Shen Bai nodded. "It’s been a while. Your strength has improved again."
"My Heart Demon has been vanquished, so naturally, I am without worry," Wuhua said slowly. "If you have the ti, Donor Shen, Xuanxin Temple would welco you with open arms."
Shen Bai said, "I’ll visit when I have the ti."
Wuhua turned his head to look at Master Xuanyang and said, "Xuanxin Temple is dedicated to vanquishing demons and does not ddle in worldly affairs. However, if you make a move against Donor Shen, everyone in Xuanxin Temple will certainly intervene."
When Wuhua said this, a strange silence fell over the scene, like a music box that had suddenly been unplugged.
All the Jianghu People fixed their gazes on Shen Bai. Their stares seed to want to peel him open and see just how many secrets he was hiding.
"The Five Immortals Sect and Xuanxin Temple are two of the most powerful factions in Fenglin State. Shen Bai is just a Loose Cultivator from a small county. How could he know them?"
"It’s more than just knowing them! Didn’t you see they’re willing to offend Qingyun Cloud Temple to help Shen Bai?"
"Their relationship must run deep. After today, the na ’Shen Bai’ will probably resound throughout Fenglin State."
"I’m more interested in seeing how Master Xuanyang is going to get out of this. It’s bound to be a good show."
The murmurs of the Jianghu People drifted into Master Xuanyang’s ears on a gust of wind.
At this point, Master Xuanyang had no desire to scold them, because he had already completely lost control of the situation.
’Is this guy really just a country bumpkin from so county seat?’
’Why would the other two factions treat him with such courtesy?’
A wave of thoughts washed over Master Xuanyang’s mind.
But no matter how many he had, he forcefully suppressed them.
His mission was to take Shen Bai away, but looking at the current situation, that was no longer possible.
That strange bunch from the Five Immortals Sect and those muscle-bound monks from Xuanxin Temple were not to be trifled with.
"Are you all really going to make an enemy of Qingyun Cloud Temple for one Shen Bai?" Sweat beaded on Master Xuanyang’s forehead.
Wuhua and Cheng Shuang said nothing, but instead of retreating, they both took a step forward.
Master Xuanyang took a small step back and said through gritted teeth, "Even if my tone was a bit excessive, Shen Bai has now injured . How do you explain that?"
"You can’t just be completely unreasonable."
He already knew he couldn’t take Shen Bai, but he couldn’t let Qingyun Cloud Temple lose all its face either.
Wuhua and Cheng Shuang exchanged a look, both frowning.
First he was ready to use force against Shen Bai, and now that things had gone sour, he was starting to talk about reason. It was simply shaless.
Shen Bai saw the entire process unfold before his eyes.
His understanding of Qingyun Cloud Temple’s shalessness had once again reached a new low.
Shen Bai pondered for a mont. Just as he was about to speak, a voice unexpectedly called out from a distance.
"We’ll take care of your injury. Take this elixir and scram."
An elixir flew through the air.
Master Xuanyang subconsciously caught it and looked toward the source of the voice, his expression changing drastically.
It wasn’t just Master Xuanyang; even the other Jianghu People now wore strange expressions.
A group of young people dressed in white, with dicine chests slung at their waists, passed through the crowd and walked toward Shen Bai.
They didn’t have powerful auras, but the gazes of every Jianghu Person who looked at them held a asure of respect.
The Hundred dicines Valley, a faction that was truly above worldly conflicts.
With benevolent hearts and miraculous skills, they healed the sick. They spent their days practicing dicine, and as long as a person was not an incorrigible evildoer, they would treat any ailnt.
The Jianghu People present had, for the most part, been treated by them at one ti or another.
There was a common saying in the Jianghu: offending a healer is a grave taboo.
So, there was a reason these Jianghu People were so respectful.
"The Hundred dicines Valley is here for Shen Bai, too?"
"This... Shen Bai’s background must be extraordinary."
"He must not be offended. If I get the chance, I have to get on his good side."
Various thoughts sprang up in the minds of the Jianghu People like bamboo shoots after the rain.
The leading male disciple of the Hundred dicines Valley slowly walked up to Shen Bai, clasped his hands, and perford a deep ninety-degree bow.
Shen Bai shifted slightly to the side, only accepting half of the bow. "We have never t. I am unworthy of such a formal greeting."
"I am Lin Yun of the Hundred dicines Valley. Greetings, Mr. Shen."
Lin Yun, dressed in white with a transcendent air, said, "When you were in Shengyun County, Mr. Shen, you helped a female disciple of our Hundred dicines Valley find release. You have shown our valley a great kindness and are more than deserving of this bow."
Shen Bai rembered.
Back when he and Wuhua dealt with the Locust Tree, he had indeed helped that horribly shad female disciple of the Hundred dicines Valley find peace.
He looked at Wuhua.
Wuhua nodded at Shen Bai. Shen Bai now knew that Wuhua was the one who had told them.
However, Wuhua had sent a letter about it at the ti, and Shen Bai had given his consent, so this was not sothing Wuhua had done behind his back.
Shen Bai reached out, helped Lin Yun up, and said, "It was a small effort, nothing more."
He had previously heard about the Hundred dicines Valley’s principles from Wuhua, so he held them in high regard.
Shen Bai believed that although he himself could not act to such a degree, it didn’t stop him from respecting those who could.
If the world treated him with courtesy, he would repay it with kindness.
If the world t him with malice, his longsword would show no rcy.
Lin Yun stood up, looked at Master Xuanyang, and said, "After you take it, you can leave."
Master Xuanyang stared at the elixir in his hand, his expression conflicted.
After a long mont, he heaved a long sigh and swallowed the elixir.
"Let’s go!"
Master Xuanyang had no other choice.
When the Five Immortals Sect appeared, the situation was still evenly matched.
When Xuanxin Temple appeared, the tables had already turned.
The final appearance of the Hundred dicines Valley was like the last straw that broke the cal’s back, leaving Master Xuanyang powerless to resist.
At first, Master Xuanyang had thought that Shen Bai would be the one to crawl off the carriage in disgrace.
But he never expected that he would be the one leaving in disgrace.
Shen Bai did not stop Master Xuanyang and his n from leaving.
There were too many people here. It wasn’t a suitable place to make a move.
The many Jianghu People gave Shen Bai one last, deep look, then also left the city gate without lingering.
Shen Bai turned and cupped his fist. "Everyone, thank you for your help today. I will rember this."
