The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!
Chapter 38 Zhao Zhijing's Triumph
"Master, do you think Lu Qingdu will come back?"
Inside the room, Wang Jiuling was meditating to cultivate his spirit when Yang Guo asked curiously.
Wang Jiuling didn't open his eyes. "How loyal can someone like Zhao Zhijing, that scoundrel, be?"
"It's all for profit; once things become unfavorable, they'll scatter like leaves in the wind."
Wang Jiuling was very vengeful.
Zhao Zhijing has targeted him more than once or twice over the years. Now that Wang Jiuling is highly skilled in martial arts and has a high enough status, he will take this opportunity to completely destroy this villain.
But simply crippling him isn't enough; it's best to alienate those around him and completely cut off his path of resistance.
Upon hearing this, Yang Guo nodded in agreement.
In his eyes, apart from Wang Jiuling, there were few good people in Quanzhen. If it weren't for Wang Jiuling's support, he would have suffered countless bullying here.
Just then, Wang Jiuling opened his eyes and smiled.
"They're here!"
Yang Guo turned around and found someone knocking on the door.
Yang Guo opened the door, and Lu Qingdu looked around furtively. When he saw the door open, he slipped inside. Yang Guo was surprised, but Lu Qingdu didn't care about him.
As soon as he entered, Lu Qingdu knelt down in front of Wang Jiuling.
"Master Uncle, save me!"
Wang Jiuling gestured for Yang to go over and keep watch, then got up and helped Lu Qingdu to get up.
"Have you figured it out?"
After Lu Qingdu stood up, there was still a trace of lingering fear in his eyes.
"Master Uncle! This disciple does not wish to be a mere scholar, but wishes to abandon darkness and embrace the light, only... only fear..."
Wang Jiuling's smile remained unchanged, as if he had seen through everything long ago.
"Are you afraid that if you tell those things, you'll be punished?"
Lu Qingdu remained silent, but Wang Jiuling patted him on the shoulder. "Once things get beyond repair, even if you back out, you'll still be complicit with Zhao Zhijing!"
"Things haven't gotten to that point yet. By doing this, you're abandoning darkness for light, and that's a meritorious deed."
"They're different!"
Lu Qingdu looked at Wang Jiuling's eyes and nodded.
"Uncle-Master! This is what happened!"
Lu Qingdu began to tell Wang Jiuling about Zhao Zhijing's conspiracy, and only then did Wang Jiuling realize that Zhao Zhijing had been plotting for a long time.
The incident stemmed from rumors circulating within the Quanzhen School.
It is said that Zhen Zhibing is to be appointed as the chief disciple.
Actually, the rumor initially spread very little, and most people didn't pay any attention to it, but Zhao Zhijing, being petty, remembered it.
He was also worried about losing power.
Until a month ago, Zhao Zhijing came back from a trip down the mountain, and things changed.
"Uncle-Master! Zhao Zhijing ordered me to steal that sword tassel! And..."
Lu Qingdu explained his actions clearly, and of course, he didn't forget to portray himself as a "good person" who endured humiliation and hardship.
Wang Jiuling didn't care; all he wanted was the truth and Lu Qingdu's betrayal.
This is enough.
"So that's how it is..." After listening to Lu Qingdu's explanation, Wang Jiuling suddenly understood.
Wang Jiuling smiled and patted Lu Qingdu on the shoulder.
"Good job! You did a great job!"
"Since I said I would ensure your success, I will not go back on my word. Go back now, and don't let Zhao Zhijing notice anything amiss. Come find me again after dark!"
"Thank you, Uncle-Master! Thank you, Uncle-Master!"
Late at night, in Chongyang Palace.
"What did you say? Zhijing is a traitor?"
Ma Yu stared in shock at Wang Jiuling and Lu Qingdu, who had secretly come to see him.
Wang Jiuling nodded.
"Thanks to my junior disciple Qingdu for discovering the conspiracy in time, he went undercover by Senior Brother Zhao's side and has been gathering evidence!"
"I have risked everything to come and inform my disciple today!"
Lu Qingdu nodded vigorously, his heart filled with joy.
