Chapter 360: Tian Lingzi, whose life is nearing its end
Lin Rusi only came to her senses and sighed softly after Tian Lingzi and the other person disappeared from their sight.
"Asi, are you really not going to care?"
Li Jingyang raised his head and asked tentatively.
"Of course I don't want to get involved. What do their grudges have to do with me?"
Lin Rusi sighed, somewhat helplessly.
Upon hearing her say that, Li Jingyang understood: "Of course I don't want to get involved, but I have no choice but to, right?"
She didn't deny it, staring at the two of them for a while: "Let's go, we can't really just leave them like this."
After all, Tian Lingzi is her master!
Although he acted unethically, there was still a teacher-student relationship between them.
Moreover, this fake Tian Lingzi should know the whereabouts of her master.
Lin Rusi's martial arts skills were lacking, so she could only let Li Jingyang carry her into the air.
The two of them followed Tian Lingzi quietly.
The enemy had a clear objective, and despite having the Queen with them, they were still quite fast.
Soon they arrived at a peach grove not far away.
They were afraid that the fake Tianlingzi would be provoked and do something else.
Lin Rusi didn't follow, but cautiously followed behind.
Even those hiding in the corner could see it clearly.
Soon, the fake Tianlingzi stopped under the eaves of a house that provided shelter from the wind and rain.
Under the eaves, there was a straw mat, and on the straw mat, a person was lying.
From a distance, that person was clearly the real Tian Lingzi.
Lin Rusi glanced over and saw that Tian Lingzi, who was lying on the straw mat, was already very weak.
Looking at the person on the straw mat, the Empress's eyes immediately reddened.
She had just been wondering why her senior brother was so strict with her as soon as they met.
Now that I see it, I realize that this person is not my senior brother at all.
"Senior brother."
The empress knelt down beside the straw mat, sobbing uncontrollably.
At this moment, the fake Tian Lingzi also sensed something and immediately turned around to look.
His gaze was clear, directed towards Lin Rusi and the other person.
"Come out, I know you're there."
He snorted coldly and immediately raised his voice.
On the other side, Lin Rusi also looked up and tugged at Li Jingyang.
Sensing her subtle movements, Li Jingyang picked her up and took her out.
The two quickly approached the eaves.
"Who exactly are you?! Which of you two is the real Heavenly Spirit Child?"
Lin Rusi was always direct; as soon as she stopped, she asked without hesitation.
The fake Tianlingzi stared at her for a while, then smiled and said, "We two are somewhat destined to meet. Since you are also my younger brother's disciple, I will tell you."
"Actually, I am Tian Lingzi's twin brother. I did this for a reason. If it weren't for the fact that he was about to die, I would have resorted to this desperate measure."
"Life is short?"
Lin Rusi shook her head in disbelief. What did she mean by "not long for this world"?
She clearly didn't believe it, and then laughed, "You're lying to me. How could a divine doctor like Tian Lingzi be dying so soon?"
The fake Tianlingzi seemed to see through it all, and chuckled softly: "Everyone is born, grows old, gets sick, and dies. Do you think he's a god?"
"no……"
Lin Rusi's emotions were somewhat complicated.
Although Tian Lingzi had once deceived her, and the two of them have not truly reconciled to this day.
But Lin Rusi knew that she was only angry for a moment.
Even now, knowing that Tian Lingzi is in danger, she still can't let go!
Thinking this, Lin Rusi couldn't help but speak again: "If that's the case, why involve the Empress as well? What does this have to do with the Empress?"
Hearing her question, the Queen stopped crying and turned to look at her: "Is there anything I can do?"
“Originally, there was such a thing. This poison was made by the royal family of the Western Regions. However… they originally intended to use you to threaten the royal family, but judging from the situation, you probably don’t need it anymore.”
The fake Tian Lingzi spoke seriously, and seeing this, the Empress was also stunned: "The royal family used Gu poison?"
Clearly, the Empress was unaware of this.
Lin Rusi frowned, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
As the two were talking, the fake Tianlingzi spoke again: "I learned about this by accident. I didn't know about the Empress's situation before, but I do now."
As he spoke, Jia Tianlingzi looked somewhat dejected, his gaze towards his younger brother filled with complex emotions.
At this moment, Lin Rusi finally came to her senses.
It seems that this dying Tian Lingzi is his master.
However, the one in front of me probably isn't lying either.
She quickly stepped forward and half-squatted down beside Tian Lingzi.
After examination, it was indeed as the other party had said: the master's pulse was weak and looked very complicated.
Lin Rusi sighed deeply, unable to suppress her worry any longer, and asked in a low voice, "So, there's no way to save them?"
The fake Tianlingzi shook his head and did not speak.
The atmosphere quickly fell silent.
Seeing his dejected expression, just as Lin Rusi was about to give up, the Empress suddenly spoke again: "There is one person who still has hope!"
"who??"
"Who?!"
Almost simultaneously, Lin Rusi and the fake Tian Lingzi both looked over.
"The third prince of the Western Regions royal family."
The Empress spoke slowly and deliberately, her words earnest.
Seeing her say this, everyone looked over, and the Empress continued to explain: "This Third Prince specializes in the study of Gu worms. He has the most Gu worms in the entire Western Regions. If he can't do it, then I'm afraid no one in the Western Regions can."
"Besides, this is the royal family of the Western Regions, but the personality of this third prince is really..."
As she spoke, the empress's expression became somewhat distorted.
She had only been in the palace for a short time and had not seen the Third Prince many times.
Moreover, this third prince is a madman, a madman in the real sense. He generally wouldn't easily lend a hand to save someone.
Hearing the Empress say this, Lin Rusi felt that the name sounded familiar. The Third Prince of the Western Regions. For some reason, she felt like she had heard of this person somewhere before.
Lin Rusi frowned and did not speak easily.
"I'm going to find that Third Prince. I refuse to believe that with a knife to his throat, he wouldn't agree."
The fake Tianlingzi snorted coldly, then retorted,
The Empress was even more helpless: "You don't know, that Third Prince is really a madman. If you put a knife to his throat, he might be even more excited."
But I can't leave my senior brother unsaid!
Looking back at the unconscious Tian Lingzi, the Empress stood up: "I will go to him. I have met with the Third Prince. I will negotiate with him. I will definitely find a way to get him to agree to save the person!"
However, before she could finish speaking, Lin Rusi refused: "No! The Emperor is still sending people to hunt you down. If you show up at the Third Prince's residence, he will hand you over to the Emperor..."
Although the words were not finished, everyone understood the meaning behind them.
But the Queen smiled nonchalantly: "Don't worry, he won't. He won't hand me over, but..."
