Jiang Kuai got off the boat. He did not ride a horse but used his Light-body Technique to gallop away.
He knew that the situation was urgent and his life was at stake. He did not stop for a moment and used all his strength to perform his Light-body Technique. If his inner energy was not enough, he would use the Pill of Vitality. In one breath, he reached the Town of Clouds and arrived at Liu's house.
Even though Liu had given a lot of money to her family, her parents did not touch a single penny. They saved it all and still lived in the original house.
It was the most ordinary courtyard in the town, shabby and narrow.
The small courtyard was empty and flat. A weapon rack was placed at the side, turning it into a small training field.
At this time, the house was gloomy. An old man was sitting on the doorstep of the main house, smoking with his head down. Puffs of thick smoke came out of his mouth. His frowning face was faintly discernible, his wrinkles all squeezed together.
There was a low choking sound coming from the house, intermittent.
Jiang Kuai floated into the small courtyard like a leaf. The old man was still smoking with his head down and did not notice him.
Jiang Kuai coughed softly. "Is this Old Sun's house?"
The old man quickly looked up and saw Jiang Kuai. He suddenly showed a vigilant look and stood up. "Who are you?"
Jiang Kuai gave a fist salute. "I am Jiang Kuai. Miss Liu asked me to come and visit her brother."
"Liu?" The old man frowned and his face turned gloomy. "I don't know who Liu is. Leave!"
Jiang Kuai said, "Miss Liu knows that her brother is seriously injured, so she asked me to send the spirit medicine."
"The spirit medicine is useless!" The old man's face relaxed and he shook his head.
Jiang Kuai smiled. "It seems that your son is not dead yet."
The old man's face turned gloomy again. He stared at Jiang Kuai fiercely and sighed. "Soon!"
Jiang Kuai said, "As long as he is not dead, the spirit medicine can save him. To save him or not to save him, please decide quickly. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid your son will really die!"
"You … You can really save him?"
"How would I know if I don't try?"
"… Alright, come in, come in." Old Sun quickly invited him into the house.
Although the little girl had ruined the family's reputation and brought misfortune to the family, the people she interacted with were all noble people. Maybe there really was a spirit medicine that could save his son.
Jiang Kuai entered the dark house.
A handsome young man was lying on the bed in the bedroom. His face was flushed as if he was drunk, and he had already passed out. His breathing was rapid and intermittent, as if it would stop at any moment.
Sitting next to him was an old woman, holding the young man's right hand tightly. Her eyes were already red and swollen like a peach, and she was still choking intermittently.
Jiang Kuai took out a white jade bottle from his bosom and carefully poured out a Spirit Blessing Pill. After stuffing it into the young man's mouth, he helped him up and sat cross-legged behind him. His vigorous inner energy was slowly injected into the young man's body, helping the pill to dissolve.
The old couple widened their eyes, not daring to make a sound.
"Sigh …" The handsome youth suddenly let out a long sigh, and the redness on his face quickly faded away. His complexion became pale, and his breathing became steady and powerful.
Even if the old couple didn't have any medical skills, they could tell that their son was much better just by looking at him. They immediately looked happy.
Jiang Kuai continuously channeled inner energy into his palms to speed up the recovery of his injuries.
After a while, white mist appeared on top of Jiang Kuai and the young man's head. The mist was as thin as silk, like it was caused by burning a few sticks of incense.
As time passed, the silk-like mist became denser, and white steam surged like steamed buns.
The old couple felt that a long time had passed, and they stared at the two of them.
The steaming mist rolled more and more violently. Suddenly, the white mist converged and went into the top of their heads.
Jiang Kuai opened his eyes. His gaze was like lightning, and it lit up the room.
The handsome youth also slowly opened his eyes.
Jiang Kuai released his palms and floated down to the ground. He smiled and said, "You should be fine now."
The handsome youth turned to look at him and hesitated. "Brother, you are …?"
"I'm Jiang Kuai. Your sister asked me to come and save you." Jiang Kuai smiled.
