143: The gentleman sword eliminated the three evils! (seeking full subscription)
"Thank you, Headmaster Yue!"
Madam Wang heard this, quickly turned around, revealing a look of joy.
But soon, she revealed an awkward look, quickly stretching out her arm to cover her heaving chest, lowering her head, not daring to look at Ning Yuan.
She only whispered, "It was I who harmed Headmaster Yue, but Headmaster Yue, rest assured, I will not tell anyone about this, and even less will I let Heroine Ning know."
As she spoke, Madam Wang felt the long sword pressing against her wound again.
She couldn't help but widen her eyes and swallow a mouthful of saliva.
Struggling internally for a long time, Madam Wang revealed a look of determination, "Headmaster Yue, that place really won't do, how about I..."
Madam Wang said this while slowly moving downward, looking up at Ning Yuan.
"This... is this not too good..."
Ning Yuan feigned embarrassment.
Madam Wang lowered her head, a burst of fear, but thinking that even Ning Zhongze could do it, what did she count as?
Madam Wang slowly opened her lips.
Ning Yuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
After a long time, Madam Wang put on her clothes, her face flushed red, standing at the door, back to Ning Yuan.
"Thank you for your hard work, Madam Lin."
Ning Yuan sighed behind her, then said, "Madam Lin, rest assured, I will definitely not treat Lin Pingzhi unfairly."
Madam Wang paused, then left in a hurry without looking back.
However, just after opening the door and walking a few steps, she saw Ning Zhongze also happening to walk out.
"Madam Lin."
Ning Zhongze revealed a look of surprise, then looked at the room Madam Wang walked out of, revealing a hint of confusion, "Madam Lin is this..."
Madam Wang quickly suppressed the panic in her heart, squeezing out a smile, "Heroine Ning, I came to see Headmaster Yue this morning regarding Pingzhi's matter."
"So that's how it is."
Ning Zhongze realized, then sighed lightly, "Rest assured, I will also help you persuade Senior Brother."
"Thank you, Heroine Ning."
Madam Wang said quickly, but she didn't dare let Ning Zhongze go directly to the Gentleman Sword's room, afraid of being seen through, so she immediately found a topic and went back to the room with Ning Zhongze to talk in detail.

"Luck increased by 20 points, obtained 6x Comprehension Ability!"
"Obtaining Luck in this world is really difficult."
Ning Yuan said to himself secretly.
Because the Opportunities in this world are far inferior to Tianlong.
"This world seems to have also incorporated Ode to Gallantry, but I cannot be distracted for now."
"Let's return to Mount Hua first."
"Find an Opportunity to absorb the internal energy of other experts from Songshan, then deal with Zuo Lengchan and Ren Woxing. At that time, presumably even Dongfang Bubai might not be my opponent."
"However, before that, I need to find a way to obtain the Nine Swords of Dugu, think of a way to gain Feng Qingyang's approval."
Ning Yuan stroked his long beard, made a decision in his heart, then put on his clothes, got up, and left.
When he met Ning Zhongze.
Ning Zhongze suddenly said, "Senior Brother, I observe that this junior Lin Pingzhi has a firm Heart-Nature, extraordinary willpower, and great filial piety. Also, hearing Lingshan mention it, the reason why he provoked the Qingcheng Sect and killed Yu Canghai's son was also because of his chivalrous heart, in order to save Lingshan."
"So I hope Senior Brother can consider taking him as a Disciple?"
"Since Junior Sister says so, how could I refuse? Let's do this, after returning to Mount Hua, I will take him as a Disciple."
Ning Yuan agreed directly.
This made Ning Zhongze feel somewhat moved.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Ning Zhongze didn't expect that she would only have to say it once for her husband to agree.
This made her feel respected.
As well as the importance she held in the other person's heart.
On the other side.
Madam Wang also found Lin Pingzhi.
"Pingzhi, after going up the mountain, you must kneel and beg Headmaster Yue to take you as a Disciple again. Presumably, he will recognize your persistence."
