Chapter 100 Gao Heyun's Letter (4k)

Feng Changjin stood aside, watching this scene in silence.

The eight mechanical arms behind him were hanging limply, as if they could feel their master's weight.

Looking at Cheng Laiyun's darkened face, he suddenly remembered the first time he met this young man.

At that time, he was covered in bandages and was still bickering with Xu Jiayin, laughing without a care in the world.

At that time, he thought the kid was glib and unreliable.

But now————

He sighed softly.

No one speaks.

Only the river wind howled, as if bidding someone a farewell.

Just then.

Zhou Linghe suddenly spoke.

His voice was soft, but every word was clear: "I, Zhou Linghe, will remember what happened today."

"7

He looked at Cheng Laiyun's dark face and said, word by word:

"From now on, if the Cheng brothers' family ever needs anything, Zhou will go through fire and water without hesitation."

His words.

This is tantamount to sentencing Cheng Laiyun to death.

No one refuted him.

Everyone knows that the poison in Nirvana is something that this eighth-rank Mo Xiu could not withstand.

"Supervisor Gao, we of the Wuji Sect will remember your kindness in saving us today."

Zhou Linghe took a deep breath and bowed to Gao Heyun.

Then, he silently looked up at Cheng Laiyun in Gao Heyun's arms.

Without saying another word, he bowed respectfully.

"Brother Cheng, you deserve my bow."

Everyone watched him silently.

No one thought there was anything wrong with this gesture.

"Go to the Medical Sect!! The people there must have a solution!!"

Xu Jiayin seemed to suddenly remember something, and her whole body went into a frenzy. Her body trembled unconsciously as she looked up at Xu Miaozhen: "Master!! Quick! Go to the Medical Sect!!"

I heard her voice.

Gao Heyun pursed her lips even tighter, but as if grasping at a straw, she frantically circulated her spiritual energy, carrying Cheng Laiyun, and headed towards Qingzhou County.

"There's a flying torch!! There's a flying torch! Sister Gao!!"

Xu Jiayin carried the torch, which held Gao Heyun aloft, and they hurriedly took off.

The remaining three exchanged glances and followed Xu Jiayin into the city.

Medical School Branch.

Tonight is destined to be sleepless.

Gao Heyun carried Cheng Laiyun and hurried along, followed by Xu Miaozhen, Xu Jiayin, Feng Changjin, and Zhou Linghe.

-

The group rushed into the gate of the Medical Sect like a whirlwind, startling the disciples on night watch so much that they almost tumbled down the steps.

"Where is Elder Luo?!"

Gao Heyun's usual coldness was gone, and her voice was filled with anxiety.

The disciple jumped in surprise and scrambled inside, yelling, "It's—it's in the backyard!"

Gao Heyun didn't wait for him to lead the way and rushed straight to the backyard.

In the backyard, Luo Xun was reviewing medical records under the lamp.

He heard the noise and looked up. Before he could react, he saw a figure in black robes rush into the courtyard.

He was holding a young man whose body was covered in black and whose breath was weak.

"Elder Luo!" Gao Heyun cried urgently, "Save him!"

Luo Xun's pupils contracted sharply. He strode forward, his gaze falling on Cheng Laiyun's dark face. He then checked Cheng's pulse, and his expression instantly turned serious.

He suddenly looked up at the group that followed him in, his gaze lingering on Xu Miaozhen's face for a moment before turning to Zhou Linghe: "What's going on??"

Zhou Linghe took a deep breath, clasped his hands and said, "Elder Luo, I am Zhou Linghe, the newly appointed Chief Military Advisor of Qingzhou."

"This young man's name is Cheng Laiyun, and he is a disciple of the Mo Sect."

He paused, his voice deepening: "Just now on the Qujiang River, the Black Viper attempted to use Zhang Hong as a sacrifice to achieve Nirvana and advance to the fourth rank."

"If it succeeds, hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Qingzhou City will die from snake venom."

He looked at Cheng Laiyun with an extremely complex expression.

"This Brother Cheng, without hesitation, charged into the poisonous cloud alone, killed Zhang Hong, and broke the Black Serpent's Nirvana Formation."

After he finished speaking, the courtyard fell silent.

