The Return of the Condor Heroes: Starting with Conquering Huang Rong

"Ying'er, it's me."

Yang Guo knocked on the door and waited for a response before entering.

The woman rested for the first half of the day and spent the second half healing her wounds and refining the medicinal power.

As for the injury to her meridians, Yang Guo has been tending to her every day, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should be almost healed in another two or three days.

She already knew how to heal herself, so she naturally recovered faster.

Now that her face has regained its color, she looks even more charming and beautiful.

Truly, she is as gentle as a willow in spring.

Her expression held a poignant sadness, and her brows exuded the gentle elegance of someone from a scholarly family.

Although his breathing was weak, it carried the languor and haggardness of someone recovering from a long illness.

Those eyes were still clear and bright, enough to melt anyone's heart at first glance.

"Are you feeling better?" Yang Guo asked, sitting skillfully on the bed.

I took her small hand and checked her veins and injuries.

"I'm recovering very quickly," Cheng Ying said softly, her head bowed.

She wasn't used to his intimacy, but it was clear she wasn't resisting and was trying to adapt.

Yang Guo pretended that her discomfort did not exist.

He shamelessly continued to examine her injuries.

"no."

Cheng Ying clutched the front of her clothes.

This person is really something. Even though you were the one who bandaged her up, she was unconscious.

I've been recovering for several days now, do you still want to help me change the gauze?

Yang Guo didn't insist either.

He tidied her bangs, which were slightly disheveled from her resistance.

Then I helped her nourish her meridians.

He casually started talking about what happened today.

Cheng Ying, on the other hand, quite enjoyed this kind of interaction.

This daily interaction made her very happy.

She wasn't a free spirit to begin with, and this gentle conversation finally made her feel at home.

It's not the kind of home where you live as a dependent.

It was she who built the family.

Now that she has pledged her life to him, although she still maintains a woman's reserve, she never intended to keep it up for long.

Let everything take its natural course; things will fall into place when they come to fruition.

As for arranged marriages by parents and matchmakers.

Although the people of Peach Blossom Island respect their teachers and value the Way, they have always been rebellious.

At worst, she can act first and ask for permission later.

Feeling the warmth entering her body, her heart melted.

"Well, although Miss Lu is a bit sharp-tongued, she has the heart of a chivalrous woman. But that's to be expected, since she travels the world alone and needs thorns to protect herself."

Yang Guo nodded in agreement.

He naturally didn't say that this woman was Lu Wushuang.

I've said everything else that needed to be said.

He forgot that Cheng Ying didn't know her cousin was lame, and he couldn't comment on how a woman he was meeting for the first time looked in front of her, lest she get jealous.

The reason we don't say these things outright is...

Firstly, Cheng Ying was injured, and Yang Guo didn't want the fiery and eccentric Lu Wushuang to affect his mood.

Secondly, since Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo didn't have time to chase after her for any secret manuals, they just let her play by herself.

Thirdly, since he has already pointed out where Cheng Ying is, and she herself will not come, what can be done?

"However, this woman does resemble my cousin quite a bit."

"His surname is Lu, he's covered in thorns, but he has a good heart."

"But she was captured by Li Mochou, and I don't know whether she is alive or dead."

At this, Cheng Ying's mood also dropped.

This made Yang Guo even consider capturing Lu Wushuang to comfort her.

"Don't worry, I don't think Li Mochou is necessarily as ruthless as the rumors suggest."

"Your cousin will definitely be fine."

Cheng Ying nodded. She had a life-saving handkerchief with her that day, and as long as her cousin didn't say she was her uncle's daughter, Li Mochou probably wouldn't kill her.

She naturally thought her cousin was clever and would know how to protect herself.

Yang Guo felt sorry for her when he saw that she was in low spirits.

He pulled her into his arms.

"Don't."

Cheng Ying was startled and quickly crossed her arms to cover her chest.

Fortunately, Yang Guo did not make any further moves, which relieved her.

But an uninvited guest soon barged in.

Guo Fu and Chen Qing entered the room one after the other.

The girl was breezy and energetic, like a never-ending wind.

Yang Guo calmly put down Cheng Ying, whose pretty face was flushed.

Chen Qing was led to the front so that Cheng Ying could examine her facial injuries.

Cheng Ying looked solemn.

"Although the rescue was timely, the girl was too brutal, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to fully recover."

Guo Fu became anxious upon hearing this.

She finally had a "disciple" she could teach.

She took it very seriously.

"Can Grandpa do it?"

Cheng Ying pondered for a moment and then shook her head.

"There is someone in the martial arts world who might be able to cure him."

"Who?" Guo Fu asked even more urgently than the original owner.

"I've heard my master mention it. There's a herbalist in the martial arts world who lives in Hundred Herbs Valley. He's an expert in both medicine and poison, and perhaps he has a way to heal Miss Chen's injuries."

"However, this person has three incurable conditions and one ironclad rule."

Yang Guo also became interested.

However, he became much busier.

He held Chen Qing's face with one hand and supported Cheng Ying's back with the other.

Fortunately, Cheng Ying only needs to be given internal energy, and she will guide and nourish her meridians.

As for Chen Qing, at least it could reduce her pain, since his internal energy was a holy medicine for healing. Although it could not cure her external injuries, it was better than doing nothing.

However, another idle girl was a little jealous.

They also wanted to tag along.

Fortunately, I was captivated by the stories of the martial arts world that Cheng Ying told me.

Seeing that he was treating his injuries in a very relaxed manner, Cheng Ying calmed down and continued, "Those who are rich but heartless are not to be treated, those who are hypocrites are not to be treated, and those who simply don't like someone are not to be treated."

Chen Qing's cheeks were flushed, and she felt a little dizzy.

Is this movement correct?

Is this the normal behavior that a master and apprentice should exhibit?

Hmm, that makes sense from the perspective of a father and daughter.

What's going on?

She's not his daughter.

Why are you touching her face?

But his hand seemed to have a magical power, making it impossible for her to break free.

Attention then turned to Cheng Ying's words.

Yang Guo interjected, "From what I've heard, this person, though eccentric, is also quite extraordinary, a man of genuine character. So, all we need to do is find Hundred Herbs Valley?"

Chen Qing is clearly not among those who cannot be cured.

Guo Fu clicked her tongue and said, "That's why Grandpa knew about this person's existence."

Yang Guo was speechless; this girl really dared to say anything.

She even started making up stories about her maternal grandfather.

Cheng Ying opened her mouth, but no one seemed to know what to say to her.

"Fur!"

Guo Fu pouted.

Her eyes swept over Yang Guo, then she said with a wronged expression:

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. It was my fault. How about I apologize to Grandpa?"

Yang Guo smiled helplessly.

Seeing his smile return, Guo Fu immediately wanted to hug him.

But seeing his healing posture, she snorted and decided to ignore him.

Cheng Ying's voice continued to come out:

"But what's strange is that this person also has an ironclad rule."

"Self-harm is incurable."

"It is said that there has never been an exception to this day."

The other three were taken aback.

"It is said that he did not offer any assistance when his daughter committed suicide in front of him."

Yang Guo asked with a hint of disbelief, "Is there really such a heartless person?"

Cheng Ying shook her head.

"Perhaps it's a rumor or an exaggeration, but the ironclad rule is probably true."

These words silenced them for a moment.

Chen Qing, on the other hand, took it all in stride.

"It's okay, I never thought I could regain my appearance."

"Now that I have broken free of my shackles, this is the mark of my victory. Whether they are gone or not, this moment is the best for me."