Good uncle! Good uncle! You promised not to pursue his mistakes, yet you actually spoke up for him like this in front of the sect leader!
"Yes, Master Grandmaster! I am but a humble disciple with little influence, but fortunately, Uncle Jiuling is discerning and has given me this opportunity!"
Ma Yu looked shocked, mentally reviewing what the two had just said.
First, rumors caused Zhao Zhijing to become dissatisfied. After returning from the mountain, he asked Lu Qingdu to steal the sword tassel and then asked Lu Qingdu to deliver a letter to the mysterious person.
Immediately afterwards, the bandit incident occurred, Zhen Zhibing was accused of colluding with the enemy, and then Zhao Zhijing used a Mongolian dagger to slander Zhen Zhibing.
Think about it again, if Zhen Zhibing gets into trouble, wouldn't Zhao Zhijing be the one who gains the most power?
Recalling the whole incident, Ma Yu narrowed his eyes and nodded.
It matches...it all matches!
"Master Master, I have a plan that will make Senior Brother Zhao expose himself."
"We can keep quiet for now and set a trap. If Senior Brother Zhao is indeed colluding with the Mongols, he will fall for it, and we can catch him red-handed, which will convince everyone."
"Even if it isn't, it won't affect the overall situation!"
Ma Yu paused.
"Oh? What's the plan? Tell me in detail!"
Wang Jiuling glanced at Lu Qingdu beside him and whispered his plan.
"..."
"..."
"Most importantly, it's the authority of the Headmaster that's needed to make Senior Brother Zhao confess!"
Ma Yu listened and couldn't help but smile and nod, looking at Wang Jiuling with satisfaction.
Even after finding out the truth, this child did not suggest arresting the person directly, but instead thought of arresting them in public to appease the crowd.
That's really thoughtful and considerate.
"Alright! Jiuling, we'll do as you say!"
The tranquility of Quanzhen was broken once again early the next morning when the Seven Masters of Quanzhen questioned Zhen Zhibing at Chongyang Palace.
The questioning was not made public, but people speculated that Zhen Zhibing's situation was not very good.
Now, more and more monsters and demons are emerging.
Some people started talking, saying that they had seen through Zhen Zhibing's problems long ago, while others were eager to visit Zhao Zhijing, hoping to curry favor with him in advance.
The entire Quanzhen School was rife with undercurrents.
However, at the same time, one person also attracted the attention of others, and that was Wang Jiuling.
It is said that Wang Jiuling was sent down the mountain early in the morning to continue investigating the matter.
Martial arts training ground.
Zhao Zhijing sat on a recliner, watching a group of fourth-generation disciples practice swordsmanship in the distance.
He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and marveled at the beauty of life.
"Master! Wang Jiuling went down the mountain to investigate. I hope he didn't find out anything?"
Lu Qingdu massaged Zhao Zhijing's shoulders while speaking softly.
Zhao Zhijing, however, was dismissive.
"Heh! Investigate?"
"Don't tell me there are no clues. Even if I tell him the truth now, what evidence does he have?"
If you want to destroy a person, first make them mad.
At this moment, Zhao Zhijing was riding high on his success. With Zhen Zhibing about to fall from power, he wondered who would be able to threaten him in the future.
At the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
At this moment, Wang Jiuling was leading a burly farmer back home.
"Young Taoist priest! You promised that if I acted along with you, you'd have to give me that much silver afterward!"
The farmer touched the bulging money bag on his chest and shouted.
Wang Jiuling nodded with a smile.
"Don't worry, I won't go back on my word! Have you memorized those few Mongolian phrases I told you to recite?"
The farmer patted his chest confidently.
"Don't worry! I've been practicing all morning, I've already memorized it!"
"Alright! Get ready!" Wang Jiuling saw that they were not far from the Quanzhen Sect's mountain gate, so he took out a rope and a black hood.
The farmer chuckled and told Wang Jiuling to tie him up and then put the hood on him.
"Act well! Don't give yourself away!"
Wang Jiuling gave a final few words of advice, then "escorted" the farmer to the mountain gate.
