Chapter 103: Lord Longcheng is recovering from his injuries

Chu family, practice room
Yanluo remembered the old housekeeper's instructions and hesitated at the door for a while, her face flushed. She finally mustered up the courage, knocked on the door, and said in a mosquito-like voice:
"Master, the governor is here to visit."

Chu Wujiang sat cross-legged on the futon, smiling lazily:

"Speak louder, I can't hear you."

Yanluo took the green hair out of her mouth and bit it gently. Only then did she calm down, knocked hard on the door, and shouted with full breath:
"Master, the governor is here to visit!"

Chu Wujiang changed his posture, lying on the ice bed and said:

"Then come in."

Yanluo quietly opened the door and saw her master lying on the bed resting. She quickly said:

"Master, hurry up, or the governor will be waiting anxiously..."

Chu Wujiang chuckled and interrupted directly:
"Let him wait. Come, give me a shoulder massage."

Yanluo looked at her master in amazement.

It's strange, the master is not usually like this.

Before she could react, Chu Wujiang stretched out his hand and called out:
"Come here quickly."

Yanluo had no choice but to walk to the bed and massage her master carefully.

Her technique was obviously not very skilled, she could only use her delicate hands to gently knead it, and she didn't even dare to use too much force.

[Wait, didn’t I come here to ask the master to go to the living room? ]

【Why do you want to have a massage here? 】

Chu Wujiang lay on the ice bed, feeling the comfort brought by the ice energy, and casually said:
"Push harder."

Yanluo had no choice but to increase her efforts, and asked in confusion:

"Master, that's the governor!"

How can you be so negligent?

Before she could finish her words, Chu Wujiang smiled and explained:
"This time we escaped death and faced a master of the Yuanshen Sect."

"But he came back safe and sound, nothing happened to him. Does that make sense?"

unreasonable.

"So I told Uncle Fu to tell the governor that I was recovering from my injuries and could not see him until half an hour later."

"do you understand?"

Chu Wujiang said that he had suffered a heavy loss and had paid a huge price in the face of Yuanshen Zhenren, and only then would he ask for a reward.

"The master is wise."

Yanluo was completely convinced and began to massage Chu Wujiang attentively.

[This way, I can finally enjoy the luxury of a nobleman. ]

[When you become a true Yuanshen in the future, you can enjoy the decadent life of the ruling class without any worries about all kinds of monsters and demons. ]

Chu Wujiang relaxed and said with a chuckle:

"Your strength is still too weak."

"Yanluo, try it with your feet."

Yanluo was shocked and shook her head repeatedly:
"Master, how can this be possible?"

Chu Wujiang said indifferently:

"As long as I say yes."

Yanluo is older than Chu Wujiang. She overcame her shyness, took off her straw sandals, revealing her delicate white feet. She stood carefully on the ice bed and gave a barefoot massage.

The beauty's service made him feel happy. Chu Wujiang lay on the bed and moved his mouth:

"This feels right, just a little to the left."

"Over, now go a little to the right."

"Harder."

"Yes, try harder."

Chu Wujiang commanded Yanluo and made her run around in circles. His body completely relaxed and he felt a wonderful sense of security.

Since he came here, he rarely felt so relaxed.

You don't need to worry about the enemy's sneak attacks or the conspiracies of the various families in Longzhou. You just need to enjoy the service.

In this relaxed state, Chu Wujiang once again tried his new luck [Reunification of Soul and Spirit]. He connected his soul and spirit and began to transmit the vital energy of [Harmony of Yin and Yang].

Yanluo suddenly felt a tingling sensation on the soles of her feet, causing her to shout:
"Master, don't use this kind of energy."

“It will feel tingling.”

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

"Yanluo, this is cultivation."

"The vital energy between you and me will circulate, and the speed of cultivation will be faster."

"That's impossible!"

As soon as Yanluo retorted, the vital energy of the harmony of yin and yang flowed along the Yongquan point, flowed all the way from the feet, and finally met at the Baihui point and completed the circulation.

Her entire cultivation speed suddenly increased.

【What the master said is true. 】

[Just this moment of acceleration is faster than my training in the forest! ]

Yanluo was shocked and found it unbelievable.

If one meditates normally, the amount of vital energy that can be obtained in one hour is 1. Then, by relying on the body of wood virtue and practicing in the forest, Yanluo can obtain 1.5 vital energy. By using qi-replenishing pills to speed up the practice, the amount of vital energy obtained can be 2. Now, there are at least 3.

It simply goes against the common sense of martial arts.

"Yanluo, keep going. Keep the rhythm."

"It can be even faster." While lying down and receiving a massage, Chu Wujiang's soul left his body and he tried to use his soul as a link to transfer vital energy.

