The Legend of the Guardians of the East Gate
Ch. 159 - Emperor's successor.

My sister chose you as her husband, and died in the middle realms, but the blood I can still feel from your body, take good care of your soul, my brother Zhang Ziyi has sacrificed a lot for you," said the Goddess.

Zhi Yuan bowed, saluted the woman, his eyes reddened at the name Zhang Ziyi had not heard for so long, and the woman simply nodded, however Zhi Yuan's eyes were distracted by the entire color in the place it began to fade and the distant area looked only black and white.

"Zhi Yuan, the beginning I came to help you, but it seems like you have solved your own problems, only one more problem, now this is no longer your dream, but the dream of a dead man that your time in this place is very narrow, before his body really dies, I will help you out," said the Dream Goddess, and the black and white color was getting closer towards them.

"yi'er... Can I meet your sister Goddess?" ask Zhi Yuan.

"Are you really that stupid? it seems in vain my sister does a great job for you," said Dewi Dream look upset.

"Goddess what do you mean?" ask Zhi Yuan.

"Listen to the foolish brother-in-law, my sister has taken everything into account, she tricked the God of death, hid you from hell, and your mixed blood confused the six paths of reincarnation, and only sucked my sister's soul, just sucked it, you're very lucky to have a wife like that, and I'd feel guilty if you died with his own brother's technique, but about that sword, I don't know how you could use it, either, don't try to draw it into your world, because the sword has a soul, and it has devoured the demon star, no one knows the consequences, not even a god, so it's best not to, and now you have to go," said the Dream Goddess, holding up two fingers in front of her lips as she uttered some sacred sentences that echoed throughout the place, only the woman's body that had a medium color around her was already colorless anymore.

"wait for the Goddess, what do you mean Goddess Zhang Ziyi has reincarnated?" zhi Yuan asked, but everything had already blurred, and the young man woke up from his dream.

Eyes staring at the blood on his desk, which came out of his cheek, his body felt sore even though there was no incision visible, there was an incision sounding Bai Fang's cries followed by his drunken curses.

Zhi Yuan went back to inspect his pulse and bones, closing his eyes looking at his dantian,

the huge lake that contained qi energy was beginning to convex upwards fulfilling his dantian,

"it's so strange, it should have spilled that qi energy out of the well," Inner Zhi Yuan.

"my bones started to crack slightly in some places, the amount of qi energy almost broke through the realm of legends, this only took two months," murmured Zhi Yuan staring at his bracelet.

"bracelet spirit, what would you do if you were only two months old?" ask Zhi Yuan.

"two months? no. gabe...... I-I will do whatever I like for the rest of the time," Zhou Lu Zi said, the woman's gaze was so blank, and then closed her eyes.

******

The palace started to look so tense, as a result of the poison from the Qing Fan prince who was already at the point of death in the young Emperor's body, the Emperor started to become unconscious, becoming unconscious, and the news rang out in the ears of Empress Zhou Lu Zi, the woman stepped so quickly towards the Emperor's Pavilion.

Hundreds of bodyguards broke through the Emperor Pavilion's tight guard, dozens of maids lined up at the door leading to the residence, kneeling as they saw Zhou Lu Zi step swiftly in the imperial elite's guard.

the birth mother of the Emperor looked so sad, her eyes were swollen and slightly ran towards the arrival of Zhou Lu Zi, who was very sad,

"Your Majesty, please save my son" said the birth mother of the Emperor.

"This is the health of His Majesty the Emperor, we will do our best," Zhou Lu Zi said, and stepped inside and stared at the Emperor's bed, dozens of healers stepped aside to give way, Zhou Lu Zi approached the Emperor lying unconscious, the clean white fingers of the woman holding the Emperor's fingers so cold and limp.

"say the healer what happened?" zhou Lu Zi looked at the pale Emperor's face helplessly.

we've done all the methods, but to no avail, the poison in the Emperor's brain is incapable of us removing, and His Majesty the Emperor... His Majesty the Emperor will not last long" said the most senior-looking healer, and knelt down followed by everyone.

An old Counselor stepped up,

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, you have heard the words of the physician, it is good if you begin to seriously think about the appointment of a successor Emperor" said the old adviser.

It seemed that the mother of the Emperor was getting more and more upset and crying in the corner of the room,

Zhou Lu Zi raised one of his hands towards the old Advisor.

"Counselor. I understand your point, but it's not that early, and shouldn't be talking about something like that in this room," zhou Lu Zi said making the old Advisor nod and kneel, realizing his mistake.

Zhou Lu Zi touched the young Emperor's forehead,

"This will hold him back for a while," Zhou Lu Zi said releasing all of the qi energy he had in his Meridian stream.

"In three days the poison will not react, but His Majesty will not be aware, his body will degenerate, the healer input the immune-suppressing pill," Zhou Lu Zi said, and it appeared the chief healer nodded and prepared the pill that Zhou Lu Zi was referring to.

Zhou Lu Zi was still clasping those weak hands, his eyes were paying attention to the Emperor's face, and turning to the young Queen, sitting on her knees in tears, making her heart so touched.

"Although I don't understand about medicine, but the Emperor's Majesty can still be healed, I'm very sure, Ming Lan you know what to do," zhou Lu Zi looked out of the room and a woman called her name entered.

Counselor Ming bowed so politely.

"I will carry it out, Your Majesty, but..," Advisory Ming's remark was interrupted by Zhou Lu Zi's slightly high voice.

"Ming Lan.." Zhou Lu Zi's cry echoed in the room, making the entire person seem to stop breathing.

"For this time, there's no word but, do you understand?" zhou Lu Zi said in such a low tone, looking at Advisory Ming full of threats with raised eyebrows.

"well, Your Highness the Queen Mother, I'll leave now" said Counselor Ming
