    It was a long time after the old man''s voice faded before anyone inside responded.


    "Just hold on for a moment. I''ll go in and check," The old man stepped up the stairs. Just then, the door of the wooden house was gently pushed open from the inside.


    An elderly woman in a blue outfit with white polka dots emerged, her hairpletely white and meticulously rolled back. Her clothing was simple and unassuming. Despite the deep wrinkles on her face, it was obvious she had been quite a beauty in her youth. "Where are you folksing from?" The old woman''s voice was strong with the heaviness of experience.


    The old man, like a trantor, looked at Ophelia and the others. Tanya asked where you''re from."


    "Hello, Tanya. We''re from Denex, and we''ve heard that your poison bugs can cure unusual illnesses, so we came here just for treatment," Ophelia spoke honestly. Denex was pretty far away, which should prove their sincerity.


    Upon hearing the word ''Denex'', a hint of disdain crossed Tanya''s previously nk face. She looked at them with indifference and coldly said, "Please show yourselves out," After saying that, she turned and went back inside. Ophelia was taken aback and exchanged a nce with Keh beside her. They didn''t know what was wrong with theming from Denex. "Tanya, wait," Ophelia took a few steps forward.


    Tanya halted but showed no sign of turning around. "There''s no need to ask, just leave. I won''t treat anyone from Denex."


    "Why? Is there some misunderstanding you have about the people from Denex?"


    Tanya remained silent and entered the cabin without looking back. A faint herbal scent drifted from the cabin, but it was peculiar that the small ck bottles they had seen along the way were not in sight here. Ophelia, determined not to give up, climbed a few steps only to be stopped by the old man.


    "I''m truly sorry. I forgot to mention earlier. Tanya has a rule she never treats people from Denex. Even if your family is ruined by drugs, she won''t intervene, so it''s best if you leave."


    Ophelia was puzzled, "Then what about the other vigers? I heard many vigers here raise poison bugs," In essence, she wanted to ask others for help.


    "You might not know this, but although every household raises these poison bugs, only Tanya knows how to heal using them. She chooses who gets treated, while others just raise the bugs."


    Whoever''s bugs were chosen for treatment would earn the money from selling them. Everyone in the vige relied on Tanya''s healing skills to make money, so naturally, it was up to her who she decided to treat. "Sorry, please leave now."


    Ophelia was still reluctant to give up. She didn''t know why Tanya wouldn''t treat people from Denex. She anxiously furrowed her brows, feeling like half her hope was shattered. She persistently wanted to ask more questions, but Keh gently held her hand. "If that''s the case, don''t push it. Let''s go."


    "No, I can''t just give up like this," She couldn''t let go of finding a method to heal Keh. Ophelia broke free from his hand and marched into the house, even the old man at the door couldn''t stop her.


    The interior was very simple, with a room where two people were lying, one man and one woman.


    The man had his eyes closed and was so thin that he was all skin and bones. His face was dark, and his exposed skin was deathly pale. His arms were bruised with blue and purple marks, clearly indicating drug use. 09:54 Mon, Dec 9


    Chapter 304-


    The woman had a waxyplexion, but it was unknown what less she had. The twoy there quietly as Tanya opened a porcin bottle and ced a small, crystal-clear blue and white insect into the man''s ear.


    The little flying bug looked a bit like a bee but was much smaller with transparent blue wings, not even half the size of a fingernail. Tanya ced three of them into the man''s ear one after the other.


    A few minutester, the little bug flew out of the man''s other ear. The bug, originally crystal clear, turned ck in an instant.


    Ophelia took a sharp breath. Even though she had read about it before, seeing it with her own eyes was shocking. She was surprised that there was really such a miraculous thing.


    After dealing with the bugs, Tanya suddenly pulled the curtain aside, stood up, and looked at Ophelia with hostility. "Are people from Denex always this rude? You just can''t be driven away!" Her voice suddenly turned cold. She seemed to have much animosity towards Denex.


    "I''m sorry, Tanya. I didn''t mean to offend you. I apologize," Ophelia bowed to her, her tone full of pleading. "I just want to know, how can you-"


    "I don''t treat people from Denex," Tanya emphasized thest word, her gaze firm and indifferent.


    Ophelia''s pride was as strong as anyone''s. "I beg you. You can name any condition."


    Keh/stepped into the wooden cabin, and those were the words he overheard. Ophelia, being his girl, didn''t need to beg anyone for anything.


    "Name your terms," The man stood in the doorway, overshadowing half the light.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    Tanya snorted, without even lifting her head, her back as straight as a ruler. "I''m afraid you can''t do it."


    Ronin followed closely behind Keh as they entered the room together. His tall build blocked out half of the light. Hearing Tanya''s words, he raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking Tanya probably didn''t know who was standing right in front of her. Just because others couldn''t do it didn''t mean Keh couldn''t.


    "What is it?" Ophelia saw there was room for negotiation, and hope sparked in her eyes.


    "I want everyone in Denex to die! Can you do that?" Tanya smirked, looking at the three of them at her own pace.


    Ophelia couldn''t believe what Tanya had said. Tanya wasn''t setting conditions at all. She was deliberately messing with them. They couldn''t possibly make everyone in Denex die. The hope in her eyes slowly faded.


    Keh''s eyes narrowed slightly beneath his sses as he scrutinized Tanya. He looked away and pulled Ophelia, heading out. There was nothing more to talk about.


    Anyone who could say such things must have a deep hatred for Denex. Whatever the reason, it was irrelevant to them and not something they could easily solve.


    Ronin paused. "Hey, I''m not from Denex!" That was when he remembered.


    "Are you sick?" Tanya asked.


    Ronin was speechless. "Can I at least buy a few bugs to study?"


    "We don''t sell poison bugs, and they die once they leave anyway! The old man at the door exined.


    Tanya ignored them and went back inside with another ck porcin bottle.


    Ophelia was led out of the courtyard by Keh. She couldn''t believe they were actually leaving,


    Keh stopped, looking at Ophelia. "I told you, there''s another way," He brushed her cheek, his brows furrowed under the brim of his hat. "Listen up, you''re with me, and I won''t let you lower yourself to beg anyone, got it?"
