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

The three were guarding the Qianchi Building, but the attack from below had stopped.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun looked at Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong with concern. While speaking, he reached out and grasped their hands, transferring his internal energy to check on their physical conditions.

"It's okay, Master, don't worry."

Jiang Ning smiled.

He was indeed fine and had no injuries. It was Linghu Chong who joined the battle midway and the fighting was too intense, which depleted his physical strength and put him in danger several times. Fortunately, Jiang Ning was always paying attention to him and took action in time to prevent him from being injured or killed.

"Thank...thank you for your concern, Master. I'm fine."

Linghu Chong's chest heaved violently and he gasped when he spoke. Although it was almost winter, he was sweating profusely and his arms were shaking slightly.

He is exhausted.

While taking a break, Linghu Chong looked at Jiang Ning opposite him, and saw that Jiang Ning's chest was slightly rising and falling, and his face looked normal.

Seeing Jiang Ning like this, Linghu Chong felt it was outrageous.

He joined the battle midway and was now as tired as a dog, unable to even speak. Jiang Ning fought from the beginning to the end, but he didn't seem to be in much trouble. Before that, he had guarded the Qianchi Building for a day and a night.

This abundant physical strength made Linghu Chong unable to help but complain.

Yue Buqun nodded slightly and then withdrew his hand.

The two of them were just physically exhausted, nothing serious.

"Has the enemy started a large-scale attack?"

Yue Buqun looked at the stone wall and the ground on the Qianchi Building side. There were large patches of blood, some of which had not yet dried.

"Uh-huh."

Linghu Chong nodded quickly.

"Those people just now were all trying their best to attack upwards. They are all experts."

The intensity of today's attack on the mountain is much higher than yesterday.

Yesterday, Jiang Ning was able to defend the Qianchi Building alone and prevent those who had joined the Demon Sect from attacking the mountain. However, the people attacking the mountain today were completely different from yesterday. They all had martial arts background, and many of them were masters. Their strength increased suddenly, otherwise Linghu Chong would not have rushed up to help.

Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun said, “There are also people coming up from the cliff at the back of the mountain. There are dozens of them.”

Then he told about the situation in the back mountain.

When Linghu Chong heard that there were also a lot of experts attacking from the other side, his face changed color repeatedly, but he finally felt relieved when he heard that Yue Buqun had been dealt with, but he was still a little worried.

Although they resisted the attacks of these people, there were only more than 400 of them in total, while there were several thousand people gathered below. They were at a disadvantage both in terms of overall strength and numbers. Their only advantage was that the quality of their masters was higher than those below, and they were able to fight like this because of their geographical advantage. If it were not for the fact that Huashan's terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, they would have suffered heavy casualties long ago.

However, if this continues for a long time, the outcome is still unknown.

"Don't worry."

Yue Buqun saw Linghu Chong's worry and reassured him, "With Master here, these people can't do anything to us."

Hearing Yue Buqun's words, Linghu Chong nodded and said nothing more.

"Big Brother, what kind of swordsmanship did you use before? How come we have never seen it before?"

At this time, a Huashan disciple nearby asked.

"Swordsmanship?"

Yue Buqun was surprised.

What sword technique?

"Uh-huh."

Another Huashan disciple nodded repeatedly: "Master, when Senior Brother was killing the enemy just now, he used a sword technique that none of us had seen before. It was very powerful."

Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun looked at Linghu Chong.

"Chong'er, have you learned any sword techniques?"

"for this I……"

Linghu Chong looked a little embarrassed, but still nodded.

"What kind of swordsmanship is that?"

Yue Buqun was very surprised. Linghu Chong had been in the Cliff of Regret for some time. Where did he learn the sword skills?

"I...I...was taught to me by a senior."

The expression on Linghu Chong's face became even more difficult.

"senior?"

Yue Buqun was even more confused: "What senior? Which senior?"

Suddenly a senior showed up to teach Huashan's eldest disciple swordsmanship, and Yue Buqun wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Master...I..."

Linghu Chong looked a little hesitant.

Feng Qingyang was not allowed to tell anyone about what happened in the Cliff of Repentance. He really didn't know whether he should tell it or not.

Looking at Linghu Chong like this, Yue Buqun frowned.

"Master, since our eldest brother has learned what this senior said, maybe this senior is a hermit who doesn't like to reveal his name and whereabouts. Maybe he told our eldest brother to keep the secret."

