Mr. Tu stood up and looked at Henric icily. He said sternly, "I know what the Cao family is thinking. Go back and tell Lamont to give up on this idea. I will never hand over Master's legacy to him." Fade and Caesar looked at Mr. Tu with some surprise, and their eyes were full of curiosity.

Henric was discouraged, but then he smiled and said, "Since Mr. Tu has said so, I have something to tell you. This is what my grandfather has asked me to tell you."

"What is it?" Mr. Tu's eyes turned cold, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Henric said with a smile, "My grandfather said that the old tomb on Southern Hill seems to be a little dilapidated. He's going to dig it out, and move it to a better place."

No one thought much of those words, but Mr. Tu's expression changed drastically. He immediately started to shout, "You wouldn't dare! If Lamont so much as touches Master's tomb, I will fight him to the bitter end, even if it means losing my life!"

Henric sneered, "Mr. Tu, how could you say that. My grandfather is just doing this out of kindness. He wants to rebuild the ancestral tomb. This is a good thing!" "I will not allow Lamont to mess with Master's tomb!" Mr. Tu roared.

Henric then said, "The land on the mountain has been bought by our Cao family. As soon as my grandfather gives the order, we can start working at anytime."

"You-" Mr. Tu was furious.

Henric's eyes narrowed slightly and he said with a smile, "However, my grandfather said that if Mr. Tu were to return Master's item, he would be willing to offer it as a sacrifice in front of Master's tomb." "Don't even think about it!" Mr. Tu shouted angrily.

Henric showed a look of regret. He took out his mobile phone and made it look like he was about to make a phone call, "Since Mr. Tu won't agree, then I can only inform my grandfather with regret." Mr. Tu was boiling with anger, but at that moment, he was helpless.

Caesar quickly turned to Mr. Tu and asked with concern, "Grandpa, what is going on?"

Mr. Tu let out a long sigh and then slowly began to tell the story, "When I was just in my teenage years, I traveled south to learn some skills..."

After listening to Mr. Tu's story, Fade and Caesar roughly understood the situation.

Many years ago, Mr. Tu had become the disciple of a local Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor in the southern region. The old Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor had a few disciples, and one of them was Lamont, the current head of the Cao family.

Lamont was the last disciple of the old doctor, and he had some talent. In addition, he had a way with words, so he was a very likable person. Back then, he had a good relationship with Jason Tu as well.

After several years of learning, Lamont made rapid progress in his medical skills, especially in acupuncture. At that time, even his master could not help but praise him.

Lamont was constantly being flattered, and he was attracted by the lively happenings of the outside world, so he did not want to stay in such a remote mountainous area anymore.

So, Lamont cooperated with some local businessmen to set up a clinic at the foot of the mountain to provide medicine and treat the nearby villagers.

It would have been fine for him to do so, but Lamont was greedy. He secretly made a deal with the businessmen. He used all kinds of ineffective medicinal materials as if they were the real thing, and exaggerated the patients' illnesses, so that they would continue to look for him, and he would earn more money as a result.

When such a thing was finally discovered by his master, the old doctor flew into a rage. He reprimanded Lamont severely, telling him to close the clinic, withdraw the money, and then to meditate in the mountain for a year.

In fact, the old man had already been quite generous. He did not drive Lamont away because of Lamont's talents.

However, at that time, Lamont was at the peak of his career. He was earning good money and enjoying his life. He was highly sought after. Naturally, he would not be willing to give up everything he had. Thus, Lamont ultimately severed ties with his master and left the sect. He went down the mountain and continued on his own.

Without the restrictions of his master, Lamont used all kinds of unscrupulous means to make money.

His master could not bear to stand by and watch any longer. He brought his group of disciples down from the mountains to treat the villagers. At the same time, he revealed Lamont's doings to the public, causing Lamont's reputation to be ruined.

Lamont was unwilling to submit and he wanted to fight back, but he found that his master's medical skills were better than his. Especially when Lamont did not know the mysterious acupuncture technique known as the "Bronze Needle Spike".

Under such circumstances, Lamont was naturally dissatisfied. He thought to himself that his Master had been keeping secrets, and had not imparted all of his skills to him.

Lamont secretly inquired about the matter. Finally, he discovered that his master possessed an ancient Bronze Acupuncture Manual that had been handed down from ancient times.

The manual was an acupuncture and medical book, compiled by the royal doctor Victor Wang under the orders of the Emperor during the Song Dynasty. Within it, there were records of the methods of acupuncture for all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. It was considered a treasure in the history of Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture.

Lamont naturally coveted it, and he wanted to get the Bronze Acupuncture Manual, but after several attempts, he still had not succeeded.

At that point, his master was already an old man. In the end, he passed away with regrets. Before he died, the master passed down the Bronze Acupuncture Manual to Jason and told him to use it well, and that it should never fall into the hands of someone like Lamont.

After Jason received the manual, Lamont continued to fight against him for a period of time. In the end, Lamont joined hands with the local rich merchants and focused on expanding his business instead, whereas Jason left South Bay City with the manual, and eventually settled down in Dragonville.

In the years that passed, he studied the Bronze Acupuncture Manual and diligently practiced acupuncture. In the end, he became a famous doctor and earned the title of "Three Needles Tu". Meanwhile, in South Bay City, Lamont continued to rely on his previous techniques. His business and reputation rapidly developed, and he also gained the title of "King of Acupuncture" in South Bay City. Lamont, who possessed both wealth and fame, was still unable to forget the "Bronze Needle Spike" and the Bronze Acupuncture Manual. As a result, he had looked for Jason several times, and he attempted to get the medical book through various means.

However, Jason had never let him get what he wanted. Since Jason had been doing well in Dragonville, Lamont had not dared not be too forceful. Things had been delayed time and time again, until now. Now, decades later, Lamont had become the true Acupuncture King in South Bay City, and the Cao family had grown into a huge family. The embarrassing things that happened when he first started had been gradually buried with the passage of time, as well as the suppression of the Cao family. Few people ever mentioned it again.

Now that he was an old man, his time was limited. He wanted to get the Bronze Acupuncture Manual before his life came to an end, so that he could consolidate the title of the Cao family's Acupuncture King.
