The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Becomes a Disciple of Yue Buqun

At this time Jiang Ning asked.

Yue Buqun said: "Master just came back from outside the Great Wall, and heard Dayou's report. I was just about to go down the mountain to find you."

Lu Dayou had returned to Huashan for a few days. It happened that Yue Buqun was not in Huashan at that time, and only Ning Zhongze, Cheng Buyou and others were there.

After hearing Lu Dayou's words, Ning Zhongze and Cheng Buyu immediately took more than 20 disciples down the mountain to look for Jiang Ning. Two or three days have passed, and he has not returned yet. Now only Feng Buping is left on the mountain to guard Huashan.

"Since you are back, then go back to the mountain. Your master's wife and uncle probably didn't meet you on the way. When you return, I will ask you brothers to go down the mountain to find them and ask them to come back."

Seeing Jiang Ning return safely, Yue Buqun finally let go of the worry in his heart.

Jiang Ning nodded: "Yes."

The two returned to the mountain side by side.

Yue Buqun no longer had the urgency he had before and returned to his previous demeanor.

"What happened during your trip to Sichuan?"

On the way, Yue Buqun asked Jiang Ning this question.

He looked at the Jiangning sword that Lu Dayou brought back and saw the holes and bumps on it.

He gave the sword to Jiang Ning before Jiang Ning went down the mountain. As a result, the trip to Sichuan turned out like this. This made Yue Buqun shudder with fear. He could not imagine what Jiang Ning had encountered.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning told him everything that happened after entering Sichuan.

Yue Buqun frowned and remained silent.

When Jiang Ning talked about the Qingcheng Sect and the Emei Sect, there was not much expression on his face, and there was not much emotion in his heart.

Taoist Zhang had already sent a letter in advance about the Qingcheng Sect's affairs. Although he was a little surprised at first, he was mentally prepared.

As for the affairs of the Emei Sect, although Yue Buqun was surprised, he did not react too much.

The Emei Sect must have had a solid foundation to have been able to stand for so long.

It was within his expectations that he would not be able to form an alliance with Emei, so Yue Buqun did not feel too sorry about it.

However, when Yue Buqun heard that Ren Yingying had started to send Miao girls from the Five Poison Sect to contact Jiang Ning, his expression changed and became very cold.

Especially when he heard that Ren Yingying had sent more than 20 experts to ambush Jiang Ning on a rainy night, Yue Buqun's eyes were filled with unconcealable coldness and murderous intent.

He had never wanted to kill someone so much before.

Chapter 153: Changes in Huashan

Later, after hearing that Jiang Ning joined forces with Taoist Zhang and others to wipe out the Qing Gang, Yue Buqun nodded slightly.

After all, although Taoist Zhang said that in the letter, Jiang Ning killed Yu Canghai and his disciples anyway. Taoist Zhang was also a member of the Qingcheng Sect, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After the next joint cooperation, the relationship between the Huashan Sect and the Qingcheng Sect was not so stiff.

Overall, although Jiang Ning failed to unite with Emei during his trip to Sichuan, it was not a wasted trip as he solved the problem of Qingcheng Sect.

After talking about the trip to Sichuan, Jiang Ning told Yue Buqun about the fight after he met Ren Yingying. When he mentioned the Six Immortals of Taogu, Yue Buqun was surprised.

"Those six weirdos were sent by that evil witch from the cult?"

Yue Buqun said: “When these six people came up the mountain, they spoke in a crazy way and specifically asked for Chong’er. I originally thought that these six people were Chong’er’s friends, but Chong’er didn’t know them either.”

After finding Linghu Chong, the Six Immortals of Taogu wanted to forcibly take him down the mountain. At that time, Yue Buqun was still practicing martial arts in his room. When his disciples notified him, Linghu Chong and a group of disciples had already been injured by them. If Linghu Chong had not had the quick wit to say that if they dared to kill the Huashan disciples, he would rather die than go down the mountain with them, many Huashan disciples would have been killed or injured.

At that time, Cheng Buyou and Feng Buping were practicing sword skills. They were closer to him and arrived earlier than him. When they saw these six people attacking Linghu Chong, they stepped forward to help.

After Cheng Buyou's observation, it seemed that Linghu Chong had a very high talent in swordsmanship and was a promising young man. He also thought highly of this Qi Sect disciple and tried to stop several people. The Six Immortals of Taogu were furious and were about to tear him into pieces. Four of them grabbed Cheng Buyou's limbs and the other two resisted Feng Buping's rescue.

