Chapter 81 The Unspoken Reason
An hour later, the jeep convoy arrived at the military hospital
However, they bypa*sed the main reception building and drove about three hundred meters to stop in
front of a heavily guarded five-story building
Meynard, accompanied by a man who appeared to be around fifty years old, stood at the
As Finnegan stepped out of the vehicle behind Stephen, Reynard greeted him with a smile.
Dr. Larkin, it’s been a while”
Finnegan glanced at him and retorted, “Get out of my way. You’re always finding ways to bother me
Stephen and Jace exchanged surprised glances, wondering if they had misheard
After all, Reynard was the head of Regulus Pavilion and ranked in the top five in Loang’s military.
Moreover, under his command were the Dragon Team and Phoenix Team, comprised of numerous elite
and formidable soldiers. Everyone, except for those more important than him, held immense respect for
him!
He was not someone one would tell to “get out of the way.”
What shocked them more was that Reynard didn’t seem offended; instead, he chuckled. “I can’t help it.
There are certain things only you can do, so I had to find you.”
Finnegan’s gaze shifted to the other man with Reynard. “Logan, I didn’t expect you to level up further
since I saw you last. You’ll reach the Ether Realm within five years, I suppose?”
Stephen’s and Jace’s eyes practically popped out of their sockets.
Logan Tree was one of the ten strongest meinbers of the Dragon Team and an Absolute Rank
rra Realm Grandmaster.
Even those from prestigious backgrounds dared not address him directly; they had to use
hone
Is this guy really that powerful? Isn’t he afraid that Mr. Tree might smack him?
However, Logan seemed unperturbed Under Stephen and Jace’s astonished gazes, he stepped
forward and respectfully bowed toward Finnegan “Thanks to you taking care of me for three months
two years ago, Dr. Larkin, I made a full recovery and even went from
Postliminary Rank Terra Realm to Absolute Rank!”
Finnegan gave Logan’s shoulder a pat. “You’re one of the nation’s guardians; it’s my duty to care for
you. Your guidance those three months was pretty enlightening, too.”
After a pause, he grinned playfully. “Oh, and by the way, remember that fifty-year-old vintage wine you
mentioned you would offer me when I came out of seclusion? I’ll take you up on that offer now. You
remember that, right?”
“I’ve got it ready here waiting for you, Dr. Larkin.”
“Perfect! Tonight’s not ideal, though. Let’s set it up for tomorrow.”
Finnegan gave Logan another pat on his shoulder, grinning. Then, he shot Reynard a look.
The latter nodded and said, “Dr. Larkin, this way, please!”
As Stephen watched Finnegan and Reynard walk away, he spoke in a hushed tone. “Mr. Tree, is he
really Dr. Aiello’s disciple? Didn’t they say Dr. Aiello only took in a few students?”
Jace chimed in with a question of his own, “Mr. Tree, aren’t you and General Reynard being a bit too
polite to him? Even if he’s Dr. Aiello’s disciple, isn’t it a bit much?”
As far as Jace could remember, those who patted Logan’s shoulder while speaking were all bigwigs.
Logan nodded slightly, his eyes filled with reverence. “He is indeed Dr. Aiello’s disciple. However, to
protect him, Dr. Aiello only revealed that to a select few. As for the politeness… Apart from his medical
skills, there’s a reason that I cannot tell you. You’ll probably find out someday!”
Upon hearing this, Stephen and Jace exchanged surprised glances, clearly taken aback.
Even with their prestigious backgrounds, they had to wait for the right moment to know the
reason?
However, Stephen wasn’t too bothered, he was actually excited. “I never thought Dr. Aiello had a
disciple Moreover, he is right here in Jadeborough! Looks like my sister might have a
Chance!
Logan’s expression grew serious. “Mr Wright, you can seek his medical help, but remember one thing
Apart from Old Me Wright, never mention that he’s Dr. Atello’s disciple to anyone else as there are too
many people in this world who war: to crase Dr Aiello’s legacy”
On the fifth floe, a well-equipped room was guarded by security
Keypod led Finnegande announcing Old Mr Suisse. Dr. Larkin is here!”

A white-robed elderly man turned around excitedly. “Dr. Aiello’s… Is he the one?”
Upon seeing Finnegan, however, Humphrey was stunned.
Is this the sole disciple of the Eternal Medicine God, Sawyer Aiello? He looks so young!
“Yes, he’s Dr. Finnegan Larkin, the sole disciple of Dr. Aiello,” Reynard responded, unfazed. When he
saw Finnegan for the first time, he had a similar reaction. “Dr. Larkin, this is one of Loang’s top ten
miracle doctors, Humphrey Suisse!”
Finnegan nodded briefly, then walked over to the bed where a frail old man lay, connected to various
devices.
It was Jeremy Samson, patriarch of the Samson family, which was one of Loang’s Five Great Families.
Jeremy had taken to the battlefield at eleven, spent years in combat, and only established his family in
his forties.
Now in his nineties, he had dedicated over eighty years to Loang.
Even though Jeremy was unconscious, Finnegan couldn’t help but admire him deeply to the extent that
he bowed to the bedridden figure in respect.
Straightening himself, Finnegan inquired, “If Old Mr. Samson wasn’t saved, he should have pa*sed
away ten days ago, right?”
Reynard nodded. “Yes, Old Mr. Samson fell into a coma suddenly ten days ago, and his condition
deteriorated quickly. Fortunately, Old Mr. Suisse and others intervened to sustain his life. Then I sent
people to find you, but you were nowhere to be found. Besides, you…”
Reynard trailed off with a bitter smile.
Finnegan responded, “I don’t like it when someone calls my number just to ask me for help with
treatment, so you’ve been enduring and not calling me?”
Reynard retorted, “Well, you’re known as the Mischievous Doctor!”
Apart from his ten non-treatment rules, Finnegan had a rather unconventional approach in
other matters too.
If someone dared to call him on the phone for treatment, he would feel disrespected and would outright
refuse.
Finnegan coughed awkwardly and patted Reynard’s shoulder. “Rey, it depends on who needs my help.
If it’s someone like Old Mr. Samson, I’d reluctantly make the effort.”

Reynard’s l*ps twitched. “Are you saying we didn’t have to come all the way to Jadeborough?”
“Well, that’s not exactly true either. Truth be told, I don’t feel like going anywhere lately.”
Finnegan chuckled and moved on from the conversation with Reynard. He turned his attention to
Humphrey. “Old Mr. Suisse, you used the Thirteen Revival Needles on Old Mr. Samson, right?”
Humphrey, still doubting Finnegan’s abilities due to his youth, looked surprised. “How did you know?”
Indeed, Humphrey had used the Thirteen Revival Needles, but that was some time ago. It wasn’t
possible for Finnegan to know about it.
Staring intently at Jeremy, Finnegan answered, “How I know isn’t important. What matters is that your
Thirteen Revival Needles technique is incomplete. Otherwise, even if Old Mr. Samson didn’t fully
recover, he wouldn’t be in a coma like this.”
Humphrey was even more astonished now. His doubt vanishing, he said, “Mr… Dr. Larkin, you’re right. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
My Thirteen Revival Needles technique is indeed incomplete. I’ve only managed the first eleven
needles, and I improvised the last two. You could tell that at a glance, huh? Do you happen to know the
complete set of Thirteen Revival Needles?”
Finnegan placed his hand on Jeremy’s wrist and calmly replied, “Let me first treat Old Mr.
Samson.”
