Chapter 359 Shut Your Mouth

Caylic, naturally gentle and unassuming, had never sought recognition or engaged in rivalries. She

chose to be called “Dr. Lund” solely to foster a collaborative exchange of knowledge with her esteemed

and experienced predecessors.

If these respected elders had approached her with respect and openness, Caylie would have gladly

shared the nuances of her acupuncture techniques.

However, Axel’s dismissive scoff completely soured her mood, eliminating any desire she had for a

constructive dialogue.

Given these strained circumstances, Caylie found the idea of further interactions with the Chanaca

Traditional Medicine Association distasteful, to say the least. All she wanted was for them to leave and

return to where they came from without delay.

At this point, Axel, undeterred by the tension, voiced his opinion once again. “Mr. Patel, it seems our

expedition to Jadeborough has been fruitless. We should leave as soon as possible, as I have several

patients waiting for my acupuncture expertise back home.”

“How foolish and ignorant. Can’t you just keep quiet?”

Duncan, who had been restraining his mounting frustration, finally reached his breaking point.

Overwhelmed with indignation, he vehemently rebuked Axel, his voice filled with fury.

The situation quickly escalated when Axel, taken aback by Duncan’s outburst, sneered and insinuated,

“Duncan, you must be crazy. Your mentorship under a young woman in her twenties must’ve been

motivated by less than honorable intentions, it seems.”

His words implied a personal infatuation rather than a genuine pursuit of knowledge.

After all, one would need to cover for their robbing the cradle.

Duncan fiercely refuted Axel’s insinuation, saying, “Stop spouting nonsense! Axel, for someone like you

to be considered an acupuncture master is a blatant affront to the dignity of the Chanaea Traditional

Medicine Association.”

Upon hearing Axel’s words, anger surged through Duncan, and his composure tectered on the edge.

Emrys, too, found his usually calm demeanor replaced by a frosty chill.

While Emrys had restrained himself when Axel made disdainful comments about his sister earlier, this

latest jab struck a nerve deep within him.

The sanctity and honor of his sisters were lines he considered inviolable, not to be tarnished by jest or

mockery

As Emrys’s patience wore thin and he was on the verge of confronting Axel with more than just words.

the mood, especially for Axel. His features contorted with a mix of shock and seething animosity, a

testament to the depth of his disdain.

The newcomer was Marley Shaw, a Kepranian.

His reputation as an acupuncture prodigy preceded him, enhanced by the flair of his unique golden

needles that eamed him the nickname “Golden Needle Ghostly Hands

indelible scar on Axel’s pride and cast a long shadow over the associations honor

Marley’s triumph had been a boon for his compatriots from Repraria, who seized upon it to bolster their

contentious claim that acupuncture originated from their realms.

This assertion was a bitter pill for the Chanaea Traditional Medicine Association. fueling their fury as

they struzzled to effectively counter the narrative

Despite accumulating a wealth of historical evidence to validate the origins of acupuncture and

traditional medicine in Chanaea, the stubborn refusal of Keprarians to acknowledge these facts only

pensifed the dispute.

Their argument was simple yet frustratingly dismissive: “If acupuncture truly belonged to your heritage,

how could you have possibly suffered defeat?”

As a result, they boldly claimed acupuncture as their own, even going so far as to propose its inclusion

as part of their manonal intangible cultural heritage.

Chanaea had consistently argued that their defeat was not a reflection of skill or heritage, but rather a

strategic decision to withhold their most skilled experts from the battle.

However, their rivals in Kepraria responded with mockery, taunting. If such experts truly exist, why not

present them Your claims seem more like fanciful boasts than truths.”

Their hope was to unveil these hidden talents, urging them to step forward and assist in reclaiming

tarnished prestige of their Association while affirming the true origins of their beloved art.
