All Heavens: Yin Zhiping, a Demon with a Daoist Heart!

Hua Zheng exclaimed with delight.

Dust billowed across the pasture as a large herd of horses neighed and galloped about, with herders chasing after them relentlessly.

A red figure darted into the herd of horses, much larger than the ordinary ones, with blood-red fur, and was exceptionally magnificent.

It was the little red horse that Hua Zheng had mentioned.

The horse galloped into the herd, biting and kicking wildly, causing the herd to scatter and flee.

The herdsmen tried to catch it with their lassos, but it evaded them every time they tried.

The little red horse galloped up the hillside, neighing loudly and kicking its hind legs as if mocking the herdsmen, which angered them so much that they stomped their feet repeatedly.

"Good horse!"

The third of the Seven Monsters, Horse King God Han Baoju, called out, his eyes shining, and immediately rushed forward.

He was an exceptional horseman and an unparalleled expert in judging horses, making him a renowned horse breeder.

"Truly a magnificent steed!"

Han Baoju rushed forward, leaped up, and suddenly grabbed the little red horse's mane.

The little red horse let out a long neigh and suddenly galloped off. Han Baoju strained his hands, trying to climb onto the horse's back.

"what!"

This scene caused everyone to stand up and stare intently.

Ke Zhen'e, who was blind, only asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Guo Jing said, "Master! Third Master is going to tame that red horse!"

Before he could finish speaking...

Just as Han Baoju was about to sit on the little red horse, the horse suddenly accelerated, and Han Baoju lost his grip and fell to the ground.

"Hey!" He watched the little red horse gallop away in the distance, filled with regret.

Such a fine horse, if we cannot obtain it, it will truly be a lifelong regret.

Seeing that the little red horse was moving incredibly fast and had already disappeared into the wilderness, Han Baoju sighed repeatedly.

The herdsman stepped forward to help him up and advised, "This is not a horse, it is a dragon from heaven, which mortals cannot subdue."

Han Baoju retorted irritably, "A horse is a horse. What's this talk of a dragon transforming into a horse? If it comes again, I'll definitely subdue it!"

The herdsman said, "This little red horse comes every few days. We tried to lasso it before, but we must have angered it. Every time it comes, it disturbs our herd."

Han Baoju nodded: "It's good that you're coming again!"

He dusted himself off, walked up to the crowd, and said with an embarrassed smile, "Indeed a fine horse, but we missed a good opportunity."

After offering a few words of advice, the others began teaching Guo Jing his moves.

Yin Zhiping had been watching from the sidelines, and seeing the little red horse's unparalleled stamina, he secretly felt a stirring in his heart.

I didn't have a chance just now, but if I encounter this little red horse again, I'll definitely give it a try.

Hua Zheng then said, "Brother Taoist, this horse often goes to the royal tent, and many warriors have tried to capture it but failed. Why don't you come with me to the royal tent and stay for a few days? If you encounter this horse, you're sure you can subdue it!"

Yin Zhiping nodded.

So Yin Zhiping continued to practice with Guo Jing. Guo Jing didn't learn much of the Yue Maiden Sword Technique, but Yin Zhiping memorized it all from beginning to end.

If he could learn all of Han Xiaoying's sword moves and then use the system to improve them, he might be able to directly grasp the true essence of the Yue Nu Sword. Yin Zhiping had high hopes for this.

However, Guo Jing learns slowly. If this continues, he won't be able to learn all of Han Xiaoying's sword moves, let alone in three months, even in thirty years.

Yin Zhiping thought to himself, "If I were to ask Han Xiaoying for private lessons while I'm the sparring partner, she probably wouldn't be able to refuse. But if I want to learn the essence of her Yue Maiden Sword technique, she probably won't teach me; I'll need to increase her favor with me."

He had a plan in mind: first, he would improve Han Xiaoying's favor, then ask Han Xiaoying for advice on the Yue Maiden Sword Technique every now and then, and at night he would practice the Nine Yin Manual with Mei Chaofeng.

After three months of this, your martial arts skills will surely be improved!

It was evening.

After the Six Eccentrics finished teaching Guo Jing, their faces were tense and they were displeased.

After a day of painstaking instruction, Guo Jing's Yue Maiden Sword Technique made little progress, prompting the Six Heroes to repeatedly reprimand him.

