The Healing Avenger novel Chapter 30

After Finnegan completed the forty-five changes of Fateful Eighteen Needles, Howard's aging signs disappeared, and his initially pale cheeks grew rosy.

His sunken skin seemed to have lifted and was no longer dull.

According to the heart rate monitor, his heart rate and breathing frequency had also increased. He wasn't completely healthy yet, but his condition had experienced a dramatic improvement of fifty percent.

Finnegan flicked his fingers, and the eighteen gold needles buzzed loudly.

After that, Howard's vitals returned to normal.

Howard had been cooped up in his bed for three long months, and he let out an enthusiastic shout upon his recovery.

The members of the Langdon family were barely able to contain their enthusiasm, but they restrained themselves from expressing it to prevent disturbing Finnegan.

Half an hour later, Finnegan retracted all the gold needles with his palm. “Get up.”

“Can I get up now?” Howard was in disbelief despite feeling the energy coursing in his body.

It felt like he was ten years younger.

Finnegan accepted a towel and wiped his hands. “You'll find out once you try getting up.”

Under everyone's eager gazes, Howard got up from bed without anyone's help. Abraham's eyes reddened and got emotional as Howard could finally get up without needing anyone's help.

Taking a deep breath, Howard then tried to get to his feet.

Despite trembling slightly, he managed to stand up successfully.

Abraham hollered, “Dad, you can finally stand up yourself!”

Howard was overjoyed and could hardly contain his excitement, yet he still made sure to express his gratitude to Finnegan. “Thank you so much, Dr. Larkin!'

The Langdon family also bowed in gratitude. “Thank you, Dr. Larkin!”

“I've been paid to treat him, so you don't have to thank me,” Finnegan replied with a dismissive wave.

Howard straightened his back and asked, “Dr. Larkin, have I recovered completely?”

“It isn't that easy,” Finnegan told him. “You're like an old car that has just been refueled. You can still move, but due to your advanced age, you will require servicing in order to be able to function as normal once more. I'll treat you another three times using acupuncture, and you'll also have to take traditional medicine for half a month before you can return to your optimal condition.”

“Ah, got it. Thank you, Dr. Larkin. Mandy, bring him to a room to get some rest.”

“No need. I promise to visit Theoden tonight. I'll be back tomorrow.”

Howard was surprised to learn that Finnegan knew Theoden. However, he didn't express his thoughts and instructed Mandy, “Give Dr. Larkin a ride to his destination. You are tasked to bring Dr. Larkin around for the next few days!”

The Langdon family, including Howard, saw Finnegan to the door before returning to the living room.

Abraham remarked, “I can't believe the legendary Mischievous Doctor is this young and capable. In fact, he even knows Old Mr. Wahlstrom. His abilities and connections are rather scary!”

Howard agreed, “Yes. If my friend hadn't told me about him, our family wouldn't have learned about his existence. We need to keep his identity a secret and also find a way to get closer to him!”

An energetic-looking elderly man with jet-black hair walked out and announced, “I agree with you!”

Abraham and Benedict immediately greeted, “Mr. Stone!”
