I'm not a drama god

Mr. Han's answer did not surprise Chen Ling.

Since Mr. Han has come to the Hidden Cloud Realm with this crippled body, it is impossible for him to stand by and watch people die. However, under the current circumstances, how to provide safe and orderly treatment to the people is a difficult problem.

However, this is not a problem for Chen Ling to worry about. Now that Mr. Han has just entered the Cangyun Realm, he has been blocked and even kidnapped and disappeared. Cangyun Jun will definitely take some action...

“Mr. Han, I’ll be frank.” Chen Ling paused for a moment, “I have someone here who I would like to ask you to treat.”

Mr. Han was taken aback, but answered without hesitation:

"Since he is one of the Red King's men, I, Han, will naturally not refuse... May I ask, where is this person?"

Chen Ling stood up and gestured for Mr. Han to come over, while the Queen of Diamonds, the Jack of Hearts, and the Jack of Clubs remained where they were, waiting for their turn.

Mr. Han followed Chen Ling as they pushed open a narrow side door and entered a dimly lit room. There, they saw a weak young man with blood-stained bandages around his eyes, sitting on the bed with his knees drawn up to his chest. Hearing someone open the door, he turned his head in confusion...

Mr. Han frowned slightly upon seeing the blood-stained bandage around Kong Baosheng's eyes.

"Sir, this is..."

“It was the doctor I invited,” Chen Ling said gently. “He is the most skilled doctor of this era. With him here, he will definitely be able to cure you.”

Kong Baosheng couldn't see where Mr. Han was, so he could only weakly call out in the direction of the air:

"...Thank you, doctor."

To be honest, Mr. Han thought that the Red King had made such a big fuss to invite him over because he wanted to save a powerful subordinate or a woman who was as beautiful as an angel... But he really didn't expect that the person Chen Ling wanted him to save was just an ordinary boy.

Mr. Han sat down beside Kong Baosheng's bed, took Kong Baosheng's hand in his, as if he were carefully sensing something.

A moment later, his brows furrowed even more deeply.

Fortunately, Kong Baosheng's eyesight was poor, so he couldn't see Mr. Han's changing expressions, but Chen Ling's heart sank immediately after witnessing this scene...

The people in the room remained silent for a long time before Mr. Han slowly stood up.

"How is it?" Chen Ling asked immediately.

"...Let's go outside and talk."

Chen Ling nodded, told Kong Baosheng to rest well, and then went outside with Mr. Han.

“This child’s condition is very bad.” After considering for a long time, Mr. Han sighed. “There are probably four viruses in his body... and three of them have penetrated deep into his internal organs. These viruses are overlapping with each other, and because it has been delayed for too long, the condition has deteriorated to the extreme.”

"Even you can't save him??" Chen Ling's face was extremely ugly. "You are the foremost physician of our time!"

Mr. Han opened his mouth...

"I am indeed the master of medicine... but I am not an omnipotent god of medicine."

“Red King, you should know that the divine path is vast and the paths are different. My [Penetrating the Netherworld] can turn the tide, lock life, lock soul, lock life, lock death... but it can resolve viruses, which is not my forte.”

“Although I also have the ability to treat illnesses, the situations I can handle are limited. If I had come half a month earlier, I might have been able to cure him before the virus worsened, but now... he is terminally ill.”

Chen Ling clenched her hands tightly beneath her sleeves, the last glimmer of hope that had risen in her heart shattered completely at that moment.

"So... there's no hope?" Chen Ling's voice was extremely low.

"I, Han, am incompetent and cannot cure him." Mr. Han paused for a moment, "But if the Red King needs it, when he is critically ill and on the verge of death, I can use the [Land of the Dying] to lock in a sliver of life for him..."

How long can you stay locked up?

"If we only lock him up... given Han's current condition, he should be able to hold out for at most a day."

Chen Ling slowly closed her eyes...

one day……

But it doesn't cure the root cause. Even if it can lock in a day's life, what good will it do?

After an unknown period of silence, Chen Ling finally opened her eyes again and spoke in a hoarse voice: "...I understand, thank you Mr. Han."

A series of whooshing sounds came from outside the opera house, as if many figures were anxiously flying through the air, frantically searching for something...

Meanwhile, Q, the cube in the front hall, glanced at the sky through the crack in the door:

"It's a dragon slayer."

"A thorough search, huh... they must be looking for Mr. Han," Magician Jack of Clubs said calmly. "Should I hide the entire theater?"

"Hmph, no need to hide." The foreign youth, Red Heart J, licked his lips. "These kinds of trash... let me out, and I'll chop them all up!"

"Really? Then can you defeat Lord Cangyun?"

"..."

"It's said that there are still two eighth-level experts guarding the Hidden Cloud Realm. Can you defeat them?"

"...Are you looking for trouble?" The Jack of Hearts gripped the hilt of his sword, looking at the Queen of Diamonds with some annoyance. "Do you believe I'll chop you down first?!"

With the Red King here, even if the three members of the Twilight Society were arguing, they would only dare to do so quietly. However, Chen Ling had already sensed the situation outside and guessed that Cangyun Jun had already given the order to search the entire city for Mr. Han... It should only be a matter of time before they found Jinghong Tower.

If Chen Ling wanted to, he certainly had a way to make it impossible for the dragon-spinning warriors to find this place, but he didn't need to do it...

Mr. Han is not a real hostage, and they have no need to make trouble for Cangyun Jun at this time.

"Brother Li...you should see Mr. Han off."

Chen Ling was already disappointed. He sighed softly and said to Li Qingshan beside him.

Li Qingshan is currently working for Cangyun Jun, so it's most appropriate for him to bring Mr. Han back... Moreover, in a sense, this also represents the attitude of the Twilight Society towards Cangyun Jun, and is an expression of their goodwill.

Li Qingshan nodded slightly, walked to the side door of the opera house, and gestured for Mr. Han to enter.

"Please, Mr. Han."

Mr. Han followed Li Qingshan for a few steps, hesitated for a long time, and then stopped and looked back at Chen Ling.

"The clinic I'm staying at is not far away. If you need anything, just send someone to find me immediately..." He paused for a moment, then added, "That child's time... may not be long."

Chen Ling's pupils contracted slightly.

As Li Qingshan led Mr. Han away from the theater, the front hall fell silent once again.

Chen Ling looked at the tightly closed door of Kong Baosheng's room and sighed helplessly. Now, even Mr. Han was powerless to reverse the situation, and it seemed that they could only rely on Chu Muyun... But no one knew how long it would take for Chu Muyun to get the final "result".

Chen Ling walked back to the table in a sullen mood, took a sip of the tea, and then her gaze fell on the three members of the Twilight Society who were on the verge of exchanging barbs...

Seemingly sensing the Red King's gaze, the three of them stiffened slightly and immediately concealed their auras.
