Capítulo 45: Chapter: 43
"This is the Soul Devouring Life Binding Parasite!"
Hand crossed over his chest, Yun Che explained to everyone about the particular parasite within Cang Wanhe's body.
At the same time, he was trying to come up with a solution to solve it.
Obviously, with his maxed Miracle of Life, he could think of dozens of methods to do it, but most were inaccessible on this star.
And those that were, were inaccessible to the people present.
He looked at the system and read through his skills before sighing.
There was not a single skill present that could help him deal with this parasite!
In fact, dealing with the parasite was not hard; the problem was the connection the parasite had with Cang Wanhe.
If the parasite is killed, Cang Wanhe will also die!
'It's either that flower or the Profound Handle, I have neither of them!'
To awaken the Profound Handle normally, he needed to enter Sky Profound Realm first.
Otherwise, someone who had their Profound Handle already awakened can awaken his Profound Handle forcefully.
For that, he could only think of his blood-related grandfather who was sealed within Sword Villa.
He looked at the map in front of him and sighed once again.
Despite using the map, he could only find one Burning Soul Flower in the whole Blue Wind Empire!
If this was not plot then what it was? In the end, he decided to wait till his Profound Handle was awakened.
Only then can he save his father-in-law.
"Brother Yun, is there no way to save Father?" Yun Che softly smiled, seeing the worried expression of Cang Yue.
He gently caressed her cheeks to lower her worry and sighed. "There is, but quite difficult."
"Just tell me, Brother Yun, I'll try my best to get whatever ingredients you might need!"
"Yue'er is right." Cang Wanhe now fully believed in Yun Che's medical skills and said seriously. "As long as it is within our power, we will definitely get whatever ingredients required to save our life and to remove this disgusting parasite."
"Well, if you can find me a single Burning Soul Flower, then I can save father-in-law's life."
He didn't talk about the Profound Handle as there was no need for them to know about it.
He just needed to wait patiently. Once it awakened, he could use it to save his life.
He wasn't worried that something might happen to Cang Wanhe during it.
With an Emperor Profound Realm cultivator protecting him, only the Four Major Sects could endanger his life directly.
But that would cause a Sect War, and no one wanted that.
{Xiu, order our people to search for this Burning Soul Flower! Price doesn't matter. As long as they can find one, they will be heavily rewarded for it.}
Cang Wanhe sent a soul transmission to his guard, who nodded in affirmation. He also had a serious expression on his face. He decided to get his hands on the Burning Soul Flower as soon as possible!
"Since I am done with what I have come to do, I'll take my leave then." Suddenly, Yun Che said. "Take care of yourself, father-in-law."
Though still dissatisfied with how Yun Che called him, Cang Wanhe could only force a smile on his face, seeing the gaze of his daughter.
Yun Che had helped him find the cause of his deteriorating health that no one could, and even gave him the solution for it.
If he didn't feel appreciated, wouldn't that make him ungrateful? He could only force a smile and nod, watching Yun Che leave the room with everyone else.
Once he was the only one left in the room, his face suddenly turned ugly. He wasn't stupid. Just from this small find of the parasite, there was no way it appeared inside his body out of thin air.
Obviously, someone had schemed against him, the Emperor of the Blue Wind Empire!
"Send people to keep a close eye on Gu Qiuhong. If he dares to leave the empire, capture and bring him back to us!"
He still remembered the day when Qiuhong had opened his chest to get some blood in the hope of curing him of the cold poison.
Other than him, no one had ever operated on him.
All this pointed out that it was Gu Qiuhong who had poisoned him with this parasite!
This made Cang Wanhe's blood boil with intense anger.
If he could, he wanted to execute Qiuhong right away.
But that would result in more problems than anything else.
Qiuhong was celebrated as the medical saint of the empire and has helped many people with his medical pills and expertise.
Obviously, the Four Major Sects were included in it. If he made a move against Qiuhong without any solid proof, not only would that break all forms of connections the royal family had with him, but the Four Major Sects might even pull their swords against him.
This only resulted in the increase in his anger.
He was the emperor! Yet, he couldn't punish a mere civilian without any proof! Hateful!
'Just you wait! Once we are healed completely, the first head to be rolled will be yours!' Cang Wanhe swore internally, taking deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.
…
..
.
After leaving the royal chambers, the first thing Yun Che did was warn Cang Yue.
"Be aware of Gu Qiuhong. That old monkey, he's probably the one who poisoned your father."
Cang Yue nodded seriously.
She thought she would make sure to assign some other people to take care of her father and only let Qiuhong near her father when she was present beside him.
"Ah, also. Come to my room tonight."
"... So bold."
Yun Che rolled his eyes seeing her bashful expression.
