A Thousand-Year Journey Through the God of War

At this moment, Wushuang was covered in black blood, and blood was seeping from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Ye'er with a smile on his face: "I will not let anyone else hurt the person I love."

After he finished speaking, he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. He was so sleepy, and his consciousness began to blur. He seemed to hear someone calling him, but the voice grew fainter and fainter and farther and farther away.

"Wushuang!" "Handsome brother Wushuang!" Ye'er and Na'er called out to Wushuang anxiously, but Wushuang remained silent in response.

Suddenly, a figure approached from afar and arrived in front of them in an instant. He had a Dragon Tiger Sword slung diagonally across his back.

The visitor was Shangguan Yunlong. He had returned from Tianzhu Mountain and originally intended to go to Xuchang City to find Cai Wenji to inquire about Ying Ge's whereabouts. However, he unexpectedly discovered Wushuang, Ye'er, and Na'er outside the city.

Fortunately, he brought back many precious medicines from Tianzhu Mountain, and he also learned some healing and detoxification techniques from his master, which temporarily brought Wushuang's injuries under control.

At Cai Wenji's residence in Xuchang, Cao Pi, having enjoyed Cai Wenji and Zhen Mi's duet of the zither and flute, led his elite cavalry away with satisfaction. As Zhen Mi departed, she looked at Cai Wenji with a smile and said, "Sister Wenji, remember my kindness today!"

"Sister Zhen Mi's kindness is immense; I will surely visit her in person to express my gratitude one day."

After seeing Cao Pi and Zhen Mi off, Cai Wenji hurriedly returned to her boudoir; this time had truly been too dangerous.

That night, Dou Shen, Murong Xue, and Chen Ping repeatedly thanked Cai Wenji for saving their lives, and then hurriedly left Xuchang City.

On the endless official road, two horses galloped at high speed. It was Dou Shen and Chen Ping. They were rushing to Xinye City to pick up Xiang'er to cure Wushuang's poison.

Behind them, in a carriage, Shangguan Yunlong drove slowly.

Inside the carriage, Wushuang lay unconscious on Ye'er's lap, while Ye'er gently stroked Wushuang's cheek, silently thinking: Wushuang, you absolutely cannot be hurt, otherwise I'm afraid I'll live with guilt for the rest of my life.

On the other side of the car sat Murong Xue and Na'er, both looking at Wushuang with worried expressions. Na'er's eyes were glistening with tears. When would our handsome brother Wushuang wake up?

Murong Xue was somewhat helpless in the face of the severe poison that Wushuang had been poisoned with. With the help of Shangguan Yunlong's good medicine from Tianzhu Mountain, she tried to detoxify Wushuang with her zither music, but the effect was minimal, only providing temporary relief. Now all hope rested on Xiang'er.

Inside Xinye City, since Zhuge Liang used his plan to burn Xiahou Dun's 100,000-strong army, Cao Cao had not sent any large troops for a while. This hard-won peace allowed Liu Bei's army to have a short period of rest and recuperation.

The entire city of Xinye was peaceful and harmonious, with merchants setting up stalls, farmers cultivating the land, soldiers patrolling, and the people living and working in peace and contentment.

The members of the War God Temple also enjoyed a short rest. Tiannu and Xiaolian's relationship had grown rapidly during this period, and the two of them were inseparable every day, having explored almost the entire city of Xinye.

Feng Xuexin locked herself in her room every day. Apart from occasionally going to see Xiang'er to check if she still had any lingering poison, she spent the rest of her time studying her exquisitely crafted masterpieces. During this time, she made quite a few small items.

Canglang went to Fancheng and told Wudi and the others everything that had happened in Xinye City in detail, so that they could prepare to go to the East China Sea to rescue Yingge.

Xiang'er has been busy all this time. She's either checking on the wounded soldiers in the army or treating ordinary people in the city.

That day, she had just finished treating the people when she saw Dou Shen and Chen Ping galloping towards her. The two of them had returned to Xinye City, changed into three good horses, and hurriedly came to find Xiang'er. Without time to explain, the three of them rode away from Xinye City and headed straight for the carriage carrying Wushuang. They finally met up with the carriage driven by Shangguan Yunlong just before sunset.

