Chapter 578: Removing Blood Stasis
When Deng Mo heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.
He had known about Physician Pang’s death for a long time, and Emperor Ming’s actions were probably precautionary.
Besides, in terms of medical skills alone, Qin Feng’s abilities might surpass those of all the imperial physicians.
After all, Qin Feng was the first Physician in history to be able to treat meridian injuries. Moreover, when the strange disease plagued the Imperial City in the past, it was this young man who turned the tide and saved the people from disaster.
Deng Mo sighed deeply and said, “In that case, come with me.”
Qin Feng followed Deng Mo to the top floor of the attic. As they sat down, Qin Feng began to use his Dual Pupil ability to observe Deng Mo’s physical condition.
At first glance, it looked fine, but upon closer inspection, it was truly shocking.
Chief Deng’s internal organs were all damaged, not to mention his bones and muscles were already rotting.
For an ordinary person, such injuries would have been fatal long ago. The only reason he was still alive was because of his formidable strength, which used Yin Qi to circulate through his body, driving his blood and organ functions!
‘Even so, Chief Deng should not be able to move like an ordinary person. After all, his body simply cannot support it... Wait, what is this?’
Qin Feng’s eyes widened. Next, he clearly saw that Master Deng’s physical body was also covered with Yin Qi.
He instantly understood that Chief Deng was now like a puppet controlled by strings, relying not on flesh and blood to support his movements, but on Yin Qi!
For Chief Deng, this situation could be described as worse than death. And yet, for the sake of maintaining peace in the Eastern Domain, he has endured it for decades!
At this thought, Qin Feng was deeply moved.
Deng Mo, seeing his grim expression, smiled and said, “You need not worry. I’m more aware of my own physical condition than anyone else. Being able to live these extra years is already a bonus, there’s nothing to regret. Just do your best.”
Qin Feng took a deep breath and replied truthfully, “Chief Deng, there is accumulated congestion pressing on your internal organs, damage to your bones, and tissue necrosis. It is not easy to completely remove these ailments, and it will take a long time”.
Upon hearing this, Deng Mo was momentarily stunned. “Are you saying that there’s still a chance for me to fully recover from my injuries?”
Since his arrival in the Imperial City, countless Imperial Physicians had diagnosed him, but without exception, each of them had declared that they were unable to help, only to keep him alive for a little while longer. Never before had anyone dared to utter words like Qin Feng’s.
Qin Feng nodded, “It’s difficult, but it’s worth a try. But I don’t want to deceive you, Chief Deng. The success rate of the treatment is at most thirty to forty percent.”
Deng Mo’s expression changed slightly at this news. Seeing a glimmer of hope where there had been none before, how could he not be moved?
After treating him, Qin Feng prescribed some medicine and gave some instructions. Then, his expression turned serious as he brought up last night’s attack.
Deng Mo frowned at his words, “Five high-level Divine Martial Warriors. Have you been injured?”
Qin Feng straightened his chest and stood tall, “Mere rats, not worth mentioning. They were no match for me at all!”
“Originally, I wanted to keep one of them alive to find out who was behind it, but they were all fanatics who eventually chose to poison themselves.”
“But I found a clue: the poison used by the assassin.”
“It was a long-lost, extremely rare type of poison – bone dissolving powder!”
“And this poison also reminded me of a very sinister sect – the Deceptive Poison Sect, which disappeared over a decade ago.”
Deng Mo’s expression changed slightly. “How certain are you about this speculation?”
“Eight or nine out of ten,” Qin Feng replied truthfully.
After the confrontation with the white-robed youth of the Deceptive Poison Sect in Jinyang City, he had deliberately paid attention to the information about the Deceptive Poison Sect while reading the books in the Listen to Rain Pavilion.
This sect was mentioned in the books whenever the topic of Bone Dissolving Powder appeared.
Deng Mo nodded slightly, then lowered his head in thought. With his status, he naturally knew far more information than the average person.
The Southern Domain’s Prince Luo had once eradicated this sect with full force, yet there were still remnants?
“Why did they try to kill you?” Deng Mo asked curiously.
Qin Feng shook his head. “I don’t know either. When I was in Jinyang City, I had dealings with them. All I knew was that these people were ruthless.”
“They wouldn’t even spare ordinary civilians to achieve their goals.”
“Oh, by the way, yesterday in the palace, I felt a murderous aura when I passed a group of Imperial Physicians.”
“I suspect that these people have already infiltrated the palace, perhaps even disguised as imperial Physicians. After all, the Deceptive Poison Sect is known for their mastery of disguise as well as their extraordinary skill in poison techniques.”
Just as the two of them were pondering over their conversation, an official from the Demon Slaying Department came to report: “Chief, Eunuch Li requests an audience.”