The handsome youth quickly gave a fist salute. "I'm Ping. Thank you, Brother Jiang, for saving my life!"
Jiang Kuai waved his hand. "No need to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank your sister. … How are you now?"
Ping waved his fist excitedly and smiled. "I'm better than before! … Father, mother, I'm unfilial. I've made you worry! "
He vaguely heard his mother crying. He felt extremely uncomfortable and guilty.
The old couple was beaming with joy. They were so excited that they didn't know what to do. They wanted to kneel down in front of Jiang Kuai.
Jiang Kuai said, "Brother Ping, who hurt you? The palm energy was so powerful! "
If he did not have the Spirit Blessing Pill, he might not have been able to suppress the strange palm energy.
"Hmph, Startling Cloud Association!" Ping gritted his teeth. "I must avenge this!"
"Startling Cloud Association?" Jiang Kuai was stunned.
"Brother Jiang, you know about the Startling Cloud Association?" Ping scoffed. "Their reputation has spread to Chong Ming Town?"
"That's really like a flood against the temple of the Dragon King. We don't know each other anymore." Jiang Kuai smiled bitterly. "Let's put the revenge aside … Elder Sun, in my opinion, we should go to Chong Ming Town. People from the martial arts world are not allowed to fight in the town. It's the safest place to go."
Elder Sun's face darkened. He remained silent.
If it was before, he would have rejected without hesitation. He did not want to see that stupid girl who ruined the family. He did not want to live in the same town as her!
His son had narrowly escaped death this time, but he hesitated.
The Startling Cloud Association was the number one association in Cloud Town. They had many masters and could cover the sky with one hand. Going against the Startling Cloud Association was equivalent to seeking death. However, this kid was stubborn and stubborn. If he could not be persuaded, he would definitely cause trouble.
Ping suddenly shouted excitedly, "Dad, Mom, let's listen to Brother Jiang. Let's go to Chong Ming Town and join sister's side."
"Shut up!" Elder Sun glared at him.
Ping shrunk his neck and shut his mouth.
Jiang Kuai said, "Elder Sun, actually, if you go to Chong Ming Town, there's a benefit. Miss Liu can leave the New Moon Brothel."
"How could she bear to leave?" Elder Sun said hatefully, "If she really listened to me, she would have come back a long time ago!"
Jiang Kuai smiled. "Both of you go there personally. You go to her place every day to cause trouble. How is that the same as writing a letter and scolding her?"
"That's right!" Ping quickly said.
He had been longing to go to Chong Ming Town for a long time. Unfortunately, his parents were still alive and he could not leave. Now that he had the opportunity to go to Chong Ming Town, he would not let it go. It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. He would come back for revenge in the future.
He quickly said, "Dad, think about it. If you say in the letter that you want to die, sister will not be at ease. But if you want to commit suicide in front of sister, how could she not be concerned?"
"That's right. Dad, let's force her!" Mother Sun advised.
She looked at Ping. If they stayed here, her son would definitely want to take revenge. Next time, he would not be so lucky. If he really died, there would be no one to send them off. How could they continue living!
"… Okay, let's go to Chong Ming Town!" Elder Sun slammed the table angrily. "I'll give up my dignity and force this girl to turn over a new leaf!"
Jiang Kuai smiled. "If that's the case, then let's depart today. The earlier we get there, the less worried Miss Liu will be."
"This …" Elder Sun hesitated. "We have to pack up our belongings."
Jiang Kuai waved his hand and smiled. "You'll have everything when you get there. Moreover, leaving the belongings here is also a way out. If you don't feel comfortable living there, you can come back anytime. There's no need to waste any effort."
"That's right!" Ping was afraid that a long delay would bring trouble. He quickly smiled. "With the silver, there's nothing that Chong Ming Town doesn't have. Moreover, we're going to sister's house. Why do we need these things? They'll only be a hindrance!"
"Then it's settled. I'll go get the carriage immediately." Jiang Kuai smiled.
This was also Xue's idea. As for why Xue did this, he would not ask.
