To salvage

It has been two days and he was growing anxious with his anger rising every second for his miraculously vanished Qi. He had threatened and ordered for the man to find about the issue and the way to restore his Qi.

He was in his study when his attendant informs of the persons arrival. Quickly the man was ushered inside to meet the emperor as soon as they were alone the man starts to report his findings.

"Emperor this one has gone through all the historic and modern studies...through that this one was able to find two possible reasons for the sudden disappearance of your Qi...the first reason states you have unknowly hurt your meridian points be it it major or minor...when left uncared for long time the Qi will start to leak out till none remains...second reason is your cultivation being incompatible with your physique...

Normally the second option results to violent bursting of meridians and nerves from volatile clashing of Qi in midst of breaking through...but it also happens in a very subtle and rarest way when you are stuck in stale mate for a long period of time..

This incidence is called Qi dispersion but to know the exact reason of your Qi dispersion is almost impossible to find...the reason being to check through all of the meridian points at once the physician needs to have large amount of Qi along with highest level of needle art...

As for the cure it...it says...once thoroughly disperesed...it cannot be restored..."

Shiyou looks at the sweating man with sharp eyes and with haunting voice questions "so...basically there is none that can find the reason behind Zhen's predicament and heal zhen.."

The physician felt dying was much better than to face the emperor because of immense stress he has been taking many nerve calming soup not to mention herbs to keep his body working.

He stutters "that...this one thinks lord of the valley has the ability to find the exact cause and as for the cure...this one is not sure but perhaps she can do something...it is an open secret that the medicine valley has their own secret art which from ancient time have been rumored to even bring back the dead...it can only be passed and inherited by the blood of Liu the master of the sect...

It is the precise reason that they are called prodigies above others...and the current lord of the valley is rumored to have surpassed all of her ancestors..this one happened to see with my own eyes...her needle art has definitely reached to the peak and naming her the divine doctor isn't just for flattering.."

Shiyou closes his eyes for once again her name was mentioned as his only savior. He at this moment truly envied Pei Jin and Nanling for having Yusheng. He now learned why was it that even though after many decades were they respected and given such grand privilege.

He also knew it was almost impossible to ask for Yusheng when she had just left and most of all he feared of the leak of the news. He looks at the man on his knees and sneering at him says "what's the use of you..if the only thing you do is point other persons name..speak...will it have any effect on Zhen's health?..."

The man replies quick "it won't...your body is very healthy...because of all the training your physique is fit and sturdy...just you won't have Qi in your body..with regular training, and good diet your health will continue to be healthy.."

Shiyou was not least bit pleased as without a Qi he was a waste in martial practicioners eyes. He definetly cannot have this information leak but he also cannot have another one to learn of his situation thus he decided to keep the man alive for some time. He orders the man to prepare a healthy diet menu and herbs that will keep his health intact.

After the person was gone Shiyou starts to think how to finish Pei Jin and have Yusheng salvage him. He knew as the emperor he definetly won't even allow to step a foot out and Pei Jin being the watch dog of Yusheng would definetly learn of the matter if he sends request for her assistance.
