Situ Yan, Mu Lengbing, and the others were consumed by anxious anticipation.
With each passing day, they could sense a further deterioration in Mu Jinse's condition, just as Bai Li Hongzhuang had predicted. They knew they had a maximum of three days before the situation became critical.
Everyone was restless, unable to bear the sight of Bai Li Hongzhuang's deep concern. Every minute and second seemed agonizingly long.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
Situ Yan had been keeping vigil by Mu Jinse's bedside when he noticed her body trembling. Her brows were tightly furrowed, a clear sign that she was enduring immense pain.
Realizing that the venomous parasite within Mu Jinse was about to strike, Situ Yan immediately instructed Mu Lengbing to inform Bai Li Hongzhuang.
Just as Mu Lengbing rushed to deliver the message, Bai Li Hongzhuang emerged from the room, holding a bowl of medicinal soup in her hand.
Emperor Beichen and Lan Yunxiao had been waiting outside Bai Li Hongzhuang's door for the past three days. When they saw her come out with the soup, they hastened to greet her.
"Yixuan, what is this?" Lan Yunxiao was the first to notice the bowl of soup in Bai Li Hongzhuang's hand and couldn't help but ask.
Bai Li Hongzhuang had been preparing an antidote these past few days, so it was possible that she had found a solution.
"Let grandmother try this bowl of medicinal soup. It might help suppress the parasite," Bai Li Hongzhuang said, causing everyone's spirits to lift. "Let's go to the bedroom immediately."
Just as Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others were preparing to leave, Mu Lengbing hurriedly ran over.
"Mother, has grandmother's condition worsened?"
Before Mu Lengbing could say anything, Bai Li Hongzhuang had already spoken.
"It's getting out of control."
"We can't waste any more time. Let's go!" Mu Lengbing exclaimed.
Seeing that Bai Li Hongzhuang had prepared the soup, everyone felt a wave of relief and hurriedly made their way to the bedroom.
When they arrived, Mu Jinse's body was already convulsing, and she was in extreme agony. Situ Yan had covered his face, afraid that Mu Jinse would see his appearance, but in her current state, Mu Jinse was oblivious to Situ Yan's presence.
The intense pain was akin to what she had experienced during previous episodes, leaving her in excruciating torment and wishing for death.
Mu Jinse couldn't help but writhe on the ground, blood spurting out uncontrollably. She felt her body burning, as if it would be consumed completely.
Witnessing Mu Jinse in such a state, everyone was shocked. The onset of the venomous parasite was truly terrifying.
Bai Li Hongzhuang swiftly approached and instructed Situ Yan and the others, "Hold grandmother's body and keep her from moving."
Situ Yan and the others immediately restrained Mu Jinse's body. Despite her intense struggles, the pain had already sapped her strength, and she couldn't move under their suppression.
Bai Li Hongzhuang swiftly administered acupuncture, attempting to alleviate Mu Jinse's suffering using this method.
The silver needles trembled incessantly, and beads of sweat formed on Bai Li Hongzhuang's pale face. This time, suppressing the pain proved to be even more challenging.
Finally, under Bai Li Hongzhuang's control, Mu Jinse's condition stabilized slightly.
Seizing the opportunity, Bai Li Hongzhuang promptly fed Mu Jinse the medicinal soup. It was their only hope, praying that her grandmother would recover.