Luo Xun's hand froze in mid-air.

Behind him, the disciples of the Medical Sect looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Braving the poisonous clouds alone?

Kill Zhang Hong?

Has the Black Serpent's Nirvana been broken?

That was the poisonous cloud of a fifth-grade demon, the nirvana of a fifth-grade demon!

A young man —

A disciple of the Mohist school —

One—an eighth-rank official?

"Eighth rank?!" Luo Xun exclaimed, his gaze falling on Cheng Laiyun again, this time with a completely different expression.

Just then, a figure rushed out from the crowd and stumbled to Cheng Laiyun's side.

"Junior Brother Cheng!!!"

It's Ling Ziyun.

He had just been woken up and ran over in his outer robe. Before he could even see what was going on, he heard Zhou Linghe's words.

At this moment, he knelt beside Cheng Laiyun, staring wide-eyed at the blackened face.

"Junior Brother Cheng————"

He reached out to check Cheng Laiyun's pulse, but his hand trembled violently.

He gritted his teeth, forced himself to calm down, and reached for Cheng Laiyun's wrist.

Three breaths later, he raised his head, his eyes already red.

"Uncle Luo————"

His voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.

"He—his body is full of poison—the venom of a black viper—"

"But he still has a breath left—he's still alive—"

"Uncle-Master, please save him!!"

He practically shouted it out by the end.

The disciples of the Medical Sect stood there, watching this scene, their throats tightening.

They knew Ling Ziyun.

This usually jovial and talkative disciple of the medical sect had never been seen to care about anyone so much.

But at this moment, he knelt there, crying and begging his martial uncle for the sake of a disciple of the Mo Sect.

Luo Xun took a deep breath and was about to speak when suddenly, a figure of celestial blue walked up to him.

Xu Miaozhen.

She bowed slightly, clasped her hands together, and gave Luo Xun a deep bow.

Luo Xun's pupils contracted sharply, and he subconsciously took a half step back.

"Elder Xu! This—"

Fourth grade ink repair.

Elder of the Mo Sect.

His status was far more prestigious than that of a mere fifth-rank elder of the Medical Sect.

She actually bowed to me?

Xu Miaozhen straightened up and looked at Luo Xun, her eyes, as clear as autumn water, filled with an unprecedented seriousness.

"Elder Luo," her voice was soft, yet each word was clear, "Cheng Laiyun is a disciple of my Mo Sect, and also my most prized student in my life, Xu Miaozhen."

"Today, for the sake of the people of this city, he disregarded his own life and ventured into the poisonous clouds."

"Our lives are hanging by a thread, we earnestly request Elder Luo's help..."

She paused.

"Do everything you can to save them."

The courtyard was deathly silent.

Everyone was watching this scene.

Gao Heyun tightened her grip on Cheng Laiyun's hand slightly.

Xu Jiayin covered her mouth, tears streaming silently down her face.

Zhou Linghe stood to the side, his gaze deep.

Feng Changjin stood silently with his eight mechanical arms hanging limply, not uttering a word.

Those disciples of the Medical Sect had their mouths agape, wide enough to fit an egg.

A dignified fourth-rank Mo Xiu, a figure respected even by the Ministry of Works, actually bowed to an elder of the Medical Sect for the sake of an eighth-rank disciple—

Who exactly is Cheng Lai?

Luo Xun was stunned for three breaths.

Then, he took a deep breath and solemnly returned Xu Miaozhen's bow.

"Elder Xu, rest assured."

He turned and strode to Cheng Laiyun's side, saying in a deep voice, "Carry him inside! Everyone, prepare spiritual medicine, spiritual needles, and antidotes!"

"Tonight, I will personally take action!"

Ling Ziyun scrambled to her feet and ran inside, shouting, "I'll go get ready!"

Those disciples of the Medical Sect also sprang into action.

The courtyard was brightly lit.

Three people stood silently in the courtyard.

Xu Jiayin sat on the steps, curled up, hugging her knees with her arms, burying her face in them, and remained motionless.

Gao Heyun stood expressionless under the tree, gazing up at the bright moon in the sky.

Xu Miaozhen sat on the stone bench, her gaze fixed on the window of the house where Luo Xun had saved people, and sighed softly.

