Chapter 410 Fancy Himself Clever

Alice was floored by what Herong just said.

She thought Herong was talking about Chloe, but he meant Angela, who was with Ethan in Norway!

Ethan and Angela were on a secret mission in Norway, and Angela had been out of sight since they left the airport.

Ethan spent a whole day with Alice looking for Angela, so how did Herong know?

"What do you mean by that?" Alice asked, eyes narrowing in suspicion.

"Nothing much. Just feel bad for you. You're friends with Lilia, so you must come from a good family. Don't you care that your guy has other women around? Do you even know Ethan? Is he just a doctor?" Herong pressed.

Alice's suspicions turned into certainty—Herong was somehow tied to Ethan's mission and was fishing for info!

"How much do you know?" Alice's face darkened.

"More than you think. Do you really believe Ethan's treating the King just because of you? Or maybe he has feelings for Lilia?" Herong sneered, trying to provoke Alice and gather more intel.

He aimed to drive a wedge between Alice and Ethan while collecting useful info. Why not?

"Stop talking nonsense! Ethan isn't like that, and even if he has other women, I don't care!" Alice shot back, furious.

"Seriously? If you didn't care, why are you so mad? Listen, a guy like him isn't worth it. Let's team up and take him down!" Herong laughed and suggested seriously.

"Dream on! It's none of your business. Shut up!" Alice snapped and stormed off to the restroom.

Watching her leave, Herong smirked.

In the restroom, Alice sighed in relief.

No way Herong would follow her in here, right?

She quickly pulled out her phone and messaged Ethan.

She had to tell Ethan what Herong said. If Herong was linked to Ethan's mission, it was a big deal!

Meanwhile, Ethan was in Ryan's room, using silver needles and his super energy to clear some bad energy from Ryan's body.

The bad energy near Ryan's heart was small but caused his angina.

No device could detect this energy, but Ethan's super energy could.

From the moment he examined Ryan, Ethan found this energy was the same as the one on Herong!

Now, Ethan was sure it was Herong's doing!

What surprised him more was that the energy in Ryan's body was stronger and purer than the demonic energy he'd encountered before. It converted into way more super energy!

But this energy was different from Arnold's or Asura Bloodhand's demonic energy. It shouldn't even be called demonic energy. What was it?

"Forget it. If I can't figure it out now, I'll leave it. At least I know the root cause, and the Sun and Moon Beads can restrain Herong's energy. That's good enough," Ethan muttered, using the silver needles to extract the last trace of energy from Ryan's body.

He then reintroduced the converted super energy back into Ryan to help him recover.

Ryan, who had been frowning and expressionless, suddenly felt a warm energy filling his body, bringing immense comfort. His face lit up with excitement and surprise.

"Alright, the root cause is gone. The King won't have any more episodes, and he'll be healthier than before," Ethan said calmly, removing the silver needles.

"Am I all better?" Ryan sat up, feeling the newfound energy in his body, as if he were decades younger. His eyes sparkled with excitement!

"Are you really okay?" Lilia asked joyfully, noticing Ryan's rosy complexion.

"I can't be sure about the heart pain, but I feel amazing, like I've become decades younger! Mr. Wilson, how did you do it? That warm energy was so comforting!" Ryan asked Ethan excitedly, addressing him with great respect. To him, what Ethan did was nothing short of a miracle.

"Honestly, this wasn't an illness. Someone tampered with your body," Ethan explained.

"What?" Ryan's face changed immediately.

"How come?" Lilia recalled Ethan's earlier speculation. Could it really be Herong?

"I'm certain it was Herong. Think back—did you have any close contact with him before you got sick?" Ethan asked seriously.

"Well, about a month before I fell ill, I did have close contact with Herong. I hosted the ceremony to confer him the title of baron," Ryan said, frowning.

"Did you have any physical contact?" Ethan pressed.

"Yes, but I didn't feel anything unusual," Ryan shook his head, confused.

"Herong is a Half-Step Grandmaster. If he used special means to tamper with your body, it would only take a moment, and you wouldn't notice it," Ethan reminded him confidently.
