"This is bad!"
Placing his finger on her pulse, Chu Jiang's heart turned cold.
Even though he didn't know her identity, given that she was with the founder, she was bound to be an important figure. If she were to die here, his life would be over!
But after examining her condition for a long time... he had never seen anything like it before. All he could feel was that the other party's vitality was fading away, and she could die at any moment!
Flicking his wrist, a pill appeared in his palm, and he fed it to the other party.
Spirit Nourishing Pill!
A grade-1 pill that could replenish one's vitality and boost one's strength.
At this moment, this was probably the only thing that could alleviate the other party's condition and prolong her life.
Not expecting the other party to faint right after saying those words, Su Yin frowned. He walked up to the other party and placed his finger on her other wrist.
"Don't cause trouble, scram!" Chu Jiang's face darkened as he bellowed.
He didn't get too close previously, so he didn't know what the other party had said to the other party. However, he still saw the interaction between the two of them!
For the other party to faint after exchanging a few words, he suspected that the other party might have said something unpleasant, resulting in this situation.
This was also the reason why he immediately flew into a rage upon seeing the other party approaching.
Su Yin didn't get angry. Instead, he retracted his hand and took a few steps back.
Through their previous interaction, he had already ascertained the other party's condition. Even though he had never seen or understood the other party's condition before, he had a deep understanding of medicinal herbs, and he already had a treatment plan in mind. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "If I were you, I wouldn't feed her the Spirit Nourishing Pill at this moment..."
"What do you know!"
Unable to be bothered with the other party, Chu Jiang drove his zhenqi to help the other party assimilate the pill before turning his gaze back to the other party.
He thought that with the aid of the pill, the other party's condition would improve significantly. Yet, contrary to his expectations, her aura had grown even weaker, to the point where it seemed as if she would die at any moment.
"Physician Chu, what's wrong..."
At this moment, the physician from the merchant guild had also rushed over.
The two of them worked together to treat the other party for a moment before consuming a few more pills. However, Bai Yiran still showed no signs of recovery. Instead, her aura was getting weaker and weaker, and it seemed as if she was on the verge of death.
"I have to find the founder..."
Chu Jiang knew that it was impossible for him to save the other party, so he had no choice but to find the founder. Without any hesitation, he instructed, "Take care of her, I'll get teacher!"
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly strode towards the meeting hall.
The physician of the trading company nodded his head. Following Chu Jiang's instructions, he took out all kinds of nourishing medicinal herbs and tried to feed her. In the end, the more he fed her, the weaker the girl's aura became.
Unable to watch on any longer, Su Yin stepped forward and said, "Your actions will only lead to the deaths of others …"
This girl gave him a good feeling. She was dressed luxuriously, and it was obvious that her status was not low. Even so, she did not have an overbearing attitude. Instead, she was as bright as the girl next door.
It was one thing if he didn't see it or didn't recognize it. But now that he had seen it in person, how could he possibly stand by idly and watch the other party die in front of him?
Seeing the young man spouting nonsense, the physician frowned, but he still decided to explain himself. "Her Origin Energy is weak, and her body is severely damaged. If she doesn't nourish her body, she might have already breathed her last..."
"Her body is indeed very weak, but using these things to nourish her will only accelerate her blood flow, making her unable to bear it!" Su Yin shook his head.
It was true that one should nourish one's body, but there was also a saying that … the weak couldn't bear nourishment!
Her body was already extremely weak, and she could die at any moment. Consuming the Energy Replenishing Pill and all kinds of expensive medicinal herbs would only hasten her death instead of saving her!
It was just like how a person who had been starving for many days couldn't eat his fill. Instead, he had to eat more and more small meals. Overeating would only cause his stomach to rupture on the spot!
"What should we do then?"
Hearing the other party's tone, it seemed like he was skilled in the Way of Medicine, and considering that he was with Chu Jiang, the physician of the trading company couldn't help but ask. He was only an apprentice. Otherwise, he would have long been recruited by the medical hall instead of staying in the trading company as a medical staff.
"Bring me two ten-year-old Green Lotus Leaves and a stalk of three-year-old Life-Terminating Grass!" Su Yin instructed.
"Life-Terminating Grass?" The physician was taken aback. "That is lethal poison …"
Green Lotus Leaves had the effect of calming one's sleep, and they could be consumed without causing much harm to the human body. However, Life-Terminating Grass was lethal poison. If an ordinary person were to consume it, they would immediately die.
"Just bring it over!" Su Yin's eyebrows shot up. With a questioning tone, he said, "If you have any other methods, you can give it a try!"
Even though he didn't possess any cultivation, he had comprehended thirty-six different skills, and he carried an authoritative aura.
"I …"
The physician was taken aback. That was right. Even Chu Jiang was helpless, so what could he do?
After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright!"
Turning around, he left. Not too long later, the two medicinal herbs were brought over.
After inspecting them, Su Yin confirmed that there was no mistake in their age and medicinal properties. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He separated the two Green Lotus Leaves and placed one on the lady's glabella and the other on her lower abdomen. Then, he pried open her mouth and dripped the Life-Terminating Grass's juice into her mouth.
He dripped a little more than ten droplets on her.
After which, he waited for a moment before removing the Green Lotus Leaves. Then, he stood up and kicked the other party's abdomen and chest thrice.
"What are you doing …"
Upon seeing this sight, the lips of the physician of the trading company trembled, and his face paled in fright.
He didn't understand what Zhang Xuan was trying to do with the Green Lotus Leaves, but he knew what he was trying to do.
Even a healthy person would die from a single droplet of the Life-Terminating Grass. Yet, Zhang Xuan fed the other party ten droplets … Was he tired of living?
It was one thing for him to stand up and kick the other party, right?
It was clear that he wasn't trying to save her but kill her!
What kind of grudge did he have with her? How could he be so vicious to a lady?
It was over … Why did he trust this fellow? Once Doctor Chu Jiang came out and he couldn't explain himself, he would be doomed!
"Where are the guards? Hurry up and capture that fellow … "Unable to hold himself back anymore, the physician bellowed.
"You …" Not expecting the other party to suddenly fall out with him, Su Yin recalled his previous actions and hurriedly explained, "I was trying to save her, not harm her …"
"Let's talk to Doctor Chu Jiang when he arrives! Men, capture him first … "
Not bothering to listen to Zhang Xuan's explanation, the physician bellowed once more. Save her? Hehe, have you ever seen a person feeding someone poison or kicking someone after saving someone?
Do you take me for a fool?
Upon hearing the shout, the guards in the surroundings hurriedly rushed over.
"This …" Su Yin's expression darkened.
He lowered his head to look at the lady and checked her pulse again. After which, he heaved a sigh of relief. Without any hesitation, he turned around and ran toward the entrance of the trading company.
Wait to be captured … He wasn't that stupid!
Even though no one in Great Salt City would dare to do anything to him after his identity as Junior Uncle was exposed, the current situation of the Zhenxian Sect was not looking good. It was better for him to keep a low profile.
He wasn't far from the entrance to begin with, and his reaction was fast. He quickly escaped. Riding on Donkey, he rushed out of the trading company.
As if sensing that someone was chasing after him, Donkey fled especially fast today. The guards of the trading company chased after him on their steeds. However, the more they chased after him, the further they went until they couldn't see him anymore.
"Is that … a donkey?"
Looking at one another, everyone was dumbfounded.
How could a donkey be so fast?
Why did it feel like something was amiss?
