“So you’re the physician General Brown recommended?”

Seeing the unexpectedly young appearance of the visitor, Martin Houston’s face revealed an interested smile.

Looking at the old man who casually disrupted the chess game and cheated once again, Harrison Houston revealed a wry smile, then looked up at David Jones.

The butler was right. The physician recommended by General Brown was the same person he met at the External Alchemy Tower.

At this moment, the male and female physicians attending Harrison Houston looked at each other in surprise.

Teacher said he would take them out to see the world, but they didn’t expect the medical expert mentioned by the teacher to be around the same age as them.

David Jones didn’t beat around the bush and directly said: “That’s right. I heard that Lord Houston is willing to exchange the Purifying Sutra and Martial Mushroom for an elixir that can prolong life. I wonder if that’s true.”

“Interesting.”

Feeling the confidence and fearlessness emanating from David Jones, Martin Houston, who had initially just wanted to give it a try, smiled.

“A hundred years. As long as you can extend my life for a hundred years, whether it’s the Purifying Sutra and Martial Mushroom or Houston’s legitimate daughters, anything I can give can be negotiated.” Martin Houston said generously.

There were as many as three legitimate daughters in the City Lord’s Mansion waiting to get married. Seeing that David Jones was able to become a Ghost King at such a young age, even if his medical skills were average, he wouldn’t mind marrying his daughter into the Houston family to attract a powerful expert.

“Sir, are you sure?” Harrison Houston’s address to David Jones suddenly changed.

“Of course. However, there are always exceptions. Before refining a Longevity Elixir, I need to first diagnose if Lord Houston’s body can safely digest the elixir.” David Jones said calmly.

Harrison Houston’s eyebrows slightly furrowed and then relaxed again.

As a Monarch Healer, he naturally understood the drawbacks of external alchemy.

Nowadays, any healer with some skill would diagnose the patient before refining the external alchemical medicine, lest the patient’s body is too weak to withstand the power of the external alchemy and dies faster than not being treated.

The old man’s health was already not optimistic. Instead of concealing his physical condition, he might as well give it a try.

However, despite this, before the diagnosis, Harrison Houston still wanted to test David Jones with a few words.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

After all, he hadn’t seen such a young Monarch or King-level healer even during his travels in Spring Mansion.

“May I ask which Longevity Elixir does the sir intend to refine? The Primordial Elixir, Age Elixir, Health Elixir, Life Elixir, or Vita Elixir?”

Harrison Houston listed the five external alchemies of Monarch level and above that he knew. Both the Life Elixir and the Vita Elixir were even of King-level rarity, which even he couldn’t refine.

“None of those. I have my own unique Longevity Elixir.” David Jones denied.

Upon hearing this, Harrison Houston and Martin Houston looked at each other, and both of their eyes revealed a touch of joy.

It was well known that it seemed as if the heavens intended to limit each type of Longevity Elixir to be used only three times. More than three times would be ineffective.

The five longevity elixirs mentioned by Harrison Houston had been consumed by Martin Houston with great expense. This was also the reason why no healers in Night County had been able to successfully extend Martin’s life for so many years.

Finding it hard to see hope, Martin Houston generously stretched out his pitch-black right hand.

“Is this the poison mark left by a Poisonous Scorpion’s sting?” David Jones’s eyes moved slightly, and he said softly.

“That’s right. Back then, the Scorpion King of Ghost Hunter Guilt entered the city trying to blood-sacrifice the entire city but was discovered and killed by me on the spot.” Martin Houston said proudly.

“But that dead scorpion did have some strength, and in exchange for hurting me before its death, it left an extremely vicious scorpion poison in my right hand.

Although I sought immediate treatment, I still suffered a severe loss of vitality due to the corrosive poison, losing about a third of my lifespan.”

Upon hearing this, David Jones activated the Illusion-Piercing Eye.

[Name]: Martin Houston

[Type]: Wood

[Bloodline Concentration]: Ghost Emperor (Epic Overlord)

[Strength Level]: Class VI Ghost King – later (Concealing strength with Mystic Arts, will advance to half-step Ghost Emperor after removal.)

[Status Introduction]: Like a centipede that doesn’t die even after being cut into a hundred pieces, he can still unleash the power of a half-step Ghost Emperor due to the Mystic Arts before the end of his life.

“Can you save him, sir?”

Seeing David Jones’ furrowed brows, Harrison Houston’s heart wavered, but Martin Houston wore an indifferent expression as if he had seen through life and death.

“There is a 90% chance.” David Jones calmly stated, as the crowd looked on in disbelief.

“The other 10% is because the rare elixir ingredients are hard to procure. If Lord Houston can collect the elixirs needed to create the Longevity Elixir, I have a 99% chance of extending your life by a century.”

Even with Martin Houston’s depth of experience, his face can’t help but show a hint of excitement upon hearing David Jones’ definitive words.

“Please tell us what elixirs are needed, sir. The Houston mansion will do everything we can to find them!”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Five-Claw Vine, Gentian Lotus, Dragon-Tooth Herb, Bone Flower, Blood Dragon Fat…” Without any hesitation, David Jones listed dozens of valuable elixirs.

Among them, the Five-Claw Vine is an Ice Type resource, named after the resemblance between its appearance and the claws of a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon; the Gentian Lotus is a Wood Type resource, nourishing the Wood Dragon Species to a great extent.

The Dragon-Tooth Herb is a Darkness Type resource, capable of enhancing the compatibility of Dragon-type Pets with Darkness attributes, while the Bone Flower is associated with Time-Type resources.

Lastly, the Blood Dragon Fat is both a Fire and Dragon-Type resource, aiding both David Jones and Daphne in nurturing their Flame Core.

That’s right—To hide the true elixir formula for the Longevity Elixir, David Jones spoke of the first five Level 6 resources purely as additional, unnecessary elixirs, and mostly sought benefits for their own Pets.

Of course, David Jones had cautiously not even mentioned the crucial adjuvant in this elixir formula—Mermaid Tears.

“Five-Claw Vine? What kind of elixir is that?” Harrison Houston frowned, as he had never even heard of the first elixir ingredient, let alone the subsequent ones!

David Jones explained, “This Longevity Elixir was modified from an ancient elixir formula, with many of the elixir names being completely different now.”

After finishing, David Jones began to describe the characteristics of the Five-Claw Vine.

“It grows in the wilderness, near where dragons dwell, has a mild taste with a bitter aftertaste, and resembles the claws of a golden dragon. Isn’t this the King-level elixir, the Five-Leaves Herb?” The disciple who attended to Harrison Houston on his left had a sudden realization.

“Yes, that’s correct.” David Jones nodded slightly, unafraid that difference in the names of elixirs would reveal his deception.

After all, the Flowery Kingdom is vast, each elixir has different names in different regions. It’s not uncommon for a King-level elixir to have ten or more synonyms.

“We could find all these King-level elixirs in Silver-Abyssal City, but the Bone Flower will be difficult to obtain,” Harrison Houston said with a furrowed brow.

The Bone Flower was a treasured collection of the External Alchemy Tower’s lord, located outside Silver-Abyssal City; as an elder, he had the opportunity to see it once.

“All I do is make the elixirs; I don’t provide the ingredients. Whether or not I can successfully create the Longevity Elixir depends on whether your mansion can gather the necessary elixirs,” David Jones reminded him.

Compared to Master-level Pharmacists in the Flowery Kingdom, his asking price was already quite fair!

After hearing this, Martin Houston was silent for a moment, then his eyes filled with determination, displaying the decisiveness of a City Lord.

“Give me three days; I will have all the elixirs prepared for you by then.”
