Transcending the Nine Heavens

Yan Rushan was in high spirits when he heard Chu Yang say, “Brother Yan, with these nine needles, I can guarantee that your life will be safe, and your cultivation level is also expected to recover. I will prepare some medicine for you later; you should find it helpful.”

“Thank you, thank you.” Yan Rushan sincerely expressed his gratitude.

He thought to himself that it didn’t matter if they didn’t know his name; the key was to be cured. If they only knew his name but couldn’t heal him, that would be even more tragic!

“Don’t be in such a hurry to thank me…” Chu Yang raised his hand to interrupt him, “I believe Brother Yan is certainly an extraordinary person. At the very least, the flexibility and width of your meridians, along with the powerful heart protection vital energy in your heart meridian, indicate your status. I have no intention of prying into your background or seeking anything in return; I only ask one thing.”

Yan Rushan replied seriously, “You say it, and I will do what I can.”

“It’s definitely something Brother Yan can do. I hope that after your body recovers a bit, you can leave here quietly, that’s all…” Chu Yang smiled gently, “Brother Yan is a wise man. My current capabilities are limited, and it’s really not suitable for me to get entangled in the disputes of someone as significant as Brother Yan. I hope for your understanding…”

Yan Rushan nodded in understanding.

His eyes revealed an undisguised admiration.

From this one statement, it was clear to see Chu Yang’s caution and foresight.

With Yan Rushan's level of cultivation and status in the martial arts world, how could he not have enemies? And how could those enemies, who qualified to stand against someone like Yan Rushan, be something Chu Yang could provoke? Even a slight brush against them could result in catastrophic consequences.

Of course, Yan Rushan was the first general of the Oath Management Bureau, descended from the sky due to a vow given by Chu Yang, a rather tragic figure.

Now, Chu Yang was unaware that this strange injury of Yan Rushan was caused by himself and Brother Tiger working together. And Yan Rushan certainly didn’t know that the culprit of his near-fatal injury was the divine doctor he was currently thanking profusely…

Yan Rushan knew his own circumstances.

Although he was enforcing the law of the Oath Management Bureau, he had no shortage of enemies. For now, the news of his injury hadn’t spread, ensuring temporary safety, but once it got out, it could lead to a significant uproar; perhaps this entire Purple Cloud City could be completely destroyed.

Let alone the Chu Yang who had treated him before.

“I agree to your request.” When Yan Rushan said these four words, he chose each one carefully, as if they were precious.

The first general of the Oath Management Bureau knew better than anyone the priceless nature of a promise!

These four words were a commitment to keep Chu Yang’s secret.

They also meant that even in front of the Eastern Emperor your majesty, he would not reveal Chu Yang’s secret. Though Chu Yang hadn’t asked for this, Yan Rushan believed that keeping a secret meant burying it forever in his own heart! No exceptions, regardless of who he faced!

Chu Yang examined Yan Rushan’s body and felt that his vital energy was still overly deficient.

This was actually intentional; it wasn’t that the ninefold pill or the Heavenly Saint Needle Technique were ineffective, for if they were, they wouldn’t have saved his life. Instead, it was a matter of insufficient treatment volume, which is a distinction between quality and quantity.

The ninefold pill and the Heavenly Saint Needle Technique were sufficiently high-level treatments, but the treatment volume was relatively insufficient. Yan Rushan’s impressive cultivation level meant that he could still hold on despite such severe injuries, yet his high cultivation also resulted in an astronomical demand for vital energy recovery, which meant that even with two great treasures, Chu Yang could only slightly restore him!
