The inner courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion was heavily guarded, with a sentry every three steps and a sentry every five steps.
Jun Changxiao followed a tall and sturdy general in. Looking at the well-trained soldiers, he muttered in his heart, "As expected of the Imperial Family. Their battle formation is really big."
He was a little surprised when the City Lord informed him that the royal family of the empire had come. After all, he had only treated patients for a few days in the Scarlet Hell World. How did the news spread to the distant imperial capital?
Could it be that there were also patients?
Thinking of this kind of disease that made it easier to get infected with the more firestones one absorbed, Jun Changxiao immediately understood.
"Mr. Jun."
As the general walked, he reminded him, "Please don't spread the news of our visit."
"Understood."
Jun Changxiao could see that the warriors in the city were living as usual, which meant that the royal family of the empire had secretly come.
"Ta."
The general stopped outside the room and cupped his hands. "Young Master, Mr. Jun is here."
"Please."
A slightly weak voice sounded.
Although Jun Changxiao didn't understand medicine, he could tell that the person who spoke was definitely sick.
"Please."
The general waved his hand.
Jun Chang Xiao bluntly pushed the door open and entered, only to see a gentle and beautiful woman inside.
She was sitting in an armchair, her face pale and her eyes dull. She squeezed out a smile with difficulty, looking very pitiful.
"This is the royal family of the Blue Waves Empire?" Jun Changxiao muttered in his heart.
"A sudden visit."
The woman said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Jun."
Although her voice was weak, there was nobility in her speech. It could be seen that not only did she have a high status, but she also had a very high education.
Jun Changxiao sat on the chair that was obviously prepared for him and cupped his hands. "How should I address you?"
"Yu Feiya."
The woman seemed to be a little strenuous to speak. She simplified the red tape and introduced herself very straightforwardly. "Eldest Princess of the Blue Waves Empire."
Princess?
This identity was a little big!
Jun Changxiao got up and pretended to be respectful. "This commoner Jun Chaoshuai greets Your Highness!"
In other people's territory, he naturally had to follow the procedures.
What's more, whether or not he could make a lot of money depended on this royal customer. It was no problem to be humble.
"Then be humble!" The system roared. "Why are you called Jun Chaoshuai!"
"Of course!"
"…"
Yu Feiya said with a bitter face, "My Blue Waves Empire is already at dusk, it is not worthy for Mister Jun, this kind of eccentric person to salute."
Jun Changxiao was stunned.
Although Blue Waves Empire only existed in name, but when all was said and done, it was still the ruler on the surface.
Now that even the eldest princess looked down on him, the royal family was truly a coward.
"Your Highness."
Jun Changxiao asked, "Are you here for treatment?"
"Not bad."
Yu Feiya found it more and more strenuous to speak, so she paused for a moment after saying those two words before continuing, "I heard that Mr. Jun can eradicate the fire poison incurable disease, so I specially came to seek medical treatment."
Jun Changxiao said, "The princess doesn't seem to have contracted the fire poison."
"That's because I used some kind of special medicinal pill to suppress it. Although it stopped the spread of the poison, the consequence was that my body was weak all year round," Yu Feiya said.
"I see."
Jun Changxiao understood and immediately took out a pill.
"Saving people is like putting out a fire. Princess, please quickly take this and completely get rid of the fire poison."
Yu Feiya had already heard about this kind of magical medicinal pill. Since she came from the imperial capital to seek medical treatment, she naturally wouldn't doubt it. She immediately took it and threw it into her mouth.
The pill merged into her body, and the fire spirit power it emitted cleared the fire poison as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
Yu Feiya's spirit gradually improved, and her lifeless eyes also became clear.
As the princess of the empire, there was nothing to say about her appearance, but because she was plagued by illness all year round, she looked very pale and weak. Now that the fire poison was dispelled, she immediately recovered some beauty.
As for how beautiful she was, there was no need to describe it, because in Jun Changxiao's eyes, women were only tall, short, fat, and thin, and then … there was no difference.
"As expected!"
