The gaze of the crowd converged on Mu Jinse. When the poison erupted, a hint of red light flashed on Mu Jinse's forehead, the sign of the poison's attack.
Just as everyone was focused on Mu Jinse, Bai Li Hongzhuang suddenly spewed a mouthful of blood.
"Splurt..."
In an instant, Bai Li Hongzhuang's already pale face turned even paler. Seeing her sudden blood spewing, everyone became a bit panicked.
"Yixuan, what's wrong with you?"
Mu Lingbing hurriedly walked to Bai Li Hongzhuang's side, her eyes filled with worry.
Everyone looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang with great concern. She had been the one working the hardest during these days.
She had been researching day and night, without getting any rest.
Even though Bai Li Hongzhuang's cultivation was not weak, she was not invincible.
From her gradually paler face, it was clear that she had been holding on desperately, but now she couldn't hold on any longer.
Bai Li Hongzhuang weakly waved her hand and said, "I'm fine."
However, her voice was exceptionally weak.
Her consumption during these days was too great, and she was already at her limit. Furthermore, the mental energy expended during the recent acupuncture treatment made it even more unbearable.
"Yixuan, please rest."
Mu Lingbing felt great distress. Bai Li Hongzhuang had always been filial, sacrificing even her own life to save Mu Jinse.
Now that Hongzhuang had done so much, they could only leave it to fate. They couldn't let Hongzhuang be in danger.
"Hongzhuang, please rest."
Emperor Beichen had long been distressed. Hongzhuang had always been too strong, and all the pressure had been on her alone. He wanted to share the burden, but there was nothing he could do.
Bai Li Hongzhuang shook her head and said, "I can still hold on. Let's see how the situation with the larvae unfolds."
Seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang's determination, and considering Mu Jinse's condition, no one had a solution. They could only wait a little longer.
Bai Li Hongzhuang's gaze tightly focused on the red light on Mu Jinse's forehead. Although this was her final desperate attempt, she had some confidence in her antidote.
The ingredients in the antidote could effectively restrain the larvae's development. As long as it succeeded, she would only need to exert a little more effort, and everything would be resolved.
However, the actual effect would still depend on the situation.
A moment later, Bai Li Hongzhuang saw that Mu Jinse's breathing had stabilized somewhat, and the red light on her forehead gradually dimmed. A joyful smile appeared on her face.
"It worked. This antidote can restrain the larvae."
With Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, everyone was filled with joy. They didn't expect that Bai Li Hongzhuang would come up with an effective antidote at this critical moment.
Just as everyone was about to praise Bai Li Hongzhuang, she could no longer hold on and fell backward.
Emperor Beichen had been paying attention to Bai Li Hongzhuang all along. He could feel that she couldn't hold on anymore, so when she fainted, he immediately caught her body.
"Master, Uncle, Aunt, I'll take Hongzhuang back to rest."
Emperor Beichen's eyes were bloodshot, and he was the one who felt the most heartache and sorrow for Hongzhuang's current state.
Since the antidote was effective, they didn't need to worry here anymore.
"Alright, go and take care of her." Situ Yan hurriedly said.
