Li Jianshi brushed her hand away and pursed her lips: "I want to see him."

Her Majesty the Empress laughed: "You're pushing your luck. Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Actually, no, she wouldn't. If she wanted to kill them, she would use someone else. Because if she did it herself or sent someone else, what would Wu Qiong think of her?

"You can give it a try," Li Jianshi said without fear.

Her confidence did not come from Wu Qiong, but from the Xuan Tian Sect, the number one sect in the world, behind her.

The empress, who had connections to the Xuantian Sect, was murdered, and her master had promised to suppress the matter upon her return. Since the Xuantian Sect had already shown goodwill, the Empress of Great Zhou would not be so unwise.

Unless... she's going to turn against the Xuantian Sect.

Bai Xuanji sighed, thinking of Wu Qiong's words, "I want them all." "Alright, come in with me, but we can't stay too long. Qiong needs to rest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Jianshi also yielded.

At this moment, the situation is beyond our control, and besides, it's no big deal to admit defeat a little in order to see Wu Qiong.

Bai Xuanji then said to the two who were abstaining from sex, "You two should come too. I was wrong before, and on behalf of the Great Zhou, I thank you both for your unwavering support of Aqiong."

"Your Majesty is too kind." Jie Se said solemnly, "The relationship between my two monks and Brother Wu is like that of brothers. Besides, our two monks were actually acting in our own self-interest. If we had abandoned him at that time, it would have left a flaw in our hearts, which would have been detrimental to our future efforts to build our hearts."

Ye Qingxuan replied, "Master is right. Moreover, Brother Wu did not abandon us two at that time and broke through the encirclement alone. Your Majesty need not worry about it."

Bai Xuanji pondered for a while: "In any case, I still want to thank you both. How about this, there are some lost manuals from Shaolin and Taiqing in the palace. I will send someone to retrieve them and give them to you both, which will be a way of returning them to their rightful owners."

Someone praised her poverty, which made her feel good.

This can also be seen as a gesture of goodwill towards Shaolin Taiqing.

However, they were wrong about one thing: Wu Qiong really did intend to abandon the two of them and run away alone, but he just didn't manage to escape...

The two men, with solemn expressions, bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Perhaps this is a case of surviving a great calamity and being blessed with good fortune. The rare book in the royal collection is extremely important to Shaolin Taiqing. If they can retrieve it and bring it back to their sect, then no one will stop them from wandering around again.

Actually, they stumbled upon this by accident. If the two of them had run away back then, the Great Zhou and Shaolin Taiqing would have been locked in a life-or-death struggle.

Therefore, the saying "do good deeds and good people will be rewarded" is still very true.

The three followed Her Majesty the Empress into the palace. Bai Xuanji asked them to wait in the reception room, then went into the inner room and carried Wu Qiong out.

That's right, it was a princess carry. The Empress, who was 1.8 meters tall, was about the same height as Wu Qiong, and with her imperial aura growing stronger, it looked perfectly natural for her to carry the seriously injured Wu Qiong in her arms.

Her Majesty the Empress carefully placed Wu Qiong on the reclining chair that had been specially made for him, and said to the three of them, "Don't stay too long, Qiong needs to rest."

She wanted to continue petting the cat.

Wu Qiong smiled and said, "Oh, Shi'er."

"Poor brother..." Li Jianshi's eyes reddened slightly.

She hated herself for not killing Long Aotian in a secluded place, which resulted in her being seen by a group of onlookers and even being recorded in the character introduction on the Human Ranking.

Hmm? A ranking of people? She suddenly realized something.

This list of people was produced by the Six Doors, and the information was provided by the Myriad Elephant Pavilion. Let's keep the grudge against the Myriad Elephant Pavilion in mind for now, but the Six Doors is Bai Xuanji's territory!

She secretly glared at Bai Xuanji.

So you have a pot too!

Bai Xuanji turned her head away, feeling slightly guilty.

Not only the Six Doors, but also the Vientiane Building belongs to her...

After exchanging glances, the two women realized that they were all the same.

