Chapter 72: Chapter 28: From Dragons, Gu Xi and Liu Zhao
Gu Yi was unsure whether this could be considered a targeting of historical amendments.
But in terms of medical technology of this era.
Gu Xi, at the age of only ten, any illness could potentially threaten his life.
Moreover, looking at the current situation of the Gu Clan.
If Gu Xi were to die young without Gu Yi’s intervention, and Gu Liang later passed away.
The Gu Clan would definitely weaken rapidly.
Unless another genius were to appear, they would certainly fade into obscurity, disappearing from history just as originally.
Sighing deeply, Gu Yi naturally wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen idly.
Even though he didn’t know if it would be effective.
He still activated the lottery interface with a thought.
Instantly, a prompt appeared again.
With no lottery UI, it was straightforward, merely asking how many times Gu Yi wanted to draw.
Gu Yi pondered for a moment and chose to draw five times.
Each lottery draw required consuming 10,000 achievement points.
As time passed in the game, people across the land and their endless offerings to Gu Kang, along with the second generation of the Gu clan children dying one after another, unlocked some ordinary achievements, which brought some achievement points to Gu Yi.
He now had over 330,000 achievement points.
Gu Yi naturally couldn’t bet it all.
Not to mention whether he could draw the item necessary to save Gu Xi.
Even if he saved him, he needed to consider how much achievement Gu Xi could accomplish to bring more achievement points to himself.
Gu Yi had to reserve some achievement points to cope with the great chaos famous throughout history coming up!
Nearly 300,000.
That was Gu Yi’s current bottom line.
[Draw successful.]

[...]
[Current Luck Value: 11%]
(Upon reaching 100% Luck Value, a Celestial or Divine Level item is guaranteed.)
A series of notifications flashed by instantly.
Perhaps because in the previous first free draw, he drew a Divine Level item.
Even though he had obtained the things he wanted, Gu Yi didn’t feel a bit excited.
What are these things?
Each can only be used on one person and some even have side effects?
They’re far inferior to the effects of a Divine Level item, right?
What about this luck value?
A hundred draws guarantee an SSR, huh?
Gu Yi sighed lightly, then directly opened the inventory, pondering over the items inside.
"Isn’t the Disease-Curing Charm overlapping a bit with the Longevity Card?"
Living out a natural lifespan...
Solving an illness once...
After thinking it over, Gu Yi directly used the "Longevity Card" on Gu Xi.
Gu Xi’s ability was unquestionably acknowledged.
The upcoming period would be a crucial time for the entire Eastern Han.
Having such a person as a backup truly provided some peace of mind for Gu Yi.
...
Night enveloped the Champion Marquis Mansion in darkness.
Inside, candle flames flickered.
Looking at the heavy-hearted expression of Gu Liang and then at the pale face of Gu Xi lying on the bed, Liu Qing couldn’t help but sigh, "Champion Marquis must take care of your health."
"You mustn’t be overly sorrowful."
"His Majesty told me that this young age still requires reliance on the Champion Marquis, and the Great Han still needs reliance on the Champion Marquis."
Liu Qing’s voice was exceedingly young, yet his expression remained remarkably composed.
"Minister, thanks for His Majesty’s concern."
Responded Gu Liang, yet his face remained deeply burdened.
His heart was indeed in turmoil.
Up until now, how could he not recognize the talents of the Gu Clan children?
Among all these people.
Only Gu Xi caught his attention.
But now that Gu Xi had fallen ill, how could he not be anxious?
Gu Liang was aware of his lack of talent.
He had trembled through the years out of fear that the Gu Clan would become desolate under his hand. After looking like there might be some hope, who could have foreseen such a situation?
Seeing Gu Liang’s expression, Liu Qing sighed again, unable to resist saying, "Champion Marquis."
"His Majesty said he has the grand ambitions of Emperor Xiaowen and Emperor Xiaowu, along with the far-reaching aspirations of Emperor Xiaoming."
"You must remember to take good care of your health."
His gaze tightly fixed on Gu Liang.
Yet Gu Liang seemed sincerely troubled, paying no mind to the meaning within his words.
Just then, a young yet determined voice suddenly sounded:
"Please, Your Excellency, convey to His Majesty."
"Father will certainly take care of his health, to await His Majesty’s decree, to forge a prosperous era together as Grandfather did with Emperor Ming!"
The unexpected voice startled the two inside the room, who instinctively glanced towards the source of the voice.
They saw Gu Xi, who at some point had opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
His face no longer as pale, his eyes gleaming brightly, as if rekindled with vitality and vigor.
