The only response was the deep, steady sound of breathing.
Watching Wang Jinhe fall asleep without doing anything, Su Yu couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.
He helped Wang Jinhe undress, covered her with a blanket, and let her rest. At the same time, he went outside to have Qiuyi and the others prepare some food, to prevent Wang Jinhe from waking up hungry.
After giving instructions, Su Yu went straight to the study to handle the affairs of Forget Sorrow City.
“Master Qiming has arrived in Xuan Empire, and his men have already found the location of the divine healer. They will go directly to find the healer.”
“I see. How are the people from Forget Sorrow City doing now? Are they enjoying themselves at the Prince Qi’s mansion?” Su Yu asked, looking at Yuan Bao with a smile on his face.
Yuan Bao cleared his throat and said to Su Yu, “Master, it was absolutely right to send the people from Forget Sorrow City to cause trouble for Master Qiming. Before Master Qiming arrived, they started causing chaos in the prince’s mansion after he was poisoned. Master Qiming couldn’t catch them, and they nearly made him spit blood several times.”
Those people are just troublemakers who are afraid that the world won’t be chaotic enough. It would be strange if they didn’t cause enough trouble when the master asked them to cause trouble for Prince Qi.
“Excellent.” Su Yu was delighted to hear that Master Qiming had a hard time before.
Seeing Su Yu’s happy expression, Yuan Bao spoke up, “Master, we also found out that after Master Qiming arrived in Xuan Empire, he sent people to find your whereabouts. Shouldn’t we prepare in advance?”
Master Qiming is a madman. If they don’t prepare in advance, he’s worried that they will be caught off guard later.
“No need to prepare anything. Master Qiming will definitely come, but not now.” Right now, Master Qiming’s priority is to detoxify. With such great ambitions, if he can’t secure his position due to poisoning, he will go mad.
Just as Master Qiming understands him, he also understands Master Qiming.
What Master Qiming wants most is the throne of Qi Empire, and the emperor of Qi Empire won’t let a severely poisoned person inherit the throne. So, what he needs to do now is to detoxify himself. Only after detoxification will he come to find him.
Yuan Bao felt relieved as soon as he heard that. “Master, I feel reassured now.”
“You go about your business. I know how to handle things with Qiming. You don’t need to worry too much,” Su Yu said, instructing Yuan Bao to get to work.
After Yuan Bao left, Su Yu pondered the matter concerning Qiming.
Perhaps Qiming will come earlier, just as Yuan Bao said.
But that’s not important now.
Su Yu is no longer so concerned about these matters.
“Master, my master has written me a letter.” Not long after Yuan Bao left, Wan Gu arrived.
This time, Wan Gu insisted on coming with him. Su Yu had no choice but to let him follow.
Su Yu looked at Wan Gu and asked, “What did your master say to you?”
Wan Gu sneered, “It’s about the poisoning of Prince Qi. He asked if it was me who did it.”
“It seems that Qiming has already found the divine healer.” Otherwise, the divine healer wouldn’t ask such a question.
He just didn’t expect that it wasn’t as Yuan Bao had said, that Qiming had just arrived here, but had already gone to the divine healer. It was truly a pleasant surprise for him.
“I need to write to my master now. I can’t let him detoxify Qiming,” Wan Gu said anxiously.
Su Yu sighed and looked at Wangu helplessly. “Wan Gu, have you forgotten that your master is a divine healer? He won’t detoxify him at all.”
Although Wan Gu’s master is a divine healer, he only treats and saves people. When it comes to poison, he can detoxify, but he doesn’t understand the specifics of Qiming’s poisoning, especially the kind of poisoning Wan Gu caused.
“Although my master knows nothing about poisons, he can detoxify. I’m worried that he will detoxify Qiming. I still need to write back to him,” Wan Gu said. Not only his master, but also other senior brothers and sisters are there. If any of them can detoxify Qiming, he would be at a loss.
“Alright, go ahead,” Su Yu said, unable to stop Wan Gu and reluctantly agreeing with him.
After Wan Gu wrote back to the divine healer, he felt completely at ease.
“The Valley Master, it’s a letter from Young Master Xing Qian.” A few days later, the divine healer received Wan Gu’s letter, while Qiming sat across from him.
Even though he was poisoned, Qiming’s momentum hadn’t weakened much.
The divine healer took the letter from the person below and frowned after reading it.
The divine healer put away the letter and spoke to Qiming, “We can’t neutralize your poison.”
“Why?” If even the divine healer couldn’t detoxify him, what could he do next?
“The poison you’ve been afflicted with is a complex mixture. Each type of poison is perfectly balanced in your body,” the divine healer said, frowning.
He hadn’t expected that the brat’s poison had become even more sophisticated. This time, he couldn’t figure out what was going on with this poison.
Maintaining a balance of poisons in Qiming’s body would also make him suffer unbearably.
He really didn’t know how Qiming had provoked the brat to use such a complex poison.
“Do you know anyone who can detoxify me?” Qiming asked the divine healer earnestly.
“There is one person, but he may not be willing to help you detoxify.” How could he help you when it was the brat who administered the poison?
Qiming was somewhat surprised, but he chose to ignore the latter part of the divine healer’s statement.
“Please tell me who can detoxify me,” Qiming asked eagerly.
“It’s my disciple, Xing Qian. However, he has been missing for many years, and I don’t know where he has gone wild,” the divine healer replied.
Qiming frowned. Was the divine healer playing games with him?
“Since your disciple can detoxify, you should be able to help me as well. Why do I have to find your disciple?” Qiming asked the divine healer, expressing his doubts.
Or rather, he simply didn’t believe the divine healer’s words.
“I don’t know much about complex poisons, especially the one in your body. The person who created this poison is undoubtedly a master of poisons, and a genius at that,” the divine healer said, frowning, showing no concern for Qiming’s suspicion.
“Why can your disciple detoxify it then?”
“He enjoys creating antidotes for various poisons. Over time, he can basically neutralize all poisons. However, finding him won’t be easy,” the divine healer said frankly and calmly.
“Please help me find your disciple,” Qiming said, looking at the divine healer with a stern expression.
The divine healer frowned at Qiming’s impolite manner and felt extremely displeased with him.
“I can’t find him.”
“You are his master, how can you not find him? I don’t care what methods you use, you must bring him back, and he must agree to help me detoxify,” Qiming said to the divine healer in a deep voice.
The divine healer sneered at his words. “Leave. The person you’re looking for is not here.”
