"But if a swordsman is stuck at the first level, he will be extremely clumsy when wielding a heavy sword. A soft sword may even backfire on him, making him worse off than using bare hands."

"Brother Yu, is what Rong'er said right?"

After saying that, Huang Rong turned to look at Li Yu, her bright, big eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Li Yu sighed again. If this girl had not been so playful and was willing to work hard, she would have definitely been a natural talent when she left Peach Blossom Island. She wouldn't have had to humble herself and become a beggar to hide her identity.

He can answer Huang Rong's question because he is a cheater.

When there is no information advantage, Huang Rong is smarter than him.

Li Yu naturally praised his woman generously.

Huang Rong ran to the kitchen to cook contentedly.

Although many delicacies can be exchanged through the system, Li Yu still likes Huang Rong's cooking skills the most.

Not only is her cooking the most delicious, but it is also filled with deep affection.

The relationship between men and women is not always filled with vows of love; sometimes, sincerity is revealed in the ordinary and plain things.

……

That night, after getting Li Yu's approval, Yue Lingshan returned and couldn't wait to tell Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze the news about the sword carving in the back mountain.

The two did not believe it at first, thinking that Yue Lingshan was just a child playing tricks. Yue Buqun even scolded her for making fun of her parents.

When Yue Lingshan angrily brought up Li Yu's name, Yue Buqun lost his composure instantly and exclaimed, "Li Yu? The Li Yu who took the Heavenly Sword and the Mirror of Pity for Flowers?!"

Heavenly Sword? Flower-loving Mirror?

Yue Lingshan looked bewildered.

After the secret of The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Slaying Sword was exposed, the Dragon Slaying Sword became so popular that the winner, Xie Xun, the Golden Lion King, became even more famous in the Ming Dynasty martial arts world, attracting almost everyone's attention and to a certain extent suppressing the news about the Heaven Sword and the winner of the Heaven Sword.

Li Yu was a newcomer, and although he had some fame, he was far inferior to Xie Xun, who killed countless people in the martial arts world back then.

Therefore, the number of people discussing him and the Sword of the Heavenly Sword is less than one or two of the Dragon Slaying Swords, and only a few interested people pay special attention to him.

Yue Buqun, who was determined to revitalize Huashan, was one of them.

As for the "Mirror of Pity for Flowers", the news was just spread two days ago.

It is said that Li Yu has in his hand the "Lianhua Treasure Mirror", which was written by the eccentric hero Wang Lianhua with all his life's efforts. The content in it is all-encompassing. If you get it, you will have the hope of becoming a martial saint!

Yue Lingshan was just a rookie in the martial arts world and knew very little about the strange stories and anecdotes outside of Huashan. Moreover, she had been running to the back mountain for the past few days, so how could she know so much?

She had no idea that the "Li Yu" she mentioned had attracted the attention of countless people.

With the combination of the Heavenly Sword and the "Mirror of Pity for Flowers", the martial arts world has already been in turmoil.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? What's with the Sword of the Heavenly Sword and the Mirror of Love for Flowers?" Yue Lingshan was a little scared. She had never seen the gentle and refined Yue Buqun lose his composure like this.

Yue Buqun also realized that something was wrong. He pulled up his face and smiled, then returned to his usual calm composure, still the "Gentleman Sword" that Yue Lingshan was familiar with.

This made Yue Lingshan feel a little relieved.

Yue Buqun turned his back and looked like he was thinking.

On the invisible side, his eyes flickered, and the emotions hidden in his eyes kept changing, sometimes excited, sometimes greedy, sometimes worried, and sometimes unwilling...

Ning Zhongze on the side looked at Yue Buqun worriedly. Although she had a vague guess about something, she finally chose to believe her husband.

She believed that her husband was a gentleman and would not do anything disappointing.

After a long while, Yue Buqun turned around with a smile and made a decision in his mind.

Keep the secret and make good connections!

He had thought it through. Judging from the strength Li Yu showed on Guangmingding, even if Huashan mobilized all its forces, it would not be his opponent.

This left him with only three options.

1. Make the news public and attack in unison.

Second, secretly seek external assistance and conspire together, and then make plans after the success.

3. Conceal the news and make friends with Li Yu.

The first option is obviously unreliable.

Once the news is made public, not to mention how many people will be attracted and whether Huashan can still get a share of the pie, he will probably be the first to bear Li Yu's revenge.

The second option is that with Yue Buqun's suspicious character, he cannot find a reliable ally who is both trustworthy and powerful.

Then there is only one last way left.

If it were in the past, Yue Buqun would not have thought that he could marry someone above his station, but if what Yue Lingshan said was true, then it seemed...

Yue Buqun turned to look at his daughter, his eyes meaningful and his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Unexpectedly, despite his best efforts to revitalize Huashan, he was always unsuccessful and instead lived under the shadow of Zuo Lengchan for many years.

The opportunity finally came, but the key fell on his young and naive daughter.

Is it really a matter of time and fate?

Yue Buqun had to doubt.

Chapter 074 Play hard to get

Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Yue Buqun, who had not slept all night, couldn't wait to wake up his sleepy daughter, and let her lead the way, and he and Ning Zhongze rushed to the back mountain together.

