"As long as you’re prepared in your heart, that’s good." Lub Su nodded and didn’t say more. Although the Four Lazy Kings aren’t diligent, when they do work, they are quite reliable.
"Hey, isn’t that Xiangjun?" Li Youu, while nodding, unintentionally caught sight of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl slowly walking towards the Political Office, and asked curiously.
"Master Li, Physician Hua requests you to provide a carriage that can reach the North within two days." Ji Xiang slightly bowed to Li Youu and said, her expression calm and natural, yet Li Youu did not underestimate this young girl in the slightest, as she is the newly appointed Academy Head of the Divination dical Institute.
Ji Clan, from the Qin branch, is not quite an aristocracy, nor has it declined. Her dical skills might not be unparalleled, but her psychological treatnt skills even caught Hua Tuo’s attention. She always wore simple shaman’s attire to authenticate her identity.
"Are they going North? Weren’t they doing well with their research in Ye City? Why the sudden trip North?" Li Youu asked puzzledly, ordering soone to bring a chair for Ji Xiang.
On the other hand, Lub Su lowered his head and silently dealt with docunts, completely ignoring Ji Xiang, because Ji Xiang has another identity—she is Lub Su’s personal physician. Hua Tuo had healed Lub Su’s ailnts, and the remaining issues were psychological, thus he was referred to Ji Xiang.
Being a personal doctor was not an issue, but in reality, Ji Xiang is Xu Ning’s cousin. Both are from Eastern Wu. Ji Xiang ca to the North for leisure and to visit Xu Ning. Unlike Xu Ning, who had conflicts at ho, Ji Xiang, as a legitimate daughter, held a very high status in the Ji family.
At the ti, Hua Tuo was recruiting physicians knowledgeable in psychology, so Ji Xiang joined in, and she ended up becoming the Academy Head. After all, a new institute needed soone both talented and scholarly, and age wasn’t important.
Having beco the Academy Head, she inford her family but didn’t return. Unlike most families, Ji Xiang’s family was lenient with their legitimate daughters.
While other won might be married off for alliances, in the Ji family, the legitimate daughters were not wed off as they were to sacrifice to the cultural ancestor, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, as Chief Priestesses, and were required to learn various skills. In exchange, the legitimate daughters of the Ji family had significant power.
Ji Xiang was initially being grood to be the Chief Priestess of her generation, but when she turned fifteen, the previous Chief Priestess, Ji Xiang’s aunt, who had always been unwell, unexpectedly began to recover and might live another fifty years, so Ji Xiang was released from those duties, along with her brother’s daughter.
Thereafter, with skills in shaman techniques and dical arts, Ji Xiang slipped away to find her cousin, only to end up as the Academy Head and serving as Lub Su’s physician.
Xu Ning was almost set to beco Lub Su’s wife, at least Lub Su’s grandmother was very fond of Xu Ning, and Lub Su himself had no strong opinions on the matter, so whatever his grandmother said was final, and it’s likely Lub Su will marry Xu Ning next year.
As for Lub Su’s previous wife, Xu Ning had already t her. Ji Xiang had privately inford Xu Ning about Lub Su’s issues, so Xu Ning knew the situation.
This was Lub Su’s most awkward position: it’s one thing for the healer to be a woman, another for her to be beautiful, but the fact that she’s his future sister-in-law was truly embarrassing. Yet, the treatnt results were quite effective...
"Lord Xuande, Lord Cao, and my big cousin have all gone North. Civil and military officials are gathering, and both Physician Hua and Dr. Zhang are eager to attend." Ji Xiang’s ethereal voice reached their ears.
"That’s hardly the entire reason." Li Youu comnted casually. Those two experintal maniacs are only interested in experintal materials; most likely, sothing’s happened again.
Ji Xiang smiled without speaking. Could she say that Zhou Tai’s coffin couldn’t hold him down anymore? Uh, it was Zhou Tai’s sedative that couldn’t hold him anymore!
Additionally, Ji Xiang herself wanted to go North since she hadn’t seen her big cousin Sunx Ce for a long ti. Although Ji Xiang’s relationship with Sunx Ce isn’t as close as with Xu Ning, just consider that Sunx Jian’s sister is Xu Ning’s mother. Could Ji Xiang and Sunx Ce’s relationship be more distant than that?
Seeing Ji Xiang smile without words, Li Youu refrained from asking further, ordering soone to prepare the carriage and sending another to investigate, resulting in news that made Li Youu’s face twitch sowhat.
On that day, Zhao Yun’s Inner Qi soared to the heavens, and the powerful sensed Zhao Yun’s might, naturally stirring Zhou Tai from slumber with such power.
Honestly, Zhou Tai was under constant research by Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii, with his Spiritual Will returning occasionally. As a strong warrior who had thoroughly integrated Inner Qi into his body, Zhou Tai’s body had been strengthened to a notable extent by consuming all his Inner Qi.
After being fully awakened by Zhao Yun, Zhou Tai’s will successfully returned. Although Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii suppressed it with dication, a top-level Inner Qi Manifestation isn’t easily subdued.
Even though he lost all his Inner Qi, the physical body strengthened by the fused Inner Qi and Divine Stone had reached the limit below Breakthrough Level, which was the level just before Dian Wei’s breakthrough.
Of course, Zhou Tai couldn’t like Dian Wei, who now treads air as if it were the ground, but if he fully exerted himself, he could manage a few steps; however, he wasn’t destined for flight. Furthermore, having burned through his Inner Qi, burning the will within the Inner Qi, and dying once more, Zhou Tai’s body nearly stopped generating Inner Qi.
He could barely utilize Heaven and Earth Essence, but without core Inner Qi, how much Zhou Tai could wield was uncertain; similarly, without Inner Qi containing personal will, his body lacked strengthening potential.
Basically, Zhou Tai’s state seed fixed for this life. Of course, if a Divine Stone could be found, his body could be further strengthened, but such items are rare; otherwise, if Guan Yu obtained one, he could enhance both his body and Inner Qi to reach Super Deity level.
In short, Zhou Tai’s situation was such that although his consciousness was reawakened and quickly put back to sleep with drugs, his remarkably resilient body had its Undying Monster attribute massively activated after extensive research by Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii.
In simple terms, before Zhou Tai’s instincts reawakened, Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii’s dication was effective, but once Zhou Tai’s instincts returned, their effectiveness drastically reduced!
Deed the third strongest human body in history, once conscious, it instinctively resisted the inhibitors injected by Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii; the first common inhibitor used was countered within several hours.
At the ti, Zhou Tai’s coffin was nearly flipped open, prompting Zhang Jii to switch inhibitors, but the effects had already greatly diminished. Zhang Jii reported the situation to Hua Tuo, and they both hurried to experint further.
Those days, Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii’s ti was nearly consud in suppressing Zhou Tai. Their previous research data on Zhou Tai were completely overwheld.