At this moment, three riders came from the edge of the grassland and rushed to the front. It turned out to be Hua Zheng's three elder brothers, Chagatai, Ögedei, and Tolui. They knew that Hua Zheng had suddenly run out to look for Guo Jing, so they came straight this way.

Hua Zheng was reluctant to leave and lingered for a while before saying to Yin Zhiping, "Brother Taoist, you must come to the royal tent. Father Khan and I will entertain you!"

When Tuolei and the others realized that it was Yin Zhiping who had saved Hua Zheng, they thanked him repeatedly and said they would bring gifts the next day. Yin Zhiping refused them all, his attitude cold, which made Tuolei and the others think that they had been impolite.

After the four people left.

Han Xiaoying stepped forward and said, "Zhiping, Princess Huazheng clearly admires you. Why not stay under the Khan's command and become a prince consort? You could achieve great things that way!"

Yin Zhiping smiled and said, "I am a monk, how could I speak of being a prince consort? Besides... the Mongols and Han Chinese will be enemies sooner or later. If I were to join Temujin's army, and the Mongol cavalry were to march south in the future, would I turn my sword against my own people?"

The six oddballs looked at each other in bewilderment.

Guo Jing said, "Brother Yin, the Great Khan said that the Mongols and Han Chinese are one family, and both have suffered humiliation at the hands of the Jurchens. Half of the Song Dynasty's territory fell into the hands of the Jurchens, and the Mongols were no different. How can they be called enemies?"

Yin Zhiping said, "Temujin has been waging war in recent years, annexing many tribes on the grasslands. His cattle and horses have multiplied, his population has grown, and his troops are disciplined. Today, I have observed his three sons, and they all possess great ambition. In the future, Mongolia will surely become powerful, and it is only a matter of time before it destroys the Jin and attacks the Song."

Upon hearing this, Guo Jing and the Six Freaks suddenly realized that they had only thought the Golden Dog was powerful and invincible, but they had never imagined that the Mongols would become so powerful. They were shocked and pondered the future.

Yin Zhiping stood silently, also pondering the future.

He saved Hua Zheng, which is a good thing. If we make plans based on this, we may be able to save millions of Han people in the future.

However, he hasn't figured out the details yet.

Ke Zhen'e said, "Good boy, you have foresight and care about your country, which is truly rare."

He thought to himself, "It's a pity this child isn't my disciple. If I could teach a disciple like Yin Zhiping, I would have no regrets in this life."

The skilled scholar Zhu Cong stepped forward and said, "Zhiping, Qingming Festival is here, we need to go sweep our fifth brother's grave, let's call it a day."

Yin Zhiping said, "The name of Laughing Buddha is widely known, and my master has also praised him many times. I am willing to go with him to sweep his tomb."

"good!"

The six oddballs cheered in unison, their eyes welling up with tears. They were as close as brothers, and seeing how much Yin Zhiping respected Zhang Asheng, they were all deeply moved and felt even closer to Yin Zhiping.

The group mounted their horses and rode for a long time before finally arriving at Zhang Asheng's tomb. The Six Eccentrics and Guo Jing stepped forward together, lit incense and candles, burned yellow paper, and tears streamed down their faces before they could even speak.

Han Xiaoying prayed in her heart: "Fifth Brother, ten years have passed. We have devoted ourselves to teaching Jing'er every day, and we have also received help from Master Qiu's disciple. In the martial arts competition in Jiaxing the year after next, I hope you will protect us from heaven and not let this child tarnish the reputation of our Seven Heroes of Jiangnan."

She was originally a gentle woman from the water towns of Jiangnan, but after sixteen years of hardship in this desolate desert, although she still retained her charm, her eyes and brows were haggard, and she no longer had the youthful beauty of her younger days.

Yin Zhiping also stepped forward to offer sacrifices to Zhang Asheng, but he had nothing to say in his heart. He only wanted to gain some favor from the Seven Freaks, especially Han Xiaoying, so that he could learn the Yue Nu Sword Technique.

really.

After the ceremony, Guo Jing and the other five monsters returned to their respective homes. Han Xiaoying called out to Yin Zhiping, "Zhiping, wait a moment, I have something to say."
