Princess Wuyun was poisoned?
Lu Lan's brows suddenly furrowed.
Wuyun County is one of the six counties of the Dawu Kingdom. It has five cities within its scope. Its economy and overall strength are many times higher than that of Baitao City.
To be able to become the princess of Wuyun County, regardless of one’s talent, at least one must be strong enough to suppress the villains from all directions.
However, such an existence is actually poisoned?
"Princess Wuyun was poisoned... Did the letter mention the cause of the poisoning?"
"No... the doctors couldn't find the cause. And according to Princess Wuyun herself, she hasn't eaten or touched anything poisonous, let alone been bitten by a poisonous beast and poisoned."
Wen Wangu shook his head and said, "It is precisely because the cause of the poisoning is unknown and the toxicity is extremely strong that Princess Wuyun invited doctors from all over the world."
"If it weren't for Princess Wuyun's high level of cultivation, she wouldn't have survived for more than a few months."
"Then why do you want me to represent the Spirit Sword Sect to treat Princess Wuyun?"
Lu Lan asked.
"I'm looking for you because you're so young, yet you know how to help Lu Yang detoxify and heal his injuries. I think you've made some great achievements in medicine."
"Also, one of the great rewards offered by Commandery Princess Wuyun is that if a physician from a certain faction can cure him, then he will grant that faction a spot in the 'Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament'."
Wen Wangu replied with a smile.
"Hundred Sect Ranking Tournament?"
This was the first time Lu Lan heard of it.
"The Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament is the largest-scale event held by the royal family of the Great Wu Kingdom. Held every three years, each tournament will conduct a new round of rankings for the hundreds of sects in the Great Wu Kingdom."
"If a sect participates in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament and achieves a certain ranking, then the influence of this sect will be thoroughly publicized throughout the world, attracting many interested young profound practitioners to come and study, gradually strengthening their strength."
After taking a sip of tea, Wen Wangu continued:
"The reason why the Great Wu Nation has the name of the Four Great Sects is because those four sects almost always firmly occupy the top four positions in every session, but the rankings occasionally fluctuate."
"The Spirit Sword Sect was once on the Hundred Sects Rankings, but because the disciples they sent to participate in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament were too weak, the Spirit Sword Sect withdrew from the rankings."
"Now they seem to be ready to go, all they need is an opportunity to make the list."
I see……
Lu Lan nodded.
To put it simply, it was a sect that wanted to be on the list of the Hundred Sects. In order to get a spot in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament, they asked someone to treat Princess Wuyun on their behalf.
but……
"There must be a lot of dark clouds behind the poisoning of Princess Wuyun."
Lu Lan said calmly, "There's no need for me to put myself in danger just to help a sect I've never heard of."
"I knew you would say that."
Wen Wangu smiled slightly and said:
"I've heard from Patriarch Chu that you're looking for a medicinal herb called Eight-Veined Scrophulariaceae?"
"It just so happens that among the top ten in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament, the tenth place will receive the Eight Meridians Gentian Ginseng as a reward."
“!!”
Lu Lan was suddenly surprised.
Eight-veined Scrophularia is indeed the medicinal herb that Lu Lan has been looking for recently.
If you want to practice to the third level of [Dragon Elephant Subduing the World Sutra], you first need to improve your physical fitness.
Otherwise, with Lu Lan's current physical condition, he would not be able to withstand the terrifying power unleashed by the third level [Opening the Mountain].
And Eight-Vein Scrophularia is one of the medicinal herbs that Lu Lan has been looking for recently to strengthen his physical fitness.
"In other words... I can then make a request to the Spirit Sword Sect. I will go treat Princess Wuyun on their behalf, and they will agree to let me participate in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament as a disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect?"
Lu Lan spoke out.
"Yes, that's right."
Wen Wangu took out a letter from the ring, placed it on the table and pushed it towards Lu Lan.
"I wrote a letter for you. Please pass it to my brother. After he reads the letter, he should be able to help you arrange it."
Lu Lan took the envelope. In the middle of the envelope was a red clay seal with the characters "Wen Yu Ren" engraved on it.
"Thank you, Dean. This news is really important to me."
Lu Lan put the envelope away and thanked him gratefully.
"Haha, you are the most outstanding disciple in the history of my Scarlet Sky Academy. I can't help you enough. This is just a small favor, no need to thank me."
Wen Wangu said with a smile:
"Besides, if you can really make it to the top ten of the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament, then the glory will also go to my Scarlet Sky Academy!"
Lu Lan smiled slightly and nodded.
The next day.
After packing all his luggage, Lu Lan left Baitao City.
But this time, he was not alone.
He glanced at Chu Yun, who was also riding a horse beside him, and asked helplessly:
"Master, I'm going to help Princess Wuyun get rid of the poison. It's very dangerous... Why are you following me?"
"Tiantian told me that if you must go on a long trip, I must stay by your side and watch over you."
Chu Yun said with a serious face.
"Why?" Lu Lan was confused.
"She's afraid you'll find another woman outside."
Chu Yun said: "As your master and the aunt of your future wife, I also feel it is necessary to watch you."
Lu Lan: “…”
Are you so young and already feeling such a sense of crisis?
No wonder I specifically asked him that night if it was true that premature ejaculation would affect his cultivation...
However, on the way to Wuyun County, I had someone to accompany me, so I didn't feel lonely.
