Chapter 242: Coma Again
"Father!"
"His Majesty!"
Zhao Zimo and Li Chonglin rushed over from a distance and were immediately frightened when they saw the ruins.
The unconscious Lu Yuguan was lying next to Li Ping, and both of them were frightened.
"Yuguan!"
Li Chonglin shouted at the top of his lungs.
Li Ping said calmly, "What are you yelling about? As the crown prince of a country, can't you even bear to see such a scene?"
"Father!"
Li Chonglin looked at Lu Yuguan's bloody chest, then at his father's slightly disheveled clothes, and immediately understood everything.
"Yuguan has only just entered the Golden Core stage, and his realm is still unstable. How could he have sustained such a severe blow?!"
Li Chonglin's eyes were red and he took a few steps to Lu Yuguan.
He squatted down, his hands trembling, wanting to check the wound, but was afraid of hurting Yuguan, so he hung in the air and did not dare to come down.
Li Ping spoke calmly, "Shang Li Shaoqing is indeed loyal and brave. It would be a waste of his talent to let him serve in the civil service."
"Father, are you just going to watch Yuguan suffer and refuse to help?"
Li Chonglin glared angrily.
"That eunuch's methods were strange. I wanted to help him, but I was a step too late," Li Ping said. "Besides, if I took action myself, I would inevitably hurt others."
Zhao Zimo stepped forward and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, Yuguan is eager to protect you. Now that you have fallen into this situation, I hope Your Majesty will do everything in your power to rescue you."
Li Ping nodded slightly, his gaze lingering on Lu Yuguan for a moment, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
A sword spirit furnace...is it necessary for healing?
The cauldron that Xuanyu Sect spent so much effort to cultivate was damaged here, so would they not come forward to rescue it?
Li Ping looked around and released his spiritual sense, but he did not detect any fluctuations in spiritual power from other cultivators.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong?"
"This kid doesn't have a furnace cauldron physique... No, it's impossible. If he's not a furnace cauldron, how could he possibly inspire Lin'er's dragon-patterned sword?"
Li Ping thought to himself.
Li Zhonglin gritted his teeth and looked at him: "Father, it's already this time, why are you still doubting and hesitating?"
"I will do my best, but he is too seriously injured. I can only keep him alive for now."
As Li Ping spoke, he waved his hand and a golden spiritual power was injected into Lu Yuguan's body, trying to stabilize his life first.
Lu Yuguan's face was still as pale as paper, his lips were bloodless, and his body was motionless, as if he was asleep.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and a few rays of sunlight struggled to penetrate the clouds and sprinkled on the ruins.
Occasionally, the sound of stones rolling could be heard from the ruins.
The Dragon Guards began to clear the battlefield and search for any surviving comrades.
"Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician!"
Li Chonglin widened his eyes and shouted loudly.
Soon, the imperial physician hurried over, his steps staggering, his forehead covered with sweat. When he saw the emperor and the prince, he knelt down to pay his respects.
Li Ping waved his hand impatiently: "Hurry up and go see Shao Qing Shangli. Make sure to cure him."
The imperial physician stood up tremblingly, walked to Lu Yuguan's side, put his fingers on his pulse, and after a moment, his expression became more solemn.
"Your Majesty, Lord Lu..."
"say."
Li Ping said impatiently.
The imperial physician was so frightened that he quickly bowed his hands and said, "Lord Lu's pulse is weak, and the demonic energy is constantly destroying his meridians. I can only try to use some elixirs to keep his heart meridians alive."
Li Chonglin was extremely anxious and grabbed the imperial physician by the collar. "No matter what method you use, you must save Yuguan. If anything happens to him, I will hold you responsible!"
"Your Highness, if you want to cure Lord Lu, you need to find a more exquisite healing medicine. However, such a medicine is hard to find in the world. I'm afraid there is none in the entire Longhua Kingdom!"
"Then go find it," Li Zhonglin cursed fiercely, "even if you have to search all of Dongxuan, you must find it!"
The imperial physician looked embarrassed and said in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, although that is true, the sacred medicine is of the seventh grade or higher. If you want to find it, you must go to Zhongdu..."
"What!?"
Li Chonglin shouted.
The imperial physician was so frightened that his legs went weak and he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Zhao Zimo frowned and said, "Calm down. At least Yuguan still has its aura. We can slowly search for the holy medicine."
Li Chonglin's forehead veins bulged, he pushed the imperial physician away, and his breathing became as rapid as a trapped beast.
"Zhongdu..." Li Chonglin gritted his teeth, "That's outside Dongxuan. It will take at least half a year to go back and forth. How can Yuguan wait that long?"
The imperial physician added cautiously, "Based on Master Lu's pulse condition, I'm afraid that within half a month, his meridians will be eroded by the demonic energy, and his cultivation will be completely lost."
Li Chonglin's mind was buzzing.
Half a month...
To become a cripple just after being promoted to the Golden Core Stage is like falling directly from heaven to earth.
"You mean, Yuguan will become an ordinary person?"
Zhao Zimo asked in disbelief.
Imperial Physician: “Yes… yes…”
"impossible!"
Li Zhonglin refuted, "It's not like his Dantian was damaged, so how could his cultivation just dissipate?"
The imperial physician said tremblingly, "Lord Lu's chest was pierced by a blade. At such a deep puncture, there is no chance of survival."
"Perhaps it was God's mercy that Master Lu's heart was not damaged, and he was fortunately able to survive."
"It's just that my meridians have been damaged by the evil energy on the blade... This evil energy is extremely cold and gloomy. I'm afraid even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage would find it difficult to remove it..."
Li Chonglin clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, and he was extremely anxious but helpless.
When he thought that Lu Yuguan might become a disabled person, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by thousands of needles.
Li Ping has been watching coldly.
If the Xuanyu Sect is truly concerned, they will definitely take action within half a month. If there is no movement, then they will have to treat it as an ordinary furnace tripod...
Seeing that Li Chonglin was almost frantic, Zhao Zimo stepped forward, pressed his shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "There's no point in being anxious now. The most urgent thing is to stabilize Lu Yuguan's injuries first."
"It's obviously impossible to go to Zhongdu to seek medicine. Let's look for medicine in Dongxuan first, and then think of other ways. Maybe there is a way to suppress this evil energy."
Li Chonglin took a deep breath and suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
He knew what Zhao Zimo said made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay... As you say, I will make the arrangements immediately!"
The Dragon Guards' cleanup was nearing completion, but the bloody atmosphere still lingered.
Li Chonglin squatted down, held Lu Yuguan's cold hand again, and murmured, "Yuguan, don't worry, I will never let anything happen to you. Even if it costs me my life, I will save you."
His eyes were full of determination, as if at this moment, nothing in the world was more important than Lu Yuguan's safety.
Zhao Zimo put Lu Yuguan on a stretcher and, along with the imperial physician, sent him to the Imperial Medical Clinic to recuperate.
……
Three days later.
Lu Yuguan is still not awake.
The imperial physicians sutured his wounds and even invited Du Lian to regulate his breathing.
"Doctor Du, how is Yuguan?"
Zhao Zimo asked.
Du Lian exhaled, "It's hard to say. Although he wasn't killed, his body has been corroded by the demonic energy, and he's in constant pain."
"It would be a miracle if he could wake up."