Yue Buqun frowned and said, “The movements of these six people are very strange. Your uncle Cheng didn’t even have time to react before they grabbed his limbs.”

When he arrived, Cheng Buyou was about to be killed in the next second. Fortunately, he acted in time to save Cheng Buyou.

Seeing this, the Six Immortals of Taogu began to besiege Yue Buqun, wanting to capture Yue Buqun like they did with Cheng Buyou, but they were shaken off by his internal force. After the fight, he discovered that these six people also had extraordinary internal force.

Seeing these six people coming up the mountain and wanting to kidnap his eldest disciple and tear apart the elders of the sect, Yue Buqun did not hold back and seriously injured Taohuaxian and Taoshixian. The other four also suffered internal injuries to varying degrees. The Six Immortals of Taogu were frightened and fled down the mountain directly.

Their movements were very strange, and Feng Buping and the other disciples could not catch up with them. Yue Buqun could catch up, but he was afraid that these six people were bait to lure him down the mountain so that he could attack other Huashan disciples. In addition, at that time, everyone else in the Huashan Sect was injured except him, and Feng Buping was also slightly injured. After comprehensive consideration, Yue Buqun let them leave.

At first he was still wondering who sent these six weirdos. He originally thought they were Zuo Lengchan's men, but he didn't expect that they were actually members of the Demon Cult.

When he heard that Jiang Ning had chased Ren Yingying for three days and three nights and seriously injured her, and killed two of the six weirdos, there was no joy on Yue Buqun's face, but his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

After Jiang Ning finished speaking, Yue Buqun stopped, and without waiting for Jiang Ning to wonder, he reached out and grabbed his wrist. A trace of internal force was transmitted from Yue Buqun's hand.

Jiang Ning was slightly surprised by Yue Buqun's behavior, but didn't say anything.

After a while.

Yue Buqun withdrew his hand and frowned even deeper.

"Nonsense!"

There was a hint of reprimand in Yue Buqun's tone.

"Do you think your body is made of iron? Do you want to die?"

He hadn't said anything about chasing Ren Yingying for several days, but he didn't leave even though he was in such a bad physical condition and wanted to fight against the Six Immortals of Taogu. They were not just small fry but six first-rate masters. They were so stubborn that even Yue Buqun felt scared.

"When can I not kill that witch? If she runs away, then so be it. At most, I can kill her next time I see her. You are so careless about your own body. If something happens to you, how can I save you?"

Yue Buqun was terrified.

It would be fine if Jiang Ning didn't go out, but once he went out, the things he did were too much for his heart to bear.

"You have already overdrawn your body twice. You have already suffered hidden injuries. If you don't receive timely treatment, you will suffer from hidden diseases in the future."

Many martial artists find life worse than death in their later years, mainly because they have hidden illnesses from their youth, which lead to unbearable pain in their old age due to the recurrence of old illnesses.

This hidden disease could cause people to suffer unbearable pain at the mildest, or affect the upper limit of their martial arts at the worst, making it impossible for them to make any progress in their lifetime.

Jiang Ning overdrew his body twice, once when he killed more than 20 cavalry masters in Sichuan in one night, and the other time was when he was chasing Ren Yingying this time.

Although Jiang Ning's two victories looked amazing, they were achieved at the cost of his own health.

Let’s not talk about the incident in Sichuan. In that situation, if you didn’t overdraw your potential, you would die. But this time it could have been avoided. If Ren Yingying ran away, she would have run away. There would always be a chance. If Jiang Ning was sacrificed because of killing Ren Yingying, it would not be worth it at all. Even if Ren Yingying was killed, it would still be a huge loss.

In Yue Buqun's heart, ten holy ladies from the Demon Cult are not as good as Jiang Ning.

As both a teacher and a father to Yue Buqun, no matter what kind of achievements Jiang Ning has made outside, it is secondary. What he cares about is whether Jiang Ning is safe.

Hearing Yue Buqun's fatherly tone, Jiang Ning didn't know what to say, so he could only say, "Master is right."

There's no way to justify this kind of thing, just accept the scolding.

The more Yue Buqun thought about it, the more scared he felt. He should not have listened to Jiang Ning and should have gone to Sichuan with Jiang Ning. It was hard for him to imagine how desperate Jiang Ning must have been when he was alone with more than 20 people on a rainy night without any support.

Yue Buqun said sternly: "If you continue to act without regard for your health, I will forbid you to leave the mountain."

Jiang Ning lowered his head and said, "Yes."

