The south city gate of the Royal Capital.
Cawââ
The long cry of an Immortal Crane.
Immediately, those waiting at the city gate for a long time all looked towards the direction within the city.
Hearing the long caw of the Immortal Crane, they knew the rightful owner had arrived.
"Heâs here!" someone whispered.
"I heard he was cursed half a month ago, and his health is now very poor."
"In principle, yes, half a month has passed, the curse has entered his body, medicine and stones are difficult to cure, itâs hard to escape this calamity."
"..."
Listening to those whispered discussions.
Ji Minghaoâs eyes flashed slightly with brilliance.
In these days, he also took Ji Mingyue to visit Jiang Ning twice.
Each time they saw Jiang Ning, it was worse than the last.
The last time was three days ago.
At that time, Jiang Ning couldnât help but cough heavily in front of him, and he also saw the dark golden blood foam Jiang Ning coughed out from his hand.
At that moment, he could feel the cold, obscure Curse Power emanating from Jiang Ning.
He also knew Jiang Ning had already stepped onto the same path as his father.
The doom was ultimately inescapable.
Because his father was about to walk this path as well.
He knew these days his father didnât attend court or show up because his health had completely deteriorated.
The curse had reached the final stage.
And Jiang Ning, wouldnât hold on for long, and ultimately would walk this path.
"Let Shiqi accompany him during his last days!" Ji Minghao silently sighed.
"Eighth Prince, Seventeenth Princess has arrived!" the Chief Manager Hai behind Ji Minghao said.
At this moment.
Following the slightly eased sight line of the city gate passage, a man and a woman appeared within view.
The manâs figure was tall and erect, with long hair tied by two hairbands at the back, full of vigor.
The womanâs figure was petite, only slightly higher than the manâs shoulders.
Behind them followed a proud Immortal Crane, step by step.
The Immortal Craneâs slender feet made a tapping sound on the brick ground.
"Greetings, Third Prince, Fifth Prince, Eighth Prince!" Jiang Ning cupped his hands.
"Dongling Marquis, donât mention it!" the Third Prince smiled faintly.
Then he held two cups of wine and walked towards Jiang Ning.
"I knew in the morning that the Marquis would ride the crane southward, so I came early to wait, but too hastily, I didnât prepare much, hope the Marquis wonât blame me."
As his words fell.
The Third Prince held the wine cup in his right hand before Jiang Ning.
"This cup, wish you a smooth journey, and safe return!"
"Thank you for the Third Princeâs blessing!" Jiang Ning smiled.
Then he took the wine cup handed by the Third Prince, gestured through the air with the two, and then drank it all in one gulp.
In an instant.
The wine in his stomach transformed into a surging heat flow, causing his body pores to unconsciously relax.
This flow of heat rushed into the internal organs.
Cough cough coughââ
He instantly clenched his right hand into a fist, placed it before his mouth, and coughed lightly.
The crowd witnessing this scene had their eyes flashing.
At this moment, Chief Manager Hai nodded silently in his heart.
Nearing Jiang Ning, he could also feel the cold, obscure forces emanating from Jiang Ning.
Coupled with Jiang Ningâs uncontrollable coughing at the moment, he suddenly knew the Curse Power had already penetrated into Jiang Ningâs lungs.
The lungs are among the five organs.
This indicates that the Curse Power has already seeped into the heart, spreading to the lungs, and possibly the other three organs might also be eroded by the Curse Power.
"What a terrifying Curse Killing Skill!!"
He looked at Jiang Ning at this moment, secretly sighed in his heart.
As the confidant following the Changning Emperor, he had personally seen how the Changning Emperor went from spirited to struggling for life.
Now, this scene repeated yet again on this unparalleled Dongling Marquis.
Thinking of the encounters of the two, he couldnât help but secretly sigh, feeling regret.
At this moment.
The Fifth Prince Ji Mingyuan also took the initiative to step forward.
He also held wine in his hand.
However, it wasnât the ordinary wine cup held by the Third Prince just now, but a wine goblet.
"Dongling Marquis, return early from this trip, I await you in the Royal Capital!"
Jiang Ning glanced at the Fifth Prince Ji Mingyuan.
"Alright!" he responded.
Then took the wine goblet handed by the Fifth Prince Ji Mingyuan.
Then raised his hand to indicate, before drinking it all first in one go.
Moment later.
His face slightly changed.
If the just drank wine from the Third Prince brought surging heat waves.
The wine from the Fifth Prince Ji Mingyuan was like a volcano erupting explosively inside.
The Qi-Blood inside surged like tides, racing in the blood vessels.
This also triggered the Qi Blood Power.
Jiang Ningâs eyes shone brightly.
"Such powerful medicinal wine!!"
The Fifth Prince Ji Mingyuan smiled: "This is my Dragon Bone Wine treasured for fifty years! The medicinal power is naturally strong! Only extraordinary heroes like Dongling Marquis deserve me bringing out this wine!"
Just then.
The erupting volcano within swept into the lungs.
In an instant.
He couldnât suppress the cough from the lungs any longer.
Cough coughââ
Cough cough coughââ
A violent cough sounded from his mouth.
He also held his right hand over his mouth, bent down, the breath became heavy.
His chest visibly heaved.
"Is the Marquis alright!!" Ji Mingyuan stepped forward, looking concerned.
Jiang Ning waved his left hand, indicating it was no problem.
At this moment, Ji Mingyue, seeing Jiang Ning, eyes filled with pity, lightly patted Jiang Ningâs back with her hand.
After coughing continuously for several breaths.
Only then did Jiang Ning suppress the coughing within, his stature returned erect.
At this moment, Ji Mingyueâs eyes slightly moved.
Because he saw a dark golden blood foam in the palm of the right hand covering the mouth.
"The curse truly has penetrated into the lungs! I wonder how many places of the five organs are now infiltrated?" thoughts crossed his mind.
"Brother Jiang, have a cup of this to ease up!" Ji Minghao stepped forward at that moment.
As he spread his palm, a white ceramic jade bottle appeared in the palm.
