Faced with Zhu Wushi's confident reply, Shangguan Haitang looked puzzled and asked, "Why is Godfather so sure?"

Zhu Wushi said in a deep voice, "What do you think was Chu Qinghe's attitude towards me just now?"

After thinking for a moment, Shangguan Haitang said, "Neither humble nor arrogant, but calm and composed."

Zhu Wushi continued to ask, "According to the information you have gathered, this Chu Qinghe is only twenty-one years old, but his medical skills are extraordinary, and his cultivation has reached the early stage of the Innate Realm. What evaluation do you think such a person deserves?"

After thinking for a moment, Shangguan Haitang analyzed, "Putting everything else aside, the fact that he was able to cure his adoptive mother in such a short time is enough to make Young Master Chu's medical skills the best in the world. Not to mention that he has the cultivation of the Innate Realm at the age of just over 20. Looking at the world, he can probably be called 'unparalleled'."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wushi chuckled and said, "What if I told you that, apart from the Grand Palace Master of the Flower Palace who moved today, Dongfang Bubai of the Sun Moon Divine Sect and Shuimu Yin Ji of the Divine Water Palace are also Chu Qinghe's women?"

Shangguan Haitang's expression changed, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How is this possible?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, seeing Zhu Wushi's expression, Shangguan Haitang exclaimed in shock, "Could it be that what Godfather said is true?"

Zhu Wushi nodded slightly in response.

Upon receiving confirmation from Zhu Wushi, Shangguan Haitang was overwhelmed with emotion.

"Dongfang Bubai, Shuimu Yinji, and Yaoyue can be said to be the three strongest young women in the Ming Dynasty. All three have now entered the Grandmaster realm and are unparalleled in talent. Unexpectedly, these three have fallen in love with the same man."

However, amidst this surprise, Shangguan Haitang couldn't help but recall Chu Qinghe's handsome face and gentle demeanor.

The surprise in my heart quickly dissipated, replaced by a feeling that it was only natural.

After a short while, Shangguan Haitang spoke up: "If these three are all Young Master Chu's women, then Young Master Chu's power is truly frightening."

Both Shenshui Palace and Yihua Palace are top-tier forces with numerous experts among them.

Although the Sun Moon Cult is far inferior, Dongfang Bubai is still a powerful expert at the early stage of the Grandmaster realm.

Since Dongfang Bubai and the others are all Chu Qinghe's women, from another perspective, it is equivalent to Chu Qinghe having two top-tier forces and a first-class force standing behind him.

Furthermore, because of Chu Qinghe, if anyone wants to take action against any of the three forces—Yihua Palace, Shenshui Palace, or even the Sun Moon Divine Sect—they must also take into account the other two women and the forces behind them.

If this news were to get out, the whole world would probably be shaken.

Having understood Chu Qinghe's situation, Shangguan Haitang no longer mentioned recruiting Chu Qinghe.

The prerequisite for recruitment is having attractive conditions.

But given Chu Qinghe's current situation, what can Zhu Wushi offer to recruit him?

At this moment, Shangguan Haitang looked at Zhu Wushi as if she had remembered something, her face showing hesitation.

Seeing Shangguan Haitang's expression, Zhu Wushi said calmly, "You want to ask why Chu Qinghe asked you to leave earlier, right?"

Shangguan Haitang nodded in acknowledgment.

Zhu Wushi said slowly, "He wants my 'Absorption Technique'."

"The Absorption Technique? The mid-grade Heaven-rank martial art that my godfather obtained from the Strange Hero of Tianchi back then?"

Zhu Wushi nodded and said, "That's right!"

Hearing what Zhu Wushi said, Shangguan Haitang couldn't help but say, "What a huge appetite! To get him to treat his adoptive mother, he actually wants a mid-grade Heaven-rank martial art as payment."

However, Zhu Wushi shook his head and said, "However, after I wrote out the 'Absorption Technique,' he only glanced at it a few times before destroying the cultivation method of the 'Absorption Technique.'"

Shangguan Haitang asked in astonishment, "You destroyed it after only glancing at it a few times?"

Zhu Wushi said slowly, "It was only about ten breaths in total."

After a few breaths, Shangguan Haitang spoke up: "About ten breaths, in such a short time, do you really think he can memorize all the contents of this 'Absorption Technique'?"

But as soon as she said this, Shangguan Haitang frowned and said, "That's not right! As the grade of martial arts increases, the content also becomes more complex. My godfather's 'Absorption Technique' is a mid-grade Heaven-rank martial art, and the content of it is as many as a thousand words. In ten breaths, unless one can read ten lines at a glance, one can barely finish reading it, let alone memorize it completely. Sima Nan, who is known as the best memory in the world in the number one manor under heaven, although he has the ability to remember everything he sees, still needs to read it carefully before he can completely recite the content. It is impossible for him to completely memorize the content of a Heaven-rank martial art with more than a thousand words in ten breaths."

Seeing Shangguan Haitang's puzzled expression, Zhu Wushi shook his head and said, "I have the same idea as you. To memorize the entire contents of a mid-grade Heaven-rank martial art in ten breaths is something that no ordinary person can achieve. It seems that Chu Qinghe is just deliberately making things difficult for you."

"Making things difficult?"

Faced with Shangguan Haitang's doubts, Zhu Wushi said slowly, "At such a young age, to have achieved so much, it's inevitable that one will have some special habits due to arrogance. Such things are not uncommon."

After thinking for a moment, Shangguan Haitang nodded and said, "That's true. In such a short time, even if you read my godfather's 'Absorption Technique,' it would be impossible to learn it so easily. In comparison, after reading my godfather's 'Absorption Technique,' I took action to save my godmother, which can be considered as keeping my word."

At this moment, Zhu changed the subject, asking, "Have you heard anything about the yellow-lettered spies you were asked to find?"

In response to Zhu Wushi's question, Shangguan Haitang shook her head and said, "After New Year's Eve this year, although the number one manor in the world has recruited many famous masters in the martial arts world, including many innate realm martial artists, most of them were killed or injured in the battle with the East Depot. In particular, most of the innate realm martial artists were killed or injured in the battle with the East Depot a month ago for the sake of Lord Yang's orphan."
