Douluo: Xiu Xuanjun seven chapters, become the compassionate medicine king!

Chapter 9 The Suffering Called "Short Life"
"Get out! Get out of here!"

The emperor roared angrily, and the eunuchs below fled in a hurry as if they had been pardoned.

The smell of rust filled the air. After venting his anger, Emperor Douling gradually calmed down. He sat down on the throne and looked around at the empty space. He laughed, "Hahaha, they are afraid of me! They are all afraid of me!"

"Golden Knight, don't you think it's funny? I treated them like this, but no one dared to stand up and resist. Some even knelt on the ground and licked my heels like dogs."

"What a bitch! Such a bitch!"

"Cough... cough cough! Ha!"

The Douling Emperor laughed so hard that he almost choked on his breath and started coughing violently. He took a deep breath with a grin on his face, "That's why I can't die. I want to live well. I want everyone to be afraid of me. I want them to drag this country forward under my power!"

His eyes fell on his great commander, Jinqi Douluo, and the Emperor of Douling asked, "You will always be with me, right? Jinqi?"

Jinqi Douluo quietly looked at the man to whom he swore his lifelong loyalty since childhood. Even though times have changed and he is no longer the same person he was back then, his thoughts remain unchanged.

The Golden Knight Douluo said: "This body is a sword, and it is held by you!"

After getting the answer he wanted to hear, the Douling Emperor laughed heartily and patted his shoulder vigorously.

Suddenly he seemed to remember something and asked, "How was the investigation into the cause of death of your young commander going?"

Although there were many soul masters with the strength of Soul Emperor in the Dayu Golden Cavalry, they were also the backbone of the force. What's more, he was killed at the gate of Douling City. This was a slap in the face of the entire Dayu Golden Cavalry and even the Douling Emperor. Naturally, he kept it in mind.

Golden Rider Douluo replied, "We have already investigated and traced the general trace. According to the inference, the murderer is the pharmacist who has been widely rumored recently to be the one who saves the poor and the distressed. Both the method and the time when the rumor appeared are consistent."

"And the other party seems to be related to Duke Herael. There are many nobles from Herael's family pushing these rumors. It is not clear what their purpose is."

The Douling Emperor listened carefully to what he said. When he heard the name of the pharmacist, his eyes drifted away and he murmured to himself: "Pharmacist...save the suffering..."

"Your Majesty, this is about the Duke and many nobles. Do you need me to escort them back to prevent any accidents? Moreover, regarding the underground auction at the opera house..."

Before Golden Cavalry Douluo could finish his words, the Douling Emperor, who had come back to his senses, interrupted him with a scornful smile on his frail old face.

"It seems that my imperial sister, who has been different since she was a child, can't help it. But so what? Even if she is a ferocious wolf, she is leading a group of sick dogs."

"As for the escort..."

The Douling Emperor's expression became uncertain. After a long while, he said, "It's not about escorting him, it's about inviting him here."

"What if he doesn't want to come?" asked Jinqi Douluo.

"No, he will come."

The Douling Emperor said with absolute certainty: "He will definitely come!"

Seeing this, Jinqi Douluo stopped asking further questions and turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

At this time, the emperor was the only one left in the huge palace. After a long time, a hoarse voice was heard.

"Eternal life!"

……

"Master Pharmacist! Please save my father!"

The middle-aged nobleman begged Lu Chun earnestly to treat the old man lying on the hospital bed. Many of the old man's descendants stood around and looked at Lu Chun with the same sorrow.

After looking at the middle-aged nobleman, Lu Chun said gently, "That's why I came here. Let me take a look at the patient's condition first."

"Okay... okay!" The middle-aged noble was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and stepped aside.

Lu Chun walked forward, and the anxious eyes of the people around him followed his figure.

Walking to the bed and casually glancing at the old man lying on it, Lu Chun already knew the general situation.

He sighed, "Sir, your father's time has come." His eyes were full of compassion and his words were full of sadness.

"Flowers bloom wantonly, but they cannot avoid withering; birds spread their wings and sing, but they cannot avoid falling; streams gurgle, but they cannot avoid drying up - all things must perish, and there is no escape from the suffering called short life."

"This...Are you saying that my father is really dying?!"

The middle-aged nobleman and the people around him showed joy on their faces for a moment, but it was quickly replaced by sadness. He suddenly threw himself on the bed, shouting his father's name and crying bitterly.

"Ugh--"

Seeing him so sad, Lu Chun sighed, then a smile appeared on his face, and he comforted him: "Don't worry, although a short life is terrible, I still have a way to treat it."

"what?"

The middle-aged nobleman suddenly raised his head, his eyes wide open, and he was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Lu Chun just waved his hand, and a spiritual medicine full of vitality appeared in his hand.

Seeing the magical medicine, the middle-aged noble finally believed that the legendary pharmacist in front of him was really capable of restoring his father. He stammered, "This magical medicine of yours is worth a lot, right? I..."

Lu Chun shook his head and chuckled: "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. How can it be measured by so-called value?"

"Wait... please wait..."

Before the middle-aged noble could finish his words, Lu Chun had already handed the elixir to the old man on the bed, and a strange scene occurred.

Without any chewing, the elixir turned into emerald green vitality and flowed into the old man's mouth in front of everyone. Then the old man's originally dim pupils lit up, and he sat up suddenly in shock.

Seeing this, Lu Chun smiled, turned around and said, "Your father is fine now, I will leave first."

After taking a look at his energetic father, the middle-aged nobleman gritted his teeth and spat out two words.

"Thanks!"

Lu Chun smiled and shook his head to indicate that you were welcome. He turned around and left the mansion, quietly disappearing in the crowd.

That night, at Duke Gerard's mansion.

According to Lu Chun's instructions, all servants were dismissed, leaving only Lu Chun, Herael and a soul warrior in the mansion.

The Contra priest watched the Grand Duke fawning over the slave he bought at the auction, and felt that these nobles played games differently.

At the same time, he glanced at the unusually quiet mansion and asked in confusion, "Why did you dismiss everyone in the mansion, Grand Duke?"

As he said this, he kept looking at the slave. Having been worshipped by the nobles for many years, he had naturally seen many things. He thought that the house was empty with only the three of them. Could it be...

Thinking of this, the worshipper shuddered suddenly, his expression was extremely tangled. Should he... or should he not...

Gerard did not answer. In fact, he did not know what his master was thinking, so he looked at his master.

Lu Chun didn't want to say anything more to them, so he said calmly, "Wait for someone."

A pair of eyes stared at the darkness ahead, and suddenly a powerful vitality that could not be ignored appeared in his perception, and the worshiper on the side also noticed it.

The other party did not try to conceal his aura at all. The worshiper thought that the visitor had bad intentions and responded immediately. A shield appeared in his hand. He stood in front of Lu Chun and the other man and shouted at the uninvited guest: "Who are you?"

There was no answer. What greeted him was just a golden sword. There was no murderous aura in the sword. It just lightly touched a certain part of the shield, and the shield instantly flew backwards and dissipated into soul power.

The worshiper looked at the knight in golden armor in front of him, opened and closed his mouth and said blankly: "Golden Cavalry Douluo?"

The Golden Cavalry Douluo walked forward slowly, completely ignoring Helar, the Duke of the Empire, and looked directly at Lu Chun at the back. Lu Chun also looked at him with a smile.

The Golden Cavalry Douluo made way for him and gestured, "Pharmacist, His Majesty invites you."
