The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 400 Successor of Quanxing

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm not going to kill him, I'm just giving him a big gift."

As Wu Chengyu spoke, he pushed Hou Tonghai, who had been slapped on the head, away. Hou Tonghai had thought he was going to die, but to his surprise, he was unharmed.

Wu Chengyu seemed to have something poured into his head, but the idiot couldn't quite put his finger on it. He just felt a warm, comfortable sensation on his head, as if someone was scratching an itch. The idiot even groaned a couple of times.

Sha Tongtian and Peng Lianhu exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with fear. They did not possess the insight of Hong Qigong, nor had they heard of the martial arts secrets of a hundred years ago. The effect of the Shifting Stars was truly unheard of. Their fierce attack had been neutralized in such a way that they dared not make another move.

"Junior brother, how are you?" Sha Tongtian asked with concern as he approached Hou Tonghai to check on his injuries.

"Senior brother, I'm fine. My head just feels so good, even better than when I slept with a girl. My head feels lighter."

Upon closer inspection, Sha Tongtian was astonished to discover that the three fleshy growths on Hou Tonghai's head were actually shrinking continuously, and even as he spoke, they were reduced to only one-third of their original size.

"My junior brother was speaking rudely just now. I thank Mr. Tian for showing mercy, but I don't know what he meant by that."

"It's nothing. I just saw the tumor on this friend's head and realized that he must have suffered a lot because of it since childhood. I'm just helping him get rid of this ailment."

The three tumors on Hou Tonghai's head were not congenital, but rather caused by a problem with the yin and yang energies in his body, affecting his hormones and endocrine system. Wu Chengyu simply helped him regulate his yin and yang, solving the problem at its root.

There is still one-third left. In a few more days, these three sarcomas will completely disappear, and at most, three white spots like bib scars will appear on the forehead.

Sha Tongtian was shocked. He and Hou Tonghai had grown up together and studied under the same master. Hou Tonghai had started to grow a fleshy growth on his head when he was about eleven or twelve years old. It didn't hurt or itch, but it was extremely ugly. Hou Tonghai had suffered a lot of contempt since childhood.

On one occasion, this scoundrel even cut off the tumor with a knife, but not long after, the tumor grew back, and no one could do anything about it.

But who would have thought that today, with just a gentle slap from Wu Chengyu, the tumor would start to shrink on its own, and judging from this, it would never recur.

Sha Tongtian was actually ranked first in martial arts among the top experts under Wanyan Honglie, but he never imagined that his high level of martial arts could help people treat tumors. However, now was not the time to dwell on this. He just felt a deep sense of apprehension towards Wu Chengyu.

It's one thing for someone with high martial arts skills to kill with a wave of their hand, but to be able to save someone with just a slap is completely beyond Sha Tongtian's comprehension.

Hou Tonghai, on the other hand, finally realized that his tumor was about to disappear, and he was overjoyed. He returned to his seat and muttered to himself. This idiot began to worry that without the tumor, he could no longer be called the Three-Headed Dragon. What majestic name should he use from now on?

After the misunderstanding, the atmosphere in the main hall was not so stiff. At least Wu Chengyu was showing goodwill, and the people of the Zhao Prince's Mansion had to greet him with smiles.

"May I ask where Mr. Tian is from and which sect he belongs to? I have never heard of your reputation before. It is not that I am suspicious, but as a prince of the Jin Kingdom, one should at least know some of the people around him."

Wu Chengyu smiled. This time, unlike in Xixia, he didn't have the identity fabricated by Hong Niangzi to help him cover up his identity. However, he had already come up with a plan.

"In response to Your Highness's question, I was born in Jiangnan, near Hangzhou, but I was adopted by my master at a young age and followed him to learn his skills and travel around the world."

I am unknown in the martial arts world because I have never been a member of the martial arts community. In fact, I am a Taoist priest, but I have left the monastic life.

Wanyan Honglie's eyes narrowed. The Taoist's identity was indeed unexpected. These Taoist practitioners often hid in some deep mountain forest, living a life of purity and few desires, without interacting with the outside world, and were very difficult to investigate.

"In that case, may I ask which Taoist temple Mr. Tian comes from?"

"To be honest, Your Highness, have you ever heard of the name Quanxing?"

The people around him were completely bewildered. The Quanxing Daoist sect had disappeared for thousands of years, so how could these commoners know about it? However, Wanyan Honglie had received a good education since childhood and had some knowledge of history. He quickly remembered what Quanxing represented.
Therefore, it is understandable that no one knew about Tian Boguang before. The Quanxing Taoist sect was already in decline and had been suppressed by other Taoist sects for thousands of years. The remaining lineages had all disappeared and gone into hiding, so how could they be known by outsiders?

Moreover, this lineage, which has been attacked by other Taoist sects for thousands of years, must have some unique skills, so it is reasonable for a master to suddenly emerge.

"I have long known of the name Quanxing. Yang Zhuzi is the true ancestor of Taoism, and his knowledge is unfathomable. It is a pity that the successors of the Quanxing Taoist sect are hard to find in the world. I never expected to meet such a master today."

"Your Highness is indeed learned. The Quanxing Sect has long been defunct in name only. Although I have inherited the Quanxing lineage, I am not a quiet and inactive person. After achieving mastery of martial arts, I could no longer bear the loneliness in the mountains and wanted to enjoy the riches of the world."

However, Quanxing emphasizes that all six desires should be properly satisfied and never suppresses one's desires. Tian's desire to experience the pleasures of the mortal world is not considered to be contrary to the true meaning of Quanxing.

