The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Master Vail gritted his teeth, barely holding back his anger as he faced the kid in front of him.

“You’ve got some nerve,” he growled.

“I spared your mutt’s life and this is how you repay me? With disrespect?”

Charlie’s smirk only fueled Master Vail’s fury.

The kid was cheap, so cheap it made him want to strangle him.

But he knew better than to take things too far.

He couldn’t risk causing a scene in public, or worse, getting the police involved.

It was a delicate dance, trying to assert his dominance without going too far.

Master Vail had a reputation to uphold, after all.

But the more he tried to control his temper, the more it slipped through his fingers.

Charlie had a way of getting under his skin like no one else.

Despite being an eight-star martial artist, he knew better than to cross the police in a bustling metropolis like Aurous Hill.

He could take Charlie out with a single punch, no doubt about it.

But the aftermath of such a violent confrontation would be messy, to say the least.

The real problem was how to end the fight without becoming a wanted criminal in the city.

He couldn’t risk drawing unwanted attention to himself, not when he was so close to finding the Rejuvenation Pill.

He had his sights set on Dr. Simmons’ Clinic for a reason.

After scouring the city for information, he learned that Dr. Simmons was the most renowned traditional doctor in Aurous Hill.

There were rumors that he possessed a magic medicine that could cure even the most hopeless cases.

If those rumors were true, it was possible that Dr. Simmons had access to the same elixir that Stephanie Sun had taken.

He had tried to approach Dr. Simmons before, posing as a patient in need of medical attention.

While he was impressed with the doctor’s skills in traditional medicine, he quickly discovered that Dr. Simmons knew nothing about alchemy, let alone how to refine the elixir that he needed.

But he wasn’t one to give up so easily.

He hatched a plan to force Dr. Simmons into a medical competition, pitting his skills against his own.

If he won, he would take over the clinic and use it as a platform to attract other talented individuals to his cause.
