Immortals Step into Heaven

Suddenly he found out that these three people were second-rate masters. Zheng Yuan was repelled by them, and his sword was cut off during the battle with them. The quality of this sword was too poor.

Zheng Yuan had no other choice but to take out the broken sword from his storage bag, using it as a knife instead of a scimitar. He used the Tiger Fierce Sword Technique and attacked the three men again. After a few moves, one of them, along with the sword, was split in half by Zheng Yuan.

Xiao Hei also waited for his chance to strike. With a flick of his claws, a flash of black light killed one person. Another person was quickly defeated by Zheng Yuan and Xiao Hei and was killed by Zheng Yuan.

Zheng Yuan saw Xiao Hei open his mouth and suck the souls of the three people who had been killed. Xiao Hei then sucked their souls into his stomach. Xiao Hei burped at Zheng Yuan, then jumped into his arms and rubbed his head against him.

Although Zheng Yuan was surprised, he said nothing. He searched the three people's belongings, put them into his storage bag, and then fled into the night with Xiao Hei.

After running for dozens of miles, he saw a woman lying on the ground. Zheng Yuan went forward and saw that this was the masked woman in the convoy.

Zheng Yuan saw that she was still breathing and knew that she was still alive. Zheng Yuan sighed, then carried the masked woman on his back and ran away. He didn't know how long he ran!

The sky was gradually getting brighter, and Zheng Yuan saw a city in the distance. Zheng Yuan was also a little hesitant. This woman had just left Yucheng and so many people were chasing her. She was most likely a disaster.

Zheng Yuan took out the things he had looted last night from his storage bag. There were more than four hundred taels of silver notes and a book on the Cloud Chasing Step's secret technique.

No wonder three second-rate masters were able to follow Zheng Yuan so closely. It turned out they had this secret manual. Zheng Yuan, overjoyed, carried the masked woman on his back. Arriving at the woods on the official road, Zheng Yuan observed the path.

Not long after, I saw a horse-drawn carriage pulling fodder. The driver should be the one who delivered horse fodder to the rich people in the city.

Zheng Yuan smiled faintly as he walked out of the woods and approached the groom who was pulling the fodder. He immediately took out ten taels of silver and said, "Brother, can you sell me your carriage and horse?" Zheng Yuan said to the groom with a smile.

The groom looked at Zheng Yuan as if he was a fool and said slowly, "Little brother, this horse of mine is worth ten taels of silver. Are you kidding me?"

Zheng Yuan was a little embarrassed! He took out another thirty taels of silver from his pocket and said to the coachman, "Brother, do you think these 40 taels of silver can buy your carriage and fodder?"

The coachman was delighted to see so much silver and said, "Brother, are you really going to spend 40 taels of silver to buy my carriage and fodder?"

Yes, I am willing to buy it, Zheng Yuan answered affirmatively.

Seeing that Zheng Yuan was not lying, the coachman happily took the silver and said with a smile, "Little brother, this carriage is yours now."

After Zheng Yuan finished his business with the coachman, he watched him completely disappear from his sight. Seeing that no one was around, he hid the veiled woman in the woods in the hay behind the carriage.

He drove his carriage towards the city. When he arrived at the city gate, he saw the two big words "Hongcheng" written on the gate.

When he encountered soldiers and officers who were about to search the carriage, Zheng Yuan smiled and gave ten taels of silver notes to the soldiers guarding the gate.

The eldest brother bought some tea for his brothers. The officers and soldiers looked at the banknotes and said happily, "You are a sensible boy. Go ahead."

After walking into the city smoothly, Zheng Yuan asked someone for directions to a clinic. Not long after, he arrived at a clinic, but the clinic was not open yet.

Maybe it's too early and the doctor hasn't gotten up yet. Zheng Yuan didn't care and knocked on his door. After knocking for a while, he heard a voice from inside the clinic. Who is knocking on the door so early?

Doctor, my friend is injured and needs treatment. The doctor opened the door of the clinic. He was a scholar-looking doctor, probably in his forties.

Zheng Yuan carried the masked woman in the carriage into the clinic. The doctor looked at the masked woman's injuries and said, "The woman's injuries are too serious. I can't treat her. Please find someone else."

Hearing this, Zheng Yuan didn't say much. He just took out a hundred taels of silver from his sleeve and put it on the table.

The doctor hesitated when he saw the 100-liang silver note. Zheng Yuan took out another 100-liang silver note from his sleeve and placed it on the table, saying, "Thank you for the trouble, doctor. I'll do my best."

By the way, help me hide the carriage at the door. The doctor, with a happy look on his face, asked his wife to hide the carriage.

When no one was paying attention, Zheng Yuan took out the old ginseng from his storage bag and handed it to the doctor. The doctor was overjoyed when he saw it. This old ginseng is nearly a thousand years old! This girl's life is saved!

You're truly deeply in love! Zheng Yuan was puzzled upon hearing this. But he still said to the doctor, "Please give me your best treatment. I'm deeply grateful!"

Because the masked woman's injuries were too serious, treatment would take a long time.

Zheng Yuan also stayed in this clinic for more than half a month. During this period, Zheng Yuan had been practicing the Cloud Chasing Step diligently and had become quite good at it.

The Cloud Chasing Step is also a top-level body movement secret book. Not only are the steps strange and mysterious, but when practiced to the highest level, one can also walk in the air for a short period of time.

With this strange step, coupled with the Tiger Fierce Sword Technique, Zheng Yuan's strength was further enhanced.

Zheng Yuan was just about to open the door to take Xiao Hei out for a bite to eat when someone outside heard him. Doctor Wang called out with a delighted look on his face, "Brother Zheng, your wife's awake."

Zheng Yuan opened the door and said, Doctor Wang is just my friend, not my wife.

Doctor Wang didn't believe it and said, "It's not that my lady can spend so much money without blinking an eye. She even took out ginseng that is nearly a thousand years old."

After hearing what Doctor Wang said, Zheng Yuan did not explain to Doctor Wang, otherwise he would have to tell him about this old ginseng. Isn't this money nothing to Zheng Yuan?

This is totally out of character for Zheng Yuan, who follows Doctor Wang to the masked woman's room.

Doctor Wang looked at Zheng Yuan and the masked woman, then tactfully took his wife, closed the door, and left.

Zheng Yuan looked at the woman lying on the bed with her eyes open and chuckled, "Is your injury feeling better?"

I didn't expect that it was Master Zheng who saved me. My name is Li Xiuyun, you can just call me Xiuyun. I heard from Madam Wang about how you saved me. Xiuyun will definitely repay you.

After hearing this, Zheng Yuan smiled and said, "Miss Xiuyun, how do you plan to repay me?"

If the young master is willing to send Xiuyun to Yunzhou City, Xiuyun will give it to him no matter how much money he asks for.

Zheng Yuan thought to himself, "What use is money to me? No matter how much money I have, it's useless."

Miss Xiuyun, could you tell me why you are being hunted by so many people?

Since the young master was willing to listen, Xiuyun told him.

Xiuyun was originally the daughter of the head of the Li family in Yucheng. Because of Yucheng, the city lord was attracted by Xiuyun's beauty and wanted to take her as his concubine, but Xiuyun was unwilling.

They teamed up with the Wang family to oppress our Li family. The two families joined forces and they even killed my father and mother!

Our Li family was also divided, and it was difficult for us to survive in Yucheng. My grandfather wanted to take us away from Yucheng.
