Song Yangyang finally admitted to the matter; she really was the Ghost Doctor!
"Then can you see my royal uncle?" Song Yangyang asked, suppressing her shock.
“Since the little princess has spoken, of course it is possible.” Liu Yue nodded gently.
"That's great!" Song Yangyang was extremely excited.
God has been incredibly kind to her.
At the same time, she was also glad that she hadn't gone against Jun Liuyue when she was at the academy.
She murmured: "Luckily, Jun Liuyue didn't agree to go to the dueling stage with me, otherwise..."
What are you muttering about?
"No, it's nothing!" Song Yangyang shivered. She couldn't even imagine how terrible it would be if she really did that—
——
The White Tiger Empire's imperial palace is filled with elements related to the White Tiger, such as White Tiger animal patterns and stone statues.
Even at the entrance to the palace, there are two majestic white tiger statues.
After passing through the intricate palace corridors, pavilions, and waterside terraces, we finally arrived at Qingning Hall.
The White Tiger Emperor summoned the Prince of Qi early in the morning.
At this moment, King Qi was leaning lazily back in his chair, yawning.
"Your Majesty is really something, these quack doctors—what's so interesting about them?" Over the years, quite a few 'miracle doctors' have entered the palace.
At first, King Qi took a lot of medicine, but there was no effect whatsoever.
He was never able to gather spiritual energy—
Over time, King Qi lost his enthusiasm for repairing his dantian.
It's better to get some more sleep.
Jun Liuyue entered the main hall behind Song Yangyang.
"Greetings, Your Majesty, Prince Qi." Jun Liuyue nodded slightly but did not perform a formal salute.
The White Tiger Emperor didn't care about any of that.
"Little Six, quickly let the Ghost Doctor take a look." The White Tiger Emperor hurriedly waved his hand.
“Brother, what can these quack doctors do besides prescribing some awfully bitter herbal medicine? Besides…” Prince Qi turned and looked Jun Liuyue up and down: “What real skills could such a young pretty boy possibly have?”
"Father, Imperial Uncle, Young Master Jun is really amazing," Song Yangyang said hurriedly, afraid that Jun Liuyue would get angry and leave.
"Yangyang, you're still young, don't let these pretty boys fool you."
King Qi waved his hand, "I know my own body. Even without cultivation, I can still live a normal life. It's alright, brother, you don't need to worry so much about my health."
"If you don't care about your cultivation level, why are you still taking Spirit Gathering Pills?"
A cold voice suddenly rang out, interrupting King Qi's next words.
These words were spoken.
The already empty hall was now so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Song Yangyang clicked her tongue in amazement and looked at Jun Liuyue.
Then he looked at his uncle, only to see that his uncle's face had stiffened—
"Heh." After a full ten seconds of silence, King Qi sneered, "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? When did I ever take a spirit-gathering pill?"
"Given Your Highness's current physical condition, attempting to use pills to boost your cultivation is not only impossible but will also cause irreversible damage. If I'm not mistaken, Your Highness was able to gather some spiritual energy at the beginning, but after taking the pills, he was completely unable to sense any spiritual energy at all."
Liu Yue paused, then looked at Prince Qi: "Your Highness Prince Qi, am I right?"
Upon hearing this, the King of Qi's face turned completely ugly.
The White Tiger Emperor looked at King Qi with surprise.
Then, looking at Jun Liuyue: "Then his dantian..."
“Of course the dantian can be repaired.” Liu Yue nodded, “but it will require enduring hundreds of times more pain than when the dantian was shattered. It depends on whether His Highness Prince Qi can withstand it.”
"Kid, are you telling the truth?"
After a long while, King Qi frowned and looked at Jun Liuyue.
I wanted to see panic on the boy's face, but he remained calm and composed, chatting and laughing without showing any fear.
"Of course it's true." Jun Liuyue nodded calmly. "I wonder if King Qi has ever heard of 'destruction before construction'?"
"What's the meaning?"
"The dantian is indeed irreparable, but there is an extreme method: to completely destroy the original dantian and reshape a new one."
"Hahaha, do you know what you're saying? Destruction before construction?" King Qi seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.
"Boy, do you really think that I and His Majesty are three-year-old children who can be toyed with at will?"
King Qi looked at Emperor Baihu: "Your Majesty, this man is talking nonsense. It would be better to kick him out of the palace as soon as possible, so as not to mislead people and spread alarmist rumors here."
Jun Liuyue was not surprised by King Qi's reaction.
Emperor Baihu did not expect that King Qi would resist this matter so much.
We had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being.
After King Qi left, Emperor Baihu looked at Jun Liuyue and said, "This matter was not well thought out by me. I hope you will not take it to heart, Doctor Gui."
"Your Majesty is overthinking it. Your Majesty's heart is set on Prince Qi, and Prince Qi will understand," Liu Yue said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
The White Tiger Emperor kept Jun Liuyue in the palace and prepared a palace for her.
Jun Liuyue did not refuse. If her prediction was correct, the people from Tianjing Island had already arrived in Baihu Kingdom and could make a move at any time.
Alchemists on the mainland are all very arrogant, and the White Tiger Emperor did not expect Jun Liuyue to be so easy to talk to.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
I don't know what's wrong with Xiao Liu.

The night was dark.
A dark aura enveloped the Qingqiu Palace. A black afterimage flashed by, moving too fast to be seen again, and had already disappeared without a trace.
The man in black climbed into the hall through the window and walked to the bedside.
The long sword in his hand gleamed with a chilling light under the faint moonlight streaming through the window.
Then he thrust the sword fiercely into the slightly raised blanket on the bed, *crack!* The sword pierced through the soft blanket.
The man in black's expression changed, and he angrily threw off the blanket, only to find there was only one pillow!
We've been discovered!
The man in black quickly turned around, holding his cold sword in front of him. The cold needles pierced the sword with a series of sharp sounds.
Suddenly looking up, the man in black saw a red figure reflected in his eyes.
But the next second... the figure on the windowsill had disappeared.
It moved so fast that only a fleeting afterimage could be seen!
"Tsk."
A girl's disdainful voice reached her ears, and Liu Yue raised her foot to kick the man in black in the lower back.
The man in black suddenly spun around, his sword tip aimed at the girl's face.
The girl remained calm and unhurried. In her eyes, the man in black seemed to move at a slower pace. She raised her foot and kicked him away.
The longsword fell from mid-air, and Liu Yue caught it with her hand, piercing the black-clad man's shoulder blade with a single strike.
She stepped on his chest and said, "Tell me, who sent you to assassinate me?"
Before he could finish speaking, black blood spilled from the man's mouth.
It's poison.