-

No one speaks.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for news.

"Squeak~"

The door opened.

Luo Xun walked out of the house looking exhausted.

After seeing Luo Xun.

Xu Jiayin's body trembled violently, and she looked up at Luo Xun: "Elder Luo, how is it?!"

Luo Xun's face was somewhat somber. He glanced back and saw that the door was half-open.

Cheng Laiyun's body was covered in black, and wisps of black smoke rose from his body.

"We've tried everything."

"At present, we can only stabilize him and prevent the toxins from continuing to damage his internal organs."

"As for whether he will wake up—I don't know."

After Luo Xun finished speaking, he looked at Xu Miaozhen with a guilty expression: "Elder Xu, I have done my best."

Upon hearing this, Xu Miaozhen's hand tightened beneath her sleeve, and she stared at Luo Xun, asking, "Isn't there any other way?"

Luo Xun opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yes, there is—but—"

"What solution?!" Xu Jiayin seemed to have heard heavenly music. She took a step forward, looked at Luo Xun, and clenched her hands tightly together.

"Nine-Turn Jade Toad Pill." Luo Xun pursed his lips, his tone somewhat absurd, and said, "You've all probably heard of this pill."

"There are only three Medical Master's Stones left, and they will absolutely not be given away easily."

"But—as far as I know, the imperial court seems to have a few more."

At this point, it even feels utterly absurd.

Would the imperial court easily give away such elixirs?

These words were spoken.

Xu Jiayin, Xu Miaozhen, and Gao Heyun looked up almost simultaneously.

Nine-Turn Jade Toad Elixir.

How could they not have heard of it?

Legend has it that this elixir, once ingested, can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded!

Even if it's not used to save lives, any cultivator below the seventh rank can ascend a major realm within three days after taking this pill!

And it has absolutely no side effects!

It was a masterpiece of medicine, a second-rank grand pharmacist, who, with the help of Lu Zhengfeng, searched for all the rare materials in the world and used his life's cultivation, finally managed to refine a batch.

Whether it's the medical school or the imperial court.

I would never use this pill on a mere eighth-rank Mo cultivator!

"Master!" Xu Jiayin looked at Xu Miaozhen almost subconsciously.

Under the moonlight, her delicate face was clearly visible, with tear tracks.

Xu Miaozhen glanced at her, then looked at Cheng Laiyun's body, which was surrounded by black mist, in the room.

He took a deep breath, his gaze hardening: "I understand."

With that, she left the courtyard.

Gao Heyun's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

She didn't say much either, glanced into the house one last time, and then turned and left.

Tiangong Institute.

Xu Miaozhen's gaze was solemn.

Before her lay a sheet of paper radiating a spiritual light, and in her hand she held a pen.

With each stroke of the pen, the characters flowed smoothly.

Although neat, it conveys an indescribable sense of urgency.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

[This is a letter from Zhang Xiangqin.]

Miao Zhen hurriedly promised a Nine-Turn Jade Toad Pill.

This elixir was requested by my disciple.

She wrote very carefully, and every word came from the bottom of her heart.

Finally, she pursed her lips and continued writing: "What Zhang Xiang taught me in the past, Miaozhen will remember forever."

"Without Zhang Xiang, there would be no Miao Zhen today."

"I humbly request that Prime Minister Zhang generously bestow upon me the elixir."

After finishing writing, I put down my pen.

Xu Miaozhen gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, then circulated her spiritual power, watching the spiritual paper in front of her, covered with writing, gradually dissipate into the room.

-

-

Gao Heyun's residence.

Her hand slowly stopped.

His gaze was fixed on the paper in front of him, which radiated a spiritual aura.

The Imperial Regent's Secret Letter concerns the case of Zhang Hong, the Prefect of Qingzhou, who colluded with demons and plotted to murder an official of the court, as well as a detailed account of the Qujiang Campaign.

Level: Urgent. Mi Yun arrived in Qingzhou on the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, originally to investigate the case of the theft of the Mo Clan's Xuanzhu.

