Chapter 828

Zhou Zhiruo's eyes widened, "Young Master Zhang, you have actually learned all the mental cultivation methods of the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms?! How is this possible?"

She knew that the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms was the supreme treasure of the Shaolin Sect. In the entire Shaolin Sect, except for the previous abbot, only the current abbot's lineage knew it. This Zhang Wuji was young, yet he had actually managed to find this secret manual of the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms.

Zhang Wuji nodded and admitted, "Mm, not long ago I met the abbot of the Shaolin Temple and learned that he had gifted the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms to me, so I was able to practice it."

"So that's how it is. It seems you have quite a connection with the Shaolin Temple. How about this, after I heal your injuries, I will go to the Shaolin Mountain with you to take back this peerless Wu Gong!" Zhou Zhiruo said with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhang Wuji's face changed abruptly, and he said with a bitter smile, "Miss Zhou, you have misunderstood. That is not what I meant."

"Oh?" A flash of surprise appeared on Zhou Zhiruo's face, "Young Master Zhang wants to borrow our Emei medicine garden to heal your injuries? This..."

She had never expected Zhang Wuji to make such a request, and she was somewhat hesitant for a moment...

"What? Is there a difficulty?" Zhang Wuji asked suspiciously.

"No!" Zhou Zhiruo shook her head and said, "It's just..."

"Just what?"

Zhou Zhiruo hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and said, "It's just that we have rules in the Emei Sect. Anyone who enters the territory of the Emei Sect is not allowed to pick spiritual herbs or fairy flowers privately, otherwise, they will be severely punished!"

"Ah, there is such a rule?" Zhang Wuji was somewhat confused.

Zhou Zhiruo explained, "Yes, our Emei Sect is a Wu Lin sect, not like the imperial court or government offices. We emphasize wealth, companions, law, and land. The word 'wealth' is ranked first, followed by power, companions, and law."

"However, since you want to come in, these rules can naturally be broken!"

"Really!" Zhang Wuji said with wild joy, "Then thank you very much, Miss Zhou!"

Zhou Zhiruo smiled beautifully and said, "Why be so polite, Young Master Zhang? We are just passing acquaintances. My saving you is not just a small effort, but also just by the way. You must not take it to heart."

"By the way, Young Master Zhang, you should come with me tomorrow. Your constitution is weak, and you must recover your vitality as soon as possible."
