I became a prince in a martial arts world.

Chapter 330 Gift of Elixir, Gratitude

While Qi Yuntian and Xiao Ruoying were fighting, Qi Yunjiang also directed the speedboat to approach.

When Qi Yuntian was pressing down on Xiao Ruoying, Qi Yunjiang was already only a zhang away from them, and of course he heard Qi Yuntian's words.

Xiao Ruoying's identity shocked him. Qi Yuntian said he would hold a banquet to apologize. Although Qi Yunjiang was resentful, he accepted it. After all, she was from Yaocai Manor, and they couldn't afford to offend her.

But Xiao Ruoying showed no sign of knowing when to stop, instead pushing her luck and trying to kill him outright. This also filled Qi Yunjiang with murderous intent. Did she really think that Yaocai Manor was a noble family and that we wouldn't dare to kill her?

Qi Yuntian was about to make his move.

Qi Yuntian is dead.

Seeing that Qi Yuntian was clearly in the lead, but then suddenly collapsed, lifeless, clearly having been ambushed, Qi Yunjiang was shocked and abandoned his elder brother, directing the speedboat to turn around.

While giving orders, Qi Yunjiang turned around and said, "Yaocai Manor doesn't abide by the rules of the martial world. I will definitely expose your shameless faces—"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Yu pointed again.

This time he used Ming Jin (a type of internal force). Qi Yunjiang only heard a sharp "whoosh" sound, and alarm bells went off in his mind. He felt a sharp energy pierce his brow, making his brow feel sore and numb.

He tried to dodge, but it was too late.

The next moment, a numbness appeared between his eyebrows, and he was plunged into boundless darkness.

From an outsider's perspective, it looked like Qi Yunjiang was scolding someone, but suddenly he paused, froze, and then fell into the river, splashing water everywhere.

The boatman rowed the boat like a madman, and the boat sped towards the shore.

But as he rocked back, he discovered that the passenger ship had not pursued him to kill him and silence him, but instead continued sailing eastward as if nothing had happened.

Killing Qi Yuntian and Qi Yunjiang was as easy for Wang Yu as swatting two flies.

Yu Qinghou and Xiao Fumeng did not express their opinions. Although Luoxia Manor was their neighbor, they had never been on the same side, and there was no relationship between the Junshan lineage and Luoxia Manor.

The three Qi brothers bullied men and women, committed all sorts of evil deeds, and oppressed farmers and craftsmen. They only had no ordinary people in their hands, otherwise Xiao Fumeng would have wanted to act as a chivalrous knight.

They were happy to see Wang Yu take action.

Yu Qinghou, on the contrary, was interested in the martial arts that Wang Yu had just displayed. "The Invisible Needle Technique, I've only heard of it being similar to the Five Elements Insect Golden Wing Envoy."

I know a technique called the Shadowless Needle, but its power is nowhere near as formidable as the one you just displayed.

Xiao Fumeng and Xiao Ruoying both looked at Wang Yu. They both remembered that the Five Elements Insect had died at Wang Yu's hands, and that the heads of the Golden Wing Envoy, Biyun Ji, and Zhaoye Ke had been hanging at the city gate of Longshan Prefecture for a whole month.

Wang Yu said, "This is the Golden Wing Envoy's Shadowless Needle. I learned it and made some improvements. It's not good against experts, but it's much more convenient against ordinary people."

Xiao Fumeng was speechless. No matter what, Qi Yuntian was a master of the innate realm, not an ordinary person in the martial arts world.

But considering the legendary masters who died at Wang Yu's hands, including martial arts grandmasters like Hei Qiang Shi Mo and Lie Huo Lao Zu, Qi Yuntian doesn't seem like much.

Without outside interference, Xiao Ruoying solidified her foundation and gained some insights into the realm of cultivation. She excitedly shared her understanding with everyone, as well as the various uses of the Jade-Breaking Blade.

Xiao Fumeng glanced at the enthusiastic Xiao Ruoying and the smiling Wang Yu, then tugged at her husband's sleeve and quietly retreated to the side with him.

Traveling downstream for hundreds of miles in a day, they quickly returned to Junshan.

