Martial Boss Chapter 393

Within the study, a sudden silence fell, only the faint sound of Qing Yu’s index finger tapping on the handle rang out one by one.

One after another, the pharmacist felt his heart beating so loudly that he could not stop the cold sweat from breaking out on his body.

After the sound was made, the pharmacist definitely realised that he had made a mistake and regretted it, and the silence now was proof that the head of the dragon had taken this mistake to heart.

He did not dare to say anything, but he did not know whether it was an illusion or not, but he felt that the bronze mask, which represented the supreme authority of the Green Dragon Society and the fierce reputation of the Dragon Head in the jianghu, was right in front of him, and the deep eyes revealed on the mask were gazing at him indifferently.

The eyes were dark, as if they were an abyss, and the pharmacist only felt that this abyss gradually filled his vision, and there was only darkness before him.

“——”

The pharmacist clenched his teeth to keep his shocked cry from escaping, knowing that this was a punishment for himself.

It had to be said that compared to the original dude Zhang Qian Ding, the current Pill Master was truly transformed. Despite the endless fear that arose in his heart because of this feeling of being immersed in darkness, the pharmacist gritted his teeth and silently endured the punishment.

The darkness felt like a moment, and then a thousand years, until the Pharmacist felt that he could not hold on any longer, when the light suddenly shone before his eyes, and the world returned to its rightful colour.

“Whew!”

The Medicine Man fell limp to the ground, his eyes full of gratitude, and then he suddenly and hurriedly knelt down, not daring to say more.

“The next one will not be an example.” Qing Yu said indifferently.

“Thank you, Dragon Head!” The Medicine Master was like a great pardon.

It was then that he had the presence of mind to notice what was happening to him. Cold sweat had long since drenched his entire body, even flowing down to pool a small puddle on the ground, and Pill Master could see the reflection of his own pale face on the cold sweat on the ground.

With such a large amount of sweat, if not for the fact that Pill Master had broken through to the Innate Realm in recent times, he would have fallen to the ground in a coma by now due to lack of water.

“Since you know your mistake, then find my command and do it.”

“Yes, Dragon Head.”

————————

In the middle of the imperial city, the Hall of Nurtured Hearts.

Ever since Feng Tianming had been seriously injured and fell into a coma, this Hall of the Nurtured Heart had become the number one forbidden place in the imperial palace, with thousands of forbidden troops surrounding this palace and nearly ten True Dan realm experts constantly patrolling in the shadows with their vision.

Except for the eunuch doctors who attended to the emperor and the head of the Medicine King’s Court Spiritual Gate of the Great Zen Temple, the rest of the people, even the empress, could not easily enter the Palace of the Nurtured Heart.

“Cough cough cough ——”

A heartbreaking coughing sound came from the heavily guarded Hall of the Nurtured Heart, a cough so loud that the large Hall of the Nurtured Heart could not stop it from reaching the outside.

The cough was followed by the sound of rapid breathing, inhalation and exhalation, as if he was breathing with all his strength, a sound full of desire and greed for life, fearing that he would die before he could catch his breath.

The viewer turns from outside the Hall of the Cultivated Heart to inside, where on top of the dragon chair in the middle of the Hall of the Cultivated Heart rests a middle-aged man pressing his chest and panting rapidly.

The middle-aged man, dressed in a dragon robe and with a sickly face, was clearly identified as Feng Tianming, the Northern Zhou Emperor who was rumoured to be in a coma.

No one outside expected that the Northern Zhou Emperor, whose presence was now shallow, had somehow awakened. And looking at his appearance of being able to sit on the dragon chair already, he should have been awakened for some time.

“Cough ——” Feng Tianming coughed violently again, “Old Six he, has suffered an a*sa*sination?”

“Exactly, people outside are rumouring that it was the Empress who couldn’t bear the pain of losing her son and secretly sent someone to retaliate.” Beside Feng Tianming, the old eunuch who had instantly frozen the Eastern Palace’s bedchamber as well as the Zhouliu Eight Extremes Formation with the power of his two palms to self-destruct that day returned.

“The Empress is not that shallow,” Feng Tianming shook his head slowly, “and I know exactly what power the Empress has at her disposal, she did not send anyone to a*sa*sinate Old Six.”

“Then there are other people with evil intentions, but fortunately His Highness has escaped this fate.” The old eunuch laughed.

“A lucky man? I wish this rebellious son had died at the hands of an a*sa*sin, cough cough cough ——” Perhaps his anger had affected his lungs, Feng Tianming coughed again.

After a while, Feng Tianming caught his breath and said weakly, “This rebellious son, I was worried that if he had a name, he would directly eliminate his other brothers, so I didn’t give him the position of supervising prince. I never imagined that he would a*sa*sinate the boss in an act of a*sa*sination. The rebellious bones in the back of this rebellious son’s head are almost poking through his scalp.”

Although the eldest prince had been obscure due to his mediocre talent, as Feng Tianming’s first son, he had actually pinned the greatest expectations on the original Feng Tianming.

From the name Guan Yu, it could be seen how much Feng Tian Ming expected from this first son. It is only a pity that the Grand Prince did not later respond to this great expectation.

”The rebellious bone at the back of the rebellious son’s head is still not cla*s you?” The old eunuch of extremely high status quietly rolled his eyes.

The Sixth Prince was the son who most closely resembled Feng Tianming, not only in looks, but also in personality. The same ambition, the same ruthlessness, the same backbone at the back of his head.

If we say that Feng Chaonan’s backbone is about to pierce his scalp, then Feng Tianming’s backbone has grown into the form of a slippery ghost.

Not to mention the various ruthless methods he used when he was young to fight for the throne, from the series of actions Feng Tianming has taken in recent days, it is clear that he cannot tolerate anyone riding on his head.

If anyone dared to ride on Feng Tianming’s head, the backbone at the back of his head would dare to pierce that person’s heart.

“Cough, cough, cough —— Has there been any new developments on the side of the Imperial Doctor regarding my condition?”

“The same as always,” the old eunuch shook his head, “His Majesty’s qi and the dragon vein were so combined at that time that they were nearly indistinguishable from each other, and that fierce weapon that targeted the dragon vein cut off the dragon vein and also His Majesty’s vitality, His Majesty’s vitality, at most, can last for two more years.”

“Two years — cough cough cough ——” Feng Tianming coughed in a series of agitation, “If it wasn’t for the Long Hu Mountain and Qiao Bai Xuan’s group of thieves who injured the dragon veins and added to my injuries, would I have only had two years, cough cough ——”

To say the least, Feng Tianming was also aggrieved enough, he was clearly recuperating quietly, but as a result, misfortune came from the sky, the Qi of the Dragon Vein was taken away, touching the previous injuries, adding to the woes, causing the original three to four years of life span to shrink to two years, nearly half of it in one go.

When Feng Tianming woke up at that time and learnt about this, he was nearly so angry that he died on the spot. It was really not easy for him to survive.

“No matter what, the matter of the Nirvana Ritual must definitely be stepped up, there is no time to lose, I will never resign myself to this.”
