Just as Chu Qinghe said, in about half an hour, not only were all the toxins removed from Wu Yazi's body, but the bones in his limbs and the meridians within them were also completely reshaped.
At this point, the true essence within Wu Yazi's body began to circulate smoothly along certain special routes.
A moment later, after Wu Yazi had collected his true energy, he carefully tried to stand up from the ground without any external force.
Wu Yazi felt no discomfort while moving his limbs.
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Su Xinghe cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations on your recovery, Master."
Upon hearing Su Xinghe's voice, Wu Yazi, though showing signs of fatigue, revealed a joyful smile.
Wang Yuyan, who was standing to the side, also spoke up: "Grandpa, are your injuries really healed?"
In response to Wang Yuyan's question, Wu Yazi smiled and said, "Yes! Everything is fine now."
When he spoke, Wu Yazi's tone, besides being joyful, also carried a hint of wistfulness.
Looking at Wang Yuyan beside him, Wu Yazi raised his hand and patted her head, saying, "I have been learning about your situation from Xinghe. You have suffered a lot these years."
Hearing what Wu Yazi said, Wang Yuyan gently shook her head and said, "It just means I can't cultivate, it's not that hard."
Looking at Wang Yuyan's obedient appearance, Wu Yazi chuckled and said, "Your personality is quite different from Qingluo's. When she was young, she wasn't as gentle as you."
Before Wang Yuyan could speak, Wu Yazi continued, "Don't worry! Your problem with the Seven Yin Meridians may be troublesome for others, but it's not a difficult matter for me. Your grandfather will personally help you open up the Seven Yin Meridians in your body later."
Wang Yuyan nodded gently and said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Wu Yazi shook his head and said, "Silly child, we're family, no need for thanks."
Then, Wu Yazi changed the subject, saying, "Alright, there are still distinguished guests waiting outside, let's go out first!"
With that, Wu Yazi slowly turned and walked out of the cave.
Wang Yuyan and Su Xinghe followed behind Wu Yazi.
A moment later, as Wu Yazi emerged from the cave, he smiled and said to Chu Qinghe, "This old man thanks you for your treatment, young master."
Chu Qinghe smiled gently and said, "It's just an equal exchange, Senior, you flatter me."
Wu Yazi shook his head and said, "Young Master's willingness to use spiritual medicine to treat him is a transaction, but this matter of protecting the Dharma has left this old man indebted to you."
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "It was just a small thing, no problem."
Seeing that Chu Qinghe didn't care at all, Wu Yazi didn't continue to speak on this matter. Instead, he glanced at the chessboard on the stone table next to him and said, "Having just recovered from a serious illness, you are in a good mood. I wonder if you would be interested in playing a game of chess with me?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "The matter is settled. I still have other matters to attend to. Once everything is settled, if you are going to the Great Ming Kingdom, I will certainly accompany you."
Wu Yazi sighed softly, "Since you have other matters to attend to, I cannot stop you. We can only wait for another time."
As he spoke, Wu Yazi raised his left hand, took off the ring that was as white as ancient jade and inlaid with seven gems of different colors and shapes, and pushed it in front of Chu Qinghe with his true essence, causing it to float in the air.
Upon seeing this ring, Su Xinghe, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but show a slight change in expression.
After presenting the ring to Chu Qinghe, Wu Yazi said, "This is the token of the leader of my Xiaoyao Sect. I will naturally take care of what you did before."
"When you need it later, young master, just have someone take this to Lingjiu Palace, and I will naturally cooperate in everything."
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe raised his hand and took the Seven Treasures Ring in his hand.
He then said to Wu Yazi, "If you have anything to say, you may come to the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion. Just leave a message with the three words 'Zhao Shanhe' and I will know that you have sent a message."
Upon hearing that Chu Qinghe was using the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion for communication, Wu Yazi and Su Xinghe were startled and became even more curious about Chu Qinghe's identity.
Before the two could think further, Chu Qinghe had already slowly stood up.
After nodding to Wang Yuyan, Chu Qinghe said, "Take care, Miss Wang."
Wang Yuyan quickly replied, "Thank you so much, Young Master Zhao, for seeing me off all the way. You are truly kind and virtuous. I will repay you when I have completed my studies."
In response to Wang Yuyan's words, Chu Qinghe smiled gently and replied, "In that case, I will wait for Miss Wang."
After saying this, Chu Qinghe nodded to Wu Yazi again before turning around and walking out of the valley.
Qu Feiyan, Xiao Zhao, and Lin Shiyin bid farewell to Wang Yuyan, gave her a few words of advice, and then followed Chu Qinghe away into the distance.
During the process, Wang Yuyan unconsciously followed the group to the outside of the valley, and even all the way to the foot of Leigu Mountain.
As Wang Yuyan watched Chu Qinghe and the others board the carriage and drive into the distant canyon, she couldn't help but recall the scenes she had experienced with Chu Qinghe and the others in the past few days.
For some reason, I felt an emptiness in my heart, and I couldn't help but have the urge to follow them and get back into the carriage.
After a long while, until the carriage in the distance disappeared completely into the canyon, Wang Yuyan suddenly turned to Wuyazi and asked, "Grandpa, tell me, what does it feel like to like someone?"
In response to Wang Yuyan's question, Wu Yazi pondered for a moment before speaking, "Perhaps, after some time, you should be able to understand this feeling."
Hearing what Wu Yazi said, Wang Yuyan couldn't help but look a little confused, clearly not understanding what Wu Yazi meant.
Wu Yazi gently shook his head at this.
Lovesickness is a poison, time can hasten its passing; each day brings an inch more of longing, and only when it seeps into the bone do we realize its depths.
With Wu Yazi's rich emotional experience, how could he not see that his granddaughter already harbored feelings of unrequited love?
And what that thread of longing connects is undoubtedly the person sitting in the carriage, quickly heading into the distance.
