They were both silent, giving a soft sigh, their eyes misty with emotion.
Looking into the distance, they seemed to see again their past comrades in arms from many years of roaming the Jianghu. Each of them had smiles as bright as flowers, galloping their horses under the spring wind and autumn moon.
Feng Yin smiled, saying, “It’s settled then. Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang will stay here and recuperate; I’ll think about how to adjust the prescription, perhaps, it could help Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang recover their strength earlier. In life, a goal is more important than anything else.”
“We’re not in a hurry on our side, your primary matters come first.” Zhu Weiran said.
“No, no. Your recovery is essential for our safety.”
Zhuang Weiran sighed, “It’s not that we don’t want to recover, but… this Seven Shadows Poison proves useless against medication. The pills you gave us yesterday were very effective, restoring about thirty percent of our strength with just over half of the medicine. However, the rest was dissolved by the Seven Shadows Poison.”
“Has the Seven Shadows Poison not been eliminated at all?” Feng Yin was taken aback.
“That’s right, it hasn’t been removed at all.”
Zhuang Weiran said, “The injuries are all healed; it’s just the Seven Shadows Poison that’s remaining.”
Feng Yin was lost for words.
Even though their injuries had completely healed and most of the poison had been neutralized, the Seven Shadows Poison had remained unaffected.
This meant his medicine was entirely useless against the Seven Shadows Poison.
This would be challenging.
“Let me think about a solution; there has to be a way.” Feng Yin pondered deeply.
“No rush, no rush.”
Zhuang Weiran couple didn’t have much hope.
That was the Seven Shadows Poison, known worldwide for having no cure!
If Feng Yin could solve it… wouldn’t he become an immortal? And does that mean he could recover from his current weakened state?
Next, Zhu Weiran began instructing Feng Yin on his martial arts training.
But in less than half an hour, Zhuang Weiran frowned at Feng Yin’s roughshod practices. If Feng Yin were not the pupil here, Zhuang Weiran would have been cursing or beating sense into him—
“You can’t train like this.”
“Your method of cultivation must be self-taught. It’s full of crude, haphazard styles, without any clear system or technique!”
“Under the same level of cultivation, any disciple from the Nine Sects could easily dominate you. They have systematic inheritance, whereas you… can only be bullied!”
Feng Yin was fully aware of his shortcomings and didn’t take Zhuang Weiran’s comments as a slight. Instead, he earnestly sought guidance.
In Feng Yin’s view, with Zhuang Weiran couple’s skills and strengths, correcting his shortcomings would be effortless. It may even save his plan for the gold rank training. But things don’t always go as planned—
“Ah, Yin boy, it’s not that I don’t want to teach you, but the prerequisite is to physically show you. Sometimes, learning can come off too light or too hard. It’s all too common…” Zhuang Weiran muttered.
“That’s a given. You don’t think I understand that, do you? Go ahead and instruct me. I promise I will only remember your kindness, and I won’t complain at all.” Feng Yin said with respect.
“It’s not that you will complain, but the problem is our vow forbids us from laying a finger on you because you are our benefactor. Even the slightest offense would constitute breaking our vow!” Zhuang Weiran solemnly said.
“Ah? But if you’re training me with good intentions, how can that be considered a violation of your vow?”
“Ah, we took our vows when we saw no hope in sight. The vows taken by cultivators are huge promises made in hopes of gaining a glimmer of life. Given the magnitude of such promises, the restrictions are more significant. Especially concerning the parties involved, any overstepping is not allowed.”
“Well, that’s no big deal. You can verbally correct me. That won’t count as touching me, right? Just a little adjustment.”
“I’ve thought about that, but your shortcomings have seeped deep into your bones. No significant pressure will correct them.”
“Verbal corrections must be repeated dozens of times each day, but you will struggle to understand them.”
Zhu Weiran was helpless, “This can only be remedied by going through some form of life-and-death experience. Regular verbal corrections are not enough.”
He sighed, saying, “The problem with self-taught martial arts is that, due to your repeated battle and life-and-death experiences, your instinctive reactions in critical moments are still haphazard. For example, if I told you about a crucial strategy a thousand times and you memorize it thoroughly, you would still revert to your old habits in a pinch without time to think.”
“Just like when encountering a sudden event on a night walk, women usually scream, and men usually curse… No matter how many noble etiquette they learn, they cannot change that. Do you understand what I mean now?”
“Only those who have undergone regular training from the beginning will have the first instinct to back off, draw a sword, attack the enemies ahead when encountering sudden situations, or get away ASAP… Do you understand now?”
“Indeed, exactly.”
Feng Yin nodded, sighing.
Seeing the shortcut was blocked, Feng Yin said helplessly, “I know I have many problems. That’s why I’ve planned to participate in the Heavenly Judge’s Gold Rank training.”