As for coming to Prince Zhao's residence, it's simply a matter of fate. This Brother Liang was the first to make the appointment, and his manners were impeccable, not causing me any dislike. This is fate. I, Tian, ​​only seek wealth and honor and am willing to serve Your Highness."

At this moment, Sha Tongtian, who was standing nearby, roughly understood. In the martial arts world, the Buddhist and Taoist sects have always possessed unknown abilities. This Tian Boguang was from the Quanxing sect, and even the prince knew about it. He must be from a hidden Taoist sect, which explained why he had the ability to cure Hou Tonghai's tumor. "No wonder Brother Tian could cure my junior brother's stubborn illness. He is a true Taoist master. I was rude just now. Please forgive me, Brother Tian."

Wu Chengyu returned the greeting slightly, but his words made Wanyan Honglie stand up.

"Taoist internal cultivation methods emphasize the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements within the human body. Your junior brother's intractable illness is simply caused by an imbalance of Yin and Yang within the body, just like the strange illness that the prince is currently suffering from. As long as the Yin and Yang are properly regulated, it will naturally heal without medicine."

Wu Chengyu knew that if he told the other party that he was a member of Quanxing, Wanyan Honglie would naturally not be able to find out his background. However, Wanyan Honglie would definitely not reduce his suspicion of him because of a few words.

In order to be able to accompany Wanyan Honglie to the Mongolian grasslands in the future, one must gain his trust, for example, by helping Wanyan Honglie regrow his hair.

Actually, he didn't need to lift a finger. Wanyan Honglie's condition was temporary; he would soon grow hair on his body. Wu Chengyu was just accelerating the process. Since it was his own doing, it was naturally a piece of cake.

Having fallen into his own trap, Wu Chengyu was still inexplicably grateful to himself; he felt perfectly justified in making this deal.

Wanyan Honglie was overjoyed. He had just seen Hou Tonghai's tumor disappear with a gentle tap from Wu Chengyu, and he was already full of praise for Wu Chengyu's skills. However, he hadn't thought about it happening to himself.

He was, after all, a prince, and he usually paid the most attention to his appearance and demeanor. Who would have thought that he would contract this strange disease, causing all the hair on his body to fall out. His body was still okay, but his head was completely bald.

The key thing is that his skin has become fair and delicate, almost as fair as his queen. Now Wanyan Honglie's head looks like a peeled hard-boiled egg with facial features.

Since he contracted this disease, countless people have mocked him behind his back. Fortunately, these people dared not act recklessly because of his status as a prince.

What I hate most are his brothers, especially Prince Rong. They were already fighting fiercely, and now they've even stormed into Prince Zhao's residence several times to make sarcastic remarks to his face.

What upset Wanyan Honglie the most was that his father, the emperor, also hinted that he should not go out unless necessary, as it would damage the imperial dignity.

Since ancient times, when emperors chose princes to succeed to the throne, those with disabilities or even serious illnesses were automatically excluded. This was undoubtedly the most devastating blow to Wanyan Honglie.

In recent days, Wanyan Honglie had consulted countless famous doctors and used numerous secret medicines, all to no avail. Who would have thought that this Tian Boguang would claim to be able to cure him? Considering that Tian Boguang had just easily resolved Hou Tonghai's tumor and that he came from the ancient Quanxing Daoist sect, Wanyan Honglie immediately saw a glimmer of hope.

"If Mr. Tian can cure my strange illness, it will be no less than saving me from fire and water. From this moment on, you will be the number one retainer of my Zhao Prince's Mansion. I will never fail you in this life."

"Your Highness, please don't thank me yet. We'll talk about it after you're cured. I won't stand on ceremony with you then."

"Is there anything I can prepare? No matter how rare or unusual the medicinal herbs are, as long as they exist in this world, I will fetch them for you."

"There is no need for any medicinal herbs. All supernatural powers are sufficient within oneself. Your Highness, please extend your hand."

Wu Chengyu grasped Wanyan Honglie's pulse point and poured his internal energy into Wanyan Honglie's body, but did not immediately help Wanyan Honglie harmonize his yin and yang.

If treating a serious illness is something that can be resolved in a few quick steps, people won't appreciate it. There needs to be some sense of ceremony to let the other party know that it was hard-won.

Wu Chengyu's internal energy circulated continuously within Wanyan Honglie's body, first making the guy feel warm all over, and even his bones, meridians, and internal organs felt like they were being massaged. Wanyan Honglie almost groaned like Hou Tonghai.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Chengyu spoke up: "What follows will be a bit painful, Your Highness must be patient."

Wu Chengyu still did not treat Wanyan Honglie. He used the Life and Death Chain and Life and Death Talisman on him to reduce the pain level so that it was not unbearable, but the intense pain and itching still made Wanyan Honglie suffer unbearably.

After this series of actions, Wanyan Honglie felt even more grateful to Wu Chengyu. In his opinion, Wu Chengyu was genuinely treating him, and the effect was unforgettable. Little did he know that Wu Chengyu was up to his mischievous nature again, deliberately giving this guy a hard time.

After all this, Wu Chengyu began to harmonize the Yin and Yang energies within Wanyan Honglie's body, stimulating the growth of his body hair once again.

The process was quick; after Wu Chengyu finished his operation, he slowly released Wanyan Honglie.

"Your Highness, the Yin and Yang energies in your body have returned to normal. In just a few days, the hair on your body will grow back."

"Is that so? I thank Mr. Tian."

"If Your Highness wishes to express your gratitude, you should wait until your hair grows back before doing so. I, Tian, ​​have always refused any reward without having done anything in return."
