Chapter 209

Seeing Ye Mu speak so bluntly, Yang Mi lowered her head and nodded.

Watching Yang Mi's reaction, the corners of Ye Mu's mouth curled up even further, almost reaching the back of her head.

When it came time for dinner, Ye Mu even arranged for Yang Mi and Ye Xuan to sit together.

Seeing Ye Xuan's first move with his chopsticks be to pick up food for her, Ye Mu hurriedly reminded him.

"Ye Xuan, hurry up and pick some food for Mimi; Mimi is a guest."

She had already paved so many paths for her son; now, this kid Ye Xuan needed to step up!

Hearing this, Yang Mi, sitting to the side, felt her earlobes grow hot.

At this moment, Ye Xuan didn't think too much about it; he nodded and picked up a soup bowl, serving Yang Mi a bowl of corn and pork rib soup.

"Careful, it's hot."

After all, it was rib soup just ladled out of a pressure cooker, and steam was rising from it; Ye Xuan gave a subconscious reminder.

As soon as these words were out, Yang Mi immediately blushed to her earlobes and gave a soft, affirmative hum.

In the eyes of Ye Mu, sitting opposite, she nodded with even greater satisfaction.

Not bad.

This kid Ye Xuan needs to keep it up.

She herself must continue to follow up, lest this kid drop the ball!

After dinner, having been pulled into chatting for a while longer by the incredibly enthusiastic Ye Mu, and seeing that it was getting late, Yang Mi finally rose to leave amidst Ye Mu's lingering reluctance.

Ye Xuan returned to his computer, where he began to update the subsequent content.

As the notification sound of the blog rang out, countless readers stopped what they were doing and all flooded into the blog.

Some were still on the subway; upon seeing the pop-up window for the novel update, they didn't even notice they needed to transfer, their entire minds focused on the novel.

Some were lying in bed, bored, refreshing the blog page hundreds or thousands of times; upon hearing the update notification, they thumped right out of bed.

Some were just about to eat, but how could hot food be more fragrant than reading a novel? Their hands were already a step faster, putting down their chopsticks and picking up their phones.

Everyone couldn't wait to click on the next chapter.

Are there any follow-ups for Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu?

Is the protagonist of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber Zhang Wuji?

Where will the follow-up of the Dragon Saber and the Heaven Sword go?

Carrying a head full of questions, the crowd of readers read on with full expectations.

They saw that Zhang Wuji, not even ten years old, witnessed his parents both pass away and fainted on the spot.

After confirmation by Zhang Sanfeng, it was discovered that Zhang Wuji had been poisoned by the Xuanming Divine Palm.

And to cure the Xuanming Divine Palm, unless Master Jueyuan were resurrected to obtain the complete Nine Yang Manual.

At present, Zhang Wuji was clearly beyond saving, and could only briefly expel the cold poison through internal energy to temporarily alleviate the symptoms.

Seeing this, countless readers couldn't help but start cursing again.

"So Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu really died..."

"Damn it! Zhang Wuji loses his parents one moment and has little time left the next—Ye Xuan, can you make the protagonist any more miserable?!"

"What exactly is this Xuanming Divine Palm?! It actually requires the Nine Yang Manual to cure?!"

Looking further down, the story continued to progress.

Zhang Sanfeng had only mastered three or four tenths of the Nine Yang Manual and planned to take Zhang Wuji to Shaolin Temple to learn the complete Nine Yang Manual.

Just when everyone thought there was finally a way for Zhang Wuji's Xuanming Divine Palm, they didn't expect that Master Kongwen of Shaolin Temple was one of the parties who forced Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu to their deaths.

Zhang Wuji was full of hatred and didn't want to continue dragging Zhang Sanfeng down, so he left a letter overnight and departed without saying goodbye.

Unexpectedly, he fell ill again halfway there and instead encountered a little girl named Zhou Zhiruo.

At this time, many readers' attention was attracted by the newly appeared little girl, Zhou Zhiruo.

"So, Ye Xuan has arranged a childhood sweetheart for Zhang Wuji?!"

"Childhood sweethearts, a pure love—how wonderful!"

"This dog author Ye Xuan always likes to dig all kinds of pits, and I just happen to love reading them! Damn it!"

"This Zhou Zhiruo is simply the white moonlight of youth!"

The crowd of readers had bright eyes, looking forward to the subsequent plot even more.

