Chapter 24: Chapter 24: “Poison (2)”

Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Jun Wu Xie started to examine his legs as she applied pressure over a few areas. "Are you not able to feel anything at all?"

"Occasionally a few chills, but not very obvious." He replied.

She continued to examine his legs and finally after some time she looked up and asked: "Uncle, do you trust me?" She asked calmly.

"Of course!" He smiled warmly at her.

Jun Wu Xie looked around her surroundings and her gaze landed on the lotus pond, as her eyes flashed a trace of excitement.

"These lotus flowers are so beautiful, take for instance this lotus here in full bloom. Hmmm… I wonder if Uncle likes to eat lotus seeds?" She casually asked.

Jun Qing gave a quick thought and replied: "I do eat them occasionally."

"I just picked some yesterday and thought they tasted really good! Would you like to try some as well?" She asked again in a casual tone.

"Of course I would, it's been handpicked by you." He happily agreed. His own little niece was now so sensible. If it was before, even if she ever picked any lotus seeds, the first person she would give it to would be Mo Xuan Fei!

"Uncle, open your mouth," she added.

Jun Qing was surprised although he didn't know what she was up to but as a doting Uncle, all he wanted was for his niece to be happy so he listened to her and obediently opened his mouth.

As soon as he did that, Jun Wu Xie immediately flicked the lotus seed into his mouth and before he could even react, she closed his mouth and tilted his head up forcing him to swallow it down.

"...…." From her 'gentle feeding" method, he almost choked out tears.

Just when he thought she was finally getting more sensible, the way she did things was still a little….rough.

Jun Wu Xie can't be blamed for crude method of feeding medicine. It's just that it was never in her genes to begin with. With regards to patients who refused to eat medications, she always had a single thought- that was to have the patient eat it and her method was crude but effective without room for resistance.

"Isn't it delicious?" She inquired.

Jun Qing looked at her with a dumbfounded expression. She simply shoved it down his throat! When did he get the luxury to taste it?

"Mmmm.... Delicious." He coaxed her.

"Then I shall leave first." After doing what she came for, she whizzed away back to her courtyard.

Jun Qing stared at her back as left, feeling a little baffled. This little girl came all the way here and after talking so much, it was merely to feed him a lotus seed?

"Master's body still has some remnants of poison, as the lotus seed is of cooling nature, would you like me to brew a bowl of ginger soup to warm you up?" The 'servant' who had been standing behind him all this while broke the silence. If one looked closely, this man had a tall and robust stature, with his stoic expression, one would think he resembled nothing like a servant.

Jun Qing raised his hands, "There's no need to kick up a big fuss over a single lotus seed. I'm not that weak."

That man no longer pursued on and said his thoughts out loud. "Little Miss seems a little different lately."

Ever since Jun Qing was injured, he had been tending to him for over a decade and had watched Jun Wu Xie grow up. He never had a good impression of her due to her lofty and arrogant nature hence he did not even bother to greet her when he saw her.

"You think so too?" Jun Qing's lips curved upwards as he gave a deep thought. With a trace of nostalgia, he absentmindedly said, "Seeing her now somewhat reminds me of Brother."

"Please do not jest, some things cannot be compared." That man frowned as he sternly replied, he didn't seem to agree with the words of Jun Qing.


Chapter 25: Poison (3)

Jun Qing immediately lost his smile and shook his head. "Tsk. The only person who can tolerate this temper of yours is only Brother, do not forget, that child is…she is the child of the man whom you swore your fealty to. If one day Father and I are no longer around,she will be in your….."

Before he could finish his sentence, an uncomfortable itch was felt as if someone was sawing his bones with a blunt knife and he hunched over as this feeling started to spread to every single bone in his body.

"Master!" The man looked worriedly at the pale faced Jun Qing.

Jun Qing's poison from that time had yet to be fully purged and the residual toxicity had penetrated deep into the bone marrow, even the famed Yun Qing Clan's Sovereign had failed to neutralise it. Over the years, Jun Qing had been very cautious right down to his diet. He was fine just a moment ago and was still rebuking him, why did he suddenly…?

He suddenly thought of something.

"That lotus seed? But how could it be?"

No matter how much he disliked Jun Wu Xie, the blood of the Jun family still flowed within her, that's why when she had approached Jun Qing just now, he did not have any apprehension towards her. How could it have been her?

Jun Qing clenched his teeth tightly as he felt the itch slowly became an indescribable pain. It was as if they were slowly being crushed and the overwhelming pain swept over him as he broke out in cold sweat.

As the man watched Jun Qing's condition worsen by each passing moment, he quickly lifted Jun Qing up with his wheelchair and rushed back to the room.

All these was not relayed to Jun Wu Xue. She was cooped up in her pharmacy researching. She had not given it a second thought as she had personally gone through the bone cleansing process and although it was not the most comfortable experience, it was still manageable in her opinion.

However, what she did not know was that the cleansing of a regular human bone and one that had been poisoned had a totally different effect.

In a different courtyard, at this moment Jun Qing was suffering from an excruciating pain, as if a thousand knives were hacking away at his bones. An emergency summon for all the capable doctors of the State to quickly head over to Lin Palace to treat him.

However, all the doctors were helpless in their diagnosed as Jun Qing lay on his bed as his body temperature soared, as his body kept twitching and soon the sweat soaked through the sheets. The sweat expelled also carried a faint black smelly substance.

This scene scared the wits out of the group of doctors who knelt at the bedside quivering.

Jun Xian had received the news and rushed back to see his son lying on the bed, complexion as white as sheet. His condition did not look optimistic and it was as if he had one leg in the grave already.

Jun Xian broke out in cold sweat as he roared, "What the hell happened?!" A pair of bloodshot eyes was staring viciously at the doctors kneeling by the bed.

"Th..thi..this humble one…does not know how .. How his blood flow is in chaos and the poison in his bone marrow suddenly spread..spread to wh..whole body. Thi..this humble one really tried my best… Lin Wang please have mercy!" The group of doctors all cried for mercy as they all had the same diagnosis- Jun Qing did not have long to live!

This bolt of information almost made Jun Xian faint as he steadied himself.

Was his last son going to die?

No!

This can't be happening!

He immediately rushed over to the Royal Palace, intending to seek out Bai Yun Xian as she is Qing Yun Clan's Sovereign's disciple. To his dismay, Bai Yun Xian had refused audience with anyone saying that she was still frightened from the attack and was still recuperating.

He immediately stormed into the Grand Hall to seek an audience with the Emperor instead. His Majesty was placed in a difficult situation and as he did not have much of a choice, he could only watch on helplessly as he saw Jun Xian lead all the Imperial Doctors in the Royal Palace back to Lin Palace to assist with the treatment.
