Chapter 241 Deterrence



Ran Chenghong was not stingy and actually took out several bottles and jars and gave them to Xiang Yuanqing. Xiang Yuanqing immediately took out the best one and fed it to Lin Jinghan, and also took a medicine to replenish qi and blood.

After a while, Lin Jinghan's complexion looked better, and the two of them quickly checked her again.

"I said she was suffering from deficiency of Qi and blood." Ran Chenghong said confidently. He then looked at Sikong Zhan who was half lying on the bed and grabbed his hand without saying a word.

At this moment, Ran Chenghong's face changed drastically.

"You are courting death. You have used a force you shouldn't have used. You will surely die. There is no way to save you."

"If the situation wasn't so serious, why would I call you here? Can't I cure common diseases myself?" Xiang Yuanqing was unhappy. He had been worried about Sikong Zhan's health for three days and hadn't given up. But when this Medicine King came, he said that the person couldn't be saved. He really deserved to be called the Medicine King who "didn't save people when they were dying"!

"I can't save him, but I can keep him alive. First treat the internal and external injuries, then suppress some of the bloodline power, and gradually control the backlash of the internal force. How long I can delay it depends on his luck." Ran Chenghong sighed.

"Does Pavilion Master have any better ideas?"

"I've thought of this method as well, but I'm afraid we won't be able to suppress the overbearing bloodline power in his body with just the two of us. It will require at least three grandmasters. I've already sent a message to Lao Gu. With the combined strength of the three of us, we should be able to stabilize his condition first." Xiang Yuanqing said.

There are not many grand masters in the Tianxuan Continent. Even if they don’t know each other, they have heard of each other’s names.

Ran Chenghong nodded and asked:

"The old Gu you mentioned is the Martial Saint Gu Chuan? If we add his strength, it should be enough. How long will it take him to get there? This kid won't last for a few days."

The two people with the best medical skills in the world were here, and both declared that they could not save him. Sikong Zhan knew that he was truly beyond help.

He had anticipated this outcome when he activated his bloodline power.

"I can hold on."

He was not afraid of death, but he regretted that he could not spend his life with Jinghan. Before he died, he wanted to make arrangements for everyone in the Jingnan Palace and for his Jinghan.

Therefore, he must be alive before Lin Jinghan wakes up.

Guchuan was a grandmaster, and he was trying his best to hurry on his way, so he was naturally much faster than Sikong Zhan and the others on horseback, and he arrived at Prince Jingnan's Mansion that night.

The three grandmasters, Xiang Yuanqing, Gu Chuan and Ran Chenghong, worked together and spent a whole night to finally stabilize Sikong Zhan's injuries.

Sikong Zhan thanked the three of them calmly, then asked Gu Chuan, "How much time do I have left?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? As long as I am here, you still have a lot of time!" Gu Chuan stood up and walked out.

"If your master can save you once, I can save you a second, third, and fourth time! Doesn't the Green Lotus Manual belong to Nanzhao? I'll go over to Nanzhao and I don't believe I can find a solution!"

"Master!" Sikong Zhan wanted to call Guchuan, but Guchuan had already disappeared.

Xiang Yuanqing gently patted Sikong Zhan's shoulder.

"As long as we can resolve the backlash of the Azure Lotus Codex in your body and suppress the bloodline power in your body, you will be able to recover. In the future, as long as you break through to the Grandmaster level as soon as possible, you may be able to control this bloodline power."

The division of cultivation realms in the Tianxuan Continent is very general. Those who practice martial arts are called warriors below the Grandmaster level. Only those who reach the Grandmaster level can be considered experts. Above the Grandmaster level is the Grandmaster. Each realm is divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced levels. Among them, the advanced Grandmaster can be called a Martial Saint.

Last time, Sikong Zhan got help from Lin Jinghan and temporarily resolved the backlash of the Qinglian Manual, and then he broke through to the advanced master level.

However, the transition from Grandmaster to Grandmaster is a chasm that many people cannot overcome in their entire lives. Therefore, there are not many Grandmasters on the continent, and it is not certain that one Grandmaster will emerge among a thousand warriors.

"I know my body very well. I was able to suppress this Azure Lotus Codex before, but this time, it has penetrated every inch of my meridians and entangled with my own internal energy. Even if I use up all my skills, it will be of no use."

Sikong Zhan shook his head and thanked the two of them again earnestly.

"You've bought me some extra time, allowing me to take care of my affairs after my death. I'm already very satisfied. Tell me honestly, how much longer do I have?"

"You have at most half a month before you find a new solution. However, if you can find a way to make the Azure Lotus Codex leave your body on its own, everything will be solved."

"That's enough. Pavilion Master Xiang, I'm going out to do something. Please help take care of Jinghan. If she wakes up, don't tell her about my condition." Sikong Zhan pushed the door open and walked out of the Jingnan Palace.

"Don't worry, Jinghan is my disciple, I will take good care of her." Xiang Yuanqing also followed him out and went straight to Lin Jinghan's room.

"If you use your internal force, you will die faster." Ran Chenghong said to Sikong Zhan's back, and then followed Xiang Yuanqing's steps.

The morning court session that day was exceptionally quiet, because Prince Jingnan came to attend the court session for the first time.

Everyone looked at him with bated breath, wondering what he was going to do here.

Sikong Zhan glanced at the new emperor and didn't take him seriously at all.

“I, Your Majesty, want to tell you a few things.

"First, my princess is not a demon. If anyone dares to slander her again, I will send him to hell!

"Secondly, I don't care who becomes the emperor, but if anyone dares to touch my people, no matter who they are, I will never let them go!

"Third, I will be returning to Jingnan with my people soon. You don't need to see me off. If anyone dares to stand in my way, the late emperor will do the same to you."

After saying that, Sikong Zhan left in a domineering manner.

The incident of Prince Jingnan massacring the Golden Palace was still fresh in people’s minds, and no one in the entire court dared to utter a word.

Sikong Zhan's strength was now less than 10% and he would likely die on the spot if he attacked. If any of them had been able to resist, they could have stopped him. But they were terrified and watched King Jingnan leave.

The new emperor did not seem angry, and even cooperated by transferring the people of the Beijing Machinery Defense Battalion back from the Bugui Mountain.

As soon as the Beijing Defense Battalion withdrew, Mu Wenyao immediately returned to the capital, hurried to find Sikong Zhan, and brought back Tang Xin.

Seeing that the Jingnan Palace had been restored to its original state, Mu Wenyao finally felt relieved. As soon as they met, he hugged Sikong Zhan's arm tightly, "Ah Zhan!"

"I have decided to return to Jingnan in a few days. Do you want to stay in the capital or go to Jingnan to be a general of the Jingnan Army?" Sikong Zhan asked.

"Why are you in such a hurry? That Ouyang Ji is a complete wimp. He only became emperor because of you. Now, even if you drive the Ouyang family out and become emperor yourself, those people won't dare to say a word!"
