Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 119 Changing Courts
Lan Fenghuang was grateful to Huang Sixi for saving her life and only hoped to repay him immediately.

She did not stay in the villa for long. She quickly said goodbye to Huang Sixi and prepared to return to the headquarters of the Five Poisons Sect to retrieve the missionary relics that Huang Sixi had specifically requested.

Before leaving, Huang Sixi sent her out of the village.

She smiled and asked, "Sir, are you afraid that I will just leave and never come back?"

When she first entered the manor, she was afraid that Ren Yingying would misunderstand her and did not dare to joke with Huang Sixi. Now that the corpse worms in her body have been released, she has no scruples anymore and says whatever she thinks.

Huang Sixi replied, "That's nothing. If I don't suffer a loss from you once, I won't be embarrassed to take advantage of you in the future."

Huang Sixi repeated to her what she had just said.

Lan Fenghuang found it very interesting and left with a smile on her face.

Ren Yingying accompanied Huang Sixi to see him off at the door.

She was so happy to hear Lan Fenghuang's fading laughter that she said, "Mr. Huang and Lan Fenghuang really hit it off right away."

She couldn't understand it. She and Huang Sixi had known each other longer, while Huang Sixi and Lan Fenghuang were meeting for the first time. Why was Huang Sixi so open with Lan Fenghuang, but so polite to her, as if there was a barrier between them?

"It's not like we hit it off right away."

Huang Sixi admitted that he felt like an old friend to Lan Fenghuang, but he added: "In fact, I have a connection with the Five Immortals Sect. Even if I didn't meet Sect Leader Lan today, I would go to the Five Immortals Sect headquarters to pay a visit in person when I have time in the future."

"I heard that Master Huang also has a legacy with the Beggars' Sect. Recently, Beggars' Sect disciples have been saying that you killed Zuo Lengchan using Beggars' Sect martial arts, which seems to be called 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing'."

Ren Yingying asked curiously, "Mr. Huang, your ancestors have connections with both good and evil."

Huang Sixi looked at her and said, "If we only count our martial arts background, I am also related to your Sun Moon Sect."

"Really?"

Ren Yingying blinked her eyes, looking unbelievable, but secretly she was expecting Huang Sixi to tell her the actual relationship.

Huang Sixi did not continue speaking.

Seeing Lan Fenghuang walking away, he turned around and wanted to return to the manor.

Ren Yingying stopped him and said, "The whole place smells like medicine. It's too stuffy to stay here. Mr. Huang, why don't we go to the top of the mountain to get some fresh air?"

This villa is built on the mountainside, several dozen feet away from the top of the mountain. There is a hiking trail in front of the villa.

Although it is the hot summer season now, the mountain is shaded by green trees and is not very sunny.

Ren Yingying wanted to talk to Huang Sixi alone without being heard by others.

Huang Sixi followed her to the top of the mountain and strolled around, saying, "Does your Sun Moon Divine Sect have a magical skill called "Star Absorbing Technique"?"

Ren Yingying's face was different: "The Star Absorbing Technique is a magical skill that has been passed down since ancient times, but since the death of the previous leader, this magical skill has been lost."

The previous leader was her father Ren Woxing.

She had always thought that Ren Woxing had passed away. When she heard Huang Sixi mention things related to Ren Woxing, she suddenly missed her father and her expression became a little unnatural.

Huang Sixi asked again: "Where did the "Star Absorbing Technique" originate from? Miss Ren, do you know?"

Ren Yingying hummed and nodded: "When I was young, I heard in the sect that the "Xingxu Dafa" was created by the "Xiaoyao Sect" during the Northern Song Dynasty. It was originally divided into two branches, "Beiming Shengong" and "Hua Gong Dafa". Later, it was passed down from the Dali Duan family and the Xingxiu Sect respectively, and then merged into one, becoming the current "Xingxu Dafa." "

When she was seven or eight years old, Dongfang Bubai attempted to usurp the throne. Before that, Ren Woxing was the leader.

As Ren Woxing's only daughter, she had been brought up by Ren Woxing since she was young and attended many large and small banquets in the sect. She had heard Ren Woxing talk about the origin of the "Star Absorbing Art" many times at the banquets and had kept it in mind.

When Huang Sixi saw that she knew about the Xiaoyao Sect, it became much easier for him to explain.

"The Beggars' Sect's 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms' was also passed down during the Northern Song Dynasty. It was almost lost, but was later learned by the head of the Xiaoyao Sect, who passed it on to the Beggars' Sect."

