Chapter 492: Chapter 491: Why Can I Never Surpass Her?
Feng Wuya, after taking the antidote provided by Chu Qianli, vomited a lot of black blood.
Originally, Long Xinghe thought, he surely wouldn’t survive.
However, much to his surprise, after expelling the black blood, Feng Wuya’s pulse actually became slightly steadier.
Yet, among many doctors at the Princess Residence, not a single one could cure him.
He was deeply poisoned, and most importantly, he had severe damage to his heart meridian—it was adding frost to snow.
In such a case, who would dare to treat him?
Failing to treat would be a death sentence, and so would be unsuccessful treatment—either way, it was death.
All the doctors in the Princess Residence were scared out of their wits, feeling as though their heads could be lost at any time.
This situation persisted until the arrival of Chu Qianli.
As soon as Chu Qianli arrived, she immediately entered Feng Wuya’s room and ordered Tie Xin to drive everyone out.
Even Long Xinghe was "asked" outside the room.
At this moment, Long Xinghe stood outside the door, pacing back and forth, anxious and uneasy.
If she really was Chu Qianli, perhaps Wuya would have hope of survival.
Long Xinghe knew better than anyone how impressive Chu Qianli’s medical skills were in the 21st century.
Time slowly ticked by.
Not knowing how much time had passed, finally at a little past four in the morning, the room’s door was opened.
"How is it?" Long Xinghe looked at Tie Xin, about to enter as she stepped out.
Tie Xin hurriedly said, "Miss Chu said that no one should disturb the Prince right now, Princess, please... please consider the Prince’s well-being!"
Long Xinghe didn’t dare to barge in, and, in fact, she quickly took two steps back.
From the 21st century to this era, she never felt herself inferior to Chu Qianli, except for one thing, and that was something she acknowledged!
She really was not as good as Chu Qianli.
That was, the ability to save lives.
"Tie Xin, what exactly is Wuya’s condition now, can you tell me?"
Jiang Tao, standing by, felt a pang of sorrow upon seeing the Princess like this.
Their Princess had never shown such humility to anyone but the Empress.
Tie Xin leaned in and told the truth: "He hasn’t woken up yet, and the poison inside his body has not been completely cleared..."
"Then..."
"Miss Chu said the current situation is temporarily stable, most of the toxins have been cleared, but the Prince’s body is too weak, Miss Chu can’t administer strong medicine, so it’s still uncertain if the Prince is out of danger."
"Does that mean there’s still a risk to his life at any moment?" Jiang Tao’s heart sank as he looked at Long Xinghe.
The Grand Princess looked ashen, truly distressed.
Tie Xin whispered, "We need to observe for a few more days; over these days, Miss Chu must give acupuncture to the Prince daily to detoxify. She says this is the only way right now."
"Taking medicine might be too much for the Prince to handle."
Long Xinghe asked no further questions.
Tie Xin went to fetch warm water, and Jiang Tao immediately commanded someone to accompany him to see if any help was needed.
After they left, Jiang Tao, looking at Long Xinghe, said softly, "Princess, it’s getting chilly, you haven’t slept all night, perhaps..."
"How can I rest assured when Wuya’s condition has not yet stabilized?"
She couldn’t leave now, at least, not until Chu Qianli came out.
Tie Xin entered with the warm water.
This time, almost two hours went by without a sign of him.
Until the break of dawn.
Chu Qianli finally opened the door, facing Long Xinghe, who looked just as exhausted as herself.
"How is it?" Long Xinghe asked.
"I can only temporarily stabilize his heartbeat, but his body is too weakened. The next three days will be crucial," Chu Qianli eyed her.
Long Xinghe was also looking at her.
After a while, Long Xinghe said faintly, "I have something to tell you."
She turned around and walked toward the study not far away.
Chu Qianli instructed Tie Xin to guard Feng Wuya well, then followed behind her.
Just as she entered and closed the door behind her, a murderous aura attacked from behind.
But Chu Qianli was not in a hurry; she turned around to look at the gun aimed straight at her heart.
She curled her lips into a smile, "Desert Black Hawk, I’m really curious, how did you manage to bring it to this era?"
"So, you’re finally willing to admit that you are Ali?"
"Does admitting it matter? The key point is what you think of it."
Facing the barrel of her gun, Chu Qianli didn’t avoid it; instead, she walked towards her.
"Senior sister, you’ve always been very confident in your own judgment, to the point of arrogance.
No matter how certain you are, explanations are useless."
Long Xinghe said nothing, only the fingers holding the gun tightened slightly.
The index finger rested on the trigger.
Chu Qianli sneered, "Senior sister, sometimes I’d advise you not to be too confident."
Just as her words ended, she suddenly turned around.
Bang!
Long Xinghe was completely dumbfounded.
A burning pain spread from her arm; it was the wound left by a graze from the bullet.
Not deep, just a little flesh wound.
Chu Qianli’s marksmanship was still as accurate as before, accurate to a frightening degree.
And her gun had already fallen to the ground, its whereabouts unknown.
Chu Qianli held the familiar short gun in her hand, with smoke still rising from the muzzle.
"Why..."
"I not only have a gun, my bullets are endless, while you, at most, only have a few left, right?"
Chu Qianli narrowed her eyes, staring at the Desert Black Hawk lying in the corner.
"Princess!" Hearing the noise, Jiang Tao burst through the door, double blades in hand, eyeing Chu Qianli warily.
"Princess, you’re injured!"
Should he take Chu Qianli down?
But right now, they didn’t seem to be fighting.
Yet the Princess was indeed injured.
"Guards!" Jiang Tao shouted commandingly.
But before the guards could rush in, Long Xinghe gestured, "Get out!"
"Princess..."
"I told you to get out!"
Jiang Tao was startled, and after another glance at Chu Qianli, had no choice but to retreat with the guards.
Long Xinghe ignored the injury on her arm, those icy eyes fixated on Chu Qianli’s face.
Why?
Ever since the 21st century, she could never surpass her!
Every time anyone mentioned the number one person of the Wolf Domain, it was always Chu Qianli. As for her, Jiang Xinghe, she could only ever be second!
Now, in this era, she had become the Grand Princess, second to none but one above ten thousand. Yet now, in Wuya’s heart, it was her he thought of; even in their battle, she was no match for her!
In the end, she only had a gun that might have given her a chance to defeat her, but unexpectedly, she had only a few bullets left, while Chu Qianli had endless ammunition!
Why exactly did she forever stand above her head?
Long Xinghe couldn’t accept it, she was not reconciled!
She would not submit, even in death!
In those icy eyes, a frantic killing intent emerged, turning her entire being into a personification of death!
Chu Qianli put away her gun, fixing her gaze on those eyes that seemed to spew fire.
She said coldly, "Just because you can’t bear to lose to me, that’s why you schemed to have me killed? Jiang Xinghe, do you think you could become the number one person of the Wolf Domain if I were dead?"
