Davis was still healing people even after two hours had passed. He still had enough soul force as he consumed a soul force replenishing pill that allowed him to maintain his efficiency.

Nonetheless, he heard there were only three more women left to heal, and after that, there were around twelve men.

This kind of distribution in the victims almost made him feel like Venomweaver Zamak had hatred against women or something, although it could just be randomized in an attempt to break off the pressure emanated by the Zyrus Family's Grand Elder.

Nevertheless, he was quickly brought in a new patient by Panqa and Lanqua together, unusually than in other cases, causing his brows to twitch as he more or less expected this person to appear before him.

Blue veins adorned her entire body like millions of centipedes were crawling in her body, and her pale skin appeared to be almost translucent in contrast to the vibrant colors of her golden robe only made it seem worse that no sane person would possibly near her in fear of being affected with the same poison that haunts her.

Her hair was jet black, spread out over the pillow in disarray. Her delicate features, smooth and symmetrical, were accentuated by her pallor. Her lips were a faint pink, parted slightly as she breathed softly in her slumber.

Despite her sickly appearance, there is a peacefulness about her, as if she is in a deep and restful sleep. Her beauty is striking, yet there is also a fragility to her as if she could be easily broken.

The very sight of her was breathtaking, yet there was also a frailty to her, as though she could be easily broken with just a tap of one's finger.

"This is... the Golden Crow Clan Patriarch's wife?"

Davis asked, causing Panqa to give a light nod.

"Yes. She's his third wife, El-na Goldsun."

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch was obviously an immortal beast, but his third wife was a human. He could see that the lines separating races was almost nonexistent here since even a Patriarch-level character was able to marry a person of another race.

Moreover, she didn't seem to belong to the Golden Crow Clan, as her features were different.

He couldn't help but like this acceptance.

Just as he was about to ask Panqa and Lanqua to leave, he noticed them being fidgety.

"Is there something else?"

"Mo Tian... her clan's elders said for you to be extremely careful in treating her..."

Lanqua hesitantly opened her mouth and spoke, causing Davis to nod calmly.

"I know, but I can't say for sure that I could cure her. After all..."

He turned to look at her El-na Goldsun along with the twins and saw that the level of severity was too high that it could be rated at Peak Immortal King Grade.

"We also tried to make the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch understand that there were some patients that we couldn't fully cure but at least allowed them to have their life before a greater cure could be found sooner or later. He said that he understands, that if you're unable to clear the poison, he won't blame you."

Lanqua continued, causing Davis to smile.

"That's reassuring..."

"If possible, they also wanted us to preside over while you cure-"

"That's non-negotiable." Davis shook his head, "I'm not demonstrating my treatment method to anybody. If they want someone to preside over in this room, ask them to remove their people as I wouldn't treat them anymore."

Lanqua's expression turned wry, "That's what we also said, but they insisted, so we're just relaying it to you..."

"That's fine. You two have worked hard..."

"Oh no-"

"You were the one who cured them. Not us..."

Panqa shook her hands while Lanqua also shook her head, not taking any credit for this job which made Davis feel that they were too polite. After all, he had just slapped them in the face by indirectly saying that they weren't trustable yet despite their help which would've offended any sane person.

Perhaps, it had to do with the fact that they were interested in him, but Davis didn't want to take advantage of their kind and genuine thoughts for him.

Shortly, he sent them outside and began curing El-na Goldsun to the best of his ability.

========

Outside, the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch was standing in front of the palace that was now being called Mo Tian's Infirmary. However, he continued to remain silent with his eyes closed, waiting for someone to appear outside.

Twenty minutes passed, causing many gazes to be cast at him with some strangeness. However, he was like a solid rock, still waiting.

But suddenly, the palace's gates opened, and a few people walked out.

Panqa and Lanqua carried El-na Goldsun while Davis walked in front of them, appearing calm and steady.

But instantly, many soul senses scraped past him, causing his expression to change.

"Our apologies."

However, before he could even respond, the soul senses were taken away while a few elders of the Golden Crow Clan bowed their heads as they cupped their hands.

*Boom!~*

Davis furiously raised his hand, pointing at them when they were suddenly sent flying by a sphere of golden flames exploding on them, causing him to blink as he turned to look at the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch.

"My sincere apologies that my elders were rude, young Mo Tian. However, I hope that you will forgive them."

Having heard that and looking at the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch completely bow, Davis was momentarily at a loss.

He couldn't believe these elders who were sent flying just checked out his crotch. He could guess that they were checking traces for sexual acts, but still, it was completely offensive that he almost blew his cover.

He controlled his rage and clenched his fist, bringing it back to rest before he took a deep breath and opened his mouth.

"Due to the severity, I could only relieve the danger of the poison and not the advance of the poison itself as it became deeply rooted in her. The poison would also advance, but if people help keep her stable, then she could survive for three to four months. If not, the poison will advance faster and cause her to die within four to eight days."

Davis gestured, causing Panqa and Lanqua to deliver El-na Goldsun to her husband, the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch. The latter took her into his arms out of bed without a superstitious fear of the poison and narrowed his eyes in worry, gazing at her with love before raising his head to look at Davis.

"I'm grateful. I won't forget this favor."

Quickly, two other exquisite beauties took away El-na Goldsun from him and used their senses to check her health. At the same time, they nodded toward the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch, causing him to finally reveal a satisfied smile at Mo Tian.

"You are indeed a man of discipline, not falling for any amount of temptation that comes your way. If you need any kind of help, don't hesitate to look for me, brother!"

He enunciated and waved his hand in a declaring manner, causing Davis to reveal an odd smile.

"Then I'll take you up on that offer when I need it."

"Aha! That's good."

The Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch left in a good mood with his clan while Davis was also inwardly dancing, having gained a free ticket to the celebratory banquet of the Fire Phoenix Clan and the Earth Dragon Clan.

After all, the Golden Crow Clan said that they were attending this event!

He couldn't believe by wanting to help Nightveil survive, he achieved something that he had been aiming to do ever since he heard of that information, not to mention becoming closer to the Golden Crow Clan's Patriarch, which was a good result for this tiring labor he had performed!
