Reincarnation of the God of Medicine
Chapter 291: Treating the patriach
#Xianlun alchemist building
#Twenty minutes after Xiao Tian left
Tok tok tok tok
There was a sound of someone knocking at the entrance. Tian Ling headed straight for the door and then opened it without hesitation.
When the door was wide open, Tian Ling saw a man wearing all white with earrings and a necklace with a shape resembling the sun standing right in front of him.
"Older Zhao?" ask Tian Ling.
"Who's coming, Tian Ling?" xianlun asked as she walked out of her compounding room.
###
"Pe ... elder Zhao?"
"Did something happen to patrtria?" xianlun said with wide eyes.
"If I could say no, but unfortunately reality says otherwise. Please come to the main building. Patriach was dying at this moment, the poison in his body started to strike back. And far more ferocious than yesterday's poison" Elder Zhao said as he clenched his hands together.
"Isn't it still afternoon?"
"Why did the poison strengthen earlier?"
"It usually only relapses in the middle of the night" Xianlun said with a surprised look.
"I don't understand, so I came here as fast as I could. Please quickly meet the patriach, and press the poison as usual," Elder Zhao said as he lowered his head.
"You don't need to lower your head, elder Elder Zhao. This is already my responsibility as one of the elders of the thunderstorm college alchemist branch," Xianlun said as she clenched her palms together.
##
Xianlun had reached the main building of the barbed storm college. He headed straight to the room where the patriach was being cared for.
As usual, outside the room the elders gathered and put on a worried look. As the others waited outside worriedly, Xia Ning and Xiang Ying took turns to try to suppress the poison in the elder's body with all the methods at their disposal. But because the way the poison worked was beyond their comprehension, they eventually gave up.
They stopped trying, as each method they used only worsened and instead strengthened the poison themselves. When Xianlun entered the room, Xiang Ying and Xia Ning immediately bowed their bodies and begged that Xianlun immediately give the poison suppressing pills that Xianlun used to give for these four days.
Even though they hated it so much, they did so knowing that only Xianlun could suppress the poison.
During these four days, no one knew what and where the poison attacking the patriach came from.
And during those four days anyway, they tried to make pills according to Xianlun's prescription. But the pills they purified no one could match Xianlun's pill.
Because other than the pill Xianlun concocted, no one could suppress the poison. Although at midnight the next day, the poison would strengthen again to make Patriach almost dying.
This was the fifth day, and the first time the poison in Patriach's body had strengthened in the afternoon. Because of this, Xianlun began to think with Xiao Tian's words.
Realizing that what happened to Patriach was his fault, he rushed to Patriach's body. Then directly inserted the level five pill he had concocted with Xiao Tian's guidance.
Right after the pill was swallowed, Patriach's eyes suddenly turned red. All his muscles and veins suddenly tense up. Shortly after, he vomited so much black blood.
"What pill did you give me!"
"Why does the patriach condition look worse!" xiang Ying said as he pulled Xianlun's collar.
"Calm down, I did give you a different pill than before. But I firmly believe that the pill can cure Patriach," Xianlun replied with a cold sweat.
"If Patriach's life is lost, then I won't forgive you!" snarled Xiang Ying while pushing back Xianlun.
"If that happens then you can finish me off" Xianlun said, clenching both hands.
"The Knights haven't stopped spewing blood since. If this continues, the patriach will definitely bleed to death."
"Actually what pills did you give the patriach?"
"Is it your concoction, or someone else's concoction?" xia Ning asked with a glance towards Xianlun.
"That's my concoction, I just finished concocting it twenty minutes ago," Xianlun explained as she looked at Xia Ning.
"Have you tested that pill before?"
"Or was patriach the first person to swallow the pill?" xia Ning asked while frowning.
"The first time, but I'm very confident that this pill can definitely cure Patriach," Xianlun said as she returned Xia Ning's gaze.
"If this is the first time you've given someone the pill. Doesn't that mean that you made Patriach your guinea pig?" xiang Ying asked as he stared intently at Xianlun's eyes.
"This is the first time you've given someone your new pill. Why do you look so sure?"
"While what we are seeing right now, our Patriach is looking dying," Xia Ning said as she stared sinisterly at Xianlun's eyes.
"What they say, there's a point too."
"Although the blood coming out of Patriach's mouth was black blood that contained poison, it could still kill the patriach."
"I didn't bring blood-boosting pills. If this continues, the patriach will bleed to death."
"I didn't know that the result would be like this, did prince Xiao Tian trick me?"
"He said that the pill was enough, I trusted him too much to forget to concoct the blood-boosting pill."
"I completely forgot that he was a vile assassin who wiped out the existence of master Xian Yun. Why would I be this stupid, just because I was taught how to concoct a level five pill?" xianlun thought as he clenched his hands together.
