"Wait!" Clutching his bitten arm, Frederick asked, "Can't he be treated here?"Chad glanced at Frederick. "What? He can't leave the household? If that's the case, then you'll need to find someone else."Benjamin sneered, "Hmph, if you can't cure him, just admit it. Stop pretending like you can."Roar! Roar!Bang! Bang! Bang!There was the sound of someone banging on the door from inside the room. Michael was frantically banging against it.It frightened Benjamin so much that he ran straight to the gates."That's a zombie. He's not a living person anymore. There's no cure for it. If you ask me, just shoot him in the head and be done with it!"The place fell silent, and everyone looked at Benjamin.No one came forward to refute Benjamin's words. All of them remained silent.Chad ignored Benjamin and pulled Frederick's arm to examine the wound.From his Clairvoyant Eye, Chad quickly discovered that the wound was covered in black energy.He saw something slowly wriggling inside

Chad looked at Imperious in confusion. "You said that Evergrow is good stuff?""Of course! With Evergrow, beings like us, covered in fur and horns, can transform our bodies into human forms!" Imperious said proudly, explaining how non-humans could transform into humans."Evergrow, to put it simply, is formed from the remains of dead humans. As long as people die, Evergrow will continue to grow. When animals with power consume Evergrow, they can use their bodies to transform into human forms."That was the first time Chad had heard that explanation, realizing that the emergence of Evergrow was related to humans. "Do you know why we can't transform into humans anymore? There's a saying that after the founding of the country, creatures could no longer become spirits? It's actually the same reason."Imperious opened up and started talking about why the animals could not transform anymore."Essentially, it's because humans have eliminated Evergrow through various methods. For instance,

Chad looked at the writhing, black, viscous substance on the ground, shocked.He had not realized he was infected. Why had the Evergrow been expelled from his body after using the fire folk's breathing technique?Imperious saw the Evergrow. He treated it like a treasure and quickly scooped it into a bottle. "With this, the Weasel family can produce a true demon!"Chad asked in confusion, "Can this really allow a guardian immortal to transform into a human?""A demon, not a human. It will transform a beast into a bipedal demon!" Imperious explained excitedly, playing with the bottle and sighing with emotion. "The times are changing. This era is finally ending, and a new one is beginning."Chad did not understand it and did not want to. He urgently needed to solve the Long family's problem, so he quickly left the bunker. As he ascended, he saw that the underground villa was bustling with activity.The women of the Inkwell Clan had returned and were excitedly sharing their purchases

"I feel comfortable, and my illness seems to be gone. My body feels even better than before. How is this possible?" Michael stood up, moving his body and feeling the significant changes with astonishment.Chad watched him, feeling puzzled as well. He did not understand how Michael's injuries had healed."Michael, you're healed!" Frederick was the first to wake up. He was overwhelmed with joy when he saw Michael restored to normal."Brother, I'm fine now. I'm sorry for making you worry.""That's all that matters. The crisis for the Long family is finally over!" Frederick wept with relief. He had been terrified because the Long family's treasure appraisal event was scheduled in a few days.That event was crucial for Michael to network and build connections. If Michael's illness had not been cured, the news could have led to the Long family's collapse overnight.With that crisis averted, Frederick could breathe easily and focus on the event.After that, Frederick turned to Chad and

"Cynthia, please don't make fun of me. They are not my harem. They were my patients."Chad smiled bitterly and explained the origins of the Inkwell Clan assassins, finally looking at Cynthia with a wry smile."They're ruthless assassins, not what you think."Cynthia's eyes lit up as she listened and suddenly laughed cheerfully."So, they currently have no jobs or income sources, right?"Chad nodded helplessly, and Cynthia's smile grew even brighter."That's easy then, leave it to me! I'll explain things to Matilda and Fifi, or else you'll be in serious trouble today!"Chad could not help but shiver at Cynthia's reminder.However, Chad still felt uneasy and wanted to confirm with Cynthia. "How do you plan to help them?""Matilda's Skywood Group is currently being established, so let them work there!" Cynthia said, glancing toward the villa in the backyard with a teasing smile."They're skilled assassins, so if we encounter difficult clients, we won't have to worry about our pe
