Chapter 160
“What?”
Everyone turned to look.
Sure enough, they found her just as Lily said. Sheila, whose condition seemed to have improved a while ago, now looked much paler than before, and more frost had formed on her brows and hair.
From the way things looked, not only had her condition not improved, it even worsened.
“Dr. Shane, whatever is going on?” Caden’s brows knitted together tightly, his expression stern.
“This is most peculiar. Technically speaking, she should be fine after the coldness has been expelled.” Malcolm found Sheila’s condition very strange. She had been fine just a while ago; how did her condition worsen in just the blink of an eye?
“What do we do now, Dr. Shane?” Caden questioned persistently.
“Don’t be anxious. Let me give it another try.” Malcolm didn’t give up just yet. He used the same technique to rid Sheila of the coldness within her.
But the results were the same. In just under three minutes, Sheila’s condition went back to square one. It was as though the coldness within her was never–ending. It was truly bizarre.
“What’s going on?” Malcolm was baffled. It was then that he finally realized the severity of the situation at hand.
“Dr. Shane, it is true that you have amazing needling skills to get rid of the cold, but what you did was just a temporary solution. It will not eradicate the root cause of the issue,” Dustin spoke up.
However, that elicited some dissatisfaction from the onlookers.
“That’s nonsense! Who are you to doubt Dr. Shane’s skills?” Xavier shot him a murderous glare.
“Exactly! You’re just a rascal who’s still wet behind the ears! How dare you speak out of turn so shamelessly?” The crowd was outraged.
Dr. Shane was considered a legendary figure in the medical field! They would not tolerate a random kid
criticizing him freely!
“If you do not trust me, then go ahead and try as many times as you wish.” With that, Dustin held his tongue and said no more.
“Oh no! Sheila’s pulse has disappeared!” Lily cried out suddenly.
The crowd turned to look and noticed that she was in very bad shape.
“Dr. Shane! Quick! Save my daughter!” Caden lost his cool and urged Dr. Shane forward.
Malcolm dared not waste another second and immediately applied more needles to Sheila’s pressure points to rid her of the coldness and steady her pulse.
However, the results were not satisfactory, to say the least.

Chapter 160
The Polarfrost seemed to always come back no matter what he did, and Dr. Shane was finally rendered
helpless.
In all the years he had practiced medicine, he had never seen such a peculiar condition.
“I’m truly sorry, but—I’m afraid I won’t be able to help with this condition.” After a bout of effort to save Sheila,
Malcolm could only shake his head in resignation.
“What? You can’t help?” Everyone was bewildered when they heard that. Nobody had expected him to say
such a thing.
If such a legendary figure could not help her, then who could?
“Please, Dr. Shane, think of something! You must save my daughter! Right! I have a Gozoraberry! Will that help?
“Caden panicked.
“Gozoraberry?” Malcolm’s eyes lit up but quickly dimmed again.
“No doubt the Gozoraberry is a precious herb with properties to expel coldness and improve circulation, but
with how things stand right now, it wouldn’t be of much help anymore.”
The coldness within Sheila seemed unending, and simply expelling it didn’t seem to do the trick.
