Chapter 521

Cyrus approached Jessie. Without beating about the bush, he said calmly, "Medicine is a tool of life and death. It's the ancestral medical creed your Sykes family has lived for generations. "For a healer to harm others is an unforgivable sin. Even if it were the young lord of the Hippocrates Sect, it would be a crime punishable by the whole world if he were ever found engaging in poison or venom." Jessie said, "Hmph, who are you to even mention the young lord of the Hippocrates Sect? You can only act tough in Jorsproburgh. Try that in Centuria and see what happens." Jessie had no qualms since she was completely in the dark about the truth. However, Evelyn was feeling uneasy as she had always thought no one in Jorsproburgh would know about venom. Venom had disappeared for a hundred years. The living healers in Jorsproburgh had never seen the symptoms of venom. Unexpectedly, Cyrus not only knew that Marshall had been planted with Blood Bat venom but also the fact that Wilson was a venom puppet. Who on earth was Cyrus? He looked to be just in his 20s. Knowing about Blood Bat Venom was one thing, but how could he know about venom puppets? Those had vanished for a thousand years. If all this was true, the Sykes family was in for big trouble. Venom had already claimed the lives of three prominent figures in Jorsproburg. "It's okay, Jessie. Young people have their temper. Let's not argue with Mr. Johnson. His sense of justice is a good thing," Evelyn said. "Grandma, you're still forgiving even though he's accusing us." Unexpectedly, Evelyn laughed and replied, "Haha, I've always appreciated talent. The Sykes family of Centuria has always been upright. We'd never use any venom. Mr. Johnson must have made a mistake." Jessie clearly felt that her grandmother's attitude had changed completely. Could she be afraid of Cyrus? Chris also felt that it was best to leave now. Since the control of the Hayeses had been taken away, there was nothing left to hold onto in Jorsproburgh. He looked at Marshall and said, "Jessie, I'll keep an eye on this mad old man. You guys take your grandmother away first. We won't interfere with the Hayes family's affairs anymore. We also won't invest any further. Jordan's veins were bulging with anger. These bastards just walked away after ruining the Hayes family. He was the one holding the bag in the end. "Marshall, please calm down. Wait until I finish the shareholders' meeting and then we'll discuss it further, okay?" Margot said. After all, Chris was a divine healer. He showed absolutely no respect for Marshall. "Marshall, if you don't want to live, just wait for death. You're already a decaying piece of wood. Don't seek death. With all due respect, everyone here is nothing but trash in the eye of the Sykes family," Chris declared. Initially, Cyrus wanted to say something to persuade Marshall. However, Chris' arrogance made him give up on that idea. There was no remorse even though they were the ones who caused the Fosters' suffering, almost to the point of extermination. Cyrus lamented and said, "The Sykes family of Centuria is truly beyond help. You're arrogant, ruthless, and heartless. You don't deserve the wealth you have now. It seems like the bloodline of the King of Medicine that lasted a thousand years is going to be destroyed in an instant." "Cyrus, don't push me to the point where I have to get physical," Jessie said angrily. "Jessie, let's go. Don't waste your breath on this nobody. I'll be dealing with him," Chris urged. Marshall knew that he would never have the chance to meet the core members of the Sykes in his lifetime once Evelyn left. He could never avenge his son. As Jessie pushed Evelyn to turn and leave, Marshall suddenly leaped up. Twenty silver needles were shot out, attacking like a storm from behind. "Hmph, you're looking for death!" As soon as Chris' voice dropped, 21 silver needles were shot out. Amidst a burst of exclamations in the meeting room, silver needles collided with silver needles. In the end, all fell to the ground. Only one silver needle was shot toward Marshall's heart, aiming to stimulate the Blood Bats within him. The moment the bats felt pain, they would devour his heart, causing Marshall to die in agony. "Marshall, be careful!" Margot shouted.
