Chapter 1118 Exchange Conditions
The bodyguard was the first to speak:

"Your Majesty, perhaps this person from another world is exaggerating. What she said may not be true. This needs to be verified from multiple sources."

King Chiyang's eyes flickered as he meticulously compared the current state of Chiyang Kingdom with the facts, word by word. Then, somewhat dejectedly, he discovered that most of what the otherworldly people said was actually correct.

As the ruler of a nation, he knew the situation in Chiyang Kingdom best, including his own sons, ministers, and even the Imperial Preceptor You'an.

Not only did You'an fail to protect the peace of Chiyang Kingdom, but he also harmed many young boys and girls. Previously, he dared not speak out against him and even had to flatter him. Now, this otherworldly person named Ranxi might be able to deal with You'an, the national teacher, and free him from being controlled by others.

Ranxi's words echoed in Dugu He's mind. It seemed that he had found the reason why he could not break through to the Saint Master level. But what good was finding it? If he did not solve this problem, he would still not be able to break through even if he had a very long lifespan.

After a moment of deathly silence, the king stood up and said to Dugu He:

"I'm sorry to trouble Grandmaster He to stay at the Summer Palace for the time being. There are some things I need to verify back at the palace. I will inform Grandmaster He once I have made a decision."

King Chiyang didn't tell Dugu He to monitor Ranxi. He already knew from their conversation that even though the otherworldly being who could cause the phenomena had his strength suppressed, he was still no match for Dugu He. Dugu He was just keeping watch here to put his mind at ease.

Dugu He nodded in agreement, then watched the king and his guards disappear into the darkness before returning to the palace that very night. He believed that he would soon receive the king's new orders.

Back at the palace, King Chiyang used a headache as an excuse to summon the royal physician. This time, he chose a newly arrived physician. From the physician, he learned that his illness, caused by overwork, had spread to his internal organs, and he was already nearing the end of his life, though it was not outwardly apparent.

King Blazing Sun took a deep breath and said:
"Imperial Physician Xi, all you need to do tonight is record on the medical record that I have caught a cold, and prescribe medicine accordingly. You must not tell anyone the true condition of my body, or you will not live either."

Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Xi trembled and immediately knelt down, his voice shaking as he said:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I would not dare to reveal Your Majesty's medical records even if I had several lives."

"You go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Imperial Physician Xi rose and wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead with his sleeve before hurriedly leaving the king's palace.

The guard immediately knelt on one knee and said:
"Your Majesty, they deserve to die for concealing your illness. I will go and invite that otherworldly person to the palace immediately. She should have a way to help Your Majesty recover your health."

The frown lines between the brows of the Blazing Sun King deepened. He rubbed his brow and said:

"You think she would help me for free?"

"Then grant her request. Your Majesty cannot afford any mishaps. If news of your health issues spreads, the Yinshui Kingdom will be the first to attack us."

King Chiyang closed his eyes briefly, then opened them after a long while. This time, his gaze was resolute as he instructed his guards:

"Come closer, I have a few things to tell you to do."

"Yes."

The bodyguard leaned in to listen. The king's command caused a look of surprise in his eyes, which then turned to determination. Finally, he knelt on one knee and said:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will certainly complete the mission."

The next day, he left the palace under the pretext of going home to get married.

Yunxi stayed at the manor for three days and did not see the king again. Even Dugu He rarely showed his face, as he seemed to be diligently cultivating.

In the past three days, Yunxi's internal injuries have been mostly healed, and her meridian injuries have been repaired by 50%. The remaining injuries have no effect even with the use of pills. She can only wait for her immortal energy to recover and then use her cultivation techniques to repair them. The injuries to her consciousness are the most troublesome. She has only managed to stop the pain and keep herself conscious so that she doesn't faint.

Moreover, as time went by, her memory continued to blur. Currently, her memory stopped at the time she entered the Forging Fire Secret Realm to receive the weapon-refining inheritance. Yunxi touched the white hammer at her waist. Now, it was not only unusable but also inaccessible. She could only take out the animal hide scroll and review her records over and over again to ensure that she wouldn't forget the most important information.

On the morning of the fourth day, Dugu He, dressed in a long black robe with subtle patterns, came to the door again. He said to Yunxi:
"His Majesty sent me to deliver a message: if you can kill the Imperial Preceptor You'an without incurring divine punishment, he will believe you and cooperate with you to destroy the evil formation."

Yunxi nodded in agreement without hesitation:
“This matter is simple, but we need to lure that National Preceptor You’an here. If he were in the palace, he could use the power of the evil array, making it inconvenient for me to make a move.”

"I understand. Your Majesty will bring them to see you. Just be prepared."

"it is good."

After a pause, Dugu He added:
“Our deal remains unchanged. If Your Majesty refuses to take you to the forbidden area, I have a way to get you in.”

"I see."

Yunxi said she would not go back on her word.

The following evening, the king once again arrived at the summer palace with his personal guards. This time, however, he was accompanied by a squad of fully armed guards. Although these men had deliberately changed into inconspicuous armor, it was clear to anyone with eyes that they were royal guards.

This time, the king met Yunxi in the largest garden of the manor, with Dugu He, as usual, playing the role of a background character.

Ranxi looked at the king and his personal guards, who were dressed more ostentatiously than before, and asked with a smile:

"Has Your Majesty discovered anything?"

King Blazing Sun merely sighed before speaking:

"I am indeed nearing the end of my life, and I really do have the chance to become the ruler of a fallen kingdom."

Yunxi casually flicked her sleeve, picked up the white porcelain teacup on the stone table, took a sip, and slowly said:

"It's not that Your Majesty's health is bad because of my words; you should know your own body condition."

The bodyguard standing nearby was clearly more anxious; he even interjected:
"Otherworldly being, you can surely restore the King's health!"

Yunxi put down her teacup and said:

"Sure, but what will you offer in exchange?"

Just then, an arrogant voice entered the pavilion:
"Your Majesty, do not fall into the trap of the otherworldly people. Only I can cure your illness. She is only saying this to you to get away from you."

Dressed in a purple robe, with white hair and a youthful face, the Imperial Preceptor of You'an held a jade ruyi in his hand and entered the garden as if no one else was there. His eyes were fixed on Yun Xi, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

Yunxi also glanced at the Imperial Preceptor of You'an, her eyes flashing, and directly provoked him:
"So only you can cure the king's illness? Why did you have to wait until the king was terminally ill before you came forward? Why didn't you treat him in advance?"
Or perhaps the king's illness was caused by you; his protective royal aura is almost exhausted, how could his health possibly improve!

You'an wasn't annoyed that his sinister intentions had been exposed; instead, he scoffed and said:
"You should save your own life first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black aura shot out from the jade ruyi in his hand, heading straight for Yunxi's brow. This time, not only Yunxi saw it clearly, but the other three people present also saw it.

Unfortunately, the next second You'an's smug smile froze on his face, because the black aura was frozen and was rapidly dissipating.

My darlings, I stayed at my mom's house last night and didn't sleep well. I went back to my own place to catch up on sleep during the day, and only managed to get up in the afternoon to write. Here's my third update tonight. See you tomorrow, goodnight~
