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

"Little Lord!"

These people are of burly build and exude a fierce aura.

"Ah."

Hu Shi nodded slightly with a calm smile.

"My son has made some progress in the martial arts realm recently. He seems to be a little ignorant. Please don't be offended, Sect Master Yue."

Hu Anyu said with a chuckle as he looked at his heroic son.

"hehe."

Yue Buqun just laughed and did not respond.

"Brother Jiang, please teach me."

Arriving at the center of the martial arts training ground, Hu Shi gracefully extended his left hand to Jiang Ning.

"Ah."

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Swords have no eyes, Mr. Hu, be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ning let go of the scabbard, grabbed the hilt at the moment the sword fell, leaned forward slightly, and rushed forward on tiptoe. The scabbard slipped off, and the sword body with a cold glow was exposed in the air, making a clanging sound.

Ding!

The moment the scabbard fell to the ground, Jiang Ning had already arrived in front of Hu Shi, and the tip of the sword stabbed Hu Shi in the face.

Hu Shi's expression jumped and he retreated hastily, but the tip of the sword was always in front of him and did not move away as he retreated.

There was a big tree behind him and he had no way to retreat. Hu Shi glanced back and chose to turn sideways.

puff!

The long sword pierced straight into the tree.

"This move is called the Phoenix Arrives."

Jiang Ning's voice came from the other side.

Hu Shi's face was gloomy.

Before he could fight back, with a whoosh, the sword was pulled out of the tree by Jiang Ning and swept towards him horizontally. Hu Shi was shocked and leaned back in panic, with the tip of the sword drawing an arc in front of him.

"This move is called White Clouds Emerging from the Caves."

At this time, Hu Shi was already having trouble keeping his balance, and Jiang Ning kicked him in the abdomen, causing him to fall backwards.

"This move is called Leopard Tail Kick."

Jiang Ning said expressionlessly.

Hu Shi's face looked very ugly. He got up from the ground with a whoosh, slapped Jiang Ning with his palm, and shouted.

"This move is called Plum Blossom Palm!"

A strong wind blew, but Jiang Ning just watched expressionlessly. The next second, he stretched out his left hand and slapped Hu Shi on the wrist, causing his palm to rise and hit in vain.

Just as he was about to continue, his body suddenly stopped and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Jiang Ning's sword was at his throat.

"Concession."

Jiang Ning smiled and then retracted his sword.

Hu Shi's face looked very ugly.

From the beginning to the end he did not gain any advantage. He was suppressed by his opponent throughout the whole process and was forced to attack first, which made him very passive and unable to display his martial arts at all.

With this speed and this martial arts, a sword can directly pierce through a tree. How can this be called low martial arts?

"My poor disciple is not good at learning skills, so I have made Master Hu laugh."

After seeing the result of the competition, Yue Buqun opened his folding fan, shook it a few times and smiled softly.

Hu Anyu still had the same smile as before, but it seemed a little stiff at this moment. But then he returned to normal and said with a smile: "The Huashan Sect's swordsmanship is indeed profound and unfathomable, and the disciples within the sect are even more outstanding."

The competition was over. Hu Anyu led Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze back to the lobby. Jiang Ning and Hu Shi followed behind, but Jiang Ning's expression remained the same, while Hu Shi looked ugly.

"I wonder if Master Yue has something important to do in Xiangyang?"

Hu Anyu asked as soon as he sat down.

Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun folded his folding fan and said in a serious tone, "Nothing happened. It's just that the disciples in our sect have been practicing hard recently, and I heard that Xiangyang will hold a flower and lantern festival on the 15th of this month, so I brought them out for some fun."

Hu Anyu laughed when he heard this.

"Master Yue is in a really good mood."

After chatting for a while, Yue Buqun took the initiative to say goodbye. Hu Anyu just tried to keep him and then sent Yue Buqun, Jiang Ning and the others to the door before going back.

"Master, something is wrong."

As soon as he walked out of the door, Jiang Ning said to Yue Buqun.

"What's wrong?"

Yue Buqun asked.

Jiang Ning said, "When we were in the lobby just now, several maids came up, and one of them was very strange."

He was talking about the maid who served him tea.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Ning Zhongze frowned and asked, she hadn't noticed it before.

