Chapter 259 Begging her to save people
When Su Muyao took the Empress's pulse, she discovered that the Empress's physical condition was quite serious. She was deficient in qi and blood. Although she looked energetic, she actually had many old injuries.

These were not difficult. Su Muyao injected her wood-type supernatural power into the Empress's body to heal her internal injuries.

But for some reason, when she injected her wood-type ability, she found that the effect was very weak.

Despite having a level nine wood-type ability, she could recover immediately even from severe injuries.

However, the Queen's body was like a leaky container, and no amount of wood-based supernatural power could be injected into it to achieve good healing results.

This made Su Muyao's expression change.

The pulse test didn't reveal anything either.

"System, what's going on?"

Su Muyao had no choice but to summon the system.

Since she formed a bond with Shen Ci'an and her strength reached level nine, the system also upgraded accordingly.

In some cases, the system should be able to detect it.

"Host, don't worry, let me investigate first."

The Empress could feel a warm power flowing into her body, a gentle and comfortable sensation that made her feel lighter.

But in just a moment, she felt that her body could no longer hold onto this warm power. It was as if this warm power had been swallowed up by something, and then her body became weak again.

She knew her own physical condition, and all she could think about was paving the way for her before she died, removing all obstacles.

Her eyebrows and eyes resembled those of her grandfather.

Thinking of him, who was exceptional in both appearance and ability, a flood of emotions welled up in her eyes.

She only realized she had fallen in love with him after meeting him, being saved by him, and being helped by him to secure her position.

He was the only person she had ever loved, someone she looked up to like a god.

She was fortunate to have a son with him, and now she has a granddaughter.

She will definitely protect their granddaughter.

The Empress looked at Su Muyao, yet it was as if she were looking at someone else through Su Muyao.

Su Muyao was unaware of these things; she was communicating with the system using her thoughts.

After examining the system, it exclaimed in alarm, "Host, the Empress has been afflicted by a Gu worm. It's a very peculiar Gu worm that lives inside the Empress's body, devouring her vital energy and strength. So no matter how you treat the Empress, it's useless."

"The imperial physicians prescribed medicine to nourish the Empress, but it was no use; the medicinal power was all consumed by the Gu worms."

"The reason you can't tell from the pulse is because you used evil and unorthodox witchcraft."

"But how could such a thing exist now? It belongs to the category of ancient evil magic."

"The conditions for using Gu poison are extremely strict; it is only possible to use it on the closest relatives."

Su Muyao was extremely shocked upon hearing the system's words.

"Gu insect?"

During the apocalypse, she had seen records of Gu worms in some ancient books.

"It is said that Gu worms can control people's hearts."

The system explained, "Not only that, different Gu worms have different abilities, but the person who uses the Gu must have extremely powerful Gu skills and cultivate powerful Gu worms before they can be used on the orcs to achieve their goal."

"Otherwise, if the Gu-casting beastman isn't powerful and the Gu worms aren't powerful, it's all useless. Moreover, some Gu worms aren't easy to cultivate, so Gu worms might be quite precious to the Gu-casting beastman."

"Controlling these things requires many stringent conditions, but I don't really understand the specifics."

"Because I've never seen anything like this before, this is quite an eye-opener."

Su Muyao listened, her expression growing increasingly serious. "Then how do I solve this?"

The system said, "Your wood-type ability can't cure this. To cure this kind of Gu worm, it's estimated that only the Moon Clan of Southern Xinjiang can cure it. They should have belonged to the Witch Clan in ancient times. Their bloodline is special and they can cure this."

Upon hearing the name of the Moon Clan, Su Muyao frowned; she really didn't want to deal with them.

Su Muyao seemed to have thought of something and said, "The Mei family can communicate with spirits, so can't they cure the Gu worms?"

She remembered hearing people say that the Mei family and the Yue family were similar.

The system said, "They are different, completely different. Their bloodline systems and abilities are all different. If the person who cast the Gu worm cannot remove this evil thing, then we can only turn to the Moon Clan."

Su Muyao's expression changed several times; she didn't know how to tell the Empress.

The Empress, seeing Su Muyao's expression, roughly understood what was going on. She reached out and patted the back of Su Muyao's hand, shaking her head at her.

Now is not the time to talk about anything.

Su Muyao was stunned for a moment, feeling that the Empress understood everything.

Furthermore, the fact that the situation is now under control indicates that the Queen made preparations in advance.

The Empress did make preparations, but there wasn't enough time, so it took some time for the Xuanjia Guards to arrive. Fortunately, there were no major casualties.

However, some injuries were too severe for even the imperial physicians to treat.

"Miss Su, I've heard that your medical skills can bring the dead back to life. Please, I beg you, save my wife."

One of the males, disregarding everything else, looked at Su Muyao with pleading eyes; this was his only glimmer of hope.

Su Muyao knew that if the wife died, the beastly husband would die with her.

Not all noblewomen are willing to break free from the bond of life and death; a life-and-death bond is the norm.

Su Muyao couldn't bear to see so many males perish along with the females.

"As long as Miss Su can save my wife, the Han family will definitely repay this kindness in the future."

The Han family is also a first-class noble family, so Su Muyao is not at a loss in saving the Han family.

Besides, she would have saved the person even without those words.

These people present were all important beastmen of the Dongning Beast Kingdom, especially noble families. The death of one of them could cause internal strife and turmoil within the entire family, so no mistakes could be made.

"Han Shoufu is too kind."

This female is the head of the Han family, and the man speaking is her first beast husband.

The Han family was also a first-class aristocratic family.

Su Muyao stepped forward, squatted down, and injected her wood-type ability. She saw that the wound on the chest of the Han family head had stopped bleeding and was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Han family head, who had been keeping his eyes closed, slowly opened them.

She thought she was going to die.

When she opened her eyes and looked at the wound on her chest, she didn't even see it.

"This...is this?"

Han Shoufu looked at Su Muyao gratefully, "Thank you, Miss Su."

"My lady, it was Miss Su who saved you and us."

The Han family head immediately expressed his gratitude to Su Muyao.

The crowd then snapped out of their shock.

"Healing ability."

"My God, it's a powerful healing ability."

"No, it's a level nine wood-type ability. Wood-type abilities also have healing effects."

As everyone recovered from their shock, some of the orcs whose injuries were too severe to be treated begged Su Muyao for help.

Su Muyao looked at the Empress, who nodded to her. Su Muyao did not refuse and stepped forward to help.

Level 9 superpowers can heal people very quickly.

At this moment, everyone looked at Su Muyao with fervent expressions, and couldn't help but want to kneel down and worship her.

Seeing Duan Tingxuan's expression, the Duan family also wanted to ask Su Muyao for help, but their faces turned pale and then red, and they couldn't say a word.

They once forced Su Muyao to release Duan Tingxuan, saying that the two families would have no further relationship. How can they still have the nerve to beg others now?

But Duan Tingshu was too young to know these things; he only knew that his brother couldn't get into trouble.

He stepped forward and knelt down immediately, pleading, "Miss Su, please, I beg you, save my brother."

“I know the Duan family and my brother have wronged you, and we have no face to ask you to save our brother, but... but I only have one brother. If you save my brother, my life will belong to Miss Su. I will do anything Miss Su asks me to do.”

The twelve-year-old boy looked at Su Muyao with pleading eyes, filled with a desperate, reckless courage.
