Chapter 283

In a clean and tidy room in Craftsman Valley in West Blue, a man with an iron. sheet on his face was lying quietly on the bed in the middle.

At this moment, he should have fallen into a deep sleep.

He was naked and covered in silver needles.

After Gavin brought Howard back, he examined Howard.

He realized that his uncle was in very bad health.

He was doing worse than Kris previously.

Although Howard didn't break down like Kris did, his physical condition was terrible.

If it were any other ordinary person, even if it were a slightly lower-level warrior, they would have died long ago.

The reason why Howard survived was probably because of a belief in his heart.

This belief was probably the same as Kris's, which was Gavin.

What Gavin had to do was not only help his second uncle recover but also get Howard's face back.

That was why he had asked Harry and the others to skin that man.

However, the iron sheet on Howard's face was really too old.

It had already completely merged with the flesh below.

Even his eyes, nose, and mouth were all attached to the iron sheet.

Howard would definitely die if the iron sheet on his face was removed directly.

Therefore, Gavin did not do it immediately.

He asked Harry and the others to find a way to preserve Howard's face.

This did not mean that there was no other way.

There was a way.

He needed a medicinal herb to keep Howard alive and help him complete his

treatment.

However, that medicinal herb was even more precious and rare than the coptis herb required to heal Kris. Therefore, Gavin planned to stabilize Howard's bodily functions first before making any plans.

On the other side, Gavin had been guarding Howard's bed and looking at the iron sheet on Howard's face.

Tears kept welling up in his eyes.

His heart really ached for Howard.

Her heart ached for his uncle. Howard had suffered so much, but he had been misunderstood by others and Gavin.

Gavin now knew that Howard did not betray the Clifford family.

Howard was still the same person from back then who loved and protected him.

At this moment, Harry appeared behind Gavin.

He said in a low voice, "Dark Lord, they're here."

When Gavin heard this, he wiped the tears off his face and nodded slightly.

"Let them in."

Soon, the Conor family's people arrived.

They all looked at the man whose face was covered by an iron sheet on the bed. with sorrowful eyes.

They clenched their fists tightly when their bodies trembled violently.

The women from the Conor family could not hold it in anymore. Kris and the others covered their mouths as tears kept streaming down their faces uncontrollably.

The eyes of Gavin's grandfather and his eldest uncle were red and their bodies. were trembling. They were filled with grief.

In the beginning, they also received the news that Howard was the ruler of Thorns.

Previously, the Conor family's Patriarch, Winston, had also told Gavin angrily that back then, when they found out that the Clifford family in Brookspring had been besieged, all the Conor family people had packed their things and left Brookspring as per Gavin's father's request.

Only Howard failed to control his emotions and insisted on bringing his men to rescue the Clifford family.

As he did that, he had never returned.

Later, everyone heard that Howard was the ruler of Thorns and had betrayed the Clifford family.

Winston even shouted angrily that Howard was no longer his son.

But just now, Gavin had told them the truth.

Only then did Winston realize that he had misunderstood his son.

Now, looking at his son's current state, Winston felt that his eart was filled with endless pain.

When Tyler heard this news, he also cried.

He could not help but shed tears. He even gave a thumbs up and praised, "Howard Conor is such a great hero!"

On the other side, Kris, who was crying pitifully, came to Gavin while trembling.

She raised one hand to hold Gavin's hand and said with a sobbing tone, "Gav... is there any way to heal Howard's face?"

Hearing Kris's question, Gavin nodded heavily. "There's a way!"

Upon hearing Gavin's confident voice, the members of the Conor family were all excited.

However, Gavin's following words made these people dejected again.

"But it will be very difficult. That medicinal ingredient... At least until now, I've never seen it with my own eyes!”

"Then what should we do?" Kris could no longer control her crying.

"Howard can't stay this way for the, the rest of..."

At this point, Kris could not say a complete sentence.

Gavin gently patted Kris's hand and said, "Uncle Howard became like this because. of me, so leave it to me."

Gavin then turned to Harry and said, "Tell Yana and Yara to come see me."

"Yes, Dark Lord!" Harry's figure disappeared on the spot.

Not long after, the two sisters appeared in the room.

When they saw Howard's face, they could not bear to see him like this.

They knelt on the ground in unison.

"Greetings, Young Master."

Gavin nodded and said, "I need you to send out all your men to find a medicinal herb for me. I need the Thousand-year-old Ice-sealing Jade Silkworm!"

The Thousand-year-old Ice-sealing Jade Silkworm was very precious.

The jade silkworm was a thousand years old and needed to be sealed by ice.

Such a thing sounded absolutely impossible.

The only place with thousand-year-old unmelted ice could only be the extreme north in Frostpeak.

However, could there be a piece of jade in such a place?

Gavin needed the jade silkworms in the jade.

Jade silkworms were bugs that burrowed into the jade during the transformation process. This kind of bug merely got into the jade to hibernate or transform into a butterfly. It did not expect to be sealed by the jade.

It was almost impossible to get such a precious herb, which required jade

silkworms.

At the very least, the people from the Conor family and the locals in Craftsman Valley had never heard of this item.

"Yes, Young Master!"

However, after hearing Gavin's order, only Yana answered Gavin.

As for Yana's sister, Yara, she was slightly stunned.

The next second, Yara directly said, "Young Master, did you just say the Thousand-year-old Ice-sealing Jade Silkworm?"

Hearing Yara's words, everyone looked at her.

Gavin's words were very clear. If she didn't know about that thing, she wouldn't ask again. However, she did repeat the question, which meant that she knew something about it.

Gavin immediately said, "Do you know it?"

Under everyone's expectant gazes, Yara nodded at Gavin and said, "Young Master, you know that the Frostpeak Skynet have always occupied Frostpeak. The headquarters is in the extreme north!

"I don't know much about Riverrun, but I know everything about Frostpeak and Frostpeak Skynet!

"Young Master, I remember seeing this medicinal herb you just mentioned in an investigation report.

"And this investigation report is about the Frostpeak General!"

"Huh?" Gavin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Are you talking about Jacket Yeats, the Frostpeak General?"
