A player on Mount Hua starts by obtaining the Prism color entry.

They nodded to each other in greeting, and Lu Ming introduced Yue Lingshan as his fiancée, the daughter of the Huashan Sect leader.

Lu Xiaofeng looked the two of them over with considerable surprise, not sensing that Yue Lingshan was angry at all. Suddenly intrigued, he asked, "How did you do that?"

The others were completely confused, but only Lu Ming and Hua Manlou understood. Men understand, right?

"My senior sister is beautiful, intelligent, virtuous, and kind. She already knows and understands about my relationship with Shiyin. If you want to find another woman, that's between you and Miss Xue."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Xue Bing glared at Lu Xiaofeng, put her hands on her hips, and said, "You, Lu Xiaofeng, you want to find other vixens, don't you!"

Lu Xiaofeng's expression faltered slightly. He wanted to as well, but everyone knew Xue Bing was one of the four notorious tigresses. She was beautiful and of noble birth, and aside from her jealousy and bad temper, she had indeed treated him quite well.

He immediately chuckled and said, "No, I just admire Brother Lu. He's truly worthy of the Lu family. But speaking of which, can you cure him?"

Hua Manlou was indeed well-mannered. From beginning to end, apart from nodding and greeting, he listened quietly. If he weren't blind, he would definitely be a refined gentleman.

He was highly skilled in martial arts and came from an extremely wealthy family, making him the dream husband for countless women.

Lu Ming picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and carefully sized up Hua Manlou: "Since you're Lu Xiaoji's friend, then you're my friend, Lu Ming's friend. How about I call you Brother Hua?"

Hua Manlou closed his folding fan, his eyes unfocused, and listened intently. He clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Brother Lu, you flatter me. My eye condition is something I've had since childhood. If it doesn't work out, it's alright. I'm used to it."

Yue Lingshan went to prepare the meal, and Xue Bing, although the young lady of Shenzhen Manor, also went to help, leaving the three of them some space to talk. She was quite perceptive.

Lu Ming examined Hua Manlou and touched his forehead: "Relax, don't resist, let me check the situation first."

Blindness is the hardest thing to cure; there is no other way but to get an eye transplant.

Lu Xiaofeng appeared relaxed while drinking, but inwardly he was very anxious. He didn't know if he could cure the illness. Finding a truly skilled healer was difficult; even Ping Yizhi, known for his ability to kill after healing, had tried, but to no avail.

The Hua family was incredibly wealthy, and they even partnered with the Great Wei Dynasty to establish the Datong Money Exchange. With the backing of imperial power, it's no exaggeration to say they were incredibly wealthy; in fact, that's an understatement.

Even with the Hua family's wealth and connections, they couldn't find anyone to help Hua Manlou with his illness, which shows how difficult it was.

Lu Ming wasn't particularly moved by Hua Manlou, the blind swordsman, but he could definitely befriend him, though not as much as Li Xunhuan. After all, his brother Li genuinely gave him women and houses, treating him with his whole heart. Anyone who dared say Li Xunhuan wasn't a true brother would be the first to argue with him.

Hua Manlou's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly: "How is Brother Lu?"

"It's treatable!"

The two simple words made Hua Manlou tremble. Even with his mind tempered by more than twenty years of experience, he was somewhat shaken at this moment.

He quickly cupped his hands and said, "I am deeply grateful. Please do not hesitate to ask if you need my help in the future!"

Lu Xiaofeng was also happy for his friend. If he could become a normal person, who would want to be blind?

Lu Ming sat back down in the main seat, waved his hand, picked up a wine glass and handed it over: "I don't do that here. The consultation fee is 50,000 taels of silver. If you have any precious medicinal herbs, you can use them to offset the price. Also, you need to prepare the medicinal herbs required for the treatment yourself. Then we'll settle the matter evenly."

It sounds like a lot, but for the Hua family, it's not even a drop in the ocean.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou were both shrewd people; they knew that the other was trying to prevent them from owing favors. This is what true friendship is: a gentleman's friendship is as light as water; money is easy to repay, but favors are hard to repay.

Even Lu Xiaofeng, who was always jovial, couldn't help but nod and say, "I didn't expect you to be such a good friend. Hey, I knew I felt an instant connection with you when I met you at the inn that day. You're a true brother!"

Lu Ming poured him a glass with a hint of disdain: "No way, we're friends, Li Xunhuan is my brother. He's my cousin and from the Li family, if anyone says he's not my brother, I'll fight them!"

The two were taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter, filling the Zhengqi Hall with joyful sounds.

There are many people who can make fun of themselves, but to openly talk about things that are taboo or embarrassing is either foolish or completely honest.

Clearly, in their eyes, Lu Ming belonged to the latter category.

"That Long Xiaoyun was a real bastard. You don't know, before the martial arts contest to choose a husband, he used the life-saving grace to blackmail Li Xunhuan into asking his sister-in-law for his hand in marriage. That guy looked like a thief with shifty eyes, he was obviously not a good person."

"If it weren't for the attack by the Plum Blossom Bandits, and the fact that the Lin family has a rule that they must protect the safety of women, things might have been very different."

Lu Xiaofeng bluntly revealed the truth, since everyone would know about it eventually anyway, so he wasn't afraid to say it, subtly hinting that Long Xiaoyun wasn't a good person.

Hua Manlou was speechless. Talking behind someone's back wasn't Four-Eyebrows' style: "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for Lu Xiaofeng to say that? Isn't it a little too hurtful to Long Xiaoyun?"

You know what I'm going to say:

Lu Ming picked up his pen and wrote a prescription in a flowing style, then handed it over: "Prepare the medicinal herbs according to the prescription. If you don't have much time, stay and have New Year's Eve dinner with us."

Hua Manlou solemnly accepted the prescription and handed it to Lu Xiaofeng. After hearing the list of medicinal herbs, he smiled and said, "Although it's a bit troublesome, we can gather them within half a month. I'll have to keep you busy during this time."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded in agreement, but before he could speak, he saw Lu Ming's wicked smile, and his heart skipped a beat. That smile was rather evil; could it be that he had homosexual tendencies?

I moved away subtly, afraid of being noticed.

Lu Ming chuckled and said, "It's alright. We can have a friendly spar. I've admired you both for a long time. Let's make friends through martial arts."

A friendly exchange?

No, give me a keyword search result!

My junior brothers can't come up with any good keywords anymore, so I can only try to get something from these famous martial arts heroes.

Hua Manlou hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation until he was dragged into sparring every day, couldn't win, and was even beaten up. Only then did he realize how treacherous people can be.

The local sects are incredibly rude!

That evening, Yue Buqun also came out of seclusion and hosted a banquet for the three of them. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face, which greatly enhanced the reputation of his Huashan Sect.

One is a disciple of the Divine Needle Manor, another is the renowned swordsman Lu Xiaofeng, and the third is the famous Seventh Young Master of the Hua Family. All of them are prominent figures in the martial arts world. Forming a good relationship with them would be extremely beneficial for the restoration of the Huashan Sect in the future.

After finishing their meal, Lu Ming couldn't wait to drag Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou to spar.

Yue Lingshan also followed along with great interest, eager to see just how skilled her beloved junior brother was in martial arts.

Just as Xue Bing and I walked out, we saw Lu Xiaofeng fly back, and we could hear his grief and indignation.

"Didn't I say we wouldn't use internal energy? This is just a friendly spar!"

Lu Ming was also somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected Lu Xiaofeng to be so weak without using internal energy. He withdrew his fist without changing his expression: "Sorry, I am born with superhuman strength."
