Miraculous Effects of Precious Medicine

Inside a small courtyard in Yicheng, Gu Sheng returned with a large package. He moved very quietly, not disturbing the neighbors who were already asleep.

Gu Sheng went back to his small room, changed into clean clothes, and placed the package on the stone table in the small courtyard. Then, he began practicing the Tiger Form Fist in the courtyard to absorb the remaining medicinal power.

"Creak~"

The courtyard door was pushed open, and Teng Qingshan walked into the small courtyard carrying a large 'package'.

"You're here!"

Gu Sheng smiled and nodded at him, then walked over to release this time's 'hostage'.

Chu Xin (Li Qingyu) glared at Gu Sheng hatefully, her silver teeth clenched as she wanted to take a bite out of him. She had recognized Gu Sheng and Teng Qingshan; weren't they two of the mountain people she had spoken up for during the day?

How dare they! These ungrateful bastards not only killed Qin San, but also kidnapped her here. It was too much. Chu Xin's angry appearance was very cute, and Gu Sheng's heart itched to tease her again.

Gu Sheng pulled the unrestrained but unable-to-speak Chu Xin to his side, suppressed the little beauty's resistance, and then said to Teng Qingshan with a smile, "Qingshan! Take a look at those things on the table and see which ones you need!"

Teng Qingshan glanced at them and shook his head, "No, I'm still young, and my body hasn't fully developed. Using medicine rashly might affect my future growth. You should use these medicinal materials, Cousin!"

"Is that so!"

Gu Sheng nodded and didn't say much else. Since Teng Qingshan said so, he wouldn't be polite about these things. After all, they were very helpful for him to increase his strength.

"Cousin!"

Teng Qingshan advised, "Some things, it's better not to overdo... otherwise, we'll be no different from those bandits." As he spoke, he looked at Chu Xin in Gu Sheng's arms, implying that he had misunderstood Gu Sheng's intentions towards her.

"What are you thinking!"

Gu Sheng smiled and patted Chu Xin's shoulder, "Your cousin isn't so indiscriminate that he'd resort to this. If I wanted a woman, there are plenty in the brothels. Speaking of which, Qingshan, we got so many benefits this time, how about your cousin takes you to broaden your horizons..."

Gu Sheng spoke with great enthusiasm, like a pimp, even making the usually calm Teng Qingshan feel very embarrassed. After replying, he went straight back to his room.

"Boring!"

As soon as Teng Qingshan left, Gu Sheng stopped talking. He had actually seen that Teng Qingshan wanted to persuade him to give up the Inner Force manual and focus on cultivating Internal Fist, so he changed the subject.

In the long run, Teng Qingshan's suggestion wasn't wrong, but where was Gu Sheng? The Lord God Space! Instead of slowly cultivating to the realm of an Internal Fist grandmaster, he would have risen up long ago.

Besides, cultivating the Inner Force manual didn't mean he had given up on Internal Fist. In fact, with his theoretical understanding of Internal Fist reaching the point of returning to simplicity, cultivating the Inner Force manual might have a complementary effect.

But before it was truly verified, he wasn't confident in convincing Teng Qingshan.

"Alright, little darling, the night is long, we should go back to our room to rest."

Gu Sheng carried the package, and under Chu Xin's murderous gaze, he reached out and gently pinched her delicate nose, then pulled the young miss back to his room with a playful smile.

"Don't come over here!"

After Gu Sheng threw Chu Xin onto the bed, she realized that she had completely recovered. So she very cooperatively screamed and shrank into the corner of the bed.

"Hey! Scream! Scream until your throat is hoarse..."

Gu Sheng's mischievousness flared up, and he squeezed Chu Xin into a corner where she couldn't escape.

"Wuwu... Help! Help..."

Chu Xin was frightened, covering her chest with her hands, her small face tearful, "Don't do this, even if you get my body, you can forget about getting my heart."

"Why would I want your heart! Enjoying your body is enough!"

Gu Sheng lightly lifted the little beauty's chin, revealing a teasing smile as he opened his mouth as if to kiss her.

Chu Xin was so frightened by Gu Sheng's hateful words that she closed her eyes, but after a while, she felt something was strange. The beast hadn't moved. She carefully opened her eyes and met a pair of smiling eyes.

"Know you were wrong now! How dare you set me up just now."

Gu Sheng extended a finger and tapped Chu Xin's fair and smooth forehead.

"You~"

Chu Xin felt speechless, a complex mix of anger and amusement. What kind of person was this guy? So petty that he had remembered the time she told Cuier to trick him. Yet, he seemed like a 'good person', disrespectful to her but not doing anything excessive.

"You sleep here tonight, it's getting late, go to sleep early!"

Gu Sheng smiled and left the bedside, walked to the table, took out five jade boxes, arranged them, and opened them. Then, under Chu Xin's surprised gaze, he grabbed a small arm-sized Golden Ginseng and put it to his mouth.

"Glug!"

Gu Sheng opened his mouth wide, his throat wriggled, and he swallowed the entire Golden Ginseng.

"Hey! Are you courting death!"

Chu Xin was stunned by his actions. The reason she didn't go for the medicinal materials in her cheap old man's medicine storehouse was because her small body couldn't handle the majestic medicinal power!

She had figured out Gu Sheng's strength, which was similar to her Third-Rate martial artist level. Doing this could easily cause the medicinal power to surge through his body and overwhelm him.

Gu Sheng didn't answer Chu Xin, and immediately adopted a stance and began practicing the Tiger Form Fist. The medicinal power of a Golden Ginseng was extremely fierce. Even with the Tiger Form Fist helping him absorb it, he almost couldn't handle it.

"Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff~~~"

Gu Sheng's breathing became rapid, panting like a cow, sweating profusely, his entire body red, even his eyeballs were a little red, scaring Chu Xin, who was already a little afraid of him, into shrinking back.

She didn't trust Gu Sheng, this ungrateful 'Byakugan wolf', and was afraid that he would really get too hot-blooded and take advantage of her.

After a long time, Gu Sheng slowly let out a breath, and he looked a bit more normal.

"A Golden Ginseng has increased my strength by over a hundred pounds, allowing me to enter the level of a thousand pounds of strength. Moreover, I feel like I haven't fully absorbed its medicinal power..."

Gu Sheng loosened his muscles and felt refreshed. He glanced at Chu Xin, who was pretending to be asleep, smiled, shook his head, and walked out of the room. After washing his face with a basin of cold water, the horizon was already tinged with gray.

He shook his slightly dizzy head and returned to his room, going straight to bed to share it with Chu Xin.

"We're people of the Jianghu! We don't stand on ceremony!"

That was the excuse he gave himself. As for what he truly thought, only he himself probably knew.

"Big pervert!"

Chu Xin opened her eyes and looked at Gu Sheng. After finding that he wasn't making any other moves, she felt a little relieved. After cursing Gu Sheng inwardly, she tightened the clothes on her body, carefully squeezed to the other side of the bed, and reluctantly fell asleep with caution and vigilance.
