138: Stay in the harem?

“By the way, that Chen Xuan just now, does he really know medicine?” Zhao Tianming asked.

“Yes, and his medical skills are very superb. He is a very good talent,” She Jingxi said, her face flushed, as she recalled the feeling of Chen Xuan holding her hand.

“Is that so? That’s a pity then.”

“A pity? Why a pity?”

“Because I want you to help me kill him!” Zhao Tianming said coldly.

Even Qian Muli, who was hidden, was startled. She never expected that Zhao Tianming would have such a thought!

In her impression, Chen Xuan had always been an impeccable gentleman!

But that day, Zhao Tianming suddenly tried to kill him! If Chen Xuan hadn’t recovered his strength, he would have been brutally murdered!

She was already very displeased by this, and she never expected that Zhao Tianming was still obsessed with killing Chen Xuan! Immediately, an immense disappointment enveloped her heart.

She Jingxi was also startled upon hearing this. She didn’t expect Zhao Tianming to ask her to kill Chen Xuan.

“He, isn’t he your friend? I even went out of my way to be friendly to him!”

“No, he is my mortal enemy, an enemy for life! With him around, I can’t accomplish anything!”

“He’s just a small doctor in the Golden Core Stage, how could he threaten you? At worst, I’ll confine him to the Royal harem and prevent him from bothering you!” She Jingxi was a bit puzzled. Chen Xuan was indeed a rare talent, and she didn’t want to kill him.

“If he doesn’t die, my heart will not be at peace! In return for saving you, will you help or not?”

“Since you’ve said it to this extent, I have no reason to refuse you!” She Jingxi said expressionlessly.

Today’s Zhao Tianming was completely different from the one she had met a few days ago, giving her a very chilling feeling.

Furthermore, she had already offered the millennium frost grass as a reward, yet he still wanted to use the favor of saving her to threaten her!

People who extort favors like this are the most disgusting!

“That’s for the best!” Zhao Tianming smiled, having received She Jingxi’s affirmation.

“I’m not saying I have to force you to kill him with this, but I also have my own difficulties, and I hope you can understand!” Zhao Tianming changed his tone and explained gently.

“Alright! I’ll help you kill him, and then we’ll be even. You can’t use this matter to make me do things for you again! However, he does have some medical skills. I plan to let him help me recover my Cultivation first, and then kill him!”

“Alright, but during this period, just let him stay in the Royal harem!”

“No problem.”

“Since you’re fine here, I’ll leave first. I have more important things to do!” Zhao Tianming bid farewell.

“Go.”

However, as he reached the door, Zhao Tianming stopped.

“Oh right, there’s one more thing I forgot to mention. This kid might have a very mysterious Cultivation Technique in his hands. Under his guidance, my fiancée cultivated directly from the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment to the Early Stage of Golden Core in just over a year!”

“Is that true?!”

“This is absolutely true. If you can learn the specific method from him, I think you will in the future…” Zhao Tianming didn’t finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.

She Jingxi was greatly shocked upon hearing Zhao Tianming’s words.

One must know that she had climbed up step by step from a naive Yao Beast! Only she knew how much effort and hardship she had put in!

Especially when she went from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, she couldn’t even maintain her human form at that time, and Breakthrough was even more difficult!

Now, to say that Zhao Tianming’s fiancée cultivated from the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment to the Early Stage of Golden Core in just over a year, this was simply incredible!

Comparing people, no, comparing people to snakes, it infuriates the snake! She Jingxi felt miserable!

If she had been able to obtain such a Cultivation Technique or had such a person to guide her back then, she would have already cultivated to Soul Transformation!

And now all of this could be obtained simply by prying it out of Chen Xuan’s mouth! Thinking of this, She Jingxi felt a surge of excitement.

“Good! I will get his secret!”

Zhao Tianming saw She Jingxi agree, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face.

“Then I’ll leave it to you!” With that, Zhao Tianming left the room.

...

“How was it? Did you cure her?” Chen Xuan asked, seeing Zhao Tianming walk out with a relaxed expression.

