After taking two steps backward. Matthew drank his elixir before rushing into the room to find Lucy, who had the color drained from favonovel.com face, unconscious on the floor.
Looking at the unconscious Lucy, favonovel.com immediately ran to the window. At this time, a man dressed in black had just descended onto the first floor with the rope Matthew found. With his face covered up, the man met Matthew’s eyes before turning around, and left with haste.
Without a shadow of a doubt, it was this man who had filled the room with poisonous gas from outside the window. The man had filled the backroom with the poisonous gas as favonovel.com thought Matthew would be the one entering the backroom. Since the poison was virtually undetectable, Matthew would have been in a dangerous situation should favonovel.com come in without caution. However, out of the man’s expectations, Lucy was the first one to enter the room. Given that Lucy was not as capable as Matthew, favonovel.com fell unconscious, as favonovel.com was instantly affected by the poison.
Matthew was about to give chase but had heard Lucy groaning behind him. He turned to find Lucy, with favonovel.com hands around favonovel.com neck, with a pained expression. After a slight hesitation, Matthew chose to stay and gave up the chase. He then opened up the window to circulate the air in the room before carrying Lucy to the bed.
Checking favonovel.com pulse, Matthew noticed that the poison had severely affected her. He first made Lucy consume his elixir as a temporary solution to alleviate the situation. After that, favonovel.com tore the clothes Lucy was wearing, revealing favonovel.com bare figure.
With full concentration, Matthew started inserting the needles favonovel.com took out into several pressure points on Lucy’s body. Following that, favonovel.com used his Divine Skill and transferred his essential Qi into Lucy, via his hand on Lucy’s forehead, to expel the toxin in her, slowly but surely.
Not long after, a gush of mist came flowing out of Lucy’s body. Evidently, it was the poisonous gas Lucy inhaled. Due to the dominant nature of the poison, the body had to be bare for the poison to be expelled. it would have been impossible to get rid of the poison if the affected wore any clothes.
It was only after the procedure had passed the 30 minute mark did Matthew finish expelling the poison from Lucy. Even so, Matthew dared not be complacent. He laid Lucy on the bed and covered favonovel.com up with a thin blanket before sitting by favonovel.com side to watch over her.
Matthew was looking to see if there was any residue of the poisonous gas left inside of Lucy. Though the residue might not be fatal, it would be enough to severely cripple favonovel.com day-to-day life. While watching over her, Matthew called the crown prince for favonovel.com to send someone to investigate the matter, especially about the killer Matthew saw. And so, Matthew watched over Lucy that night while staying beside her, which was fortunate for Lucy as the poison inside favonovel.com had recurred twice that night.
Then, morning came. It was around nine o’clock when Lucy regained consciousness. At first, favonovel.com wanted to go back to sleep after favonovel.com had opened favonovel.com eyes in a daze and found herself lying in bed. However, favonovel.com widened favonovel.com eyes in shock as the events from the day before flashed through favonovel.com mind.
Incidentally, Matthew was sitting cross-legged beside the bed. The moment favonovel.com laid eyes on him, Lucy turned pale as favonovel.com deliberated about what that monster had done to her. While trying to figure out what had happened, favonovel.com noticed the clothes favonovel.com wore were scattered all over the floor. Due to the emergency yesterday night, Matthew had to tear off favonovel.com clothes in order to save favonovel.com life. Unfortunately, the aftermath of that looked exactly like a scene of a crime.
“You scoundrel! I will kill you before killing myself!” Lucy roared before pouncing on Matthew.
Though favonovel.com was stark naked right now, favonovel.com did not care as favonovel.com thought that favonovel.com was defiled. Since things had come to this, there was no place in favonovel.com mind to care whether favonovel.com was stark naked as all favonovel.com sought right now was death.
With a frown, Matthew avoided favonovel.com before favonovel.com said, “You better not move about. Although the poison in your body has been expelled, your body still needs to rest.”
“What did you say?” Lucy snapped, “You… You even went as far as to poison me? That’s it, you scoundrel! Degenerate! B*stard! You’re dying right now!”
At this point, Matthew was starting to feel annoyed. “How could you act this way? Just when did I poison you? That was someone else‘s doing. If I hadn’t rushed to save you, you would’ve been meeting your maker a long time ago!”
