Chapter 727
Chapter 727
"This is a restricted area of Dandingsi, who is so presumptuous?!" The chief alchemist Yu Luo, holding a jade slip engraved with pharmacology, rushed out from the corridor filled with medicinal mist with dozens of medical assistants.
The collapsed rooms in the distance were still emitting cold air, frost flowers condensed on the broken glazed tiles, and several precious spiritual plants turned into ice sculptures under Jingliu's sword energy.
The tip of Jingliu Sword trembled slightly, but the cold light on the sword had not yet dissipated.
The cool air emanating from her body collided with the medicinal fragrance steaming from the Dandingsi, stirring up a fine white mist in the air.
Those ancient furnaces that were once used to refine elixirs of immortality were now emitting a low humming sound.
"Insolent? Who is insolent?" Jing Yuan walked out. He glanced at the mess on the ground and then looked at the jade slip in Yu Luo's hand. "The Dan Ding Division can't even keep its inheritance now, but it has learned to use rules to suppress others?"
Yu Luo's face turned pale in an instant, "General Jing... Jing Yuan! You should know that although the Dan Ding Division has declined, it is still the foundation for the people of Xianzhou to seek medical treatment and medicine!" The doctors behind him clenched the pestle, but when they saw Jing Yuan, they involuntarily took a half step back.
Bai Heng suddenly poked his head out from behind Jing Yuan, "Foundation? You have locked up Little Dragon Lord for seven hundred years, just to protect his foundation?"
"Back then, the Dan Ding Division expounded the way of immortality, but now they can't even accommodate a little girl. If this gets out, it will seem like Luofu is making a fool of itself!"
"You...you are!" The jade slip in Yu Luo's hand fell to the ground, and the blood disappeared from his pale face.
He stared at Bai Heng, and a scene buried by time deep in his memory suddenly exploded.
The Yaoqing Mission a hundred years ago, that fox girl who could always turn danger into safety, was now standing before him alive.
He staggered back half a step and knocked over a glass bottle containing herbs nearby.
"Impossible..You obviously..."
"It's me, Bai Heng." She tilted her head and smiled slyly. She stepped forward and suddenly grabbed Yu Luo's wrist with her hand. The force was so strong that the Dan Shizhang couldn't break free. "Didn't expect it? That reckless guy who always crashed the Star Chariot back then is now going to smash your cage to pieces."
Yu Luo's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and there was shock and fear in his eyes as he stared at Bai Heng, "But you have been... dead for many years, how is it possible..." His voice trembled, and his eyes subconsciously swept towards Jing Yuan, trying to find a flaw in the general's expression.
Jing Yuan raised his lips in a smile, "Surprised? Bai Heng's return is a blessing for us."
"It is the actions of the Dan Ding Division over the years that are truly disappointing." He glanced at the doctors around him, "Imprisoning Long Zun and concealing the truth, do you know how many laws you have violated?"
"I..we didn't!"
"This is all for Luofu's safety! The Dragon Transformation Technique is a taboo. Bailu...she has unstable power flowing in her body!" He turned his head and pointed at Bailu, "Isn't the lesson of the Moon Drinking Rebellion painful enough?"
"So we should lock a little girl up like a canary in a cage? What you call doing it for the immortal boat is nothing more than fearing that you will lose the power to control life!"
This institution, which was once dedicated to saving lives, has now rotted away in power and fear.
"How dare you! How can the Danding Division allow you to slander us!" An elderly medical officer suddenly rushed out, "General Jing Yuan, as the commander of Luofu, are you going to allow these people to break the rules?"
Before he finished speaking, Fu Xuan also spoke up, "Rules? The Danding Division privately modified the Dragon Transformation Method and used the Dragon Lord's bloodline as an experimental subject. This is the biggest violation!"
"What!? We didn't treat Bai Lu as a test subject! I don't know where you heard this from, but don't make such a fuss!"
He staggered and pointed at Bai Lu, his Adam's apple rolling violently, "We are just... just looking for a way to stabilize the power of the dragon, this is for the sake of the entire Chiming clan!"
