Aurora's eyes widened in shock. She touched the blood on her face and looked over at Alicia on the bed, who
was coughing up blood.
Kenan and Brian were equally shocked by the sudden turn of events. No one anticipated that after drinking the
Enigma Mist, Alicia's condition would deteriorate.
"Dr. Quake! What... What's going on?" Brian asked anxiously.
"Dr. Quake! You assured US that the Enigma Mist would bring my sister back from the brink. Why is she coughing
up blood now?" Aurora was frantic.
"Don't worry. It's just a minor setback. Letcheck her again," Kenan reassured them.
He quickly approached Alicia to take her pulse and frowned. "This is unexpected. Her pulse is weak, and her
blood circulation is poor.
"These symptoms suggest poisoning. The Enigma Mist should have detoxified her. But why isn't it working?"
The Enigma Mist was supposed to cure any poison and extend life. Just a sip should have stabilized Alicia's
condition. But this unforeseen reaction left him perplexed.
"Dr. Quake, what's going on with my sister? Do you truly have the ability to cure her?" Aurora's expression was a
mix of anxiety and fear.

A moment ago, Alicia was fine. But after Kenan removed the silver needles and fed her the medicine, her
condition worsened. It raised Aurora's doubts about Kenan's medical skills.
"Of course. | can." Kenan took a deep breath and said calmly, "Although the Enigma Mist didn't have the desired
effect, | have other methods to remove the toxins from her body."
"Whatever it takes, just cure my sister first!" Aurora urged.
"Don't worry. My acupuncture technique is highly regarded in the martial world. Handling this case of mild
poisoning is a breeze," Kenan said confidently.
Being known as a miracle doctor wasn't without reason. If the Enigma Mist didn't work, he would use silver
needles to remove the poison.
"Aurora, don't worry. With Dr. Quake here, everything will be fine. Just stay calm and don't distract him," Brian
said.
Aurora nodded upon hearing that. Though anxious, she managed to keep her emotions in check.
"Sanny, bring the silver needles." Kenan stretched out his hand.
His disciple swiftly understood the gesture. He retrieved a packet of silver needles from the medical kit and laid
them out before Kenan.
With a flick of his wrist, Kenan had three needles between his fingers. Then, he precisely inserted them into
Alicia's shoulders and chest.
"Hold her up," Kenan commanded.
Aurora didn't hesitate. She quickly propped the unconscious Alicia into a sitting position with her back facing
Kenan.
"Pay attention. This technique is called the Styx Passage," Kenan remarked.
He flicked his wrist as five silver needles appeared between his fingers. The needles shot out and hit Alicia's
neck, back, and waist with precision.
"Again!" he said as he sent five more needles flying toward Alicia.
Every needle hit its mark, which showcased Kenan's mastery of the technique. Such skill couldn't be attained
without decades of practice.
"Breakthrough!"
After the needles were in place, Kenan used his index and middle fingers to press firmly on the midline of Alicia's
back.
Her body convulsed, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark, clotted blood. It splattered on the wall.
With that, her spasming body gradually returned to normal. Even her lips, once pale, started regaining color.
"Most of the toxins in her body have been cleared out. Keep feeding her the tonic, and | believe she'll be fine
soon," Kenan said. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he looked somewhat tired.

Despite the impressive display, the technique drained him significantly, and it left him with barely any true
energy. It would take him at least a few days to recover.
If it hadn't been necessary, he wouldn't have resorted to using the Styx Passage technique. However, for now,
the results seem promising.
"As expected of Dr. Quake. You're incredible!" Brian gave him a thumbs-up.
He praised, "I've heard about the Styx Passage technique-how it's said to perform miracles and even bring the
dead back to life. Seeing it demonstrated today, it absolutely lives upto its reputation!"
"Bringing the dead back to life might be an overstatement. But as long as the patient is still breathing, | can cure
them," Kenan said with a proud smile.
"You're too modest. If it weren't for you, Alicia might not have made it through today." Brian clasped his hands
together and looked at him in admiration.
"Dr. Quake, is she really going to be okay?" Aurora frowned as she looked at Alicia, who was still unconscious.
Alicia's complexion had improved slightly. But her breathing and pulse remained faint and showed no signs of
improvement.
"What? You don't trust my medical skills?" Kenan sounded displeased.
He put his hand behind his back and continued, "I've been in the martial world for so many years. There's never
been a disease | couldn't cure.
"| can assure you that as soon as she takes another sip of the Enigma Mist, she'll wake up immediately. If you
don't believe me, try it yourself!" 2