"Huh? How come the Beggars' Sect's martial arts were passed down by the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect?" Ren Yingying only knew the origin of the "Star Absorbing Art", and she knew nothing about the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing".

"At that time, only the leader of the Beggars' Sect knew the 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing'. For some reason, the leader went to settle in the land of the Northern Barbarians and could never return to the Central Plains. He did not want the Beggars' Sect's martial arts to be lost. It happened that he and the leader of the Happy Yao Sect were sworn brothers, so he entrusted the leader of the Happy Yao Sect to pass on the skills on to him." What Huang Sixi was talking about was the experience of Xiao Feng and Xu Zhu.

With this calculation, Huang Sixi's "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing" and the Sun and Moon Sect's "Star Absorbing Art" are indeed related to the Xiaoyao Sect.

After hearing the connection, Ren Yingying smiled dumbly: "Just now, Lan Fenghuang said that you, Mr. Huang, like to collect various martial arts relics. Are you trying to find out your origins with the various martial arts families and sects through these relics?"

Huang Sixi did not deny it. He felt that what Ren Yingying said was a more reasonable excuse to cover it up.

If someone asks him in the future what his purpose is in collecting treasures, he can answer like this.

Ren Yingying had been very puzzled before. Huang Sixi and Lan Fenghuang were meeting for the first time, so why was he so enthusiastic and even willing to pay any price to heal Lan Fenghuang's injury caused by the Three Corpses Brain Pill.

Now after hearing Huang Sixi's explanation, Ren Yingying understood that Huang Sixi was helping Lan Fenghuang out of nostalgia.

She didn't think about it any more and said with a smile: "The Sun Moon Sect has been passed down until now and has accumulated a lot of martial arts relics. When I return to Blackwood Cliff one day, if I can meet the Eastern Sect Leader, I will ask him for a few and give them to Mr. Huang."

With her status, she didn't need to steal things secretly. Even if she asked for them directly, Dongfang Bubai would reward her, because most of the treasures in the Sun Moon Sect were accumulated by her father and her father's ancestors, and Dongfang Bubai was just reaping the benefits.

Huang Sixi took the opportunity to ask her, "The old man and Patriarch Lan both call you 'Saint Aunt'. You were able to see Dongfang Bubai in person, so your status in the Sun Moon Sect is not low, right?"

Ren Yingying has not yet revealed her true identity to Huang Sixi.

She thought to herself, in the future, Master Huang will help treat people in the sect, and there will be many people talking, and sooner or later the Saint Lady's background will be leaked. Instead of letting others say it, I might as well explain it to Master Huang now.

She no longer concealed her origins and told Huang Sixi that she was the daughter of the previous leader.

"The Eastern Sect Leader thought I was the daughter of the previous Sect Leader, so he almost always granted my requests. But that was a few years ago. I have hardly seen him in recent years. This time, I accompanied Lan Fenghuang to Black Wood Cliff to ask for medicine, but I was not sure."

When Ren Yingying was in the Sun and Moon Sect, she was treated like a princess by the other sect members. They were in awe of her and no one dared to cross her path. She was also used to being dignified and cold to others.

Although she looks reserved, she is actually full of passion.

At least she never acted like a saint in front of Huang Sixi.

She smiled and said, "Mr. Huang, you suppressed the outbreak of corpse worms for Lan Fenghuang, so she no longer needs to go to Blackwood Cliff to seek medicine. This has also fulfilled a wish for me and has not made me break my promise."

She introduced Huang Sixi to live in seclusion here, just wanting to provide Huang Sixi with some help within his ability. As a result, Huang Sixi first treated Lao Bu Si and then treated Lan Fenghuang, which solved a lot of her problems.

The key point is that Huang Sixi is an excellent doctor, but he only gives her face and treats the patients according to the person she designates.

The more people in the sect Huang Sixi treats in the future, the higher her reputation in the sect will surely be. To be honest, she may not care about fame, after all, she is already a saint with a prominent status. She is happy that Huang Sixi values her.

But Huang Sixi actually had other reasons for doing this, and it was not convenient for him to confess to her.

Huang Sixi explained the pros and cons to her first: "The Three Corpses Brain Pill is very toxic. I can save Patriarch Lan, but I may not be able to save others. If similar patients come to me in the future, I may kill them. Miss Ren, don't make promises easily."

Ren Yingying said, "I often meet Lan Fenghuang and we have a good relationship, so I agreed to ask for medicine for her. I definitely won't make any promises for anyone else!"

