Chapter 651
“Hahaha… I love you, my goddess!”
“I knew that my goddess wouldn’t disappoint!”
“She’s amazing!”
The audience watched with relish.
On the stage outside the arena, Patrick and Frederic exchanged glances and frowned deeply.
To be honest, they did not pay much attention to Luna. After all, they could tell from the previous poison- testing round that her skills were quite average. Her only advantage seemed to be her beauty.
“Let’s keep watching. I don’t believe that a little girl like her can break through our masterpiece.”
They were only puzzled for a moment before sneering at the thought that Luna was just lucky.
“Wolf King…”
Luna was already sweating after completing one set of acupuncture techniques. Although Hades‘ Tear was powerful, it was way beyond the level of a beginner like her. Thus, it was still very challenging even with Andrius‘ guidance.
Fortunately, his condition improved a lot, which reassured her. She continued to ask, “What should I do
next?”
“Phew…” Andrius took a deep breath and adjusted himself before saying, “Next is the second acupuncture technique–the Dragon’s Dance!”
“Okay!”
Luna did not dare to be negligent. She followed Andrius‘ instructions and pierced each needle on various acupoints on his body with increasing proficiency, such as rotating and resonating them.
It was a showy and entertaining sight.
She was not intending to flaunt, but Andrius instructed her to do so because these techniques had unique effects that brought out the full power of the Dragon’s Dance.
Swoosh…
When the final silver needle was inserted, it vibrated and reflected silvery light resembling a dragon dancing. It was pleasing to the eye and lifted the spirits.
The audience below erupted when they saw Luna’s performance.
Someone hissed.
“If I’m not mistaken, that’s the Dragon’s Dance!”
“You’re not mistaken. It’s definitely the Dragon’s Dance! It’s a legendary skill that can dispel evil spirits in the body.”
“It seems that Ms. Crestfall is dispelling the evil spirits in his body to prevent him from being harmed by the evil spirits that Dr. Hopkins merged with the poison mist.”
“She’s amazing!”
The spectators watched the show, and those in the know analyzed her technique.
The guests could not help but admire Luna.
“Holy shit, my goddess is amazing!”
“I’ll be the first to fight whoever dares to call my goddess a hack!”
“We’ve misunderstood Ms. Crestfall all along. She was just hiding her true abilities and decisively displayed her talents in this crucial moment.”
“Luna, I support you!”
The audience was so impressed by Luna’s performance that they could not help but cheer and shout in support of her.
On the stage, Luna was already panting. Even with Andrius‘ guidance, she still lacked physical strength.
“Next is the third acupuncture technique, and the most crucial one. It’s called ‘Wandering World“!”
Andrius‘ breathing was much more stable. His body was mostly fine by now, but the insect on his neck. was still making his movements difficult.
“Okay! Please tell me what to do, Wolf King!”
Luna remained focused on helping treat the Wolf King.
“First, you do this…”
Chapter 652
“Then, you do this…”
Andrius explained in great detail where the needles should be placed and the trick of inserting the needles. He held nothing back and shared all the information.
The insect was an insidious creature, but the blood flowing in his body was dragon blood which was the nemesis of such insects because it possessed vitality and purity!
Under normal circumstances, dragon blood was no different from ordinary blood. It had to be activated with a special method to unleash its formidable power, which could greatly deter or even destroy insects.
Luna listened intently and carried out every instruction Andrius gave.
Swoosh…
In the onlookers‘ eyes, Luna rested briefly then began another wonderful performance.
Her hands moved like snakes as they continuously inserted needles into the fake Wolf King. The process was seamless and fluid as if she had practiced it a thousand times.
Then, the bogus Wolf King’s complexion changed from pale to rosy. His spirit was shaken, and he broke free from his weak and sickly state. He was full of vigor!
“Oh my God, that’s… Wandering World!
“Legend has it that when the founder of Florence got injured in a battle, he used Wandering World to stimulate his own qi to regain the strength to fight again!”
“It’s one of the three ancient acupuncture techniques and ranks first among them. I–I can’t believe I’m seeing it right now!”
“To think that such an exceptional acupuncture technique would reappear in the modern world! Hahahaha…”
Swoosh!
At that moment, Claude and the other elders all stood up when they recognized Luna’s technique.
