Chapter 104 - Unforeseen in the Rage of the Sovereign's Heart
Hong Zhong tidied up her emotions and watched the two fight, only feeling pain in her eyes because of the light circles created by the internal force battle.
"Bang ~ ~ ~" With another explosion, Baili Mingyue and Xuan Ji both retreated a few steps, it was obvious that the two of them had sustained internal injuries. But after pausing for just a moment, Spiritual Master Xuan Ji once again used his Spirit Qi to attack Baili Mingyue.
The two continued to fight intensely, but they did not notice that the ball of light formed by the Master of Pure Wisdom's Spirit Qi, due to the explosion just now, had jumped left and right under the effect of the many halos that flashed past. In the end, it left and right jumped out of the Spirit Qi range of the two, slowly falling down!
Hong Zhong who had personally witnessed all of this saw the thing fall to the ground, and thought that since Baili Mingyue was able to snatch it, it should naturally be something that he cared about, so without thinking much, he pounced forward and caught the ball of light.
Unexpectedly, just as his hand came into contact with the wave of light, he felt a scorching pain on his hand. After that, a warm current began to spread from his arm to his entire body, and it gradually began to heat up. After that, he felt a surge of anger in his stomach, and his entire body felt as if it was on fire. The pain was extreme!
The sudden pain made Hong Zhong unable to endure it any longer, and caused beads of sweat to gradually seep out from her forehead and back. She could still grit her teeth in the beginning, but now her vision was blurry.
"Pfft …" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out from Hong Zhong's mouth. At this moment, she felt as if all the meridians and joints in her entire body had been broken.
Right at this moment, the two fighting against each other also discovered that the ball of light formed from pure energy had disappeared. Turning their heads, they saw Hong Zhong's abnormality, causing Baili Mingyue's face to turn serious, an extremely bad feeling rising in her heart, she used all her strength to push Spiritual Master Xuan Ji away, then descended with the wind, hugging the unconscious Hong Zhong: "Girl,"
However, it was only for a moment, and his eyes shone brightly.
It was her! So it was her!
Looking at the fainted Hong Zhong in Baili Mingyue's embrace, Spiritual Master Xuan Ji's eyes revealed a crafty and evil smile. Flinging her whisk, she said in a good mood, "Forget about it. I don't think the Regent will have time to fight with this sovereign today. Why don't we fight another day?"
If she previously had an inner force skill base, coupled with the fact that you helped her from the side, it would not be difficult for her to support it. But, if I am not wrong, she does not seem to have an inner force foundation.
Baili Mingyue's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that what Spiritual Master Xuan Ji said was the truth! That was an inner force cultivation of fifty years, for normal experts to be able to support it, they would need more inner force to help them avoid Qi deviation. He had never seen any signs of inner force on Hong Zhong, to suddenly receive such heavy inner force, it would only cause her blood to surge, and would not be able to withstand the pressure!
Without thinking much further, he carried Hong Zhong and flew down the mountain.
… ….
The mountain behind the secluded manor
Wu Hen, Wu Shang and the rest were guarding the entrance of the cave with serious expressions. Until Mo Chen arrived in time to catch his breath, when he saw the two of them, he could not help but scold them: "What is going on? I say, Wu Hen, you have been getting more and more inconvenient with your work these days. Master is always in trouble these few days, how did you become the chief guard? "
Wu Shang coughed lightly and looked at Wu Hen, "This time, it's not Master."
"Damn, it's not Master. Why did you call me here?" Mo Chen was panicking a little, it must be known that in order to concoct a pill to suppress the cold poison, he had already been sleepless for three days and three nights. It had taken a lot of effort to finish concocting it, and he had only been able to sleep for less than fifteen minutes when another person came to wake him up, "I say, can you not wake me up in the middle of the night like this, it will shorten my lifespan, do you know!"
"It's Hong Zhong!" With the word Wu Hen, Mo Chen shut his mouth. Alright, actually, Hong Zhong is one of master's heart, strictly speaking, he is as important as master. Ye Zichen rubbed his glabella speechlessly. Oh my god, he's really tired! " What happened to her? Oh right, what are you two doing here? "
Wu Hen sighed slightly, "Hong Zhong stumbled upon the opportunity and absorbed Uncle Jing Hui's fifty years of cultivation. Master is on his way to bring her here. From the looks of it, Mistress is preparing to help her recuperate. "
"Mistress, I'm not fully recovered yet. How can I help her?" Mo Chen immediately jumped up, if this master were to fall, wouldn't that still be his? Therefore, he definitely could not let his master treat Hong Zhong personally.
