Chapter 1376
Every needle Abel inserted was focused and precise.
As he inserted the last one through Jaden's chest, the blackness around his cheeks miraculously diminished, and his breathing stabilized considerably as well.
"Huh?"
Surprised showed on Lubor's face as he watched from the distance.
At the same time, Abel took out a yellow pill the size of a grape and inserted it into Jaden's mouth. "This is an antidote pill-it won't be as effective as the ones my mentor cooked, since it's just a duplicate that Loggins Apothecary developed by imitating a sample."
And soon after Abel helped Jaden take that pill, it quickly vaporized into a yellow puff of smoke as everyone looked on and flowed down Jaden's throat.
Despite being unconscious, Jaden coughed twice, and his cheeks flushed.
"It works! You're amazing, Mr. Loggins! You were just being humble before!"
Seeing that his son was recovering, Chet was beside himself with excitement. In fact, he was ready to prostrate himself before Abel in gratitude and presumed that his son was saved while everything Abel said was out of humility.
Abel was himself impressed-the technique he used was learned from Frank and only had a sliver of its effectiveness, as it was far from Frank's level.
However, that was already enough to improve Jaden's condition, which left Abel feeling even more reverence toward Frank.
Smiling and nodding, he explained, "Oh, you're exaggerating. These are just the basics I've learnt from my mentor, and it'd take him way less effort to cure your son."
Seeing how worshipful Abel was toward his mentor, Chet quickly asked, "Well, may I ask for your mentor's name?"
After all, if they knew the man, they would have someone to turn to if something like this happened again.
On the other hand, Lubor was scowling when he saw that Jaden was showing signs of recovery.
In the first place, it was his machinations that led to Jaden being poisoned.
But if Jaden recovered, how would he accomplish the task Hundred Bane Sect entrusted him with, let alone becoming the next head of the Favoni family?
With that in mind, he sneakily took out a nail-sized pill from his pocket.
Since everyone was too busy praising Abel to notice what Lubor was doing, he flicked the pill, sending it flying into the elixir Jaden was soaked in.
Meanwhile, Abel was stroking his
beard and smiling. "Hehe... Please don't be surprised, Mr. Favoni, and it's definitely no joke. My mentor is actually-"
"M-Master Favoni! Look... Your son is..."
Before Abel could mention Frank's name, however, a servant was left utterly horrified as he inadvertently saw Jaden's condition just then!
Earlier, black blood was just trickling out of Jaden's lips, and while his vitals were erratic he was still hanging on for dear life.
Now, however, he was clutching his throat as he spasmed repeatedly and coughed mouthfuls of blood!

Even as Chet turned to find that the
elixir his son was bathing in had turnedGet-black, he was at once flustered. "Please, Mr. Loggins! Y-You have to do something!"
"Calm down!"
Abel had rushed up to hold down Jaden as soon as he saw that and thrusted it into the main meridian in his throat.
Jaden instantly quieted down...