She felt that even if Huang Sixi killed someone with her treatment, she would not be responsible, because all the evil people who came to her for help had abnormal corpse worms or were about to have an attack. Even if Huang Sixi did not treat them, the risk of their death was very high.

As long as Huang Sixi could save one of these people, it would be enough.

However, Huang Sixi was only staying at the villa to recuperate and could leave at any time.

If Huang Sixi decides to settle down in Zhengdao in the future, let alone inviting Huang Sixi to treat her injuries, Ren Yingying feels that it will be difficult for her to meet Huang Sixi at that time.

Ren Yingying thought of this. She tried to ask, "How long will it take for Master Huang to recover from his injury?"

Huang Sixi said: "It doesn't have to take too long, but I have to treat the old girl, so it may take several months."

Ren Yingying asked again: "After the old lady's illness is cured, does Mr. Huang plan to return to Hengshan?"

Huang Sixi shook his head: "The Hengshan Sect is full of nuns, it's not convenient for me to live there, but I haven't decided where to go yet."

After hearing this, Ren Yingying already understood what was going on.

After leaving the villa that day, she returned to Luoyang to live.

Half a month later, she learned that Lan Fenghuang had returned from the Five Poison Sect's headquarters.

This time, Lan Fenghuang did not travel light, but led more than a hundred followers and brought dozens of trucks filled with treasures from the Five Poison Sect, which she intended to give to Huang Sixi as medical fees.

Ren Yingying first sent Green Bamboo Old Man to intercept Lan Fenghuang and let him stay in Luoyang City for one night.

The next day, Ren Yingying and Lan Fenghuang went to the villa together.

They arrived just in time for lunch.

Most of Lan Fenghuang's followers were women from Yunnan and Yunnan, and they took over the arrangements for the banquet at the villa.

Before the banquet started, Ren Yingying, Green Bamboo Old Man and the old man waited at the banquet table.

Huang Sixi stayed in the backyard room to check out the treasures given by Lan Fenghuang.

These treasures were packed in more than ten boxes.

Huang Sixi smelled the aroma of wine first, and asked Lan Fenghuang: "Is there any wine in these boxes?"

"Yes, it's filled with 'Five Treasures Honey Wine'."

Lan Fenghuang casually opened a box, which contained eight jars of wine.

She opened one of the wine jars, took out a spoon and a wine bowl, and poured a bowl for Huang Sixi. The wine was very clear, pure white like spring water.

Huang Sixi said, "What's so special about this wine? If it's just a fine wine, why not bring it to the banquet and invite Miss Ren to taste it together?"

Lan Fenghuang immediately introduced: "Young Master, this is a medicinal wine brewed according to the secret recipe handed down by the Five Immortals Sect. The medicinal materials require five kinds of small poisonous insects, and each insect takes more than ten years to cultivate. There are also dozens of exotic flowers and herbs in the wine. Those who drink this medicinal wine will not suffer from any disease, and their internal strength will increase by more than ten years."

"You actually use poisonous insects to make wine. Will you be poisoned after drinking it?"

"The five insects used in winemaking and the dozens of kinds of nectar are in a mutually exclusive relationship. When the five insects are added to the wine, their toxicity naturally disappears, so there is absolutely no poison in the wine."

"Can it really increase your internal strength by more than ten years?"

"Then you have to finish drinking all eight jars of wine."

In the past, the Five Poison Sect had presented Five Treasures Medicinal Wine to the Sun and Moon Sect as a tribute, and Lan Fenghuang had also sent some to Ren Yingying, but not many people liked to drink it. The main reason was that the amount of wine Lan Fenghuang sent was relatively small each time, and it did not help to increase internal strength. People were also wary of wine made from poisonous insects, and the taste of the wine was too strange, so naturally they were unwilling to drink it.

Huang Sixi picked up the wine bowl and sipped it. It was very spicy when it entered his throat, and the aftertaste was quite strong. He estimated that it would take him several days to finish a jar. However, he valued his internal strength, so he would persist even if it took him several months.

He asked Lan Fenghuang to seal the wine jar again, and then asked, "Where are the Five Immortals' heirlooms? Did you bring them all?"

"Please look over here, sir!"

Lan Fenghuang opened another box, inside of which were five worn-out items: a rope, pliers, a bone flute, a pottery bottle, and silk gloves.

