242: Yang Qiong: It’s almost time to eat

The three dispersed. Lü Qingmei returned to Wuji Peak, while Gu Liangyuan led Yang Qiong to Forget-Love Hall.

“Speak. What is it that you had to tell me alone?”

Yang Qiong tried hard not to show any abnormality, and said casually:

“It’s nothing major. It’s just that Third Grandmother accidentally obtained a volume of precious art that no one in Yaochi has been able to thoroughly study. I heard that Junior Martial Uncle’s Comprehension Ability is Heaven-Defying, so she wants you to help take a look.”

“She mentioned this a long time ago, but I saw that Junior Martial Uncle was busy with the Cult Leader Immortal Assembly, so I didn’t dare to disturb him.”

Gu Liangyuan’s interest was immediately piqued upon hearing this.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately said:

“I’ll take a Disciple first, and then I’ll go with you.”

Yang Qiong nodded slightly, showing no hint of anything amiss on her face.

The heart that had been hanging in suspense finally settled.

Good, as long as Gu Liangyuan is willing to see Third Grandmother, then half the battle is won!

It’s just… will being this proactive make Gu Liangyuan feel uncomfortable?

Forget it, I don’t care.

For the sake of Yaochi, I must be proactive.

Right, everything I’m doing is not for myself, but for Yaochi!

Yang Qiong, sacrificing yourself for the Holy Land, you are a great person!

Selfless and devoted!

Gu Liangyuan ordered Song Rentou to bring Jiang Wubing, while Yang Qiong kept brainwashing herself on the side.

By the end, she even believed it herself.

Before long, Song Rentou arrived with Jiang Wubing.

At this moment, Jiang Wubing, after being nourished by the spiritual objects, still appeared weak, but his condition was much better than before.

Jiang Wubing entered Forget-Love Hall, saw Gu Liangyuan and Yang Qiong, and immediately bowed:

“Disciple Jiang Wubing greets Revered Master, and greets Revered Master’s Wife!”

Bang!

With that, a heavy kowtow landed on the ground.

When he looked up again, his forehead was already bruised.

Yang Qiong, who was in the midst of self-brainwashing, felt a surge of warmth when Jiang Wubing called her Revered Master’s Wife.

She subconsciously glanced at Gu Liangyuan, but saw that Gu Liangyuan’s expression was normal, as if he hadn’t heard Jiang Wubing’s words, and she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

In her opinion, Gu Liangyuan’s indifference was a sign of not caring.

Not only not caring about that remark, but also not caring about her.

Yang Qiong’s competitive spirit was also ignited at this moment.

You don’t care, do you!

After arriving at Yaochi, I’ll show you my three thousand methods, and see if you can still be as calm as you are now!

In reality, Yang Qiong was overthinking it. The reason Gu Liangyuan acted this way was because his attention wasn’t on it.

Gu Liangyuan looked at Jiang Wubing with interest:

“Are you so sure that I intend to take you as a Disciple?”

Jiang Wubing looked at Gu Liangyuan, neither humble nor arrogant:

“I wasn’t sure before, but I am now.”

“I provoked Revered Master, which should have been a capital offense, but Revered Master didn’t kill me; instead, he put me under house arrest.”

“Calling it house arrest, it was actually a disguised form of protection for me, and it also allowed my body to recuperate during this period.”

“I don’t believe there’s such a thing as good without reason in this world. Master treating me like this must have a purpose.”

“After much thought, I have nothing. All I have is this crippled body.”

“I heard that Master has a characteristic when taking Disciples, and that is a person of deep affection.”

“And I, Jiang Wubing, definitely fit this characteristic.”

“This idea is indeed very bold, and I myself can’t believe what about me, a cripple, Revered Master could possibly value.”

“With the mindset that it’s just death either way, I immediately bowed upon entering the hall.”

With that, Jiang Wubing bowed again to Gu Liangyuan.

He called him “Revered Master” and “Revered Master” with utmost naturalness.

Gu Liangyuan was satisfied after listening.

As expected of someone with the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart; even before activation, he possesses such insight.

Gu Liangyuan didn’t directly reply to Jiang Wubing, but instead said to Song Rentou:

“Pass down the order: from today onwards, Jiang Wubing shall be the ninth direct Disciple of my Forget-Love Peak!”

