Chapter 1576: Chapter 1577: Treating the Sick and Saving Lives
"Pill Master, I am not afraid, no matter how much time it takes, I am not afraid. As long as these ugly patterns can be removed, I am willing to wait for however long it takes!"
Ye Luo nodded, a patient willing to cooperate is always a good thing for any doctor.
"However, you need to be mentally prepared. I’m afraid the poison will become increasingly difficult to remove as time goes on, and there will be some pain involved. Let me be honest with you, you are lucky to have met me, because if these patterns are not removed in time, I’m afraid you will die within three years."
Death within three years!
The ugly girl’s face changed; she had always been troubled by how ugly the patterns were, and never imagined that they could have the power to be life-threatening!
The ugly girl wanted to say something, but Ye Luo continued, "You don’t need to worry excessively. Rest assured, I will treat you. In addition, I must congratulate you because once these patterns are completely removed, you will gain a special constitution. Your cultivation level will have a tremendous advantage over ordinary people. However, I cannot yet determine what special constitution you have, so it’s hard to say how much of a boost it will provide!"
Both the ugly girl and Li Muxin were slightly stunned; such a good thing actually exists!
A special constitution is something everyone desires but is very rare, so many can only dream of it. But who would have thought the ugly girl might have a chance to possess it!
"Pill Master, Pill Master, as long as you can cure Sister Yan, whatever request you have, I will fulfill it. You must cure Sister Yan, please!"
Li Muxin spoke excitedly, not caring about anything else at the moment.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with what she said, but Ye Luo never really liked her from the beginning, so he turned his head, giving her a sidelong glance, and said directly, "Oh, really? Then please, leave right now!"
Li Muxin blinked, obviously not comprehending!
However, seeing Ye Luo paying no attention to her and continuing to converse with the ugly girl, Li Muxin’s expression changed dramatically!
The noble Princess of the Great Tang Empire!
The long-admired Princess by many, yet someone was actually rejecting her!
Ye Luo’s sidelong glance, showing clear disdain in his eyes!
Li Muxin’s expression changed several times, and soon after, tears welled up, and she quickly rushed out. Perhaps only she knew the grievance she felt at that moment!
The ugly girl looked at Ye Luo, immensely perplexed because she knew Li Muxin’s identity.
Weren’t all the men who came to this Elegant Bamboo Pavilion here for the long Princess? Yet now, an unusual person appears, who doesn’t care about the long Princess?
Subconsciously, the ugly girl became interested in Ye Luo!
Perhaps because of her extreme ugliness since childhood, the ugly girl was more mature than others and knew more!
She could see that Ye Luo truly did not care about Li Muxin because from beginning to end, Ye Luo only glanced at her twice, one of which was a sidelong look!
Throughout the whole time, Ye Luo’s attention was on her, so the ugly girl could be sure that Ye Luo wasn’t doing it deliberately to catch Li Muxin’s attention!
Besides, the ability to remove a piece of the ugly girl’s pattern has already proven Ye Luo’s genuine skills, so naturally, it’s not possible that Ye Luo was just putting on a show!
Ye Luo chatted with the ugly girl, hoping to find the cause of the illness. This is a habit of doctors—when encountering uncertain factors, they usually inquire further because that’s the only way to prescribe the right remedy.
But the ugly girl’s thoughts were not on this but rather intrigued by Ye Luo.
"Sir, my name is Chen Siqi. May I know how to address you?"
"Just call me Ye Luo, uh, or you can also call me by my real name, Wen Yu!"
Perhaps due to being overly focused, Ye Luo unwittingly mentioned his real name. Fortunately, since Chen Siqi had little contact with the outside world for a long time, she actually did not know about the Ninth Prince Ye Luo!
Luckily, there were no slip-ups. Seeing that Chen Siqi showed no reaction, Ye Luo heaved a sigh of relief before continuing his inquiry, "Based on my observation, the strange poison in your body must have been deliberately planted to take your life. It’s just that because of your special constitution, you’ve resisted until now. Since you were poisoned when you were just over a year old, the target was likely not you personally, but your family or your parents. Think about it, did your parents or family have any enemies?"
Chen Siqi responded immediately, "I don’t know because I’ve been special since I was little, so my father always invited famous teachers to teach me at home. My attic is separately built, and as for family matters, father never mentioned them to me, nor did I ask much. Regarding my mother, it’s said she died of illness during my birth for certain reasons.
By the way, sir, why did you come to the Elegant Bamboo Pavilion? Was it also because of the Long Princess Hall?"
Mother died of illness? Ye Luo slightly frowned, but Chen Siqi’s words didn’t seem to contain any useful clues: "Yes, naturally because of the Long Princess; I am a friend of the Long Princess, so I was invited. By the way, I need to prepare some elixirs. Your poison can’t just be removed with external force alone. I’ll try to make some elixirs and find a suitable cultivation technique to help you recover as quickly as possible!"
A friend of the Long Princess? The ugly girl almost burst into laughter; didn’t this guy just drive the Long Princess away? How did they become friends?
Chen Siqi naturally wouldn’t point this out and simply nodded, "Thank you, sir. If it weren’t for the chance meeting with you today, I might not have known how I’d die in three years."
"Alright, let’s exchange bracelet contact info. I’ll come to find you when the elixirs are ready. For now, get some good rest; I haven’t discovered anything requiring attention about your poison, so you don’t need to worry too much. Just remember to avoid using spiritual power as much as possible."
After chatting a bit more, Ye Luo left the tent.
Once Ye Luo was gone, Li Muxin reentered the tent. Hearing Chen Siqi recount Ye Luo’s words, Li Muxin was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected this guy to claim he was her friend!
Even though the banquet was hosted by Li Muxin, in fact, those who attended weren’t solely invited by Li Muxin.
Given Li Muxin’s special status, even when inviting people, it’s not entirely up to her own wishes. Some individuals, whom Li Muxin might not care about, still had to be invited.
