Ling Tian knew more or less what old Dai had.
Chi deficiency and apparently an internal injury. Deficiency of Chi in people would cause the body's defenses to weaken over time and die from any disease that came along. The hidden internal wound in his body could be the result of a fight in the past that failed to heal completely.
Ling Tian had a very high level of knowledge in medicine. Because he was running for his life without rest when his cultivation was not very high, he had to heal himself from any wound he got in his battles. He wouldn't go to someone to heal himself, so he would avoid being found out about his whereabouts. Once his cultivation reached higher realms, he spent some time accumulating good karma in many places, so inevitably, he helped countless people, as well as observed endless diseases and injuries, hence his knowledge.
Ling Tian continued to observe Master Gi's movements.
Master Gi took old Dai's wrist and held it for several minutes. He then took out dozens of silver needles and began to slowly and carefully place them around the old Dai's stomach. Old Dai's face lightened slightly, although one could still see that his expression was still sore.
Ling Tian shook his head.
"Master Gi, the cauldron is here. Also the medicinal plants." Some attendees brought a cauldron while others brought some wooden boxes containing a variety of medicinal plants inside.
"Master Gi... How is my father?" the gentleman asked when he saw that the blood coming out of his father's mouth decreased until only a thin line of blood was left flowing at the corner of his lips.
"Don't worry, Wuyun, your father will be fine. He seems to have a wound in his stomach, which makes him suffer from pain and spit up blood." Master Gi responded while standing up and directing his attention to the medicinal herbs. After selecting some, he began to refine them in the cauldron that had been brought to him.
The assistants were amazed and observed Master Gi's movements. Even the two women who entered at the end were no exception. To see a Great Master Alchemist preparing elixirs was rare, as the masters did not allow them to observe how they prepared the elixirs. Everything was done within the alchemical association.
It took Master Gi almost an hour to prepare the medicinal liquid. He looked very concentrated when refining the medicinal plants. He was placing one plant at a time. Then he poured it into a very high quality transparent porcelain bottle. Master Gi looked very tired when some drops of sweat came down his forehead.
"Medium Grade Heavenly Elixir!"
A voice of wonder was heard among the people gathered.
"What!"
"He made a mid-grade heavenly elixir in less than an hour?"
"It was to be expected... Being a Great Master Alchemist his experience is beyond any Master Alchemist."
"Master Gi is amazing."
The eyes of the sacred maiden who was with the other woman were slightly enlightened by the result of Master Gi, seeming to have found a hope.
Master Gi approached the old Dai, raised the back of his head and gave him the medicinal liquid to drink. He had not yet removed the needles.
"That will be enough. The elixir I made will help him heal his stomach and fully recover in time." Master Gi spoke with a hint of arrogance. No one had noticed, except two people.
Several minutes later, old Dai still had his eyes closed.
Coargh!
When Master Gi was about to speak, old Dai began to spit blood. His pale complexion worsened even more, and a larger trail of blood began to flow from his mouth.
"But what-!?" Master Gi was surprised and checked the body of old Dai.
He took out one more silver needle and inserted it near his heart, managing to stop a little of the blood coming out of his mouth.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ "It seems that old Dai's wound is very serious..." shaking his head, Master Gi continued: "At most he would only last a few more days... there's nothing that can be done..."
Old Dai's son, Rong Wuyun, wanted to say something but in the end he couldn't speak. The helplessness in his eyes could be seen. Even his daughter, was a little sad.
Even another master alchemist who was there, checked the old man's body and also agreed with Master Gi.
The atmosphere was somewhat gloomy when they heard Master Gi's explanation.
"You are wrong. He's not suffering from some wound in his stomach..."
A flat voice sounded in the room. Everyone turned to see the origin of this voice.
They soon realized that the voice was coming from a young man behind them.
Ling Tian had removed his spell of invisibility long ago, as they were all focused on what Master Gi was doing.
Master Gi frowned: "Young man, I don't know what you're trying to say, but I've checked his condition and he couldn't hold out for long... please don't speak if you don't know what's going on."
All present denied with their heads while a contempt passed through their eyes.
Ling Tian ignored Master Gi's comment, while he slowly approached and took the wrist of old Dai. In less than ten seconds, he knew exactly and had confirmed what was happening to his body.
Master Gi was offended by Ling Tian's behavior, when someone had ignored him before? He had always been very respected wherever he went, even the Lord of the City would still have to be a little polite to him.
Just when Master Gi wanted to speak, he was interrupted by Ling Tian: "His stomach is still fine, it's his kidneys and liver that are failing-"
"Ignorant! You think you're a Master Alchemist?! You're just a kid who hasn't even grown his hair and you think you know everything?!" Master Gi grimly scolded Ling Tian while he realized something: "Do you think that if you try to show off, you will attract the attention of these young ladies? If that's what you're thinking, you'd better leave!"
When he said the latter, everyone in the place thought Master Gi was right, so they couldn't have had a dislike for Ling Tian. Wanting to show off to get the princess' attention?
Even the two young women there couldn't help but feel a little contempt for him.
Ling Tian looked weakly at Master Gi. He was too vague to deal with such arrogant and proud people. Although he might well leave without interfering, he still wanted to help this person. After all, it was a human life that was at stake. Moreover, if any of his loved ones were in such a situation, he wanted anyone to help them.
Ling Tian looked at Rong Wuyun and said indifferently, "Do you want to save your father? Then let me cure him... if I cannot, I will accept any consequences. If not, then I will leave."
Rong Wuyun had moved closer to his father's body, fearing that the young man in front of him would do something stupid by trying to show off. When he heard what Ling Tian said, he hesitated at first, but knowing that there was no longer any way, he could not help but hold on to the last light of hope.
Rong Wuyun nodded in agreement.
Ling Tian took another set of silver needles that was nearby.
In the presence of everyone, he unexpectedly pulled out all the needles Master Gi had placed in the old Dai's abdomen.
The blood began to flow continuously much more from the old man's mouth.
