Everyone in the room lowered their heads and remained silent.
The room was deathly silent.
Grandpa Ye sat by the bed, holding Ye Caijie's hand, his eyes filled with pain.
Ye Anling and her son stood behind Grandpa Ye, not daring to utter a single word.
He Dazhu was sweating profusely and terrified.
He was horrified to discover that the golden threadworms he had absorbed could not cure Ye Caijie's poisoning.
Under the observation of the Xuan Tian Divine Eye, the insect poison in Ye Anling's body continued to erode Ye Caijie's organs.
Now, thanks to the detoxifying effect of He Dazhu's golden threadworms, the spread of the poison in Ye Anling's body has slowed down.
Based on the Xuan Tian Medical Scripture in his mind, He Dazhu could tell that Ye Anling had at most about half a month left to live.
If the poison cannot be cured within half a month, Ye Anling will face the prospect of all her flesh being completely eroded by the insect poison within her body.
At that time, Ye Caijie will only have one piece of clothing and one pair of pants left.
With a solemn expression, Grandpa Ye said, "This poison Cai Jie has is the Black Scorpion Venom of a first-class poison master from Miao territory."
"It's a hundred times more potent than the purple threadworm poison I was given."
He Dazhu stood to the side with his head down, only able to acknowledge what Master Ye had said.
He has no way of curing the poison that Ye Caijie is suffering from!
Old Master Ye glanced at He Dazhu with a complicated expression, then said, "The only way to save Caijie now is to go to Miao territory and get the Hundred-Year Golden Silkworm."
He Dazhu hurriedly said, "There's no time to lose, let's hurry to Miao territory to retrieve the golden silkworm to save Ye Caijie."
"If Ye Caijie's poison is not treated, she will only have half a month to live."
"In half a month, Ye Caijie will not even have a stone capital left."
He Dazhu's words shocked Ye Hua and her son.
However, Ye Long's face remained unchanged, as if he had expected it all along.
Ye Long slowly said to He Dazhu, "He Dazhu, you are indeed no ordinary doctor."
"Ordinary people would not be able to diagnose my illness or predict how long Caijie could live."
He Dazhu immediately sensed that Ye Long's words had a hidden meaning, as if he wanted to say something.
He Dazhu said, "Grandpa Ye, if you have anything to say, just say it."
“I’m listening to everything.”
Seeing He Dazhu's sudden enlightenment, Old Master Ye was very satisfied and slowly told him about something he had never even told his family.
"Ye Long and I were originally directly under the protection of the Dragon Kingdom."
Upon hearing Grandpa Ye's words, Ye Anling and her son were immediately surprised.
They all knew that Old Master Ye used to work in the central government of China, but no one knew exactly which department he worked in.
Not to mention the fact that it is protected by the Long Guoting family, which is not even made public.
The Dragon Kingdom Court Guard is essentially Dragon King's secret service, primarily responsible for protecting the safety of important officials of the Dragon Kingdom.
However, with the tragic murder of He Changfeng, a high-ranking official of the Dragon Kingdom, the prestige of the Dragon Kingdom's court was completely destroyed.
When the Twelve Guardians of the Court went to He Changfeng's house, they found nothing except He Changfeng's clothes and trousers.
The marks on the clothes and pants looked as if someone had worn them, and there were obvious signs of struggle.
As the investigation deepened, everyone realized that He Changfeng had been poisoned by the Miao witchcraft.
Despite reaching this conclusion, no one in the Imperial Household Department had any clue how the enemy had entered the residence of a high-ranking official and how they had poisoned him.
They didn't even notice.
In a fit of anger, the King of the Dragon Kingdom ordered that the entire incompetent court guard be buried alive with him.
Just then, the first-ranked Dragon Fist Dragon General of the Twelve Guardians of the Court stepped forward and took all the blame.
This ultimately prevented all twelve of the Imperial Guards from being beheaded.
Thus ended the life of Dragon General, the first level of the twelve-level Dragon Fist, a peerless master of the Dragon Kingdom, and a famous general who had protected countless important officials.
And me!
Ye Long!!!
A useless fifth-level Dragon Fist user has been barely surviving under the protection of the Dragon General.
As Grandpa Ye was speaking, he suddenly became extremely agitated and coughed violently.
"Dad, don't get agitated. You're not fully recovered yet," Ye Anling quickly stepped forward to comfort Ye Long.
He Dazhu's expression turned serious after hearing Ye Long's words.
"I'm pretty useless to have survived this long by relying on other people's protection."
"The other guards have mostly left due to their age, or some have disappeared into the deep mountains."
"As for me, I'm still barely clinging to life here."
"Dad, don't say that. This isn't entirely your fault," Ye Anling said, crying.
He Dazhu said, "Grandpa Ye, haven't you ever thought about helping General Long get revenge?"
"revenge?"
"I've thought about it!"
"I think about it every single day!"
"But we all know that Miao Gu exists, and we have searched all over the Dragon Kingdom but have not been able to find where Miao territory is."
"All of them were ordinary Miao compatriots from the Dragon Kingdom, and none of them were the Miao Gu poison that killed the Dragon General."
"As time goes by, and things have progressed to the present day, China is now governed by technology."
"No one cares about the past of us old useless people anymore, and everyone is gradually losing their strength."
"The Twelve Guardians of the Court have become a historical joke, forever nailed to the pillar of historical shame."
"But now, the Gu poison of Miao territory has reappeared."
"But I am already old and gray, and I can't even protect my own daughter."
daughter?
Upon hearing this, Ye Anling and her son were shocked.
In an instant, Ye Anling seemed to understand the immense humiliation Song Qingwen had suffered in the Ye family.
He also understood Song Qingwen's idea of poisoning Ye Long.
Ye Long continued, "Now I have only one wish, and that is to make sure that the Gu poison master who brought shame to Long Guoting and framed Caijie is not let go."
Ye Long glanced at He Dazhu as he spoke.
He Dazhu understood Ye Long's meaning perfectly; he hoped that he could investigate the matter and obtain the Golden Silkworm.
Ye Long then said, "He Dazhu, I know that anyone who can use this poison is at least a peerless master of Gu poison."
"At least a Level 1 Poison Master."
"This trip is likely to be fraught with danger. If you are willing to go, I am willing to pass on the secret manual of the Twelfth Level Dragon Fist to you."
Upon hearing this, He Dazhu was immediately shocked.
Although He Dazhu is now a cultivator of the Twentieth Level of the Profound Heaven Technique.
His internal energy is comparable to that of many unparalleled masters in the Dragon Kingdom.
However, He Dazhu also faces an important problem: He Dazhu does not know any fighting techniques, and all his attacks rely on brute force. He has no experience in fighting skills whatsoever.
If He Dazhu were to encounter a peerless master from the Dragon Kingdom, and their true energy were evenly matched, He Dazhu would likely be at a disadvantage.
He Dazhu gritted his teeth and said, "Grandpa Ye, I promise you..."
