A Healer’s Journey (Finnegan and Nuthana) Novel novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Sawyer Aiello 

Suddenly, he felt a chill coursing through his entire b*dy, his strength slowly ebbing away. 

There was an odd itch on his b*dy as if being nibbled by insects. 

Clearly, it was a case of poisoning. 

Finnegan spat out a mouthful of blood, then stood up with a grin. “As expected of a Grandmaster who has reached Absolute Rank of Terra Realm, your resistance is impressive. It took a few minutes longer than I anticipated for the effects to kick in.” 

“How could you possibly poison me, you scoundrel?” 

From the beginning until now, Golden Hades hadn’t noticed anything out of the ordinary. 

Finnegan narrowed his eyes and said, “Why don’t you ask Hades after you’re dead!” 

He had silently sprinkled the powder of the poison on him after Doom Star retreated. During the battle, Golden Hades had been panting heavily, and there were wounds on his b*dy. 

He had inhaled the powder, while some had seeped into his b*dy through the wound. 

This was one of Finnegan’s strategies, and naturally, it was not something he could reveal publicly. 

Channeling his spiritual energy, he charged toward Golden Hades again, intending to quicken the flow of Golden Hades’ blood through the heat of battle, thereby accelerating the spread of the poison. 

“You sneaky brat, hand over the antidote to me!” 

Despite his physical discomfort, Golden Hades bravely faced the challenge and once again engaged in battle with Finnegan. 

The poison was taking effect, and he could only exert thirty percent of his 

Strength at this moment. 

Even though Finnegan was not at his peak, it would still take some time to defeat him. 

Moreover, he found his situation worsening as the battle progressed. 

Immediately, he understood Finnegan’s intentions, and he intensified his attack. His fists landed directly on Finnegan’s b*dy. 

Finnegan was hit hard, his b*dy continuously retreating, and he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. 

“Charge! Just hold him back!” 

Seeing this situation, Bradley immediately gave an order. 

Over a dozen elites of the Wahlstrom family drew their weapons and charged forward. 

However, they did not confront Golden Hades directly. According to Bradley’s strategy, they only stalled and did not attack, letting Golden Hades succumb to his own poison. 

1/4 

If he were at his peak, Golden Hades was confident that he could wipe out the elites of the Wahlstrom family with a single move. 

But now, he could only be held back, unable to approach Finnegan. 

Romona stepped forward to support Finnegan. “How are you feeling?” 

Finnegan exhaled, easing the discomfort brought on by the surging of his energy and blood. “I’ve underestimated the strength of a Terra Realm fighter of Absolute Rank!” 

Had he known that Golden Hades would still be so domineering despite being injured, he would have definitely changed his plan. 

He wouldn’t have been seriously injured by Golden Hades. 

Fortunately, in the end, he managed to trick Golden Hades, getting him poisoned. 

Romona snorted. “You have finally realized how arrogant you’ve been, haven’t you?” 

Drawing his hand back, Finnegan strolled forward while swallowing a wound medicine to ease his injuries. “Doom Star, lend me your knife!” 

Without a moment’s hesitation, Doom Star threw his ever-present saber to Finnegan. 

With the saber in hand, Finnegan leaped high into the air, slashing downward. 

Golden Hades could no longer contain his fury. “You despicable brat!” 

With both hands clasping the falling saber, he was still pushed back two meters by the force. 

An elite of the Wahlstrom family seized the opportunity, plunging his dagger directly into Golden Hades’ waist. 

With a loud cry, Golden Hades triggered a burst of his vital energy, causing the elite of the Wahlstrom family to spit out fresh blood and fall to the ground. This also pushed Finnegan back several meters, causing him to spit out another mouthful of fresh blood. 

Clutching the wound on his waist, Golden Hades felt his entire b*dy becoming colder and more uncomfortable. 

“You despicable coward, I will come back for you.” 

He forced himself to believe that he could take down Finnegan. 

However, even after he eliminated Finnegan, there was a high chance that he wouldn’t be able to escape either. 

He must first find a place to channel his energy and detoxify himself, ensuring his own survival before anything else. 

Bradley shouted, “Stop him!” 

Finnegan coughed and said, “There’s no need to stop this whetstone anymore, lest we push him into a corner and all hell breaks loose!” 

2/4 

He knew that Logan and others were lurking in the shadows. 

There was no way Golden Hades was going anywhere tonight. 

“Just you wait!” Golden Hades spat and ran off into the distance. 

Logan’s b*dy was tensed, as Golden Hades was heading his way. 

“You’re becoming more adventurous, daring to use a Terra Realm fighter of Absolute Rank as a whetstone. But aren’t you worried that the whetstone might turn into a guillotine?” 

Just at that moment, a burst of laughter echoed from an unknown source, accompanied by a man’s words of both helplessness and relief. 

Finnegan, who was already seated on the ground ready to watch Logan’s performance, was taken aback for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face. “I thought you would come looking for me as soon as I left the mountains. Why are you only showing up now?” 

Bradley and his daughter, Romona, along with the elite of the Wahlstrom family, all looked around in astonishment. 

Who is speaking? 

Where is the person? 

Logan’s eyes widened, and his b*dy trembled. “Is it him?” 

An inexplicable force of oppression descended from the sky at that moment, causing the fleeing Golden Hades to suddenly halt in his tracks. 

With a pale face, he asked anxiously, “Who is it?” 

He wanted to leave, but he couldn’t lift his legs. 

This was a fear he had never experienced in his almost eighty years of life. 

“What’s the matter? Did you miss me?” 

The voice of the unseen person echoed once again, making everyone feel as if he was right beside them. yet they couldn’t see anything. 

Finnegan pursed his l*ps. “Get lost. I haven’t heard from you in four years. I thought you were dead.” 

That voice let out a hearty laugh. 

Following that, a figure appeared a hundred meters away, leisurely walking in their direction. 

With each step he took, it seemed as if space itself had contracted, allowing him to traverse ten meters in a single stride.
