CHAPTER 147: Pfft... Pfft...
Even if Mr. Du had imperial level cultivation, facing Tie Yun's national strength and the power of the Golden Horse Knights Hall, he would probably only meet a bitter end! Not to mention, he did not possess such a high cultivation level...
"Mr. Du leaving early is the only glimmer of hope!" Chu Yang said slowly.
"Even if I were to leave, this vast world... where could I possibly go?" Mr. Du muttered.
"Mr. Du seems to have forgotten that I, Chu, still owe you a favor," Chu Yang smiled and said, "In this world, there are not many elders whom I respect; and you, Mr. Du, are one of them!"
Mr. Du shook his head repeatedly and said, "No! You are in a great situation with Tie Yun, with boundless prospects! Moreover, my life's work is in your hands. Even if I were to die, I cannot let it burden you!"
Mr. Du's words were resolute. He had high hopes for Chu Yang! In this healer's heart, Chu Yang absolutely could not afford to have any mishaps!
"It won't burden me." Chu Yang felt a surge of heat in his heart and said lightly, "Moreover, in this entire world, I am the only one who can help you at that time, Mr. Du!"
"A healer like Mr. Du, with such a disposition, should not die!" Chu Yang said solemnly, "Mr. Du, it is settled this way. However, I still haven't clarified the identity of the others—whether they are from Diwu Qingrou... If the situation remains unclear at that time, I can only take Mr. Du with me!"
The “others” he referred to, were naturally Mr. Du's personal attendant, Gao Weicheng from the blazing fire blade sect.
Only for this person, Chu Yang had no impression and did not know whether he was truly Mr. Du's close confidant or a spy for Diwu Qingrou.
Chu Yang constantly felt that Gao Weicheng's influence was somewhat strange!
Mr. Du sighed heavily, wanting to say something, but he ultimately held back. After a long time, he murmured, "In a person's life, one really cannot make mistakes... Once a wrong step is taken, one will eventually have to pay the debt..."
He suddenly smiled and said, "I did not save your father, did I?" After a pause, he added, "You owe me nothing."
Chu Yang smiled meaningfully and said, "But I owe Mr. Du a conscience!"
The words "conscience" left Mr. Du silent for a long time, and he sighed softly, "Conscience... conscience..." He no longer spoke.
Mr. Du stayed there for a while before returning to the palace; because he could not be away from Tie Shicheng for too long.
After Mr. Du left, Chu Yang immediately sat up.
"Sword Soul, are you there?"
"I am here."
"Give me a part of the medicine from that day! I need to heal!" Chu Yang urgently thought. Normally, given his current injuries, he would need at least half a month of rest to gradually recover. But now, at such a critical moment, how could he afford to rest for half a month?
He certainly hadn’t forgotten that there was still a huge medicinal power within his meridians; treating such internal injuries would be effortless. Because the medicinal power was in his meridians, as long as it took effect, it was practically equivalent to natural recovery.
"If enough medicinal power is released to treat your injuries, then while you heal, your cultivation level will also increase by one stage; and you have just stepped into being a martial artist, with an unstable mindset and shallow comprehension, it might do more harm than good," the sword soul hesitated.
"First rank martial artist, do not forget, my breakthrough to first rank martial artist was under the pressure of a king level expert!" Chu Yang said, "Moreover, I just fought a battle with a king level expert; how could my realm be unstable?"
Chu Yang rebutted, "I fear I have already surpassed that!"
The sword soul fell silent for a moment, seeming to be assessing his mental state; after a long while, Chu Yang felt a surge of pure medicinal power spreading in his meridians, and a sensation of extreme comfort arose...
At the same time, a wave of heat rose in his dantian; and unexpectedly, a chill also rose from the Nine Calamity Sword, merging with the heat in the dantian.
