Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 276

Chapter 0276 Wake Up!
“What? Lord Zhendu is sick?”

Hearing that Qin Fei was sick, Hong Feiyan’s expression changed.

She followed Housekeeper Zhu to Qin Fei’s room. After a careful look, she frowned and hurriedly pulsed with her hand with a solemn expression.

After a long time, she withdrew her hand and said with a serious expression, “Lord Zhendu has caught a cold. Looks like we won’t be able to leave today!”

“How is it possible to catch a cold wind? King Zhendu is an Earthly Martial Realm cultivator. How can he catch a cold wind?” Housekeeper Zhu was puzzled.

“Butler Zhu, Cultivators are not gods, No one can say for sure if you’re sick, The journey these past few days had been too hasty, We’re fine, After all, his body was much better than his, Used to come and go with His Majesty, I’m used to it, But unlike Lord Zhendu, It was very likely that this was the first time he had travelled so far, “Furthermore, he didn’t stop. He was already very tired after setting up the formation in the Silver Demon Legion two days ago. In addition, he had spent most of the past two days on horseback. It was normal for him to catch a cold. Watch him first. I’ll get someone to take some medicine and give Lord Zhendu some. He should be fine!” Hong Feiyan said.

‘”Alright, that’s the only way. Lord Zhendu shouldn’t have an accident. His Majesty has told us to take care of him and not make any mistakes. Now that he’s really sick, His Majesty must be very angry!” Housekeeper Zhu hurriedly urged Red Swallow to quickly return.

For three days in a row, Qin Fei didn’t get any better, his body was still cold, his entire body was covered in cold sweat, and he didn’t have any symptoms of recovery.

“Feiyan, what do you think we should do? Lord Zhendu has been ill for three days, but he hasn’t recovered at all. Do you think he can be cured?” Housekeeper Zhu and Hong Feiyan were discussing outside the room. He had an anxious and worried expression on his face.

Hong Feiyan frowned and said with a puzzled expression, “No, my judgement shouldn’t be wrong. Lord Zhendu is just an ordinary cold. According to my medicine, it will definitely be effective for three days. This is strange. Why hasn’t it improved at all?”

“Chief Officer, hurry, hurry” Suddenly, the City Lord hurriedly ran in from outside, his face covered in sweat.

“What’s the matter?” Housekeeper Zhu looked at the City Lord in displeasure. Didn’t he know that Lord Zhendu was inside? What was going on was so ungraceful at first glance that it didn’t have the slightest bit of manners.

“Grand Commander, it’s … someone from the Imperial Capital. He said that His Majesty sent him. He has a decree to read!” The City Lord hurriedly explained.

“Will?” Housekeeper Zhu was stunned. He immediately reacted and hurriedly went out to greet Hong Feiyan. Seeing the person who came, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. It turned out to be the coachman who was driving the carriage for His Majesty in the past.

“Where’s Lord Zhendu? His Majesty has a decree for him!” The groom said directly.

“He … he …” Housekeeper Zhu hesitated for a long time before finally saying helplessly, “He is ill. He is still lying on the bed.”

“What? The capital king is sick? So you’ve been here for the past few days?” The groom asked curiously.

“That’s right, Lord Zhendu is ill. We can only stay here and wait for him to recover. What’s wrong? Could it be His Majesty is urging us?” Housekeeper Zhu said.

‘”I ran to the Silver Demon Legion and said that you went to the Warhammer Legion. But I passed by the Warhammer Legion here and they said they didn’t see you. So I turned around and asked around every city. I finally found you here!” The groom said.

“What’s so urgent? Could it be that the grassland people are calling?” Housekeeper Zhu said in surprise.

“What are you fighting for? On the eighth day after you left, great changes happened on the grasslands. Old Khan died. The new Khan suddenly sent an envoy to the capital and submitted a letter of surrender. He said that he wanted to lead the grassland people to serve our Xuanling Empire. His Majesty is overjoyed. He has ordered me to invite Lord Zhendu back to discuss the country’s affairs!” The groom said.

“What? The Prairie people have changed into new Khan and are still loyal to our empire? That’s great!” Housekeeper Zhu was overjoyed, but then he smiled bitterly, “But Lord Zhendu is very ill. I’m afraid he won’t be able to return for a while!”

“So serious? I’ll go take a look!” The coachman hurriedly rushed to Qin Fei’s room.

Just as he entered the room, he saw Qin Fei suddenly sit up with a puzzled expression.