"Yuluo, Danfeng's inheritance failed back then, and Bailu inherited the vitality."
"But you wanted to extract her vitality to fill the hole left by your private modification of the Dragon Transformation Technique."
"Is that all you came here to say? What do you want to do?"
"Bai Lu is the Dragon Lord of the Chi Ming Clan, and her bloodline belongs to Xian Zhou!"
"It's nothing, I just want to take Bai Lu away."
"She doesn't belong to Dandingsi, who is regarded as the source of blood, nor does she belong to Luofu, who is trapped in chains."
"I belong...to myself!" Bai Lu also shouted.
"Nonsense!"
"Without the thin lock to suppress you, you will eventually cause the entire Luofu to repeat the Yinyue Rebellion!"
"So, this is the reason why we took her away, leaving Luofu and the fairy boat. Even if something happens, you don't need to worry, right?" Lin Yu smiled.
"This..." Yu Luo's voice was stuck in her throat, and her body was shaking with shock.
Just then, a slight sound came from the corridor in the distance.
"Oh, why is it so lively so early in the morning?"
"What are all these people doing here? Are they having a meeting?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
It turned out to be Lingsha Siding.
"Lord Lingsha." Yu Luo lowered his head slightly.
Lingsha walked straight towards Lin Yu, "See you again, little guy." She suddenly hooked her fingers, "Last time you didn't pay for the medical treatment, this time you want to kidnap the Dragon Lord of the Danding Division?"
Before Lin Yu responded, Lingsha suddenly laughed again, "Yuluo, look how interesting these little guys are."
"It's been seven hundred years. It's time to change the rules of the Dan Ding Division."
"Master Lingsha! What are you doing?"
"The blood of the Dragon Lord should nourish all living things, not be trapped in an instrument."
"Dan Feng chose the wrong way to inherit the family, but he didn't choose the wrong person." Ling Sha turned around and said, "Bai Lu, go and be the doctor you really want to be."
Then, Lingsha stuffed a note into Bailu's hand.
Bai Lu unfolded the note, and the beautiful handwriting jumped into her eyes, "To Dragon Girl: When you see this book, embrace your true self."
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her fingertips gently stroked the worn marks on the edge of the paper.
"This handwriting..." His brows were furrowed. A familiar figure in his memory overlapped with the words in front of him, but he was not sure.
“It’s Pinellia.”
"The medical assistant who helped you escape from Dan Ding Si, and the girl who betrayed the secret teachings of the King of Medicine for her short-lived lover."
"How do you know?"
"Although I have just taken office, the affairs of every member of Danding Division are recorded. Of course, I know about Banxia's affairs."
"But that Liang Mu... is really not a good person. It's a pity for Banxia."
Bai Lu recalled that when Banxia's demonic body attacked, she still managed to stay awake and whispered, "Don't be afraid, Liang Lang."
I remembered the girl trembling and saying "heal him..." before she died.
At this moment, the memories overlapped with the scenes before her eyes, igniting a rage she had never felt before in her heart.
How could Bai Lu not know that the demonic body was the destined end of the people on the immortal boat?
During those days and nights at Dandingsi, she read through ancient books and prepared thousands of prescriptions, but she could only delay the course of the disease for a short time.
Every time she saw a patient fall back into the agony of the demonic body, she condemned her own incompetence in her heart.
"I can't even save the person I want to save the most..." Bai Lu's voice trembled and tears welled up in her eyes.
She recalled the despair she felt before Banxia fell into the evil body, having exhausted all her strength but to no avail.
At this moment, anger and self-blame intertwined and almost overwhelmed her.
"Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. If you want justice..."
"No need." Bai Lu interrupted Ling Sha, "I will use my own way to let all those who deserve to atone their sins...taste the good medicine."
"I still think thirty years of burping at irregular intervals is too light a punishment."
Bai Lu shook her head gently, "A doctor's punishment should not be to hurt someone, but I will make him understand that the price of playing with people's hearts is harder to bear than the demonic body."
Hearing this, Lingsha nodded with satisfaction.
