"Big Brother, His Majesty ordered me to lead three thousand Imperial Guards to support you. We must force the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue to hand over the culprit. The Imperial Court cannot lose face. If they don't hand over the culprit, we will attack them from the front and take them down!"
When Dugu Feiying heard Dugu Xin's question, he calmed himself down before answering.
"It seems that they don't intend to hand over the culprit, so we can only attack them by force!"
At this point, Dugu Xin hesitated. "But if we attack by force, the poisonous miasma in the Serpent Spirit Mountain will cause us to suffer heavy losses!"
Dugu Xin smiled. "Big Brother, you don't have to worry about that. Other than the three thousand Imperial Guards, there are also two doctors from the Imperial Physician Bureau with me!"
Then, Dugu Feiying pulled two frail middle-aged men from behind and said, "Come, Doctor Wang, Doctor Qin, let me introduce you. This is my big brother, the commander of the Northern Imperial Guards. Big Brother, these two are doctors from the Imperial Physician Bureau. They are very good at detoxification!"
Dugu Xin was overjoyed. He quickly stepped forward and cupped his fists. "Doctors, thank you for your trouble!"
The two of them quickly returned the salute. The older doctor said, "General Dugu, it's our duty to treat patients.
As doctors, it's our duty to treat, save, and detoxify. Brother Wang and I will do our best to deal with the poisonous miasma in the mountain! The situation is urgent, so I hope General Dugu can let us go into the mountain to check the composition of the poisonous miasma. Only then can we find a way to detoxify it! "
The two of them were quite professional. They were going to test the poison with their own bodies!
Dugu Xin's expression turned solemn. "Honorable professors, you are indeed righteous! I will arrange for the soldiers to escort you to the edge of the Snake Spirit Mountain to check the miasma! However, I hope that the two of you will prioritize your own safety and act according to your capabilities. Don't be too hasty! "
"Haha! Don't worry, General. I know what to do! "
Doctor Qin replied with a smile. He then turned to Li Zexuan and asked, "Does Li Zhanshi want to go with us? Previously, Divine Doctor Sun praised Li Zhanshi's medical skills to us many times in the Imperial Medical Department! "
Li Zexuan saw that Dr. Qin was smiling kindly and didn't seem like he was deliberately messing with him, so he politely replied,
"That's all Daoist Sun's praise! I'm only good at treating some special injuries, but the art of detoxification is vast and complicated. I'm not proficient in it, so I don't dare to show off in front of the two professors ~! "
"Haha! Li Zhanshi is so humble ~! Since that's the case, the two of us will go first ~! "
Dr. Qin smiled and did not try to persuade him any further. He brought Dr. Wang with him and left.
"Take care of yourselves!"
Li Zexuan bowed and cupped his fists as he said.
Dugu Xin hurriedly called for four bodyguards to escort the two of them.
Under normal circumstances, the people of the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue wouldn't take the initiative to come out and throw away their lives. But these two doctors were very important, and Dugu Xin had no choice but to be cautious.
…
"Senior Brother! How is it? Are the soldiers at the foot of the mountain willing to reconcile with our Seven Cultivators of True Virtue? "
On the Snake Spirit Mountain, in the secret chamber where the Snake King was recuperating.
Snake King was recuperating with his eyes closed when he sensed someone pushing the door open. He opened his eyes and saw that it was Yin Batian.
"Sigh ~!"
Yin Batian sighed deeply and sat on the stone bench next to him. He said, "No! They're determined to catch you now, Junior Brother! It seems that a fierce battle is inevitable ~! "
Snake King was delighted. In the end, he didn't want the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue to reconcile with the Imperial Court just like that. If that happened, it would be like having a sword pressed against his neck all the time, and he would have to be on guard against Li Zexuan's sudden revenge. Looking at Yin Batian's expression, it seemed that he had shed all pretense of cordiality with the army at the foot of the mountain. In that case, he wouldn't be the only one 'fighting'! With so many people 'fighting side by side' with him, it would be a lot easier for him.
Although he thought so in his heart, the Snake King did not dare to show it on his face. He pretended to sigh helplessly and said,
He sighed and said, "Sigh ~! It's all my fault for being too reckless and causing the sect to fall into such a situation. Otherwise, Senior Brother would've just handed me over as a scapegoat! After all, the Imperial Court is powerful ~! "
"Bullshit ~!"
Yin Batian angrily slammed the stone table and said, "This old man has told you more than once that I, Yin Batian, will never betray my fellow sect members! Junior Brother, don't say such words again in the future ~! "
Snake King said with a 'touched' face, "Junior Brother will always remember Senior Brother's righteousness. If we can survive this calamity, I, Flying Snake, will definitely follow Senior Brother's lead in the future ~!"
Yin Batian was somewhat relieved to hear this. He waved his hand and said, "Junior Brother, you don't have to do this ~! However, this old man did meet Li Zexuan, the person you wanted to assassinate earlier, at the foot of the mountain! "
Snake King immediately became spirited and said excitedly, "Oh ~? Did Senior Brother take the opportunity to kill him ~? "
This old fart had been looking forward to Li Zexuan's violent death all this time. At this moment, he looked at Yin Batian with a hopeful expression, praying that he would hear the answer he had been dreaming of.
"No ~! Although I attacked him before, I didn't know that the kid was Li Zexuan when I attacked. I only wanted to teach him a lesson, so I didn't use my full strength. In the end, that kid dodged it ~! "
Yin Batian shook his head and explained. Then, he frowned and sighed. "That kid's Kung Fu is quite strange. Although I didn't use my full strength, it's still not something that a kid who just entered the Grandmaster realm could dodge ~! Junior Brother, it seems that you didn't lose to that kid in vain ~! "
Snake King's face was filled with shame. From a certain perspective, he was the one who made Li Zexuan what he was today. If it weren't for him, Li Zexuan might not have become a Grandmaster. His existence only served to highlight how outstanding Li Zexuan was!
"Senior Brother ~! That kid's Kung Fu is strange. Every move seems weak, but it's actually very powerful. If there's a chance to seriously injure him, we have to force him to tell us what Kung Fu he's learned before killing him ~! "
Snake King thought for a moment and said coldly.
Hearing this, Yin Batian's eyes inevitably flashed with greed. He nodded and said, "What Junior Brother said makes sense. But the most important thing right now is to find a way to help the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue survive this crisis ~!"
Snake King smiled indifferently and said, "Senior Brother, if they want to attack the mountain, just let them. In any case, the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue has already arranged everything. I don't believe that they can withstand the poisonous miasma in the mountain and the ambush at the mountain pass. Even if these can't stop them, we still have a final trump card! "
"Final trump card ~?"
Yin Batian looked at Snake King strangely. Then, as if he had thought of something, his face suddenly changed and he said, "Junior Brother, you mean …?"
