Chapter 1218: Chapter 1217: If I Do Not Die Today

Chu Qianli, accompanied by Lan Qing, left Lingjiu Hall and headed north.

That was the direction of the Cold Palace.

Today, while aimlessly wandering with the token, she discovered this place.

It is said that the Cold Palace is a highly dishonorable place for the virtuous; therefore, that fellow apprentice probably wouldn’t follow her here.

After all, members of the Lan Family believe themselves to be exceptionally pure.

"Do you mind? We are about to enter the Cold Palace." She hadn’t forgotten that Lan Qing was also from the Lan Family.

Lan Qing was only concerned about one thing: "Is it safe?"

"I don’t know, but for now, we have nowhere else to go."

Lan Qing was severely injured, occasionally vomiting blood along the way.

If she hadn’t been so attentive and prepared with tissues in advance, this bloodstain might have drawn people over.

Chu Qianli helped Lan Qing over the high walls of the Cold Palace and swiftly entered.

Quiet.

Quiet as a ghost town.

The Emperor has no Harem, so there was not a single person in the Cold Palace.

"Take this Medicine Pill and rest here for a while; I’ll go take care of the blood scent."

Without waiting for Lan Qing’s response, she pried open his lips and stuffed the Medicine Pill inside.

Then, she leaped away and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Even taking care of the blood scent, this girl is indeed very meticulous.

Even Lan Qing might not have thought of these things.

Soon Chu Qianli returned, supporting Lan Qing as they entered a pitch-dark room.

Lan Qing could see nothing; his eyes were ruined by venom.

When Chu Qianli lit a lamp and examined his eyes, she couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

"Besides practicing the Lan Family’s cultivation methods, our fellow apprentice has also been secretly studying the art of poison-making, which is why our Master has always disliked him, deeming his heart misguided."

What he really meant to say was that after years of practicing poisoning, his fellow apprentice’s skills had become formidable.

His eyes were likely hopeless.

Yet he held back from saying this out loud, worried Chu Qianli would think he was wallowing in self-pity.

But miraculously, Chu Qianli understood his meaning.

"Don’t lose hope; recently injured eyes still have a slight chance."

Lan Qing was somewhat surprised: "Really?"

"The venom is indeed potent, the success rate isn’t very high, and the process will be very painful. National Advisor, can you endure it?"

"I can."

Simple, firm.

No one wants to have their life destroyed like this.

More so, since his fellow apprentice harbors ulterior motives and has seized this opportunity to chase him out of Lingjiu Hall, clearly aiming to take his place.

And the Emperor has always been on good terms with him.

After replacing him, the next target would surely be the Emperor.

He cannot fall.

If he falls, the Emperor will be even more isolated and helpless.

"I can handle it, use any medicine you have, no matter the odds, as long as there’s the slightest chance, I won’t give up."

He waved his hand in mid-air.

Chu Qianli grasped his hand.

This time, though Lan Qing subconsciously resisted, he eventually accepted.

Holding her hand back.

"Miss Chu, I’m unable to help you find your father tonight due to my incapacity. If I recover, I promise you, no matter the cost, I will find your father for you."

"National Advisor, don’t speak like that. If it weren’t for helping me tonight, you wouldn’t have been injured like this. If you weren’t hurt, he probably couldn’t have done much to you."

Ultimately, she had a role in tonight’s events as well.

Chu Qianli took out the medicine box and while looking at his lusterless eyes said, "There’s no need for further words; I’ll start with the treatment now. It will be very painful, so brace yourself."

...

People outside were still unaware of Lan Qing’s disappearance.

Upon receiving the news, Chu Jiangnan, despite feeling unwell, hurried over immediately.
