Chapter 72 Sadness
half a month later.
dong dong dong-
There was a knock on the door in the room.
Jin Renfeng, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, opened his eyes, got up from the bed and opened the door.
But Yue Lingshan, wearing a green dress, was standing outside the door.
"Junior sister, why are you coming to see me in the middle of the night?"
Jin Renfeng walked outside the house and asked in confusion.
Yue Lingshan smoothed the ends of her hair and said,
"I came here this time to tell my senior brother that I will be going down the mountain with my third senior brother tomorrow, so I can't practice sword with you."
"So don't wait for me tomorrow, Senior Brother."
"Go down the mountain? Why?"
Yue Lingshan looked embarrassed.
"It's about a secret matter. Daddy doesn't want us to tell anyone about it. Big Brother, please don't ask about it."
Jin Renfeng seemed to be thinking about something, and asked tentatively,
"Could it be something about the Qingcheng Sect?"
Yue Lingshan and Lao Denuo went out together. Thinking back to the letter Lao Denuo sent half a month ago, what other secrets could there be besides the Fuwei Escort Agency and the Qingcheng Sect?
“Brother, you already knew this?” Yue Lingshan opened her mouth slightly, a look of surprise on her face.
"Of course." Jin Renfeng lied casually.
Yue Lingshan nodded, thinking that Jin Renfeng already knew the contents, so she no longer concealed it and casually told him all the information.
"Dad learned that something big was going to happen between the Qingcheng Sect and the Fuwei Escort Agency. So he asked me and my third senior brother to go and watch."
Well! I finally felt relieved.
Lao Yue still took a fancy to the Exorcism Sword Technique.
"Master took the initiative to ask you, junior sister, to go?" Jin Renfeng asked with a serious expression.
"No, I accidentally heard Dad and Third Brother discussing something, and then I learned about it. I thought it was interesting, so I thought of taking this opportunity to go down the mountain and have some fun." Yue Lingshan smiled cunningly.
"Originally, Daddy didn't want me to go, but he couldn't stand my constant nagging."
Jin Renfeng glared at Yue Lingshan who was still feeling complacent.
This silly girl doesn’t even know she’s been sold.
Considering the scheming of Master Yue Buqun, if he really wanted to conceal it, how could he have let Yue Lingshan find out about the Qingcheng Sect and the Fuwei Escort Agency?
Furthermore, even if Yue Lingshan knew, if the master had made up his mind not to let her go, I'm afraid that even if Yue Lingshan begged for three days and three nights, the master would not change his mind.
It's like this now, it's clearly intentional.
"It seems that Old Yue really wants to use Yue Lingshan to lure Lin Pingzhi and obtain the Sword Manual of Exorcism." Jin Renfeng thought to himself.
No one would believe Yue Buqun who let his only daughter, who was ignorant of the world, run to Fujian, thousands of miles away, to sell wine.
"Poor Junior Brother Linghu, your childhood sweetheart has been destined for Lin Pingzhi by Master from the very beginning. No matter how much you struggle, it's useless."
Jin Renfeng couldn't help but shake his head, feeling sad for Linghu Chong's future.
In the original novel, Yue Lingshan quickly fell in love with Lin Pingzhi within a few months under the various tactics of Yue Buqun.
Now it seems that even with the Golden Phoenix around, Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan will have to go back to their old ways.
In fact, Jin Renfeng had been trying to change Yue Buqun in the past.
Eleven years ago, he revealed the stone carvings on the Cliff of Regret and gave them to his master Yue Buqun specifically in order to improve his sword skills and put an end to his desire to compete for the Exorcism Sword.
Originally, Jin Renfeng thought that with the additional twenty years of internal strength and great improvement in swordsmanship, Yue Buqun had become a top martial artist and there was no need for him to pursue the Exorcism Sword Technique.
The crisis facing the Huashan Sect was largely resolved.
But unexpectedly, Yue Buqun returned to his old path.
