Chang YuChun said, "Venerable Zhang, you saved my life, and already knows my background. So there's no need for me to hide it. I am indeed a member of the Ming Cult. The government thinks of us as rebels. The righteous sects look down upon us, thinking we're just a bunch of bandits, or that we're minions of the devil. But for you to save me, even knowing who I am, I really don't know how to repay for your kindness."

Zhang SanFeng knows about the origins of the Devil Cult. The God they worship is called 'Muo Ni'. But the worshipers call him 'Honorable Brightness'. When the cult spread into the central plains in the Tang Dynasty, it was called 'Muo Ni Cult', and also 'Cult of the Illuminating Light'. Its worshippers called it the 'Ming Cult', but others call it the Devil Cult. Zhang SanFeng sighed, and said, "Hero Chang…"

Chang YuChun quickly cut in, "Venerable priest, you really don't need to call me a 'hero'. Just call me YuChun." Zhang SanFeng said, "Alright. YuChun, how old are you?" Chang YuChun said, "Twenty."

Zhang SanFeng said, "You're just becoming an adult. So although you've entered the Devil Cult, you haven't sunk in too deeply. You can still get out before it's too late. I have a few words that you may not like. Do you want to hear them?" Chang YuChun said, "Of course. I'd love to hear any advice from Venerable Zhang."

Zhang SanFeng said, "Good! I want you to leave the Devil Cult. If you like Wu Dang, I'll have my eldest student Song YuanQiao take you in as his disciple. This way, you can later walk the martial world with your head up, as no one will ever look down upon you again."

As the head of the Seven Heroes of Wu Dang, everyone knows the famous Song YuanQiao. Normally it's almost impossible for people to even see him. The seven Wu Dang heroes recently began to take in students. But they have very strict standards. Only the most upright youngsters with great potential are admitted. As a member of the Devil Cult, a cult most people frown upon, this really is a once in a lifetime opportunity for Chang YuChun.

Yet his response was, "I deeply thank you for your offer. But since I am already a member of the Ming Cult, I cannot ever leave." Zhang SanFeng tried to persuade him some more, but Chang YuChun would not waver.

Zhang SanFeng finally gave up, shook his head, and sighed. Then he said, "This girl…" Chang YuChun said, "Don't worry. This girl's father died because of me. I'm definitely going to take care of her." Zhang SanFeng said, "Alright. But you cannot let her enter your cult." Chang YuChun said, "I really don't know what we do that make us so despicable in your mind. But if you insist, I'll obey your wish."

Zhang SanFeng held Zhang WuJi in his arms, and said, "Then let us part now." He really doesn't want any more to do with the Devil Cult, and therefore left out the words 'See you later'.

Zhou ZhiRuo said to Zhang WuJi, "Little friend. You need to eat everyday, so the old priest won't worry about you." Zhang WuJi's tears came out, and said, "Thank you for your words. It's just that… I'll only be able to eat for just a while longer." Zhang SanFeng cleaned out Zhang WuJi's tears with his sleeve. Zhou ZhiRuo asked in shock, "What? You… You…" Zhang SanFeng said, "Little girl, you have a kind heart. I hope you'll later go on the route of righteousness, and not of evil."

Zhou ZhiRuo said, "Ok. But this little friend, why does he say that he can only eat for just a while longer?" Zhang SanFeng could not respond.

Chang YuChun said, "Venerable Zhang, considering your martial arts abilities, surely you can cure this little friend's poison, right?" Zhang SanFeng said, "Of course I can." But he then shook his left hand behind Zhang WuJi, pointing out that Zhang WuJi is beyond help, but doesn't want him to know it.

Upon seeing Zhang SanFeng shaking his hand, Chang YuChun gasped. He said, "Due to the severity of my injuries, I was just about to go see a very distinguished doctor. How about I take this little friend with me?" Zhang SanFeng shook his head, said, "His cold poison has already entered the vital organs. It's not something normal medicine can cure. We only… only hope to slowly disperse the poison." Chang YuChun said, "But the doctor I'm talking about has the ability to bring back the dead."

Zhang SanFeng suddenly remembered a person, and asked, "Are you talking about the 'Divine Doctor of the Butterfly Valley'?"

Chang YuChun said, "That's right. So you know about Elder Hu too?"

Zhang SanFeng thought, "From my knowledge, this 'Divine Doctor of the Butterfly Valley', Hu QingNuo, does indeed have unparalleled medical skills. But he is member of the Devil Cult. Besides, he has a very strange temper. He'll do his best to cure any Devil Cult followers, and not ask for a single penny. Yet he will not treat anyone else, no matter how much money is offered. Therefore, he has another nickname, 'Rather See Death Than Help'. If so, it's really better for WuJi to die than to enter the Devil Cult."

Seeing the grave expression on Zhang SanFeng's face, Chang YuChun understood what he's thinking, and said, "Venerable Zhang, I know Elder Hu never treats outsiders. But since you saved my life, I'll do anything I can to make Elder Hu break the rule this one time." Zhang SanFeng said, "I know just how amazing this Doctor Hu's skills are. But unfortunately, this cold poison on WuJi's body is very unique…" Chang YuChun said, "But you can't cure him. The worst that can happen is that Elder Hu can't cure him either. If he's going to die regardless, what's the big deal?" Chang YuChun is a straightforward person, and therefore said what he thought.

Zhang SanFeng pondered a bit, "He's right. Look like WuJi only has about another month to live. What is there to be afraid of?" Zhang SanFeng has always been a very sincere person, and normally never thinks about possible hidden motives. But Zhang WuJi is his disciple's only child. How could he give WuJi to a member of the Devil Cult? At this moment, he really doesn't know what to do.

Chang YuChun said, "I know Venerable Zhang doesn't want to go see Elder Hu. After all, how could a head of a righteous sect seek help from us evil cults? Besides, with Elder Hu's strange temper, he'd probably offend you. I guess the only is way is for me to take Brother Zhang to Elder Hu. Then I'll come to Wu Dang Mountain to be your hostage. Should anything happen to Brother Zhang, you can go ahead and kill me."

Zhang SanFeng chuckled, thought, "Should anything really happen to WuJi, how would killing you help? Besides, how can I be sure you'll definitely come to Wu Dang?" But considering WuJi's condition, there really isn't any other possible cure. So Zhang SanFeng said, "If so, then please take care of WuJi. But I must make two things clear. Mr. Hu cannot force WuJi into your cult. And Wu Dang is not going to accept your gratitude on this matter." He knew that the Devil Cult is very devious and strange in its ways. Being associated with them could only lead to big problems. After all, isn't Zhang CuiShan's death a perfect example?

Chang YuChun said, "Venerable Zhang is really belittling my cult. But if you say so, I'll obey." Zhang SanFeng said, "Take good care of WuJi. Should he ever recover, take him back to Wu Dang. But there's no need to come to Wu Dang as a hostage." Chang YuChun said, "I'll do all I can to follow your wishes."

Zhang SanFeng said, "As for this little girl, I'll take her back to Wu Dang Mountain."
