The maid's face initially showed only anger, but after hearing those words, her eyes nearly bulged out.
Her heart was so furious it felt like it could explode.
Sick? Where did this guy come from? How dare he insult her like that? Was he seeking death?
From childhood to now, she had never been this angry. Even seven or eight years ago, when she was injured by the ancestor of a medium-sized dynasty and barged in, she had never been this furious.
Last time, the other party was at least in a hurry and acted recklessly.
But this time, she didn't let him in, and this kid dared to insult her in front of so many people. It was simply rebellion.
Since becoming a maid of the Alchemy Pavilion, it was the first time she had been insulted like this in public.
"You..."
Her body trembled, pointing at Qin Chen. She was so furious that she could hardly think straight, ready to order Xu Long and the others to move and kill Qin Chen and Zhuo Qingfeng on the spot.
"I see your temper is volatile, your face is pale while speaking, your internal energy is unstable, and there’s an ominous sense of being unable to control it. If I’m not mistaken, it seems your bloodline has issues. Every time you activate your bloodline, you feel pain throughout your body, and it’s as if you can't exert your strength?"
"You guys, get me..."
The maid was fuming and about to order someone to act, when she suddenly stopped after hearing Qin Chen's words. Her previously angry expression turned into shock as she stared at him.
What he said was exactly right. Indeed, her bloodline seemed to have problems recently. Every time she activated it, she felt weak and short of breath, and when she activated her bloodline, the pain was unbearable, as if thousands of needles were stabbing her, making her suffer immensely.
She had gone to the Bloodline Sacred Land in Tianqicheng to seek help from a bloodline master, but unfortunately, they couldn't find the cause no matter how they examined her. They only said it might be an individual case, prescribed some medicine that she took every day, but she hadn't seen any improvement. Over time, she had come to accept it.
How did this kid know all this?
Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, and the maid raised her eyebrows, her anger rising once more.
Could it be that this guy secretly investigated her situation at the Bloodline Sacred Land to see the owner?
Just as she was about to explode in anger, Qin Chen spoke again: "Your bloodline should be of the Yin attribute. To alleviate your pain, you have been secretly consuming some spirit medicine that eases the meridians and warms the energy sea while also following the prescription from the Bloodline Sacred Land. The problem you are facing should be caused by a blockage in your bloodline. However, after taking these spirit medicines, the problem hasn't lessened; instead, it has worsened. Yes, you are likely even sicker now."
"You... how do you know?"
The maid's mouth dropped open in shock, her eyes widening once again.
It was normal for someone at the Bloodline Sacred Land to find out about her issues, but she had never mentioned to anyone about secretly taking spirit medicines to soothe her meridians, which led to her increased pain. How could he see through it so easily?
She had been dealing with this problem for some time now. Even the owner had not noticed, yet this guy could tell at a glance. How was he able to do that?
"Regardless of how I know, I can only say that not only are you ill, but it's also quite serious."
Shaking his head, Qin Chen sighed, "If it's not handled well, I suggest you buy a coffin. It won't be long before you will need it."
Everyone was dumbfounded. What did this kid mean? Was he cursing that the maid of the Alchemy Pavilion was about to die?
"You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Xu Long was overjoyed upon hearing this. Without waiting for the maid's order, he slapped his hand towards Qin Chen.
The maid lived in the Alchemy Pavilion, and if there was a problem, wouldn't the Pavilion Master notice? Qin Chen's nonsense was just giving him a chance to make a name for himself.
