“This road is yours?” Su Luo stopped when he stopped.
“You go first.”
Being followed by Su Luo, Situ Ye felt a chill run down his spine.
“Don’t guess, aren’t you going to Medicine King Valley? It’s on the way.”
“How do you know I’m going to Medicine King Valley?”
“Because I planted a spy by your side.”
Of course, it was just a lie, but it was meant to mess with his mind.
“I don’t believe you!”
Situ Ye said that, but in his mind, he already started to think about who among his ranks could be the traitor.
“No one asked you to believe me. However, you can also plant a spy near me, and I’ll take good care of him.”
So, as a sacrificial offering? Situ Ye didn’t want to end up like Qing Bukuang.
“You’re going to Medicine King Valley too, does that mean you have some hidden issues?”
Situ Ye immediately became interested; he was now eager to catch Su Luo’s weaknesses.
“Yes, yes, I still need treatment for the aftermath of that attack.”
Hearing Su Luo say that, Situ Ye felt like it might be a lie, but his reasoning was quite plausible.
Or maybe, this time I shouldn’t go to Medicine King Valley? Being with Su Luo seems like a bad omen.
But thinking about all the elixirs he’s consumed recently, the medicinal toxins had built up to a point where they needed to be cleared.
So, health comes first, I must go.
Situ Ye ignored Su Luo and continued his journey to Medicine King Valley.
Currently, Situ Ye was still accompanied by his underlings, and secretly, there was a powerful protector, Yin Youming, watching over him.
Unlike him, Su Luo’s side was eerily quiet.
“Let’s go, Yun.”
All the others had been sent away by Su Luo.
Many of Su Luo’s subordinates had died during the recent battle, but Su Luo showed no rewards or even comforting words for them.
He wanted to see how many would still follow him under this kind of leadership style.
“Here we come.” Yun and Xiao Pa followed behind.
Su Luo brought along Yun because of the upcoming plot involving the Seven Stars Sword Sect.
Seeing her decent performance, he decided to give her a chance to inform the Seven Stars Sword Sect.
On the way, there was still some time left, so Su Luo pulled out his diary and began writing.
[After the three-way battle, there was no rest, and we immediately hurried to the next performance location.]
[Even villains can only be cool for three seconds; right after showing off in front of Lin Xuan, it’s time to face the consequences.]
[This time, the place where I’ll be embarrassed is Medicine King Valley, a place specializing in treating any difficult diseases.]
[As long as you provide the right resources and a suitable price, it’s all good, even evil sects like the Heavenly Demon Sect are welcome.]
[I’ll have a minor role in this, barely worth mentioning since I’m not strong enough yet to be significant.]
[This time, the main character who gets embarrassed is Situ Ye.]
[As someone obsessed with showing off his elixirs, Situ Ye clears the medicinal toxins from his body by visiting Medicine King Valley regularly.]
[With all the resources he’s given them, over time, he has become a valued VIP at Medicine King Valley, treated with great respect.]
[But that’s about to change, as Lin Xuan will soon take his place; this is where Situ Ye gets humiliated.]
[Lin Xuan and the others are heading to Medicine King Valley because after the battle at Qinglan Plains, some disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Sect were poisoned by Liao Duci, and the poison has proven difficult to fully cure.]
[So, they’re going to Medicine King Valley for help, as they are known for their expertise in healing.]
[It’s worth mentioning that this time, Nangong Xiyun is leading the group. Everyone knows she’s a powerhouse, and with her leading the way, safety is well-assured.]
[Another reason is that she once came to Medicine King Valley to treat her disfigurement, but unfortunately, it couldn’t be cured.]
[Having her lead the group is quite fitting.]
[With the destination being Medicine King Valley, it’s reasonable for me and Situ Ye to run into Lin Xuan and his group.]
[A fight is inevitable; no need to even consider it.]
[This isn’t the main point, however. The key point is that after a fight, both me and Situ Ye are captured by Nangong Xiyun, while Lin Xuan is captured by Situ Ye’s hidden protector, Yin Youming.]
[This scenario is intriguing—both sides have important hostages, so no one dares to act rashly.]
[Initially, they discussed exchanging the hostages, but Yin Youming hesitated. He disagreed because even if they exchanged here, it would be hard to withstand Nangong Xiyun.]
[After a round of assessing, Yin Youming realized Nangong Xiyun’s strength and knew that he couldn’t defeat her alone. So, to buy time for reinforcements, he refused to swap hostages and demanded much more in return.]
[Yin Youming knew the importance of Lin Xuan, confident that the Seven Stars Sword Sect wouldn’t act recklessly.]
[In fact, his judgment was right on the mark.]
[Thus, a deadlock ensued.]
[At this moment, someone from Medicine King Valley stepped in, and naturally, the negotiation moved to Medicine King Valley to continue discussing hostage exchanges.]
[Medicine King Valley is special; their combined strength is respectable, but they’re also known for their healing abilities, which have earned them many allies. They become Medicine King Valley’s support network.]
[So, in Medicine King Valley, they set the rules. If you don’t follow them, you’ll be blacklisted, unable to receive any treatments from them.]
[With Medicine King Valley as a neutral third party, the negotiation was somewhat guaranteed.]
[Yin Youming intended to drag the process out but found that Lin Xuan was incredibly talented, even more so than Situ Ye. Intrigued, he began to tempt Lin Xuan to fall into darkness, constantly seducing him.]
[Therefore, this negotiation dragged on for half a month.]
[Because Yin Youming valued Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan was treated well by the Heavenly Demon Sect. However, poor me and Situ Ye got it rough.]
[The Seven Stars Sword Sect had long disliked us two; as long as the hostage exchange wasn’t completed, every day we were beaten, anyone could come and beat us.]
[When I first experienced this plot, I wasn’t sure who was the evil side. Lin Xuan was treated like royalty, while we were treated brutally.]
[Shame on the Heavenly Demon Sect for being so lenient towards the protagonist.]
[Finally, the negotiation concluded, and the hostages were exchanged. Lin Xuan remained fresh and cool, while we were beaten to a pulp.]
[Here, it’s not over yet; upon reaching Medicine King Valley, Situ Ye tries to showcase his VIP status.]
[But then Lin Xuan humiliates him.]
[The cause? It’s because whilst discussing a disease with the Valley Master, Lin Xuan spotted it.]
[Even the Valley Master was struggling with this disease, and Lin Xuan couldn’t solve it, but Elder Yan could.]
[So through Lin Xuan, Elder Yan started to communicate and discuss with the Valley Master.]
[The more they talked, the more they enjoyed each other’s company; it felt like kindred spirits meeting.]
[They soon started calling each other brother uncannily friendly.]
[Through elder Yan and the Valley Master’s discussions, Lin Xuan learned a lot and further increased his overall strength.]
[So, does Situ Ye want to show off? Lin Xuan beats him at his own game.]
[Thankfully, it’s nothing to do with me this time; my role in this plot was practically non-existent.]
[But when my strength gets buffed, that’s when the bullying begins again.]
[In the order of things, after Situ Ye, comes Xu Wuliang, followed by Liao Duci, then Cui Baiquan, Shan Gui, and me—all three new disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Sect as a package deal before Qing Bukuang who is obviously last, as he is the strongest among them.]

Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re an undying ancestor who has guarded a sacred land for countless ages? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”

At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
