Chapter 531: Chapter 533: Enhance Martial Arts

Chu Ge cast a faint glance at her, dropped a sentence, and turned to leave.

When he reached the door, it seemed that Chu Ge thought of something, halted his steps, and said without turning back, "Next time you want to test me, remember to hide your people well."

After speaking, Chu Ge opened the door and left the room.

Hua Liuyue slowly sat down, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed together, she gazed in the direction Chu Ge had left, wondering what was on her mind.

Not long after Chu Ge left, the door of another private room was opened, and Elder Hei from the Black Witch Sect came out from inside. He glanced in the direction Chu Ge had left, then entered Hua Liuyue’s room.

"How did it go?" Elder Hei sat down opposite her.

Hua Liuyue shook her head. "I’ve said before that this wouldn’t work. Chu Ge values martial arts above all else. How could he possibly agree to exchange the secret manual for the Jade Pendant?"

Elder Hei huffed lightly, "I didn’t really expect you to succeed. That Jade Pendant is no longer of any use to Chu Ge, of course he wouldn’t exchange it."

Hua Liuyue looked at him with a puzzled expression, "What do you mean?"

"It means Chu Ge has already broken through to become an Innate Grandmaster. That Jade Pendant is of no use to him anymore."

Elder Hei thought about his earlier attempt to test Chu Ge, who had swiftly immobilized him with his Inner Strength, which surprised him with its immensity.

"Your information seems to be incorrect," Elder Hei eyed Hua Liuyue somewhat displeased. Just now was a perfect opportunity to overpower Chu Ge, but because Hua Liuyue had provided information that Chu Ge had not yet broken through the innate stage, he had been careless!

If he had known Chu Ge had already become an Innate Grandmaster, he would definitely not have underestimated him.

Hua Liuyue, also surprised, looked at Elder Hei. She only knew that Chu Ge had regained his martial arts, but she did not know that Chu Ge had become an Innate Grandmaster.

In Hua Liuyue’s mind, Chu Ge becoming an Innate Grandmaster was due to that Heart Sutra, which made her even more determined to obtain that secret manual.

"Alright, let’s put the matter of Chu Ge aside for now and discuss the cooperation between our two sects first," Elder Hei returned to the main agenda.

Hua Liuyue nodded, "This time, your Black Witch Sect is also facing exclusion, which is strange since your sect is also a major sect, yet it’s also been ostracized by All Sects. I heard they even sent someone to Spirit Mountain to invite Sword Pavilion to join in. If Sword Pavilion also joins the organization against the Black Witch Sect, then the future of your sect is indeed worrisome."

Hua Liuyue’s analysis was thorough, which was why the Black Witch Sect approached their Huayue Sect.

Similarly targeted, if they do not join forces now, in the end, they would only be bullied.

Hua Liuyue knew this point well, so she was determined to cooperate with the Black Witch Sect.

But meeting today, the Black Witch Sect gave her such a ’gift’ that not only did it fail, but it also left a bad impression on Chu Ge.

Now, Hua Liuyue felt like she was being used by the Black Witch Sect.

"We seem to have a common goal," Hua Liuyue slightly narrowed her eyes, a hint of a smile on her lips. Their common goal was that Heart Sutra.

Elder Hei chuckled, "You mean that Heart Sutra?"

"Yes," Hua Liuyue didn’t take Chu Ge’s words to heart; she thought it was just a trick Chu Ge used to deceive her.

But Elder Hei took it seriously, and he said to Hua Liuyue, "Just now Chu Ge said that Heart Sutra is not suitable for women to cultivate. Didn’t you ask why?"

"People say the people from the Black Witch Sect like to use tricks, how come you believe every word others say?" Hua Liuyue flicked her hair, her tone carrying a bit of sarcasm.

She was still bothered by the fact the Black Witch Sect used her as a shield.

Seeing Hua Liuyue didn’t believe him, Elder Hei did not say more, but only said, "What we are facing now isn’t just about a secret manual. Let’s set aside this issue for now and focus together on dealing with our common enemies."

Hua Liuyue glanced at him, a faint smile curving her lips, "The so-called enemies, does that include Chu Ge?"

Elder Hei nodded, "Of course, Chu Ge is our number one enemy!"

As for those sects, the Black Witch Sect hadn’t yet taken them seriously at all. As long as Sword Pavilion doesn’t intervene, the Black Witch Sect wasn’t afraid.

Hua Liuyueal pondered; this completely disrupted her plans.

She had intended to find an opportunity to get close to Chu Ge and curry favor, harboring the notion of being polite first before resorting to force. But now with the Black Witch Sect’s interference, directly clashing head-on...

"Do you think, even if you don’t directly confront Chu Ge, he would let you go?"

Elder Hei said.

Hua Liuyue looked at him, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"You just drugged Chu Ge, thinking he would simply let you go? You understand his nature, don’t you? You should know he is vengeful."

What Elder Hei said was not false. Hua Liuyue was naturally worried about Chu Ge’s retaliation, but she had no better way to force Chu Ge to come than by using such methods.

Hua Liuyue fell silent; the situation of the Huayue Sect was dire, she could not afford any mistakes.

"So what do you think we should do?" Hua Liuyue looked up at Elder Hei, asking.

Elder Hei’s turbid eyes sparkled sharply, and he smiled lightly, saying, "In Su City, the Shen Family is famous for their medicinal ingredients, amongst which Earth Ganoderma is the most renowned. I heard that Shen Congwen has recently cleared a plot of land on Snow Mountain to establish a base specifically for cultivating Earth Ganoderma."

Hua Liuyue was puzzled; how does this base relate to dealing with other sects?

"Actually, this base is specifically built for Chu Ge. He has ordered a batch of top-grade Earth Ganoderma from Shen Congwen."

For ordinary people, Earth Ganoderma might just be considered a superior medicinal ingredient, but for Ancient Martial Artists, it is extremely precious.

Hua Liuyue looked at Elder Hei with a skeptical gaze, "Are you saying Chu Ge wants this batch of Earth Ganoderma, and its purpose is related to that secret manual?"

Elder Hei nodded slightly, but this was just his speculation. He always felt that Chu Ge wouldn’t just spend a high price on so much Earth Ganoderma for no reason.

Moreover, for them Ancient Martial Artists, the use of Earth Ganoderma is to enhance martial arts skills.

Chu Ge purchasing such a large quantity of Earth Ganoderma must have obtained some Martial Arts Secret Technique that requires spiritual mushroom’s assistance to enhance, so he bought in large quantities.

With Elder Hei’s words, Hua Liuyue also felt something strange about this matter.

Chu Ge had previously lost all his martial arts skills, but after obtaining the secret manual, his skills were restored. Now hearing what Elder Hei said, she became even more eager for that secret manual.

Meanwhile, when Chu Ge returned to the private room, the aphrodisiac on his body had already been completely cleaned off.
