Chapter 1775 “Ji Song (3)”

Bai Yan lazily stretches her body before leaning in against the chair behind herself: “I got eighty percent certainty of curing your condition. If I do, you will stay by Ling Yan’s side. Of course, if I fail then this condition naturally absolves and you are free to do as you please.” Pausing to meet the child’s uneasy gaze: “And, the eighty percent is based upon the missing ingredient under my possession. I lack two important key material. If you can secure the two items for me then its one hundred percent certainty.”

In other words, she does not have full hope because the demon queen doesn’t know if she could find the last two item for the medicine. Otherwise, there’s not an ounce of risk or problem with the method.

Ji Song remains uncertain: “Mrs. Di, do you know what caused my body to behave this way?”

“Poison, a very serious and lethal poison at that. As for your pale complexion, that’s to do with your lack of interaction with the sun, causing your skin to look ghostly white. I’m sure you’ve heard of it from others, the sun will increase the severity of the toxin in your body and reduce your lifespan, that’s why you’ve been kept in the dark and became this unhealthy state.” Bai Yan casually states the details down.

Ji Song’s uncertainty gradually faded after the woman hits a bullseye. “Mhmm, it’s exactly as you say Mrs. Di. Several years ago the Monarch Manor suffered a huge unrest by the rebels in the domain. As a result, my parents died in the final battle. My grandfather too, he was in the middle of making a breakthrough at the time and had to abort his attempt in order to save me. If not for grandfather, I would’ve died back then as well.”

On that occasion, the losses suffered by the Monarch Manor was immense. Not only did the child’s grandfather lost the rare opportunity to make a breakthrough into a Divine Lord and become a monarch in his own right, he’s now stuck at his current level and wouldn’t know when the next opportunity would come around. And then there’s the elders who followed Heavenly from the beginning, they’ve all died during that unrest. If not for the surviving senior himself recreating the elder council, this entire place would’ve fallen into ruins already. It’s also the reason for them in coming up with the idea of bringing Heavenly back, their forces were drastically weakened and required their liege’s return less the other domains invade.

As for Ji Song herself, she survived but not before being poisoned by a toxin called Soul Bane. Like the name implies, this vile concoction slowly devours the host’s soul if she ever comes into contact with the sun. The more sunlight she takes in, the faster she dies. Without a cure, the grandfather of the child could only lock her up inside a dark room in order to keep her alive.

“As long as I can find a Soul Fruit and a Phoenix Feather then I can save you, however, the feather must be from a phoenix above the Demi Divine Lord.”

Demi Divine Lords are rare to begin with, let alone a phoenix that strong. Even in the Demon Realm, there’s only a few who even qualifies for that standard, not to mention a specific specie!

Then there’s the Soul Fruit. Not only does the fruit grows in extreme cold terrain, it’s a plant that bears fruit once in a millennium. Assuming the timing was right and you could live to that specific time period, the fruit’s aroma would draw in droves of wild animals to its spot for feeding…

Ji Song wanted to say something then despite the hurdle, but her voice was cut off by a frantic sound from the side in that moment.

“Miss Song, I’ve finally found you!” A maid ran over breathlessly, gasping for air with an anxious face. “How can you run around without telling anyone? What if something happens to you Milady? If you do then your grandfather will beat the lowly I to death…”

Whatever Song wanted to say then evaporated at the sight of her personal maid. Pursing those lips, she looks troubled and tied.
