C230 cause of injury (1/2)
In the deepest part of this small space was a unique courtyard.
Just as he stepped onto it, Qin Shaojie sensed countless powerful Spirit Qi sweeping past his body. The appearance of this aura made Qin Shaojie frown; they were actually existences on the level of Earth Origin Stage.
It seemed that Qin Mai had developed his own strength in the past few years. It had to be known that Earthly Yuan Stage expert was rarely seen in the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Not to mention the number of people, even if one appeared, it would be enough to receive absolute respect.
No wonder it was said that the development of the empire had already surpassed the Holy Flame Academy. At least in terms of the number of warriors at a high level, the Holy Flame Academy was at a disadvantage. As for the level of Three Spiritual Realms, although the Holy Flame Academy had done a good job in nurturing disciples, there was still a gap in terms of numbers and combat power between the two, as compared to the empires.
If not for the thousand years of history behind it, the current Holy Flame Academy might not even have the qualifications to protect himself. It seemed like everything was as he said, the current dynasty was no longer the dynasty of the past.
Accompanied by Qin Mai and Elder Ye, they entered this courtyard. Green water coiled around this place and the profound aura was abundant. It had to be said to be a very good place. However, in the deepest part of the courtyard, an ice jade bed that was emitting ice profound energy directly attracted Qin Shaojie's attention.
This cold jade bed was two times its length and one zhang wide. A cold air lingered over it. However, one could vaguely see a figure lying on the cold jade bed. If one was not mistaken, the person lying on it should be the Emperor.
”The Frost Jade Bed is forged from ten thousand year old profound ice, this is the only complete bed in the entire Great Yan Dynasty. He, who was inside, would give birth to a little bit of gentle Xuan Qi, which would be of great help to those who were severely ill. ”Besides that, Xuan Bing has a great control over the disease. At the very least, she can control the severity of the disease.”
”When I secretly transported royal father out, I also took this jade bed with me.”
Qin Mai walked up to the jade bed and pointed at a pale old man on top of the bed as he spoke with a deep voice.
His gaze swept across the old man's body. There was not a single trace of blood on his pale face. His breath was like the breath of a mosquito. If one was not careful, one would not be able to detect his breathing. His heart was like a tortoise's. Even a dying person would not be slower at such a pace.
This was the first time Qin Shaojie saw someone who used to be the most powerful and influential person in the Great Yan Dynasty. There was nothing special about him. He was completely unaffected by ordinary people. Even the clothes he wore were extremely simple and unadorned. There was no such thing as silk or satin, and everything else looked exactly the same.
He had long since heard that the current emperor was frugal and thought that he was low-key. Now, it seemed that it was true. It was no wonder that Great Yan Dynasty could improve so much in these few years while she was recuperating.
”Although his aura is currently uniform, the internal organs within his body seem to have suffered great damage. In this kind of destruction, even the profound veins were shattered. It was obvious that they suffered heavy injuries while alive. However, due to the fact that the life force of a person has greatly diminished due to old age, it would not be beneficial for the body to forcefully use all kinds of heavenly resources. On the contrary, it might cause the body to find it difficult to accept that an even worse situation has occurred. ”
Elder Ye, who was at the side, also told Qin Shaojie about his diagnosis. When he saw the emperor, he had always been trying to treat his injuries, but the endurance of his body made Elder Ye have no choice but to be cautious.
”Elder Ye, you don't have to worry, just say it directly.”
Qin Shaojie shook his head at this. If it was just for this reason, Elder Ye would not be so uncertain of it, he might even specially invite him here. As a tier four alchemist, although it was difficult under these circumstances, it wasn't to the point where he was helpless.
Furthermore, from the very first moment he saw the Sovereign King, Qin Shaojie had felt that this kind of appearance where there was no pain on the surface did not have the appearance of a heavily injured person.
Qin Shaojie's words also caused Qin Mai to be stunned, and he immediately looked at Elder Ye. Could it be that it was as Qin Shaojie had said, the matter was not that simple?
”I've tried many different methods, but during this process, I strangely discovered one thing. That is, the Emperor's body doesn't seem to belong to him.” It was the first time in so many years that he had seen such a situation, which was why he had put down all preparations in his hands and waited for Qin Shaojie to appear.
The emperor's body was extremely stiff. This kind of stiffness was not the inherent stiffness of a dying person. It was the stiffness of the muscles and bones beneath a soft skin. The weak life force within his body was also unable to feel any softness. The most important thing was that the body seemed to be under control, with a natural exclusiveness that made it impossible for one to do anything.
This was perhaps also the reason why there was no progress in the treatment he received in the Great Yan Dynasty. It was because this body rejected all actions by it. For such a state to appear while an old man was unconscious, it could be said to be extremely strange.
