The doctor left.

This was the third doctor Wang Daoqing had invited, but none of them could do anything about Li Daoxuan's injuries.

"Even if the bones are set, he'll still be a cripple! There's nothing I can do about it!"

Wang Daoqing closed his eyes in disappointment.

Li Daoxuan comforted him, saying it was nothing serious, just a minor injury for him.

At worst, I'll just walk a little slower in the future.

Wang Daoqing looked up, gritted his teeth, and stared in the direction of Wang Jiuling. If it weren't for Wang Jiuling's sudden arrival, why would their Qixia Temple have to be in this situation?

Wang Daoqing truly hated Wang Jiuling.

But he didn't say anything because he didn't want to put his senior brother in a difficult position.

Wang Jiuling had already come up with a solution.

That is the Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment.

In the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber storyline, Yu Daiyan suffered from shattered joints all over his body, but he was able to be healed with the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment twenty years later.

If Li Daoxuan had the Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment, his injuries would not be a problem at all.

His destination was the Vajra Gate.

The Black Jade Broken-Healing Ointment—isn't that something from the Vajra Sect of the Western Regions?

Wang Jiuling quickly told Li Daoxuan and Wang Daoqing about the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment.

"My two senior brothers, my destination is the Vajra Sect. Once I retrieve the Black Jade Healing Ointment, your injuries will be healed quickly!"

Such miraculous medicines were truly unheard of, and both Li Daoxuan and Wang Daoqing were shocked upon hearing them.

But Wang Jiuling's words were so logical and reasonable that they didn't seem to be fabricated.

Wang Daoqing was about to get up and go find the Vajra Sect, but Wang Jiuling stopped him.

"Senior Brother Wang, you must stay and take care of Senior Brother Li! Don't worry, I will definitely bring back the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment!"

The two monks in plain clothes who came to Qixia Temple with him saw Li Daoxuan's injuries and whispered that they knew some methods to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

"However, layman, we can only alleviate Mr. Li's pain; we are powerless to set his bones."

The two immediately demonstrated a few massage techniques to Wang Jiuling.

Believe it or not, it really worked; Li Daoxuan's expression noticeably relaxed.

Wang Jiuling immediately decided to take Qiu Qianren on a journey to the Vajra Gate.

Since the two monks in plain clothes were not skilled enough in martial arts, Wang Jiuling planned to launch a surprise attack on the Vajra Gate with light equipment, so he asked them to stay at Qixia Temple to help take care of Li Daoxuan.

"Amitabha! This is a virtuous deed, and we two cannot shirk our duty!"

They were just thinking about how to repay Wang Jiuling for saving their lives when the opportunity arose.

"My two senior brothers, wait for me to return! I will definitely bring back the Black Jade Rejuvenating Ointment!"

Wang Jiuling was a man of action; he didn't waste time on empty words, since that stuff couldn't cure his injuries anyway.

We can make amends after we cure Li Daoxuan.

After everything was arranged, we set off that same day.

After Wang Jiuling left, Wang Daoqing stayed by Li Daoxuan's bedside.

Two monks were giving Li Daoxuan a massage to make him feel better.

Looking at his senior brother's pale face, Wang Daoqing couldn't help but grit his teeth.

The doctor said my senior brother's joints are broken and he'll be lame for life!

Senior brother got injured like this while helping Wang Jiuling.

However, Wang Daoqing also felt that his junior brother had acted out of spite, which forced his senior brother to chase after Qiu Qianren alone.

But the more he thought about it, the more something seemed off.

His senior brother was so badly injured trying to help him that he's almost crippled.

But when Wang Jiuling returned, he didn't say a few kind words and then left.

He said he was going to the Vajra Gate to find some kind of Black Jade Broken-Healing Ointment.

Wang Daoqing had never heard of this medicine before.

Wang Jiuling's previous words seemed plausible, but upon reflection, they were most likely just excuses he used to shirk responsibility.

The doctors said they had no other options. What kind of lousy ointment could set bones?

The more Wang Daoqing thought about it, the more he felt that Wang Jiuling was a swindler.

He got up and went outside, instructing his disciples, "Prepare a carriage and bring bedding; I'm taking my senior brother to seek out a renowned doctor!"

Before long, the carriage was ready.

When Wang Daoqing returned, he personally helped Li Daoxuan up from the bed.

"Senior brother! Let's go find a doctor!"

Li Daoxuan was somewhat surprised. "Junior Brother, Junior Brother Wang told us to wait for him..."

"wait?"

Wang Daoqing's eyes were red.

"Senior brother, your legs can't wait! Who knows if he's telling the truth?"

"What if he never comes back? What if that's just an excuse?!"

Despite Li Daoxuan's refusal, Wang Daoqing insisted on carrying Li Daoxuan out of the house.

But he was stopped by two monks standing nearby.

"Amitabha! Before leaving, Layman Wang instructed that you two should wait quietly at Qixia Temple."

If you move around unnecessarily, the bone fragments could easily damage the meridians in your leg, making treatment even more difficult!

Wang Daoqing narrowed his eyes. "Get out of the way! This is Qixia Temple! Not your temple!"

"I'm sorry, I can't comply." The two monks exchanged a glance and put their hands together in prayer.

"We promised Layman Wang that we would take care of Layman Li, and we must keep our word!"

Wang Daoqing was furious.

"You think you can just call my Qixia Temple your own home?!"

He took a step forward.

"Get out of my Qixia Temple now! You are not welcome here!!"

The two monks remained unmoved.

"Layman! We don't need a place to stay, nor do we need Qixia Temple to provide us with vegetarian meals; we just must take good care of Layman Li!"

Wang Daoqing could no longer contain himself and struck one of the monks on the shoulder with a palm strike.

"Get out of here!"

The monk was knocked back and landed on his backside. He got up unsteadily but did not fight back. He simply walked over and put his hands together in prayer position.

He didn't say anything.

Wang Daoqing looked at the two people in front of him with some shock.

If he had used his full strength, the monk would have been in serious trouble, but he didn't dodge.

Why didn't you move aside?!

"The layperson is not a bad person; he was just impatient for a moment..."

"Junior brother! Don't do this! Don't hit me..." Li Daoxuan's voice came from behind him. As soon as he moved, his leg started to hurt again.

The two monks quickly stepped forward to help him straighten his body and massaged his thighs.

Wang Daoqing was grinding his teeth so hard he almost broke them. He looked at the two stubborn monks, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

For a moment, the images of the two of them overlapped with those of my senior brother in my mind.

They are all such people who keep their promises...

Never mind...

Wang Daoqing sighed. He had already caused a disaster because of his impulsiveness. If he acted impulsively again and caused bad consequences, he really didn't know what to do.

Wang Daoqing opened his eyes and looked at the two monks.

"If you can't cure my senior brother, I will definitely demand an explanation from you!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Someone, go fetch some hot water!"

...

On the other side, Wang Jiuling, with Qiu Qianren whose acupoints had been sealed, was already on his way, riding a horse.

"Brother Ma, there may be dangers on your journey to the Vajra Gate. You should leave as soon as possible."
