Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Duan Gujin swept a glance at the Monarch seated upon the dragon throne and suddenly noticed the Monarch's complexion was exceptionally pale. The next moment, the Monarch actually spat out several mouthfuls of black blood.

This sudden change in the Monarch immediately caused panic among the people below, with many rushing to the Monarch's side to take his pulse and see what was the matter.

"Father Emperor!"

At this moment, Princess Meng Yun rushed forward, checking the Monarch's condition.

Duan Gujin immediately noticed Duoling by his side rushing over as well, but he didn't move forward. He knew that even if he did go forward it would be of no use; moreover, he was not a member of the Imperial Family nor a court official, so he had no right to step forward.

After a while, Duoling quickly asked, "Sirs, does anyone have a good Detoxification Spirit Pill?"

Hearing this, Duan Gujin's eyes flashed as he asked, "Duoling, what's going on?"

Duoling quickly explained, "The Monarch has been poisoned! I cannot discern what poison it is, so I have to seek other physicians. Right now, we urgently need some Detoxification Elixirs. Do you have any?"

"Let me have a look; I am an alchemist too!"

Duan Gujin said and immediately rushed forward to take the Monarch's pulse.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

The Monarch spewed out mouthfuls of black blood, and Duan Gujin determined that the Monarch was indeed poisoned.

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he said, "The Monarch really has been poisoned! The poison was deeply hidden inside his body and has been inadvertently triggered by overexertion. What the Monarch needs now is to rest properly. Duoling, Meng Yun, do you trust me? If you do, let me perform Bloodletting Needle Therapy on the Monarch!"

"Bloodletting Needle Therapy?" Upon hearing these four words, Duoling and Meng Yun gasped.

Both being alchemists, they had learned some medical skills, and they knew what the phrase 'Bloodletting Needle Therapy' implied.

If it were not the Monarch who needed bloodletting therapy at this moment, they would have agreed immediately.

But the one who needed bloodletting therapy now was the ruler of Country Gulai, and should the therapy not work well, Duan Gujin would face the executioner's axe!

"How confident are you?" Meng Yun hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Don't worry; you haven't seen my Bloodletting Needle Therapy, which is actually quite remarkable!"

Duan Gujin promptly responded.

"Alright then, I agree to let you perform Bloodletting Needle Therapy. Duoling, what about you?"

"I agree too!" Duoling immediately expressed his consent.

And so, Duan Gujin promptly performed Bloodletting Needle Therapy on the Monarch.

There were many present who opposed the notion, but they were silenced by Duoling and Meng Yun.

To avoid any doubts about his strength, Duan Gujin released his orange Martial Soul.

Below, when the Civil and Military Officials saw the orange Martial Soul released above Duan Gujin's head, their expressions turned solemn.

They knew that anyone who could enter the Imperial Palace was no ordinary person, and this young man with the orange Martial Soul was definitely one of the best among the younger generation.

All the Civil and Military Officials present looked towards Duoling, who asked them to keep calm.

In actuality, Duoling was also very nervous.

Although he had previously seen Duan Gujin refine Third-grade Elixirs and had confidence in Duan Gujin's alchemy, he had never witnessed Duan Gujin's medical skills.

In the event that Duan Gujin's Bloodletting Needle Therapy ended up killing the Monarch, he would have to place all the responsibility on Duan Gujin.

But Duoling knew, if something truly happened to the Monarch, he too would not escape death.

It's just that he had earlier tried hard to take the Monarch's pulse but could never identify exactly what was wrong with him.

Precisely because he couldn't identify what had happened to the Monarch, he was momentarily at a loss and didn't know what to do next.

"Blast it! I think the Monarch had already been poisoned before, and the poison was not meant to trigger all at once. But just in the last couple of days, the Monarch overdosed on the Ten Night Stand that I had refined and overexerted himself, precipitating the severe latent poison to flare up!"

Duan Gujin was so proactive because he knew from the pulse diagnosis earlier that the Monarch's sudden attack was related to the Ten Night Stand he had previously refined.

If the Monarch really perished, he feared that he would be forcefully accused of murdering the Monarch!

So, Duan Gujin immediately performed Bloodletting Needle Therapy on the Monarch to eliminate his own evidence.

After a while, the Monarch woke up from his faint.

He saw Duan Gujin administering needle therapy on him and nodded slightly.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling better now?" Duan Gujin quickly asked.

"Much better!"

The Monarch replied.

The crowd of civil and military officials below heard this and finally felt a bit relieved.

Duan Gujin said: "Your Majesty, the reason for your vomiting blood is because you have overworked yourself in the past. I believe you have been overexerting yourself in the last two days, which led to the vomiting of blood."

"Yes! Yes!"

The Monarch nodded quickly; he had recently obtained Elixir Pills refined by Duan Gujin, and had been spending several hours a day intimately with his concubines.

So, Duan Gujin's words immediately made him realize what was going on.

"Gentlemen, it's nothing, I've just been overworking myself!" the Monarch said.

"Your Majesty, please take care of your dragon health!"

The crowd of civil and military officials below said in unison.

"Alright! You all may leave, I just need a little rest!" the Monarch said.

The Monarch soon had the eunuchs beside him take him back to rest, but those civil and military officials were arranged to stay behind, and they had to eat, drink, and be merry for at least two hours before they could leave.

This action caused many of the civil and military officials present to focus their attention on Duan Gujin.

Their hearts were filled with shock; they found the young man standing next to Second-grade Alchemist Duoling and Princess Meng Yun too incredible.

Cao Wentian, seeing Duan Gujin cure the Monarch's ailment in an instant, was stunned.

"Could this young man have had a fling with Teacher Meng Yun before? It must be so, they previously hid in the Alchemy Room and made love during alchemy?"

The more he thought about it, the more Cao Wentian hated Duan Gujin, itching to kill Duan Gujin for snatching the goddess in his heart.

"Duan Gujin, you performed very well just now!"

Back at their original seats, Meng Yun immediately expressed her gratitude.

Duan Gujin was struck with a thought; he quickly inquired with Meng Yun: "Meng Yun, do you know about the deadly poison lurking inside your father's body?"

"What? I had no idea!"

Upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, Meng Yun quickly asked Duoling beside her.

After hesitating for a while, Duoling pulled both Duan Gujin and Meng Yun aside.

"Princess, your father truly has been poisoned with a deadly toxin. This kind of toxin is deeply concealed, and I have tried many methods, but I have never been able to help your father detoxify!"

Duoling explained.

"What?"

Hearing Duoling's words, Meng Yun exclaimed in shock.

"This is a secret! You absolutely cannot let this spread!"

Duoling quickly urged Meng Yun to calm down, not wanting her to alarm anyone else.