"Why do you suddenly look depressed?"
"Stop cornering elder Xianlun!"
"If he intended to kill the patriach, he had done so from the very beginning. After all, without giving any pathriach deadly drugs, patriach will still lose his life if not treated immediately. Isn't that what you said before?"
"So stop cornering Xianlun!"
"And be aware!"
"You can't do anything to help the patriach, can you?" elder Zhou asked as he stared intently at Xiang Ying and Xia Ning's eyes.
Hearing Elder Zhou's words, Xiang Ying and Xia Ning turned their faces away and said, "Curtain,"
"Patriach kept on spitting out black blood. How'this?" xianlun thought with wide eyes.
"Don't blame yourself, I know you've tried your best" Elder Zhou said as he patted Xianlun's shoulder with a sad look. He walked past Xianlun holding back tears as he did not want to cry in front of Xianlun and the others.
When Elder Zhao was walking past Xianlun, he stopped his steps from hearing the voice of patriach Bai. The voice he heard was,
"Where are you going, Elder Zhou?"
"Isn't your main duty as my right hand man to protect myself?"
"How can you protect me if you stay away?" said patriach Bai who had just recovered from his critical period. He got up from his bed, and his current position was sitting on a mattress with his legs straightened. His face was facing Elder Zhao's back, and black blood had already stopped coming out of his mouth. His face looked so fit like nothing had ever happened before.
The color of the eyes and all the veins and muscles that were tense before, is now completely back to normal. All of that was reflected in Elder Zhao's eyes, just as he looked back.
"Mr .. patriach?" said Elder Zhao with wide eyes. Upon seeing that patriach Bai had improved, elder Zhao could not hold back his tears anymore. With tears flowing without her noticing, she again said,
"Thank God,"
"Thank God," Elder Zhao said as he covered the face with his right palm.
"Thank God, it turns out the patriach can still be saved."
"I'm sorry to doubt you, master," Xianlun thought with a tear-filled face.
"Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that the blood that came out of Patriach's mouth was a lot. But why does the patriach seem to have no shortage of blood?" xia Ning thought with wide eyes.
"What kind of pill did Xianlun give you?" thought Xiang Ying with wide eyes.
#The storm spiked
#Main building of fighter branch
Xiao Tian was in the main building of the fighter branch, precisely in the central room which was designed like a battle arena. The atmosphere there was completely empty, as the disciples were currently in their respective buildings.
"It's really lonely,"
"Are you sure that you feel the qi energy of the old man sealing all my relics, around here?" xiao Tian asked as he looked at the Lightning God.
"I'm very sure," said the Lightning God as he stared intently at Xiao Tian's eyes.
"Areally who is that old man?"
"Could he be one of the elders here?"
"If it is true, why is this sect only recognized as a fourth-rate sect," Xiao Tian said with a frown.
"This place is so empty, but I feel that there's someone watching us from afar. Could it be the old man you're looking for?" said Sunlong while frowning.
While glancing to the right and to the left, Xiao Tian, Sunlong and the Lightning God were surprised not to play because someone suddenly just patted Xiao Tian on the back while saying,
"Searching?"
Xiao Tian immediately turned around, Sunlong immediately turned to the source of the voice. But there's nobody there.
"Where'd he go?" said Xiao Tian while frowning.
"I didn't feel the air of his existence at all, the old man was really able to hide it well. Then why can I feel it when I'm still outside the building?"
"Don't tell me that he was fishing for us on purpose, could it be that he could see me too?" thought the God of lightning with a confused look.
"I know you're still here, get out there and quickly get your damned mark off my shoulder!" yelled Xiao Tian while looking in all directions.
"Hahahahah, I will get rid of him as long as you want to become my disciple" said the old man in a voice that echoed throughout the room.
"Show yourself!"
"Stop hiding like a coward!" shouted Xiao Tian while looking up at the sky.
"I will show myself after you win the battle tournament of the four great sects in this land. And will also get rid of my cursed mark if you manage to win the alchemist tournament of the four great sects," said the old man in a voice that echoed throughout the entire contents of the room.
"Actually, what is your relationship with this sect?"
"Why did you tell me to represent this sect to win the tournament?" xiao Tian asked as he looked up at the sky.
"That's none of your business" the mysterious old man said with a voice echoing throughout the room.
"She's gone, I don't feel that much wastage anymore" said Sunlong with a breathless naoas.
"Why are you the only one who still feels the presence of the old man?" asked the God of lightning while gazing towards Sunlong.
"Remember, you have exhausted your qi energy and soul power. It's only natural that you can't feel the air of his existence. Therefore I ask you to rest in the alchemist building first. Just continue the search until tomorrow" said Sunlong, staring at the God of lightning.
"Huft, I hate to say it. But what you say is true" said the God of lightning with a sigh.
