Hearing Sun Zheqi's words, a flash of hatred crossed Bu Fuqi's eyes.

Back then, after being injured by Wu Xianxia, he thought that being the top Pill Master and chief healer of the academy, Jian Cangqiong would at least visit him and help him find medicine to heal his arm. However, unexpectedly, he didn't do so. Instead, Bu Fuqi received news that Jian Cangqiong went to Southern Maniac Mountain, which left Bu Fuqi feeling very uneasy.

After inquiring from various sources, he discovered that Sang Zhirou's Great Dao Foundation injury had surprisingly healed. This shocked him, and he hated Jiang Chen intensely.

Recalling Jiang Chen's confident demeanor back then, he was certain that Sang Zhirou's injury was cured by Jiang Chen.

Once this was confirmed, he blamed Jiang Chen for his severed arm. If Jiang Chen had mentioned earlier that Sang Zhirou's injury was a Great Dao Foundation injury and that he could heal it, he might not have had to endure the pain of a severed arm.

"What do you want to say?"

Bu Fuqi spoke coldly.

"Elder Bu, I also don't like Jiang Chen. This time, I came to give Elder Bu a piece of information."

Sun Zheqi chuckled softly, "Jiang Chen has currently left the academy to carry out a mission in Changyun Prefecture. If I remember correctly, Elder Bu's family is in Changyun Prefecture, right?"

"He's gone to Changyun Prefecture?!"

Bu Fuqi exclaimed, his eyes bursting with a dazzling brightness.

After confirming that Jiang Chen had healed Sang Zhirou's injury, apart from hating Jiang Chen, he also entertained other thoughts, wanting to obtain Jiang Chen's method for healing Sang Zhirou.

Once he could heal Great Dao Foundation injuries, his status would skyrocket. At that time, not only Changlin Academy, but even the Domain Lord's Mansion would look at him differently.

After all, the most serious injury for a cultivator is the Great Dao Foundation injury.

A Great Dao Foundation injury, in simple terms, is a heavy blow to the primordial Great Dao. An injury to the primordial Great Dao directly affects a cultivator's strength. Generally, when the primordial Great Dao is injured, it is equivalent to an injury to the Primordial Spirit; the strength and realm will stagnate. More severe than damage to the Primordial Spirit, a severe Great Dao Foundation injury can cause a cultivator's strength to regress and their realm to fall!

For most cultivators, especially strong ones, it is unavoidable for the primordial Great Dao to be injured during battles. Smaller injuries can be self-healed, but for larger ones, even the strong can only recover bit by bit over time. Some cannot recover at all and remain stagnant.

Up until now, there has not been a healer in the Mingqian Realm capable of repairing Great Dao Foundation injuries, and Jiang Chen is the first!

"Elder Bu, I'll take my leave!"

Seeing that his purpose had been achieved, Sun Zheqi turned and left Bu Fuqi's loft.

Bu Fuqi did not stop him, frowning as he pondered, his eyes flickering as if he was making a difficult decision.

Sun Zheqi wanted to use a borrowed knife to kill, and Bu Fuqi was well aware of this. However, he didn't mind being that knife because their goals aligned. Sun Zheqi wanted Jiang Chen's life, while he wanted the method for treating Great Dao Foundation injuries!

Gritting his teeth, Bu Fuqi's figure flashed as he left the loft, having made a decision.

A mere Divine Infant Realm Early Stage cultivator, killing him was no big deal. As long as he could master the method for healing Great Dao Foundation injuries, everything would be worth it. Even if the academy blamed him, he could always turn to the Domain Lord's Mansion.

He believed that the Domain Lord's Mansion would never turn away a healer capable of treating Great Dao Foundation injuries!

Outside Bu Fuqi's loft, Sun Zheqi hadn't gone far and was hiding in a corner.

When he saw a stream of light shoot out from Bu Fuqi's loft, Sun Zheqi's lips curled into a cold smile, "Jiang Chen, aren't you arrogant? I want to see how you escape from Elder Bu's hands!"

After a pause, Sun Zheqi lightly furrowed his brows, a trace of doubt appearing in his eyes, "Elder Bu saying that mentioning Jiang Chen is humiliating him, what does that mean?"

Thinking about it, Sun Zheqi assumed that Bu Fuqi felt humiliated due to his resentment over his severed arm, so he didn't ponder further and turned to leave the elders' residential area, leaping toward West Fury Mountain.

Changyun Prefecture.

Whoosh!

A dazzling light erupted from the eastern Teleportation Array of Changyun Prefecture, and five figures emerged from it.

"It's already late. Let's stay in Changyun Prefecture tonight, and head to Hui City tomorrow. Hui City is not far from Changyun Prefecture, but there's no Teleportation Array there, so we'll have to fly over."

Jian Wuheng spoke softly.

"Alright!"

The group nodded.

Zhang Qian took the lead, heading toward a tavern not far from the Teleportation Array.

"The best tavern in Changyun Prefecture is this Stepping on Qing Yun Tavern."

Reaching the tavern, Zhang Qian introduced, "This tavern is owned by one of the three major forces of Changyun Prefecture, the Bu Family. Elder Bu Fuqi of our academy is the second son of the Bu Family's ancestor."

"Elder Bu's family business?"

Jiang Chen lightly furrowed his brows, carefully inspecting the tavern.

The tavern had five floors, luxuriously decorated and grand in appearance. On the third floor's outer wall hung a golden signboard inscribed with the words 'Stepping on Qing Yun.'

"Yes, whenever the academy's students have business in Changyun Prefecture, they stay here. The Bu Family takes good care of our academy's students!"

Zhang Qian chuckled lightly, stepping into the tavern.

"Junior brother, should we switch to another place?"

Yun Tao approached Jiang Chen and whispered.

"No need."

Jiang Chen shook his head, "It's not necessary."

Since Jiang Chen said so, Yun Tao didn't hesitate further. The group followed Zhang Qian inside.

"They are from Changlin Academy!"

"Wow, three core students, deploying three core students at once. What are they up to?"

"Core students, how wonderful it would be if my kid could also enter Changlin Academy as a core student!"

"Stop dreaming. It's already good enough if your kid can enter Changlin Academy!"

As Jiang Chen and the others entered, the tavern patrons began to murmur in low voices.

The five of them wore the school's issued uniform, with 'Changlin Academy' embroidered on the chest.

Dressed in such attire reduced many unnecessary troubles, just like now. Due to Ouyang Ruoxue's looks, some patrons were tempted, but discovering they were academy students, they straightened out.

Yun Tao, Jian Wuheng, and Zhang Qian were already accustomed to such gazes, and Jiang Chen remained calm. Only Ouyang Ruoxue seemed somewhat displeased, frowning slightly and moving closer to Jiang Chen.

"Innkeeper, are there any guest rooms available?"

Zhang Qian, familiar with the routine, approached the counter, lightly tapping the counter surface, and asked the middle-aged man behind the counter with a smile.
