章 16: The Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix Submitting, Xiao Chen, the ‘Lead Character’, Departs for

In one of the bedchambers of the royal palace of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix...

The king of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was seen lying on the bed, surrounded by many alchemists and royal physicians.

None of them could treat the illness that the king was suffering from.

The king's illness had resulted from an injury caused by the Snake Demon of Jiusha, an ancient fiend of saint level. That was when he was out exploring a secret realm with the king of the Ancient Kingdom of Dragon.

The venom from the Snake Demon of Jiusha was something that even saints had problems resisting.

A demi-saint like the king of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was able to resist the venom even less.

With a sigh, one person said, "What should we do now? The princess made her way to the Jun family. Not only did she fail to get her hands on the Immortality Herb, but she also got humiliated in the process."
