Xu Lin glanced at Jun Ze thoughtfully, then suddenly stretched out his hand toward him and said, "Come, let me take your pulse too."
Junze:?
However, he still raised his hand cooperatively.
After taking his pulse for a while, Xu Lin cleared his throat and said, "You have such a strong internal heat. How about I prescribe some heat-clearing prescription for you?"
Junze: ...
He withdrew his hand indifferently and glanced at him.
Xu Lin didn't find out anything remarkable, such as whether there was any special substance in Jun Ze's body that could just cure Chen Yao's heart-eating poison.
Therefore, he conceded that Chen Yao was able to slowly cure the poison because of his own practice, coupled with the help of dual cultivation.
So he gave her another prescription, prepared the medicine, and asked her to take it together with the previous medicine.
After Chen Yao and Jun Ze got the medicine, they left not long after.
Junze next had to go to the deep mountains and forests to check on the training progress of his twelve disciples, so he asked Chen Yao if she wanted to go with him.
Chen Yao thought of the strange man who had quietly passed her a note when she first went to the food hall. She could go there and find out more about him when she had time. She shook her head and said, "Master, I won't go for now. You go by yourself."
Junze paused: "You, won't you come with me?"
Chen Yao pursed her lips: "Well, I'm not going."
Jun Ze gently squeezed her soft hand and asked, "Why didn't you go? Is it because you didn't want to go? Do you think watching them perform tricks is boring? Or is it because of something else?"
Chen Yao: “I just don’t want to go.”
Junze: "Okay, then I'll take you back first, and then I'll go alone."
Chen Yao waved her hand: "No need, Master, I just want to walk around here. When I get tired, I can go back by myself."
It just so happened that Junze was not by her side, so she could act more conveniently.
But when Junze heard her say that she wanted to go for a walk alone, he became worried. Although her activities were limited to this sect, he was inexplicably worried.
Maybe he was already used to practicing with her every day, and the two of them were often inseparable, so suddenly having to be separated for most of the day, leaving her alone in this unfamiliar area, he felt a little... uneasy.
Chen Yao didn't have so many concerns. After all, she had the system and many props to use. No matter what situation she encountered, she would be more than able to protect herself.
She hugged Junze and said softly, "Master, you can go find the brothers without worry. I can do it alone. At worst, I can fly over to the forest to find you."
Junze smiled, rubbed her head, and said, "Okay."
…
The two parted ways, Junze went towards the woods, while Chen Yao seemed to be wandering aimlessly on the road.
The system helped her find the current location of the strange man she had seen last time. It said, "Host, he is currently about 30 degrees to the left of your north direction, approximately 873 meters away."
Chen Yao turned around and immediately changed direction, saying, "Okay, I'll go find him now."
Just when Shen Yao was about to walk to the man, he suddenly turned around as if he had a premonition and glanced at Shen Yao sharply.
"Meet at the pavilion in the back mountain in a quarter of an hour. Let's go our separate ways and don't attract other people's attention." He said these words quickly in a voice that only Chen Yao could hear, and then hurriedly left.
Chen Yao looked at his back as he quickly left, lost in thought.
About a quarter of an hour later, she appeared in the pavilion on the back mountain as promised.
The man first scolded her fiercely: "Last time, you broke your promise. Do you know how long I waited for you here? How dare you play tricks on me? Are you thinking..."
Chen Yao interrupted him coldly and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to talk to me about? If you have something to say, just say it directly. If not, don't bother me again in the future."
The man was stunned. He didn't expect her to be so strong.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at her for a few times, and then said, "My name is Zhao Ming. Zi Yue sent me here to supervise your progress. From now on, you will come here to report to me, and I will bring the news back to the Huihuan Sect."
Chen Yao smiled: "Oh, progress?"
Zhao Ming nodded. "Well, if you bring me the news sooner, the Heart-Eating Charm on you can be removed a day earlier. I'm sure the pain of the Heart-Eating Charm must be very hard to endure, right? You don't want to suffer like this forever, do you?"
Chen Yao nodded perfunctorily.
While he was talking, she was looking at his appearance carefully, thinking that next time she could disguise herself as him and go meet Zi Yue.
Zhao Ming was very unhappy to see that she hadn't mentioned the Clear Decision Technique yet, so he took the initiative to ask, "You've been in Xuanjian Sect for a while now, right? How have you been finding out about the Clear Decision Technique? What does Jun Ze think of you?"
Chen Yao raised her eyebrows. It seemed that this person was not very well-informed. He didn't even know that she and Jun Ze had become Taoist partners.
After thinking for a moment, she casually replied, "I don't know. I haven't heard anything."
Then, she took the opportunity to extract information from him: "How often do you usually return to the Hehuan Sect? Besides you, are there any other companions among us?"
Seeing her eagerness for knowledge, Zhao Ming's heart swelled a little, and he said without defense, "Companions, there are quite a few. In the dining hall alone, there are two others besides me. In addition, there are about five or six people who have successfully sneaked in to become my disciples and practice."
Chen Yao continued to ask: "Then what is their purpose in sneaking in? It shouldn't be all about clearing the mind, right?"
Zhao Ming chuckled: "Of course not all of them... We in the Hehuan Sect want more than just..."
At this point, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have said too much, so he stopped talking in time and said coldly, "Why are you asking so many questions? These are not things you should be curious about."
Chen Yao: "Oh, that's it."
Zhao Ming gritted his teeth, feeling inexplicably that he had been tricked by her, but seeing her innocent look, it shouldn't be the case, right?
Besides, the ambition that he accidentally let slip just now is already known to everyone in the Hehuan Sect. It doesn't matter even if he says it out loud, right?
After thinking it through, the uneasy feeling in his heart faded away. He just said it, and it shouldn't be a problem. This woman couldn't cause any trouble anyway.
