The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 8“Miracle Doctor, please take me as your apprentice!”
Right after he spoke, Jonathan bowed to Kai.
Gaping in response, Kai realized he no longer had any energy left. As for Josephine, she gave
Jonathan a bewildered look. “Dr. Watson, what are you doing? My dad hasn’t even woken up yet.”
Josephine didn’t understand why Jonathan was addressing Kai as a miracle doctor when her father
was still unconscious.
“Ms. Sullivan, you’re probably not aware that this gentleman had just applied the Soul Resurrection
Needle, which is capable of reviving a dead man. Therefore, Mr. Sullivan will be just fine!” Jonathan
explained.
“He’s that good?”
Josephine gaped at Kai in disbelief. If what Jonathan says is true, Kai really deserves his title as
Miracle Doctor.
“I can’t believe you actually know the Soul Resurrection Needle!” Jonathan exclaimed in awe.
The Soul Resurrection Needle was an ancient acupuncture technique that had been lost through the
generations. However, Kai didn’t understand what Jonathan was talking about, as he had only learned
it from Draco.
“Miracle Doctor, I’m Dr. Jonathan Watson, deputy president of the Horington Association of Traditional
Medicine. I have read about this technique in some ancient books and didn’t expect to have the honor
of witnessing it in action today. Please, accept me as your student.”
With that, Jonathan prostrated in front of Kai.Just when Kai was confounded by Jonathan’s reaction, coughs rang out in the room. William was
finally awake.
“Dad!” Josephine reacted quickly by trying to help him up. However, Kai held her back. “Ms. Sullivan,
he’s not supposed to move yet. You’ll have to wait for me to remove the needles.”
Holding Josephine’s slender hands, he could feel how warm and gentle it felt. The sudden sensation
felt like a jolt to him. As for Josephine, she, too, felt the warmth from his hands. Blushing, she
remarked, “This is all thanks to you.”
Kai frantically released Josephine’s hand before collecting himself. With a wave of his hand, the eighty-
one needles were pulled toward his palm as if there was a magnetic force at work.
“It’s done,” Kai informed Josephine while returning the needles to Jonathan.
At that moment, Josephine no longer had any doubts left about Kai. Thanking him, she helped William
up with teary eyes.
“Dad, how do you feel?” Josephine inquired.
“I’m fine. I feel good, to be honest.” William let out a slight smile.
Upon noticing Jonathan kneeling on the ground, he asked curiously, “What’s going on?”
After Josephine related how Kai had saved him with the Soul Resurrection Needle, William was
astounded.
When Kai diagnosed his ailment just by looking at him, William was already impressed. Nevertheless,
he didn’t expect the young man to be so skillful that the deputy president of the Association of
Traditional Medicine would drop to his knees and beg to be accepted as a student.“Young man, you have saved me twice already. From today onward, you are a benefactor of the
Sullivan family. I will readily fulfill any request you have as long as it’s within my powers,” William
declared resolutely.
“You’re being too kind, Mr. Sullivan, as I barely did anything. Furthermore, this is a blessing you
deserve for all the charity you have done.”
After giving a cordial reply, Kai changed his tact. “Although I used the Soul Resurrection Needle to save
your life temporarily, you will still die within three months if your ailment isn’t treated.”
Having heard Kai’s words, William dropped to his knees. “Please, sir, I’m willing to give you everything I
have as long as you save my life.”
Fearing death, William no longer addressed Kai as a “young man.” Instead, he greeted him as “sir,” as
he was really worried that Kai would refuse to help him.
In order to survive, he was willing to give Kai all of his assets. As the richest man in Horington, William
was unimaginably wealthy. Consequently, anyone would be envious of Kai for being in such a position.
“Mr. Sullivan, there’s no need for that. I’m obliged to save you after running into you. Nonetheless,
there are some rare herbs that I need, and I hope you can prepare them for me.”
Kai could not afford to buy William any herbs. The herbs he requested were so expensive that they
were out of the masses’ reach.
“Sir, whatever you need, just say the word!” William nodded at once. Then, he turned to Josephine and
instructed, “Josephine, prepare a pen and paper to write them down.”
Meanwhile, Kai felt awkward when William kept addressing him as “sir.” Hence, he suggested, “Mr.
Sullivan, my name is Kai Chance. You can just call me by my name.”“I can’t do that. Mr. Chance, you’re my savior, and the Sullivan family will never forget it for as long as
we live.”
Given how stubborn William was, Kai didn’t insist. Instead, he wrote down a long list of herbs and
handed them to Josephine.
“Mr. Sullivan, most of the herbs on the list are for your treatment. Nonetheless, some are for my
mother, as she has lost her sight. As a result, I need some of these herbs to cure her,” Kai explained to
William honestly.
Considering Hannah had gone blind from crying, it would not be difficult for Kai to treat her.
novelbinIt was just that he was incapable of getting hold of the herbs in his current state. Hence, he felt the
Sullivan family was in a better position to obtain them.
In spite of that, there were two items that Kai was worried the Sullivans could have trouble finding. One
of them was a calligraphy brush which was embodied with spirituality after being used by a famous
scholar for a long time.
It could also be made from the fur of any spiritual animal.
Other than that, he also needed a cinnabar rosary. Although they were common items nowadays, the
one he needed was made from woods of ancient trees. Combined with the spiritually endowed
calligraphy brush, he would be able to cure Hannah’s blindness by simply anointing it on her eye.
Even though he had put the two items on the list, he was not optimistic that the Sullivan family would
find them. After all, one could only encounter the items with luck. Moreover, only those in the know
would be able to tell upon seeing it.
