Chapter 362

Yue Yun is a name. Master is a title. Qiao Chu is a name. Also possibly the phrase "Master said he didn't see."

Master again. Senior Uncle. Also Qiao Chu again.

"It's not because of you!" Yueyun said displeased.

Gu Rongjin is a name from the glossary. "Little person" maybe refers to a small person, not a name.

Yue Yun again. Gu Rongjin again.

Qiao Chu again.

Gu Rongjin easily dodged that palm strike, and with a backhand he also lifted him aside.

Yueyun exploded in anger: "You!"

Gu Rongjin again. Also possibly "taught by me", meaning someone taught by me, not a name.

"What did you say?!" Yueyun exclaimed, furious and flustered.

Gu Rongjin again. Also Grandmaster.

This time not only Yueyun, but even Qiao Chu was startled.

When they just saw Gu Rongjin make his move, they actually had doubts; the lineage of the martial arts they study can be said to be the same as his.

But… is Gu Rongjin really their grand-master? He must be laughing happily.

Gu Rongjin again. Also Juechen Valley.

Gu Rongjin's words were another blow to the head, leaving them dazed.

"Gu Rongjin! Stop spouting nonsense there!"

Qilin from the glossary.

Mu Yuanzhi is a name from the glossary. Also "Little Qilin" is a nickname for Qilin.

Gu Rongjin also temporarily stopped wasting words with the two juniors and went to check on Qilin.

"Senior sister..." Qilin, upon seeing Mu Yuanzhi, wanted to rush forward and give her a bear hug, but thinking of his current strange state, he suppressed the impulse, only gazing at his long-lost senior sister with tears welling up.

Mu Yuanzhi was different; as soon as she saw her junior brother after many years, seeing him looking sickly, she felt heartbroken and stepped forward a few paces to embrace him.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

Qilin's nose tingled, he was about to cry, but remembering his disciples were present, he forcibly held it back.

"Sorry, senior sister." He still couldn't help acting coquettish, looking pitiful and aggrieved, like a pitiful little cat.

Mu Yuanzhi patted his back to soothe him, just like when they were children.

Gu Rongjin, unusually free of jealousy, allowed the two senior siblings—who might not see each other again—to hug as long as they wanted.

Soon, Qilin felt he couldn't lose his dignity in front of his disciples, so he quickly pushed Mu Yuanzhi away gently, clearing his throat in a futile attempt to cover up his embarrassment.

Yueyun widened her eyes, as if she had never seen such a master before, and remained dazed for a long time.

Qiao Chu was surprised, but quickly accepted the fact.

So the master also has this side?

But he had long felt that the master wasn't as proper as he appeared; he just didn't dare to investigate further, feeling it would be overstepping.

Upon seeing today, he realized that such a master was the true master; usually he appears immobile in all directions, merely maintaining the valley lord's dignity.

"Little Chu, Little Yun, you go first." Qilin, remembering he needed to uphold the master's dignity, waved his hand.

No names.

Yueyun looked as if the sky had fallen.

No names.

Qiao Chu forcibly dragged Yueyun away, and Yueyun was pulled off like a soulless puppet.

Gu Rongjin again. Also Qilin again. Also Master as a title (meaning "my master").

Qilin again.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

She gazed lovingly at Qilin's silver hair and his pallid, bloodless face, and asked anxiously, "Is something wrong with your body?"

Qilin shook his head. "Just that my martial arts are temporarily unusable; everything else is normal."

Gu Rongjin: "Your newly improved prescription—bring it over so I can take a look."

Mu Yuanzhi: "Are you sure it's caused by the Hundred Spirit Pill?"

Qilin again. Also Yuan Yan from the glossary.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again. Also Hundred Spirit Grass Pill.

"We can't tell what the cause is." Qilin frowned. "This new formula can't be used either; others can only let the miasma erode them, which is no solution in the long run."

Although Gu Rongjin didn't understand, he took it to study and found he really didn't understand; he couldn't make sense of it at all.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again. Also Hundred Spirit Grass Pill again.

Qilin again. Also Mu Yuanzhi again.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

Qilin: "But you'll end up like me—frightening—and who knows what other side effects might arise over time?"

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also Qilin again.

Mu Yuanzhi again. Also brother-in-law.

Gu Rongjin again.

"Just watch, I told you it would be like this."

Xiao Zhiyan, how are you twisting my words?

Mu Yuanzhi teased, saying, "Because what you say with your mouth is opposite to what you think in your heart!"

Gu Rongjin: "Acting like this makes me seem strange! I really think this brat has not a single cute spot!"

All right, all right, I know.

……

Qilin: "No, I still can't give it to you, Senior Sister—you'll just have to do a remote diagnosis like this; I can't give it to you!"

No matter what he said, he wouldn't agree.

Gu Rongjin nodded, "Exactly, testing medicine on oneself is very dangerous—I won't allow it either!"

Mu Yuanzhi looked at the two of them, feeling warm inside, and could only give up.

"But you've thought for three years and still haven't figured out a solution." Mu Yuanzhi sighed at the prescription, "Where exactly did the problem arise?"

"By the way, Master Yuan Yan—is he in this Juechen Valley, or somewhere else?" Gu Rongjin asked.

Qilin: "He went to the Black Sea, saying he went to look for a solution."

"By the way, little Qilin, your disciple said someone from Shuangjiang came to see you—what's going on?" Gu Rongjin was very concerned about this matter.

Qilin shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't seen him."

"Why didn't you see him?"

"What why? I don't know him—he just came to Juechen Valley to find me, and I feel I shouldn't see him." Qilin also couldn't say why.

"What about Xiao Yichen? He was also exiled and passed through here at that time—don't you think it's quite a coincidence?" Gu Rongjin asked again.

"I've thought about it, but everything seems too far-fetched—could they possibly be colluding to control the miasma?"

"Who knows." Gu Rongjin hesitated to say, "How could there be so many coincidences in the world?"