Jiang Ning thought about it carefully and said, "The maid's technique of serving tea was very unfamiliar. She was a little worse than the other maids. Moreover, when Hu Anyu waved to the other maids to leave, the maid was obviously slower. It didn't seem like she was trained. She just followed the other maids' example and did the same thing."

"More importantly, when the maid was serving tea to Hu Anyu, I saw Hu Anyu's hand tremble. Although the amplitude was not large, I was standing at the time and thought the maid was a bit strange, so I paid more attention and discovered this scene."

"When I was fighting with Hu Shi in the martial arts training ground, I happened to glance at her and saw the maid hiding behind the wall, looking in our direction."

"I always feel that something is wrong with her."

After hearing what Jiang Ning said, Yue Buqun fell into deep thought.

Ning Zhongze asked, "Brother, does Sect Master Hu have a daughter?"

Yue Buqun nodded, then shook his head and said, "There is one. Twelve years ago, Hu Anyu gave birth to a daughter. I came to Xiangyang to congratulate him that time. However, the maid we saw today looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She couldn't be his daughter."

"Could it be his niece?"

Ning Zhongze asked again.

Yue Buqun frowned and said, "I'm not sure, maybe."

But then Yue Buqun said: "No matter who that woman is, it is her family affair. We are already out and it is not right to intervene. Let's go back to the inn first, and then go back to Huashan after watching the flower and lantern festival in two days."

"Ah."

Ning Zhongze nodded, and then seemed to remember something.

"By the way, Senior Brother, I heard that Liu Zhengfeng from the Hengshan Sect wants to retire?"

"good."

Yue Buqun said: "Liu Zhengfeng has already revealed his intention to retire from the underworld a few days ago, but he has not officially announced that he will hold a ceremony to retire."

Ning Zhongze frowned and asked, "Why did Senior Brother Liu suddenly quit the martial arts world? Did he receive any threats?"

Yue Buqun shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Since he wants to quit the martial arts world, he has already made up his mind. No matter what happens, if we go to his Golden Basin Conference, it will be considered as an alliance between our Five Mountains Sword Sects."

Ning Zhong nodded.

Jiang Ning was lost in thought.

He seemed to remember that the opening plot of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer was that Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan School was going to retire from the martial arts world?

So the real show is about to begin?

After returning to the inn, Yue Buqun found that Linghu Chong had disappeared. He was too lazy to care about him and just told his disciples not to cause trouble in Xiangyang City before going back to his room.

It was just noon at this time, and Jiang Ning had nothing to do, so he planned to go back to his room to continue practicing. He did not stop until Ying Bailuo knocked on the door in the evening.

Judging from his training over this period of time, his internal energy will be completely purified in a few months. By that time, even if his strength cannot reach the level of a first-rate master, it will at least be several levels higher than it is now.

"Junior Brother Jiang Ning, I heard that Xiangyang City is very lively at night. How about we go out for a walk after dinner?"

While eating, Ying Bailuo came over and said.

He had already discussed with other Huashan disciples and planned to go out for a walk together, and the female disciples also wanted to go out and play together.

Jiang Ning thought about it and nodded.

"it is good."

Anyway, it's a rare opportunity to get out, so you should still have fun. This is also part of the practice. As long as it doesn't interfere with your practice, it's fine.

After finishing their meal, the Huashan disciples left the inn in a mighty procession.

The city of Xiangyang at night is indeed more lively than during the day, and there are more people than during the day. Jiang Ning and a group of senior brothers and sisters walking on the street are very eye-catching. Later, because Lu Dayou wanted to see how others made lanterns, he separated from some junior brothers and sisters. Then some senior brothers and sisters wanted to go around and also separated. In the end, only Jiang Ning, Liang Fa and several disciples were left. Among the female disciples, there were Du Lanyin and a girl named Qiaojun.

"Sir, come in and play."

"Sir, look here~"

A voice came from the building next to him. Jiang Ning turned his head and found that they had arrived at the brothel street without knowing when.

"Brother Liang, how did you lead the way? How did you bring us here?"

Looking at the brothel girls shaking their waists in revealing clothes, Qiaojun glared at Liang Fa with a red face.

"Um...I followed you guys."
