My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!

The Emperor of Zhao, assisted by two eunuchs, walked in and directly asked the Medical Saint, "How should this poison be treated?"

The Medical Saint was silent for a moment before speaking, "The Gu insect within the Princess is no ordinary Gu. It hides in Her Highness's heart, and within a few two-hour periods, the Gu poison produced has already spread throughout her body through the bloodstream. Unless a healer of the Sixth Realm intervenes, or several Fifth Realm healers exhaust all their True Qi, only then could the Gu poison within Her Highness be completely eliminated..."

The Medical School has long been in decline. It has been two hundred years since a healer of the Sixth Realm last appeared.

Now, a healer of the Fifth Realm can already be called a Medical Saint.

And there is only one healer of the Fifth Realm.

Although the Medical Saint did not speak explicitly, everyone understood that no one on the current continent could save the Sixth Princess.

The Emperor of Zhao wobbled slightly, steadied himself with effort, and looked at the Medical Saint, asking, "If I were to pass the throne to her now..."

The Medical Saint shook his head, saying, "Only the True Qi of a healer can clear the Gu poison. Besides, if the Gu insect senses a threat, it will become extremely violent in an instant, and then..."

He left the sentence unfinished, but the Emperor of Zhao already understood.

At that time, his daughter would likely die even faster.

And the throne could only be passed to the living.

His face turned extremely grim as he said, "Investigate, find out who the Sixth Princess interacted with last night!"

An eunuch bowed and said, "As you command."

As the eunuch walked out of the hall, he sighed inwardly.

Last night, there was a grand banquet in the Imperial Palace. The Sixth Princess interacted with countless people, including many royal children and numerous court officials. Where should the investigation begin?

Inside the hall, the Emperor of Zhao looked at the Medical Saint and asked, "Can Zhiyi still be..."

The Medical Saint shook his head again, saying, "Although the Gu poison in Her Highness is not immediately fatal, it will accumulate more and more over time. At most, she only has three days of life left..."

The Emperor of Zhao was silent for a moment, then said, "Everyone, leave."

Upon hearing this, everyone exited the hall.

Their gazes swept over the four princes waiting outside the hall.

The Sixth Princess had already won the grand selection. If something happened to her, it would benefit them the most.

The one who poisoned the Sixth Princess was likely one of the four princes, or perhaps several of them.

Just as everyone was leaving, a figure with hands behind his back walked against the flow, slowly entering the hall.

The Emperor of Zhao glanced back, a last glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes, and said, "State Preceptor..."

The emaciated old man spoke, "Your Majesty, do not worry, the Sixth Princess's fate has not yet reached its end."

Although he did not know how she could be saved, with these words from the State Preceptor, the Emperor of Zhao immediately stopped worrying.

He looked at the State Preceptor again and asked, "Can the State Preceptor deduce who the poisoner is?"

The emaciated old man calculated with his fingers and said, "I cannot see it. Someone has obscured the celestial patterns, and the mastermind behind this is no simple person. Their motives are likely grand..."

...

A group of healers walked out of Zhaoyang Palace towards the palace gates.

The Sixth Princess had barely won the grand selection and was about to ascend to that supreme position when such a major incident occurred. Anyone would feel it was a pity.

Only the Sixth Princess valued the Medical School so much.

If another prince replaced her, the measures she had been implementing to promote the Medical School wouldn't last long.

The Medical Saint walked all the way in silence.

In fact, the Sixth Princess was not necessarily doomed.

As long as the Gu insect within her could be extracted, and the cultivation of dozens of Fourth Realm healers was exhausted, the Gu poison in her body could be completely removed.

He also had a way to extract the Gu insect.

But the cost would be all his cultivation..., and his life.

Without his cultivation, he would not be far from death either.

For an unrelated girl, to sacrifice himself, even though he was of the Medical School, he was not that selfless.

Furthermore, even if the Gu insect was extracted, numerous Fourth Realm healers would have to give up all their cultivation to cleanse the Gu poison in her, which would mean the end of the Medical School in Zhao Country...

He certainly could not do that.

At that moment, two figures suddenly came chasing from behind.

A handsome young man looked at the Medical Saint with excitement and asked, "May I ask if you are the Medical Saint, elder?"

Doctor Sun followed closely behind, hurriedly catching up, and said to the Medical Saint, "Master, this is Doctor Li, whom I often mention."

In fact, even without Sun Jing's explanation, the Medical Saint knew the identity of the young man before him.

So young, yet at the Fourth Realm of the Medical Path, there would be no one else but the recently famous rising star in the Medical World.

Li Nuo bowed to the Medical Saint and said, "Elder Medical Saint, I have admired you for a long time. I have some medical path questions I wish to discuss with you. Can you enlighten me, elder?"

The Medical Saint nodded and said, "Ask away."

For this rising star, he held no disdain; the young man's future achievements would surely surpass his own.

But for now, he still had to respectfully call him elder.

"Thank you, elder Medical Saint." As he spoke, he took out a banana from his sleeve, peeled it personally, and handed it to the Medical Saint, saying, "Please, elder, have some."

Doctor Sun scratched his head, not knowing where the banana came from...

Li Nuo bowed to the Medical Saint again and then asked, "May I ask, elder, about the Gu poison you mentioned just now. Could you elaborate a bit more..."

Looking at the banana handed to him by Li Nuo, the Medical Saint hesitated for a moment before taking it and then said, "Speaking of Gu poison, we must speak of the Gu Doctors. They are a group of healers who have strayed onto the wrong path, living by nurturing Gu. The Gu creatures they cultivate are all imbued with rare and potent poisons, which are extremely difficult to counter..."
