"As long as I drain you dry, this medicinal cauldron, I can enhance my aptitude and become a dazzling prodigy. It is a blessing from your previous life to die under a peony tonight..."
<...The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, transforming into a warm medicinal power that slowly flowed down Wu Yi's throat.
In an instant, Wu Yi felt a warm current, like a babbling brook, flowing happily through his meridians.
Gradually, the warmth spread throughout his body, and he began to feel warm all over, as if he had been pulled back from a cold abyss to a warm spring day.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Wu Yi's trembling body gradually stopped shaking, and his complexion regained some color.
He took a deep breath, slowly stood up, stretched his limbs, and was pleasantly surprised to find that he had basically regained his former vitality.
Wu Yi, his face full of gratitude, quickly bowed deeply to Yang Xiao and the Marquis of Champion, sincerely thanking them: "Thank you, General Yang, for saving my life, and thank you, Marquis, for your unwavering support! If it weren't for your help today, I would probably have already perished in the jaws of that monster."
The Marquis said, “Wuyi, although you are usually taciturn and seem to have an ordinary relationship with me, I know in my heart that you are loyal to me and have no ulterior motives. Therefore, no matter what the cost, I will save you.”
It must be said that the Marquis of Champions truly possessed extraordinary ability to manage his subordinates, making them devoted and loyal to him.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yi was deeply moved. Without hesitation, he knelt down and solemnly said, "My lord, from this day forward, my life belongs to you! No matter what dangers I face, I will do anything you command!"
Marquis Champion hurriedly stepped forward and forcefully pulled Wu Yi to his feet. A flash of anger and ruthlessness crossed his eyes as he said, "Get up. This is no accident. I suspect this wave of demonic beasts was specifically targeting the Demon Suppression Division. Earlier, those people from the Demon Suppression Division used some unknown means in the Northern Mountains to lure away those demonic beasts. Only after they left did those beasts realize what was happening and launch a counterattack. We suffered such a great loss for no reason! I will settle this score with them!"
"My lord, your analysis is definitely correct. Our defeat today is entirely due to Fang Han and Tantai Qiuyue, especially Fang Han. This elaborate funeral ceremony was definitely orchestrated by Fang Han. His purpose is to gain fame in Tianyi City."
Wu Yi also said.
"My lord, what exactly is going on?"
Yang Xiao asked, completely bewildered.
In the Southern Region, the Marquis of Champion was invincible against demons, but when he came to this small Tianyi City, he suffered a great loss and almost died. He couldn't understand it.
