Chapter 14: Treating the cold poison, everyone is optimistic

~6 min read 1,186 words

The matter of Zhang Zhang Sanfeng’s hundredth birthday celebration had thus concluded; although it wasn't perfect due to Zhang Zhang Wuji’s situation, Song Song Yuanqiao was already very satisfied.

He said to Gu Gu Hanyuan with a face full of smiles:

"Gu Hanyuan, I didn't expect you to have broken through to the Innate realm so quietly. Your third uncle has been crippled for many years, and his care for you, his nephew, has been insufficient. In the future, if you have any questions about martial arts or life, you can ask us uncles at any time. As for today’s events, you handled them very well. Remember not to tarnish the prestige of our Wu Dangpai when you walk the Jianghu in the future."

"Gu Hanyuan being able to break through to the Innate realm is thanks to the Great Uncle breaking the rules to grant me access to the Library Pavilion. Otherwise, Gu Hanyuan would not have achieved this today."

Gu Gu Hanyuan naturally understood Song Song Yuanqiao’s meaning; he was worried about his lack of sense of belonging to the Wu Dangpai, which was why he had specifically instructed him.

In fact, Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care about this; after all, he had only transmigrated to this world a few days ago, and the original owner was just a taciturn, invisible person. Expecting a modern person to have a sense of belonging to a sect was just nonsense.

Of course, he was quite satisfied with his status as a Wu Dang disciple; the Wu Dangpai was very powerful in this world, and being able to borrow their influence was enough.

Song Song Yuanqiao nodded with satisfaction; he had always liked disciples who were humble and polite.

Moreover, Gu Gu Hanyuan’s talent was extremely high, and he was the future of the Wu Dangpai, so he liked him even more.

As for Song Song Qingshu losing his position as the first of the younger generation of Wu Dang disciples, he had never cared about that in his heart.

"Gu Hanyuan, why don't you come with me to see how Zhang Wuji is doing?"

"Very well, Great Uncle. Gu Hanyuan is also worried about Junior Brother Zhang Wuji’s condition."

This was, of course, nonsense. If there were no accidents, Zhang Zhang Wuji would certainly not die, and he would likely not escape the suffering of the cold poison. The main point was to go see Yin Yin Susu and strive to harvest some more villain points tonight. He was preparing to leave Mount Wudang in a while, and his martial arts were still lacking.

On the way to the backyard, he didn't expect the system to provide another rating. But this time it was a rating for the entire hundredth birthday celebration event. SS-rank rating, 5000 villain points.

Saving Zhang Zhang Cuishan appeared beneficial to Zhang Zhang Wuji on the surface, but although Zhang Zhang Cuishan was a man who valued relationships and righteousness, he was slightly pedantic. At the very least, he would absolutely not agree to Zhang Zhang Wuji becoming the leader of the Mingjiao.

Although Yin Yin Susu also survived, her relationship with Gu Gu Hanyuan was equivalent to planting a time bomb.

Gu Gu Hanyuan had farmed reputation, and the fake Dragon-Slaying Saber had deceived the world.

If one really calculated it, the only point deduction might be for maintaining the prestige of the Wu Dangpai.

Receiving the lowest level of SS-rank rating was reasonable.

Major events indeed yielded high rewards, and he had more expectations for the future siege of Bright Peak by the six major sects.

For example, if he were to destroy both the six major sects and the Mingjiao at Bright Peak, he wondered if he would get an SSS-rank rating?

The two soon arrived at the backyard.

The elders of the various temples and the Seven Heroes were all waiting outside a side room.

Everyone greeted Song Song Yuanqiao and Gu Gu Hanyuan when they saw them.

They were especially curious about Gu Gu Hanyuan, who had broken through to the Innate realm without a sound and had stunned everyone today.

Daoist Daoist Chongxu of the Zhenwu Temple, True Person Daoist Yucha of the White Cloud Temple, Daoist Daoist Tianxu of the Shangqing Temple, and Daoist Ma of the Yuxu Temple were all quite friendly toward Gu Gu Hanyuan, mostly encouraging him or hoping he could exchange martial arts with their younger disciples.

Although Wood Daoist appeared kind and cordial on the surface, Gu Gu Hanyuan could clearly feel the wariness in his eyes; he was likely worried that Gu Gu Hanyuan’s growth was too fast and would affect his future plans.

Most of the Wu Dang Seven Heroes had seen Gu Gu Hanyuan before, and although they hadn't discovered his extraordinariness at the time, they were all happy for him.

Especially the youngest, Mo Mo Shenggu, had the greatest favor for Gu Gu Hanyuan, patting his shoulder and praising him constantly.

After all, Mo Mo Shenggu had the most hot-blooded temperament, and he had been full of anger today after being pressured by the various sects.

Later, seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan angrily confront Kong Wen was as refreshing as drinking a bottle of ice on a hot day.

Although Zhang Zhang Cuishan was worried about Zhang Zhang Wuji, he also came up to offer a few perfunctory words of encouragement.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at Zhang Zhang Cuishan, feeling inevitably strange in his heart, but fortunately, he showed no trace of it on his face, remaining humble and polite.

Yin Yin Susu, standing to the side, felt indescribably awkward when she saw Zhang Zhang Cuishan and Gu Gu Hanyuan interacting.

Especially when Yin Yin Susu saw Gu Gu Hanyuan giving her a suggestive look past Zhang Zhang Cuishan, her heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't come up to talk to her, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, Yin Yin Susu reflected on Gu Gu Hanyuan’s suggestive look just now, pondering for a long time that he might want to talk to her in private.

In fact, she also had many things to ask Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Yin Yin Susu subconsciously felt that there might be a connection between Gu Gu Hanyuan and Brother Wutian; otherwise, why would he have come today so coincidentally, and brought news of Brother Xie Xun and the Dragon-Slaying Saber?

If there were no Brother Wutian, even if Gu Gu Hanyuan could confront them again today, it would at most have caused a clash between the Wu Dangpai and the various sects.

Even if they survived today, the subsequent trouble would be no less.

Instead, because of Brother Wutian, the trouble on Zhang Zhang Cuishan and Yin Yin Susu suddenly vanished.

If it weren't for Zhang Zhang Wuji’s situation at the end, Yin Yin Susu would have liked to find an opportunity to thank him.

After everyone waited outside the door for an hour, the door was finally opened.

After Zhang Zhang Sanfeng walked out, everyone surrounded him, asking about Zhang Zhang Wuji’s condition.
