Imperial Cultivation

#400 - Wooden sword

Chu Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Caifu also relaxed, looked at the direction where the golden light disappeared, and sighed.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu, don't worry, there will be no problems with these two horses."

"I'm not worried about the horses, I'm worried about Miaozhen.

"I think His Highness is doing fine."

"She seems fine now, but it's hard to say once she sees my second sister.

"Zhu Caifu shook his head and said, "Actually, Miaozhen's heart is very bitter."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Because of Consort Shu?"

"My second sister has always been in poor health and in a bad mood."

"Because of the Seventeenth Prince's matter?"

"You actually know about it?"

"I've heard a little about it," Chu Zhiyuan said.

"Sigh," Zhu Caifu shook his head and said, "Every family has its own problems."

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded, "To outsiders, being an imperial concubine means being wealthy and enjoying extreme riches, and they should be as happy as immortals, but little do they know that their troubles are even greater than ordinary people's."

Zhu Caifu looked at him thoughtfully, then thought of his experience and nodded.

She shook her head and laughed, "Compared to the grievances you've suffered, my second sister's grievances are nothing."

Chu Zhiyuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the lush pine forest, and smiled, "Does Consort Shu not want the Seventeenth Prince to be involved in the struggle for the throne, or does she want the Seventeenth Prince to fight for the throne?"

"What do you think?"

"It seems that the Seventeenth Prince has a chance to fight for the throne, so wouldn't it be perfect to join Wentian Cliff?"

"How can we guess what my second sister is thinking? She has been smart since she was a child, and we are not as good as her."

"Once you want to fight for something, it will be endless trouble," Chu Zhiyuan said with emotion.

He pondered in his heart.

Consort Shu wants the Seventeenth Prince to fight for the throne, so she doesn't want him to join Wentian Cliff.

Has she seen something, seen the Emperor's intentions?

Does the Emperor of Great Zhen have a grudge against Wentian Cliff?

Is it something that has always existed, or did it start with this Emperor?

Both want to figure out Wentian Cliff and want to bring down Wentian Cliff.

"Alright, I should go now," Zhu Caifu said, "I estimate I won't be back for a while."

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.

Zhu Caifu said, "You also know medical skills, right?"

Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Caifu said, "I heard that you cured your grandmother's addiction.

"...It was just a coincidence," Chu Zhiyuan said, "A blind cat catching a dead mouse."

Zhu Caifu sighed, "If my second sister really can't make it, please help take a look."

Chu Zhiyuan quickly waved his hand.

He was shocked by Zhu Caifu's whimsical idea.

He never expected Zhu Caifu to have such an idea.

Grandmasters act capriciously and arbitrarily, without restraining their personality and weaknesses.

Some Grandmasters indeed have the demeanor of a sect master, while others have no image at all.

Whether or not to pay attention to demeanor depends entirely on one's own thoughts.

Zhu Caifu is casual and too lazy to use his brain, often running over to ask for ideas, without regard for the dignity and face of a Grandmaster.

From this, he deduced that the achievements of a Grandmaster have nothing to do with IQ or EQ, nor with the wisdom of dealing with people.

The key is still the talent for cultivation, the understanding of heaven and earth, and opportunity.

"What, you're not willing to save my second sister?"

"Mr. Zhu, it's not that I'm unwilling to save her, it's that I can't save her even if I wanted to," Chu Zhiyuan explained, "Not to mention the Emperor of Great Zhen has many tricks up his sleeve, there are also Wentian Cliff and various strange people and strangers, why would they need me?"

Zhu Caifu sneered, "A bunch of good-for-nothings, or pretending to be good-for-nothings.

If they really had a way, my second sister's illness wouldn't have dragged on until now."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Even if I wanted to save her, the distance is so far, from Shenjing to Yujing, she would be exhausted even if she had a breath left."

"Miaozhen will ride the Tianlong Divine Horse and hold her, and she will be here soon."

"...Consort Shu wouldn't want that either," Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "This concerns the face of Great Zhen, and we must think about the Seventeenth Prince."

"She's about to die, and she still has to consider the face of Great Zhen?" Zhu Caifu scoffed.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Even if Consort Shu doesn't want to, what about the Emperor?"

Riding the Tianlong Divine Horse, it would probably take about a day to get from Shenjing to Yujing.

The Tianlong Divine Horses have been fed with monster crystals and are no longer what they used to be, their speed is even faster.

When they run, they will naturally gush out Gang Qi to protect the people on the horse.

More importantly, they run as if on flat ground, without any bumps, much more comfortable than sitting in a carriage.

But none of this is so important, and not to mention Consort Shu's intentions, even the Emperor of Great Zhen would not allow this.

Whether or not it can be cured is another matter, bringing Consort Shu to Yujing itself would show that Great Zhen is inferior to Great Jing.

How could the Emperor of Great Zhen tolerate this?

"Does the Emperor still have the face to stop it?" Zhu Caifu sneered, "If it weren't for his incompetence, would my second sister have become like this?"

"...Mr. Zhu, you still need to think twice," Chu Zhiyuan said, "Moreover, I am really not a divine doctor, the imperial physicians in the palace can't do anything, let alone me."

"What about Consort Rou?" Zhu Caifu hummed.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at her.

Zhu Caifu had a smug look on her face, as if to say, what else do you have to say!

Chu Zhiyuan just shook his head, feeling that he couldn't explain it clearly.

Zhu Caifu said, "Don't worry, even if it doesn't work, I won't blame you."

Chu Zhiyuan was helpless, knowing that he couldn't explain it with words, so he could only take it one step at a time.

Moreover, Cheng Miaozhen is still reliable and won't mess around like this.

"Is Mr. Zhu going back, or waiting in Yujing?"

"I'm worried about Miaozhen, so I have to go back."

"Then you have to hurry, so as not to catch up with the Tianlong Divine Horse."

"Heh," Zhu Caifu scoffed, "I can't catch up with them? ...With Yuzhen, I can't catch up with them, without Miaozhen, I can catch up in a little while."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "It's good to arrive one step earlier."

"Alright, then I'll go," Zhu Caifu said, "Don't forget, don't be hesitant when you really need to help."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Okay, if it really comes to that, I will try my best."

"Here, this is for you," Zhu Caifu took out a small knife from his sleeve and threw it to Chu Zhiyuan, "Consider it a reward."

Chu Zhiyuan took it, but it was a small, black knife, the length of a palm.

It was like charcoal carved, light and weightless.

It turned out to be a small wooden knife.

He flicked it casually, and it crashed into a pine tree with a "bang" and fell down.

He reached out and summoned it back to his hand.

Zhu Caifu said, "I got this from the ruins of a secret place.

It should be something from a swordsman or a sword sect.

There is a set of swordsmanship inheritance inside, which is quite interesting."

Chu Zhiyuan's spirits lifted.

"Satisfied?" Zhu Caifu smiled triumphantly, "I'm leaving."

She disappeared in a flash.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at the place where she disappeared, smiled, and felt that this Zhu Caifu was not bad.

He lowered his head to look at the black wooden knife, concentrated and slightly moved, probing into the wooden knife.

Suddenly, his eyes blurred.

In a trance, he was sitting on a mountain peak, with dark clouds spreading and purple lightning occasionally flashing and disappearing.

The dark clouds seemed to be pressing down, the sky and earth were gloomy, and the occasional flash of purple lightning made the sky and earth bright.

He stared straight at the dark clouds, and his eyes also flashed with fleeting lightning.

The lightning, which seemed slow but actually flashed quickly, gave him a strange feeling.
