Amidst everyones anticipation, the Great Xia Emperor swallowed the elixir of immortality. However, after consuming it, nothing seed to change. One curious prince asked, Father, after taking the elixir of immortality, do you feel any different? Is your health improved?
The Great Xia Emperor furrowed his brow and replied, I feel It seems like theres no change at all! Its just that this elixir its incredibly hard to swallow, its foul-slling, and its stuck in my throat. I had to force it down!
Everyone couldnt help but look towards the unscrupulous Daoist, hoping he could explain. No change is quite normal! The unscrupulous Daoist calmly said, No herb or dicine can work instantly; even divine dicine is the sa. Your Majesty has now taken the divine dicine, and it will gradually improve your health, extend your lifespan, and restore your youthful appearance. Your Majesty only needs to be patient!
I see, the Imperial Teachers words make perfect sense! Haha The Great Xia Emperor burst into laughter.
I see, I was worried for no reason just now! So, divine dicine also needs ti to take effect; it wont happen instantly!
The Imperial Teacher is right! Your Majestys dragon body is currently unsteady and lacking nourishnt, so it needs gradual adjustnt, without harming the dragon body!
After listening to the Imperial Teacher, I feel much relieved!
Everyone praised and comforted the Great Xia Emperor.
The more the Great Xia Emperor listened, the more cheerful he beca, his complexion improving, and his spirits lifting. The unscrupulous Daoist accompanied him with a smile but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
No trouble is good! The elixir turned out like this; to be honest, he didnt know if it would work, what its specific effects were, or if it might have any adverse effects. Regardless of the outco, he could buy ti.
Just then, the Great Xia Emperors laughter ca to an abrupt halt, and he clutched his stomach, his eyes widened in pain. Everyone panicked, and people rushed over.
Your Majesty Your Majesty, whats happening to you?
Your Majesty, whats going on? Dont scare !
Quick, summon the royal physician! Get the imperial doctor here!
The Great Xia Emperor groaned in pain, I I have a terrible stomachache its unbearable
Once again, everyone involuntarily turned their gaze towards the unscrupulous Daoist. After all, the Emperor had just consud the elixir of immortality, and now this was happening. Among those present, the unscrupulous Daoist understood the situation the best.
Inside, the unscrupulous Daoist was in a state of panic.
Unexpected turn of events!
It seems that things have taken an unexpected turn for the worse!
The unscrupulous Daoist shouted loudly, Everyone, dont panic; this is a normal reaction!
Normal? Everyone was bewildered. The unscrupulous Daoist asked, Your Majesty, do you currently have an unbearable stomachache and an urge to, well, relieve yourself?
The Great Xia Emperor, clutching his stomach in pain, nodded, What the Imperial Teacher said is true! Right now I do have an urge to relieve myself. Is this normal?
Thats correct, Your Majesty! The unscrupulous Daoist confidently stated, This indicates that the elixir of immortality is improving your body, essentially purifying it, and now its coming out naturally. So, all you need to do now is to relieve yourself as usual!
I see, I must relieve myself now. Prepare quickly! The Great Xia Emperor called out.
Yes, Your Majesty!
With the assistance of two eunuchs, the Great Xia Emperor entered the palace and closed the door behind him. A eunuch brought a chamber pot and a stool for the Emperor to use.
Others patiently waited outside. In no ti, an unbearable stench emanated from the palace, filling the entire room.
The surrounding courtiers were overwheld by the sll but dared not cover their noses. After all, it was the Emperor who was relieving himself. Who would dare to complain?
Be careful, or heads might roll.
Before long, a young eunuch ca out carrying the foul-slling chamber pot. The unscrupulous Daoist stopped him and asked, How is the Emperors condition? The young eunuch reported, Reporting to the Imperial Teacher, after relieving himself, His Majesty is feeling much better and more energetic!
The unscrupulous Daoist secretly breathed a sigh of relief; this was a good sign. It was probably just a case of food poisoning, and with a clean flush, everything should be finenothing too serious.
However, at this mont, the Emperors personal eunuch hurriedly rushed out and exclaid, Xiao Lin, His Majesty needs to continue relieving himself! Bring the chamber pot back quickly!
Yes, Liu Gonggong! The young eunuch rushed back in. After a while, another unbearable sll once again wafted from the palace.
The officials outside the palace were subjected to another round of tornt.
It was sour and pungent, beyond imagination! Many people turned green in the face.
The unscrupulous Daoist appeared calm on the surface, but deep down, he felt anxious and uncertain. Two rounds of this, each worse than the previouscould there be a problem? And at a ti like this? It could be life-threatening!
Although the unscrupulous Daoist maintained his composure outwardly, he was quite anxious. So, when the young eunuch brought the chamber pot out again, he imdiately stopped him and asked, How is His Majestys condition now?
Others gathered around to listen.
The young eunuch reported, Imperial Teacher and esteed gentlen, after relieving himself twice, His Majestys stomachache has subsided, but his complexion is sowhat pale, and he feels a bit weak! Everyone once again turned their gaze towards the unscrupulous Daoist, hoping for an explanation.
