However, they had no chance to escape. More and more soldiers surged in from all directions, surrounding them completely.
Xu Yuehuai's heart was filled with despair; they were in dire straits. Just then, a familiar voice broke the tense atmosphere.
That was the voice of the Ghost Doctor: "Don't worry, I'll take care of them."
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze turned around and saw that the Ghost Doctor had arrived beside them at some point.
With a wave of his hand, a powerful surge of internal energy erupted from his hand, instantly repelling the soldiers.
The soldiers were caught off guard by the sudden attack and retreated, not daring to approach any closer.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze took the opportunity to follow the Ghost Doctor and escape from Yaochi.
They hurried along the way, fearing the soldiers would catch up. Fortunately, with the guidance of the Ghost Doctor, they successfully returned to the capital of Dongsang Kingdom.
However, when they stepped into the royal city, they found that the entire city was surrounded by soldiers.
The wanted posters were hung high in the streets and alleys, with their portraits prominently displayed on them.
"It seems we're now wanted by the authorities," Xu Yuehuai said with a wry smile.
Qi Guze gripped his sword tightly: "So what? We don't want to be their enemy. Even if their king comes, we are still in the right."
Having said that, he straightened his chest and led Xu Yuehuai and Qi Ziang swiftly through the crowd. His gaze was firm, and every step seemed to be full of power.
Under his protection, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Ziang felt incredibly safe.
Through their efforts, they finally found a safe hiding place. There, they could temporarily escape the soldiers' pursuit and rest.
"What should we do next?" Xu Yuehuai asked.
The Ghost Doctor pondered for a moment: "We need to develop a detailed plan. The current situation is very unfavorable for us, and we must act as soon as possible."
Qi Guze nodded in agreement: "That's right, we must get rid of those people as soon as possible, but for now, let's treat Zi'ang first."
The Ghost Doctor was extremely shocked when he heard what he said.
"Have you found the Jade Pool Immortal Herb?"
Xu Yuehuai took out the Jade Pool Immortal Herb and said, "Hmm."
When the celestial herb was delivered to the Ghost Doctor, the entire room was filled with tension. The Ghost Doctor stared intently at the herb in his hand, taking a deep breath. "This is indeed the Jade Pool Celestial Herb!"
Xu Yuehuai sighed with emotion: "Finally, we can treat Zi'ang."
The Ghost Doctor smiled with relief: "Yes, I'll make the medicine for him now."
Everyone was extremely excited, knowing that this fairy herb from Yaochi would bring Zi'ang new life and hope.
The Ghost Doctor gently lifted Qi Ziang's blanket and carefully examined his condition. His brows were furrowed, clearly deep in thought about treatment options.
After a long while, he finally raised his head, smiled slightly at Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai, and said, "Now that I have the Yaochi Immortal Herb, I am fully confident that I can cure him."
Upon hearing this, Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai were immediately moved to tears. They knew that this "ghost doctor" was the world's top physician, and if he took action, their son could be saved.
The Ghost Doctor got busy, carefully processing the immortal herbs and brewing them into a pill.
The pill emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance that soothed the mind and spirit. After Qi Zi'ang took the pill, his breathing gradually stabilized. His complexion also began to regain its rosy hue, as if the power of life was slowly returning.
Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai were speechless with emotion as they clasped hands at the sight. Their eyes were filled with gratitude and hope, as if they could already see the day their son would wake up again.
Throughout the process, the Ghost Doctor remained calm and focused. He constantly observed Qi Ziang's reactions and adjusted the treatment plan as needed.
Every move he made was full of professionalism and confidence, which filled people with admiration for him.
As time passed, Qi Ziang's condition improved. His breathing became stronger, and his complexion became rosier.
Seeing all this, Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai finally felt relieved. They thanked the Ghost Doctor with tears of gratitude, saying, "Sir, you are truly a miracle worker who saved my son's life."
The Ghost Doctor smiled and shook his head, saying modestly, "I was just doing my best to treat you, young master."
Qi Ziang's condition was getting better and better. When he slowly opened his eyes, he saw his family members with joy in their eyes.
He chuckled softly, "Mother, have I been asleep for a long time? Why are you all staying by my bedside?"
That smile was like a spring breeze, warming everyone's heart.
Qi Guze looked at him, his eyes slightly red: "You made us worry to death." But the smile on his lips couldn't hide his relief and joy.
Xu Yuehuai and the Ghost Doctor also gathered around, too excited to speak. Their eyes were filled with excitement and joy as they looked at Qi Ziang.
"You're finally all better." Xu Yuehuai's voice was filled with tears and laughter.
The joy and emotion at this moment seemed to melt away all the ice and snow. After this ordeal, Xu Yuehuai now wants to settle down with her family as soon as possible and doesn't want to encounter such sudden danger again.
Qi Ziang was lying in the hospital bed when he saw Qi Guze, Xu Yuehuai, and the Ghost Doctor looking so excited that they almost cried. He was stunned for a moment.
"Father, Mother, Uncle Ghost Doctor, you don't need to worry about Zi'ang anymore. Isn't Zi'ang perfectly fine now?" he said quickly, a warm feeling welling up in his heart.
Xu Yuehuai quickly walked to the bedside, hugged Qi Ziang tightly, and sobbed, "Yes! Ziang will be alright!" Her tears wet Qi Ziang's cheeks, but he felt an unprecedented warmth.
Qi Guze also came over and hugged the mother and son tightly, his eyes full of love and comfort.
As the Ghost Doctor watched this heartwarming scene of the family of three, he couldn't help but recall his own painful memories. He left the room dejectedly and went outside to the courtyard to sigh.
Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai stayed by Qi Ziang's bedside, comforting him from time to time.
As night fell, oil lamps were lit in the room, their warm yellow light casting a comforting glow on their faces.
As Qi Ziang lay in bed, feeling his parents' love, a surge of gratitude welled up in his heart.
He recalled how his older sister, the princess, had shown him the same care and concern when he was sick as a child.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment, leaving only the warmth and companionship between the family of three.
The Ghost Doctor was busy treating his injuries. His technique was skillful and swift, and every acupuncture was accurate and every dose of medicine was just right.
