Qiao Tian Chang suddenly froze when he heard what Ning Meng Yao said. Something happened to Qi Tian? How was that possible? Hadn’t he not been out of his residence for a long time? How was it even possible that he got into an accident?

“What happened?” Qiao Tian Chang’s voice shook slightly, fearing to hear any bad news.

Ning Meng Yao felt a little helpless, looking at Qiao Tian Chang’s very worried expression.

“The accident is related to Mu Chen and the others. This is the urgent letter that I just received. Take a look.” Even though she knew that Qiao Tian Chang possibly might get angry, she still handed him the letter.

It was a thin piece of paper, but it somehow felt very heavy when Qiao Tian Chang took it over from Ning Meng Yao.

He opened and read it carefully. When he read that Xiao Qi Tian was injured by Xiao Qi Feng, Qiao Tian Chang’s eyes were burning with anger.

“Tian Chang, you...”

“I want to visit Qi Tian.”

Looking at Qiao Tian Chang’s determined look, Ning Meng Yao was helpless, her eyebrows slightly frowned. Obviously she had not expected him to take this risk at this period of time.

“Tian Chang, you have seen it. The main reason is still to find you which is why he did that. I do not wish for you to go there at this time. I will let Grandpa Hei treat Xiao Qi Tian’s wounds. Hold on a little while okay?” Ning Meng Yao said seriously as she looked at Qiao Tian Chang.

Qiao Tian Chang opened his mouth, he wanted to say something but he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Ning Meng Yao’s slightly frowned eyebrows. He knew that Ning Meng Yao was only looking out for him.

“Yao’er, I...”

“I can understand how you must be feeling. I’m not really trying to keep you from going but now is really not the time.”

Qiao Tian Chang was silent for a long time, and finally he nodded to show that he understood.

Old Hei came over quickly. He nodded when he heard Ning Meng Yao’s explanation.

“Don’t worry, I will leave immediately.”

“Grandpa Hei, thank you for the trouble.” Ning Meng Yao said apologetically as she looked at the Old Hei seriously.

Grandpa Hei was already very old, yet she needed him to run around to help her.

“What are you saying, little girl? Grandpa feels satisfied that I am still able to help you with a few things.” The old man waved his hand, not minding the trouble at all.

Old Hei then quickly left with his medical box. Qiao Tian Chang watched his leaving figure, his thin lips pursed into a line.

“Do not worry, Tian Chang. Grandpa Hei’s medical skills are very good. Xiao Qi Tian will be fine.” Ning Meng Yao spoke softly to calm him down, seeing that his eyebrows had not stopped frowning, and his expression was still very worried.

“I know, but I’m still worried.” Who would have thought that under such circumstances, Xiao Qi Tian would protect Mu Chen and Situ Xuan and get himself hurt in order to let them escape.

Ning Meng Yao had not thought about this matter, but she had a gut feeling. Could it be that they had misunderstood Xiao Qi Tian?

As Old Hei was rushing towards the capital city, everyone in the Xiao Empire Palace was in a never seen before low spirit.

It had already been two or three days but no one had thought of a way to pull out the arrow from Xiao Qi Tian’s body. Although the imperial doctors had used a special way to stop the bleeding, they could not just leave him in this situation.

Xiao Qi Feng glared at the imperial doctors kneeling on the ground. Useless people, he thought.

“After three days, you guys have still not figured out a way? What is the use of even having you guys?” Xiao Qi Feng said angrily.

Every day he watched his brother’s breathing gradually weakening. This feeling was really not pleasant for him at all. He was very depressed.

“Emperor, please have mercy.”

“Have mercy? If I have mercy on you then will you be able to find a way to treat Prince Qi?” Xiao Qi Feng said angrily.

If Xiao Qi Tian could recover after he killed these people, then he would not hesitate one bit to kill them. But that was not the case. He still needed these people to find ways to save his brother now.

Everyone had their heads low, no one dared to speak out.

“I will give you all two more days. If you guys can still not find a treatment, then don’t blame me for being merciless.” Xiao Qi Feng was extremely furious as he glared murderously at the imperial doctors kneeling on the ground.

“Yes, we will.” The imperial doctors cried silently. What else could they do?

This time they could see that the Emperor was being serious. If they really could not find a treatment, then perhaps even their families would be affected. Not just themselves.
