Chapter 142: This Absolutely Cannot Be Done… [Seventh Update!]
It was already early morning!
Chu Yang sat wearily on the ground, putting away the silver needles.
Just a while ago, Wanrenjie, Cheng Duying, and Bao Buhuan had successively taken the purple cloud pill, and all three had successfully advanced to supreme first rank!
Wanrenjie and Cheng Duying had fully recovered from their injuries and were full of vitality.
However, when Bao Buhuan took the purple cloud pill, there was almost a mishap.
His injuries were far too severe, and it was equivalent to directly using the powerful medicinal force to clear his meridians. Moreover, not only did it need to be cleared, but also reconnected!
Although Chu Yang had considered this aspect earlier, he had underestimated Wei Wuyan's Faceless Sword Qi, which made it incredibly difficult and required Wanrenjie and Cheng Duying to help simultaneously, narrowly getting through the ordeal.
Bao Buhuan had essentially wandered back and forth on the Yin Ming Crossing a hundred times, just a hair's breadth away… and it could have exploded into a pile of fertilizer with a bang…
Once he finally crossed over and completed the advancement, Chu Yang sat down on the ground, his hands and feet weak, his face pale, and his body soaked in cold sweat.
He was severely drained of stamina.
In order to help Bao Buhuan advance, Chu Yang had almost stepped into the gates of hell himself.
“Ah, my goodness…” Chu Yang groaned, “You three really live up to the names of Yin-Yang Bridge, Path of Life and Death, and Yin Ming Crossing… I was just frolicking on the Yin-Yang Bridge, lingering on the Path of Life and Death, and going back and forth on the Yin Ming Crossing. These nicknames… seem extremely justified.”
Wanrenjie laughed heartily: “But little brother, you have created a new Yin-Yang Bridge, a new Path of Life and Death, and a new Yin Ming Crossing! Under heaven, besides you, who else has such capabilities?”
Cheng Duying and Bao Buhuan nodded in agreement.
The three of them were immensely grateful to Chu Yang, to the point of being deeply moved!
In their first encounter, Chu Yang had saved Bao Buhuan's life; furthermore, with a warm heart, he had carried him in a cart to recuperate, and with his supreme medical skills, he alleviated the injuries of all three.
Moreover, after understanding their hardships, he made the most generous gesture in the world: gifting each of the three a purple cloud pill!
In one fell swoop, he helped three supreme masters!
This was tantamount to fulfilling three dreams!
And all this was a decision made after deep contemplation.
Because after the three of them broke through, they still had to continue opposing the nine great clans and the law enforcers!
What kind of risks did Chu Yang have to take for this help?!
This was truly unimaginable.
As a person from the Nine Heavens, how could Chu Yang not know the formidable nature of the nine great clans? Just a moment ago, he had mentioned that the three of them were weak and did not have high hopes for themselves.
But… for the sake of their prior friendship, he resolutely did it!
What kind of friend could one find like this?
The three of them were so moved that they didn’t know what to say. Wanting to say thank you? It seemed that no matter how they expressed gratitude, it couldn’t compare to the enormous favor they received!
Wanting to gift him something as a return? But what could compare to five hundred years of cultivation? Supreme first rank?
The three of them had received such a tremendous favor but found themselves truly… without a way to repay it!
“Little brother… little brother, I really don’t know what to say…” Wanrenjie sighed heavily, “Little brother, with such a warm heart, saved us between life and death, rescued us in times of peril; this great kindness… I truly…”
After a long pause, he still felt unable to articulate his feelings.
Chu Yang smiled and said, “Why does Wanlao ge need to say this? We are all children of the martial arts world, and we should be carefree… Such emotional expressions make me quite surprised.”
