Chapter 166 Grandmaster
Upon seeing Chandler return, the acupuncturist’s anxiety immediately heightened. He was unsure of
how to explain the situation to the governor, but in the next second, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise,
“Grandmaster!”
The acupuncturist was none other than Mathias, who was also a disciple of Duncan. After Duncan
became a disciple of Emrys, it was only natural for him to address Emrys as his grandmaster.
Grandmaster? The York family members, who were originally filled with anxiety, were all taken aback
upon hearing that address from Mathias. Who is he calling his grandmaster?
Soon, their gaze shifted toward Emrys, as he was the only young man they didn’t recognize. They
figured Mathias was likely addressing him as “Grandmaster.”
However, that only served to further confuse the members of the York family. This young man is so
youthful. Could he really be Mathias‘ grandmaster?
Chandler, on the other hand, wasn’t overly surprised. In the medical field, those who excelled were
considered masters. Given that Emrys had even cured severe illnesses like Roger’s, he was fully
qualified to become Mathias‘ grandmaster.
“Elaborate his condition for me.” Emrys glanced at Mathias and spoke.
His impression of Mathias was indeed profound. When Caylie’s Apricot Hall was being suppressed,
Mathias was the first to rush to Apricot Hall’s aid. Although at that time, he did it out of respect for
Patrick, it was still a gesture of goodwill.
“Today, as usual, I was administering acupuncture to Old Mr. York. Everything was going smoothly until
it came time to remove the needles. Suddenly, one of the needles got embedded in his muscle. The
harder I tried to pull it out, the tighter that part of his muscle became,” Mathias quickly recounted the
situation.
Emrys nodded, stepping forward to take a closer look. He saw that the fine needle had been bent out of
shape, lodged firmly in Alfred’s left leg, specifically at the Gallbladder Acupoint on the outer side.
That was because Mathias had forgotten to relax Alfred’s muscles while removing the needle. That led
to muscle cramps, and the more force he used to pull out the needle, the more severe the muscle
spasms became. Naturally, Mathias was unable to extract the needle.
Chandler anxiously asked, “How is it, Dr. Lund? Is the situation serious?”
“It’s just a minor issue.” Emrys chuckled lightly, suddenly taking a silver needle from Mathias’s hand.
He then swiftly inserted it into the Femur Acupoint, located on the outer side of Alfred’s left thigh.
Suddenly, Alfred’s left thigh muscle tensed up while the muscles in his lower leg relaxed. Emrys
effortlessly removed the bent acupuncture needle, then used massage techniques to relax the thigh
muscle before removing the needle from the upper part as well.
“Gallbladder Acupoint and/Femur Acupoint both belong to the Gallbladder Meridian. The muscles of
these two acupoints alternately tighten and relax. When the upper muscle tightens, the lower one

naturally relaxes. This technique is called relieving a besieged ally by attacking the home base of the
besiegers.”
Emrys was explaining the principles of treatment, and Mathias was deeply educated. The latter was
amazed and exclaimed inwardly. He’s truly worthy of being the Grandmaster! How impressive!
The issue that had left Mathias, the deputy director of Jăzona Hospital, at his wit’s end was effortlessly
resolved by Emrys. The York family members were thoroughly impressed. No wonder Mathias has to
address Emrys, who’s so young, as his grandmaster. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with this title.
Chandler eagerly grasped Emrys‘ hand and said, “Dr. Lund, thank you so much. Won’t you reconsider
my daughter? She’s fair–skinned, beautiful, and has long legs!”
He sent ambiguous glances and made suggestive gestures toward Emrys.
If Roger had been here, hearing these words would have certainly provoked him into engaging in a
fight with Chandler.
Emrys gave a bitter smile and said, “That won’t do. I’m afraid my b*dy wouldn’t be able to handle it if I Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
were to deal with more women.”
Emrys politely declined the goodwill of Chandler.
That only served to augment Chandler’s admiration toward Emrys. Look at that. Dr. Lund is such a
gentleman.
When Emrys returned to Verdant Estate, Yelena, seeing Emrys returning alone, asked in surprise,
“Where’s Delia?”
“She’s staying in Summerbank and won’t be returning home for a while.”
Emrys initially thought that Yelena would be disappointed, but to his surprise, she said with an excited
face, “That’s great! Without Delia watching over us, we can do whatever we want. Heheh!”
Suddenly, Yelena pulled Emrys toward her, forcibly pushing him onto the couch, her smile gradually
turning sinister.
