I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1648 - 1652: I’m Not a Simp

"In such a short time, where are we going to find a more powerful alchemist?"

Despair was written all over the faces of the Zhan family. Master Yun was already the most formidable alchemist in the Yanlan Empire. To find someone stronger, they would have to search other empires, which would take more than a day and require convincing others to help. It was simply impossible to find a higher-level alchemist tonight.

"Master Yun, is there really no solution?" The Zhan family looked at him with hope, as if he had become their lifeline. "Master Yun, if you can save the old man, any request you make, as long as our family can achieve it, we won't hesitate."

"This isn't about making requests," Master Yun, who also wished to help, said, "I really don't have that capability. If it were my teacher, the old man might have a slim chance of survival. All I can do is help him last a day or two longer."

A hint of pain flashed across Master Yun's face as he took out an exquisite little bottle from his body. "This was left to me by my teacher before he passed away. No matter how severe the injury, it can extend a dying person's life by two days. This is a life-saving item for Master Yun."

Right now, saving lives is a priority. No matter how good the item is, if it's not used wisely, it's a waste.

With a flick of his finger, the elixir fell into the old man's mouth.

A few minutes later, everyone felt the surrounding heat slowly retracting into the old man's body.

The old man seemed to be rejuvenated, with his body's functions gradually recovering, though he remained unconscious.

"This elixir is meant to stimulate the last remnants of life potential in the human body. I've done all I can, but by the night after tomorrow, you must find someone capable of treating him."

"Thank you, Master!" Even though it's only two days, it undeniably bought them precious time.

Although within the entire Yanlan Empire, Yun Master is the most powerful, it doesn't mean that no expert will happen to pass by or linger momentarily. It's left to the old man's fate.

"Someone, escort Master Yun back. Whether or not we can save the old man this time, the Zhan family will surely present generous gifts."

Master Yun waved his hand. "You should hurry and find someone first!"

...

The royal family quickly paid attention to the Zhan family's matter, and soon, a bounty spread across the entire Yanlan Empire. However, this approach was like waiting for a miracle, and the chance of success was very slim.

At this moment, Zhan Qing suddenly thought of someone.

Though the two parted unhappily today, Zhan Qing remembered his words very clearly before he left, saying the old man wouldn't last long. At the time, Zhan Qing thought he was cursing his grandfather, but now it seems he might have some ability.

"Father, I have something to tell you." Zhan Qing immediately recounted the situation regarding Zhang Menglong and mentioned the divine weapon. At such a moment, he didn't dare hide anything.

"You're saying the person brought by the Third Princess predicted your grandfather's issue?"

"Yes, when grandfather was just a bit weak, I didn't believe he was right. He also said he had a solution. Do you think it's trustworthy?"

"Whether it's trustworthy or not, all we can do now is try," Zhan Xun said, "You must immediately find this master and invite him!"

"But I don't know where this master is." Zhan Qing patted his head, "That's right, since he was brought by the Third Princess, she must have a way to find him. I'll go find the Third Princess!"

Not caring that it was already deep night, every minute and second was precious for the Zhan family now.

Fortunately, Qing Yun Pavilion wasn't far from the Zhan family, but upon arriving, Zhan Qing felt anxious because he had vented some emotions on the Princess today and didn't know if she would be angry.

Luckily, the Third Princess didn't refuse him despite his earlier rudeness.

"Third Princess, Zhan Qing was quite disrespectful today. Your willingness to see me makes me feel quite ashamed." Zhan Qing immediately expressed his apologies.

"Brother Zhan, no need to be so polite. You wouldn't come to me at this time unless something happened to Grandpa Zhan, right?"

Actually, after Zhang Menglong left, the Third Princess felt very conflicted.

She feared Zhang Menglong's prediction was wrong, which would leave her no reason to meet him again.

But if Zhang Menglong's prediction was correct, it meant something had happened to the old man, which she didn't want to see.

But now it seems the latter possibility is larger.

"Yes," Zhan Qing said, "Just a while ago, the fire poison in Grandpa suddenly flared up, and even Master Yun couldn't help, only prolonging Grandpa's life by two days. Within these two days, we must find someone who can treat Grandpa. Didn't that master say he has a solution? Can you find him, Third Princess?"

"Even Master Yun has no solution?" The Third Princess was deeply concerned. "I don't know where the master lives either, but before he left, he gave me something."

The Third Princess took out the Jade Pendant given by Zhang Menglong, immediately infusing her Divine Breath into it, causing it to glow with a red light.

"The master said if you come to me, activate this Jade Pendant to notify him. It seems he really predicted it." At this moment, Lan Xin found Zhang Menglong even more mysterious.

Not only did he predict the old man's worsening condition, but he also predicted that Zhan Qing would definitely come to him today, showing great confidence in his judgment.

It's just unknown whether Zhang Menglong will really come, and whether he can arrive before the old man can no longer hold on.

...

Gu Family.

Zhang Menglong was currently crafting some elixirs needed after the completion of the bloodline elixir injection when he suddenly sensed Lan Xin summoning him.

"Hahaha, I knew it," Zhang Menglong pocketed an elixir and stretched lazily.

[Dean, aren't you going directly? Isn't this exactly in your prediction?]

"Damn, he told me to leave, so I left. Now, he wants me to come back; am I someone at his beck and call? I'm not a lapdog!" Zhang Menglong said.

In his estimation, even if the old man's condition flares up, the Yanlan Empire may not be able to save him, but prolonging his life for a while should be achievable. It's the Zhan family who should be worried now, not Zhang Menglong.

He needed a grand entrance!

"Yiyi just sent me the latest court drama from Earth, which I haven't watched yet. Tonight, I definitely won't go to save anyone. I'll deal with it tomorrow morning!" Zhang Menglong tossed the Jade Pendant aside and took out equipment to start watching.