After all, wherever these Sons of Luck go, the best things are bound to be taken by them! Something like this Soul-mending item could be said to be prepared just for him!

“Alas, Brother Chen, you overestimate me. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with the Empress Dowager either! I just came to accompany you!” Zhao Tianming said with a smile.

“Alright then, since that’s the case, let’s go back. Wenwen must have been waiting for a long time!”

“Alright!”

Just as the two were about to leave, the old eunuch walked over and faced Chen Xuan: “By the Empress Dowager’s decree, you, Chen Xuan, are to stay and temporarily reside in the Tai Hospital. Everyone else is to leave the Royal harem!”

Chen Xuan: “???”

“Your Excellency, there’s no need to be puzzled. The Empress Dowager said that your medical skills greatly astonished her, and she believes you can treat her, which is why she asked you to stay.”

“But what about my side…”

“Hey, Brother Chen, don’t panic, I’m still here! You just stay here and treat the Empress Dowager well, and I’ll go back and take care of Wenwen!” Zhao Tianming quickly stepped forward.

“Alright, I’m relieved with you there. Although your Cultivation is not as good as Wenwen’s, at least you’ll have a companion!” Chen Xuan casually patted Zhao Tianming’s shoulder.

“Alright then, little brother will go back first. You don’t have to worry about Wenwen!” With that, Zhao Tianming left without looking back. No one could be happier than him right now!

After he returns, he will first refine the Spirit Medicine for his Revered Master, Qian Muli, and then inform Wenwen that Chen Xuan is a hypocrite who molested the Empress Dowager and was executed!

Finally, Wenwen will naturally be heartbroken, and he will comfort her kindly, and things will naturally… Hehehehe!

However, it’s a pity that even if he goes back, he is destined to find nothing!

...

“This is where Doctor Chen will be staying! In the Tai Hospital, you can move freely in and out, and use medicinal materials as you wish. However, once you leave the Tai Hospital, you can only move within designated areas!”

“No problem, thank you, guard Dage!”

“You’re welcome. I won’t say anything more. Farewell!” The guard cupped his hands and left.

Chen Xuan also returned to his room and began to ponder his next steps, as well as how to question Zhao Tianming after he couldn’t find Chen Wenwen.

But the most crucial thing was still the location of that coordinate.

Unfortunately, that location was not in the Royal harem, but within the Forbidden Ground of the imperial clan, where some core Elders were guarding it, so another plan was needed.

Meanwhile, after some thought, the Empress Dowager She Jingxi led her people directly to the Cold Palace to meet a mysterious beautiful woman.

The mysterious beautiful woman was slightly surprised to see the Empress Dowager personally arrive, but quickly regained her composure.

The woman’s appearance was exquisite, her face like peach blossoms and plums, her eyebrows like distant mountains, and her eyes sparkled like stars. She wore a simple white dress, yet it could not conceal her graceful demeanor.

However, her eyes revealed a hint of decadence and melancholy, and her slightly pale face carried a sense of detachment from the world. Her eyes were deep and melancholic, seemingly containing countless complex emotions.

“Senior, why are you here?” The beautiful woman was very surprised.

“What, can’t I come to see you?” She Jingxi said with a smile.

“Of course, but this is the first time you’ve come in all these years! Is there something important?”

“Indeed, there is one thing that will be beneficial to you.”

“What is it? Could it be that I can leave…?!?”

“That’s not it. It’s just that today I met a young man with very good medical skills who can treat your internal injuries,” She Jingxi said, shaking her head.

“You know, I no longer care about this. What’s the difference between having injuries and not having them?” The beautiful woman sighed.

“That’s not right. What if things take a turn for the better in the future, and you are delayed because of some injuries? Wouldn’t all your years of enduring humiliation be in vain?”

“This… Alright! But if I go out like this, will it cause you any trouble…?”

“You’re thinking too much. They still wouldn’t dare to be presumptuous in front of me, so don’t worry!”

“Then thank you, Senior!”
