The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 96 Washing hands in a golden basin
"Young Master Mu has made a big splash today!" Liu Zhengfeng said with a smile after pouring a cup of tea for Mu Sheng.

"That's right. Tian Boguang committed countless sins with that evil source. His death is retribution. With such a big scene, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the government."

Qu Yang sighed, shaking his head, and at the same time felt a little worried.

The knights broke the law with their martial arts, so the imperial court naturally did not want to let these martial artists do whatever they wanted. However, these martial artists were too mobile and could move around freely.

It would take too much manpower and resources to control them, and the imperial court has now entered a period of decline. Faced with various internal and external troubles, it has no energy to control these people in the underworld.

If the people in the underworld only fought and killed each other within their own circles, the government would not bother to care about them. However, Mu Sheng's public execution of Tian Boguang today was considered to have crossed the line.

"What karma? If there really was karma, Tian Boguang would have died long ago, and there wouldn't be so much oppression and persecution in this world. It's nothing but self-deception and consolation."

"As for the attention of the government, just pay attention to it, what can they do to me?" Mu Sheng said domineeringly after taking a look at the Sword Manual of Exorcism, which had already completed 95% of the progress.

With Tian Boguang's light-weight body skills and the speed boost from his evil-repelling internal energy, even Dongfang Bubai can only look at the taillights of his car and sigh.

In addition, the Xiaohei Reconnaissance Team patrolled within a ten-mile radius of Mu Sheng day and night, so even if someone wanted to surround him, it would be impossible.

It would take 30,000 people holding hands just to form such a large encirclement, but such an encirclement is meaningless. It would be as easy for Mu Sheng to break through as to tear a piece of paper.

"Hahaha, Young Master Mu is so courageous."

"With Young Master Mu's current martial arts, there is really no need to worry about it."

Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang are most aware of Mu Sheng's current strength, so they don't think he is bragging.

"By the way, has there been any reply from Mr. Mo Da?" Mu Sheng asked after taking a sip of tea.

"Senior Brother said that if Zuo Lengchan really had the ambition to merge with the other sects, he would take action."

"But the matter between me and Brother Qu must also be resolved. Since Zuo Lengchan already knows about this, the Hengshan Sect still needs to give an explanation to the fellow martial artists."

"No matter what Zuo Lengchan's ambitions are, my relationship with Brother Qu will never be accepted by my fellow martial artists."

"It's a good opportunity to retire from the underworld, so as not to tarnish the reputation of the Hengshan Sect."

Liu Zhengfeng sighed. Although he had thought about leaving Hengshan Sect a long time ago, when it really came to this, he still felt some emotions in his heart.

Mu Sheng was not surprised that Liu Zhengfeng made the same choice. With him around, Liu Zhengfeng's family would never be wiped out again.

But he could not stop the gossips of people in the martial arts world. To Liu Zhengfeng, Hengshan Sect was his second home and he did not want to tarnish the reputation of Hengshan Sect because of himself.

"Senior Liu, don't worry. Even if you retire, you can still stay in Hengyang City."

"Young Master Mu is right. If Brother Liu can't let go of the Hengshan Sect, I can always help him in the future. There is no difference except that he no longer has the identity of the Hengshan Sect."

"That's true. It's Liu who is too sentimental."

"."

A few days later, it was finally time for Liu Zhengfeng to retire.

All the people from all the major sects except the Songshan Sect have arrived to attend the event. Unlike the original novel, there is no turmoil in the Qun Yuyuan, and there is no incident of Yue Buqun accepting Lin Pingzhi.

At this time, the news that the Qingcheng Sect was wiped out by a mysterious person in front of the Fuwei Escort Agency in Fuzhou City had spread as many martial artists gathered in Hengyang City.

People can't help but think of Lin Yuantu's deterrence back then. Unfortunately, before the news spread, some of the people Yu Canghai sent to wipe out the branches of Fuwei Escort Agency in various places had already succeeded.

If the Fuwei Escort Agency cannot handle this matter properly, one day its nature as a paper tiger will be discovered.

At noon, nearly five or six hundred guests had already poured into Liu's residence.

