The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun.

Lu Dayou also smiled and said, "I will write to you after I return to Mount Hua."

Qin Xiaohan nodded, her face slightly flushed.

The two families have already agreed on their marriage, which will take place next July.

Both sides attach great importance to Lu Dayou and Qin Xiaohan's marriage, and there are many things to prepare.

"Sect Leader Yue, please take care on your journey."

Master Qingzhu addressed the members of the Huashan Sect.

The group returned the greetings and then descended the mountain.

"I'm home, I'm home, I'm finally home."

Yue Lingshan was very excited.

She's been away from home for a while now and she's starting to miss it.

Not only her, but all the other Huashan disciples were the same.

Only Lu Dayou seemed somewhat sullen.

"what happened?"

Ying Bailuo, who had a good relationship with Lu Da, put his arm around Lu Da's shoulder and asked.

Lu Dayou was a little embarrassed to say it.

Shu Qi, standing to the side, teased, "Could it be that you can't bear to part with Senior Sister Qin? Sixth Senior Brother, if you ask me, you might as well just stay on Mount Emei. Don't let your body go back to Mount Hua with us while your heart remains on Mount Emei."

The other Huashan disciples burst into laughter.

What are you saying?!

Enraged, Lu Dayou chased after Shu Qi, intending to beat him up.

Upon seeing this, Shu Qi took off running, chattering non-stop as he ran, causing the Huashan disciples to burst into laughter.

Even Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze smiled slightly upon seeing this scene.

"Senior Brother, Sixth Brother's marriage is already arranged, when will your matter be resolved?"

Linghu Chong was enjoying himself when he heard his junior brother mention him. He pretended not to understand and asked, "What is it?"

Liang Fa laughed and said, "Senior Brother, all the junior brothers are waiting to drink your wedding wine."

"Go away, go away, what wedding banquet?"

Linghu Chong repeatedly rebuked him, but his rebukes were not threatening at all; instead, they only made the group of Huashan disciples laugh.

At this moment, a disciple of Mount Hua asked with some worry, "Won't the Demonic Sect attack us on the way?"

Another Huashan disciple laughed and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Among their group were five top-tier experts, two of whom were ranked second or third among the righteous sects. The rest of the Huashan disciples were the elite of the elite. Unless the Demonic Sect had lost its mind, it would not have come to ambush them. The number of people and experts needed to wipe them out would not be small.

The Huashan disciple who was worried about the Demonic Church's ambush also agreed with this reasoning and went to tease Lu Dayou as well.

Time passed slowly amidst the laughter and playfulness of the Huashan disciples, and they drew ever closer to Huashan.

March.

Mount Hua.

"Finally home!"

Seeing the familiar Mount Hua in sight, all the Mount Hua disciples were very excited.

"All right."

Yue Buqun, the patriarch of the Huashan family, said to his disciples, "You all go up Huashan first. Your master and Ning'er have something to attend to and will be delayed for a while."

He wanted to go with Jiang Ning to Huaming Village to meet the mother and son who had saved Jiang Ning.

"Yes, Master."

The disciples agreed.

"Come, Ning'er, come with me to see your savior."

Yue Buqun laughed.

Jiang Ning also laughed.

When the two arrived at Huaming Village, the villagers warmly welcomed them.

"I have already arranged for Liu Lie and his mother to live with this family."

Jiang Ning led Yue Buqun to a family's house.

This is where an elderly couple lives; they have no children.

When Jiang Ning and Yue Buqun arrived, Liu Lie and his mother were also there.

"My benefactor!"

Liu's mother was working in the yard when she saw Jiang Ning and was overjoyed.

Liu Lie was playing in the yard when he saw Jiang Ning and stumbled over, calling out to him.

"Master... Master."

Jiang Ning picked him up and said to Yue Buqun, "Master, this is Liu Lie."

He then said to Liu's mother, "This is my master, and also the head of the Huashan Sect."

When Liu's mother saw Yue Buqun's superior demeanor, she wanted to kneel down and beg him to take in her son, but she was stopped before she could kneel down.

Yue Buqun smiled and said, "You saved Ning'er, which is a great favor to me. You don't need to worry about Liu Lie's matter. I will not refuse him to join my Huashan Sect. He is destined to join my Huashan Sect."

Hearing Yue Buqun say this, Liu's mother was overjoyed, and a huge weight was finally lifted from her shoulders.

Yue Buqun looked at Liu Lie, checked his physical condition, and nodded, saying, "This child is indeed weak and needs some recuperation, but don't worry, he won't die young."

Upon hearing this, Liu's mother was overjoyed.

She made the right decision that time.

"Ning'er, let's go."

Yue Buqun said to Jiang Ning.

He just came to take a look and didn't plan to bring Liu Lie up Mount Hua right now, since Liu Lie is still young.

After the two returned to Mount Hua, Yue Buqun went back to the Suoyoubuwei Pavilion, and Jiang Ning also prepared to return to his residence.

He hadn't seen Maodou for quite a while and was starting to miss it.

Let's see if it runs off and gets turned into donkey meat sandwiches.

Chapter 472: A Gentleman's Self-Discipline

When Jiang Ning returned to his residence, he found a large donkey sleeping in his yard.

squeak~

Pushing open the courtyard gate, Jiang Ning finally returned to his home.

Jiang Ning's opening of the door startled Mao Dou awake.

"Oh? Still alive?"

Maodou glanced at him sleepily and was about to go back to sleep, but when he heard Jiang Ning's slightly amused voice, his eyes widened in the next second. He jumped up from the ground and ran straight towards Jiang Ning, barking excitedly as he ran.

"Huff, huff!"

Maodou was very fast, rushing over in a flash. It didn't seem like it wanted to see Jiang Ning; it seemed like it wanted to run him over.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning dodged to the side, avoiding the donkey's charge.

Losing its target, Maodou didn't even have time to brake and rushed straight out of the yard. Luckily, Jiang Ning hadn't closed the door, otherwise they would have had to replace it.

Finding no one in front of him, Maodou turned his head and aimed at Jiang Ning again, preparing to continue charging like a donkey, but Jiang Ning spoke first.

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Maodou stopped and huffed at Jiang Ning.

Maodou came to Jiang Ning's side with a thud, and Jiang Ning patted its belly.

"Not bad, haven't gained weight in a year."

Maodou grunted.

Jiang Ning laughed and said, "You haven't been stealing the old lady's flowers and plants again, have you?"

Maodou raised its head, clearly unhappy.

What kind of talk is this? Is Maodou the kind of donkey that doesn't keep its promises?

“I was thinking that if I came back and found that you had been captured and made into donkey meat sandwiches, I would go and ask for two back so I could taste your flavor. It would be a good thing that we were master and servant together.”

Jiang Ning smiled.

Maodou glared at Jiang Ning and was about to bump into him, but Jiang Ning held his head down so he couldn't move.

"I'm just kidding."

Jiang Ning laughed heartily, patted the donkey's head, and then went back into the house.

He hadn't been back for a year, but the house wasn't dusty at all; in fact, it was quite clean. I wonder who cleaned it while Jiang Ning was away.

As you open the window, sunlight streams in, brightening the room.

Jiang Ning unwrapped the cloth covering the Zhenwu Sword, placed it on the table, and thought to himself that he would find a blacksmith to forge a scabbard in a couple of days.

Jiang Ning sat at the table for a while, then got up, changed his clothes, and took a basin to the river to wash his clothes.

When he returned with the washed clothes, he found a small figure sitting inside.

"Master."

Upon seeing Jiang Ning return, Liu Zhao hurriedly came out of the house.
