As soon as they landed, Linlong and Princess Lan Xi felt that something was wrong, because the palace was in a mess, many people were running around like headless flies.
"What happened?" Princess Lan Xi pulled a maid and asked.
The maid then realized that the one standing in front of her was Princess Lan Xi, and immediately said, "Not good, the Spirit Demon Emperor is seriously ill, he couldn't speak just now."
"Wasn't Father Emperor fine just now? What's going on?" Princess Lanxi exclaimed.
"I don't know, in short, the Spirit Demon Emperor was so ill that he directly laid on the ground, he couldn't even speak." The maid said.
"Where is father now?" Princess Lan Xi hurriedly asked.
"In the harem, a few elders are also there."
Princess Lan Xi immediately ignored the maid and directly rushed towards the harem.
Could it be that Casey dared to attack me because of this? As she ran, this thought emerged in her mind.
Soon, Princess Lan Xi and Linlong arrived at the harem, only to see the Spirit Demon Emperor lying on the bed, surrounded by a few elders who were at a loss.
"Princess, you're back!" Upon seeing Princess Lan Xi, the elders all greeted respectfully.
"Father, what happened?" Princess Lan Xi hurriedly asked.
"The Spirit Demon Emperor's old injuries relapsed, he couldn't suppress it, so …" An elder said.
"Where's Elder Shank?" Princess Lan Xi asked again.
"Elder Shank went to concoct medicine, the medicine from before was useless on the Spirit Demon Emperor."
"Although Elder Shank went to concoct a new medicine, it won't be of much use."
The two elders said. From the looks of it, they didn't have any hope of curing the Spirit Demon Emperor.
Hearing the two elders say this, Princess Lan Xi's heart also sank, Elder Shank was their Walan Basin's most powerful alchemist, if even he couldn't save the Spirit Demon Emperor, then obviously no one could save the Spirit Demon Emperor.
"Cough cough cough …" At this moment, the Spirit Demon Emperor suddenly coughed, and as he coughed, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Father." With a sorrowful cry, Princess Lan Xi walked forward and held the Spirit Demon Emperor's hand.
This Spirit Demon Emperor looked like a dignified middle-aged man, Linlong with his powerful spiritual will could see that his true form was a white tiger.
"Lan Xi." Looking at Princess Lan Xi, the Devil Emperor revealed a smile.
After he rubbed Lan Xi's fine black hair, he restrained his smile, and then he said in an extremely solemn tone to the elders before him, "Elders, the Southern Ridge King and the others already know that my old injuries have relapsed, and they'll be here very soon. At that time, it'll be extremely difficult for all of you to leave. So, I hope that all of you can leave now and protect the princess' safety!"
"Father, you must come with us!" Princess Lan Xi said with a firm expression.
"No!" The Demon Emperor shook his head. "Even if I leave, I won't be able to escape death. So, at this last moment, I hope to stay here."
This was the empire that he had fought for with his own hands. He couldn't bear to run away just like that. Therefore, he would rather die fighting here.
"Father!" Princess Lan Xi cried out in sorrow again, hoping that the Demon Emperor would change his mind.
"Lan Xi, I've made up my mind." The Demon Emperor shook his head and looked at the Elders as he said in a commanding tone, "Quickly take the Princess and leave this place!"
"Yes!" The Elders knew that it was impossible to change the situation, so they immediately responded in unison.
Just as the Elders were about to forcefully take Princess Lan Xi away, a voice rang out behind them.
"Demon Emperor, I have a pill here. I heard that it's effective for treating injuries to the Dantian. I wonder if it'll be of any use to you."
The one who said this was naturally Linlong. After carefully observing the Demon Emperor for a while, he could tell that the other party's Dantian had been injured before.
And he had such a pill in his hand. Because he had a good impression of Princess Lan Xi, he took it out.
Hearing this, the few of them turned around and looked at Linlong with a puzzled expression.
"Who are you?" An Elder asked in a deep voice.
They only knew that Linlong had followed Princess Lan Xi in, but they didn't know who he was.
"He's a guard that I brought back from the Southern Plains City." Princess Lan Xi explained.
"How could a guard have such a pill?" The Elders were puzzled.
This couldn't be blamed on them, because this pill was extremely expensive. Even Elder Schenker couldn't refine it. In the entire world, probably only the people from the Forbidden Lands could refine it.
"Elders, Youtu saved me just now, so you don't have to doubt him. He definitely doesn't have any ill intentions." Seeing that the Elders were so doubtful, Princess Lan Xi hurriedly said.
The Elders still didn't believe it. After all, there were too many people who used this trick. It was possible that Linlong saved Princess Lan Xi in order to get close to the Demon Emperor and poison him.
At this moment, the Demon Emperor suddenly said, "Lan Xi, ask him to bring the pill over. I'll try it!"
Since he was going to die anyway, even if it was very dangerous, the Demon Emperor had to give it a try. Of course, the most important thing was that he believed in Princess Lan Xi and her intuition.
Seeing that the Demon Emperor had already said so, the Elders naturally didn't insist. Instead, they asked Linlong to take out the pill. After receiving the pill from Linlong, they carefully smelled it before handing it over to the Demon Emperor.
If Elder Schenker was here at this time, it would naturally be good. However, Elder Schenker was refining the pill, so how could he rush over?
The Demon Emperor no longer hesitated. After receiving the pill, he directly swallowed it.
As soon as it entered his stomach, the Demon Emperor immediately felt a burning sensation in his abdomen. Knowing that it was the pill's efficacy, he hurriedly circulated his cultivation technique to absorb the pill's efficacy.
The few elders and Princess Lan Xi naturally looked at the Demon Emperor nervously.
After a while, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside. Then, a dozen Demon Race suddenly appeared in front of them.
The leader of the Demon Race wore a yellow coat and looked extremely calm. Linlong could see that his original form was a leopard.
"Southern Mountains King!"
Upon seeing this Demon Race, Princess Lan Xi and the others were shocked.
"Demon Emperor, I heard that your old injury had relapsed. Potter, I hurriedly rushed over. How are you now? Are you feeling better?" The Southern Mountains King said.
"Uncle Potter, you don't need to worry. Father's body is very good now." Princess Lan Xi said coldly.
"Huh? Lan Xi, why did you come back so quickly? Casey said that he would pick you up. Didn't he pick you up? "Turning to look at Princess Lan Xi, the Southern Mountains King said with a look of surprise.
"Uncle Potter, did you send Casey to catch me?" Princess Lan Xi's face darkened.
"Lan Xi, I only asked Casey to pick you up. It seems that you have misunderstood." The Southern Mountains King shook his head and said.
"Uncle Potter, since things have come to this, you don't need to hide your ambitions anymore!" Princess Lan Xi sneered.
"Lan Xi, Uncle Potter doesn't have any ambitions. It's just that with the way you are, Uncle Potter is worried about handing the Demon Emperor to you." The Southern Mountains King shook his head.
