Removing the Poison, Another Side of the Empress

Fu Sirui cried tears of joy. “This is great. With the Sword God’s help, His Majesty will definitely be saved.”

In contrast, Sun Hongzhang gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to break. However, everyone’s attention was on the Sword God, so no one noticed his abnormal behavior.

Sun Hongzhang took a deep breath. So what if he was the Sword God? He was probably helpless about such a strange poison too. Even if the poison could be removed, it would at least consume half of his internal energy. When that happened, their plan could be carried out unobstructed.

Thinking of this, he slowly revealed a smile and said, “Yes, the Sword God is here. He must have a way to save His Majesty.”

No one knew that under the amiable face was a wild ambition.

Lin Ran rode the sword into the palace without being stopped.

Besides, no one was bold enough to stop him.

Imperial Physician Zhang and the other imperial physicians were still on duty. They were all helpless mortals, including the eunuchs and palace maids.

Looking at the arrival of the person on a sword, their knees uncontrollably went weak and they almost fell to the ground.

They did not even dare to look Lin Ran in the eye.

“All of you, get out. I’ll treat His Majesty.”

Everyone felt relieved and fled like they were being chased by a ferocious beast.

After walking out, they could finally take in fresh air and felt like they had come back to life.

“The Sword God is really imposing and terrifying.”

“He is so mysterious. I wonder what he looks like.”

“Don’t ever think about that. We are not qualified to see him unmasked.”

The bold palace maids began to discuss.

On the other hand, Imperial Physician Zhang looked at the tightly shut door of the hall. He was still worried. After all, this was a rare poison. He wondered if the Sword God could really remove the poison.

The imperial physicians beside him were also worried. “According to the Sword God’s current cultivation level and realm, I think removing the poison won’t be an issue.”

“I hope so. Heavens, you must bless our Heavenly Saint Dynasty and keep His Majesty safe.”

Only Lin Ran and the unconscious Sheng Yuan Emperor were left in the huge palace hall.

Looking at the person lying on the bed, without the deliberate disguise, her feminine features were more obvious, and her pale face made her look especially fragile.

All the silver needles on her body were turning slightly black.

When the silver needles were turned completely black by the poison, even God would not be able to save her.

“Fortunately, I came in time. I hope you won’t forget about it upon waking up.”

Lin Ran thought of the Exorcism Sword Energy he had obtained previously. It should be effective against the strange poison in the empress’ body too.

He quickly pulled out the silver needles from the empress’s body. At the same time, he circulated the sword energy in his body. With a slight flick of his fingertip, it was as if ten thousand swords were released at the same time, forming countless small air currents that blocked the various acupoints.

When the silver needle dropped to the ground, the tip of the needle was glossy black. It went without saying how powerful the poison was.

The sword energy flowed through the empress’s vessels and veins. Lin Ran could clearly see a black stream flowing on her fair skin. As if it was affected by the sword energy, it kept retreating.

The movement of the balck stream also affected the empress. Her entire body trembled and her face turned pale. It was obvious that she was in pain.

The person who poisoned her was really vicious. If it weren’t for Lin Ran, the empress would most likely end up dying.

Looking at the unconscious empress, Lin Ran said, “Sorry for being rude.”

He pulled open the empress’s clothes, revealing half of her shoulders. Her skin was as smooth as milk, and the scene was especially tempting.

Lin Ran’s eyes were fixed on the spot where the empress’s heart was. His fingers inevitably touched that soft spot and sank into it like it was cotton candy.

Now that the empress was in a critical condition, there was no choice but to be in physical contact with her skin for the treatment to be most effective.

The light on his fingertips became even more dazzling as it shot into the empress’s body. In an instant, the black stream shrunk by half.

Only a small portion of the black stream was still flowing about and resisting. When it was caught by the Sword Energy, it was devoured immediately. The sword energy was still lingering in the empress’s body, helping her recover better.

After doing all of this, beads of sweat broke out on Lin Ran’s forehead. Although he did not use much internal energy, removing poison required meticulous work and precise control of his strength.

If he was not careful, the poison would spread and immediately corrode the heart. Fortunately, with Lin Ran’s current cultivation, he could handle it.

“Cold, it’s so cold…”

The empress muttered unconsciously, her teeth chattering. Under the side effects of the poison, she felt abnormally cold all over her body, and she instinctively leaned towards the source of warmth beside her.

It was as if there was a small stove beside her that was constantly emitting warmth. She let out a satisfied moan, but to Lin Ran, that moan sounded attractive.

When the empress wrapped her arms around his waist, his hand accidentally landed on the soft spot that was slightly warm.

At this moment, Lin Ran was in an extremely awkward position.

If the empress found out about it, she would definitely cut him into pieces. With this thought in mind, Lin Ran slowly lowered his head and met her eyes.

He stiffened and was struck dumb.

Oh no! I’m done for.

That was the first thought that came to mind.
