As soon as Wang Ming got close, a text popped up on his retina, and he raised an eyebrow as he read it.
[True Elental Physique has been activated due to an attack from a parasite]
’Parasite?’ Wang Ming raised an eyebrow upon seeing this and asked the system, ’System, explain.’
[System ssage: Host, the person in front of you has a venomous parasite inside his body which has been sucking his life force and spiritual energy while simultaneously poisoning him from the inside.]
Wang Ming felt a chill run down his spine and felt a bit creeped out thinking about an insect living inside a person. Just thinking about it made his skin crawl.
’System, is there a way I can heal him?’ Wang Ming asked the system curiously.
[System ssage: As the host has the True Elental Physique, the host can feed a few drops of his blood to a person and neutralize all status effects.]
"Oh, my physique has such an effect?" Wang Ming’s eyes lit up as he read the text.
Wang Ming looked closely and muttered, "Seems like the poison is also aging him faster."
Logically, the emperor should be around fifty or sixty years old, and not to ntion a cultivator should look like soone in their late twenties at most, but the person on the bed looked withered, with a wax-yellow complexion, grizzled white hair, and a lifeless expression. He looked like an eighty-year-old elder long past his pri.
"Who is it?" Wang Ming’s eyes widened when he heard the emperor speak.
"Huh, I thought you could barely move or speak," Wu Jing, who was standing beside Tang Nian, said.
"He can, but only for an hour at most," Tang Nian replied.
"Father!" Seeing how bad her father looked, Tang Ning’s heart ached. She hurriedly rushed toward the bed and asked worriedly.
"Cough, you two are here. Who is he?" the Patriarch asked, pointing at Wang Ming. He recognized Min Li and Wu Jing and gave them a polite nod.
"Um, this is Wang Ming. He is very talented, and we asked for his help to see if he could identify your sickness." Tang Ning introduced Wang Ming to her father.
"Oh?" The Patriarch looked Wang Ming up and down and was not optimistic.
"Ah, Wang Ming. Have you identified my father’s sickness?" Tang Ning asked hopefully.
"I have," Wang Ming said.
"Ah? R-Really?!" Tang Ning and Tang Nian’s faces bead with joy, while the Patriarch’s eyes widened before he quickly regained his composure.
Even the top healer couldn’t do anything, so it was impossible for anyone else in Golden Leaf City to be able to treat him... So he didn’t want to get too hopeful and decided to hear what Wang Ming had to say first.
"Your father is not sick at all... He’s not afflicted by so disease or anything like that... Rather, he’s quite healthy if it weren’t for the parasite inside his body," Wang Ming said calmly.
"Ah? A parasite?" Tang Ning asked in confusion, and the family head’s eyebrows also furrowed in confusion.
"I sensed another life within your body... This kind of thing is usually only possible with won since that ans they’re harboring another life within their body; in other words, when they’re pregnant... But since you’re obviously a man, that kind of thing is impossible to happen. And the life signal is located near your heart instead of your stomach." Out of nowhere, Wang Ming stabbed his finger into the location where the Patriarch’s heart was located.
"Father!!!" Tang Ning scread in terror, thinking that Wang Ming had just stabbed her father.
Although Wang Ming stabbed his finger into his chest, it didn’t bleed at all, and if one looked closely, it was as if his finger had just phased through his chest without making a single scratch or wound.
Then he brought out his finger, and right under the skin near the heart, sothing started to wiggle.
"Ah!!!"
Tang Ning was so frightened that she cried out in fear. Her rosy face lost all its color. Even the Patriarch was struck dumb as his entire body stiffened... The other girls also felt disgusted by the sight of this parasitic worm inside his body.
"Our... Our body actually has sothing like that inside it! Can you bring it out?" The Patriarch seed as if he had already cald down, but his stiff body showed that he was still in the frightened and disgusted state he had been in before.
"Hmm... you need to drink a few drops of my blood," Wang Ming said casually, and the Patriarch, who heard this, had his eyebrows twitch.
"What? You want to consu your blood?" the Patriarch asked, annoyed. How could soone dignified consu soone else’s blood? If it were the blood of a divine beast, he might have agreed, but the blood of a fellow human disgusted him.
He took a deep breath and asked, "Isn’t there any other way?"
"Nope. You can refuse, but don’t bla if you die within a month," Wang Ming said casually.
"What? He will die in a month?" Tang Ning cried out in fear, and even the clan head felt a bit nervous as he asked, "Is it true?"
"Do I have anything to gain by lying? I ca here at their request. If not, I would not have co," Wang Ming said casually. Hearing his words, the wariness of the Patriarch lessened a bit.
"Fine," he said as he held Wang Ming’s finger and tried to bring it to his mouth, which Wang Ming hurriedly pulled away.
"Damn, you don’t need to suck the blood out of my finger... this is too gay, and I don’t let anyone other than females touch ," Wang Ming said with disgust.
The Patriarch almost coughed up a mouthful of blood in anger and embarrassnt, and the judgntal looks from the girls in the room made him want to bury himself in the ground.