Wu Shang interrupted: "That's why I called you here to prepare for when we might need it."
Mo Chen looked speechlessly at the sky, and in the end, glared at Wu Hen and Wu Shang in disappointment, "You think you can't help Master at all by following him?! You don't even know how to advise Master!"
Originally, this was the location of a royal hot spring.
When the cold poison broke out, it needed the heat of a hot spring to disperse the cold. After the late emperor ascended the throne, he gave the hot spring to the Lord Regent and built a manor on it.
There was another wonder in this place. It was that a few meters away from the hot spring, there was a hole in the ice. A thousand-year-old ice pool naturally formed inside the hole. It was extremely cold. Although the ice cave and the hot spring pool were a few meters apart, they did not disturb each other.
The reason why Baili Mingyue brought Hong Zhong here was because she wanted to borrow the cold energy from the cold cave to temporarily suppress the internal energy that was uncontrollable in Hong Zhong's body. Just as Baili Mingyue arrived, Wu Hen and the others stepped forth, "Master, please allow this subordinate to come."
Baili Mingyue glanced at Wu Hen, then shook her head slightly, "You can't." It was not because he looked down on Wu Hen and the others, but because the Master of Pure Wisdom's fifty years of internal energy was something ordinary people could not suppress. In the entire Navy Tide, those who could suppress this internal energy were only two or three people, and Wu Hen and the rest's abilities were definitely not enough.
Although Wu Hen was unhappy in his heart, he had no choice but to admit this fact. He could not say anything more and could only watch as Baili Mingyue brought Hong Zhong into the cave.
After placing Hong Zhong in the cold ice pool, a burst of steam was immediately emitted from Hong Zhong's body. It lingered around her body and did not disperse for a long time.
"Hmm …" Hong Zhong let out a painful groan. Even though she was unconscious, because of the torment of the inner force in her body, she felt her entire body turn cold. Her brows knitted as beads of sweat seeped out of her forehead.
Also because she was soaked in ice, she felt like she was in a blazing inferno, her entire body was about to burn, but at the same time, because of the thousand-year old ice around her, it was ice-cold to the bone. The torment of ice and fire caused her to be unable to stop herself from muttering, "It's cold, it's so cold!"
The moment every month, when the cold poison returned, Baili Mingyue would have to endure this kind of pain. He also knew that it was not a good time to delay this further, so without saying anything further, he submerged himself into the cold ice pool and helped Hong Zhong up before sitting behind her back. He focused all of his attention on guiding the purest of his power out of his body and into Hong Zhong's body.
Upon seeing this, Mo Chen and Wu Hen, who had just entered, immediately understood what Baili Mingyue was doing. The Regent King was doing this because he wanted to borrow the cold energy from the ice pond to suppress the inner force for the Red Third Miss.
However, Master was already poisoned by the cold poison, so he couldn't bear the cold!
Furthermore, pure power is every practitioner's most precious energy, and the cold poison in the Regent's body is only able to suppress the cold poison in his body once a month due to his pure power being combined with medicine.
This time, if he were to export the pure power, I'm afraid that the cold poison of the prince will recur in advance! Although this was the result of his budget, Mo Chen was not so conflicted in his heart. After all, the Duke Cold Poison could still be used to delay the pain from recurrence of the cold poison, and that medicine, after three days and three nights of hard work, had already been refined!
The originally tormenting Hong Zhong was now like a ferocious beast, rampaging within Hong Zhong's body, wishing that her blood vessels could completely burst apart. However, after Baili Mingyue injected this surge of pure energy, she felt that wherever the warm current passed, the blood vessels would be much smoother, and the internal energy that was rampaging about would also gradually become entangled by the warm current, slowly circulating along her meridians, before finally being covered...
Because of the sudden increase in pure power, Hong Zhong, who had a pained expression on her face, could only feel a warm current slowly being injected into her back. The internal energy that was rampaging through her body was gradually being suppressed, and it was no longer as violent.
Only after a long while did he withdraw the palm that was placed on Hong Zhong's back. The beautiful face had a tinge of weariness, it was obvious that he had suppressed that inner force and spent too much energy to make Hong Zhong feel weak.