Yu Feiya stood up and said excitedly, "Mr. Jun's medicinal pill can eradicate the fire poison incurable disease!"
"The medicinal pill that Your Highness took was refined by Jun with more medicinal herbs, so you need to pay two thousand first-class fire stones," Jun Changxiao said.
"Seeing that she has a noble status, you immediately raise the price!" The system said, "Profiteer!"
Jun Changxiao defended himself in his heart, "If it was a commoner, I would definitely give it to her for free, but this is the princess of the empire. Her life is so precious. Is it a loss to give her two thousand?"
Yu Feiya said, "I didn't bring so many first-class fire stones, how about …" She paused and smiled, "Follow me to the imperial capital, and I will double the compensation."
F * ck!
If you don't have money, why do you have to treat your illness!
"This …" Jun Changxiao said, "This is a small business …" He wanted to say that he didn't accept credit, but he felt that it was wrong and immediately said sanctimoniously, "The medicinal pill that Your Highness took used too many medicinal herbs. If there are no fire stones, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to continue refining and treating others."
The meaning was very simple. He had to pay.
From this, it could be seen that Gou Sheng was sometimes very stingy.
"There are many medicinal herbs in the palace's medicinal herb warehouse. After Mr. Jun goes, you can choose whatever you want," Yu Feiya said.
"This …"
"General Che."
Yu Feiya clapped her hands.
"Creak!"
The burly general walked in and said, "I'm here!"
Yu Feiya said, "Take Mr. Jun to the imperial capital immediately. Take good care of him on the way and don't let any accidents happen."
"Yes!"
General Che accepted the order and looked at Jun Changxiao. He cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Jun, please!"
Jun Changxiao's expression became interesting.
He had already seen that this woman didn't want to go back on her word, but deliberately took him back to the imperial capital. Could it be that she liked him …
"Bah!"
The system really couldn't help it.
Jun Changxiao roared, "What I'm thinking is, did she take a fancy to my medicinal pills and plan to lock me up in the forbidden area of the imperial palace and then become a tool for refining pills?"
He guessed right.
This kind of fire poison terminal disease had been rampant in the Scarlet Hell World for a long time and had become a problem that the medical world had never been able to solve. Suddenly, someone could cure it, so it must be controlled immediately.
For example.
Gou Sheng returned to Earth as a powerhouse. As long as he revealed a little bit of his cultivation, he would immediately be locked up in a research institute and undergo a comprehensive scientific dissection.
…
"Thud, thud, thud!"
Outside the City Lord's Mansion, a few carriages left.
City Lord Wang stood at the door and watched them gradually disappear. He thought to himself, "Mr. Jun is going to have a meteoric rise!"
However, the person involved was sitting in a cage-like carriage at the moment. He broke down and said, "Your Highness, Jun has no objection to going to the imperial capital, but you don't have to lock me up!"
"I'm afraid you'll run away …"
"No!" Yu Feiya hurriedly changed her words. "Mr. Jun, don't misunderstand. This is my personal carriage. There are high-level formations around it to prevent assassination."
"…"
Jun Changxiao was speechless.
This woman was still polite and reasonable just now, but after recovering from her illness, she was simply unreasonable.
In fact, with Gou Sheng's strength, he could break the carriage with a raise of his hand. The reason why he sat in it obediently was because he wanted to go to the imperial capital. After all, there were more royal families there, and it was definitely a heaven for making money.
A few days later.
Jun Changxiao jumped down from the prison carriage and looked at the city walls that protected the imperial capital. The ground leading to the city was extremely muddy. The corner of his mouth twitched. "This is the center of an empire?"
"In the eyes of many kingdoms, the fact that the Blue Waves Empire still has an imperial capital is already a great gift from them," Yu Feiya said.
Jun Changxiao noticed that when this woman spoke, her hands were tightly clenched. There was anger and unwillingness in her bright eyes, so he secretly said, "This woman is not simple. She has her own ideas."
The System said, "In my opinion, the host is not simple. The people he meets are not simple."
