"Right now, Ling Tian has already revealed his trump card to us. Or rather, we have discovered his greatest trump card!" Nangong Tianlong let out a bitter laugh. "Just this point alone is enough to force us to board his pirate ship! Firstly, regardless of whether we are willing or not, we already know Ling Tian's greatest secret. Secondly, Ling Tian has already exposed the fact that our Nangong family had secretly plotted against the Ling family! Both parties are already completely honest with each other! Under such circumstances, we can either obediently cooperate with the Ling family and agree to all of Ling Tian's conditions! Secondly, we can shed all pretense of cordiality and become enemies! But now, we are already in a disadvantageous position in Sky Bearing. If such a frightening opponent is added to the equation, I'm afraid … haiz! "NanGong TianLong did not continue speaking and only let out a long sigh! His sigh was filled with the desolation of a hero at the end of his road!
Originally, they wanted to form an alliance with each other on equal footing. Who would have thought that they would end up in a situation where they could not back down! In fact, it was as though they were being threatened in front of their faces. Furthermore, such a blatant threat was one that they could not reject! Furthermore, all of this was because their own family had taken the initiative to look for them …
"Big brother, we can send out a secret order to our family and get all of our experts to rush to Sky Bearing! We would rather perish together with the Ling family and the Yang Family than to compromise and accept this little b * st * rd's dogsh * t conditions! "Nangong TianHu's weak voice still carried a tinge of viciousness!
"It's too late!" Nangong Tianlong shook his head bitterly. "Ling Tian has endured for so many years and only revealed his true colors at this crucial moment. Since he has already revealed his trump card to us, how can we not be prepared for this? I'm afraid that from now on, until we agree to Ling Tian's conditions and hand over the name list, not a single person from our Nangong family will be able to walk out of Sky Bearing alive! "
"Could it be that our Nangong family can only be coerced by him and obediently hand over the name list and the lives of nearly a hundred brothers? How could he bear such a great humiliation? I can't accept it! "Nangong Tianhu's breathing was heavy." If that's the case, I'd rather die! "Nangong Tianhu's voice was shrill and angry.
"Idiot!" Nangong Tianlong shouted angrily. "Don't tell me you want to let the hundreds of years of inheritance of our ancestors be destroyed in Sky Bearing for no reason?! If that's the case, how can we face our ancestors in the underworld?! Ling Tian already knows that we, the Nangong family, have sent some people to the Ling family. As long as he has time, he will be able to find other people. Even if he really can't find them, if there is no Nangong family in this world, then even if those people continue to exist, what's the point? "
Nangong Tianhu stubbornly held his head high and did not say a word! After a long while, his eyes were actually filled with tears! Although he was a rash and fierce person, he was also a man of iron. In front of such humiliation, he actually shed tears for the first time …
Who would have thought that the strong Second Uncle would actually shed tears? He had always been a man of iron who would rather die than lower his head! Nangong Yu felt an intense sourness in her heart. She quietly turned around and two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks …
Nangong Tianlong turned his head away and his expression could not be seen. However, his shoulders were trembling slightly. After a long while, he said in a low voice, "Yu 'er, make some preparations. Tomorrow, I will personally meet Ling Tian! We need someone with enough weight to face all of this! "
In that instant, no one in the room said a single word. It was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard! Only the melodious music of the Smoky Thea Tower could be heard from outside …
When the palace guards saw Ling Tian running in with Princess Jiao Yue in his arms, how would they dare to stop him? They dodged to the side and allowed Ling Tian to rush in!
The moment he entered the palace, Ling Tian's sharp senses had already caught the sound of Ling Ran's painful moans. Like a whirlwind, Ling Tian barged into the Imperial Concubine's palace, knocking into Long Xiang, who was anxiously pacing back and forth like a headless fly.
Ling Tian casually shoved Princess Jiao Yue into the arms of his mother, Chu Ting 'er. He was already sitting in front of Ling Ran's bed. Three fingers of his right hand were already on Ling Ran's wrist. His expression became more and more serious.
Lowering his head, he channeled his pure XianTian internal energy into Ling Ran's body. He asked, "What is going on?"
Ling Ran was already sweating profusely from the pain. She felt as if there were countless steel knives cutting her abdomen. What she was most worried about wasn't her own safety, but the fact that she wouldn't be able to protect her child. Coupled with the fear and pain, she had long been exhausted and her heart was filled with despair!
The moment Ling Tian's fingers touched her wrist, Ling Ran felt a surge of warm energy flowing into her body. This energy seemed to have unlimited vitality. The pain in her dantian and abdomen eased a lot. She couldn't help but feel joy in her heart, as if she had seen hope. It was as if she had grabbed onto the last life-saving straw. She grabbed Ling Tian's wrist and said tearfully, "Tian 'er, you're here. Aunt is in so much pain. Aunt's child is going to be gone. My child!"