At this time, Jiang Ning spoke up to help Linghu Chong out of the predicament.

As he spoke, Jiang Ning winked at Yue Buqun.

Yue Buqun noticed Jiang Ning's gesture and realized that Jiang Ning knew something.

Linghu Chong nodded repeatedly and said, "Master, please allow me to tell you. It's not that I don't want to tell you, but that senior didn't allow me to tell anyone about his existence. I have already made a promise and I dare not go against it. Please forgive me, Master. After this matter is settled, I will find that senior again. If that senior agrees, I will tell you everything in detail."

In order to prove that he was not lying, Linghu Chong pretended to kneel down.

Yue Buqun reached out and supported him.

"That's all."

"Since you've said so, I can't let you break your promise. Let's talk about it after this matter is over."

Linghu Chong was pardoned.

Chapter 203: Tai Sui God

Yue Buqun didn't ask any more questions in the end, and instead said casually: "Since the senior who taught you swordsmanship didn't allow you to reveal his identity, then you can't tell him the name of the swordsmanship he taught you, right?"

"This is not."

Linghu Chong thought about it and found that Feng Qingyang only asked not to reveal his name and whereabouts, but did not prohibit him from revealing anything about his swordsmanship. He quickly said, "The swordsmanship that the senior taught me is called Dugu Nine Swords."

"Dugu Nine Swords?"

Yue Buqun was stunned when he heard the name of the sword technique.

"Master, do you know this sword technique?"

Jiang Ning noticed something unusual about Yue Buqun.

Yue Buqun seemed to be lost in his memories. He came back to his senses after hearing Jiang Ning's words and gave Linghu Chong a meaningful look.

“I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never seen it.”

The name of this sword technique is as old as that person, so old that he almost forgot it.

"Master, have you heard of this?"

Linghu Chong was stunned.

"Ah."

Yue Buqun nodded: "I heard it a long time ago."

After saying this, Yue Buqun looked at Linghu Chong meaningfully and said, "This senior didn't let you reveal his name and whereabouts after teaching you swordsmanship. I guess he is a hidden master who doesn't want to get involved in the disputes of the martial arts world. In that case, you don't need to bother him anymore. Let this senior continue to hide himself."

Upon hearing this, Linghu Chong was stunned, while Jiang Ning was surprised.

From what Yue Buqun said and his eyes at the moment, it seemed that he also recognized that it was Feng Qingyang who taught Linghu Chong the swordsmanship. In that case, there was no need for him to tell him specifically.

However, Yue Buqun's expression and tone meant something different to Linghu Chong.

"Master!"

Linghu Chong knelt on the ground, and said with great fear, "Master, please calm down. It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's because this senior warned me not to reveal any information about him, otherwise I would have to sacrifice my life. But since ancient times, everyone has to die, and people cannot stand without trust. Master, since you are suspicious today, I dare not hide it. The one who taught me the sword technique is..."

"Okay, don't say any more."

Before Linghu Chong could finish his next words, Yue Buqun raised his hand to stop him.

"Get up."

Yue Buqun reached out and pulled him up, and straightened his clothes for him.

"I just have some doubts in my heart, I don't have to force you."

Yue Buqun looked at Linghu Chong and said, "You can remember the saying that a man without integrity cannot stand, which means you have not forgotten what I taught you. Since you and that senior have made an agreement in advance, I will not force you to break your promise."

"One can learn from others' experience. Your teacher has never forbidden you from learning other martial arts. Besides, this is just your personal matter. Your teacher only asked this question because he was worried that this was a conspiracy of the evildoers to confuse you. As long as it is not the case, it will be fine."

Everyone has their own secrets, and Yue Buqun is no exception.

Linghu Chong is his disciple, not his vassal. Even his own children have secrets that their parents don’t know. This is not a big deal.

Yue Buqun actually doesn't have such a strong desire to control anything other than the Huashan Sect.

As long as the safety of Huashan Sect is not endangered, he will not be aggressive.

What's more, Yue Buqun has now guessed who taught Linghu Chong, so it would be better for both of them if Linghu Chong didn't tell it out now.

"Thank you, Master."

Linghu Chong was filled with gratitude.

"Master, don't worry. That senior is definitely not a member of the Demonic Cult."

Yue Buqun smiled faintly: "It's OK if it's not."
