The entire Medicine Master Valley being found dead in the woods near Dan Sect quickly spread throughout the cultivation world.
Originally, these two sects were rivals. Under normal circumstances, it would have been quite normal for Dan Sect to annihilate everyone in Medicine Master Valley.
So, the moment they received this news, some sects that had long been brewing undercurrents and wanted to annex Dan Sect began to stir. They all wanted to seize this opportunity, using the banner of Dan Sect resorting to any means for sect prosperity to eliminate this sect they had coveted for a long time.
However, when they arrived at the scene and saw the situation, all their prepared speeches and conquest plans instantly fell through in the face of reality.
It was not for any other reason, but because the deaths of everyone in Medicine Master Valley were caused by Medicine Master Valley's own cultivation techniques. Those techniques were so pure, without any other influence, that unless it was performed by a genuine Medicine Master Valley disciple, others could not even fake it.
This blame could not be pinned on Dan Sect no matter what.
The various sects were greatly disappointed.
They actually didn't care at all why the high-ranking officials of Medicine Master Valley were wiped out. They just wanted to take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits. Since they couldn't, they could only withdraw.
While the various sects were surveying the scene, Liu Buli stood by, yawning and watching. Only when everyone left dejectedly did he let out a scoff, shake his head, and say, "This cultivation world is truly far more chaotic than I imagined."
You Siqi, hiding to the side, was a modern person who enjoyed literature and art. He couldn't bear to look at the bloody mountains of corpses. Hearing Liu Buli's words, he curled his lips and said, "This is the era it is. Everyone's cultivation isn't exceptionally strong, and the sects aren't particularly large. Most are just a mob, existing like hyenas and crows. Do you still want to ascend to a high platform and sort them out?"
"Not interested, nor do I want to bother. If you ask me, this situation is quite good. It saves me from anyone bothering me," Liu Buli shook his head, smiled, and turned to leave. He walked to Shen Muzhi's side and said, "Physician Shen, all problems have been resolved. Don't forget our agreement?"
Shen Muzhi nodded, "I will not forget. Daoist Liu, please rest assured."
Liu Buli yawned and slowly headed back in the direction of Dan Sect.
Lu Wuming followed closely beside him.
Glancing back at Shen Muzhi and You Siqi, who were still standing in place, Lu Wuming spoke for the first time, proactively asking about others. He said, "Master, they are not returning to Dan Sect?"
"Naturally, they are not," Liu Buli shook his head. He said, "Medicine Master Valley is now a scattered mess. Without someone to hold it together, they will quickly fall apart. Shen Muzhi is, after all, a pillar of Medicine Master Valley. Now that he is returning, no one will care what he did before. They will hail him as the new Valley Master to protect their own positions."
He paused here and then smiled at Lu Wuming, "What's wrong, Wuming? Have you developed some feelings for them these past few days, and now you're reluctant to part?"
"How is that possible?" Lu Wuming shook his head and said, "I was just thinking, now that those two annoying fellows are finally leaving, does that mean Master won't have to occasionally check on them anymore and can stay by Wuming's side all the time?"
Liu Buli's mouth twitched. He turned and hit Lu Wuming. Blushing, he said in embarrassment and anger, "Wuming, why are you becoming more possessive? This is not good. Even between dao companions, there needs to be some space. So..."
"No," Lu Wuming refused decisively, "Because this is what Master likes, so Wuming must continue to do so. Not only that, Wuming will become even more fervent in the future. Because Master is not only a dao companion but also my Master. Combining these two, there is no need for space. Wuming is right, aren't I?"
Right, my ass!
Liu Buli roared in his heart!
Ever since this brat learned to speak, he had become more glib and eloquent day by day, spewing out one set of arguments after another, leaving him no room to retort!
Giving Lu Wuming a fierce glare, Liu Buli quickened his pace.
He fled back to his courtyard as if escaping, but upon entering, he was embraced by Lu Wuming, who had followed him.
The door closed behind them. Lu Wuming chuckled and said, "Master, Wuming hasn't slept for days and is extremely tired. I'm still growing, and if I don't get enough sleep, I won't grow tall. These are Master's exact words. Does Master have the heart to see me not grow tall?"
Naturally, I don't have the heart.
Liu Buli gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't I tell you to sleep in the side room?"
"But I can't sleep when Master isn't by my side," Lu Wuming nuzzled Liu Buli's cheek and said, "Let me sleep in my room tonight, okay, Master?"
