The Strongest Warrior’s Revenge

Chapter 27

The current state of Layla astonished and shocked not only Jackson and Caleb but also Ruby. Their pupils displayed amazement and even fear, leaving them in a state of astonishment, bewilderment, and a hint of fear. When had they ever seen Layla in this state, using such a tone to address. them?

The previous Layla had always been meek and cautious.

The current situation was different, even contradictory.

She dared to call Jackson and Ruby by their names directly!

Besides that, she told them that she was no longer their adopted daughter from that onward.

The most important one was that she threatened Jackson and Ruby. She further threatened them, claiming she wouldn’t let Jackson off the hook if he called her a ‘wretch’ or ‘bastard’ again.

After a brief moment of bewilderment and confusion, Jackson’s face contorted into a malicious expression. He couldn’t believe that the previously submissive and timid Layla would dare to threaten him or take any action against him.

She wouldn’t let him off the hook anymore.

He shouted directly at Layla.

“Fine! You ungrateful parasite! Without the Taylor family, what are you? I’d like to see how you plan to deal with me! Let’s see how you dare not spare me,” yelled Jackson.

Listening to Jackson’s words, Layla’s face bore a serene smile, much like Gavin’s.

She spoke with interest, “Jackson, don’t forget that I have been managing the Taylorizon Group all these years. Even though I don’t hold any official position, my understanding of the Taylorizon Group is much deeper and far surpasses yours.

“Similarly, I know how to bring the Taylorizon Group to its knees, crumble into oblivion, and ruin its reputation.”

“What!” expressed Jackson when he heard Layla’s words.

Layla’s words caused Jackson’s brows to furrow, and fear and panic were

evident in his eyes.

He realized Layla’s words were far from empty threats.

Although Layla had worked in the company all these years, and it had always been under Jackson and Ruby’s direction, her words were

confident and determined.

Indeed, Layla had no official role within the company, but her knowledge and profound understanding of the Taylorizon Group surpassed that of anyone else present.

Layla’s words were not mere empty threats.

“You,” Jackson stammered, his voice trembling.

“You… how could you?” continued Jackson.

Jackson was speechless and could only stammer in response.

But at that moment, Layla stopped paying attention to Jackson.

Instead, she confidently turned to Gavin and said, “Gavin, I believe in you. Do what you must; no one here will dare to stop you.”

In fact, from the moment Layla took her stand, Gavin had already cast an appreciative gaze her way.

Her current transformation brought a sense of contentment to Gavin’s heart.

Layla was finally standing up for herself and learned to resist.

With a gentle smile, Gavin raised his thumb to Layla and nodded in approval before proceeding to Brooke’s side.

“Brat, you…”

Both Jackson and Caleb looked at Gavin’s actions with faces filled with shock and anger.

However, at that moment, they didn’t dare to stop Gavin.

On the one hand, they knew they couldn’t defeat him and were afraid of being effortlessly defeated by him with a single hand.

On the other hand, they were worried that Layla might use her knowledge about the Taylorizon Group to ruin their family business completely.

After some time, all the surroundings remain silent.

With those annoying ones out of the way, Gavin could finally quietly begin treating Brooke.

He first placed three of his fingers on Brooke’s pulse.

As expected, the previous physician, Harris, had some skills that aligned with his words.

However, there was one point he had gotten wrong.

Brooke’s condition is characterized by rapidly declining bodily functions, but it’s not a state of imminent death. Instead, it appears that his body’s. functions have been affected for specific reasons, causing him to enter a state of dormancy.

The needle technique used by the previous physician, Harris, involved forcibly activating Brooke’s internal organs, causing them to operate at an excessive level, which could have been detrimental to his current state.

If Brooke had truly been on the brink of death, Harris’s technique might have had some utility. At the same time, this technique would be helpful if Brooke were on the verge of death.

However, if Brooke were treated with such a technique at this stage, he would undoubtedly result in instant death.

Gavin didn’t hesitate any longer. He gently closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing.

The next moment, a buzzing sound filled the air.

A gust of wind sounded.

Gavin’s right hand suddenly lifted, and a silvery cold light appeared between his right index finger and middle finger. Most importantly, this silver light also had a faint airflow fluctuation, as if Gavin had

released his inner energy through his fingertips.

That’s right, Gavin’s initial move set everything into motion.

With just this one move, Harris, who was sitting at a distance, couldn’t help but exclaim in the next second.

He said in astonishment, “Miraculous moxa roll?”

But immediately after, he shook his head.

He said in disbelief and a low voice, “It’s impossible, absolutely impossible! It couldn’t be!

“The miraculous moxa roll has been lost for over a hundred years. How… How could a young man in his twenties possess this set of acupuncture techniques?”

However, the next moment, Gavin’s right hand firmly landed on Brooke’s

forehead.

Then, Gavin raised his left hand again, and once more, a silver edge appeared, accompanied by a faint flow of energy.

Subsequently, Gavin’s left and right hands continued to alternate, administering and applying the acupuncture treatment.

It seemed that the airflow generated by his hands had resonated with the surrounding air, creating a humming sound.

And around Brooke’s body, it was as if a nearly invisible protective shield tightly enveloped him.

The energy flow and fluctuations seemed to create a pattern on Brooke’s body, resembling something like a celestial chart or the patterns of a human pulse.

Harris couldn’t contain himself any longer when he saw Gavin’s actions.

With a sudden motion, he sprang to his feet from the ground. He stood up abruptly, trembling, pointing toward the scene before him.

His right hand trembled as he pointed at the scene ahead, and his pupils shook continuously, fully expressing the word “unbelievable” on his face.

His lips quivered as he stuttered intermittently.

“This… This is really… the miraculous moxa roll?” said Logan in a surprised tone.

Afterward, he rushed to a nearby place, where his medical kit was as if caught in a frenzy and a gust of wind.

He rummaged through boxes and cabinets, searching for a book from an unknown era, and immediately flipped it open.

The images and textual descriptions in the book were astonishingly identical to the scene he witnessed in front of him.

“It’s real! It’s the miraculous moxa roll! No way, I can’t believe that!” exclaimed Harris in disbelief.

Harris’s entire body started trembling uncontrollably as if he had gone mad.

He gazed at Gavin’s figure with a sense of excited hunger in his eyes, even accompanied by a kind of fanaticism.

On the other side, anxious and frantic, Caleb rushed to Harris urgently and nervously spoke as he approached him.

“Dr. Harris, please think of a way to stop him! Don’t let him be! We can’t let him treat my grandfather!” said Caleb.

“Stop him?” Harris turned to Caleb with a strange and puzzled expression and asked, “Stop him from doing what?”

Caleb pointed toward Gavin, saying, “Stop that jerk from harming my father.”

With a resounding “smack,” Harris raised his hand before Caleb could finish his sentence and delivered a forceful slap across Caleb’s face.

The force of the slap was nowhere near as powerful as Gavin’s, as Gavin is more powerful and able than him.

However, this action left Caleb in a state of confusion.

“You… Dr. Myers, why did you do that? Why are you slapping me? Did I say something wrong?” Caleb questioned, perplexed.

Despite the Taylor family’s high status, Caleb was still a member of the family. However, his status didn’t hold much weight in front of the top physician, Harris, in Riverrun.

Harris, with a look of anger in his eyes, waited for Caleb to respond.

Harris stared at Caleb angrily and said, puzzled, “You wanted me to stop Dr. Clifford from saving your father? Do you want your father to die?”

With Harris’s outburst, Caleb was left utterly bewildered and taken aback.
