"Who is it this time, Father?"
A young woman had entered the chamber, her expression filled with suspicion and frustration.
Her gaze immediately locked onto Lin Feng and the others.
"Another charlatan coming here to lie and cheat us again?" She said coldly, her gaze sharp and unwelcoming.
"What promises did this man make to you this time?" The young woman's voice was laced with undisguised anger, as if he had long since grown tired of false hope and empty words.
Over the years, she had watched her father spare no effort for her sister… inviting renowned physicians, elusive alchemists, wandering cultivators, and even those who claimed to be miracle workers.
Each one arrived with confidence, speaking grandly of cures and secret techniques, only to leave in failure.
Yet her sister remained the same, lying motionless as if the world had forgotten her, trapped within that cruel sleeping curse.
What made it worse was not just the disappointment, but the cost.