The pillars of Florence’s medical community stared at her actions and did not even dare to breathe, fearing that they would disturb her while she focused on using Wandering World.
Anyone who dared to interrupt her would be an eternal sinner in the medical community and in the entire Florence!
Some looked solemn, some were in awe, and some looked like they were about to go crazy.
It was clear that the shock in their hearts had reached an unprecedented level.
The countless spectators were amazed by Luna’s skill and the experts‘ reactions.
Wandering World…
They had never heard of the technique before, but after hearing the explanation from Claude, they understood that it was an unparalleled acupuncture technique with a history of thousands of years. It was a treasure of Florencian medicine!
At that moment, no one dared to discuss popularity.
With Luna’s current display of skills, she was undoubtedly the first ranked here!
Chapter 1.

“You go, girl!”
“From today onward, I’m her guardian. If anyone dares to say a bad word about her, I’ll dunk their heads. into the toilet bowl!”
“My goddess, you’re number one!”
“Who said that Luna couldn’t do it before? Come out. I want to fight you!”
“She’s friggin‘ amazing…”
The audience was equally excited and continuously praised and worshiped Luna.
The only two people who looked extremely displeased were Patrick and Frederic. They never thought that their joint efforts as the most capable doctors in Florence would be thwarted by a little girl who had just started learning medicine.
Now, they could only hope that the insect placed on the Wolf King had grown powerful enough.
At that moment, the dragon blood within Andrius‘ body was completely stimulated.
Roar!
A faint dragon’s roar resounded through his body, echoing in the surging blood. It sounded omnipresent.

Chapter 653
Chapter 653
The Calamity Devouring Insect was intimidated by the dragon’s roar and instantly became disoriented. It flew away from Andrius‘ body and fell into Patrick’s hand in the blink of an eye.
Then, it let out two miserable screeches, flapped its wings twice, and turned into a puddle of thick blood
It was dead!
“Pfft…”
Patrick also spat out a mouthful of blood, his complexion paling.
Frederic’s expression also changed.
On the stage…
“Phew…”
Andrius breathed out a sigh of relief. The toxins were removed, and his qi surged. His bright eyes scanned the surroundings like a dragon overlooking the world. His magnificent aura shook everyone who saw him.
“Wolf…”
Luna wanted to ask how he was, but she subconsciously stepped back in fear when she met Andrius‘ gaze. She felt like a king was peering down at her from above.
She felt insignificant, inconsequential, and awestruck.
Was this the might of the Wolf King?
She was in love!
Luna summoned her courage and raised her head again. “Wolf King, are you okay?”
Andrius nodded with a smile. “I’m fine.”
“That’s great.” Luna breathed in relief, and her smile was so beautiful that it stunned Andrius.
The audience was already amazed by Luna’s continuous and miraculous techniques. They all had their eyes wide and mouths large enough to fit a fist. Their expressions were reverential as if she was a deity.
On the other hand, Patrick and Frederic looked like they had eaten shit. Their expressions were dark. They had been saving this trump card, but Luna dealt with it so effortlessly.
The two of them fell into deep self–doubt and gloom.
They had devoted decades to their respective fields but were defeated by a little girl in her early 20s.
Had they been researching the wrong path all these years?
How could this be?
How could this happen?
“Sage Doctor!” someone suddenly shouted in the silence.
“Sage Doctor!”
“Sage Doctor!”
“Sage Doctor!”
The audience’s passion was instantly ignited like a stone thrown into a calm lake. They all shouted and
Chapter 653
cheered for Luna.
The entire hall was filled with praise for her!
“Ahem…”
Amidst the noise, Angus walked on stage with a smile on his face. “Dr. Hopkins and Dr. Mendez, according to your previous agreement, the championship of this competition belongs to Ms. Luna Crestfall.”
Patrick and Frederic’s expressions darkened further and they exuded reluctance, but in the end, they were helpless and could only remain silent.
“Therefore…” Angus looked at Luna and said loudly, “I hereby announce that the champion of the second Grand Medicinal Competition is…
“The Medical Sage, Luna Crestfall!”
It was a sudden and supreme honor.
The cheers were like tidal waves.
Luna was overwhelmed, and her delicate face was filled with confusion. She was dumbfounded. She just wanted to make a name for herself in the Grand Medicinal Competition and achieve some results so as not to disappoint the Wolf King’s teachings and expectations.
