Frank puffed his chest confidently. "It''s simple-I will cure Jaden, while you tell me where the chief of the Martial Alliance is. How about that?" "Pfft."


    Lubor wasughing as soon as Frank finished, watching him in glee. "Mr. Lawrence, do you think we are as stupid as you are? Who would believe your bullshit? I''ve said many times-the Soulbleeder is a novelty Hundred Bane Sect created, and only our elders can stop it. Watch out, or you''d bite your tongue if you keep making shit up."


    Frank remained calm despite Lubor''s scorn, shaking his head as he said, "I can see that you are caught in a dilemma, Mr. Favoni. So how about this? Take me to your son, and you tell me where the chief of the Martial Alliance is if I seed. If I don''t, I will take responsibility... though I''d be infected too and die for my lies anyway. How about that?"


    Chet paused at Frank''s confident offer.


    It was only natural that he did not want to hand over the chief of the Martial Alliance to Hundred Bane Sect. After all, that would just be handing over leverage against them.


    Moreover, it was ideal for Chet if Frank really cured Jaden, as he would not be ruffling any feathers while his son was saved.


    Frank''s offer was therefore no loss to him, just as it would not be toote to take up Hundred Bane Sect''s offer if Frank failed.


    However, just as he turned toward Frank, a Favoni sentry rushed inside, delight all over his face as he dropped to one knee and reported, "Master Favoni! Abel Loggins of Morhen has arrived!" "What?! Able Loggins?!"


    Chet appeared shocked, but delight soon showed on his face.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Abel was the most famous healer there is, and an authority of medicine in the East Coast-even


    the Four Families of Morhen went to him when one of theirs suffered


    someplicated condition.


    "Hurry, bring him in!" Chet eximed as he hurried to the front door to receive Abel, Frank''s offer being thest thing on his mind just then.


    On the other hand, Frank was unmoved despite Abel''s name being mentioned and was even smiling.


    After all, Lubor was right that Abel would never cure the Soulbleeder, as it was one of Hundred Bane Sect''s finest works.


    If one had no idea what the poison contained and tried to counteract it recklessly, they would only get poisoned in turn.


    That was why most people would refuse to get involved, and Frank knew that Abel would not seed.


    With that in mind, Frank followed the others, intending on seeing Abel and convincing him not to be reckless and get infected himself.


    However, that was when two Favoni sentries drew their swords and stopped Frank.


    "This is Favoni House, Mr. Lawrence. You don''t get to go whatever you want!"


    Frank remained calm as he looked between them, and smiled faintly, "I''m sure you heard that Abel Loggins is here, and there''s no telling if he would actually save


    Jaden, whereas I''m confident


    can.


    I''ll just wait outside, and it''s fine if Abel can cure Jaden-I won''t press the issue if so. But if he fails, isn''t it time I step up?"


    While the two sentries hesitated from Frank''s smile, Lubor turned toward Frank and sneered. "Let him through."


    He certainly would like to see what


    Frank could do, when Frank imed he could beat the poison that only


    the elders of Hundred Bane Sect could hope to stop!
