In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

Wiping away her tears with her sleeve, she firmly agreed.

Zhang Wuji could only watch dejectedly from the side, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word, and finally could only dryly say, "Be careful on the road."

From that point on, everyone went their separate ways.

Zhou Zhiruo kept turning back to look at Gu Hanyuan, but unfortunately she could only see his back.

With Chang Yuchun leading the way, they quickly found the location of Butterfly Valley.

Butterfly Valley has a complex terrain, and thick fog often hangs outside the valley, which explains why Hu Qingniu lived in seclusion here without anyone knowing.

After the three met Hu Qingniu, Chang Yuchun did not seek medical treatment for his own injuries first, but instead hoped that Hu would treat Zhang Wuji.

Actually, the cold poison in Zhang Wuji's body is not urgent at all. Chang Yuchun still spoke up for him first, which can only be described as unparalleled loyalty and righteousness.

Even someone like Gu Hanyuan admired him.

Hu Qingniu, however, said he would not treat those who were not members of the Ming Cult.

However, this time Zhang Wuji didn't need to hide his identity. He was both the grandson of the White-browed Eagle King and the adopted son of the Golden-haired Lion King, making him half a member of the Ming Cult.

However, Hu Qingniu hesitated for a moment and then refused, saying that he would not break the rules unless Zhang Wuji joined the Ming Cult himself.

In her early years, the Purple-Robed Dragon King Dai Qisi also came to him for medical treatment for her husband, but he refused her as well. Naturally, he would not make an exception for Zhang Wuji now.

Chang Yuchun, however, said he would exchange his own life for Zhang Wuji's.

Unfortunately, Hu Qingniu had a stubborn temper, and when that temper flared up, he refused to treat Chang Yuchun's injuries.

Zhang Wuji's desperate pleas were of no use.

After figuring out Hu Qingniu's temperament, Gu Hanyuan provoked Hu Qingniu by mentioning that Zhang Wuji's cold poison was difficult to cure.

Hu Qingniu initially didn't believe it, but after taking Zhang Wuji's pulse, he was surprised by the severity of the "Xuanming Divine Palm" poison, even he wasn't confident he could cure it.

They were also curious about the Blazing Sun Pill that Zhang Wuji had taken, which could suppress the cold poison for a year.

Afterwards, Hu Qingniu began to treat Zhang Wuji. In order to better understand the cold poison, he even neutralized the effects of the Lieyang Pill first.

This caused Zhang Wuji great distress, as the cold poison began to flare up.

Fortunately, Hu Qingniu was indeed quite capable, and in the end, he managed to suppress the cold poison.

Zhang Wuji, however, was very worried about Chang Yuchun.

After being refused treatment by Hu Qingniu again, Chang Yuchun decided to learn medicine on his own.

Hu Qingniu was stubborn but soft-hearted. Since Zhang Wuji was able to find another way to bypass the rules he had set, he naturally wouldn't object.

However, Chang Yuchun was seriously injured, and it was hard to say whether he could be treated in time.

After seeing that Hu Qingniu had no objections, Gu Hanyuan followed Zhang Wuji to read medical books.

With his photographic memory and instant comprehension, he learned faster than Zhang Wuji, and in just two days he was confident in curing Chang Yuchun.

Now that he could save Chang Yuchun, Gu Hanyuan decided to take action.

So that Zhang Wuji won't learn it and then let him show off.

Incidentally, it would also be a way to curry favor with Chang Yuchun.

Although Chang Yuchun was surprised that Gu Hanyuan wanted to treat him, he decided to give it a shot and did not refuse, letting Gu Hanyuan do as he pleased.

Although Zhang Wuji was worried, he ultimately chose to trust Gu Hanyuan.

After all, her mother, Yin Susu, had said many good things about Gu Hanyuan to her.

Gu Hanyuan used a few needles to release Chang Yuchun's stagnant blood, then brewed some medicine for him, and sure enough, his injuries began to improve.

Hu Qingniu was very surprised when he was observing in secret. Someone could actually learn medical skills in just a few days. If Gu Hanyuan hadn't been a disciple of the Wudang Sect, he would have wanted to take him on as a disciple.

After curing Chang Yuchun, I received an A-level rating and 1000 villain points.

As expected, interrupting Zhang Wuji's show-off act, even saving someone, can still earn the villain's approval.

A few days later, Chang Yuchun's injuries were indeed healed.

"Brother Gu, I am deeply grateful. I will help you whenever you need anything in the future. Unfortunately, I have important matters to attend to and cannot stay any longer."

Chang Yuchun thanked Gu Hanyuan and then took the opportunity to say goodbye.

"Brother Chang is unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness. Since I, Gu, have the ability, I will naturally not stand by and watch someone die. Until we meet again."