"This is a tool left behind by the first founder of the Five Immortals Sect. It is specially used to catch poisonous insects. It can't even be considered a weapon, but it is the oldest relic of the Five Immortals Sect."

Due to their age, the five instruments of the founder have been severely decayed. Except for the bone flute which still appears to be intact, the other four are in tatters.

The five weapons of the founder of the Five Poisons Sect have been kept in the warehouse for decades with no one interested in them. If Huang Sixi hadn't specifically asked for the ancient relics, Lan Fenghuang might not have even taken a second look at them.

In Lan Fenghuang's eyes, these five instruments are worthless and only have symbolic significance.

Huang Sixi pointed at the bone flute, his eyes shining with wonder: "Let me see this flute!"

Seeing that Huang Sixi was interested, Lan Fenghuang immediately took out the flute and presented it to him.

Huang Sixi saw that the flute was as thick as a finger and about a foot long. There was a flute text flashing on it: "A famous relic: Contains the Five Poison Sect's martial arts "Snake Exorcism Method". If the Five Poison Sect breaks away from the Sun and Moon Sect, it can read and inherit it."

Huang Sixi mastered the art of bee training. When he was in Hengshan, he made a bamboo tube for Yilin that could produce a buzzing sound to help Yilin control the bee colony.

This bone flute is obviously of the same nature as the bamboo tube and is specifically used to control a swarm of snakes. Snakes move slowly and are not as powerful as a swarm of bees in attacking, but they are a powerful supplement to auxiliary combat.

There are also many strange and exotic snakes in the world that can quickly improve internal strength.

Guo Jing in the Legend of the Condor Heroes era drank snake blood, and Yang Guo in the Return of the Condor Heroes era ate snake gall. They both increased their internal strength dramatically by eating exotic snakes.

After Huang Sixi learns the "Snake Driving Method", he can also improve his cultivation by finding strange snakes.

But what should be done to make the Five Poisons Sect separate from the Sun and Moon Sect?
Huang Sixi asked Lan Fenghuang: "Why did you join the Sun Moon Sect?"

"It wasn't that I wanted to join. It was the Sun Moon Divine Sect who sent people to find me and force me to join. Half of the ten elders of the Divine Sect were present. If I dared to refuse, the Five Immortal Sect would definitely be destroyed."

Lan Fenghuang's joining the sect was a temporary measure, but also a helpless move.

She knew that she was outnumbered and could not fight against the Sun Moon Divine Sect. If the news that she had released the Three Corpses Brain Pill leaked out in the future, the Sun Moon Divine Sect would definitely force her to continue taking the pill.

She would never let her life be controlled by the Sun Moon Cult again.

Before coming here, she had already made up her mind to leave the Sun Moon Divine Sect: "Sir, I have gotten rid of the threat of the Three Corpses Brain Pill. I don't plan to work for the Sun Moon Divine Sect anymore. I plan to follow you in the future."

Huang Sixi asked her, "I have no fixed place to live, why are you following me?"

Lan Fenghuang opened more than ten boxes one by one, and the room instantly flashed with jewels.

"I will follow you, sir, and I will definitely serve you."

Lan Fenghuang smiled and said, "I brought all the property of the Five Immortals Sect here. Look, my lord. These gold, silver and jewels are enough to build you a big villa, or even a sect!"

She bowed again and said, "If you like to travel around the world, I will follow you. Anyway, I only obey you, but..."

"But what?"

"If the Sun Moon Divine Sect gives me orders to do something in the future, please go and negotiate with the Sun Moon Divine Sect and inform them that the Blue Phoenix and the Five Immortal Sect have changed their allegiance!"

After Lan Fenghuang expressed her attitude, she looked at Huang Sixi eagerly, waiting for Huang Sixi's response.

She thought Huang Sixi would take a long time to weigh the pros and cons.

Huang Sixi agreed immediately: "Master Lan, if you plan to leave the Sun Moon Sect, I will definitely help you. If the Sun Moon Sect harasses you again in the future, you can come to me at any time and I will send them back home!"

Huang Sixi pointed at more than ten wooden boxes and said, "I told you a long time ago that I have a connection with the Five Immortals Sect. I don't need you to give me your property, let alone serve me. Just go back to Yundian and manage the Five Immortals Sect!"

When Lan Fenghuang heard Huang Sixi's answer, she smiled brightly: "But managing the Five Immortals Sect is not as fun as serving you, young master. Young master, there are other ancestral relics in the box. Take your time to look at them. I'm going to the hall to entertain the guests!"