Ling Tian patted the back of her hand gently, comforting her, "It's alright Aunt. I'm here. Little brother will definitely be fine."
For some reason, when Ling Ran heard Ling Tian's words, it was as if she had eaten a calming pill. A sad smile appeared on her face as she said softly, "Tian 'er, Aunt will rely on you."
Ling Tian made a sound of acknowledgment, but Ling Ran did not reply. He looked again and saw that Ling Ran's eyes were tightly shut. She had already fainted. Ever since the abnormality had occurred, Ling Ran had suffered too much psychological pressure. Adding to that the pain in her body, she had long been unable to hold on. Now that she heard Ling Tian's confirmation, she relaxed and could not hold on any longer. She fainted.
"This morning, Imperial Mother felt a little dizzy and asked Xiao Ju to find the Imperial Physician. Xiao Ju went for a short while and came back with the Imperial Physician. The Imperial Physician said that Imperial Mother had only caught a cold and was not serious. He prescribed a simple medicine that Xiao Ju had brewed. After seeing Imperial Mother take the medicine, the Imperial Physician left." Princess Jiao Yue lay in Chu Ting 'er's arms, her mind still unable to recover from the shock of the journey. Her face was flushed pink. As she spoke, she was still thinking about the scenes from the Ling House all the way to the Imperial Palace! The bloody landscape, the lightning speed, the warm embrace, and the sense of security that was like Mount Tai ….
"Wait a moment," Ling Tian suddenly interrupted her and frowned, "I wonder which imperial physician it is? What's his name? Have you asked him to treat your illness before? "
Princess Jiao Yue frowned, "His beard is quite long and he's very old. I've seen him before, but I can't remember his name. Right, Xiao Ju should know, Xiao Ju!"
He called out a few times, but no one answered. A palace maid whispered, "Xiao Ju isn't here, I don't know where she went."
Ling Tian's expression changed, "Where's the prescription? Let me see it! " When he first came in, Ling Tian placed his hand on Ling Ran's wrist. Based on the chaotic and somewhat erratic pulse, he was certain that Ling Ran had been poisoned! The most important thing now was to find out what kind of poison Ling Ran had been poisoned with!
While they were talking, Ling Tian's pure Xiantian inner energy was continuously channeled into Ling Ran's body. The power of the Ninth Layer of the Divine Shocking Dragon Technique was extraordinary. A surge of medicinal power in Ling Ran's body was slowly being extracted from her meridians by Ling Tian's Xiantian inner energy, and was forced to one place.
Ling Tian's five fingers each sent out a different type of inner qi. One of them protected Ling Ran's dantian, the other flowed upwards, and the last flowed down to cleanse Ling Ran's five viscera and six bowels of Ling Ran's inner qi. Two of the inner qi flowed upwards and downwards, forcing out the poison!
"The prescription is gone, maybe the Imperial Physician took it away!" A palace maid hurriedly came to report. She must have realized that something was wrong, for her face had already turned pale! One must know that the rules in the palace were the strictest. Losing the prescription for the Imperial Concubine was already a huge crime, but if something really happened to Imperial Concubine Ling, none of the palace maids would be able to live!
"That Imperial Physician, do none of you know him? What's his surname? What's his name? "The one who spoke was Emperor Long Xiang. He had heard that something was wrong and had already barged in. At this moment, he was even showing signs of exploding with rage! Someone actually dared to murder my beloved concubine in the palace! Who would have such guts?!
"This, this servant … doesn't recognize him …"
"En!?" Long Xiang snorted angrily. The palace maid's courage was shattered as she knelt down, "Your Majesty, please spare my life, this servant really hasn't seen him before."
Long Xiang was enraged, but Ling Tian promptly interrupted, "Think about it again, what did Little Ju call this Imperial Physician? What did they call him?"
The palace maid was so frightened that tears streamed down her face. Kneeling on the ground, her body trembled uncontrollably. She furrowed her brows and thought hard. After a long time, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "It seems that when that Lord came in, Little Ju said something. It was very vague … I think it was' Lord Shu, please come this way. 'After that, she didn't say anything else."
Ling Tian's eyes suddenly lit up, "You heard it clearly? Was it Lord Shu or Lord Su? "
With his reminder, the palace maid immediately remembered and said happily, "I remember now, it was Lord Su."
Ling Tian nodded silently. I should have known that it was him! After so many years, I heard that he had already retired and returned to his hometown. I didn't expect that he was still involved in this matter! Good, very good, the new and old grudges can be settled together!
