The Ghost Doctor demonstrates his deadly, invisible mosquito poison to the Python King and his conspirators, solidifying their plan to assassinate the Emperor. Meanwhile, Chen Yang, with the help of Sun Xiaosheng's powerful flames, successfully refines the Greater Restoration Elixir.

Chen Yang carefully inspected the Greater Restoration Elixir and, upon ensuring there were no issues, he stood up.

"Alright, it’s time to go out. Jing Kang and the others must be impatiently waiting by now, right?"

Chen Yang put away the elixir and strode out.

He opened the entrance to the tunnel, arriving at the hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Jing Kang, Tu Qi, Qin Qingfeng, and others came one after the other.

They heard the sound of the tunnel opening, so they knew Chen Yang had come out.

"Chen Yang, my friend, has the elixir been completed?"

This time, even the usually steady Qin Qingfeng was anxious, eager to know whether Chen Yang had succeeded or not.

After all, the Greater Restoration Elixir involved too many important matters.

"It’s completed."

Knowing everyone was concerned, Chen Yang didn’t keep them in suspense and directly informed them of the result.

Upon hearing the word "completed," Jing Kang was overwhelmed with excitement.

"Great, truly wonderful. Our ancestors must be watching over us; Father is saved." Jing Kang’s eyes brimmed with tears and with a thud, he knelt before the shrine in the hall.

After expressing gratitude to his ancestors, he stood up again to thank Chen Yang.

"Brother Chen Yang, you’ve worked hard. You are indeed a benefactor to our Great Jing Dynasty." Jing Kang expressed solemnly.

Jing Kang’s gratitude made Chen Yang feel slightly uncomfortable.

"Jing Kang, you’re overreacting; there’s no need for this. Also, while the Greater Restoration Elixir is completed, it hasn’t healed your father yet. If you must give thanks, it would be better to wait until he’s healed." Chen Yang replied with a smile.

Tu Qi was also excited at this moment, but he agreed with Chen Yang, saying, "Yes, Brother Jing Kang, it’s too early to celebrate now. We should wait until after your father is healed tomorrow."

"Your Highness, Crown Prince, the most crucial thing now is to get the Python King to agree to tomorrow’s treatment."

"The entire Imperial Palace is under the Python King’s control right now. If he doesn’t agree, all efforts will be in vain."

Qin Qingfeng quickly calmed down and pointed out the next move Jing Kang needed to make.

Hearing Qin Qingfeng’s words, Jing Kang snapped out of it.

Indeed.

It wasn’t the time for celebration.

This was merely the first step of success; there were still two or three steps left.

"Indeed, solving this issue is the priority now. Father has little time; we cannot waste a moment." Jing Kang realized, then quickly said, "I will go find the Python King to discuss Father’s treatment; Elder Qin, Brother Chen Yang, please wait for my update in the Eastern Palace."

"Yes, Crown Prince, go ahead. We’ll await your word." Qin Qingfeng nodded, then watched as Crown Prince Jing Kang left.

After the Crown Prince departed, Qin Qingfeng turned his gaze to Chen Yang.

"Chen Yang, my friend, how confident are you in treating the Emperor’s illness?"

Qin Qingfeng, ordinarily composed in handling any matter, was particularly concerned about this issue.

This was because Chen Yang’s ability to heal the Old Emperor held significant stakes.

It could determine the future of the Great Jing Dynasty and their life or death thereafter; it must not be taken lightly.

Chen Yang pondered slightly, then said, "It’s still the previous estimation, around fifty percent, and that’s under the condition that no one interferes."

"If the Python King makes any moves, then it’s uncertain."

"Having fifty percent is good; rest assured about the Python King, with my presence, there shouldn’t be any problems. At that time, you just focus on treating the Emperor." Qin Qingfeng felt slightly relieved hearing Chen Yang’s fifty percent certainty.

A fifty percent chance in treating reversed meridians was impressive.

He dared not wish for more certainty.

"Alright." Chen Yang nodded slightly, then said no more.

They spent the following time waiting together in the Eastern Palace.

After approximately two hours, Jing Kang returned.

Bringing back good news.

The Python King agreed to the treatment.

However, the Python King insisted that treatment must begin tomorrow morning, not now.

"Why wait until tomorrow morning? Can a matter of treating illness be delayed?" Tu Qi asked, puzzled.

Chen Yang and Qin Qingfeng felt the same.

The Old Emperor’s condition was already dire, with the risk of not holding on at any moment.

Every delay meant reduced chances.

"I don’t know what he’s thinking; he’s just adamant about tomorrow morning, insisting on gathering the civil and military officials together. I had no choice but to agree." Jing Kang sighed.

Currently, the entire palace is under the Python King’s control, and although Jing Kang is the Crown Prince, he has limited authority.

All he could do was adhere to the Python King’s arrangements.

"Such ignorance! How can the Emperor’s condition be postponed?" Qin Qingfeng’s anger flared as he slammed the table, seemingly intent on confronting the Python King himself.

Seeing this, Chen Yang stopped Qin Qingfeng and advised, "Village Chief Qin, confronting the Python King achieves nothing; he won’t heed you. Since he insists on tomorrow morning, let’s wait until tomorrow morning."

"It’s getting late now; a few hours—shouldn’t affect much."

Chen Yang had his reasons for preventing Qin Qingfeng from going to the Python King.

As of now, the Python King should be unaware of the Old Emperor’s precarious state—and can only hold out for at most a day or two.

If Qin Qingfeng sought the Python King, wouldn’t that reveal their urgent desire to treat the Old Emperor?

The Python King, realizing this, wouldn’t just refuse any advance request but might even force further delays just to cause problems for them.

That would be counterproductive.

Thus, the best course was to remain silent and wait for tomorrow.

"The Python King’s intent is indeed vile." Qin Qingfeng also realized this. Though upset, he wasn’t truly impulsive enough to confront the Python King.

That night, no one left.

They stayed in the hall, silently passing the time.

Chen Yang kept his eyes closed, contemplating countless times the treatment process, evaluating potential situations.

If such situations arose, how would he respond?

He didn’t know how many times he went through the reasoning.

Finally, when the sound of three chimes rang out, he halted his thoughts and slowly opened his eyes.

The sound signaled the summoning of civil and military officials to court.

Which meant it was time to treat the Emperor.

"Finally, the moment has arrived." Jing Kang had long anticipated this; hearing the chimes, he immediately stood up excitedly, eager to lead everyone to Taihe Hall.

At this moment, however, Qin Qingfeng stopped Jing Kang.

"Your Highness, Crown Prince, it’s better to wait a moment."

"Elder Qin, why is that?" Crown Prince Jing Kang expressed confusion.

"With the chimes sounding, the officials have just begun arriving at the palace. If we go now, it’s still early—not appropriate. Let’s wait until more officials have arrived, it would be just right." Qin Qingfeng suggested.

"Alright, then we wait a bit longer." Jing Kang understood that urgency wouldn’t help.

Arriving too early wouldn’t allow them to start immediately; better to wait in the Eastern Palace.

It maintains dignity and displays confidence.

Going later is better than going earlier.

Thus, they remained in the Eastern Palace for about another twenty minutes.

Sensing the time was right, they left the Eastern Palace for Taihe Hall.

Understanding the day’s importance, they didn’t go with just the four of them.

Instead, they brought everyone they could, nearly two hundred people.

If Chen Yang succeeded in healing the Old Emperor, all would rejoice.
