"Great!"
Billy began. A surge of powerful true energy flowed from his palm into Bartholomew's body.
"Mmm..." After a moment, Bartholomew let out a muffled groan, with a hint of pain flashing across his brow. He felt an unstoppable force rampaging through his body and constantly attacking his meridians as if it wanted to burst out of him. Fortunately, this intense pain only lasted for about 15 minutes before gradually subsiding.
20 minutes later, Bartholomew spat out some blood.
"Mr Dawson, it's done!"
Billy removed his hand from Bartholomew. And right after that, a strong aura emanated from Bartholomew's body. He had clearly reached the level of a Novice Battle Master.
"Billy... not only did you heal my injuries but you also helped me break through to become a Battle Master!" Bartholomew was shocked beyond belief.
"Mr Dawson, weren't you already at the peak of a warrior level before your injury? I just helped you raise two levels." Billy smiled faintly.
If other martial artists heard this statement they would feel envious. Many a person had to spend several years or even more than ten years to break through just two levels. Moreover, Bartholomew had crossed over into another tier, becoming a Battle Master, which few martial artists could reach in their lifetime.
"Mr Dawson, you can come down and move around now." Billy spoke up again.
"What? Does that mean I can stand on my own two feet?"
"Of course!"
Bartholomew took in a sharp breath, then bit his lip and tried to stand up.
"Thank you so much, Billy!" he exclaimed. As he spoke, he knelt down in front of Billy.
"Mr Dawson, it's a small favor." Billy said as he lifted Bartholomew up. "Besides, this only happened because of the Miles family."
"That's beside the point!" Bartholomew bowed deeply to Billy. "Thank you so much!"
"It's my pleasure. And please keep my identity secret for now."
"I see. Billy, was that Taoist Nine Needles?"
"You are indeed knowledgeable about many things, Mr Dawson."
Bartholomew felt shocked. After calming down his excitement, he asked again, "So Billy, are you one of the Doorway of Secret Essences faction?"
"I did use the Nine Needles of Secret Essences just now. But I wouldn't say I'm one of them. I have some connections to this faction. If there's a chance next time, I'll talk more with you in detail."
"Alright."
10 minutes later, they left the study and Billy resumed his disguise as before. The Dawson family was overjoyed when they saw Bartholomew's condition and expressed their gratitude to Billy one by one. Then Billy and Casey bid farewell and left.
"Grandpa, who is he? He's amazing! He cured your legs in such a short time! He must be a miracle doctor!" Laura exclaimed as she watched them leave.
"Bi-," Bartholomew suddenly paused.
In his mind flashed several pieces of information about Billy's identity. A man with abilities beyond a Battle General, proficient in Nine Needles of Secret Essences, having an unusual relationship with SHADOW and accompanied by another Battle General expert was none other than Billy Gardner, the king of the west and the head of SHADOW.
