The witch doctor glanced at Yin Changling, whose face was dark and gloomy, and then at the stunningly beautiful woman in front of him. He couldn't understand the relationship between the two of them.
However, he was merely a subject, and all he had to do was obey His Majesty's orders.
So the witch doctor looked up at Yin Changling and asked him whether he should speak out.
"His Majesty……"
"explain."
Yin Changling had been waiting for this moment, so why not let him speak now? Only by letting him speak could he proceed with his next move.
The witch doctor only dared to speak after obtaining Yin Changling's approval, as this was indeed a shocking secret.
"Your Majesty, this last elixir is dragon blood, which refers to the heart blood of someone who has obtained the true dragon's aura, that is, Your Majesty's heart blood."
"This heart's blood is a person's essence and blood. Taking this blood is extremely dangerous and may endanger your life."
"If the Grand Preceptor were here, I would be eighty percent certain that I could obtain the person's heart's blood."
The shaman was unaware of the matter. With the incident at the Imperial Preceptor's residence, he didn't know who the prescription was for, so he only told Yin Changling what he knew.
"If the Imperial Advisor is not present, how confident are you?"
Yin Changling asked what Tu Shan Lingxi also wanted to know, since they both knew that the Imperial Advisor was unlikely to come; he was the one who used the medicine.
The witch doctor was startled. Judging from His Majesty's words, did His Majesty truly intend to take his heart's blood?
He wouldn't dare to rip out the heart of a king; it could be fatal. Even if the Grand Preceptor were here, he wouldn't dare to do anything.
"Your Majesty, you must cherish your health. I would never dare to do such a treasonous thing."
The witch doctor immediately knelt down and kept kowtowing to Yin Changling. He was terrified.
The witch doctor prayed in his heart, "Even if the tyrant has lost his mind, please don't let him drag me down with him."
Although he possessed certain medical skills, even considered quite advanced, the blood from the heart was different from the blood from ordinary flesh and blood; it damaged the lungs and internal organs.
Seeing this, Tu Shan Lingxi understood how deadly it was for the fragile human race to take heart blood.
She wanted to refuse, but wasn't Wan Qijin's life important? The Imperial Preceptor had saved her life.
Tu Shan Lingxi was caught in a dilemma. She didn't want to be a bad person, but this was clearly a matter of life for life.
Yin Changling looked at Tu Shan Lingxi, who was clearly deep in thought, but he wasn't too worried. He didn't value his own life anyway.
If it's worth risking his life for, what does it matter if he fails so Tu Shan Ling Xi will remember him forever, or if he succeeds so she'll change her opinion of him?
"It's alright. Go and prepare the remaining medicinal herbs. Once they're ready, present them to me. The matter of taking the heart's blood must not be leaked."
Before Tu Shan Lingxi could speak, Yin Changling had already made the decision; if he felt it was worthwhile, then it was worthwhile.
The witch doctor was the only victim in the entire incident, and he never expected that His Majesty would have such a crazy idea.
"Absolutely not, Your Majesty! Please spare this old minister!"
For a witch doctor, what difference is there between this and murdering the king with one's own hands? This is a capital crime that will cost one's head and leave one with eternal infamy.
Yin Changling did not allow the witch doctor to refute him; he had already made up his mind, and nothing could change it.
"This matter is not open to discussion. Do as you please, and I will guarantee your life. But if you refuse, your head will roll right now."
