Heartache, Situ Yan

"Now there's no other way?"

Situ Yan endured the pain in his heart and looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang. He felt utterly powerless in the face of Mu Jinse's excruciating suffering. This feeling was indescribable.

The gaze of Mu Lingbing and the others fell on Bai Li Hongzhuang. She was now their only hope. However, deep down, they knew that Bai Li Hongzhuang had already done everything she could.

Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes slightly narrowed, her expression grave and serious. "Given Grandmother's current condition, she can hold on for at most three days. I have been working on some methods, but it will take some time to prepare them. If they prove effective, then there will still be a glimmer of hope for Grandmother."

During these days, Bai Li Hongzhuang had tried numerous methods to deal with the larvae. However, such things were extremely rare and unfamiliar to anyone, making it difficult to come up with a solution. So she could only continue to experiment.

Through these continuous attempts, she had finally discovered some substances that had a certain effect. Hearing Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, the eyes of the others brightened a bit. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, it was considered good.

"Grandfather, Mother, please take care of Grandmother. If the larvae start to act, notify me immediately."

Bai Li Hongzhuang's outstanding face was filled with seriousness. She could only give it her all now.

"Yixuan, don't worry. We'll handle things here," Mu Lingbing quickly replied.

"I will create the remedy within these three days. Elder Gu, I will need your help with many materials," Bai Li Hongzhuang said, shifting her gaze to Gu Jinghe, who was beside her.

"Don't worry. Whatever materials you need, I will do everything possible to gather them."

After witnessing Mu Jinse's condition today, Gu Jinghe felt exceptionally heartbroken. Throughout these years, he hadn't seen the Palace Master, and he never imagined her condition had deteriorated to such an extent. Regardless of the items required, the Moonlight Palace would spare no effort if there was a glimmer of hope.

Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly and quickly left the sleeping chamber, returning to her own room. Initially, she had only gained a slight clue, but she couldn't be sure of the final outcome. If there was enough time, she could prepare and test it. However, based on the current situation, it seemed there was no chance.

She could only give it her all; it was their last hope.

Emperor Beichen followed closely behind Bai Li Hongzhuang as they left. She had been under tremendous pressure during these days, and he felt deeply distressed watching her. However, like Mu Lingbing and the others, he couldn't find the words to tell Bai Li Hongzhuang to take a rest in such circumstances.

Now, there were only three days left, and Bai Li Hongzhuang would undoubtedly give it her all. He could only silently stand by her side and let her rest properly after this matter was resolved.

He had been the one preparing Bai Li Hongzhuang's meals recently, adding plenty of nutritional ingredients to alleviate her fatigue. However, it was evident that continuing without rest for so many days was unsustainable. Once these three days were over, he would ensure Bai Li Hongzhuang had a good rest.

After returning to her room, Bai Li Hongzhuang immediately began the swift preparations, informing Gu Jinghe of the required medicinal herbs. Fortunately, the Moonlight Palace's inventory was quite abundant, and they could find everything she needed.
