Chapter 322 Ch 322: Red Moon Empress's Illness (1)
The guards brought everyone to a Lotus Garden.
This was a vast lake, spanning over 800 meters in every direction. The lake was adorned with beautiful lotus flowers, and in the center of it stood an exquisite bamboo structure open on all four sides. The ceiling was supported by beautifully carved bamboo pillars.
Colorful curtains adorned the entire structure. At one end, there was a spacious and luxurious bed, surrounded by two maids and a beautiful lady dressed in an exquisite robe.
Even from afar, the moment Ye Xiao saw this lady, he recognized her.
"Ning Xiang!"
Yes, she was Ning Xiang.
However, she was not the Red Moon Empress. The Red Moon Empress was lying on the bed.
"Since Ning Xiang is there, it means Qin Xingling is the Red Moon Empress." Ye Xiao muttered in his heart as a smile appeared on his face.
These two have grown up too much compared to the last time he saw them. They have become unparalleled beauties.
The cold aura surrounding Ning Xiang also did not change. In fact, it had increased even more. As for Qin Xingling, she was born with the blessing of Mystic Falls. She could see through a person's soul. She could tell whether a person's soul is pure or not. She could detect people's emotions and whether they are having good or bad thoughts just from the fluctuation of their souls.
Ye Xiao still remembered that Qin Xingling used to be a cheerful girl who liked to talk continuously.
Very soon, everyone arrived in front of the luxurious bed.
Lying on the bed was a beautiful woman with a pale face. Her breathing was very weak, and her face looked slightly withered. It was as if she was losing her life essence little by little with each passing minute.
This woman was wearing a luxurious dragon robe, and there was a faint energy fluctuation coming from it. Obviously, it was not an ordinary robe but a treasure, a Top Grade Celestial Spirit-ranked Treasure at that.
Obviously, this beautiful woman was the Red Moon Empress.
And yes, she was Qin Xingling.
"It really is her!" Ye Xiao muttered in his heart silently after confirming that Qin Xingling was indeed the Red Moon Empress.
"Are they in disguise?"
Ye Xiao could not help but mutter.
As far as he remembered, although they looked similar to humans, these two beautiful women were not from the human race. They were from the Primordial Mystic Race. He clearly remembered that they had strange patterns all over their bodies. And those patterns did not make them look ugly, instead, they added another level of charm to their bodies, making them look stunningly pretty.
Most importantly, they both had a pair of golden eyes.
However, Qin Xingling and Ning Xiang in front of him looked just like any other human. They had no extra features that made them look different from humans.
Those strange patterns were absent on their bodies, and even their golden eyes had turned black.
Ye Xiao had noticed this the instant he saw Ning Xiang, however, he did not think much.
But now that Qin Xingling was the same, he could not help but think that something must be it.
His eyes started glowing with a faint green light. Ye Xiao was now able to directly look at the essence of Qin Xingling's problem. At the same time, these eyes helped him see through their disguise as well.
"So that's how it is!"
After a while, Ye Xiao deactivated the Eyes of Insight and silently nodded his head.
As he had expected, they were indeed in disguise. They were using an extremely profound technique to hide their distinctive features.
At the same time, he also saw through Qin Xingling's illness.
"A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to pay my respects to Your Majesty. I didn't expect that Your Majesty would become like this today." Fang Shen said with a sigh. Regret could be felt from his voice.
"It is you, Fang Shan!"
When Ning Xiang saw it was Fang Shan, she quickly said, "Fang Shen, please save her."
Fang Shen nodded and looked at Qin Xingling. For a moment, his heart skipped a bit the instant his gaze fell on her.
In order to maintain his image as a Pill Emperor he coughed a little and started observing Red Moon Empress, wanting to see through her illness.
After a while, Fang Shen said with a frown, "It is much more troublesome than I thought, but it is not impossible to treat him."
Ning Xiang was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Does Master Fang Shen have any good ideas?"
Fang Shen nodded confidently. He said, "Her Majesty has overcultivated a Cultivation Method that does not suit her, which caused foreign energy to invade her body and is even affecting her soul. This has continued for a long period of time and that led to the current result. All I need to do is give her a pill that could force that foreign energy out of her body. At that time, Her Majesty's illness will naturally be resolved."
Unlike what he had expected, Ning Xiang was not overjoyed. Instead, she frowned.
After hesitating a while, she silently nodded her head.
On the other hand, Ye Xiao shook his head but did not say anything.
"This is the list. You must gather the ingredients mentioned in this list so that I can refine that pill as soon as possible." Fang Shen picked up the brush and wrote down a list of ingredients in a few blinks.
"As expected of Fang Shen. He is worthy of being a Pill Emperor. He really lives up to his reputation."
"We are ashamed. We were planning to give it a try here, but we didn't expect that you would be able to tell the condition with just a glance, Master Fang Shen."
A few Pill Refiner immediately started licking Fang Shen's boots.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and grab the list. Gather the ingredients as soon as possible!" A Pill Refiner, who had previously thought that Ye Xiao was an attendant arranged by the Imperial Family to assist them, suddenly pointed at Ye Xiao and scolded loudly.
Obviously, because they could not feel an ounce of aura on Ye Xiao's body, everyone habitually treated Ye Xiao as a servant in the palace.
Ye Xiao did not get angry. Instead, he took the list and carefully examined it.
"What? Could it be that you don't understand and still need me to explain it to you?" One of the Pill Refiners said impatiently when he saw Ye Xiao looking at the list of ingredients instead of running to gather these ingredients.
The rest of the Pill Refiners also stared at Ye Xiao angrily.
After all, this matter concerns the Red Moon Empress. Treating her was not something that could be messed with. They had to race against time.
How could this attendant not understand this little principle?
"It is him!"
On the other hand, when Ning Xiang followed everyone's gaze and looked at Ye Xiao, she was stunned. She immediately recognized Ye Xiao.
Although, compared to the past, Ye Xiao has grown a lot. In fact, she also could not feel even an ounce of aura from Ye Xiao's body, but her guts were telling her to be careful of Ye Xiao, for he could threaten her life easily.
After calming down, she curiously observed everyone. In a short few seconds, she understood that people here must have misunderstood Ye Xiao.
However, she did not step forward to help Ye Xiao immediately. She wanted to see what Ye Xiao would do in this situation.
Ye Xiao took a look at the ingredients listed by Fang Shen and suddenly put it down. Then he looked at Fang Shen deeply and asked emotionlessly, "Are you sure that she fell ill because of the invasion of foreign energy?"
Fang Shen frowned. He did not immediately answer when he saw that it was a man asking a question.
He didn't answer, but it didn't mean that the group of Pill Refiners didn't know how to answer.
"What the hell are you doing? What are you anyway? Just an attendant. Just follow Master Fang Shen's list and brighten all the ingredients here. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
One of the Pill Refiner scolded Ye Xiao immediately. The rest of the Pill Refiner also started to scold Ye Xiao loudly following the first Pill Refiner.
Now that Ye Xiao had offended Fang Shen by questioning him, these Pill Refiners seemed to have seen an opportunity to get in Fang Shen's good looks.
They did not hesitate to put Ye Xiao lower than their shoes in order to make a connection with a reputed Pill Emperor.
Ye Xiao looked at these Pill Refiners and shook his head. He said coldly, "She is clearly poisoned, and that poison is not some foreign energy or an ordinary poison but a Soul Poison. It is a poison that slowly corrode one's soul."
