681 The Lord of Amethyst Underworld Palace 2

Crash!

Just then, the door burst open and a disciple of the Amethyst Underworld Palace rushed in. He joined his fists and exclaimed, "Elder Jiu, something has happened to the Lord of the Palace!"

"What?"

Elder Jiu did not even have the time to recompose his elated expression and was immediately shaken by the news. He immediately rose from his bed and grabbed the disciple by his lapels, "What did you say?"

Elder Jiu, the Lord of the Palace had been poisoned by the Swamplands. He's now in a coma. Many doctors have already examined him and they have concluded that it's no use! Now, Elder Da has gone to the Medicine Order and asked the Order Master for help."

Gasp!

Elder Jiu released his grip and fell silent. After a long pause, he turned to face Gu Ruoyun and bowed deeply, "Lady Gu, please help us save the Lord of the Palace."

This is the first time he's ever had to beg anyone!

Even when his wounds were incurable, he had never lowered his head to beg anyone for treatment.

But now, for the sake of the Amethyst Underworld Palace's Lord, he lowered his head and shirked off his pride as a Martial Honor. 

Gu Ruoyun gently rubbed her chin, a faint smile appeared on her elegant features.

"The Order Master of the Medicine Order?"

Isn't the Order Master Wei Yiyi's Junior Sister? She was also the one who had murdered her Master and had framed Wei Yiyi for that?

Gu Ruoyun paused at the thought and said, "However, we each have our own expertise. My expertise does not lie in curing poisons."

Hearing this, Elder Jiu's face filled with disappointment. Just as he was about to give up, the woman's calm voice spoke again.

"If you want to save him, it's not entirely impossible," Gu Ruoyun smiled gently, "I know someone who can save him."

"Who?"

Elder Jiu's eyes shone as he asked quickly.

"The Ghost Doctor, Wei Yiyi!"

If the Order Master of the Medicine Order was coming here, then this would be the perfect opportunity for Wei Yiyi.

Also, it's not like she wasn't well versed in treating poison. She was even able to cure the poison in Ye Lan's system which was far more difficult than the poison from the Swamplands. How could she possibly not know how to get rid of one measly Swampland poison? This opportunity should be given to Wei Yiyi.

"Then I'll go pay the Ghost Doctor a visit immediately."

Elder Jiu placed his full trust in Gu Ruoyun's words. As long as she says that the Ghost Doctor can cure the Lord, then she can definitely achieve this! Hence, his darkened gaze returned to its usual luster.

Before Elder Jiu left, Gu Ruoyun turned around and said, "By the way, when you send your men to meet her, tell her that I have asked her to come and please mention that the Order Master of the Medicine Order will be present as well!"

In the past, Elder Jiu might not have known Wei Yiyi's true identity. However, during the Divine Trials, the members of the Medicine Order have exposed her identity. Hence, this was also Wei Yiyi's time to collect her debt!

"Wei Yiyi, I once promised you that I would help you get your revenge as a reward for helping me! Due to the situation during the Divine Trials, I could not allow the members of the Medicine Order to find out about your existence for the time being so I had not allowed you to return to the Medicine Order. Now, we no longer have the need to cower in fear. I have enough power to protect everyone around me. It's about time for you to return to the Medicine Order and take what's rightfully yours!"

A peculiar light flashed in Gu Ruoyun's eyes. She fixed her gaze upon the blue skies outside the door, lost in thought...

Three days!

Those three days passed by in a flash.

However, everyone in the Amethyst Underworld Palace remained deeply troubled, afraid that their Lord would not be able to hold on before the Order Master of the Medicine Order arrives. As for Gu Ruoyun, she had remained in her room over the past three days and did not even take a single step outside.
