Chapter 7: Huawanshu of Baihua Valley

Tang Chuyao immediately clung to one of Ke Wuwei’s arms with a pitiful expression, “Bone-corroding poison, and facial-corroding poison.”

Tang Chuyao could clearly feel Ke Wuwei stiffen, as if he had been struck by lightning, and for a long moment, he couldn’t utter a word.

Ke Wuwei, who usually concealed his emotions, now wore a face of deep sorrow, choking back words.

After a few moments of trembling lips, Tang Chuyao heard his voice, “You troublesome girl! Always causing me trouble, are you afraid I’ll live too long!”

Tears streamed down Tang Chuyao’s face like a broken string of pearls, and Dujian quietly wiped her own tears.

Seeing her tears, Ke Wuwei felt even more heartbroken. He lovingly stroked her hair, just like when she was a child, “Yao Yao, don’t be afraid; Master will treat you!”

“Even if it costs the entire Xiaoyao Valley, I will definitely cure you!”

Tang Chuyao finally lost control and began to cry loudly, “Master…”

Her hoarse voice combined with her cries was truly unpleasant to hear.

With a loud “bang,” the mood of those at the door was instantly interrupted. Although Tang Chuyao stopped crying, she continued to sniffle, “Master, is my senior sister here?”

When she was in the sect, her senior sister had aspired to become a chef, but she had no talent for it.

The kitchen had been blown to pieces by her senior sister’s internal power, to the point where Master forbade her from going near the kitchen.

The familiar sound of an explosion made Tang Chuyao instantly think of her senior sister, Huang Xiaoyu.

Sure enough, the next moment, a completely blackened figure rushed out from inside. Upon seeing Tang Chuyao, the person’s face was all black, revealing a big white grin, “Junior sister!”

From the voice, it was undoubtedly her senior sister!

Dujian sighed and stepped forward to bow to Huang Xiaoyu, “Huang senior sister, it’s still better for me to…”

Huang Xiaoyu replied cheerfully, “Sure, sure, let’s go together.”

After that, they hugged Dujian like good friends and headed towards the kitchen. Dujian, with a face of disdain, wanted to distance herself, but was no match for her senior sister’s strength…

Ke Wuwei led Tang Chuyao into the courtyard, where a beautiful woman in her thirties was lounging on a deck chair under a grapevine.

The woman had exceptionally well-maintained skin, supple and delicate, as if it could be broken by a gentle blow.

Hearing the commotion, the woman opened her eyes, looked at Tang Chuyao, and smiled, “Hello, little Yao Yao.”

This woman was the master of Baihua Valley, Hua Wanshu!

It was said that Master had a fondness for the valley master, and this time he actually brought her out!

Hua Wanshu rose from the deck chair and instantly came to Tang Chuyao’s side, looking her over thoughtfully.

It was wonderful that Hua Wanshu was here! Tang Chuyao didn’t beat around the bush and directly explained her purpose.

“Junior has come to see the valley master!”

“I’m sure the valley master has noticed that the poison I’m afflicted with is the bone-corroding poison and facial-corroding poison!”

“Therefore, I would like to ask the senior for medicine; as for compensation, my master said that the entire Xiaoyao Valley can be offered to treat my illness.”

Ke Wuwei was almost so furious he could spit blood!

This rebellious disciple!

He said it like that, but how could one come up and reveal their family assets to a seller?

Shouldn’t they be haggling?

After saying that, Tang Chuyao moved a little closer and lowered her voice, “Valley master, even my master can be considered part of the payment for the consultation…”

Ke Wuwei thought: Among the three present, aside from you, this girl with poor martial arts, who isn’t a master?

Do you think I can’t hear this little voice?

Not only can I hear it, but it’s also very clear!

This rebellious disciple!

Hua Wanshu looked at the gloomy Ke Wuwei and laughed heartily, “Hahaha…”

“Little Yao Yao, you’re so adorable!”

“I just feel like you’re like our Baihua Valley disciples!”

“With your overall demeanor and way of speaking, it’s truly a waste of talent for Baihua Valley!”

“Right, Senior Hua? I think so too.” After saying that, the two linked arms and went inside together.

Ke Wuwei: This is heart-wrenching! Why should he care about this rebellious girl!

However, seeing Yao Yao’s lively appearance, Ke Wuwei felt a sense of relief; his lively little disciple seemed to have returned!

After Hua Wanshu checked Tang Chuyao’s pulse, she curiously asked, “You actually know what kind of poison you’ve been afflicted with!”

“Do you know how to cure this poison?”

Tang Chuyao nodded and proceeded to explain the antidote materials, leaving Hua Wanshu astonished from beginning to end.

“Little Yao Yao, have you considered joining us in Baihua Valley?”

“I really think you have great talent!”

Tang Chuyao felt a bit shy; she couldn’t reveal the truth!

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of your poison!”

Hua Wanshu paused for a moment before continuing, “However, I have a condition.”

Every year, Baihua Valley disciples had to venture out for experience, so it was impossible to request Hua Wanshu to leave!

It seemed Master had certainly made many sacrifices, which warmed Tang Chuyao’s heart.

“Senior Hua, please say it. As long as I can do it, I will do my utmost!”

Hua Wanshu waved her hand, “No need to be so gruesome!”

Then she appeared a bit shy, “Well, I think you’re your master’s most beloved disciple. Could you please speak highly of me in front of your master?”

“Huh??”

Tang Chuyao looked confused; what was going on?

Why did it feel like the valley master was pursuing her master?

Tang Chuyao pretended to be troubled, rubbing her chin,

“Alright, I’ll reluctantly agree!!”

“Wow, little Yao Yao, you’re just too wonderful!”

After saying that, Hua Wanshu took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Tang Chuyao, “This is a throat soother. Your throat was injured when you fell into the water last time, and this can help you quickly recover your voice!”

“Thank you, senior! You’re truly beautiful and kind-hearted!”

“Not at all!”

Tang Chuyao and Hua Wanshu exchanged compliments…

After lunch, Tang Chuyao and Hua Wanshu agreed to meet again in seven days for treatment and also obtained a set of martial arts techniques from Master, along with a dagger that could cut through iron like mud. Oh, and her senior sister was also satisfied before leaving.

Before leaving, Hua Wanshu gave Tang Chuyao a few bottles of health-enhancing pills, instructing her to take them daily to improve her constitution in preparation for the detoxification in seven days.

In the lonely courtyard, only Master and Senior Hua remained. Before leaving, Tang Chuyao winked at Master, signaling him to seize the opportunity!

Ke Wuwei felt a headache coming on; no matter how he looked at it, he needed to clear the air!