Madam Wang instructed.
After all, this was an Opportunity she had paid for with herself to secure.
She didn't want it to go wrong at the last moment.
"Mother, don't worry."
Lin Pingzhi nodded.
When Lu Dayou returned and reported that the mountain was safe, everyone immediately returned to Mount Hua.
After returning to Jade Maiden Peak.
Lin Pingzhi knelt before Ning Yuan again.
Madam Wang and Ning Zhongze both looked at Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan saw this and sighed lightly, "Since you have such sincerity, I will take you as my ninth Disciple."
Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi was overjoyed. It was only under Madam Wang's reminder that he kowtowed repeatedly.
"Alright, you go down first and let a few Senior Brothers familiarize you with Mount Hua."
Ning Yuan waved people away.
"I will go and have the kitchen prepare a banquet to celebrate that our Mount Hua has added another person."
Ning Zhongze was also full of smiles.
Soon, only Ning Yuan and Madam Wang remained in the hall.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
A moment later, Madam Wang suddenly stood up, "Headmaster Yue, since Pingzhi has already entered your sect, as an outsider, it is inconvenient for me to stay at Mount Hua. I will go down the mountain now."
Madam Wang had already decided that after leaving, she would go down to accompany her husband.
Ning Yuan had already seen through Madam Wang's thoughts, but he said, "Madam, this journey is likely full of dangers. If something happens to you, I'm afraid Lin Pingzhi will not be able to Cultivate with peace of mind. He will be completely blinded by hatred. At that time, I'm afraid I won't be able to persuade him, and who knows what will happen."
"If Madam Lin is still here, then Lin Pingzhi still has attachments in his heart and will not do wrong things. Even if you don't think for yourself, Madam, you should think for him!"
"This..."
Hearing this, Madam Wang hesitated. Thinking carefully, she felt that what the other party said was reasonable.
In case she suddenly died, she was afraid Lin Pingzhi would simply be unable to accept it.
"Very well, I will stay for a while longer. When he can accept everything, I will go to accompany my husband. I am sorry, husband, I can only let you be lonely underground for a while longer, but rest assured, I will definitely come to find you."
Madam Wang thought silently in her heart, then nodded, "I understand, I will stay for the time being."
"That is good."
Ning Yuan nodded slightly, then added, "Madam Lin, rest assured, I will definitely not speak of last night's events, nor will I force you again. I will treat as if nothing ever happened."
Madam Wang's cheeks flushed slightly, and she could only whisper, "Thank you, Headmaster Yue."
"Also, Madam, there is no need to be so distant and call me Headmaster Yue."
Ning Yuan added.
Madam Wang was stunned for a moment, and only after a moment did she say, "Then I will call you Mr. Yue."
"Good."
Ning Yuan agreed.
Madam Wang hesitated for a moment, then also said, "My husband has passed away, in the future Headmaster... Mr. Yue, just call me Madam Wang directly."
"That is natural."
And just as the two were chatting, Ning Zhongze finally returned.
"Madam Wang, you have suffered during this time, and the upcoming days at Mount Hua are likely not to be peaceful. Jade Maiden Peak is where Disciples reside, so I have arranged your room near mine and Senior Brother's. Do you think that is okay?"
Ning Zhongze asked with a smile, looking at Madam Wang.
Madam Wang nodded quickly, "Thank you, Heroine Ning, as long as it does not disturb Heroine Ning, that is fine."
"It will not."
Ning Zhongze shook her head dismissively.
...
Several days passed without incident.
Ning Yuan also began to teach Lin Pingzhi the Mount Hua Swordplay.
And he let Lao Denuo, the third Disciple of Zuo Lengchan, teach him personally.
As for Lingshan, he let Ning Zhongze continue her education.
And Ning Yuan also began to continue contemplating sword techniques.
Or rather, merging sword techniques, removing the complex and keeping the simple, making the sword moves more fierce and direct.
"Where does sword technique need to be so complex?"
"The function of sword moves is only one, and that is to kill people."
