Zongwu: Storytelling makes you stronger, and female knights compete to be maids

He also lost his position as the head of Wudang.

Even his closest fellow disciple Shi Yan unfortunately died.

He was once the most powerful elder of Wudang, but now he has become the owner of the notorious Ghost Villa.

Mu Dao Ren could not blame anyone else for all this and could only blame himself.

How absurd and speechless this is.

At the same time, everyone heard an unexpected news.

Su Chen revealed in person that the founder of Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng, once had a crush on a woman, but unfortunately he had no chance to get her wish and ended up living a lonely life.

What a lofty status Zhang Sanfeng holds in the Ming Dynasty martial arts world.

How could his personal anecdotes not arouse everyone's interest?

In an instant, everyone in the hall began to discuss:

"It's really hard to paint the true nature of this Taoist priest. Who would have thought that he was so sinister inside?"

"This Taoist Mu is so foolish! In order to cover up the truth, he actually married his wife to his apprentice. How bizarre is this?"

"Haha, this is the most ridiculous joke I've heard this year. This Taoist Mu is simply asking for trouble."

"So the truth behind Ghost Manor is this. All those martial arts masters faked their deaths and fled the secular world."

"Alas! Who could have predicted that Taoist Mu, the most respected elder in Wudang, would end up like this? It's truly heartbreaking."

"I'm afraid Wudang will face trouble this time. Ghost Manor has committed numerous crimes, and the major sects will definitely hold Wudang accountable."

"This incident cannot be blamed entirely on Wudang. It was entirely the work of Mu Dao Ren alone."

"Mu Dao Ren is a top swordsman in the Heavenly Man Realm. Even if we know the truth, it will not be easy to eliminate him."

"I'm more curious about Master Zhang's past. I never thought he'd ever been emotional."

"It's really surprising. I wonder what kind of person is this woman who could win the heart of Master Zhang?"

……

On the third floor, next to the railing.

Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang looked at each other, both with astonishment in their eyes.

No one expected that the truth about Ghost Manor would be like this.

After Su Chen pointed it out, all the doubts were suddenly cleared up.

Among the major sects in the martial arts world, there are always some traitors who stray from the right path and are hunted down by the sects.

Chapter 20: Shocked

For these people, faking death and retreating is undoubtedly the safest way to escape.

But no one expected that these people were all gathered by Mu Dao Ren to form a terrifying dark force.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Haitang immediately said loudly:

"Thank you, Mr. Su, for exposing this major hidden danger to the Ming Dynasty. This kindness will be remembered by Hulong Villa."

Although the imperial guards never easily intervene in disputes in the martial arts world.

However, when it comes to killer organizations like Ghost Villa that have repeatedly committed bloody crimes, Huolong Villa has always stood firm and is determined to eliminate them.

Su Chen's words this time were of great help, saving countless manpower and time in the search.

The sixth room on the east side of the third floor.

Everyone in the Emei Sect had different expressions. Because of Mu Dao Ren, they recalled another previous leader who had been as famous as him in the martial arts world for decades - Dugu Yihe.

At that time, one was the headmaster of the Emei Sect, and the other was the highest-ranking elder of the Wudang Sect. They had similar identities and reputations, and both were famous for their swordsmanship in the martial arts world. Their strengths were comparable.

Today, Mu Dao Ren has become notorious.

If Dugu Yihe were still alive, he would surely have achieved greater success, and the status of the Emei Sect would have risen accordingly.

It’s a pity that Dugu Yihe had passed away long ago, and the Emei Sect was bound to lose its former glory before the next master of the Heavenly Realm was born.

Because of this, the death of Sect Leader Dugu has always been on their mind.

Seeing that the time was right, Nun Miejue secretly glanced at Zhou Zhiruo beside her.

Zhou Zhiruo understood and immediately stood up and left the room, going to the railing on the third floor.

She was wearing a light yellow long dress and had a beautiful face. As soon as she appeared, she attracted the attention of many people from the martial arts world downstairs.

Zhou Zhiruo ignored those fiery gazes, only gazing at the white jade platform below, and said softly:

"Junior Emei disciple Zhou Zhiruo pays homage to Mr. Su."

"Today, I would like to ask you about the secret behind the passing of our former Emei Sect Leader, Senior Dugu Yihe."

"If you can give me some advice, everyone in Emei will be grateful."

These words are gentle and pleasant, like a spring breeze that touches the heart.