After Xiang'er treated Wushuang with silver needles for two full hours, Wushuang's life was finally saved, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Xiang'er let her hair down and wiped the sweat from her forehead and hair as she said, "It seems that Wushuang suffered a very serious internal injury a long time ago. When I treated him in Wancheng last time, I felt that his internal organs had shifted. This caused the poison from last time to still be largely unresolved. And this time he is poisoned again, which is very bad for his body."

Ye'er asked anxiously, "What should we do then? Last time, when Na'er and I accidentally entered Brother Ying's barrier, Brother Ying was in seclusion healing Wushuang. I think Wushuang's injuries came from that time."

"That's right. Brother Wushuang was injured by the Great Demon while saving everyone at the Runan Prefectural Governor's Mansion. Brother Ying, Brother Wudi, and I were entangled by other Demon Kings at the time. It was our first time encountering Illusion Demons and Necromancers. Thanks to Brother Ying, Brother Wudi and I were safe and sound. But by the time we arrived at the Runan Prefectural Governor's Mansion, Brother Wushuang was already seriously injured." Xiaoxue recalled the scene slowly.

"That makes sense. Wushuang's old wounds hadn't healed, and he fought a large group of demons outside Wancheng, which caused him to be injured again and poisoned. With my abilities, I can't heal Wushuang in a short time. In addition, he is now poisoned again. It seems that he needs to go back to Xinye to recuperate for a while."

"Pretty sister Xiang'er, can't we fight poison with poison?" Na'er tilted her head and thought for a moment before asking seriously.

"Na'er, not all poisons can be treated with poison. This won't work for Wushuang!" Xiang'er thought for a moment and then said, "However, although I can't make Wushuang fully recover, I can try my best to control his condition. At the very least, I need to wake him up first. But if Wushuang can't take care of himself, we'll have to arrange for someone to take good care of him."

"I can do this," Ye'er said without hesitation. "Wu Shuang saved my and Na'er's lives this time. He was injured like this all to protect us sisters, so leave the responsibility of taking care of Wu Shuang to me!"

"It's good, and we people of the martial arts world are supposed to be unconventional, but there are still differences between men and women."

Xiang'er admired Ye'er's idea, but still wanted to remind her.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid. He's a grown man, there's nothing to be ashamed of."

Ye'er blushed slightly and said weakly, "If he doesn't mind, I'll repay his life-saving grace by marrying him."

"Yay! Does that mean I'm going to have a brother-in-law?" Na'er cheered excitedly, which made Xiang'er and Xiaoxue burst into laughter, and Ye'er's face turned even redder.

Outside the carriage, Shangguan Yunlong tied the horse that Xiang'er had ridden to the carriage as well, so that the two horses pulled the carriage much faster. Dou Shen and Chen Ping rode their horses to protect the two sides of the carriage.

"Yunlong, so it seems Ying-ge's journey to the East Sea is safe," the God of War asked. "With Senior Zuo Ci accompanying Ying-ge, the demons of Futu Island shouldn't succeed, right?"

"Of course, Master gave the Nine-Turn Qiankun Pill to Brother Ying." Shangguan Yunlong said confidently, "Master said that when he rescued Miss Ziyan in the East Sea, the only one he couldn't defeat was that red-clothed woman who was the reincarnation of a demon star. This time when we go to the East Sea, with Brother Ying dealing with that demon star, Master can deal with the rest of the shrimp soldiers and crab generals."

"Um, what is the Nine-Turn Qiankun Pill?" Chen Ping asked, puzzled. "From what Yunlong said, it seems very powerful?"

"It's not just 'seems like,' it's incredibly powerful! Even Master himself couldn't bear to eat it," Shangguan Yunlong said excitedly. "It's said that this Nine-Turn Qiankun Pill can seal a person's injuries and allow them to use their strongest attack three times without being affected by their injuries. It's a pity Master only has one, otherwise I would definitely want to try it, hehe!"

"That's a real pity." Chen Ping also said with deep regret, "I was planning to get one too, but now I think I'll pass, since my strength is too weak anyway."

"Haha, you're quite good at comforting yourself," Shangguan Yunlong laughed heartily.

"What else can I do?" Chen Ping said with a wronged look, which made Dou Shen and Shangguan Yunlong burst into laughter.
