He is also a licensed advanced herbalist certified by both the Hunter Union and the magic Association, he self produces a lot of drugs that heals non-life threatening injuries.

At some point he got gravely injured by Spectre (A man from the Hall of Assassins, the same organization as the people who tried to kill Zhao Manyan) and encased in a ice coffin, and was taken away by a Japanese woman who works as a researcher with Undead element.
