The Empress Has a Hidden Illness!
"Enough, Xiao Chen, I will lend you this money."
Seeing that Zhao Yao was unable to help, Zhou Tong couldn't help but shake her head in disappointment.
Then, she stepped forward.
"Teacher Zhou."
Xiao Chen felt a rush of emotion as his eyes reddened; he was deeply moved. In this critical moment, it was still Teacher Zhou who could be relied upon.
The reason Teacher Zhou was so good to him must be because she had feelings for him, right?
However, the thought of asking Teacher Zhou to part with so much money made Xiao Chen increasingly angry.
"Chen Anlin, just you wait."
Xiao Chen's resentment towards Chen Anlin escalated several levels because he believed all of this was due to him. Otherwise, Teacher Zhou wouldn't need to give so much money.
Once he achieved success, he would definitely give Teacher Zhou the best. As for Chen Anlin...
A determined light flickered in Xiao Chen's eyes as he shouted at Chen Anlin, "Chen Anlin, today I am injured; though I may be defeated, I will not be humiliated. But remember this: thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west; the humiliation of today will surely be repaid a hundredfold in the future."
After saying that, Xiao Chen didn't even glance at Zhao Yao and turned to leave.
Next, he planned to venture deep into the mountains for training—madly cultivating and hunting beasts to repay his debts as soon as possible while growing stronger!
Soon enough, he would make sure that Chen Anlin was beneath his feet!
Chen Anlin also had no intention of staying here. He was somewhat displeased that Xiao Chen's matter with the evil spirits had passed so easily. He intended to go into the palace and have a serious talk with the Emperor about revoking Zhou Tong's position as a teacher.
As he left, he noticed that both Zhou Tong and Zhao Yao were glaring at him with resentment.
These two needed to be dealt with!
Although Zhao Yao had her differences with him, her strength was low; at most, she could annoy him a bit but couldn't cause him any real harm.
But Zhou Tong was different. Not only was this person powerful, but he was also a teacher at Huqing Academy, wielding a certain degree of influence. Therefore, it was imperative to deal with Zhou Tong first. He believed that once Zhou Tong was eliminated, it would be a tremendous blow to Xiao Chen, and he would surely gain a significant amount of fortune points.
After Chen Anlin left, a middle-aged man called out to Zhou Tong.
"Dean, you called for me?" Zhou Tong took a deep breath, suppressing her irritation, and walked over to Dean Shi Tianming.
"Teacher Zhou, you shouldn't have treated Chen Anlin that way just now. The Chen family is not simple; do you understand?" Shi Tianming said with concern.
"Dean, I remember you said before that light will always triumph over darkness. This is also our academy's motto," Zhou Tong retorted with a light snort.
"Others may fear someone like Chen Anlin, but I, Zhou Tong, am not afraid."
"But the problem is that Chen Anlin didn't actually target you. Don't you think you're in the wrong?" Shi Tianming countered.
"Dean, even you are defending someone like him? He bullies Zhao Yao and even wants to kill Xiao Chen. Didn't you see? They are just ordinary students, while Chen Anlin is the son of a powerful family. If this isn't bullying, then what is?"
Shi Tianming wanted to say more, but Zhou Tong waved her hand dismissively. "I understand. You're worried that Chen Anlin might report you, right? Don't worry; I'm not afraid of him."
With that, Zhou Tong left the place.
Indeed, fortune points had already been gained. Entering the palace, Chen Anlin nodded in satisfaction.
Upon arriving at the grand palace hall, Chen Anlin was surprised to see Chief Eunuch Gu Mingde rushing over in a hurry.
"Chief Eunuch, what’s the matter?"
"Ah, Your Majesty is unwell and probably cannot see you today. Anlin, you should go back for now," Gu Mingde replied.
"What? The Emperor is unwell?"
Chen Anlin was taken aback. The Empress had such strong cultivation; how could she be ill?
"Quickly summon the imperial physician," he said to Gu Mingde.
At that moment, Yang Dou approached them.
"Alright." Gu Mingde nodded and hurriedly left.
"Sister Dou, what’s going on? I’ve never heard of the Empress being ill before," Chen Anlin asked, recalling the plot of the novel in his mind.
The novel did not provide detailed information about the Empress, so he was unaware of her illness. However, it did mention that she practiced a forbidden technique that led to instability in her foundation and a decline in her cultivation.
Could it be that the Empress's current symptoms are due to her cultivation method? Chen Anlin speculated.
Indeed, Yang Dou explained, "The Empress isn’t actually sick; she practices a peculiar divine ability that causes her body to suddenly feel overheated."
"Overheated?" Chen Anlin was taken aback again, realizing the truth.
"Is there a way to treat it?"
"It’s difficult. The Empress used to be fine, experiencing this only two or three times a year at most. But as her cultivation has improved, the occurrences have become more frequent."
