Chapter 485 Yin-Yang Supplementation
"Doesn't your king think there's something wrong with this?" Yan Daoxin asked.

"No, because Wang had always been taking care of himself and paying close attention to his health, so he felt that after a period of recuperation, he was able to replenish his yin and yang, so he was quite happy at that time."

Zhu Yu looked up at the eunuch in surprise after hearing his words. He was speaking with a straight face and did not seem to be lying. He even seemed a little confused. It was as if in his mind, his king should be able to draw more vitality from women. Why did he say it was not possible this time?

"His favorite concubine died after serving him for about half a year... Was it the same for every one of them, or just a coincidence?" Yan Daoxin continued to ask.

“Every, every single one…” The eunuch seemed to realize that this matter was indeed quite unusual. However, since King Brahma was fine before, they, who served the king, were too lazy to care about the lives of those concubines. After all, those women were not worth their attention. If the king didn’t care, why should they care?

But now that the king is in trouble, and when people ask about the concubines and beauties who died, realizing that they really are all dead, a deep unease rises in the eunuch's heart.

"If it were really some kind of Yin-Yang replenishment, how could it have turned a living person into this state?!" Yan Daoxin was furious. He pointed at the Brahma King on the ground, seemingly wanting to curse the eunuch, but then he remembered that a life was at stake and this was not the time to curse. So he said to the eunuch, "Go and fetch me the nourishing pills that your king usually uses to maintain his health. I want to see what kind of evil stuff he ate!"

The eunuch hesitated for a moment, and Zhu Yu quickly went over and pulled him: "Why aren't you going yet! If we don't find out what caused the poisoning, how are we, the divine physicians, supposed to prepare the medicine!"

If you delay any longer, your king might already have crossed the Bridge of Helplessness!

Upon hearing this, the eunuch dared not think any further and scrambled to fetch the medicine. In no time, he returned carrying a crimson brocade box inlaid with gold thread, clutching it tightly to his chest as if afraid of losing it in the slightest.

However, once he handed the item to Yan Daoxin, Yan Daoxin no longer had the mind to carefully handle it for fear of damaging it. He opened the brocade box and saw 11 pills sealed with wax inside, with four empty slots on the side, which must have already been eaten.

Yan Daoxin picked up a wax pill, crushed the outer wax shell, revealing a bright red pill inside, and a faint medicinal fragrance wafted out as the wax shell broke.

"Where did you get this?" Yan Daoxin frowned deeply when he saw the color of the pill and smelled its fragrance.

“These aren’t from somewhere else. They were specially made for our king by our high priest. I heard that the medicinal herbs used are extremely precious, and many people outside want to get their hands on them but can’t.” The eunuch hurriedly waved his hand, explaining the origin of the pills. “The high priest used to make some every now and then for the king to take recently.”

Before he went into seclusion, the king asked him how long he would be in seclusion and what would happen if he ran out of tonics. The high priest then worked day and night to refine enough elixirs for the king before he went into seclusion.

Yan Daoxin waved his hand at Zhu Yu: "Help me continue asking him!"

After saying that, he himself cracked open a pill, rubbed it between his fingers a few times, held it to his nose and sniffed it carefully, then licked a little bit with the tip of his tongue, frowning as he carefully examined it. Zhu Yu knew that he was in a hurry to prepare the antidote and wanted to find out what was inside the pill, so he didn't have time to question him. Therefore, he asked the eunuch, "You just said that the concubines who served your king would die after about half a year... What about these two? They just happened to reach the half-year mark today?"

“No, that’s not it…” The eunuch hurriedly shook his head. “In the beginning, the women who served the king would probably have to wait for more than half a year, and their health would deteriorate day by day until they died.”

However, after a few months, we gradually discovered that some of the women who had served the king only lasted three or four months before they became too weak. A few months later, the women who had served the king were only able to live for a little over two months...

Then...then it went from two months to one month, then from one month to less than half a month, and then he was gone every other day, and it's been like this ever since...

"What would happen if your king didn't seek out these women to serve him?" Zhu Yu believed that behind the so-called "yin-yang replenishment" where women gradually weakened and died after contact, while the Brahma King became increasingly radiant, there must be some kind of strong backlash.

As expected, when asked about this, the eunuch quickly looked at Yan Daoxin standing to the side and said, "If our king doesn't have women to serve him, he will become listless, feel short of breath, and be weak and powerless all over, unable to muster any energy."

And...and...even so...so weak, but...but still wanting someone to take care of me, that burning desire just won't go away..."

Zhu Yu frowned, and Yan Daoxin also turned his gaze to the eunuch, giving him a strange look.

"Our king has also realized that things are not going well. He doesn't want things to continue like this, and he feels that it might not be appropriate in the long run. After all, as the king of Brahma, it would be quite disgraceful for him to be known as a womanizer."

Furthermore... Originally, when the king chose a concubine, he would consider her family background and appearance. Later on, ordinary families were unwilling to send their daughters into the royal palace, let alone those from good families... The further along it went, the harder it became to find women who could be sent into the royal palace, and the king became increasingly uneasy.

However, this matter was ultimately difficult to discuss and not easy to hear, and it could not be known to outsiders. Unfortunately, the high priest had not emerged from seclusion since then, and the king sent people to search for him several times, but the guards at the gate forbade them from disturbing the high priest in seclusion.

With no other options, the king could only have us post notices outside offering rewards, saying that we had contracted a strange illness and that we were offering a large sum of money to skilled doctors and sorcerers to treat us.

As a result, the treatment dragged on for more than a year, and the situation was getting worse and worse. What used to be a woman's work to restore the king to normal now required two... and they still couldn't find a doctor who could treat him.

"I finally managed to meet you wandering physicians today, and before I could even finish speaking... before... again..."

He couldn't continue speaking.