"The simpler the better, the more direct the better."
Ning Yuan practiced sword techniques in the courtyard.
But today, a burst of hurried footsteps arrived.
"Master, it is bad, people from the Songshan Sect have come up the mountain."
Lu Dayou reported in a panic.
"Finally here."
Ning Yuan retracted his sword and stood up, unhurried.
The peace of many days was finally broken.
...
On Jade Maiden Peak.
"Zuo Lengchan, is it you who killed my grandfather's entire family?"
Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but question after seeing Zuo Lengchan.
"I have wiped out countless families in my life, who are you?"
Zuo Lengchan sat on the sedan chair and said calmly.
"You!"
Lin Pingzhi's face flushed red with anger, and he said angrily, "My grandfather is Wang Yuanba of the Golden Blade Sect."
"So you are the descendant of the Fuwei Escort Agency."
Hearing this, Zuo Lengchan's eyes lit up, his gaze fell on Lin Pingzhi, thoughtful.
Lin Pingzhi immediately felt his hair stand on end.
"It just so happens I have something I want to ask, come here."
Zuo Lengchan suddenly flew up, intending to capture Lin Pingzhi.
Lin Pingzhi immediately showed horror, and the other Senior Brothers beside him wanted to help, but it was already too late.
Just at this moment, a burst of Sword Qi arrived through the air.
"Alliance Leader Zuo, your grand presence is here, Yue has failed to welcome you from afar, but there is no need to vent your anger on my Disciple because of this, right?"
Ning Yuan's voice came from afar.
Zuo Lengchan snorted coldly, flew and rotated, and returned to the sedan chair to sit down again.
"Yue Buqun, you finally came out. You killed my Junior Brother, are you not prepared to give me an explanation?"
Zuo Lengchan returned to the sedan chair, sat down again, and said coldly.
"Alliance Leader Zuo, your manner has become more and more grand over the years. Could it be that you think my Mount Hua is an affiliate of Songshan?"
Ning Yuan and Ning Zhongze walked out and said coldly from afar.
Seeing Ning Yuan, Zuo Lengchan immediately stood up and laughed loudly, "Headmaster Yue's prestige has truly been high recently. You killed my Junior Brother, and also killed Qingcheng Sect Leader Yu Canghai and the Desert Camel, with your heroic name spreading far and wide."
"Now people in the Jianghu all think that you, Yue Buqun, are the true Five Mountains Alliance Chief!"
"I dare not, I dare not. The Five Mountains Alliance Chief is jointly elected by the Five Mountains, what virtue or ability does Yue have."
Ning Yuan arrived at the platform and said calmly, "It was just to eliminate the three evils for the Jianghu, it counts for nothing."
"Three evils? Hmph!"
Zuo Lengchan's face sank, and he snorted coldly, "What does Headmaster Yue mean by this?"
"Junior Brother Fei is a person of my Songshan. How did he become an evil?"
"Yu Canghai is also the Sect Head of the Qingcheng Sect, a righteous sect, how did he become an evil in the mouth of Headmaster Yue?"
"Yue Buqun, are you deliberately humiliating my Songshan Sect?"
Lu Bai, who was on the side, shouted sharply.
"Fei Bin wantonly killed the innocent, harmed the old and young, women and children, and wiped out an entire family. How is such behavior not evil?"
"Could it be that this is how Alliance Leader Zuo acts as the Five Mountains Alliance Chief?"
"With such cruel behavior, I am afraid that if it spreads out, fellow Jianghu practitioners will think that our Five Mountains Sword Sect has already fallen into the Demonic Path and become the claws and teeth of the Demonic Cult."
Ning Yuan was also not polite at all.
Zuo Lengchan's face was livid.
He had never thought that within the Five Mountains Sword Sect, anyone would dare to openly oppose him.
Even though he knew before that the person in front of him had killed Fei Bin, he had only assumed that Yue Buqun had killed him by mistake.
But he didn't expect that now that he saw him, Yue Buqun was not afraid at all.
