Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 273: Favor

"We just need to reach the city and find a healer." Ye Jian then looked into the distance, towards the location where Lin Xiao and the others were watching. "And you should be able to hear us, right? Help us and I’ll help to cover up your identity, Prince Lin Yan."

Lin Xiao’s heart nearly leapt up when he heard what Ye Jian said. Prince Lin Yan transmitted their conversation to make sure that they were able to hear it even from a distance away.

He looked at his older brother. "Bro..."

"Let’s go." Prince Lin Yan pursed his lips, looking all calm and collected. This was not the first time he breached other kingdom’s territory and naturally, he had met with all sort of people on his way.

Swish!

With his Qi, he carried them all near Ye Jian and Mo Huan. He cupped his hand. "It’s my pleasure to be able to meet with you, Your Highness Ye Jian."

Ye Jian scoffed. "To think that a mere prince from such a small kingdom dare to move around..."

*cough* *cough*

Lin Xiao looked at Ye Jian and silently communicated with Lin Hu in his consciousness. "Lin Hu, they won’t be able to hear you or detect you, right?"

"No. I’m literally part of your body and soul, so no one will know unless I show myself or you summon me out."

"Is it possible for me to help that person?"

"You...? Oh, you mean with your Qi. Yes, you can temporarily help him but for him to fully cure, he’ll need advance healer that’s far stronger and more capable than you."

Lin Xiao: "..." do you really need to specify that I’m weak?

"What kind of ailment did he have?"

"It’s the special characteristic of his fire. He’s wielding Hell Fire in his body, which was one of the most powerful and deadliest fire element in the world. Normally, human would not be able to wield it.

It’s not known how he managed to make it his but it’s destroying his body from inside since there’s no restrain placed on the fire."

"Hell Fire..."

Lin Hu rolled around. "In any case, he will only stay alive for at most a few more hours with his current condition. The fire had reached his internal organ, including his heart."

Lin Xiao was stunned. He was about to ask more from Lin Hu when he heard the sound from the front.

"Young Master, please rest!" Mo Huan then looked at Prince Lin Yan and furrowed his brows. He couldn’t possibly always protect Ye Jian all the time, so he really did need some help.

"Why should I help you?" Prince Lin Yan looked at the group with his lips curled up to form a devilish smile. "Based on you threatening me? If you try to kill me, you’ll die first, Your Highness Ye Jian."

Ye Jian’s face turned dark. He scoffed. "What do you want?"

"First, I don’t want your men to kill us when you finally meet them in the city. Secondly, I would like more payment for protecting such a bigshot like you. Crow Organization is only one amongst many other organizations that want your life. That..."

Before Prince Lin Yan could finish his words, he saw Lin Xiao had spoken out. "Uhm, I can temporarily ease your condition."

"Lin Xiao!" Prince Lin Yan warned him to not speak anymore. The ability as a healer was extremely rare that those who have the ability might be taken away by others. He wouldn’t want to put his younger brother in dangers just because of his ability to heal.

"But I would like a favor from you aside from the other two that my brother asked," Lin Xiao continued.

"A favor?" Ye Jian squinted his eyes.

"Young Master, don’t listen to him. A healer is..."

"I know." Ye Jian naturally knew that a healer would be able to perceive the patient’s special condition and many other secret. After all, they would be sending their Qi to their patients.

It was because of this hat every big family would have their personal healer that would be required to stay loyal to that family until the end of their lives.

"Brat, I can’t accept that."

"In that case, forget it." Lin Xiao shrugged. "It’s likely that you’ll die tonight if you don’t get any treatment since the fire had reached your heart."

Ye Jian was stunned speechless. He looked at Lin Xiao because he also understood his current condition. The nearest city would take at least a day’s journey even if they hurry. He looked at Lin Xiao with wariness.

Beside Lin Xiao, Prince Lin San was also stunned. He could clearly see the degree of the man’s wounds thanks to his Eyes of Truth. But Lin Xiao shouldn’t have been able to do the same, right?

How did he know that?

"You... are you threatening me?" Ye Jian was angry and annoyed. He had never been in this terrible situation in his entire life.

Lin Xiao merely looked back ’innocently’ and smiled. "No, I’m not. I’m only stating my requirement."

Ye Jian felt that he would die if he continued to speak with that annoying brat. He turned to look at Prince Lin Yan. "Is he really a healer?"

"Yes." Prince Lin Yan was still glaring at Lin Xiao. It was clear that he wanted to give his little brother a good spank for spouting his mouth like that.

Lin Xiao didn’t understand just how rare healers truly were.

"In that case, I agree. However, you have to make a promise that you’ll not divulge my secret," Ye Jian added.

"You’re also not allowed to kill me nor ordering people to kill me," Lin Xiao haggled.

"Deal! You better not lie to me!"

"You also have to make sure that you don’t touch my friends..."

"I’M NOT THAT IMMORAL!"

*cough* *cough*

Since he was already in that state, Lin Xiao stepped forward to finish their ’promise’ arrangement with each other, including with his brother. He had to quickly treat him.

Prince Lin San was speechless. "it’ll be better if the patient is a beautiful lady..."
