Chapter 87 Showdown: Taking Control of Mount Hua!

"Since Liu Zhengfeng has already chosen to retire from the martial arts world and no longer concern himself with its affairs, according to the rules of the martial arts world, you still want to harm his wife and children."

Or do you not have any family?

Ning Zhongze flicked his long sword, blood dripping onto the ground as he stared at Shi Dengda and asked coldly.

When Shi Dengda saw Ning Zhongze's lightning-fast gaze, he trembled and cautiously raised the Five Sacred Mountains Token in his hand, saying, "This is my master..."

"Zuo Lengchan, tell him to come to Mount Hua to find me!"

Ning Zhongze turned to Liu Zhengfeng and said, "You wash your hands. Let's see who can stop you today."

But let me make this clear first: I don't care about your past collusion with the Demonic Sect or anything like that. After you wash your hands today, you can't get involved in any Jianghu affairs anymore.

Otherwise, don't blame me for making my sword too sharp.

Liu Zhengfeng comforted his wife and children, and upon hearing Ning Zhongze's words, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your help, Lady Ning. It is only natural! If I, Liu Zhengfeng, were to break this promise, I would not need Lady Ning's sword; I would rather commit suicide before my ancestors."

"Hmm. Do you have any other objections?"

Ning Zhongze scanned the room, and those whose eyes met hers couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to meet her gaze.

Even Ding Mian and the others who helped Fei Bin up did not dare to meet Ning Zhongze's gaze.

Stendhal shouted, "Could it be that Lady Ning is also someone who cannot distinguish between good and evil? Liu Zhengfeng colluded with Qu Yang, the elder protector of the demonic sect, which is not the work of righteous people? Who knows how many righteous people are involved..."

"Stop! Your sect leader secretly harbors members of evil sects to do his bidding and harms their families. Is that what the righteous sects do? Supporting other sects and factions, causing divisions, is that also what the righteous sects do?"

Is it a righteous thing to plant spies in other sects?

Laudenau, now I'm giving you a chance.

"Either come out here and explain yourself, or you'll be treated with the most severe punishment for a traitor to the sect."

All eyes immediately turned to the Huashan Sect, focusing on Lao Denuo, since Lao Denuo was Yue Buqun's second disciple and had a certain reputation in the martial arts world.

When Laudenuo saw that everyone's eyes were on him, he began to feel nervous, especially his master's gaze, which made his mouth dry.

"This will be your last chance, so think it over carefully. I don't blame you for what you did for Zuo Lengchan before. You are a loyal person, have a good relationship with your fellow disciples, and haven't made any serious mistakes."

If you explain things clearly, everything will be fine.

Ning Zhongze's gaze fell on Lao Denuo, whose face was pale. Looking at the miserable Songshan Sect members, Lao Denuo slowly walked out as if he had lost his soul.

He suddenly knelt before Ning Zhongze, "This disciple is guilty! I have failed my master and mistress's teachings!"

After apologizing, he began to explain that his original identity was Zuo Lengchan's third disciple, who was ordered by Zuo Lengchan to come to Mount Hua as an inside agent to transmit information about Mount Hua's development and some of its actions to the Songshan Sect through various means.

They also need to disrupt the Huashan Sect's specific plans at crucial moments.

Furthermore, Laudenau also mentioned that Zuo Lengchan recently helped him find the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique and the Purple Cloud Manual.

Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun's face turned ashen, and he roared, "I'm going to clean house today!"

Linghu Chong was his favorite disciple, but Lao Denuo was the disciple he trusted the most because of his calm and steady personality. Who knew he would trust such an ungrateful wretch!

Yue Buqun suddenly drew his long sword, his face turning purple, and transformed into a phantom as he stabbed at Lao Denuo, who was kneeling on the ground.

"Bang!"

A long sword blocked his path; he forcefully deflected it. "Junior sister, this..."

Yue Buqun was somewhat incredulous, because it was his junior sister and wife, Ning Zhongze, who had deflected his sword.

Ning Zhongze spoke up, "I told him that as long as he explains things clearly, and hasn't committed any major mistakes yet, I will judge his guilt myself!"

"Master Liu, aren't you going to wash your hands?"

"Yes, Lady Ning!"

Upon hearing Ning Zhongze's address, Liu Zhengfeng quickly dipped his hands into the basin, thus completing the handwashing ceremony.

But no one cared whether Liu Zhengfeng washed his hands or not; all attention was on Ning Zhongze, and everyone anticipated that a storm would break out in the martial arts world.

Whether it was the actions of the Songshan Sect or Ning Zhongze stepping forward.

Or rather, Ning Zhongze is the center of this storm.

……

After the Golden Basin Washing Hands Ceremony, countless storms swept through the martial arts world. First, Liu Zhengfeng colluded with Qu Yang, a protector of the Demonic Sect, which naturally aroused righteous indignation among many righteous people.

Then the Songshan Sect came to Liu Zhengfeng's door, trying to force him to submit by threatening the entire Liu family. Many righteous people were naturally indignant, after all, as Ning Zhongze had said, "Don't you have any family?"

"Don't let your family suffer the consequences"—this saying encapsulates the unwritten rules of the underworld.

Moreover, when Lady Ning saved the entire Liu family, many righteous people applauded. However, when Lady Ning protected Liu Zhengfeng and helped him retire from the martial arts world, they were filled with righteous indignation and even beat Ning Zhongze into becoming a demonic person.

Then Liu Zhengfeng came out and said that Qu Yang had prepared countless Black Blood Divine Needles in the back room to prevent him from getting into trouble, but they were all confiscated by Lady Ning, who used them to acupuncture points and threw them outside. Otherwise, many of the righteous people present would have suffered.

