Seeing the suddenly appearing monster, Ah Li became curious and leaned over to examine the little fellow closely.
However, the little fellow was so frightened that it trembled all over.
One must know that Ah Li was a thousand-year-old cat demon. Her aura was an irresistible force to these little monsters.
"Ah Li, come back, don't scare them!" Ling Tian quickly said.
Ah Li reached out and stroked the little girl's head before returning to her seat.
Yu Gong Yui soothed her for a while, telling Hotarugusa that Ah Li meant no harm. Only then did Hotarugusa stop being so scared. Then, the little girl raised the dandelion in her hand, and a green light enveloped Yu Gong Yui.
Ling Tian could feel that this green light was a powerful life energy, somewhat like his disciple Ling Ling's healing ability.
It wasn't surprising, as Ling Ling's healing ability also drew life force from plants.
After a while, the green light dissipated, and Yu Gong Yui's originally pale lips gradually regained their color, and her overall condition improved significantly.
Then, Hotarugusa suddenly disappeared from the room.
"A very interesting healing method!" Ling Tian exclaimed.
"Hotarugusa's true form is a dandelion. This dandelion grew for over a hundred years before becoming a spirit..." Yu Gong Yui did not hide anything and told Ling Tian about Hotarugusa's origin, as she could tell that Ling Tian was no ordinary person.
"Mr. Ling Tian, thank you so much to you and Ah Li. Otherwise, I would have met with disaster today." Yu Gong Yui expressed her gratitude to Ling Tian once again.
"Yui, after you finish treating the Princess, leave here as soon as possible. The person who provoked you today might have an unusual identity.
Even if Mr. Arroyo says he will report this to the King, he cannot protect you at all times!"
"Okay, I understand. I will leave immediately after the consultation!"
The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, Ling Tian received notification that he could go to treat the Princess at one in the afternoon.
After lunch, Arroyo sent a car to take Ling Tian to the Royal Palace.
Ah Li did not accompany Ling Tian, as Ah Li's identity was very special, and entering the Royal Palace required strict identity checks.
Passing through layers of guards, Ling Tian finally met the Princess.
Upon seeing the Princess's appearance, Ling Tian was also startled. The woman looked as if she had suffered a serious illness, very thin, but with a very large belly.
Ling Tian had seen the Princess's medical records. They stated that the Princess ate seven or eight meals a day and received nutrient injections, but despite this, she grew thinner and weaker day by day.
Ling Tian had the Princess sit facing him, then asked her to extend her right hand, and Ling Tian began to take her pulse.
From the pulse, there was a very strange fluctuation, which was not at all the pulse of an ordinary pregnant woman.
However, for Ling Tian, taking the pulse was merely a reference and a diversion. He secretly used his Heavenly Eye divine ability.
When Ling Tian saw the situation inside the patient's body through his Heavenly Eye divine ability, he was also surprised. This diagnosis confirmed Ling Tian's guess.
Then, Ling Tian calmly released her hand and let the Princess go to rest.
For a doctor, especially when dealing with very serious illnesses, it was not suitable to tell the patient directly.
Sometimes, telling the patient such things could even scare them to death.
Afterward, Ah Gou was heard in the adjacent room. Here, Ling Tian met two people. One was Arroyo, and the other was an old man who looked very much like Arroyo. Ling Tian knew this must be the Prime Minister of Darusalan, the Princess's father, Old Arroyo.
"Mr. Ling Tian, what is my sister's condition?
As I said before, please do not hide anything, speak your mind!"
"The Princess's condition is very serious. If intervention is not carried out immediately, she will not live for more than a month!"
"What kind of intervention are you referring to?"
"Of course, it's induced labor, to get rid of the child in her womb!"
"What about the fetus? Will induced labor affect the fetus's health?" Arroyo asked anxiously.
"If induced labor is performed, the fetus might survive, but the Princess will surely die!
However, that fetus is also unlikely to live for long. At the very least, it will never be able to become the heir to your kingdom!"
"This is outrageous!" Arroyo was somewhat disbelieving of Ling Tian's words. After all, he had recently consulted many obstetricians, and their opinions were generally to perform a Cesarean section on the Princess immediately.
Although this would cause some harm to the fetus, and babies born prematurely would be weak and have delayed development, it was still the only option.
"Mr. Arroyo, do you have a record of the Princess's itinerary?"
Ling Tian suddenly asked. Arroyo was stunned for a moment, then nodded. As the highest commander of the Royal Guard, he had records of the royal family's movements.
"What does the Princess's illness have to do with her itinerary?" Arroyo asked with some displeasure.
"Go and check if the Princess visited temples, cemeteries, or similar places in the month before she became pregnant and during the first three months of her pregnancy!"
"What are you joking about..." Arroyo was somewhat annoyed, feeling that Ling Tian was playing tricks on him.
"Arroyo, go and check as Dr. Ling Tian suggested!" The old man beside him, Old Arroyo, suddenly spoke.
With his father's words, Arroyo had no choice but to obey, so he turned and left immediately.
More than ten minutes later, Arroyo, with a pale face, returned to the room with a report.
The results on it were clear. Although the Princess had not visited places like cemeteries, she had visited more than a dozen temples in Southeast Asia and South Asia within these four months.
This was unavoidable. The Princess was very devout. In order to have an heir to the throne, she personally went to those temples to pray to gods and Buddhas.
"Mr. Arroyo, combined with the Princess's itinerary, I can now make a definitive diagnosis.
The Princess is not carrying an ordinary infant. She was possessed by an unclean entity in the early stages of pregnancy, which affected the fetus.
In other words, the Princess is carrying a ghost fetus! To put it more bluntly, what is in the Princess's belly is a little ghost!"
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Arroyo and his son jumped up. They had already prepared for the worst, willing to sacrifice the Princess to save the fetus.
But now Ling Tian was telling them that the fetus was the source of the trouble. How could they accept this!
