Yin Liting and Yang Buhui had already laid a solid foundation for their relationship along the way; all that was missing was the unspoken understanding between them. Now that the unspoken understanding had been broken, everything would fall into place naturally.

They then discussed that once Song Yuanqiao and his group were rescued and all the brothers were gathered together, they would get married.

After finalizing the arrangements for Yin Liting and Yang Buhui, the next step was to arrange for him and Yu Daiyan to have their bones restored.

……

In a secluded, clean room in a side hall of Zixiao Palace, soft cushions, a medicine box, strong liquor, and clean strips of cloth had already been prepared.

Yu Daiyan and Yin Liting lay side by side on the couch, while Zhang Sanfeng and the Ming Cult heroes stood guard outside, holding their breath and waiting.

Only Zhang Wuji and Song Qingshu remained in the room, creating a solemn atmosphere.

Zhang Wuji first bent down to carefully examine the two men's injuries. He ran his fingertips over Yu Daiyan's wrist pulse and then pressed on the deformed, bulging joints on his leg, his brows gradually furrowing.

As he straightened up, Zhang Wuji said with a solemn expression:

"Senior brother, Sixth Uncle's injury is recent. Although his bones are broken, his tendons and veins are not damaged. After applying the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment and fixing the bone, he should see improvement in two or three months."

But my third senior brother... has been paralyzed for twenty years.

The fracture site had already healed abnormally, the callus had necrotized, and the surrounding meridians were all blocked and atrophied.

Even if the Black Jade Broken Ointment is very potent, it is difficult to penetrate into the dead bones.

Even if it's managed to be repaired, the person will likely experience mobility issues and be unlikely to regain their former condition.

  

Song Qingshu had anticipated this.

He hesitated for a moment, then reached into his robes and took out two walnut-sized, deep purple kernels, their texture as smooth and warm as jade. He gently placed them on the table and said:

"I recently obtained two exotic peaches by chance. Consuming the flesh can increase one's martial arts skills and strengthen one's body."

I have kept these two peach pits close to my body, and there is still a lot of supernatural power remaining in the peach shells.

It can promote tissue regeneration and bone healing, and nourish the meridians, thus perfectly complementing the deficiencies of the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment.

Zhang Wuji reached out and picked up a peach pit. As soon as his fingertips touched its warm and smooth texture, a pure and sweet fragrance wafted into his nose.

His expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly looked up at Song Qingshu, his eyes filled with surprise:

"Senior brother, where did you get this peach pit from?"

The scent of these peaches is exactly the same as the ones I obtained in a valley.

Song Qingshu already had an explanation in mind, but he remained outwardly calm, instead revealing a hint of surprise:

"Oh? You've met Wuji before?"

Strangely enough, after I descended from Bright Summit, I traveled to the southern foothills and encountered several hunters chasing an old, snow-white ape. The ape had been shot in the leg with an arrow and was stumbling as it ran.

Seeing that it was quite intelligent, I intervened to drive away the hunters and applied medicine to treat its wounds.

After my injuries healed, the old ape tugged at my sleeve and led me into a secluded valley surrounded by mountains.

He paused, then slowly began to describe:

"The valley is like spring all year round, with a clear stream flowing through it, and a huge peach tree with fragrant peaches on it."

The old ape led me to the tree, picked two peaches and handed them to me, as if to thank me for saving my life.

I lingered in the valley for several days. After eating the fruit, I felt my internal energy greatly increase, and my meridians felt much smoother. I felt that the peach pit was a spiritual object, so I put it away.

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Wuji's eyes lit up, and he excitedly took half a step forward:

"Senior brother! Is that valley surrounded by steep cliffs on all sides, making it impossible for ordinary people to go up or down?"

Is there another rock face and a waterfall with a clear pool in the valley?

Song Qingshu nodded, feigning doubt: "That's right, indeed. The pool is crystal clear, and there are fish swimming in it..."

"That's it! That's it!"

Zhang Wuji couldn't help but clap his hands, his face full of joy:

"Senior brother, that is the valley where I landed after I was tricked and fell off the cliff!"

That white ape once brought me peaches!

I never imagined it would lead you there again; what an incredible coincidence!

Song Qingshu immediately feigned surprise, his eyes widening as if he had never expected such a coincidence:

"Such a strange thing? I thought it was a unique opportunity that I had encountered alone, but it turns out it was a place you had been to before!"

By the way, I found traces of digging and burying at that stone wall that day.

Upon digging it open, they found several books wrapped in oilcloth, namely the "Nine Yang Manual" and two other books, "Medical Classic" and "Poison Classic".

I wondered who would hide such a martial arts manual in a place like this…”

As he spoke, he suddenly slapped his forehead, feigning sudden realization:

"Ah! Could it be that you, Wuji, buried those three scriptures there?"

Zhang Wuji nodded with a smile, his eyes filled with relief.

"It was I who buried it. Back then, I used the Nine Yang Manual to dispel the cold poison and practice my internal strength in the valley."

Before leaving the valley, thinking that such a divine skill should not be buried, he wrapped it in oilcloth and hid it in the stone wall, hoping that someone destined would find it in the future.

I thought it would be many years before anyone discovered it, but I never expected that you, Senior Brother, would find it. It seems that this true scripture was destined to be with Wudang.

He spoke frankly, but inwardly he was secretly enlightened.

No wonder he discovered last night in the main hall that when he sparred with his senior brother and the two elders of Xuanming, his senior brother's pure Yang internal energy was profound and pure, and was in no way inferior to his own.

He had previously thought that Wudang Nine Yang Skill had been cultivated to its peak, but now he realized that his senior brother had also mastered the complete version of Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Song Qingshu smiled, following the lead of the conversation, and continued:

"It was quite a coincidence. After I came out of that valley, I saw thick smoke billowing and flames shooting into the sky from the distant mountain hollow."

When I rushed over, I found it was a place called Blizzard Manor, where the entire family had been murdered and their bodies were strewn all over the place.

When I arrived, I found someone being chased.

They rescued the person being chased from the vicious thugs.

After inquiring, I learned that the man's name was Wu Lie, the master of Blizzard Manor. To repay my life-saving grace, he had given me a finger-finger manual.

He flicked his fingertips, his tone flat:

"After practicing for a while, I discovered that this finger technique is not only powerful enough to defend against enemies, but also allows for precise control of force. It is also very useful for acupressure, meridian stimulation, and warming the meridians."

"Today, as I perform bone-setting for my third and sixth martial uncles, I can use this finger strength to clear the blocked meridians and promote the penetration of the medicine into the bones."

Upon hearing the words "Wu Lie," Zhang Wuji's smile faltered slightly.

The past of Zhu Wu's Lianhuan Manor suddenly flooded his mind. Back then, that group of people went to great lengths to trick him into revealing Xie Xun's whereabouts, but in the end, their schemes backfired, and now the manor is completely destroyed and everyone is dead.

He remained silent for a moment, then sighed softly, his feelings a mixture of joy and melancholy.

Those who scheme against themselves will ultimately suffer the consequences, but the loss of hundreds of lives in one village is truly lamentable.

"Wu Lie..." he murmured, then shook his head, suppressing his emotions. "Forget it, there's no need to bring up the past."

"Senior brother, with the help of this peach pit and that finger strength, we have a 70-80% better chance of healing our third senior uncle. Let's get started now."

Song Qingshu nodded, and the two of them said no more, composed themselves, and began to make preparations.