Many members of the evil cult were filled with righteous indignation, while righteous people applauded.

As a result of this back and forth, Ning Zhongze's reputation was mixed, but her martial arts skills were widely praised.

She single-handedly suppressed Sanbao, sealed off Qu Yang, the protector of the Demonic Sect, and even directly told Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, to come find her.

Zuo Lengchan's actions were also criticized by the martial arts world. The martial arts world, which had been peaceful for a long time, or rather, which was just a struggle between good and evil, was now filled with many more storms.

At this moment, everyone who returned to the Huashan Sect went to the Huashan Sect's council hall.

The person sitting in the main seat was not Yue Buqun, but Ning Zhongze.

"Summon Feng Buping to see me. If he doesn't, don't blame me for storming the Sword Sect!"

Ning Zhongze looked at Laudenuo.

"Yes!" Laudenuo naturally knew why; Feng Buping was a split faction supported by Zuo Lengchan within the Huashan Sect.

"Madam, was that auspicious turtle phenomenon you orchestrated the other day?"

Yue Buqun wasn't stupid. He suddenly remembered that the day the auspicious divine tortoise appeared was the same day he had argued with Ning Zhongze.

At that time, Ning Zhongze didn't know where to go; she was simply focused on the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique and therefore didn't...

"Yes. I am blessed by the gods and immortals, and now I know the cause and effect, which has greatly increased my strength!"

Ning Zhongze said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan asked in surprise, "Mother, you've become an immortal too?"

Not yet.

Ning Zhongze looked at Linghu Chong, who had already returned.

"Come here and kneel down!"

Linghu Chong was completely bewildered, because the massacre of Liu Zhengfeng's entire family had not occurred, and he had no idea what happened afterward.

After rescuing Yilin from Tian Boguang, he went to the Liu residence, but the matter was already over, so he hurriedly returned.

Ning Zhongze recounted all the recent events that had happened to Linghu Chong, as if they were still vivid in her mind, leaving Linghu Chong stunned. "This disciple knows his mistake!"

He thought to himself, "Could it be that my teacher's wife has really been blessed by the gods? She actually told me everything that happened to her."

Since the Golden Basin Gathering, Yue Buqun, who had remained silent, turned pale again upon hearing that Linghu Chong had colluded with the Demonic Sect and fraternized with lecherous thieves.

Ning Zhongze said, "If Tian Boguang comes again later, kill him."

"But……"

Linghu Chong felt that Tian Boguang, although a bad guy with a clean reputation, was extremely loyal and had a touch of heroism, so asking him to kill was a bit difficult for him.

Ning Zhongze spoke up: "Tian Boguang has tainted the innocence of so many women. You also have a mother and a junior sister! Have you thought about this? If it is a battle between good and evil, it is only a battle of morality."

But lecherous thieves specifically target women. Even if he was a man of loyalty and honor, and even if he was a respected elder from a prominent family, he deserved to die!

Linghu Chong took a deep breath. "Yes!"

"I won't interfere with your free-spirited nature and your indifference to right and wrong, but if you associate with lecherous scoundrels, don't blame your master's wife for being impolite."

"But I can't catch up with him."

"Go to the training pavilion when the time comes; there are the martial arts techniques I've set out for you. Go and learn them."

Ning Zhongze rubbed her temples. "Where's Feng Buping?"

"Junior Sister, why are you so bold? You even attacked the Sword Sect?" At this moment, a figure walked in. It was Feng Buping. Since the Sword Sect lost the last sword qi competition, the Sword Sect had almost gone into seclusion. Only now has it gradually come out to be active again.

Feng Buping, relying on his self-created Gale Sword, joined forces with the Songshan Sect, with whom he had established a relationship in previous years, and planned to become the true leader of the Huashan Sect.

Who knew Ning Zhongze would suddenly appear?

Ning Zhongze stared at Feng Buping, "I will only make one move. If you can withstand it, you will take control of the Huashan Sect from now on. If you cannot, the Sword and Qi Sects will merge once again!"

"I will be the sect leader, and you and Yue Buqun will each be the deputy sect leaders!"

Feng Buping frowned, and even laughed in exasperation, "Junior sister, although your strength has greatly improved, it may be a bit difficult for you to defeat me in one move."

"You just need to say yes or no!"

"Of course, and I've long wanted to learn from my junior sister."

"good!"

The next moment, Ning Zhongze's longsword suddenly let out a clear whistle, and she thrust it out sharply, aiming straight at Chong Feng Buping's chest. It was truly as swift as lightning and as powerful as thunder.

Feng Buping was taken aback. He drew his Gale Sword to try and block, but the terrifying force instantly deflected his sword, and the tip of the sword was already at Feng Buping's throat.

"how."

Ning Zhong sheathed his sword, for under absolute power, any skill would be at a disadvantage.

Feng Buping was shocked; Ning Zhongze's strength had actually increased to such an extent!

He felt utterly devastated. How could he possibly take charge of Mount Hua under these circumstances? But he couldn't help but say, "There has never been a saying that a woman should take charge of Mount Hua."

"The leaders of the Emei sect in the martial arts world for generations have all been women, and the leader of the Hengshan sect is also a woman. How can a woman not be in charge of a sect?"

If my title is not legitimate, then I'll ask my senior martial uncle to bestow it upon me!

"Uncle-Master?"

……

When the group arrived at the Cliff of Repentance, Ning Zhongze gathered her inner energy and shouted, "Please, Uncle Feng, come out and meet us."

The sound was like thunder, like the sound of a bell, and it spread throughout the entire back mountain. Everyone was even more surprised that Ning Zhongze's true energy was so profound!

"You little brat! How did you know I was here, and how is your inner energy so powerful?!"

At this moment, a figure stepped out from the air.
