Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre Episode 26 Recap
> Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre Recap
Zhang Wuji's injuries healed quickly. He came to his parents' graves to pay respects and couldn't help but cry heartbrokenly. Zhang Sanfeng and others were also moved by this. Afterwards, Zhang Sanfeng hosted a banquet to entertain the Ming Cult group, using tea instead of wine to thank them for helping Wudang. Zhou Dian and Wei Yixiao and others speculated about Zhao Min's identity.
Zhang Wuji felt the top priority was to find Zhao Min to get the Black Jade Ointment to treat Yu Daiyan and Yin Liting's injuries, and then try to find out the whereabouts of Song Yuanqiao and Yu Lianzhou.
Zhang Wuji asked Yin Tianzheng and his son to return to Jiangnan to reorganize the various branches of the Heavenly Eagle Cult, sent the deputy flag bearers of the Five-Element Flags to the Six Major Sects to gather information, arranged for Peng Yingyu to temporarily stay in Wudang for support, and Zhang Wuji decided to take Yang Xiao and others to find the Black Jade Ointment.
Zhang Wuji used the Nine Yang Divine Skill to heal Zhang Sanfeng, who quickly recovered as before. Zhang Wuji worried about not being a good Ming Cult leader. Zhang Sanfeng encouraged him, firmly believing that he could lead the Ming Cult disciples onto the right path and benefit future generations. Yang Buhui pushed Yin Liting to the long corridor by the lake for a stroll, and suddenly smelled a strong floral fragrance.
Yang Buhui quickly picked a bouquet of fresh flowers. Yin Liting's mood greatly improved, but he couldn't bear for Yang Buhui to continue staying to take care of him, so he angrily drove her away. Yin Liting quickly regretted it and had a young Taoist attendant push him around to look for Yang Buhui, finally finding her on the back mountain.
Yin Liting understood Yang Buhui's deep affection for him, but he was now a cripple and could not give Yang Buhui happiness, so he couldn't bear to hold her back. However, she didn't care about these things at all, willing to take care of Yin Liting for life, even threatening to die. Yin Liting, in a fit of pique, threatened to jump off the cliff with her, leaving Yang Buhui speechless with anger.
Zhang Wuji and Yang Xiao and others went down the mountain to look for the ointment. Yang Buhui rushed over. Yang Xiao mistakenly thought she was there to see them off, but unexpectedly, Yang Buhui called Zhang Wuji aside and eagerly inquired about the past grievances between Yin Liting and her parents. Zhang Wuji casually made excuses to fob her off, promising to find the Black Jade Ointment as soon as possible to treat Yin Liting's injuries.
Yang Buhui had no choice but to admit her deep affection for Yin Liting, and swore to stay by his side forever. Zhang Wuji was deeply surprised, worrying that she stayed with Yin Liting to atone for sins, but Yang Buhui frankly stated that her love for Yin Liting was true, hoping Zhang Wuji would make the decision for her. Before Zhang Wuji could answer, Yang Buhui left with a flourish.
Zhang Wuji and Yang Xiao reunited and continued on their journey, but Zhang Wuji was uneasy the whole way. Zhou Dian and Wei Yixiao both thought Zhang Wuji was reluctant to part with Yang Buhui, and congratulated Yang Xiao on becoming the future father-in-law of the leader. Yang Xiao quickly stopped them, but felt secretly pleased. The group of four, led by Zhang Wuji, soon arrived outside Gucheng.
Yang Xiao suggested that they search for Zhao Min's whereabouts from the four directions of southeast, northwest, and agreed to meet at Gucheng tomorrow noon. Zhang Wuji voluntarily offered to search from the west. Yang Xiao, Zhou Dian, and Wei Yixiao also split up. Zhang Wuji learned at an inn that a group of people in a yellow satin palanquin was heading west towards Huanglong Town. He didn't even stop to eat and immediately rushed to follow them closely.
Zhang Wuji caught up with Zhao Min's party overnight and quietly entered the room of three injured people. He quickly found a box of ointment, but worried it wasn't the Black Jade Ointment, so he scraped some off the wounds of those three people. Just as Zhang Wuji was about to leave, he was unexpectedly surrounded by archers. Zhang Wuji safely escaped by virtue of his superb Qinggong.
Zhang Wuji traveled day and night to rush back to Wudang, hoping to treat Yu Daiyan and Yin Liting's injuries with the ointment as soon as possible. However, Yu Daiyan's wounds had already healed, so Zhang Wuji could only break all his bones again before applying the medicine. Yu Daiyan endured the severe pain, allowing Zhang Wuji to boldly administer the treatment. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wuji also applied the ointment to Yin Liting.
Just as he was about to lie down for a short rest, he received a report from Xiao Zhao, learning that Yin Liting had fainted from pain three times. Zhang Wuji quickly went to investigate. Not only was the pain in Yu Daiyan's broken bones unbearable, but his internal organs were also incredibly itchy, as if thousands of small insects were crawling inside him. Yin Liting had the same symptoms.
Zhang Wuji was startled to discover that what he brought back was not the Black Jade Ointment, but the highly toxic Seven Worms Seven Flowers Ointment. He then realized he had fallen for Zhao Min's scheme again. He dared not delay, and quickly had Yang Buhui and a young Taoist attendant bring strong liquor to wipe off the potent poison from Yu Daiyan and Yin Liting. Zhang Wuji was filled with deep regret, weeping sorrowfully and incessantly.
Xiao Zhao could only try to comfort him kindly. Yang Buhui desperately pleaded with Zhang Wuji to find a way to remove the poison for Yin Liting, but he was powerless and could only sigh to the heavens. Yin Liting cried out in pain, and Yang Buhui stayed by his side at all times. Yin Liting was moved to tears, and openly declared his deep affection for Yang Buhui on the spot.
He admitted that he had always spoken harshly to Yang Buhui because he didn't want to burden her. Yin Liting knew his time was short and instructed Yang Buhui to live well. Just as Zhang Wuji was at his wit's end, Zhao Min proactively came to Wudang to find him. Xiao Zhao told him to return the hairpin to Zhao Min.
Zhang Wuji swore to be sworn enemies with Zhao Min, refusing to accept anything from her, and left with the hairpin. Zhang Wuji arrived at the mountain gate, drew his sword, pointed it at Zhao Min, forced her to hand over the antidote, and also returned the hairpin Zhao Min had given him. However, Zhao Min provoked him in every way, forcing Zhang Wuji to agree to three conditions, in exchange for handing over the antidote.
Zhang Wuji, having no other choice, had to agree first and sealed it with a high-five. Zhao Min placed the hairpin in Zhang Wuji's hair, promised to send the antidote soon, and also reminded Zhang Wuji not to give the hairpin to Xiao Zhao again. Zhao Min, accompanied by the Xuanming Elders, left triumphantly.
Before leaving, she left a note stating that the formula for the Seven Worms Seven Flowers Ointment antidote was hidden within the bejeweled flower of the hairpin. Zhang Wuji dared not delay, quickly found the prescription, and decocted the medicine according to it. At the same time, Xiao Zhao also discovered the Black Jade Ointment in the box containing the hairpin. Abbess Miejue and her disciples were imprisoned and subjected to various humiliations by the assassins. Abbess Miejue quietly reminded Zhou Zhiruo to seize the opportunity to escape and then revitalize the Emei Sect. Zhou Zhiruo safely escaped when they were unprepared.
