The Luckiest Dumb Doctor-Chapter 529 - Friends_1
Chapter 529: Chapter 529 Friends_1
Divine Doctor Sun fell silent for a long moment, then said, “I need to consider this carefully, let’s talk about it later.”
“That… all right, I’ll arrange for you to rest first, this way please…”
“Mhm.”
Divine Doctor Sun nodded slightly, gave Greg Jensen a sidelong glance with a cold snort, and followed Noah Locke away.
Theresa Locke’s face was full of embarrassment as she spoke softly, “Brother Greg, I’m sorry, my dad and the others are just too anxious, please forgive any lack of courtesy.”
“What are you saying that for? Aren’t we friends?”
...
“Yes, we are friends.”
Theresa Locke broke into a smile.
After the Qin Province Martial Way Exchange ended, she worried that Healington might retaliate against Greg Jensen, so she kept an eye on the situation there.
As news kept coming, Theresa Locke suddenly felt that she might not be worthy to be friends with someone like him.
There was no helping it, as the shock that Greg Jensen brought her was too immense.
In just a few months, he had grown from a Martial Way newcomer without any foundation into a local magnate.
As of today, Barry Wolfe had become the master of the entire Qin Province, while she remained just the young mistress of a Martial Way family.
In other words, Theresa Locke felt that apart from her family background, she had nothing notable to mention.
Being Greg Jensen’s friend, she was taking advantage of a great opportunity.
The reason she called Greg Jensen for help this time was that she had no other choice.
With the patriarch as the Anchor Needle of the Locke Family, he had been comatose for over a month now, and if things continued this way, the Locke Family might face serious problems.
The reason she asked Greg Jensen about his medical skills was also to leave an out for both sides; if Greg Jensen didn’t want to help, it wouldn’t be too awkward for either party.
To her surprise, Greg Jensen agreed on the spot.
Now, hearing Greg Jensen’s words, “we are friends,” Theresa Locke’s heart filled with warmth.
At the same time, she felt even more ashamed and almost unable to face herself.
The other party knew she was in trouble and came over to help without a second word, but the Locke Family hadn’t given Greg Jensen a warm welcome.
“Brother Greg, I…”
“Enough, don’t make a fuss about it.”
Seeing her thoughts, Greg Jensen laughed and said, “Hurry up and find me a room where I can take a nap. Tonight, you’ll come with me to the charity auction and have a look.”
“Sure, no problem, I’ll definitely help you get that herb today.”
“Haha, it’s a deal then.”
Theresa Locke arranged for Greg Jensen to stay in a two-story building at the back, where one could see the garden and the artificial hill; the view was quite decent.
Greg Jensen took a short rest in the room, and after waking up, he began to practice the Guidance Technique.
The spiritual energy in the Stuart Family’s estate was dense, and the Locke Family’s estate was no different.
As he practiced the Guidance Technique, the spiritual energy of the entire estate began to converge towards Greg Jensen.
Inside the bedroom.
Divine Doctor Sun was performing acupuncture on Elder Locke with a very serious expression. With each needle inserted, his expression became graver.
The Locke family members standing around unconsciously held their breath, watching with tense faces.
The atmosphere in the room became oppressively heavy.
Just then, Noah Locke, who was standing at the forefront, suddenly paused, turning his head to look out the window.

As a Grandmaster, he suddenly sensed a disturbance in the surrounding Spiritual Energy.
He found it odd, yet due to his own realm, he couldn’t discern the details of the change.
“Ah Fu, take some people and go around the estate to check if there is any problem at home.”
“Yes, I’ll go now.”
The butler turned and left.
The room fell quiet once more.
Before long, the butler returned and said in a low voice, “Mr. Locke, I didn’t find any issues; everything is normal.”
“Everything is normal?”
Noah Locke frowned and spoke irritably, “Never mind, let it go.”
“Yes, sir.”
The butler nodded and retreated to the corner again.
Suddenly, Noah Locke thought of something and asked, “What is Theresa’s friend doing?”
“He has stayed in his room and hasn’t come out.”
“Hmm.”
Noah Locke nodded, then turned his attention back to Divine Doctor Sun, his brow furrowing again. Just as he was about to inquire, he saw Gregory Jensen’s body suddenly start to shake.
“Dad…”
Noah Locke couldn’t help but exclaim in alarm.
The next second, a green hue suddenly spread over Gregory Jensen’s face.
“Divine Doctor Sun, what’s wrong with my dad?”
Divine Doctor Sun’s expression changed slightly, and while taking Gregory Jensen’s pulse, he murmured, “This shouldn’t be happening, what’s going on?”
He hesitated for a moment, then took out several silver needles again and started to perform acupuncture on Gregory Jensen.
But after a few needles, not only did Gregory Jensen’s condition fail to improve, but even his breathing started to weaken.
Seeing this, Noah Locke grew so anxious that veins popped out on his forehead. Yet he didn’t dare to question further, for fear of disturbing Divine Doctor Sun’s treatment of his father, and could do nothing but silently watch.
After a long while, Divine Doctor Sun stood up with a grim expression on his face.
Noah Locke quickly asked, “Divine Doctor Sun, how is my dad…”
Divine Doctor Sun shook his head and sighed, “I am sorry, I’ve done all I could; your father has been poisoned deeply, and the poison is extremely peculiar, even an Immortal would be helpless against it.”
Hearing this, Noah Locke’s heart sank.
Divine Doctor Sun continued apologetically, “You should prepare for the worst. Given your father’s current state, he may not last much longer.”
“Yes, thank you, Divine Doctor Sun…”
Noah Locke said thanks almost reflexively, and then suddenly his eyes bulged, and he turned around quickly, saying, “Afú, go quickly…”
“Yes, I’m here.”
The butler Afú rushed over and said confusedly, “Where to?”
“Get Theresa’s friend here, and let him have a look at my father.”
“Right away, I’ll go now.”
The butler turned to leave.
“Wait!”
Yet Theresa’s aunt’s expression changed, and she scoffed, “Big brother, why are you looking for that charlatan?”
“Of course, to treat our father.”
“He’s nothing but a swindler. What could he possibly cure?” Theresa’s aunt snorted.
Lance Law also spoke up, “That’s right, uncle. Grandfather is already in such a state, and you still want that charlatan to mess with him, this…”
“A drowning man will clutch at a straw!”
Noah Locke himself had some doubts about that young man, but since Divine Doctor Sun was at a complete loss, allowing that youngster to try couldn’t hurt.
At that moment, Theresa Locke happened to walk in.
Everyone’s gaze immediately focused on her, making her scalp tingle.
“Why… are you all looking at me like that? How is Grandpa doing?”
Noah Locke said, “Go get your friend here quickly to look at your grandfather.”
Theresa Locke glanced at Divine Doctor Sun beside her and said, “Heh, with Divine Doctor Sun here, it’s better not to make my friend embarrass himself.”
She looked towards the bed and asked, “How is Grandpa doing? When can he regain consciousness?”
Noah Locke’s face reddened slightly, “Your grandfather has been too deeply poisoned. Divine Doctor Sun hasn’t found a solution, so we thought to have your friend take a look and help.”
Theresa Locke’s expression changed slightly, and without the will to squabble with the family any longer, she nodded hurriedly, “Wait here, I’ll call him over right now.”
Noah Locke breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Divine Doctor Sun, and forced a smile, “Divine Doctor Sun, you’ve worked hard, I’ll have someone take you to rest, shall I?”
Divine Doctor Sun snorted coldly, “No rush, I’ve nothing else to do. I might as well stay and learn something. Let’s see how that young Divine Doctor goes about detoxifying.”