“Haha, that’s great. The capital king is awake!” Housekeeper Zhu was overjoyed.

Hong Feiyan frowned, feeling incredulous. Previously, Qin Fei was unconscious, but now, how could he recover so quickly?

She hurriedly walked up and said to Qin Fei, “Lord Zhendu, don’t move. I’ll help you take a look!”

With that, she took Qin Fei’s palm and said, “I haven’t fully recovered yet. At least I have to rest for a day!”

“What’s wrong with me? Why is my head so heavy?” Qin Fei had an ignorant look on his face.

Housekeeper Zhu hurriedly said, “Lord Zhendu, you have been unconscious for three days. You have suffered from the cold. Feiyan has taken care of you for a few days!”

“Oh, so, thank you!” Qin Fei said gratefully.

“It doesn’t matter. It’s all what I should do.” Hong Feiyan said.

“Eh? Why are you here?” Qin Fei looked surprised when he saw the coachman.

‘”Lord Zhendu, I am here on His Majesty’s orders to invite you back. The new Khan from the grasslands has surrendered. His Majesty specifically sent you back to discuss the affairs of the country, but you are ill. I’m afraid you will have to delay for some time!” The groom said.

“Your Majesty wants me to go back, how can I delay? Quickly, quickly! Help me down, we’ll hurry back immediately!” Qin Fei said excitedly.

“Prince Zhen Du, don’t be anxious. It’s not too late to recover from your illness before leaving!” Steward Zhu advised.

“What kind of manners is this? Your Majesty has summoned me to climb back even if I have to. It’s fine, I can hold on!” Qin Fei didn’t care about that much and directly got out of bed.

Hong Feiyan thought for a moment and said, “That’s the only way. Along the way, I’ll give Lord Zhendu a few more pills. Butler Zhu, quickly get the City Lord to prepare a comfortable carriage and bring the necessary items. Let’s hurry back to the Imperial Capital!”

So far, this was the only thing he could do. Butler Zhu actually wanted to go back as soon as possible. Of course, he wanted to go back and take a look at such a big thing.

On the way back, Qin Fei looked weak, but his heart was blooming with joy. He secretly praised Demon King and the others for doing things very quickly, not disappointing his expectations.

It seemed that Wanyan Tulie’s words had no effect on Old Khan. Demon King took action and directly killed Old Khan, causing Wanyan Tulie to become a new Khan.

This was exactly what Qin Fei wanted the most. In this way, the grassland would be his own backyard, and everything would be much smoother.

Of course, he had been pretending to be sick these past few days. Relying on the special technique of the Nine Revolutions Star Divine Art, it was very easy for him to fool Hong Feiyan’s investigation. He passed the test smoothly and lay comfortably on the bed for a few days. It was really pleasant.

When he heard that the coachman was here, he knew that he should stop pretending to be sick. Of course, this shouldn’t be too obvious. Otherwise, it would definitely arouse Red Swallow’s suspicion. Thus, he pretended that he wasn’t fully recovered and leisurely enjoyed the eldest lord’s happy life in the carriage.

Actually, he felt quite sorry for Butler Zhu and Hong Feiyan. They said that it was really good to him. Not to mention now, in the past, Zhu Li was only the Third Prince and he was just an ordinary alchemist. However, they treated him like they were friends. This time, they lied to them and felt that they were a bit sorry for their good intentions.

Forget it, he was too lazy to think too much. After returning to the imperial capital and recovering from his “illness”, he would give each of them an Earth Martial Pill as an apology!

After returning to the imperial capital, his “illness” was almost healed, so he immediately went to see Zhu Li.

Zhu Li happily told him that Prairie Khan had sent an envoy and showed Qin Fei the letter of surrender.

“Brother Fei, do you think they can’t be trusted?” Zhu Li’s expression turned solemn when he saw that he had finished reading.

Qin Fei pondered for a while before he said, “Brother Li, I think it’s feasible. No matter if they are playing a slow-moving trick or if they really want to surrender, at least this is clearly written in black and white. I think if possible, we should agree to accept their surrender first. Of course, we should be prepared for their sudden change!”

“Brother Fei is right. That’s what I think. Then it’s settled for tomorrow’s court meeting! Oh right, Brother Fei, are you alright?” Zhu Li looked at him with concern.

“It’s alright, it’s just a little cold. Brother Li, don’t worry!” Qin Fei laughed so hard that he couldn’t close his mouth.