"I will open your profound entrances tonight."
"You can do that?" Cang Yue asked, surprised, though that was just her hiding the embarrassment behind. She had thought that Brother Yun was asking for something else, but it was something else instead.
"My dear Yue'er, did you already forget that I'm a medical saint? Of course, I can do something so small."
Cang Yue suddenly couldn't hold her embarrassment any longer.
Just then, two people appeared in front of them.
Both of them seemed to be going towards the royal chambers, so it was normal that they met each other on the way.
"Princess Cang Yue." The person to see her clasped his hand and gave the courtesy bow. "It's been a while."
Cang Yue's eyes widened in surprise. She exclaimed.
"Brother Ling, why are you here?"
Ling Yun smiled softly before he looked towards the person beside him, his action halting.
The person next to him obviously looked younger than him.
Right now, his eyes were shining as he looked at Cang Yue. Obviously, he was enchanted by Cang Yue's beauty!
"Jie'er, behave." With a slight frown, Ling Yun tugged his little brother.
With an embarrassing smile, he looked towards Cang Yue who just shook her head, not blaming him.
Finding Yun Che standing beside Cang Yue, Ling Yun looked towards him curiously, making Yun Che smile.
Catching his gaze, Cang Yue hurriedly introduced Yun Che.
"He is Brother Yun Che…" Suddenly, she was lost for words. She didn't know what to say anymore. Should she say he is a disciple of Profound Palace, but then what was he doing in the royal palace? Or should she say he is the medical saint who came to check her father, but that sounded absurd that even she wouldn't have believed it if she was in Ling Yun's position.
"Hello, I'm her future husband. Feel free to call me Prince Yun Che."
"..."
Seeing their dumbfounded expression and Cang Yue's silent gaze, Yun Che held her hand and said with a frown.
"What? Do you want to hide it till we are married? Isn't it better to let everyone know in advance to remove all sorts of misunderstandings from arising? You are beautiful, and many people will have your idea when meeting you." He looked towards Ling Jie, causing an awkward expression to appear on Ling Yun's face. "It's better to remove the competition before it even starts."
"Y-y-y-y-you actually dare to take my Princess Sis's hand! How are you fit for Princess Sis; you're so weak, and you're not even as good-looking as me… I want to fight you! To take back my Princess Sis."
Yun Che's brow twitched when Ling Jie called him weak.
Not only that, he also called him ugly. If not for his strength, Yun Che might really slap him across the palace.
"Well, bad news midget. Your Princess Sis is already taken. Better luck next time," Yun Che boringly said, waving his hand towards Ling Jie as if blowing a bug away. This, of course, dissatisfied Ling Yun and Ling Jie.
They were from the Heavenly Sword Villa, the strongest sect in the Empire!
Even the King himself never acted disrespectfully towards them, so seeing Yun Che doing it, of course, there was some anger in their eyes.
"You—! Today, I must defeat you and take my Princess Sis back from you!" Ling Jie shouted and took his sword out, ready to fight Yun Che till death.
This caused Yun Che's eyes to narrow.
Not only did Ling Yun not stop his little brother, he turned a blind eye when Ling Jie took his sword out.
Obviously, he was looking forward to such development.
'Want to teach me a lesson because I insulted your brother? Humph! Let's see…'
"Little Jie, do you really think if you defeat me Yue'er will go with you?"
"W-what do you mean?!" Ling Jie was shocked. Obviously, he thought that Yun Che was an evil person and by defeating him, Cang Yue would come to him.
"Tsk, kids." Yun Che clicked his tongue and placed his hand over Ling Jie's shoulder. "Listen, a real man would never look at the woman who is already taken with lustful eyes. That's not a man, it's a leech, pervert! A real man will put the happiness of his loved one first before thinking about their feelings! You already know your feelings, but have you ever asked about Cang Yue's feelings? Can you still be called a real man!?"
Ling Jie was stunned. He felt what Yun Che said made a lot of sense.
Suddenly, a guilty expression appeared on his face.
Can he still be called a man now that he was trying to forcefully take Cang Yue, without knowing about her feelings?
A melancholy expression appeared on his face.
'How can I be so stupid!?'
Yun Che nodded his head and patted Ling Jie's shoulder with a smile.
"Well, it's good that you still have the consciousness to think about it.
That proves that you haven't fallen yet. As long as you keep such a clear heart, I'm sure you will find someone you like in the future."
Turning to look towards Cang Yue, Yun Che added, "I'll wait for you tonight."
In front of the baffled expressions of everyone, Yun Che turned around and left the palace.
Ling Yun, Ling Jie, and Cang Yue could only stand speechlessly, not knowing what to say anymore.