Stay calm, everyone, no need to panic! The unscrupulous Daoist exclaid, This is perfectly normal! His Majesty is undergoing detoxification, and the dicines effects are a bit intense. His Majesty is feeling weak because of it. But rest assured, as long as the toxins are expelled, he will be fine!
I see, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, at this mont, the chief eunuch rushed out in a hurry, saying, Quick, bring in the chamber pot again! His Majesty needs to relieve himself once more!
So, the young eunuch rushed back inside to assist.
Before long, another wave of unbearable stench drifted from the palace. Many courtiers were left nauseated and green-faced. So even fainted on the spot, foaming at the mouth.
Then, another eunuch ca out.
But this ti, it wasnt the young eunuch; it was the chief eunuch. He anxiously grabbed the unscrupulous Daoists hand and said, Imperial Teacher, His Majestys condition doesnt seem quite right! Even if we go by what you said, that His Majesty is detoxifying after taking the divine dicine, he has expelled quite a lot already. How co its not over yet? Right now, His Majesty has fainted, and his face is as pale as paper! If this continues, Im worried
The unscrupulous Daoist was now in a state of panic.
There was definitely sothing wrong with this elixir!
But he couldnt speak out; otherwise, he would lose his head! Dont worry; this is entirely normal! The unscrupulous Daoist was inwardly terrified, but he had to maintain a composed facade. He smiled and said, You see, His Majesty may seem weak now, but these are just symptoms! In reality, His Majestys body has undergone a trendous transformation, restoring his youthful vitality, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes. Please remain calm and await the outco!
A plea for understanding
Oh dear, but we still have so concerns! How about this, Imperial Teacher? Since you understand the effects of this dicine the best, why dont you accompany us inside? This way, everyone can feel more at ease! the chief eunuch suggested.
The unscrupulous Daoist was terrified.
How could he go inside?
He was still hoping for an opportunity to escape! In this vast world, his life was paramount! If sothing really happened to the Emperor, he wouldnt have a chance to run!
Sir, theres no need for that, right? I can wait outside! The unscrupulous Daoist was sweating.
At that mont, weak cries were heard from inside the palace. The chief eunuchs face changed, and he grabbed the unscrupulous Daoists hand, rushing inside, saying, Imperial Teacher, theres an ergency! Co with us!
Upon entering, the unscrupulous Daoist imdiately saw the Great Xia Emperor.
At this mont, the Great Xia Emperor was being supported by two young eunuchs, seated bare-bottod on a stool. His complexion was as pale as paper, even his lips had turned white, and his breath was extrely weak, resembling soone on the verge of passing away.
The unscrupulous Daoist was feeling extrely anxious. In less than the ti it takes to brew a cup of tea, the Great Xia Emperor had transford into this state!
Upon seeing the unscrupulous Daoist entering, the Great Xia Emperors eyes flickered with a faint glimr. He weakly asked, Imperial Teacher, whats happening? Why have I been continuously relieving myself since I took the divine elixir? Is there anything you can do to ease my pain? The unscrupulous Daoist had no solution. He was completely at a loss. All he could do was bring in comforting words to appease the Emperor.
Upon hearing this, the Great Xia Emperor did feel sowhat reassured. He weakly replied, Listening to your words, Imperial Teacher, I do feel my body has indeed lightened considerably, and I feel much younger
The unscrupulous Daoist inwardly remarked, Lightened, you say? Your body has lightened considerably after youve relieved yourself so much!
Your Majesty, rest assured, endure a little longer, and this pain will soon pass! Your body will undergo a rebirth, becoming even stronger than that of a young person! the unscrupulous Daoist replied, his voice trembling with anxiety.
Alright, alright
But just then, the Great Xia Emperors eyes widened, and the light in them suddenly disappeared.
Then, his entire body slumped, utterly devoid of strength. As an innate-level expert, the unscrupulous Daoist distinctly sensed that the Emperors vital energy had ceased.
In other words, he had died, passed away.
The unscrupulous Daoists body also went limp, drenched in sweat. Disaster had struck!
The accompanying eunuchs were thrown into panic. Your Majesty! Your Majesty, whats happening?
Your Majesty, please speak, say sothing!
#YourMajesty
Among them, the chief eunuch extended his finger and touched under the Great Xia Emperors nose, only to discover there was no breath!
He was utterly terrified, his world spinning, and he staggered.
If the Emperor had stopped breathing, did that an he didnt dare to imagine. He desperately clung to the last straw of hope and anxiously asked, Imperial Teacher, what is happening? Why has His Majesty stopped breathing? The unscrupulous Daoist waved his hand in despair, Dont ask , call the imperial physician quickly; perhaps theres still a chance!
That night, dozens of imperial physicians rushed to the palace, working tirelessly through the night, but they couldnt do anything. The Great Xia Emperor had passed away.
