Shen Yunsheng looked at the unconscious old man, her heart filled with worry.

Ever since she brought this mysterious old man home, she's been going to her sister-in-law's house and hasn't even bothered to look after the old man.

Xiao Jingchuan was very worried when he saw that the old man was unconscious. He gave the old man's portrait to his men and asked them to help the old man find his family, but they still had no clues.

Shen Yunsheng couldn't help but blame himself. How could he have been so careless? If he had taken measures to treat the old man earlier, perhaps this situation could have been avoided.

Thinking of this, Shen Yunsheng immediately took the old man's pulse to see what was wrong with his body.

She gently grasped the old man's wrist, concentrating on feeling his pulse. As time passed, her expression grew increasingly grave.

As expected, the toxins in the old man's body had begun to spread, and at a very rapid pace. This surprised her greatly, as she had not noticed any abnormal signs before.

Could it be that these toxins have an incubation period, or are they being suppressed by some special force? While pondering various possibilities, Shen Yunsheng continued to carefully observe the old man's pulse. She discovered that the toxins seemed to have already invaded his internal organs, but the specific location and extent still needed further confirmation.

"Husband, it was my carelessness. If I had taken measures to treat Grandpa earlier, he wouldn't have fainted." At this moment, Shen Yunsheng's mood became increasingly heavy. If an antidote could not be found in time, the old man's life would probably be threatened.

"It's not your fault. The most important thing right now is to wake Grandpa up as soon as possible." Xiao Jingchuan felt very sorry for his grandfather. His own grandfather was about the same age as his grandfather. Although there were many guards in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, they were not his grandfather's relatives after all. The old man was sick and had no one to care for him. It was quite pitiful to think about.

007 handed the emergency pills to Shen Yunsheng, who immediately had the old man take them.

"My lord! You are knowledgeable and experienced, have you ever heard of a poison called Soul-Devouring Powder?"

"You mean Grandpa was poisoned by Soul-Devouring Powder?" Xiao Jingchuan looked at his wife in disbelief. In his previous life, his grandfather had been poisoned by Soul-Devouring Powder and lost his life. As far as he knew, Soul-Devouring Powder was not only an extremely rare slow-acting poison, but also a royal secret medicine of the Canglang Kingdom.

If the old man was poisoned by the Soul-Devouring Powder, then his identity must be extraordinary.

Otherwise, his enemies would not have gone to such lengths to harm him.

After frowning and thinking for a while, Xiao Jingchuan suddenly thought of a possible solution: his wife's blood was special, and perhaps it could help the old man clear the Soul-Devouring Powder from his body.

Shen Yunsheng looked at the old man in front of her with great anxiety; she really wanted to help him.

When she first felt the old man's pulse, she tried her healing powers, but she quickly realized that it wouldn't solve the problem. While her healing powers could treat many illnesses and wounds, they were powerless against poisoning.

"Husband, do you also know about Soul-Devouring Powder?" Seeing her husband's shocked expression, Shen Yunsheng concluded that he knew the origin of Soul-Devouring Powder. Perhaps she could use this clue to help the old man regain his memory.

"The Soul-Devouring Powder is a slow-acting poison that has been lost in the Canglang Kingdom for a long time. It can not only accelerate the failure of human organs, but also cause amnesia in the poisoned. If the old man has really been poisoned by the Soul-Devouring Powder, then it will be troublesome."

Xiao Jingchuan was worried about the old man. The person who poisoned him was too ruthless; he wanted the old man to die from organ failure.

Shen Yunsheng frowned, her expression hard. It seemed that the old man's identity was definitely not simple. She hoped that he would regain his memory soon. If his enemies found out that she had saved the old man, she would be in trouble.

"Husband, you and Hongyu go out first. I'll stay here to take care of Grandpa. You can come in when he wakes up."

Shen Yunsheng planned to send her husband and friend away so she could get blood to help the old man.

Xiao Jingchuan shared the same thought; his wife's secret was a matter of life and death, and he didn't want anyone else to know it.

"Wife, I'm entrusting Grandpa to you. If he wakes up, you must notify me immediately."

Xiao Jingchuan said goodbye and left with Li Hongyu.

In the room

When Shen Yunsheng was sure that her husband had gone far enough and would not come back, she took a deep breath, then bit her finger without hesitation and quickly placed it near the old man's mouth, letting the bright red blood drip into his chapped lips.

Every drop of blood carried her hope and determination; she hoped to bring a glimmer of hope to this life.

Time ticked by, and Shen Yunsheng watched the old man anxiously, hoping for a miracle. However, the old man's condition did not improve significantly, which made Shen Yunsheng's mood increasingly heavy.

Just when she was almost in despair, the old man's eyelids twitched slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes. Shen Yunsheng was overjoyed and quickly helped the old man up, asking with concern, "Grandpa, how are you feeling?"

The old man looked weakly at Shen Yunsheng, his eyes filled with gratitude. He struggled to speak, "Thank you, young lady...you saved me again..."

Shen Yunsheng smiled and shook his head: "Grandpa, please don't say that. This is what I should do."

Shen Yunsheng took the old man's hand and took his pulse. Although the Soul-Devouring Powder in his body had not been completely eliminated, he was much better than before.

The old man woke up safely, and 007 was overjoyed: "Great! Master, the old man has finally woken up."

Shen Yunsheng was also very happy. She looked at the old man with concern and asked him how he was feeling.

The old man looked at Shen Yunsheng gratefully and said that he was much better.
