Chapter 341 Four Slaps
The group of well-dressed men and women turned pale at Jame's words.
Mr. Rivera had always been sensitive about his face, and James's bluntness was practically a death wish.
Kaida was the first to step forward, shouting, "How dare you! Mr. Rivera is not someone you can insult!"
Kaida instinctively reached for the weapon at her waist.
The eyes of the other well-dressed men and women also flashed with cold light.
"I can cure the poison on your face." James continued to stare at Gerald. "But it'll cost you ten million dollars."
Ten million dollars was a bit low, but for such an easy task, he didn't mind making some quick cash.
"You're so young, and you know medicine?" Kaida's pretty face turned cold. "Don't try to show off in front of us."
Although she was surprised that James could see Mr. Rivera was poisoned and knew he didn't have long to live, she still didn't believe James could cure him.
"Do you know who Mr. Rivera is? He's the mayor of Glowing Oasis."
Realizing she had said too much, Kaida quickly changed her tone,
"If you know what's good for you, apologize to Mr. Rivera immediately, or don't blame me for being rude."
As she spoke, an overwhelming aura pressed down on James, and Kaida's cold eyes showed a hint of killing intent.
"Enough!" James's eyes turned cold, and with a flick of his finger, a fork shot out.
Kaida only saw a blur before a powerful, unstoppable cold light shot towards her.
She drew her dagger and slashed with all her might.
But just as the dagger was swung, she felt a sharp pain in her scalp, and then her back slammed into the wall.
The fork had pinned her braid to the soft wall.
The whole room was shocked.
Kaida was even more stunned, unable to believe it.
How was this possible?
How could this young man be so strong?
She was a top fighter in the first-tier.
For James to defeat her in one move, he had to be at least mid-tier.
At his age, with this level of skill, he was a martial arts prodigy.
Kaida regretted opposing James.
Seeing how terrifying James was, the other well-dressed men and women instinctively reached for their weapons.
"Stop!" Mr. Rivera shouted, "Everyone, stand down."
The well-dressed men and women hesitated but lowered their weapons.
"Young man, I'm sorry, Kaida was rude." Mr. Rivera looked at James with an apologetic expression. "Please be magnanimous and forgive her."
Then he turned to Kaida and said, "Kaida, apologize to this gentleman."
Kaida's mouth twitched. "Mr. Rivera."
Gerald's face fell. "Apologize."
Kaida's eyelid twitched, and she reluctantly said, "I'm sorry."
James responded calmly, "Don't let it happen again, or you'll be dead."
Kaida shivered, a chill spreading through her body, and her legs trembled slightly.
James looked young, but every word he said made people believe him.
"I also have some fault for not disciplining her properly."
Mr. Rivera smiled and bowed slightly to James. "I apologize to you as well."
"You're too kind." James's eyes lost their killing intent. "This has little to do with you."
Whether it was because Mr. Rivera's life was nearing its end or because he was kind, James felt a bit more warmth towards him.
Gerald smiled and asked, "May I know your name?"
James responded directly, "James Williams."
Gerald invited James to sit. "You know medicine?"
James spoke calmly, "You've been poisoned by Gu Sorcery. This poison isn't aggressive, but like ink dissolved in water, it's hard to remove."
"It spreads slowly through the bloodstream, eventually accumulating in the brain or heart, causing death."
"Even though you've used blood transfusions and medication to suppress it, it's still moved to your face."
James saw through Gerald's condition at a glance. "You have at most a week to live."
Kaida and the others were shocked.
James was spot on.
Mr. Rivera was also overjoyed. "James, please help me. I'll pay any price."
James spoke calmly, "I've already told you, ten million dollars."
"Alright, cure my poison, and I'll give you ten million dollars."
Mr. Rivera's tone was excited. "Go ahead, I don't have many days left anyway. The worst that can happen is false hope."
Although he was almost hopeless about the poison on his face, it didn't mean he didn't want to live a few more days.
James smiled. "Don't worry, it won't be false hope."
Mr. Rivera asked, "Do I need to prepare anything?"
James shook his head lightly. "No."
The next second, he stepped forward and slapped Mr. Rivera twice.
The sound was crisp and loud.
Gerald was dazed, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the floor.
It was shocking.
"Almost there." James glanced at him and slapped him twice more.
Gerald spat out another mouthful of blood.
He bent over, and if not for his left hand supporting the table, he would have fallen to the ground.
"Mr. Rivera!"
Several of his confidants were shocked and rushed over.
Kaida shouted at James, "What are you doing?"
They hadn't expected James to be so reckless, daring to slap Gerald in public and make him spit blood.
It was simply courting death.
"Stop!" Gerald pushed away the hands trying to help him and shouted at Kaida and the others, "Do not be rude to James!"
Kaida and the others were stunned. "Mr. Rivera, this kid offended you."
"Offended? That was James treating me."
Mr. Rivera stood up straight. At first, he thought James was being rude, but seeing the black blood on the floor, he realized he had encountered someone highly skilled.
Kaida and the others looked over and were shocked to see that Gerald's shriveled, blackened face no longer had the shadow of poison and had a touch of redness.
It was the vitality and energy of a young person.
And on the floor was a large pool of black blood.
There was no doubt that the poison on Gerald's face had been slapped out by James.
What kind of technique was this?
Kaida and the others were all dumbfounded, unable to believe what they were seeing.
The poison that countless famous doctors couldn't solve was resolved with a few slaps?
It was simply unbelievable.
"Your poison is cured." James wiped his palm with a tissue and advised, "For the next month, eat lightly and drink more milk."
To give the other party a bit of a shock, James didn't bother using silver needles and directly used the Life Gem to neutralize the poison.
Mr. Rivera's eyes widened. Although spitting out that black blood made him feel much better, he still found it hard to believe he was cured just like that.
Then, Mr. Rivera touched his face and used his inner energy to check himself.
Soon, his eyes widened, and he couldn't contain his excitement.
The weakness, the blood stagnation and the severe headache, they were all gone.
The severe headache grabbed James's hand. "Amazing, you're truly amazing."
James extended his hand. "Enough talk, pay up."
