The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!

I was overjoyed to see an old friend again.

Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, they didn't seem distant at all. This mountain god temple was just like the dilapidated temple they had in Jiaxing many years ago.

After carefully inquiring about Wang Jiuling's injuries, Cheng Ying was still worried and gave him some healing pills that she carried with her.

Yang Guo lit a fire to dispel the chill in the temple.

The three sat down, and Wang Jiuling introduced Yang Guo to Cheng Ying. Only then did Cheng Ying realize that this boy, who looked about the same age as Wang Jiuling, was actually Wang Jiuling's disciple.

Yang Guo still remembered the time he took off someone else's mask, and felt somewhat embarrassed.

However, Cheng Ying did not mention this.

"Yingmei, I haven't heard from you all these years. And how is Senior Huang Yaoshi?"

When Wang Jiuling inquired about Cheng Ying's past, Cheng Ying began to recount her story.

It turns out that she had been following Huang Yaoshi all these years, but she had no fixed abode and traveled around.

He has even been overseas.

When she returned from her apprenticeship not long ago and wanted to find Li Mochou to save her cousin, she heard that Li Mochou had been chased by Wang Jiuling and died in the Valley of Heartbreak.

Therefore, there was nowhere to inquire about Lu Wushuang.

Later, she thought that Wang Jiuling might know, so she decided to go to Zhongnan Mountain to find Wang Jiuling and also inquire about Lu Wushuang.

Something came up on the way and I was delayed.

These past few days, I embarked on the road to Zhongnan Mountain, and it just so happened that I met Wang Jiuling in Shangluo.

That's why he made his move at the crucial moment, using the "Azure Sea Tide Melody" to distract Ouyang Feng.

"No need to worry, Wushuang has now joined the Quanzhen Sect and is now a disciple of my Uncle-Master Sun Bu'er."

Wang Jiuling told Cheng Ying about Lu Wushuang's situation and reassured her.

"So you and my master were old acquaintances."

Yang Guo inadvertently noticed the purse at Cheng Ying's waist and blurted out without thinking:

"No wonder my master also has a pouch like that."

Cheng Ying took these words to heart, realizing that Brother Wang still kept her purse. She was overjoyed, but also a little shy.

Feeling helpless, I suggested going out for some fresh air.

The flute music was melodious. Cheng Ying stood outside the temple, and Wang Jiuling also went out.

At this moment, snowflakes began to fall from the sky. Cheng Ying looked up and found that the snowflakes were blown away by a faint breeze as soon as they got close.

Turning around, she found Wang Jiuling standing beside her, his Nine Yang Divine Skill protective energy blowing away the surrounding snow.

The two stood together, one playing the flute, the other listening quietly.

Yang Guo, who was inside the temple, felt a pang of resentment; he thought of his aunt.

I don't know what I did to upset her.

...

Snow stopped.

"Master! I...I have to go find my godfather!"

Yang Guo still decided to go find Ouyang Feng, but he was afraid that mentioning Ouyang Feng would upset his master.

Wang Jiuling was mortal enemies with that old poisoner, but he wouldn't implicate Yang Guo because of it.

Ouyang Feng is Ouyang Feng, and Yang Guo is Yang Guo.

He would certainly not say anything unpleasant at this time to put Yang Guo in a difficult position.

"Go ahead, but remember the Heroes' Gathering; your Uncle Guo is still waiting for you."

Yang Guo, you must have a clear judgment regarding right and wrong.

Yang Guo thought Wang Jiuling would reprimand him, but to his surprise, Wang Jiuling didn't mention Ouyang Feng at all.

Master Xin Dao truly has a clear sense of right and wrong.

"Master! Your disciple will go! Take care, Master!"

Yang Guo left, and Wang Jiuling watched his departing figure before letting out a sigh.

Cheng Ying stood beside him, without saying a word.

Soon, Wang Jiuling and Cheng Ying also left the mountain god temple to find Zhen Zhibing and the others.

Ouyang Feng has probably already disappeared somewhere.

Wang Jiuling and Cheng Ying inquired along the way and finally found Zhen Zhibing and his group at a manor outside the city two days later.

Both sides breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, although Lu Qingdu was seriously injured, he was not in mortal danger. With the care of his many junior brothers and sisters, he was able to walk today.

Wang Jiuling also told them about how Cheng Ying helped him.

Lu Wushuang was overjoyed to finally recognize Cheng Ying.

Good things come in pairs.

"Oh dear, Uncle-Master! Why am I so unlucky? I run into trouble wherever I go!"

It hurts so much!

Lu Qingdu was truly wronged.

His comical antics even amused Wang Jiuling. "Don't worry, I'll find Ouyang Feng and fight back for you."

Cheng Ying, who was standing to the side, also covered her mouth and chuckled.

Only Gongsun Lü'e, standing at the rear, felt a complex mix of emotions.

Gongsun Lü'e was naturally delighted that Wang Jiuling had returned safely, but she was at a loss for words when she saw the girl named Cheng Ying beside him.

Wang Jiuling possessed an extraordinary, even somewhat cold, demeanor. Even Gongsun Lü'e felt a sense of distance from him when they were together.

Perhaps Wang Jiuling didn't mean it, but this feeling is undeniable.

Gongsun Lü'e had known Wang Jiuling for a long time, but this was the first time she had seen Wang Jiuling get along so well with a woman.

The two of them stood together, one aloof and refined, the other gentle and dignified, yet there was no trace of awkwardness between them.

On the contrary, they had excellent teamwork.

The two didn't do anything intimate, but at first glance, it just felt like they were meant to be together.

Why am I so useless? If I could help Wang Jiuling today like Cheng Ying did, then I would be the one standing beside Wang Jiuling.

She had known Wang Jiuling for quite some time, but only today did she realize that she was still far from being as close to him as he was.

It was truly a case of the king having the will, but the goddess having no interest...

Gongsun Lü'e had never been so eager to practice her skills, even if it meant not resting.

After this incident, several days had passed before everyone left. Lu Qingdu recovered quickly thanks to Wang Jiuling's healing power.

Then they continued towards Dasheng Pass.

Leaving aside the acts of chivalry and justice encountered along the way.

That day, their group left Henan, and they were not far from Dasheng Pass.

In a small town.

"Cousin, why are you always dressed in a blue robe, just like my senior brother?"

"I feel like you two look like a couple!"

Lu Wushuang hopped and skipped.

She was extremely happy these days, not only did she no longer have to stay in Zhongnan Mountain, but she had also reunited with her cousin.

She just doesn't know how to keep her mouth shut; she says whatever comes to mind.

This immediately made Wang Jiuling and Cheng Ying feel awkward.

"Wushuang, don't talk nonsense!" Cheng Ying turned around and whispered to Lu Wushuang to stop talking.

Wang Jiuling turned his head and was taken aback.

Following his gaze, across the street, an elderly figure was seen walking through the crowd.

That figure quickly overlapped with the image of Patriarch Chongyang in Wang Jiuling's memory.

Wang Jiuling's expression immediately changed.

"You guys go first, we'll meet at Dashengguan!"

Without time to explain further, Wang Jiuling chased after the figure.

"Junior brother!"

Zhen Zhibing raised his hand, somewhat surprised.

Cheng Ying, who was standing nearby, reacted very quickly. She was very good at light footwork and also chased after Wang Jiuling.

"Master, you should go first!"