How did she end up winning the championship?
Life was truly full of surprises.
Right!
The Wolf King!
It must be the Wolf King!
Chapter 654
The Wolf King saw how hard she had worked and decided to give her this great honor.
Not only did he personally test the poison on himself, but he also patiently guided her step by step in front of the audience, making her the focus of the spectators and judges.
He was so selfless and great
Even if she dedicated her life to him this lifetime and the next, she might not be able to repay him back in
full
Andrius saw her space out and hurriedly nudged her with his elbow.
“Ah.”
Luna snapped back to her senses and went up on stage.
“Ms. Crestfall, congratulations on winning the Grand Medicinal Competition. This trophy belongs to you!”
The one presenting the trophy was the committee head of the Medical Society, Claude Martin.
As he looked at Luna, he remembered the various extraordinary techniques she displayed earlier and
could not help but exclaim, 1 never expected this.
I’ve been studying medicine for many years and believe that there are few who can surpass me in Florence I wasn’t able to comprehend so many profound acupuncture techniques, but I didn’t expect you to easily demonstrate them, Ms. Crestfall.
“You’ve truly broadened my horizons There truly is no end to learning!”
Luna blushed at his words.
This trophy should belong to the Wolf King. She felt guilty holding it. However, she naturally could not say anything in this situation.
Thank you, Mr. Martin! I thank all the organizers and everyone else for your support and love…”
After she expressed her gratitude, Claude continued. “As for the prize of the competition, it’ll be distributed under the supervision of the Medical Society. Once again, congratulations, Ms. Crestfall.”
“Thank you!”
Then, Claude left the stage and left the position to Angus and Luna.
Angus said passionately. “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming to the Grand Medicinal Competition despite your busy schedules. I also thank all the doctors for their wonderful performances
“The Grand Medicinal Competition has come to an end! Now, let us bid farewell to all the doctors with
the warmest applause”
The applause erupted again for the nth time, and the audience left the venue.
Andrius waited outside for Luna
After all, the most important thing was the Klein family’s corpse which was in her hand..
However, before Luna came down, she was surrounded by countless reporters.
“Ms. Crestfall, how do you feel about winning the championship of the Grand Medicinal Competition?
“Ms. Crestfall, what do you think about the title “Medical Sage‘ that your fans have given you?”
“Ms. Crestfall, when did you learn so many astonishing acupuncture techniques, and why haven’t you demonstrated them before?”
“Ms Crestfall *
All sorts of questions came one after another.
Luna could only respond to each and every one of them with enthusiasm and politeness but without much substance. She might as well have written ‘perfunctory‘ on her face.
There was no helping it. Her mind was fully focused on the Wolf King.
Who cared about these people? She just needed to deal with them.
After more than an hour of interrogation, Luna finally managed to break free and found Andrius in a
corner.
“Wolf King, I wouldn’t have won the championship if it weren’t for you.”
Luna’s face was full of emotion, and her eyes were bright, reflecting the image of Andrius in his mask.
Andrius smiled and said nothing.
“Wolf King, I want to make a deal with you…”
Luna looked at Andrius without blinking 7’ll give you the championship reward from the Grand Medicinal Competition, but in exchange, I want you to help me save someone.”
Chapter 655
Andrius raised his brows and asked, “Who?”
“The wife of Bardan’s king, Catherine.”
This incident made Luna realize something.
Although she won the championship with the Wolf King’s help, the honor still fell on her.
Medical societies and researchers from all over Florence would flock to New Moon Corporation in the future.
The rise of the Crestfalls and the flourishing of New Moon Corporation was just a matter of time. They would soar to the heavens. In the future, she would undoubtedly face elites from the capital and even the whole country or world.
Her every move would be scrutinized. There would be no room for mistakes.
Andrius was like a ticking time bomb. At least, in her eyes, his explosive temper could bring disaster to the Crestfalls at any moment.
Furthermore, his crime of assaulting the princess of Bardan would also hold her back. It was a stain and would limit the Crestfalls and New Moon Corporation’s development.
This was something that Luna would never allow.
Therefore, the best way to quickly separate from Andrius was to follow her grandfather’s instructions to cure Queen Catherine and persuade King Laurent to reduce Andrius‘ sentence or even pardon him.
That way, they would be even.