Song Rentou always obeyed Gu Liangyuan’s orders unconditionally. Although he was curious why Junior Martial Uncle took a cripple as a Disciple, he didn’t ask further, simply acknowledged, and then turned and left.

Although Jiang Wubing had anticipated it, it wasn’t until Gu Liangyuan spoke those words that he completely let go of his worries.

Overjoyed, he was about to kneel and prostrate himself before Gu Liangyuan again, but Gu Liangyuan raised his hand to stop him:

“That’s enough. You’ve just managed to recover your body a little; don’t cripple yourself again with kowtows.”

With that, he pointed a finger, and two streams of light entered Jiang Wubing’s glabella:

“A volume of Supreme Forgetfulness Scripture, the fundamental Legacy of my Forget-Love Peak. Cultivate it diligently, and it can slowly repair your Meridians, allowing you to return to a normal state.”

“However, the destruction of your Spiritual Root and the Waste of your Dantian are somewhat tricky. Your Master will need to put in more effort.”

“The other volume is the Supreme Heavenly Mystery Art. When you have nothing to do, you can study it.”

Listening to Gu Liangyuan’s words, Jiang Wubing’s eyes revealed surprise:

“Master can cure my crippled body?”

Listening closely, Jiang Wubing’s tone even carried a hint of fear.

Afraid of receiving Gu Liangyuan’s denial.

Gu Liangyuan nodded affirmatively: “I can cure it!”

At this moment, Gu Liangyuan had already thought of a solution.

Zhang Yang!

Recently, Zhang Yang has gotten a bit too fat. Being crippled might be the end of the world for others, but for a Child of Destiny, breaking and then establishing is basic operation.

Jiang Wubing received the affirmative reply, and tears welled up in his eyes.

A new lease on life, a new lease on life!

If someone else had said this, he might not have believed it, but before he came to Gu Liangyuan, he had thoroughly inquired about Gu Liangyuan’s information.

This person before him was a Supreme renowned Master who could even discover hidden Spiritual Roots!

Gu Liangyuan’s words were highly credible!

Jiang Wubing immediately said:

“Wubing has no special talents, only this one life!”

“From now on, Master is my reborn parent. From now on, Wubing will surely do his utmost to honor Master, through mountains of daggers and seas of fire, I will not shrink back. If I violate this oath, Heart Demon will entangle me, and I shall die instantly!”

“Ding, the host bestowed the Supreme Heavenly Mystery Art, triggering a five thousand times return. Return reward: Congenital Yi Number.”

Name: Congenital Yi Number

Rank: Great Divine Power

Cultivation Requirement: Karma Law

Effect: Qian is heaven, Kun is earth; heaven and earth are all within one trigram!

Congenital Yi Number, nothing cannot be divined, no event cannot be divined, all things in the world can be deduced.

Note: The more noble the opponent’s identity, the higher their cultivation, the more magical power will be consumed to deduce.

Returning a Great Divine Power, even if it was an auxiliary Divine Ability, Gu Liangyuan was still quite satisfied.

Divine Ability is something I might not use, but I can’t not have it.

The more, the merrier.

Gu Liangyuan waved his hand at Jiang Wubing: “Having this intention is good, but to help your Revered Master, your cultivation is far from enough.”

“Your diligent Cultivation is the best repayment to your Revered Master.”

“Alright, you may withdraw for now. Your Revered Master has something to do and will go to Yaochi. I will resolve the matter of your Spiritual Root later.”

Jiang Wubing acknowledged and withdrew.

In his heart, however, he was determined to grow stronger as quickly as possible.

He recalled the graceful figure who had died in his arms.

“Rouge, I have a backer now.”

“Wait for Young Revered Master. Young Revered Master will definitely avenge you and wash the Jiang Family in blood!”

After Jiang Wubing had gone far, Yang Qiong, who had witnessed everything, spoke to Gu Liangyuan:

“Junior Martial Uncle’s standards for accepting Disciples are truly unusual.”

Gu Liangyuan smiled but did not answer:

“Let’s go, let’s go to Yaochi together.”

“Junior Martial Uncle, please.”

“Please.”
