Gently wiping the cold sweat from his aged face, Changsun Yu bowed his head respectfully, then gave a wink to the old guys in the Alchemist Guild, including Brandy.
"We'll take our leave." Brandy and the others were all shrewd old foxes, and they immediately bowed and retreated.
"Little brother, come here for a second."
With a slight turn of his gaze, Zhang Yun's coldness vanished, replaced by a warm, gentle smile as gentle as sunshine.
"Uncle Divine Messenger, thank you for avenging my mother today. Those villains deserve to die."
The little boy was clever and quick-witted, possessed an innate resilience, and seemed to have a good talent for martial arts.
If he were in the Cloud Heaven Continent, he would definitely be a little genius in martial arts, which made Zhang Yun like him more and more.
However, at this moment, two black lines appeared on Zhang Yun's head.
"Do I look old? You should call me brother, little brother."
"Young man, young man, you rid the people of evil! You are the most powerful and kindest person Gu Heng has ever met!"
"But Gu Heng has lost his father, and now he has lost his mother. From now on, Gu Heng will be all alone."
Gu Heng looked at Zhang Yun with admiration, but then his expression turned somber.
The sorrowful words, spoken by a little boy, were even more poignant, stirring a sense of pity in Zhang Yun.
"Little Hengheng, do you want to become stronger? Do you want to never be bullied by bad people again, and even be able to teach the bad guys a lesson yourself?"
Zhang Yun smiled at Xiao Guheng, thinking about the cultivation system of the Medicine God Realm, and then about how Yao Bucai's surname was Yao and the little boy's surname was Gu, which was quite interesting.
"So, can Gu Heng follow his older brother and conquer all in the future?"
Gu Heng's big, bright eyes immediately showed a hint of anticipation.
"sure."
Zhang Yun laughed loudly, then turned to look at Yao Bucai, who was still standing in the same spot, not daring to move, and said, "Bucai, come here for a moment too."
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
Yao Bucai, who had thought he had been forgotten, suddenly had a glint in his eyes and came running over excitedly.
"Thank you so much, Divine Envoy, for saving my life today. From now on, I will face any danger, whether it be climbing mountains of knives or plunging into seas of fire..."
"Alright, alright, stop being so cheeky. Just call me Big Brother like before," Zhang Yun waved his hand dismissively.
"Big brother? You really are my big brother!"
Yao Bucai's eyes were instantly filled with ecstatic joy. He was riding high on his success. His status as the messenger's underling made him incredibly proud, and he felt like he had suddenly reached the pinnacle of life.
"It's not impossible for the two of you to become as good as me."
Zhang Yun said solemnly, "However, the Heavenly God doesn't accept people casually. Besides having absolute talent, one must become his servant."
"As long as it makes me stronger, Gu Heng will listen to you, little brother!"
Gu Heng, being childlike at heart, didn't care about anything else and agreed without hesitation. Having experienced joys and sorrows, life and death, he had only the belief in becoming stronger in his heart.
“A servant is a servant, even a servant of the gods is not someone you can offend.”
After thinking about it briefly, Yao Bucai agreed.
Today's events made him realize that without a powerful backer, he would face great difficulties in the world of sacred medicine, and as today, his life or death could be decided by a single word from someone else.
This feeling is something you only need to experience once in your life.
------------
Chapter 13 went all out.
Changsun Yu's positive reaction to Zhang Yun at least proves that he's not completely stupid.
However, a cold glint still flashed in Zhang Yun's eyes.
He even decisively killed his own descendants; he was indeed a ruthless person.
The Changsun family's disregard for life and their tendency to kill at will were not without origin.
"I, the divine messenger, can spare you, but from now on, your Changsun family must behave themselves."
Zhang Yun said calmly, "Since the divine power displayed has achieved the expected effect, there is no need for Zhang Yun to continue to entangle himself with it."
"Yes, Your Excellency, I will obey your command!"
With a huge weight lifted from his heart, Changsun Yu almost collapsed to the ground, kowtowing repeatedly in gratitude.
"Since you are here, Your Excellency, why not stay for a simple meal?"
Changsun Yu asked cautiously, as if walking on thin ice, fearing that a single mistake might offend the divine envoy.
"Hmm." Zhang Yun nodded slightly, not refusing, and left it to see if Changsun Yu knew how to handle the situation.
"Alright, alright, alright, I'll go prepare right away and make sure the Divine Envoy is satisfied."
Gently wiping the cold sweat from his aged face, Changsun Yu bowed his head respectfully, then gave a wink to the old guys in the Alchemist Guild, including Brandy.
"We'll take our leave." Brandy and the others were all shrewd old foxes, and they immediately bowed and retreated.
"Little brother, come here for a second."