Gu Hanyuan didn't try to stop him; in fact, it would have been quite troublesome for Chang Yuchun to stay.

Zhang Wuji also stepped forward and asked a few questions.

However, because there was no scene where he intervened to save people, his relationship with Chang Yuchun was not the same as the original brotherhood of life and death.

After Chang Yuchun left, Gu Hanyuan also tried to treat Zhang Wuji, but as expected, he made no progress except to exhaust him.

As expected, rudimentary medical skills were insufficient to cure the cold poison of the "Mysterious Dark Palm".

Just like martial arts skills, medical skills can also be upgraded using villain points, but there's no need for that.

Surprisingly, after messing with Zhang Wuji, he actually received a B rating and 500 villain points.

Unfortunately, when Gu Hanyuan suggested, with a subtle expression, that he wanted to continue trying to treat Zhang Wuji, Hu Qingniu stopped him.

Hu Qingniu continued to treat Zhang Wuji after that.

Gu Hanyuan first spent 2600 villain points to raise his innate mid-stage realm to the innate peak.

Under the pretext of going out to purchase supplies, they secretly spread rumors about Hu Qingniu in Butterfly Valley, even including the ways he could get in and out.

The purpose was to bring out Granny Golden Flower, who is also Dai Qisi, the Purple-Robed Dragon King, as soon as possible.

After all, he didn't want to waste two years in Butterfly Valley with Zhang Wuji.

Meanwhile, Gu Hanyuan's puppet avatar had already entered Dali territory.

He found an opportunity to use "location teleportation" to switch places with the puppet, letting the puppet take his place and wait in Butterfly Valley.

Gu Hanyuan then began to inquire about the location of Wuliang Mountain.

P.S.: Wutian's true identity is about to officially begin causing trouble.

Chapter 22: Intercepting Duan Yu, and incidentally digging a pit.

Gu Hanyuan learned that the Eastern and Western branches of the Wuliang Sword Sect were about to hold their once-every-five-years martial arts competition at the Sword Lake Palace.

Along the way, we encountered many martial arts figures who had come to witness the ceremony.

It seems that Gu Hanyuan arrived just in time.

The Wuliang Sword Sect has a grand and impressive name, but in reality, it doesn't even qualify as a second-rate sect.

Gu Hanyuan stealthily bypassed everyone and arrived at the forbidden area of ​​the Wuliang Sword Sect - Wuliang Jade Wall.

There are often legends about "immortals dancing with swords" associated with Wuliang Jade Bi.

In reality, it was merely a reflection of Wu Yazi and Li Qiu of the Xiaoyao Sect practicing swordsmanship in the secluded Langhuan Paradise.

When Gu Hanyuan arrived at the location of the Boundless Jade Wall, he saw a huge waterfall cascading down from a cliff tens of meters high, which was quite a magnificent sight.

The cliff, tens of meters high, was an insurmountable barrier for the Wuliang Sword Sect.

But for Gu Hanyuan, it was just a little troublesome.

The Wudang "Ladder Cloud Leap" is not fast, and its agility is only average, but its ability to climb straight up and down is unparalleled in the martial arts world.

As long as it's not as smooth as a mirror and there's something to hold onto, with enough internal strength, there are almost no cliffs that you can't climb.

Gu Hanyuan's "Ladder to the Clouds" technique has reached a high level of proficiency, making it easy for him to descend a cliff several tens of meters high.

He lifted the "Ladder to the Clouds" and leaped downwards, lightly touching a protruding rock, which abruptly reduced his descent speed.

After several attempts, it landed smoothly.

Gu Hanyuan walked directly through the waterfall curtain and entered the cave.

The most eye-catching thing is a jade statue in the cave.

The jade statue is so lifelike that not only are the clothes on its body carved in the finest detail, but its face is also indistinguishable from that of a real person. No matter which angle you stand from, it feels as if you are being looked at by the jade statue.

Gu Hanyuan stared at the jade statue, somewhat dazed.

Suddenly, I felt a chill run down my spine; my back was already covered in cold sweat.

Gu Hanyuan wasn't Duan Yu, who already knew the ins and outs of the jade statue. Logically, he shouldn't have been attracted by it, but to his surprise, he was also captivated.

This jade statue even has a hypnotic effect.

No wonder Duan Yu could never escape the influence of the jade statue throughout his life.

When he encountered Wang Yuyan, who bore an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to the jade statue, he seemed to lose his mind and became a devoted admirer.

Even modern-day simps would be moved to tears upon seeing this.

It turns out that the jade statue has hypnotic properties.

I wonder how far Duan Yu would go if he saw Li Qiu, who was only slightly different from Li Canghai, who was the original form of the jade statue.

Hugging a woman in her nineties by the legs and shouting "Fairy Sister"?

Gu Hanyuan imagined the scene and couldn't help but find it strange.
