Chapter 735: We Can't Delay Any Longer
Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, then realized: "Your Highness, do you want the Demon Lord to get involved?"
"The one who tied the knot must untie it," Chi Ye uttered.
Qingzhu nodded knowingly: "Yes, I will go right away."
At this moment, in the Demon Realm, in the Demon Palace.
Li Yuan sat on the bed in his palace, leaning against a soft pillow, while Bai knelt on one knee beside the bed, reporting on the events of the past few days.
Inside the palace, the occasional low cough could be heard.
Bai stopped reporting, his face showing concern: "Your Majesty, your health..."
"Cough cough..."
Li Yuan's face was still a little pale, and he was coughing uncontrollably. He turned his face away and covered his mouth. With his sharp eyes, he immediately saw the traces of blood seeping out from between his fingers!
Bai quickly helped Li Yuan up and shouted to the guards waiting outside the palace, "Quickly! Get a physician!"
Suddenly, hurried footsteps echoed outside the palace. Li Yuan closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing the metallic taste that was about to rise in his throat. He took a breath and then opened his purple eyes to stare at Jiang Bai: "Where is the Emperor and Empress?"
"Your Majesty, the Empress is currently in the Demon Realm. With the Holy Emperor present, the Empress will be safe."
The physician arrived quickly, bowed, and immediately went to check Li Yuan's pulse.
Jiang Bai asked anxiously, "How is Your Majesty's health?"
"Reporting to Protector Bai, His Majesty's prolonged illness is due to the fact that his excessive use of spiritual energy last time exacerbated the flare-up of the poison. He should not use spiritual energy again and must continue to recuperate; otherwise..."
The doctor dared not continue.
Bai gritted his teeth, "That damned Flame Poison again!"
Currently, the only thing that can completely cure the Flame Poison is the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill. Not to mention how difficult it is to find the medicinal materials, the only ancestor who can refine the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill, Qiu Yu, is now missing...
Bai took a deep breath, waved to the doctor, and signaled him to leave.
After the physician left the palace, he turned to Li Yuan with a grave expression and said, "Your Majesty, the fire poison in your body cannot be delayed any longer!"
"Cough cough..." Li Yuan coughed rapidly, his hands clenched tightly under his sleeves.
After a long pause, Li Yuan wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and said slowly, "We can't delay any longer."
As long as the inflammatory poison in his body remains, the days he can spend by Fei'er's side will be numbered...
Li Yuan took a deep breath, turned to look at Jiang Bai, and said in a low voice, "Jiang Bai, send a hundred demon guards to find the whereabouts of the ancestor Qiu Yu. Once you find him, bring him back to the Demon Realm immediately."
"If he doesn't cooperate, use some tricks to force him to obey."
Li Yuan emphasized the last word.
Jiang Bai: "Your subordinate obeys!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than footsteps sounded outside the palace, followed by the door being pushed open. Li Yu knelt on one knee before the bed: "Qingzhu, the attendant of the Holy Emperor Chi Ye, requests an audience with Your Majesty!"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes: "Yes."
At a command, several demon guards brought Qingzhu to the palace.
When Qingzhu saw Li Yuan sitting on the bed with a pale face, she was a little surprised: Wasn't it said that Li Yuan's injuries had improved?
However, now is not the time to ask questions. Qingzhu bowed to Liyuan and said, "Your Highness, Miss Ye has been cultivating alone in seclusion for five days, during which time she has not eaten or drunk anything. His Majesty the Holy Emperor is worried that Miss Ye may suffer from qi deviation, so... he hopes that you can go to the Demon Realm."
Upon hearing the words "qi deviation," Li Yuan's expression changed drastically. He anxiously got up to leave the palace, but suddenly everything went black before his eyes, and his body swayed as if he were about to collapse—
