It was too much of a coincidence. Of all times for Lei Fan to come to such harm, it had to happen after Jun Xie left together with him and they were attacked shortly after.

Xiong Ba could not help himself but feel nervous. He had agreed to bring Jun Xie into the Imperial Palace only because of Qu Ling Yue's pleading and Lei Chen's request, but he really did not want to see the Emperor finding out that this incident could be linked to the Thousand Beast City in anyway.

Fortunately the Emperor had believed the eunuchs and he had not probed any further into it, and that had been a great relief to Xiong Ba.

Under the Emperor's anxious gaze and the Empress' teary eyes, the Imperial Physicians finally completed the initial diagnosis of Lei Fan's condition, and the results of the diagnosis greatly shocked the Emperor and Empress.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince had been fed Blood of Kin."


Chapter 922: "Curtains Up (5)"

"Blood of Kin?" The Emperor's brow went up as he stared at the Imperial Physician, not knowing what it was.

The Imperial Physician was still kneeling on the floor and he gulped secretly before he said: "It is a type of poison that will cause the victim to lose a great amount of blood. Although the toxicity of the poison is not strong, but it causes a situation where the victim's wounds would not be able to close. The poison's toxin goes into the blood of a person which makes the blood unable to clot, and it makes the blood surge in its flow, causing a heavier bleeding from the wound than it should from the injury."

"What does that actually mean?" The Empress was thinking the Imperial Physician's words were sounding a little strange, which made her ask immediately.

The Imperial Physician said: "The wound on the Fourth Prince's neck is not serious, but because of the effects of the Blood of Kin, the wound would not close, which will cause the current heavy bleeding to continue and result in the over excessive loss of blood....."

The Empress was so shocked her hands clutched her chest, and the Emperor's expression was turning darker by the minute.

"Isn't there anything that can neutralize this poison?" The Emperor was suddenly filled with hatred for the culprit. The wound he had inflicted was minor, but the lone elixir he used was enough to turn that minor wound into a mortal wound that would be fatal!

The Imperial Physician was covered in cold sweat. He wiped at his forehead which was heavily beaded with sweat as he said: "You lowly subject has already given some blood nourishing elixir to His Highness and that can temporarily alleviate the condition of excessive blood loss. But to completely neutralize the poison from the Blood of Kin, there is only one way! The name Blood of Kin, is derived from the method needed to neutralize it."

"Then, spit it out quick!" The Emperor really felt like giving one big mighty kick to this humming and hawing Imperial Physician.

"It needs..... the kin of the victim, to give out some of his blood, to dilute and thin out the toxin in the victim's blood, and the use of other medicine in support, before it will work." Upon finishing his words, the Imperial Physician hit his head three times on the ground in kowtow.

"Blood of his kin?" The Emperor was shocked a moment, and he asked immediately after: "Will the blood between brothers work?"

The Imperial Physician hastily replied. "If the blood of siblings is to be used, they will need to be born from the same biological parents on both sides, and the one supplying the blood must be male before it will work."