"Okay, let's go back."

Seeing Jiang Ning's answer, Yue Buqun's expression eased a little and said.

Jiang Ning followed behind Yue Buqun.

Yue Buqun walked up the mountain at a slightly faster pace, and Jiang Ning also quickened his pace.

On the way up the mountain, Yue Buqun also told Jiang Ning about the situation of Huashan Sect when he was away. Nothing major had happened in Huashan Sect in the past few months, and Songshan Sect had not made any moves after Ding Mian returned.

In the past few months, Yue Buqun has renovated and repaired the Huashan Sect's buildings. This is a huge project, and only half of it has been completed so far, and the other half is still under renovation.

Linghu Chong was now injured, as the inner energy of three of the Six Immortals of Taogu was rushing around in his body. Yue Buqun had wasted a lot of his inner energy in treating his injuries. Although the inner energy of the Six Immortals of Taogu had been cleared out, Linghu Chong's body needed to heal. The ginseng from Mount Hua had been almost used up, so Yue Buqun asked his disciples to go down the mountain to buy some blood-replenishing herbs for Linghu Chong, and he himself went outside the Shanhai Pass to collect herbs for Linghu Chong.

As soon as he came back, he heard the news that Jiang Ning was chasing Ren Yingying. Without even taking a rest, he rushed down the mountain to look for Jiang Ning.

Yue Buqun was very worried about these two disciples.

Both of them were first-rate masters, and they could climb the mountain much faster than ordinary people. When Yue Buqun and Jiang Ning returned to Huashan, there were still some disciples practicing sword in the training ground.

"Master is back."

"Hey, Junior Brother Jiang Ning is back too."

Several disciples saw Yue Buqun who had returned and Jiang Ning who had finally come back, and hurriedly put away their swords and waited at the mountain pass.

"I met the master."

After Yue Buqun and Jiang Ning came up, all the Huashan disciples saluted Yue Buqun.

"Ah."

Yue Buqun nodded slightly, then pointed to one of his disciples and said, "Songnian, take a few fellow apprentices down the mountain to look for your master's wife and Uncle Cheng, and tell them that Ning'er has returned safely. Let them go back to the mountain."

Yan Songnian nodded respectfully: "Yes, Master."

"Okay, continue practicing sword skills."

Yue Buqun waved his hand, said nothing else, and hurriedly walked towards Yousuobuweixuan.

"Ning'er, follow me, Master."

When the other Huashan disciples saw Jiang Ning finally coming back, they originally wanted to ask Jiang Ning some questions about what happened after he went down the mountain, but after hearing what Yue Buqun said, they all looked at Jiang Ning with regret.

"Yes, Master."

Jiangning Road.

Returning to Huashan, Jiang Ning found that Huashan had changed a lot from before he left the mountain.

As he walked along, he found that many houses and buildings had been renovated, with new tiles and repainted beams and pillars.

Yue Buqun did not make any major changes to it, but repaired it on the basis. Some places were expanded, and some houses were demolished. The Huashan Sect now no longer has the shabby feeling of before. From a distance, the buildings are stacked up layer by layer and have a sense of hierarchy, exuding a simple and ancient atmosphere, but without the sense of luxury that Jiang Ning had when he went to Qingcheng Songfeng Temple before. It is pleasing to the eye.

However, this pleasing sight returned to its original state after walking for a while. The buildings inside were still the same as before Jiang Ning went down the mountain. The only difference was that the back hall dedicated to the ancestors of Huashan had been renovated like the buildings seen outside. Not only that, a lot of space had been expanded, and it was at least several times wider than the previous back hall.

Yue Buqun explained that the outside represented the face of the Huashan Sect, so they should renovate the outside first so that it would appear more decent when guests came to visit Huashan, and the rest could be done later.

As for the back hall, since it is a place to worship ancestors, it must be renovated.

Yue Buqun said, "I have already promised you, Uncle Master Feng, to enshrine the spirit tablets of the former Sword Sect disciples. Although it was just a temporary measure at the time, I will do what I said and I will not go back on my word."

Not only that, since we are already planning to enshrine the spirit tablets of the Sword Sect disciples, the spirit tablets of the Qi Sect disciples cannot be left out either.

Of course, the spirit tablets of those Sword Sect disciples and Qi Sect disciples naturally cannot be placed together with those of Huashan’s ancestors.

"Master intends to place the spirit tablets of your uncles and uncles from the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect who died that year on the left and right sides below the ancestral tablets, in two rows."