Everyone couldn't help but think in their hearts: Mie Jue is really shrewd and scheming. Letting Zhou Zhiruo come forward to inquire is clearly a strategy of using softness to overcome hardness.

However, everyone present was indeed quite interested in the cause of Dugu Yihe's death.

After all, Dugu Yihe was one of the top figures in the Ming Dynasty martial arts world back then, with a great reputation that was comparable to top masters such as Mu Dao Ren and Ximen Chuxue. He was a figure standing at the pinnacle of the martial arts world.

The mysterious death of such a great master caused a huge sensation in the martial arts world.

Everyone knows that the person who can take his life must be no ordinary person.

Seeing Zhou Zhiruo asking Su Chen for advice in public, many people in the martial arts world agreed and wanted to find out the truth.

……

On the white jade stage.

Su Chen looked at Zhou Zhiruo calmly, examined her from head to toe, and nodded slightly in approval.

This Miss Zhou really lived up to her reputation, and she was truly so beautiful that she could make fish sink to the bottom of their chests, geese fall to the ground, and the moon hide in shame.

Even though he looked a few more times, Su Chen's eyes were still clear.

In his previous life, he had long been immune to the various "beauty bombardments" on the Internet; not to mention that Yu Youwei, who was with him day and night, was as beautiful as her.

Therefore, Su Chen had long been resistant to beauty. After taking a look, he looked away and said with a smile:

"As the saying goes: A beautiful lady is a gentleman's dream."

"Su is also a person who cherishes women and benevolent women."

"Since Miss Zhou has come to ask me about this personally today, and this matter itself is a curious one, it would be a good idea to offer some commentary."

"As everyone knows, Dugu Yihe is a master of the Heavenly Man Realm and is recognized as one of the strongest in the Ming Dynasty."

"Anyone who can kill him is definitely not an ordinary person."

"In fact, this person is also very famous in the martial arts world, and is as famous as Dugu Yihe, Mu Daoren and others."

"It's Huo Xiu, the richest man in Shanxi."

"He possesses a fortune immense, and his wealth is comparable to that of the Hua family."

"Coincidentally, Huo Xiu is also one of Lu Xiaofeng's best friends."

"The two of them often drank tea and played chess in Huo Xiu's treasure pavilion, discussing world affairs."

As soon as these words were spoken, the hall suddenly became noisy.

No one expected that Su Chen would actually take on the task, and he said frankly that he made an exception and agreed because of Zhou Zhiruo's outstanding appearance.

Such frank words immediately won the applause of many people in the world.

After hearing Su Chen's subsequent words, the Ming Dynasty heroes present were shocked.

The person who killed Dugu Yihe was actually Huo Xiu?

This truth did not surprise everyone too much.

After all, Huo Xiu's reputation in the Ming Dynasty martial arts world is no less than that of Dugu Yihe.

Even compared to Dugu Yihe, Huo Xiu's reputation is three times more famous. Not only is he an outstanding martial arts master, he also possesses astonishing wealth.

Some people may not know the leader of Emei, Dugu Yihe, but everyone knows the wealthy man Huo Xiu from Shanxi.

But no one had ever imagined that these two masters who were on par with each other had a deep hatred, and it was a hatred of life and death.

……

The railing on the third floor.

Zhou Zhiruo stood there awkwardly, her hands tightly clutching her sleeves, her heart beating like a drum.

She no longer had the heart to listen to what Su Chen said next, and only his words and smile echoed in her mind.

Girls are naturally delicate and sentimental.

Zhou Zhiruo, who has been practicing in Emei since childhood, is completely blank in terms of emotions.

Su Chen's straightforward confession, coupled with his handsome sword-sage temperament, instantly captured her heart.

But before she could indulge herself for too long, she suddenly felt a chill in her face. It was Master Miejue who appeared.

At this time, Miejue's face was full of anger. He finally found the real murderer who killed Dugu Yihe.

Unfortunately, Huo Xiu himself was not here, so he had to transfer his resentment to others.

That person was Lu Xiaofeng standing by the fence opposite.

Faced with Miejue's cold and sharp gaze, Lu Xiaofeng was dumbfounded on the spot, feeling aggrieved and with nowhere to vent.

How could the friends he made be so deceiving? He was simply shot in the face even when he was lying down.

"Lu Xiaofeng!"

"Since you are Huo Xiu's close friend, can you give me an explanation for Emei?"

On the third floor, Nun Miejue asked in a low voice.