After bringing Hong Zhong out of the ice pool, she once again used inner force to dry the clothes on the two of them that were already soaked in ice. Then, he carried Hong Zhong and left the ice cave.
"Master, let's go." Wu Hen and Wu Shang saw the situation, and immediately rushed forward to welcome him.
Baili Mingyue looked at Hong Zhong, who was in her embrace, and shook her head: "I'm fine." With that, he carried Hong Zhong and left.
Wu Hen helplessly looked at Mo Chen, who immediately understood and stepped forward to advise him: "Master?" But, before Mo Chen could finish speaking, Baili Mingyue stopped in her tracks, and turned to look at Wu Hen and the other two, "You think I won't be able to hold on? I won't, until I'm sure that the little girl is fine, I will definitely be fine! " After he finished speaking, he left with Hong Zhong in his arms.
After turning a corner, he arrived at the private room of the Hundred Miles Manor and gently placed Hong Zhong on the bed. After tucking her in, Mo Chen went over and brought out an exquisite porcelain bottle from his waist and took out an emerald pill: "Mistress."
Baili Mingyue looked at the pill in his hand, "You refined it so early?" The medicinal effect of this medicine was very strange. Just concocting it required ten days. The most crucial part was that the final three days and three nights were very complicated.
He had to consume it every month when the cold poison reappeared, and because of the unique medicinal effects of this medicine, it could only be effective within ten days of being consumed. Every time he refined it, he only managed to refine a single pill, and that was why Mo Chen had to force the poison out of his body within ten days of the recurrence of the cold poison!
"This month's recovery is not as good as before. This subordinate will refine it as soon as possible in case of an emergency. Master, you were attacked by the thousand year old ice just now. Mo Chen said, and handed the pill over.
Baili Mingyue looked at the pill and paused, "Keep it. I don't need it for now. "Take a look for her."
"Yes." When Mo Chen heard this, he kept the pill and pulled on Hong Zhong's wrist to check her pulse: "Mistress, the internal energy in Third Miss's body has already been suppressed, it's just that Third Miss's two branches have not been cleared yet, and she doesn't have a foundation in internal energy either, so she can't use that internal energy yet. The current state of Third Miss isn't a thorny problem, it's mainly because when she absorbs internal energy, she's been affected by the cold energy within the Wintry Spring, and within ten days, Third Miss will feel that her body isn't well, and it is similar to infected with the cold energy."
The thousand year old ice was no joke. If an ordinary person did not have Qi to soak in it for fifteen minutes, they would be frozen to death. Although Hong Zhong's body was fifty years of cultivation in Master of Pure Wisdom, she could not control it. She was no different from a normal person, if not for Master's pure energy flowing through her body, she would have died a long time ago.
However, it was inevitable that he would be attacked by the cold qi!
Baili Mingyue tilted his head and glanced at Mo Chen, "Is it as simple as catching a cold?"
The clear and cold look in his eyes made Mo Chen feel a little weak. Because the surge of inner force was rampaging through Third Miss's body, it has already harmed all the meridians in Third Miss's body. During the recovery period, the meridians in Third Miss's entire body would be in pain as if they were reconstituted, but they would not be life-threatening. "
"How?" A clear and cold voice came out from Baili Mingyue's mouth. He knew about Mo Chen's medical skills. He should know how to answer such a question.
Mo Chen was startled, he muttered to himself for a long time, but he did not know what to say. Seeing that, Baili Mingyue frowned: "Even you can't remove it?" As he finished speaking, a cold pressure emanated from his body, colder than even the thousand-year-old ice from the icy caves.
"It's not that your subordinate is unable to cure it, it's just that this antidote is quite arduous!" He had just prepared the medicine for his master to consume, and now it could be cured! However, that medicine could only be used once a month to suppress Master's cold poison. If it was given to Hong Zhong to use, then this month's cold poison's recurrence would be completely useless!
With the addition of the Empress Dowager's birthday feast in the future, there was no way that Master's body would be in any danger at this time. As for Hong Zhong, who had been affected by the cold poison, could at most rest for ten days to half a month. With two to three months of rest, she would be able to recover.
In Mo Chen's heart, it was obvious who was more important between Hong Zhong and Baili Mingyue!
