand taels is too much."

Ethan Knapp shook his head.

Although he was in urgent need of money to buy medicinal materials at the moment, he didn't bother to make a fortune on this kind of thing.

Kendrick Carter sighed again in his heart.

He became more and more convinced that the master in front of him didn't care about money at all.

In other words, in the eyes of this expert, treating his own injuries may not really be a big deal!

He is not greedy for money, nor does he want to owe favors to himself, and he can see through his true identity at a glance. If he is not a legendary expert, he can even blind him!

For a time, Kendrick Carter became more and more respectful when facing Su Yi.

He was cunning and took a longer-term view, and he had secretly decided that when the injury healed, he would establish a relationship with this master no matter what!

At this time, Sabrina looked embarrassed and muttered: "But the smallest denomination of the banknotes I have is 10,000 taels."

Ethan Knapp: "..."

In this great Zhou Dynasty, how wealthy must the family be for a little girl to be so wealthy?

But Kendrick Carter looked solemn and said: "Sir, for ordinary people in the world, ten thousand taels is indeed a huge sum of money. But to me, it is nothing, and it is far from the gratitude in my heart."

"As you said before, to you this is a trivial matter, but to me, it is a life-saving grace!"

After saying this, he bowed and said in a sincere tone: "Please accept it, so that I and my granddaughter can feel at ease."

Seeing her grandfather giving such a great gift, Sabrina became anxious and said respectfully:

"Sir, I'm not afraid of your jokes. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the life of a master like my grandfather cannot be exchanged for a million taels of gold, let alone a mere ten thousand taels of silver?"

"You...just accept it, otherwise, grandpa and I will feel guilty for the rest of our lives."

After saying that, she also bowed and presented the banknote with both hands.

Seeing this scene, Ethan Knapp felt funny for a while.

He originally had the mentality of doing something with a little effort, but he never thought that the other party would not insist on giving money...

He didn't bother to refuse anymore, put away the bank note, and said with a smile: "Okay, you two don't want to give such a big gift again, otherwise, the medical fee will be too hot."

Kendrick Carter straightened up quickly, with a smile on his face.

Sabrina also breathed a sigh of relief, her brows filled with relief and joy.

"In order to save your injury, in addition to swallowing medicine for seven days, you also need to use secret methods to expel the corpse poison from the five internal organs. Only in this way can the hidden danger be completely eliminated."

Ethan Knapp said and gave out a prescription. There were more than thirty kinds of medicinal herbs, none of which were rare.

Only Yaoyin is extremely rare and precious, it is a ten-year-old "Jade Toad Slough".

However, Ethan Knapp believes that this cannot help the existence of masters like Kendrick Carter.

"Thank you sir for the prescription!"

After firmly memorizing the prescription, Kendrick Carter bowed and saluted again, feeling quite excited.

Ethan Knapp nodded and said: "Swallow these medicines for seven days. After seven days, you wait for me here and I will help you completely eliminate the remaining poison in your body."

"I still have something to do, so I'll go ahead and say goodbye."

After that, he turned around and left.

Until Ethan Knapp's figure disappeared far away.

Only then did Sabrina come back to her senses, her beautiful eyes moved, and she said softly:

"Grandpa, if that gentleman hadn't seen through your secret just now, I would have regarded him as a liar."

Kendrick Carter suddenly sneered and said: "Girl, don't talk nonsense, it's only ten thousand taels of silver, how can you possibly get into that gentleman's eyes? Look at his actions, he is really a god!"

"Remember, next time we meet, we must be more humble and respectful, and we must not be sloppy in the slightest!"

At the end of his words, his expression became extremely serious.

Sabrina stuck out her tongue and said obediently: "Grandpa, don't worry, I've written it all down."

Kendrick Carter hummed, and then said with emotion: "I thought that I would not have a few more days to live when I returned from Guimu Ridge this time. Who would have thought that by chance, I would meet an expert by chance, and he would give me guidance and give me a gift? My prescription, how lucky am I...?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly slapped his forehead, remembered something, and said with an annoyed expression: "I'm confused, I forgot to ask that gentleman's name just now!"