Junshan is located on the shore of an inland lake on the south bank of the Yangtze River. It is bordered by the Yangtze River to the north and Nanhu Lake to the south, and boasts beautiful scenery and pleasant landscapes.

Wang Yu also met Yu Qinghou's second disciple, Ouyang Shuo, and third disciple, Feng Ting, and he understood why Yu Qinghou had asked about...

That's about the Sanzhi Yangshen Dan (a traditional Chinese medicine formula).

Ouyang Shuo glanced at Wang Yu. Although he was curious as to why the Prince of Zhenxi would come back with his master, it was clear that Wang Yu was not a prisoner captured by Yu Qinghou.

But since his master didn't say anything, he didn't ask. He asked about something else: "May 20th is the duel between my senior brother and Wei Mantang. Shouldn't we call my senior brother back?"

Yu Qinghou nodded. "You and the third brother go and bring your senior brother and fourth junior brother back."

"Yes." Ouyang Shuo cupped his hands in greeting and was about to lead Feng Ting to pack their luggage.

"Wait a minute," Yu Qinghou said again, "spread the word in the martial arts world that Junshan wants a rare type of Ganoderma lucidum that can nourish the spirit and calm the mind, and that it must have at least three hundred years of medicinal power."

Anyone who can offer a rare type of Ganoderma lucidum, provided it doesn't violate the code of the martial world, can be helped by Junshan once, or their life can be saved in a time of crisis.

Ouyang Shuo bowed and replied, "Yes!"

Although rare Ganoderma lucidum with medicinal properties over three hundred years old is hard to find, since it was Junshan that released the news, someone will definitely come to visit. After all, although rare Ganoderma lucidum is precious, Junshan's promise is even more important.

Then he saw Wang Yu take out a porcelain bottle from his pocket, pour out a pill, and throw it to Feng Ting.

Wang Yu looked at Yu Qinghou and said, "Take the pill first, then take the tonic. When Junshan has gathered all the Ganoderma lucidum, come to me to refine the pill, but I want to share half of the profits."

The Sanzhi Nourishing Spirit Pill yielded seven pills in one batch. Sun Wenzhu, Li Yunxiu, Alde, and Xiao Ruoying each received one, leaving three pills remaining.

Feng Ting is Yu Qinghou's disciple. Yu Qinghou obviously wants to help his disciple achieve the Innate Realm. Moreover, it is not difficult for him to collect three rare Ganoderma lucidum, it is just a matter of time.

But for martial artists, time is life.

By allowing Feng Ting to advance to the Innate Realm ahead of time, not only would Yu Qinghou owe him a favor, but he could also receive half of the profits from the subsequent alchemy. No matter how you look at it, this deal is a win-win situation.

"It's a deal!"

Wang Yu's generosity was appreciated, and Yu Qinghou turned to Feng Ting, saying, "Why don't you thank the Prince of Zhenxi!"

Feng Ting blinked, and although he didn't understand, he still thanked Wang Yu honestly, "Thank you, Prince Zhenxi."

Yu Qinghou nodded. "Go back and take the pill first to get yourself in good condition. Have Shuo'er protect you while you take the pill."

Feng Ting looked completely bewildered. "Master, I'm not injured, nor am I sick. Why would I need to take this pill?"

Xiao Fumeng looked at Feng Ting with a gentle yet tender expression, "Go quickly, you'll understand why once you've eaten it."

Yu Qinghou's four disciples are: Lu Jiong, who is honest and steady; Ouyang Shuo, who is wise and capable; and Lin Feng, who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Originally, Feng Ting was the most lively and the life of the party on Junshan Mountain. Unfortunately, he had been stuck at the threshold of the Innate Realm for several years. Although he never showed it on the surface, he had become increasingly taciturn in private, sometimes even less talkative than Lin Feng.

Seeing his master and mistress looking at him with encouragement and expectation, Xiao Ruoying revealed a mysterious smile. To be honest, Feng Ting felt a little guilty, as if everyone was plotting against him.

But he knew that his master and mistress would never harm him, so he followed Ouyang Shuo with a bewildered expression.