In this way, when he fights with the enemy in the future, he can use his soul as tentacles to attack his opponent.

Yanluo took a deep breath and quickly responded:
"Yes, Master!"

She danced barefoot on Chu Wujiang's back.

This is the gravekeepers’ unique dance to pray for the dead, wishing all the wronged souls in the world to rest in peace.

Yanluo danced very seriously.

The vital energy of the two people also completed a cycle during the dance. With the soul and thoughts as a bridge, the vital energy could still be transmitted stably even if the legs left Chu Wujiang's body.

[From this perspective, it is entirely feasible to use the mind and soul to transmit vital energy. ]

Chu Wujiang was doing an experiment, and Yanluo's cheeks became redder and redder.

Although she was surrounded by black ice, layers of hot air and white smoke were coming out from above her head.

The whole person looks like a cooked lobster, exuding an enticing aroma.

The exchange of Yin and Yang energy makes the vital energy circulate three times faster.

When Chu Wujiang felt that the time was almost up, he chuckled and said:

"Yanluo, you can stop now."

Yanluo quickly jumped off his back and asked when she saw Chu Wujiang's pale face.

"Master, what are you doing?"

Chu Wujiang chuckled.

"You have to perform the whole act. You can't waste the energy you just used."

Since he had to fake it, Chu Wujiang gave most of his energy to Yanluo, and then used the ability of [Yin Yang Harmony] to create a sickly red complexion.

……

Chu Mansion, Living Room

Chu Wujiang changed his clothes and walked slowly to the living room with Yanluo's support. When he saw Governor Zhou, he quickly said:

"Cough cough..."

"I fought with that old Taoist and injured my foundation. I had to take elixirs to heal my injuries."

"The governor is here to visit. I am sorry for not welcoming you. I hope you will forgive me."

Upon seeing this, Governor Zhou stood up and waved his hand:
"Lord Longcheng is too polite."

"The peace of Longzhou this time all depends on you, sir."

"It is I who disturbed you and delayed your recovery."

"I wonder if Lord Longcheng is in good health."

"If you feel uncomfortable, I will visit you again on another day."

The master is not healing at all, okay?

Yanluo is considered a qualified actor, but she was just blushing in the practice room and now she is pretending to be sick here.

Chu Wujiang has a Taiyin body, skin as white as ice, and bones as fine as jade. He can disguise his pale complexion and be easily cured of a serious illness.

He pretended to cough twice and said righteously:

"Ahem, the emperor has granted Longzhou to the Chu family for six hundred years."

"The Chu family has been blessed by the emperor for generations. It is our duty to deal with the evil heresy like the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect. Ahem."

"I wonder what important matter the Governor has come to discuss with you."

"If you want to attack the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect, Chu will be the first to respond, ahem..."

Governor Zhou said quickly:
"Don't worry, Lord Longcheng. The matter of conquering the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect has been jointly handled by the Sitianjian, the gravekeeper, and the King of the East Sea."

"From Longcheng to Taodu, we have found more than 10,000 criminals related to the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect. They have been executed expeditedly in the past few days. Lord Longcheng does not need to work hard."

When Chu Wujiang heard this, he couldn't help but gasp.

In order to prove that they are doing their job, officials and nobles have tried their best to search for the suspects. Who knows how many of these more than 10,000 people are innocent?

However, Chu Wujiang was not the chief judge of the Dali Temple, so he could only continue to ask:

"The governor came here to..."

Governor Zhou quickly replied:
"I am here to inform Lord Longcheng of something important."

"First of all, the edict for Lord Longcheng to inherit the title has been issued and will arrive in Longcheng soon."

Originally, the inheritance of the title was a very complicated matter.

You have to go through rounds of tests, from temporary succession to formal inheritance, which may take you half a year.

But Chu Wujiang faced Yuanshen Zhenren head-on. Not to mention saving the safety of Longzhou, he at least saved the official hats of a lot of people. Everything went through special approval procedures and was delivered to the governor's office at an extremely fast speed.

When Chu Wujiang heard this, he immediately shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long, long live the emperor."

After all these routines were completed, Governor Zhou said the second thing:
"The second incident was that Earl Zhongyong sacrificed his own family for the greater good and reported Baili Feng for colluding with the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect."

"Bai Li Feng committed suicide."

"Loyal and Brave Earl tenders his resignation to Your Majesty and apologizes for his crime."

what?
Chu Wujiang widened his eyes.

Tail off for survival!

I was planning to investigate you further and give you the Nine Clans Candy Crush Saga, but you took action on your own?
The seemingly rude and always brave Earl, who looked like Zhang Fei, bared his ferocious fangs.

He decisively abandoned his son, letting his son take the blame to save the family.

What a ruthless means.
