There's a BUG! A Socially Fatal Healing Soul Bone Skill!
After lunch.
Zhao Wuji could barely get back on his feet. Limping along, he led the group toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
He was met with Dai Mubai and Oscar's exaggerated stares.
How many times did Teacher Zhao go at it last night to end up this weak?
Zhao Wuji had no way to defend himself.
He couldn't exactly say that after experiencing Childbirth, he'd accidentally had diarrhea again, aggravating his recurring hemorrhoids, could he?
He didn't have the face to say it!
But come to think of it...
How had his hemorrhoids relapsed again?
After walking more than ten kilometers.
Zhao Wuji still hadn't remembered that Zhuge Lan was the culprit.
Until Zhuge Lan felt it was safe enough.
He pulled out a robe and put it on, canceling the Soul Bone Skill - Close In Distance, Far In Horizon.
In an instant.
Everyone's gaze focused on Zhuge Lan at the rear of the group.

"It was you, brat!" Zhao Wuji slapped his forehead. "No, wait! When did you join the group? How did I not notice?"
With a flash, Zhu Zhuqing appeared beside Zhuge Lan and tightly hugged his arm.
There was a trace of panic on her normally cool face.
She had actually ignored Zhuge Lan for so long?
That shouldn't have been possible!
Only Tang San, who had lived two lives, sensed that something was off.
"Was it some special soul skill?" Tang San guessed. "Otherwise, it's impossible that all of us would collectively forget you. Or rather, overlook you."
Zhuge Lan gave him a thumbs-up.
Tang San might not be much of a person, but his brain worked well enough.
"That's right, it's a special Soul Bone Skill." Zhuge Lan admitted, "You all saw what happened last night. It caused too much of a commotion, so I hid for a while."

Well, damn!
So it really had been you who caused all that commotion!
"It really was you!!!" Zhao Wuji gritted his teeth. "I heard that ninety percent of the people in the entire town were affected. How did you do it?!"
Zhuge Lan chuckled.
He shifted the blame. "Like that soul ring, it was left behind by my ancestors. I don't know the exact age, but it's definitely no less than a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."
A Soul Bone Skill from a Soul Bone at least a hundred thousand years old?
That made sense.
But...

Even Zhao Wuji was green with envy!
What kind of great family was this, to have so many good things?
"You could at least have warned me." Ma Hongjun complained resentfully. "My calves are still weak even now."
Zhuge Lan laughed, not even bothering to answer.
Emotional Value +4444
Ma Hongjun's face fell. That was too much!
He was the victim here!
Even if Zhuge Lan had warned them at the time, he hadn't said the consequences would be this serious!
If he'd explained it earlier, would Ma Hongjun not have listened?
"Fatty!" Ning Rongrong spoke up for justice. "Zhuge warned us last night not to go out. You were the one who got blinded by lust and insisted on going out to throw your life away!"
Emotional Value +5555
Knowing he was in the wrong, Ma Hongjun fell silent.
"Actually, I have another Soul Bone." Zhuge Lan said leisurely. "Its Soul Bone Skill is for healing. It should be able to ease your condition. Want to give it a try?"

Everyone grimaced.
Not even Zhao Wuji, a Soul Saint, had a single Soul Bone.
Yet this guy already had three?
And there might even be more!
Was he flaunting his wealth?
"Zhuge."
Zhao Wuji spoke earnestly—
"Sometimes, you shouldn't be too flashy. It can easily bring disaster upon you."
"Countless groups have become mortal enemies because a Soul Bone dropped while hunting Soul Beasts."
"Before you're strong enough, you need to keep a low profile."
Zhao Wuji meant well, so naturally Zhuge Lan didn't argue.
He nodded. "I understand. Isn't it because I trust all of you?"

With one sentence, he harvested over ten thousand Emotional Value.
Along with everyone's moved gazes.
"As long as you understand." Zhao Wuji didn't beat around the bush. "This healing Soul Bone Skill of yours... the Soul Bone wasn't passed down by your ancestors too, was it?"
Once bitten by a snake, one feared ropes for ten years.
He was scared now.
"No, not this one." Zhuge Lan sighed. "This one is only fifty thousand years old. When I was playing in the family treasury as a child, I accidentally absorbed it."
Emotional Value +4444
Emotional Value +3333
Emotional Value +5555
Did he even hear what he was saying?
A fifty-thousand-year Soul Bone, and he was acting like it was beneath him?
He really shouldn't show off so much!
Zhao Wuji was speechless too.
He shouldn't have asked.
"Then—"
"Quick, heal me!" Ma Hongjun rushed over eagerly. "My legs are so weak, I can barely walk anymore!"
Zhao Wuji frowned slightly.
But he didn't compete with his student.
Zhuge Lan didn't refuse either—he had a feeling this Soul Bone Skill - Holy Light Blessing had a catch too!
He just didn't know what kind of trap the system had set.
Since Ma Hongjun was volunteering himself, he might as well use him to test it!
"Are you ready?"
"Mm."
"The rest of you should probably stay away from him?"
Everyone: "!!!"
They instantly sprang away.
Ma Hongjun: Σ(っQДQ;)っ
Wait!
Why did they need to stay away from him?
Was this Soul Bone Skill really okay?
Maybe Teacher Zhao should—
But before he could speak.
A pure white glow lit up in Zhuge Lan's left hand, condensing into a holy, radiant white left-arm Soul Bone.
He activated the Soul Bone Skill.
Zhuge Lan involuntarily said—
"I bless you!"
With a wave of his hand, he scattered a ray of holy light that entered Ma Hongjun's body.
Visible to the naked eye.
The pallor on Ma Hongjun's face faded, replaced by a healthy flush.
Even the dark circles from staying up all night disappeared.
Looking at it...
It really did seem like legitimate healing, and incredibly powerful healing at that?
Zhao Wuji relaxed a little and opened his mouth.
"Ah—"
"Oh—"
Ma Hongjun let out a long moan. A blissful expression appeared on his face as he unconsciously tilted his head back and shuddered.
Dai Mubai's eyebrow twitched wildly at the sight!
Because he wore that exact same expression every time he surrendered.
Everyone silently stared at Zhuge Lan.
(●-●)●)●)
And you said this was legitimate healing?

"Pfft—"
Zhuge Lan couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
It could heal, sure, but it was fucking Poison Milk!
While restoring vitality, it pushed the body to its physiological peak?
The system really knew how to play.
Amid the awkwardness.
Ma Hongjun came back to his senses as well, realizing what he had just done.
Emotional Value +11111
His mentality instantly collapsed!
He glared at Zhuge Lan with aggrieved eyes, then turned and sprinted away.
I have no face to stay here!
"Hey! Don't run around! We're getting close to the Star Dou Great Forest!" Zhao Wuji shouted. "Zhuge, hurry up and lead them after him!"
Zhuge Lan shrugged and waved for everyone to give chase.
Thinking about Ma Hongjun's earlier reaction, he fell into thought.
Before transmigrating, whenever he did that, his mind would go blank during those few seconds of release.
Even if he'd promised to spill outside, he wouldn't remember it.
There was simply no time to pull out, okay!
Wait!
Zhuge Lan's eyes widened!
He had discovered the true use of this Holy Light Blessing!
That was—