The three of them used their Qinggong skills to run on the steep mountain path. Yue Buqun's eyes flickered, and a hint of nervousness was revealed in his expectant eyes.

If he had not heard Yue Lingshan say that there were too many sword carvings and murals to see in a short time, and because it was dark at night and difficult to see clearly, and if he lit a torch, it would be too conspicuous, he would have come here last night.

In fact, there is no one on the back mountain of Huashan all year round, so even if torches are lit, it doesn’t matter, and the possibility of leakage is very small.

But Yue Buqun was suspicious by nature. After he learned the Fire Dance Whirlwind Sword Technique, he naturally had to hide it and did not dare let anyone know. Feeling guilty, he became more and more suspicious, fearing that something would go wrong.

Although he quietly dealt with the useless Songshan spy Lao Denuo after the Songshan Sect was wiped out, Yue Buqun still did not dare to let his guard down.

The second disciple of Huashan was just the exposed traitor, what about the other disciples?

The Huashan Qi Sect is now in decline, and apart from Zuo Lengchan who is determined to annex the Five Mountains Sword Sect, no other force in the martial arts world is interested in them.

But the court was different.

All under heaven belongs to the king; all within the four seas are the king's subjects.

The imperial court can tolerate the existence of underworld forces, but it will never tolerate knowing nothing about them and will definitely send out secret agents to lurk in hiding.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards protected the imperial power and were responsible for many affairs of the court and local officials. They were the eyes of the emperor.

The Six Gates pursue criminals and thieves to maintain public order.

The West Factory was established to curb the growing power of the East Factory...

These three have clear responsibilities and will not easily interfere in the underworld.

But the East Factory and Hulong Villa are different.

Because the East Factory was established the earliest, its responsibilities were extremely broad. Over time, it became involved in too many things and gradually became a small and insignificant unit. However, it still takes care of both internal and external affairs and has great power in the government and the country.

Like the other three institutions, Hulong Villa was established to divide power and check and balance various parties.

However, since the owner of the manor, Zhu Wusi, is the uncle of the current emperor, his power is far beyond the reach of the three major institutions, and he also controls both the underworld and the court.

After twenty years of development, under the leadership of Zhu Wusi, Hulong Villa has been able to compete with Dongchang.

And these two have one thing in common, that is, the emotional ⒐↓‖④target2“№偲№$⒊|③≤△0五刺∵恢≌『4折!代∶″购: reporting ability is extremely strong!

No one in the entire Ming Dynasty knew how many secret agents and spies they had.

It's not omnipresent, but it's close.

Yue Buqun still can't figure out which of his disciples are court spies. How could he not be afraid?

He has been the head for such a long time, always trembling with fear and walking on thin ice. Needless to say, he is very cunning. But he has been fine until now because he has followed a principle - it is better to be careful than not.

The situation is tense and every tree and grass looks like an enemy, so what?

And his appearance makes people feel funny, but also sad, doesn't it?

Finally, the three of them arrived at the place where the Jade Maiden Sword was engraved.

"Dad, Mom, look, this is it!"

Yue Lingshan greeted him, two red clouds appeared on her fair and tender face, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

The Jade Maiden Sword is engraved with her appearance, and the meaning it conveys is too suggestive.

She didn't need to say anything, Yue Buqun's eyes had long been glued to the mural and couldn't be peeled away. His whole mind was immersed in it, and he didn't hear what Yue Lingshan said at all, let alone her reaction.

Ning Zhongze was more concerned about Yue Lingshan.

Seeing her daughter's rosy face and shy and happy look, as a person who had experienced it, she understood it very well and sighed inwardly.

She originally had her eyes on Linghu Chong becoming her son-in-law. After all, they were childhood sweethearts and had always had a good relationship.

But now it seems that there will be twists and turns.

I don’t know if the two of them can end up together.

Ning Zhongze hesitated for a moment out of fondness for Linghu Chong, but still said, "Shan'er, marriage is a lifelong commitment. You must think it over carefully. Think it over again and again. Don't make a decision on impulse. It will be too late to regret it later."

Yue Lingshan's face turned even redder. She hugged Ning Zhongze's arm and acted coquettishly, "Mom, what are you talking about? I won't get married. I want to stay with you and dad forever."

"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about! How can a girl not get married when she grows up?" Ning Zhongze raised his finger and tapped Yue Lingshan's forehead lightly, but his face was full of a doting smile.

Yue Lingshan giggled and made Ning Zhongze happy.

Ning Zhongze was helpless.

Her daughter has grown up and has her own ideas. She can only keep an eye on her daughter but cannot make decisions for her.

Otherwise, if she is unhappy in the future, her daughter will definitely blame her mother.

Shaking his head, Ning Zhongze stopped thinking about it and turned to look at the Jade Girl Sword Carving, and was immediately fascinated by it.

Only Yue Lingshan was left standing there bored. She found a big rock to sit on, supporting her knees with her right forearm and her chin, imagining what story Li Yu would tell her after meeting him today.

As she was thinking, Yue Lingshan, who had a smile on her face, suddenly changed her expression and stood up.

"Ah! I brought my parents here. Given my father's dedication and obsession with martial arts, I'm afraid he won't leave for the entire day. Will Big Brother Li still be willing to show up?"

"If he doesn't want to see my dad, will he just leave?"