They saw the little girl Zhou Zhiruo and her father take Zhang Wuji to find Chang Yuchun of the Ming Sect to help treat his injuries.

Unexpectedly, they encountered foreign monks on the road; Zhou's father was killed, and Chang Yuchun was also outnumbered and struck by several palms.

Fortunately, Zhang Sanfeng descended from the sky to save them.

To thank Zhang Sanfeng for saving his life, Chang Yuchun planned to take Zhang Wuji to Butterfly Valley to find the divine doctor Hu Qingniu of the Ming Sect.

And Zhang Sanfeng also took Zhou Zhiruo to Mount Wudang, and the few parted ways immediately.

Seeing this scene, many readers started guessing again.

"Doesn't this Hu Qingniu claim to only save people from the Mo Sect? Could it be that Zhang Wuji joined the Mo Sect later?"

"This pair of childhood sweethearts just separated like this?! Isn't Zhang Wuji too miserable?"

"Every time I think the dog author is feeding me sugar, he gives me a mouthful of glass shards!"

"I've already been stunned by Ye Xuan's flashy operations; the heroine must be Zhou Zhiruo, right?!"

Under the speculation of the crowd, Chang Yuchun took Zhang Wuji to find Hu Qingniu.

Sure enough, upon learning that Zhang Wuji was the son of Zhang Cuishan of Wudang, this divine doctor of the Ming Sect, Hu Qingniu, refused on the spot.

Chang Yuchun was willing to trade his life for a life, begging the divine doctor to save Zhang Wuji, but Hu Qingniu remained indifferent.

However, just after Zhang Wuji fell ill again, Hu Qingniu discovered that Zhang Wuji had been struck by the Xuanming Divine Palm and could miraculously live until now, which instead sparked his curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

Hu Qingniu sealed Zhang Wuji's meridians and relieved Zhang Wuji's cold poison; seeing that Zhang Wuji had a good understanding of meridian theory, he instead gave Zhang Wuji the meridian acupuncture charts he had compiled, allowing Zhang Wuji to find a way to treat Chang Yuchun.

Seeing this, countless readers looked forward to good news even more.

All novel protagonists carry a protagonist halo.

Zhang Wuji of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber should be no exception, right?!

Is Zhang Wuji saved?!

"I think Hu Qingniu should be able to cure Zhang Wuji."

"They say he's a divine doctor; his temper is a bit strange, but that doesn't affect his great skills!"

"Poor little Zhang Wuji, his life is full of twists and turns!"

However, some readers felt that Zhang Wuji's Xuanming Divine Palm should still not be curable.

"It's already been said that it requires the Nine Yang Manual to be cured; how could a mere Hu Qingniu cure it?!"

"I can't wait for the Nine Yang Manual to appear now!"

"Once little Wuji gets the Nine Yang Manual, the next step is his great slaughter!"

Just as the emotions of all the readers rose and fell with the plot, the plot suddenly changed again.

Unexpectedly, people came to Butterfly Valley one after another.

There were Ji Xiaofu and Yang Buhui who were seeking treatment for injuries, and there was also Jin Huayan and her little apprentice Yin Li who came to kill Hu Qingniu.

After Hu Qingniu faked his death and left, Jin Fabiyan learned that Zhang Wuji was the son of Zhang Cuishan and bitterly forced him to reveal the whereabouts of Xie Xun.

Coincidentally, they ran into Abbess Miejue, who came to the rescue.

However, Abbess Miejue proposed that Ji Xiaofu lure and kill Yang Xiao in exchange for the position of head of the Emei Sect.

Being refused by Ji Xiaofu on the spot, Abbess Miejue killed Ji Xiaofu on the spot.

Witnessing this scene, Zhang Wuji took Yang Buhui and fled all the way to send Yang Buhui to Yang Xiao's side.

Afterwards, Zhang Wuji, fearing that his cold poison would implicate others, still embarked on his return journey alone.

Reading the story to this point, doubts began to appear in the minds of many readers.

Wait.

This Zhang Wuji hasn't even grown up yet; how come there are so many childhood sweethearts?

First there was Zhou Zhiruo who just popped up, then came Ji Xiaofu's daughter Yang Buhui, and as a result, there was also Jin Huayan's little apprentice Yin Li?!

Three female characters have appeared one after another!

Which one is the heroine?!