In addition to the Five Mountains Sword Sect, there are also the Beggars' Sect, the Zhengzhou Liuhe Sect, the East China Sea Sand Sect, and many other gangs, as well as many independent people. Without the officials coming to announce the decree and Liu Zhengfeng receiving the position of lieutenant general, the banquet soon entered the stage of retiring from the underworld.

In the hall, Mi Weiyi brought out a brocade-covered tea table, and Xiang Danian held a golden basin full of water. After a few firecrackers were set off, everyone gathered in the hall to watch the fun.

Liu Zhengfeng walked out with a smile on his face, clasped his fists and saluted. All the martial artists stood up and returned the salute.

"Liu Zhengfeng is grateful to all the friends from the martial arts world for coming from afar. I am tired of the fighting and killing in the martial arts world, and I just want to express my feelings among the mountains and rivers, and play the zither with one or two good friends."

"After retiring today, Liu Zhengfeng will officially retire from the martial arts world. If his disciples wish to join another sect, they can do so."

"I invite all of you here today to serve as a witness. From now on, you will all be my friends when you come to Hengyang City, but I will not ask about the grudges in the martial arts world."

After saying this, he drew out the sword from his waist and broke it in two. Then he bent down, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to reach into the golden basin to wash his hands.

"Wait a minute!"

After a loud shout, several big men in yellow came in from the gate and stood on both sides. Then a tall man in yellow walked in with his head held high, holding a five-colored flag.

"Here is the Five Mountains Alliance Leader's flag. Uncle Liu, following the order of the Five Mountains Sword Sect's Left Alliance Leader, Uncle Liu's retirement from the martial arts world will be postponed for now."

Liu Zhengfeng slowly stood up, without even looking at the person coming, and said loudly to the door:

"Since all the brothers from Songshan Sect are here, why don't they show up to see us? Instead, they send a disciple to rush ahead. Do they have something shameful to do?"

When these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was shocked, followed by a burst of discussion.

First, the command flag of the Five Mountains Sword Sect appeared to stop Liu Zhengfeng from retiring, and now from what he said, I'm afraid there is some extraordinary secret.

Ding Mian, Fei Bin and others who were hiding secretly were also shocked when they heard this. They didn't know what went wrong and was discovered by Liu Zhengfeng. Fortunately, his family members had been controlled by them.

Since their whereabouts had been discovered, continuing to hide would reveal their ulterior motives, so Ding Mian jumped off the roof with Fei Bin and Lu Bai, leaving the two bodyguards Le Hou and Zhong Zhen to continue hiding as a backup.

"Brother Liu, the leader has ordered that you are not allowed to retire."

After Ding Mian appeared with his two fellow apprentices, they looked at Liu Zhengfeng with some surprise as to how he had discovered their whereabouts.

"And the two brothers, why are you still hiding on the roof? Is there some beauty on the roof of my Liu Mansion? Why are the two brothers so reluctant to leave?"

When the martial artists in the hall heard Liu Zhengfeng's words, they immediately burst into noisy laughter.

The Songshan Sect is powerful, but there are five or six hundred fellow martial artists gathered here, and no matter how powerful the Songshan Sect is, they can't do anything to them.

"Brother Ding, what do you want to do by doing this? If you don't give a reasonable explanation, I will definitely ask Brother Zuo for an explanation."

The suspicious behavior of the Songshan Sect immediately angered Master Dingyi of the Hengshan Sect: "Why are the two brothers from the Songshan Sect still hiding?"

"Junior Brother Le, Junior Brother Zhong, please come out too."

Ding Mian had no choice but to call the two men out, and soon two more men in yellow jumped down from the roof.

After being exposed by Liu Zhengfeng twice, everyone started to look at the Songshan Sect with a suspicious look. To avoid unnecessary complications, Ding Mian stated his purpose directly.

"Brother Liu, you have a very keen sense. Unfortunately, the more powerful you are, the more of a threat you pose to the lives and property of fellow martial artists. Brother Liu, do you think you can hide your collusion with the Demon Sect elder Qu Yang from our Songshan Sect?"

Ding Mian's words had already become a stern shout at the end, and the information revealed in his words shocked his fellow martial artists in the hall.

"Senior Brother Liu, is what Senior Brother Ding said true? Are you really in collusion with the Demon Cult Elder Qu Yang?" Upon hearing this, Master Dingyi looked at Liu Zhengfeng in disbelief.
