"Your Highness, is it definitely poison?" Wuzi, the woman with glasses, asked.
Lu Yin shook his head. He wasn't sure, and neither was Ming Zhaoshu. But since his life force was fading without warning and he had no injuries, poison was the only possibility.
"If it's poison, then unless Heaven's Materials and Earthly Treasures can directly replenish his life force, there's no cure," Wuzi said with conviction.
Lu Yin frowned. "No cure?"
Wuzi nodded. "If someone is poisoned and falls unconscious because the poison harms the brain, then you only need to find medicine that can heal the brain.

The New Human Alliance? Lu Yin suddenly realized it was possible. The Shenwu Continent wasn't simple. Lu Yin knew that, Ming Zhaoshu knew that, and the New Human Alliance knew
