"Yes." Lu Yuan took out a golden needle and handed it to Taoist Priest Wu Ji, and then asked: "Taoist Priest, what is the use of this silver needle?"
"This kind of acupuncture is the acupuncture technique passed down from our Maoshan sect. Each golden needle is made of special materials and can eliminate the power of the curse."
"That's it." Lu Yuan said suddenly.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please give me the gold needle first." Taoist Master Wu Ji reached out to him and asked for the silver needle.
"Taoist Master, what do you want the silver needle for?"
"You'll know later." Taoist Priest Discord made a prank.
Lu Yuan glanced at him suspiciously and handed him the silver needle.
Taoist Priest Discord arranged the silver needles and then asked Lu Yuan to sit on the stone bench behind him. He held Lu Yuan's back with his left hand, held a golden needle with his right hand, and then inserted it into Lu Yuan's back acupuncture point.
Lu Yuan's whole body was shaking violently, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and his teeth were clenched.
"Pfft!" Suddenly, he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Taoist Master Wu Ji quickly took back the golden needle and said, "Fellow Taoist Lu, be patient for a moment, you will be fine soon."
"Huchihuchi..." Lu Yuan breathed heavily, his face extremely pale.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, hold back, hold on!" Taoist Master Discord encouraged him.
Lu Yuan nodded heavily, gritted his teeth and stared at the stream in front of him, his eyes becoming extremely red.
Time passed little by little. Taoist priest Wu Ji slowly pulled out the golden needle, and Lu Yuan spat out another mouthful of blood.
He immediately took out the elixir and stuffed it into Lu Yuan's mouth.
After a while, Lu Yuan's condition gradually returned to calm.
He stood up and twisted his stiff body. Then he moved his limbs and found that his body was fine.
Lu Yuan looked up at Daoist Discord and smiled slightly, revealing two rows of white teeth.
Taoist Priest Discord breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fellow Taoist Lu, congratulations on getting rid of the curse of the Black Demon Sect."
Lu Yuan asked with a smile: "Taoist Priest, what's going on? Does that silver needle have special effects?"
"That silver needle is made of hundred-refined steel." Taoist priest Wu Ji explained: "The gold needle can drive away evil spirits, and the silver needle can destroy evil spirits. As long as you use the silver needle to pierce the acupuncture point on the person's back, Even if he doesn’t know martial arts, he can be cured of the curse of the Black Demon Gate.”
Lu Yuan understood immediately. No wonder those warriors were willing to risk their lives to break into the restricted area in search of treasures. It turns out that this thing has a life-saving effect. But he didn't say this to Taoist Priest Discord. He believed that the Taoist priest would definitely keep his mouth shut.
He changed the subject and asked: "Taoist Priest, do you know where the Black Demon Gate is?"
Priest Discord said bitterly: "The Black Demon Sect is extremely mysterious. It rarely moves around the world, and I don't know where it is. However, after you recover from your injury, you can go to Black Cloud City and inquire about it then. After a while, we may be able to find clues to the Black Demon Gate.”
Lu Yuan nodded thoughtfully and asked, "I wonder where Black Cloud City is?"
"Heiyun City is thousands of kilometers away from here. It takes about six or seven days to walk from here to Heiyun City. It must pass through several mountains on the way." Taoist Priest Wu Ji introduced.
Lu Yuan thought to himself that he was now at the third level of Body Tempering. According to his current speed, it would take about five or six days to reach Black Cloud City.
He thought for a while and said: "Let's go on our way separately so as not to waste time."
Priest Discord also nodded in agreement.
As a result, Lu Yuan and Taoist Priest Discord separated, each speeding away in different directions. ……
Lu Yuan lifted the curse and returned to the city with Chu Yao and Ye Ling'er.
And the martial arts leader Chu Feng is looking for his precious daughter Chu Yao.
Finding that she and Lu Yuan were together, she was relieved.
Chu Feng looked at Chu Yao and Lu Yuan with a happy smile on his face. He walked forward and said to Lu Yuan: "Little friend Lu Yuan, thank you for taking care of my little girl this time."
Lu Yuan slightly cupped his hands and said: "You're welcome, leader, it's just a small effort."
Seeing her father being so polite to Lu Yuan, Chu Yao felt a little sweet in her heart. She glanced at Lu Yuan secretly, but found that Lu Yuan's expression was dull and he didn't seem to have any special reaction to his father's praise.
Chu Feng noticed Lu Yuan's attitude and was slightly startled in his heart, but he did not show it. Instead, he said with a smile: "Little friend Lu Yuan, why don't you come sit down at home and let me thank you properly."< br>
Lu Yuan wanted to refuse, but when he saw the expectant look in Chu Yao's eyes, he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed.
A group of people arrived at the Chu Mansion, and Chu Feng hosted a banquet in honor of Lu Yuan. During the dinner, Chu Feng kept praising Lu Yuan for being young, promising and powerful in martial arts, and also hinted at Chu Yao's feelings for Lu Yuan from time to time.
Chu Yao blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan, on the other hand, only responded politely to Chu Feng's compliments. He seemed not to be aware of Chu Yao's thoughts.
Ye Ling'er sat aside and looked at this scene, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. She knew that Chu Yao liked Lu Yuan, and she also knew that Lu Yuan did not have that kind of feelings for Chu Yao. She didn't know what to do, so she could only eat in silence.
After the meal, Chu Feng made an excuse and asked Chu Yao to take Lu Yuan around the house. Chu Yao was happy and took Lu Yuan to the garden.
"Lu Yuan, do you think this place is beautiful?" Chu Yao asked softly.
Lu Yuan looked at the surrounding scenery and said, "It's very beautiful."
Chu Yao smiled slightly and said: "I like this place the most. Every time I am in a bad mood, I will come here to sit for a while."
Lu Yuan didn't speak, just looked into the distance quietly.
Chu Yao felt a little disappointed when she saw Lu Yuan didn't speak. She hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage and said, "Lu Yuan, do you have someone you like?"
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "No."
Chu Yao felt happy and said: "Then what do you think of me?"
Lu Yuan glanced at Chu Yao and said, "You are fine."
A bright smile appeared on Chu Yao's face, and she said: "Lu Yuan, I like you. Are you willing to be with me?"
Lu Yuan frowned and said, "Chu Yao, I just regard you as a friend. I have never thought about these things."
Chu Yao's smile froze on her face, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes. She held back her tears and said, "Why? Is there something wrong with me?"
Lu Yuan said: "It's not that you are bad, but I don't want to think about these things now. I still have a lot of things to do."
Chu Yao lowered her head, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I understand. I won't force you. But, I will wait for you."
Lu Yuan sighed and said, "Chu Yao, you don't have to be like this. You deserve someone better."
Chu Yao shook her head and said: "In my heart, you are the best person. I will wait for you until you accept me."
Lu Yuan didn't know what to say and could only look at Chu Yao silently. (End of chapter)