But this is no wonder, human desires are endless.
People like Yue Buqun would not be satisfied just because his inner strength increased and his swordsmanship improved.
The increase in strength often brings greater ambitions.
This is human nature.
"Old Yue, Old Yue!" Thinking of this troublesome master, Jin Renfeng sighed in his heart.
"You really can cause me trouble!"
Yue Lingshan, who was standing by, didn't know what he was thinking, so she solemnly warned him,
"Since you know about this, Senior Brother, please don't tell your fellow disciples about it."
"Dad specifically said that this matter must not be leaked."
"Don't worry, senior brother will keep it a secret." Jin Renfeng agreed on the surface.
Afterwards, Yue Lingshan said goodbye and left. Jin Renfeng closed the door and began to pack her luggage.
Given the current situation, he must go to Fujian together.
No matter what, he couldn't let Yue Buqun get involved in the fight for the Exorcism Sword this time.
The Exorcism Sword Technique is extremely strange. Anyone who loves martial arts would say they must practice it after seeing it.
Because of this, Ren Woxing refused to read the Sunflower Manual no matter what.
Although Master Yue Buqun cannot be said to be a martial arts lover, he is a man with overflowing ambitions. Once you see it, you will definitely be deeply attracted to it.
In addition, Jin Renfeng also didn't want his junior sister to have anything to do with Lin Pingzhi.
The two have been together for more than ten years, and he has long regarded Lingshan as his own sister.
Thinking about how Yue Lingshan ended up marrying a eunuch in the original novel and was abused to death by Lin Pingzhi, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
The next morning, after leaving a letter, Jin Renfeng followed Yue Lingshan and Lao Denuo to Fujian.
. . . . . . .
The next morning, Jin Renfeng was nowhere to be seen, so Liang Fa went to his room to look for him.
After discovering the letter he left behind, he handed it to Yue Buqun.
After reading the contents of the letter, Yue Buqun became furious.
"This evil creature is acting on his own again!"
"What happened?" Ning Zhongze asked.
"I sent Lingshan and Denuo to Fujian to do some work, but I didn't expect that Renfeng would go with them, and he didn't even inform me."
Yue Buqun's expression was uncertain.
Ning Zhongze frowned and said,
"Let's not talk about Denuo for now. Why did you send Lingshan to Fujian? She has never been out of the martial arts world and has no experience at all. Wouldn't she delay Denuo's work?"
Yue Buqun waved his hand and said coldly.
"I have my own arrangements for these. You don't need to say more."
"If we need to do something, wouldn't it be a good idea for Feng'er to go along?" Ning Zhongze asked. "He is highly skilled in martial arts and has a lot of experience in the martial arts world. With him by her side, Lingshan will be safer."
“I’m not worried about Lingshan’s safety, I’m worried about Renfeng’s temper.” Yue Buqun said, “The Qingcheng Sect is involved in the Fujian incident. If Renfeng gets angry, I’m afraid he will become enemies with the Qingcheng Sect.”
Ning Zhongze was puzzled. "This is strange. A few days ago, the grudge between us and Qingcheng was resolved. What could the Qingcheng Sect do to make Feng'er angry?"
“It’s hard to talk about this matter.” Yue Buqun shook his head.
He looked uncertain, as if he was worried about something, and finally said firmly,
"No, I have to go to Fujian immediately."
"But now Junior Brother Liu from Hengshan Sect is about to retire, and he wants you to go and pay him a visit," Ning Zhongze advised.
"Without you and Feng'er not here, who will Huashan send to Hengshan City? Who will be in charge?"
"Junior sister, you will take care of Huashan for the time being." Yue Buqun began to make arrangements. "I will take a few disciples southwards. When we reach Hengshan City, I will rush to Fujian and have them wait in Hengshan City."
When Ning Zhongze heard it, he felt it was appropriate and agreed.
Then, under the leadership of Yue Buqun, several Huashan disciples set off with him.