Zhang Hong embezzled public funds and then used the Xuanzhu (mysterious pearl) as bait to lure a fifth-rank black viper into Qingzhou—intending to use the viper's power to intercept and kill the newly appointed Chief Advisor Zhou Linghe on the Qujiang River—in order to secure his exclusive control over the military and political power of Qingzhou.

All the important cases here were known to Cheng Laiyun, an eighth-rank disciple of the Mo Clan. Without him, I would have been helpless if I had encountered this case.

Knowing he was doomed, Zhang Hong sacrificed himself to help the Black Viper achieve rebirth and advance to the fourth rank.

Dark clouds obscured the sun, and poisonous rain poured down, leaving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Qingzhou City hanging by a thread.

This poisonous cloud is so potent that even a fifth-grade cultivator would die if they entered it, and even a fourth-grade cultivator would find it difficult to escape unscathed.

Then luck comes.

Without hesitation, he charged alone into the poisonous clouds.

Yun witnessed this child defying the heavens, facing the overwhelming poisonous fog.

He was as insignificant as an ant, yet as resolute as if facing death.

When he fell from the poisonous cloud, he was bleeding from all seven orifices and barely breathing.

When Yun caught him, she asked, "Was it worth it?"

He was lying in my arms, nearly unconscious.

But he used up his last bit of strength.

He says--

"What my heart desires, I will not regret even if I die nine times."

Zhang Gongmingjian.

This person is an eighth-rank Mo cultivator who has only been in the Mo Sect for a few months, has only met Wu Qiufeng a few times, and is completely unfamiliar with the people of Qingzhou.

He could have stood by and done nothing.

He could have stayed out of it.

He could have just waited for others to fight, like everyone else.

But he didn't.

He rushed over.

They charged headlong into the deadly poisonous cloud.

Such a person—

Yun didn't know how to comment.

I will report this matter truthfully and ask Lord Zhang for his decision.

Additionally: Cheng Laiyun is currently unconscious and urgently needs a Nine-Turn Jade Toad Pill.

Lord Zhang is a man of discernment, and surely he would not stand idly by and watch someone die.

Respectfully submitted by Gao Heyun, Provincial Surveillance Commissioner of Qingzhou, on the night of the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Gao Heyun watched as the spirit paper in front of her slowly dissipated.

She remained expressionless, slowly raising her head to look at the twinkling stars in the night sky.

He was completely absorbed in watching it.

Beijing.

cabinet.

late at night.

Zhang Linzheng sat alone at his desk.

The candlelight flickered, reflecting off his face and revealing his handsome, jade-like features.

He just put down a page of the folding book.

The space in front of them suddenly distorted.

Zhang Linzheng paused for a moment, then looked up with interest at the distorted space.

A flash of blue light.

Two illusory spirit papers appeared simultaneously in front of him, one in front and one behind.

The above are all in the elegant handwriting style.

"Um?

'

With just one glance, Zhang Linzheng read through both letters.

All information is known.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, a faint smile playing at the corners of his lips: "Miaozhen and Heyun—both are protecting an eighth-rank Mo cultivator at the same time?"

"hehe."

Zhang Linzheng got up, walked to the courtyard, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the starry sky.

After a long while.

"This is what my heart desires—"

He muttered to himself, then suddenly smiled.

Then, they returned to the house.

With a flick of his wrist, a halo of light appeared.

He picked up the magic pen and slowly lowered it over the halo of light: "Verify."

"Zhang Hong colluded with the demon race; his entire clan was exterminated."

"The Regent is hereby ordered to thoroughly investigate the remaining members of the Zhang family and all those involved, and to deal with them strictly in accordance with the law."

"Wu Qiufeng is posthumously awarded the title of Zhongwu Colonel, given a grand funeral, and his family receives double the compensation."

"Zhou Linghe, one commendation."

"Gao Heyun, one commendation."

"Cheng Laiyunyi"

His pen paused.

Then he wrote: "I will reward you with one Nine-Turn Jade Toad Pill."

He put down his pen, took a small jade box from his desk, and gently pushed it aside.

He then stood up, walked to the window, and stood with his hands behind his back.

The moonlight shone on him, illuminating his slender and upright figure.

a long time.

He gazed at the vast starry sky and murmured softly:

-

"Even if he dies nine times, he will not regret it."