“The main reason why the king of Bardan came to Florence to observe the Grand Medicinal Competition is that Queen Catherine is suffering from a strange illness, and he’s looking for help.”
Luna explained, “As you probably know by now, my husband–in–name, Andrius Moonshade, has been arrested for assaulting Princess Yule. There’s a high chance that he’ll be sentenced to death.
“I want to gain King Laurent’s approval by curing Queen Catherine and using that to reduce Andrius‘ sentence. Then… I’ll divorce him.”
Luna suddenly thought of something…
After she divorced Andrius, she would boldly pursue the Wolf King!
Even if her title as the champion of the Grand Medicinal Competition was a phony, it was better than nothing. She should be worthy of the Wolf King.
A blush appeared on her cheeks as she thought of that.
Andrius touched his nose and agreed awkwardly. “Okay, I agree.”
First, he handed the prize to Luna, then he had to personally make a move to get the prize back. After that, he would use his medical skills to reduce his own sentence.
In the end, he would help her divorce him…
Damn, that really was confusing.
However, Andrius did not mind.
All he hoped was that the Crestfalls would develop better after he left so that Old Hagstorm could rest
assured.
In general, his goals were achieved today!
“Great, then it’s settled!”
Luna was in a great mood.
The sky was blue, the clouds were fluffy, the wind was warm, and the air felt sweet.
After this was done, she would be a free woman with no constraints at all.
Whether she became a fish in shallow water or an eager soaring in the sky would be all up to her!
It was a refreshing feeling!
“However, the reward hasn’t arrived yet. I’ll contact you after I receive it.”
Luna looked at her idol and smiled happily. Her eyes curved like crescent moons in the clear night sky, appearing beautiful and charming.
“Okay.”
The two parted ways.
As night fell, lights began to shine.
Luna received a call from Angus saying that the prize for winning the championship–the skeletal remains of the Klein family–had arrived.
She immediately called Andrius. “Wolf King, the championship prize has arrived. It’s in a warehouse 200 meters east of the main hall.”
“Okay, I’ll go over right now.”
Andrius hung up the phone and immediately went to the location.
Outside the warehouse…
“Hello, sir. The items are inside. Please check them!”
Luna had given the staff a heads–up, so when they saw Andrius wearing a mask, they were not surprised and let him pass.
Andrius nodded and entered the warehouse.
Swoosh!
Whoosh!
Whistle!
Just as Andrius walked past the security post, several of them suddenly lunged at him. Their faces became ferocious, and their eyes went blank as if they had gone crazy.
“Huh?”
Andrius frowned slightly at the sudden situation, but his movements were quick. He knocked down all the security personnel with just a few punches and kicks.
Chapter 656
However, he did not deal the finishing blow.
He could sense that these security guards were under someone else’s control.
Buzz…
Just then, a buzzing sound came from the darkness nearby.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of blood–red insects flew over and entered the orifices of the security personnel.
At the same time, talismans fell from the sky and burst into flames upon contact with the security guards, releasing black smoke that also entered their nostrils.
“Heh…”
Andrius could not help but sneer.
It was Patrick and Frederic!
Swoosh!
Crash!
Crack crack crack!
The security guards who had been knocked down by Andrius stood up again. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they charged at him with the intention of tearing him to pieces.
This time, they were agile and powerful.
Andrius blocked a few attacks and instantly felt tremendous pressure.
However, he could bring himself to use lethal force against these innocent people who were being manipulated. He was worried that his silver needles might damage their nerves.
After dealing with the insects, they both thanked Andrius. They knew everything regarding the situation. today, Luna’s skills, and Andrius‘ identity.
“No problem.” Andrius waved his hand and looked into the dark distance, where the branches were shaking. He immediately made a decision. “Please help me guard the remains inside.”
Under the pale moonlight, two figures rapidly moved in the distance. They were Patrick and Frederic.
Chapter 657
Old Hagstorm turned around, causing Andrius‘ eyes to widen. He was bleeding from all orifices, and his face was ferocious, radiating a terrifying aura.
Chapter 658
“You’ll become my most powerful puppet. Then, you’ll obey my command and kill everyone in the Crestfalls!
This was an intolerable act!
Andrius glared intently at Patrick, his eyes flickering coldly. It was as if an enraged beast was speaking
“Are you prepared to die?”
A chilling killing intent spread through the air, shrouding the valley.
