With the support of Cultivation Power sustaining his body, coupled with his own elixir, Lin Yifan finally stabilized his frail physical state.
The Emperor of Tianng Country took the elixir from Lin Yifan's hand and swallowed it in front of everyone's eyes.
All were eagerly watching, hoping to see if it would have an effect.
As the elixir entered his stomach, the Emperor felt his heart pain lessen, and he quickly improved.
Moreover, his body beca increasingly robust, his breathing smoother, and his previously sickly disposition instantly turned vibrant.
The civil and military officials, royal family mbers, and palace concubines present were all amazed by the miraculous effect of this elixir.
Could it be that the Emperor was truly frad? Was it not a congenital heart disease after all?
"This... this..."
The Crown Prince was speechless, unable to believe this matter was real.
His father was a wise ruler, without mass killings. Who could hate him so deeply as to strike so viciously?
The Empress was uneasy, increasingly feeling that a scandal was about to break.
anwhile, Imperial Physician Zhao was even more terrified, his legs trembling, his face pale.
The Emperor's illness was cured; how could this be? Wasn't it said that this poison could only be redied by soone from a higher world?
He felt that either Lin Yifan had a remarkable background, or the dical books were deceitful.
The officials bribed by the Empress felt a bitter taste in their throats, unable to swallow anything; their inner fear made them dare not face the Emperor or stay here any longer.
Zhang Yaoyao was quite surprised too.
The Emperor of Tianng Country's heart ailnt had persisted for a long ti, many imperial physicians were at a loss, yet unexpectedly, it was cured by this rascal.
She increasingly believed this young man had a significant background and opposing him might lead to an invitation for disaster.
On the other side, Hongniang was more convinced that Lin Yifan was soone from a higher world, as only such a person could resolve this latent poison.
"Rascal, what sect do you belong to?"
"Whew!"
Exhaling deeply, the Emperor finally regained his senses.
At this mont, a concubine from the harem quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Emperor, how do you feel? Are you okay now?"
"Much better than before, but it seems the root has not been removed." The Emperor of Tianng Country replied.
"What? Then... didn't he deceive us?"
"Deception is unlikely, but there's certainly more to it."
Therefore, the Emperor asked Lin Yifan, "Why is it this way?"
"Presumably, the Emperor also guessed a bit, precisely because you're deeply poisoned, so it can't be eradicated quickly." Lin Yifan replied.
"How long will it take?"
"Two antidotes will suffice!"
"Good! Thank you, young brother."
"The Emperor is gracious, but since we share the sa plight, could you grant a bit of Clove Vine for saving you?" Lin Yifan boldly asked.
"No problem!"
The Emperor of Tianng Country straightforwardly took out a purple Clove Vine from the Immortal Ring and tossed it to Lin Yifan.
Lin Yifan caught it with ease, his smile unprecedentedly bright.
Seeing this, Zhang Yaoyao and Hongniang beca envious and asked, "Emperor, we also need Clove Vine, could you exchange with us?"
"You? Sorry, there's only one Clove Vine, I am powerless."
The Emperor of Tianng Country replied bluntly.
"Damn it! Old bastard, truly hateful!"
Zhang Yaoyao and Hongniang cursed inwardly, extrely displeased.
Hongniang was a bit tempted to cause trouble; an Emperor of the World of All Things dared not to give her face, truly living on the edge.
However, weighing her current strength against the Emperor of Tianng Country, she could not match him and had to endure.
Nonetheless, she would return, and with a vengeance.
After understanding his physical condition, the Emperor of Tianng Country began to settle accounts with those who sched against him.
"Imperial Physician Zhao, get out here!"
A furious shout frightened Imperial Physician Zhao in the crowd, causing him to shake.
Everyone looked over, discovering Imperial Physician Zhao's face pale as they guessed he might be involved in this matter.
The Empress sensed trouble, realizing the Emperor knew sothing after all.
She glanced at Imperial Physician Zhao, giving him a vicious look, signaling him not to reveal the master planner behind the scenes, or his family would face danger.
The Empress was right behind the Emperor, so Imperial Physician Zhao could clearly see the Empress's extrely malicious gaze.
He was sowhat at a loss, unsure whether to fight to the death or yield, sacrificing one life to save his family.
He had little ti to hesitate, and could only walk out, trembling, and face the Emperor.
"Emperor... Emperor, what do you require of this servant?"
"Tell , did you poison ?" The Emperor of Tianng Country asked with a pressure as imnse as a mountain.
"Thud!" Imperial Physician Zhao imdiately knelt on the ground, his face blanching with terror: "Emperor... Emperor, even with ten leopard's guts, I would not dare commit regicide."
"This dicine was prescribed by you, now it is problematic, you still wish to deny it?" The Emperor asked with a blank expression.
"The servant didn't know the dicine was problematic; I carefully brewed it according to dical books step by step." Imperial Physician Zhao replied.
"At this point, you still wish to quibble?"
"Emperor, truly it's not the servant's doing!"
"Stop pretending, poison is poison, no matter who assesses, the conclusion is the sa." Lin Yifan suddenly interjected harshly, exposing Imperial Physician Zhao's cri.
"Then why did Imperial Physician Jia and the others not detect any issues upon examination?" Imperial Physician Zhao asked.
"That's because this poison is scarcely recorded, if at all, in this world." Lin Yifan replied.
"Why do you assert that this dicine is poison?"
"The effectiveness of the antidote I refined and administered to the Emperor is proof enough." Lin Yifan answered.
"Ridiculous, what if it's rely a dicine to alleviate the condition?"
"That still surpasses your brewed poison."
"You..."
"Enough, take him out and execute him!"
The Emperor of Tianng Country no longer wished to see this traitor, issuing a decree for his execution.
Imperial Physician Zhao never expected the Emperor to act so decisively, causing him to panic: "Emperor, no! This old minister has served as Imperial Physician for two reigns in Tianng Country, you cannot kill !"
"Did you not hear clearly? Quickly take him out for execution!"
The Royal Palace Guard shivered, hurrying forward to drag Imperial Physician Zhao out for beheading.
"Emperor! You cannot kill this old minister, Emperor..."
Imperial Physician Zhao never revealed the mastermind behind it all, seemingly resigned to his fate.
The Empress sitting in her chair breathed a sigh of relief.
Her threat was effective enough, as long as the Emperor didn't pursue it further, there would be no issue.
Lin Yifan was sowhat surprised at the Emperor of Tianng Country's arbitrary decision, he assud the Emperor would question why Zhao acted, and if there was any mastermind involved.
"Emperor, aren't you curious why Imperial Physician Zhao poisoned you?"
"Young brother, you seem quite interested in my palace affairs." The Emperor of Tianng Country replied, his words hinting at deeper aning.
