I'm here in the martial arts world just to find love.

"This item has been refined by me once, and the divine imprint on it has been removed. If you need it, young master, you can use it directly."

Jiang Chao took the small flag from Jin Yu's hand, his mind filled with mixed emotions. The sorcerer who had been tormenting him for so long had been easily dealt with by this maidservant in front of him, who was neither human nor anything else.

The censor, who had set up his stance and was ready to act, ended up empty-handed.

...Zuo Xiaoqian didn't come away empty-handed.

With most of his life force drained and his fighting power completely gone, Nangong Hao was taken away by her.

In this way, the Censor-in-Chief can at least give an explanation to his superior.

Jiang Chao just felt that Zuo Xiaoqian's gaze towards him was a little strange when she left, as if it was somewhat...resentful?

"Young Master, your friend is alright. Although some of his life force was taken from him, he has a strong constitution and is skilled with guns, so he will recover quickly. As for your three confidantes..."

Jiang Chao's thoughts were interrupted by a pleasant voice. He turned his head and looked at the speaker.

The woman in green blushed slightly before continuing:

"Young Master's three confidantes are likely to require your personal attention and treatment; this servant has no other recourse."

"They have all been poisoned by that demon's aphrodisiac, and there is currently no antidote. I'm afraid the only option is..."

The woman in green blinked at Jiang Chao, then remained silent, giving him a knowing look.

Jiang Chao's expression immediately froze.

The sorcerer who attempted to possess him was killed by the two maids his mother had sent to serve him. Before his divine consciousness dissipated, he left behind a curse.

This curse was not directed at Jiang Chao himself, but at those around him.

He is now in the martial world, and the only people by his side are the female knight-errant Chu and her companions...

As for Lady Chu, it's fine. The two are of similar age and have feelings for each other. If it's to save her, Jiang Chao is willing to do it. Presumably, Lady Chu won't blame him afterward.

But Su E... and Qin Shaoling's sister, Qin Yueyao...

Jiang Chao took a deep breath. "Is there really no other way?"

Qingling shook her head. "That's all."

Jiang Chao, still unwilling to give up, looked at his smiling older sister Jin Yu, "Sister Jin Yu, is there nothing you can do either?"

Jin Yu laughed and said, "Young Master, Qingling and I are from the same clan. What she can do, I can do too. What she can't do, I naturally can't do either."

Jiang Chao sighed.

This is a difficult matter, and no matter what, he must not take advantage of someone's misfortune.

Suddenly, Jiang Chao remembered something.

"By the way, isn't my blood a bit special? Maybe we could give it a try!"

After saying that, without waiting for Jin Yu and Qing Ling to speak, Jiang Chao strode towards the next room.

The two sisters inside the room exchanged a glance, and both saw disappointment in each other's eyes.

"Tsk, the young master has grown up and is not so easily fooled anymore."

Qingling pouted.

Jin Yu glared at his sister and said:

"You brat, I told you long ago that the young master is no longer what he used to be and should not be underestimated, but you wouldn't believe me. Now look what's happened! If the young master holds a grudge against us sisters because of this, what will you do then!"

Qingling scoffed at this, "Wasn't I doing it for his own good? Didn't he say he was going down the mountain to find a hundred female confidantes? This is nothing!"

"With him always looking back and forth, always hesitant and timid, when will he ever achieve his goal? And if he doesn't achieve his goal, when will you and I be able to get out of this mess?"

"I don't want to stay in this place for another second; it's just too boring..."

After listening to her complaints, Jin Yu suddenly asked, "Do you understand matters between men and women?"

Qingling choked, then retorted, "Does that mean you, sister, understand?"

Jin Yu shook his head. "I don't understand, so I never interfere, lest I make a fool of myself."

Qingling was silent for a moment, then said, "I know, I won't do it again next time."

……

Jiang Chao tilted his head back and took a swig of wine, then looked at the woman on the couch.

The woman had her eyes closed and was sleeping peacefully.

He would occasionally furrow his brow slightly, as if he were having a nightmare.

Jiang Chao sighed, checked the woman's forehead temperature, and was relieved to see that she did not have a fever.

This matter originated with him.

Chu Ning and the others were implicated by him.

Although the problem was eventually solved and the charlatan who had targeted him was killed, the curse left behind by the evil sorcerer remained.

His blood works, but it only temporarily suppresses the strange poison and cannot completely cure it.

We can only wait for Su E to wake up and see if she has any solutions.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Shaoling had already recovered his vitality; the slight loss of life force had not caused him any serious harm.

For the past two days, he has been practicing shooting in the backyard of the inn without fail, spending most of the day doing so.

Of the Chu heroines and others, only Su E, a descendant of the witchcraft lineage, regained consciousness.

Chu Ning and Qin Yueyao are still in a coma.

Every day, they rely on the river to draw blood and apply it to the space between their eyebrows to suppress a certain kind of curse poison planted by a sorcerer in his final, desperate attempt to retaliate before his death.

"This poison has a very peculiar feel to it."

Su E tried her best to describe it: "It's like... eating several kinds of highly nutritious foods, and then drinking strong liquor. After getting drunk, you feel hot and feverish all over, but at the same time, you feel so cold that you're shivering..."

Jiang Chao looked at the woman struggling to control herself, remained silent for a moment, and then asked:

"Does Mr. Su have a way to detoxify?"

Su E shook her head, her eyes alluring, and said, "Don't call me Mr. Su. I'm not much older than you. Just call me Su Su, or Sister Su."

"..."

That sorcerer's curse was truly terrifying!

Even Su E, who was always highly skilled in medicine, was transformed into this state under the influence of the curse!

"Sister Su, do you have a way to detoxify?"

Jiang Chao asked patiently.

Su E nodded, then shook her head.

"Yes, there is, but the method of detoxification is quite troublesome and dangerous. If one is not careful, the poison will cause death."

At this point, the woman paused, then said:

"Moreover, I need your help with this."

Jiang Chao had a bad feeling, but for Chu Ning and the others, he still asked:

"What method?"

The woman stared intently at him: "Have you ever heard of... the Yin-Yang dual cultivation method?"

"Just like when you and that saintess Li Muqing were exchanging martial arts techniques, you improved each other, and this curse can be broken."

After hearing Su E's words, Jiang Chao fell into a long silence.

In the end, is there still no escaping it?

Jiang Chao closed his eyes in pain.

……

Seven days later.

early morning.

Jiang Chao suddenly woke up from his dream.

The boy, covered in cold sweat, glanced at the sky just beginning to lighten outside the window and hurriedly sat up from the bed.

After seven days of intensive training, today is the day to test the results.

If he still couldn't completely eradicate the curse, then he would have no choice but to end his journey through the martial world and return to the Wind and Snow Temple with the three women.

My trip to the capital must be postponed for a while.

Fortunately, things did not develop as badly as they might have hoped.

Upon arriving at the backyard, three women with distinct expressions and personalities had been waiting for some time.

Upon seeing him, the oldest of them, Su E, smiled gently.

The female knight-errant blushed and gave a shy, timid hum.

Qin Yueyao, the female teacher, nodded slightly to Jiang Chao, appearing quite like a lady from a prominent family.

However, Jiang Chao still noticed that the girl's ears were slightly red, indicating that her inner world was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
