SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 239: Master Chen's Apology

"Phat!" With a loud slap, Kent sent the patriarch's brother sprawling to the ground. As more members of the Chen family rushed forward to attack, Kent's swift and powerful strikes left them staggering back in fear. Hesitation took hold, and soon no one dared to approach him.

Ignoring the fallen attackers, Kent hurriedly made his way to Zi Chen's side, his eyes filled with scrutiny as he inspected Zi Chen's condition.

"Poison..." he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper, before quickly retrieving his golden needles from his Pegasus bracelet.

"What poison?" the family healer asked, his brow furrowed in confusion.

Kent didn't bother to reply. Instead, he focused intently on inserting the golden needles into Zi Chen's key acupoints with lightning speed.

"Hey, what are you doing?" The Chen family healer cried out, astonished by the rapid precision of Kent's movements.

"I'm extracting the poison. If you don't know what you're doing, stand aside and don't interrupt me," Kent commanded, his tone brooking no argument.

He infused his aura into the needles, feeling the poison that had already mixed thoroughly with Zi Chen's blood and seeped into every organ.

The poison had lingered in Zi Chen's body overnight, making traditional methods of extraction impossible. However, Kent possess the flames of the Vermillion Bird, a rare power capable of purging toxins. As he channeled his aura with vermillion flames, Zi Chen's pain began to subside.

Master Chen, witnessing his son's agonized expression gradually ease, ordered the remaining family members to leave the room.

The air crackled with tension and anticipation as Kent's golden needles glowed with the heat of the Vermillion Bird's flames, purging the poison from Zi Chen's body with meticulous ease.

Sophia, who stood on the side, approached close to the bed to help Kent. But Kent hurriedly warned her in a serious tone.

"You can't handle this poison. It's too dangerous. Stay away from the bed."

"What do you mean, son? Are you trying to say Kent did this?" The patriarch asked in a serious tone while waiting for confirmation.

"Nohhhh..." With a crying face, Zi Chen muttered a NO.

Sophia, who stood on the side, fed up with his father's behavior who is trying to frame Kent even though Zi Chen is denying it.

"Father, can't you see the truth?" Why would Kent treat Zi Chen in the first place if he did it? Also, Kent didn't ask for anything to extract poison. Instead of being grateful, you were doing the opposite." Sophia cried out angrily.

Master Chen's fists clenched as he did not understand how to refute Sophia's words. Before he did anything, Zi Chen opened his mouth in struggle and stuttered Larry's name.

"See, do you believe now? Go and drag that, Larry. Show your frustration on Moonbrook family if you can." Sophia gritted her teeth and gave a dissatisfied look to Master Chen.

On one side, Zi Chen is crying for an unknown reason. Master Chen sat there in a daze while staring at his son. He did not understand what to do in that situation. After much thought, he finally decided to accept reality and bow his head to the circumstances.

With a determined gaze, he approached Kent and bowed his head in apology. "Thank you for treating my son. Even though I behaved very disrespectfully, you treated my son when needed without any benefit. I'm really sorry for what happened." Master Chen said it emotionally, accepting his defeat.

But Kent didn't believe in Master Chen's change of character. He believed that Master Chen had no other way to save his son, and that's why he bowed his head for the time being.

While Kent is closely observing the patriarch, Master Chen called his brother and the property manager inside.

The property manager gave the documents to Sophia to sign. But Sophia passed it to Kent. After reading through the contents, Kent smiled.

"So, Sophia can't sell the business or change the name of the Chen family." Kent laughed at the ploy and passed it to Sophia. "Sign it." Kent replied while staring at Master Chen, who is struggling to avoid Kent.

"But Kent..." Sophia tried to ask about the conditions, but Kent instructed her to sign the document without any questions.