"Second Senior Brother, what do you think Master and Mistress mean by this?"

Throughout the journey, Feng Ting was filled with questions and couldn't help but chat with Ouyang Shuo about them.

"Why did Master and Mistress bring the Prince of Zhenxi along?"

Feng Ting was actually more shocked than confused. "The Prince of Zhenxi now controls both Sichuan and is the most powerful prince in the world. Could it be that Master and Mistress forcibly brought him back to help the Longevity Army?"

I've heard that the Zhenxi Army has 100,000 troops in Sichuan. If they hear that the Zhenxi King has been captured and march east, I'm afraid the Zhennan Army and the Changsheng Army will both be reduced to dust!

Ouyang Shuo shook his head, "The Prince of Zhenxi was clearly not kidnapped by Master."

Feng Ting looked at the pill in his hand. "And this pill, the Prince of Zhenxi gave it to me as soon as we met. Judging from my master and mistress's expressions, it must be a very powerful pill. He even told me to thank him, but I don't know what it's for?"

Ouyang Shuo thought about what Yu Qinghou had said about "adjusting one's state of mind" and had some guesses in his mind, but at the same time he was a little hesitant to believe it. He thought that his master was probably not very confident either, so he did not say it out loud, for fear that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

"It might be for treating emotional distress," Ouyang Shuo patted Feng Ting on the shoulder.

Feng Ting turned back to argue, "I'm not in the mood to be upset!"

"Yes, yes, you haven't." Ouyang Shuo nodded repeatedly. "Shen Zhijun, as the chief disciple of the Mushan Sect, is about the same age as you, but hasn't broken through to the Innate Realm for a long time either?"

Feng Tingdao said, "He broke through to the Innate Realm half a year ago."

Ouyang Shuo thought for a moment, "Then how about thanking Fuyun?"

Feng Ting said calmly, "Xie Fuyun has also broken through to the Innate Realm. All the new generation of chief disciples of the seven major sword sects have broken through to the Innate Realm."

Ouyang Shuo didn't know what to say either.

The two were not in a hurry to go to Baiyang Mansion, nor were they in a hurry to release the news. Instead, they went straight to the Jingshi.

Feng Ting looked at the pill in his hand. "Should I chew it up, take it with water, or swallow it whole?"

Ouyang Shuo had never taken any elixirs either. "The books usually say to swallow them raw, but that's probably because there's no water available."

So he poured Feng Ting a glass of water, and watched as Feng Ting sat cross-legged and circulated his internal energy for several cycles to adjust his state, before handing over the water.

He handed it to him along with the pills, and watched as Feng Ting swallowed it whole.

A moment later, Wang Yu, who had just finished tidying up the courtyard and was being shown around Junshan by Xiao Ruoying, heard a clear whistle coming from the back of the mountain. The whistle was filled with excitement.

"Brother Feng has also broken through to the Innate Realm." Xiao Ruoying's eyes shone brightly as she looked at Wang Yu. Seeing that no one was around, she took advantage of her excitement, grabbed Wang Yu's arm, and kissed him on the cheek.

Wang Yu raised an eyebrow, turned to the side, and pointed to the other cheek.

Xiao Ruoying blushed, but her heart was filled with excitement. She tiptoed and kissed Wang Yu on the other cheek.

Just then, the sound of clothes rustling in the wind echoed on the mountain path. Xiao Ruoying quickly let go and hid behind Wang Yu. She then saw Feng Ting rushing up to the two of them and kneeling down on the spot.

"Thank you, Prince of Zhenxi, for the elixir!" Feng Ting kowtowed three times.

Wang Yu reached out to support him, and even though Feng Ting had reached the Innate Realm, he was still lifted up by Wang Yu's force from a distance. He was startled and realized that Wang Yu's martial arts skills were also extraordinary.

"I gave you the pill not because of you, but because of Daojun," Wang Yu said. "The people you should thank the most are not me, but Senior Yu and Madam Yu, who treat you like their own child."

Xiao Ruoying stood behind Wang Yu, her eyes fixed on him with infatuation.
