Chapter 1473
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âUm, to be honest with you, Mister Thompson, a treasure that harnessed Light Energy will indeed be useful against your sisterâs illness, but unfortunately, this Luminous Pearl of mine doesnât harness any Light Energy at all. It wonât be of use to you even if I lend it to you,â Leon replied truthfully.
According to his knowledge, the Luminous Pearl that he got his hands on was an ancient relic that could aid him in his sage arts and martial arts training, but not a piece of treasure with Light Energy at all!
He was not lying to Yuri at all.
âThatâs impossible! Mister Wolf, the true energy contained within this Luminous Pearl is so powerfulâit must certainly harness Light Energy! Have you made a mistake?â Raphael was stunned to hear this.
He sensed pure energy within the Luminous Pearl back when Leon triggered it, but truth be told, even he was not certain whether the Luminous Pearl was indeed a treasure with Light Energy.
âMister Wolf, are you refusing to lend it to me because youâre worried the Thompsons might steal your treasure?â Yuri was beginning to wonder whether this was just an excuse for Leon not to lend him the treasure.
âNo, thatâs not the case. Unfortunately, the Luminous Pearl wonât be of use to your sister at all,â Leon sighed. He intended to explain further, but Yuri jumped to conclusions and refused to listen to his explanation.
âNever mind. Since youâre so reluctant to lend it to me, I shall leave you alone! We Thompsons can always get our hands on another piece of treasure!â Yuri scoffed, then turned to storm away.
As desperate as he was to get his hands on the Luminous Pearl to help his sister, the Thompsons were a prestigious family after all, and Yuri was not willing to utilize force or violence to steal anyoneâs treasure from them!
He would never be able to do that, considering how poorly it would reflect on his family!
Besides, Roanne was sick for over two decades now, and they did not need to rush to find a cure. He knew that the Thompsons would surely find another way to get their hands on the treasure needed to cure her!
âWait, Mister Thompson. You donât necessarily need Light Energy to cure your sisterâs disease.
Perhaps I can find a way to help her!â Leon called out after Yuriâs retreating figure.
Leon always possessed good medical knowledge, and since Yuri helped him just now, he was still grateful for his help and wanted to offer to help Roanne whenever feasible. This would be his way of paying Yuri back for his favor!
âWhat? Did you say you can cure my sister? Do you mean it?â Yuri was stunned to hear this and immediately froze in his tracks. Then, he turned around and made his way back to Leonâs side.
âYes, I mean it! I picked up some medical knowledge in the past, and have treated some rare illnesses.
If your sister has indeed been diagnosed with Third Degree Block, I have about seventy percent confidence that I can cure her.â Leon nodded.
It would not be difficult for him to cure any rare diseases, but since he did not meet the patient before and was not familiar with her exact situation, he did not dare to say with certainty that he would be able to help her.
However, if Yuriâs description was accurate, he still had about a 70% chance of succeeding!