Completely oblivious to this, Wu Qiong began exchanging pleasantries with Ye Qingxuan, who was abstaining from sex:

"Are you two alright?"

"I'm alright. Although it burns my essence, fortunately, Shaolin doesn't have a brain-dead technique like the 'Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique,' so I only need to rest for ten or fifteen days. However, I can't fight anyone during this time," Jie Se said with a smile.

"I am the same." This is Ye Qingxuan, who is becoming increasingly insignificant.

"Sigh...it seems I'll be bedridden for the rest of my life. I was thinking we could start a 'Heavenly Crippled and Earthly Imperfect' organization." Wu tried to find humor in his misery.

Jie Se said solemnly, "Brother Wu, this humble monk will immediately send a message back to the temple to request a few Great Rejuvenation Pills. The Great Rejuvenation Pill is a secret medicine of our Shaolin Temple, capable of healing the dead and restoring flesh to bones. Although this is just propaganda... I believe it will be of considerable benefit to you, Brother Wu."

"Thank you very much, Master!" Wu Qiong said with a look of delight.

Although the Great Rejuvenation Pill was of little use to his injuries, he would still try to trick Xuanji into giving him as many as he could. He had already given them to Xiaobai Shi'er, so it would be unreasonable not to give them to Xuanji as well.

Besides, if all else fails, he could sell it! With the prestigious name of Shaolin Temple, the money from selling this one pill could probably support him for the rest of his life, provided he doesn't squander it.

"It's alright, as long as Brother Wu remembers to share in the profits when you sell them later." Jie Se saw through his true nature at a glance.

"Sure thing, sure thing." Wu Qiong pretended not to understand his sarcasm and shamelessly said, "We'll split the profits 10/90."

"This..." Jie Se hesitated, "Although I will provide the goods, the sales depend entirely on Brother Wu. Would it be inappropriate for me to take nine?"

"Master, you're overthinking it. I'll take nine and you'll take one."

"..." Jiese decided not to ask the temple for the Great Rejuvenation Pill anymore.

Seeing the atmosphere gradually becoming awkward, he casually changed the subject: "Brother Wu, the leader of the Taiqing Sect, Master Ziyang, is known in the martial arts world as the 'Three Perfections Immortal Master.' Why don't you have the Taoist priest invite his master to take a look at you?"

Before Wu Qiong could speak, Ye Qingxuan spoke up.

He hesitated, saying, "This...isn't that inappropriate..."

Jiese's eyes, as big as copper bells, widened: "What, Taoist priest, you don't consider Brother Wu a brother? I didn't realize, Taoist priest, that you're quite handsome, but your heart is so petty."

"Senior brother, you misunderstand. It's not that I'm unwilling, but my master is completely ignorant of medicine. How could he possibly treat Brother Wu?" Ye Qingxuan quickly explained.

"This humble monk is not well-educated, don't try to fool me! Your master is known as a master of medicine, Taoism, and martial arts, how could he not be knowledgeable in medicine!" Jie Se sneered.

"This... sigh, well then, I'll be frank." Ye Qingxuan retorted, "What you've said, Senior Brother, is just hearsay. In reality, the nickname given to my master within the sect isn't exactly a good one..."

"How so?" Wu Qiong became interested. In the background story of the game in his previous life, Master Ziyang was in seclusion, so he was also curious about what the real Master Ziyang was like.

"My master's three unique skills are not medicine, Taoism, and martial arts, but... but... lust, gambling, and drugs..." Ye Qingxuan lowered his head in shame.

"what?"

"Alas... My master often went down the mountain to spend the night in brothels, and he was addicted to gambling and always had a pipe in his hand. Because the elders in the sect could not persuade him to move, and they could not beat him in a fight, they gave him the nickname 'Three Perfections' to disgust him. Who would have thought that this nickname would spread like wildfire and gradually become the Three Perfections of Medicine, Taoism, and Martial Arts."

Seeing that the two were speechless, he continued, "Moreover, the sect no longer calls my master 'Three Perfections.' The elders have given him a new nickname, 'The Five Poisons Taoist,' meaning he's involved in all five vices: eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and drugs..."
