Martial Arts Crossover: My Master is Huang Rong

These words, like the warmest spring breeze in the world, instantly dispelled all the gloom and loneliness in Zhou Zhiruo's heart.

She was orphaned at a young age and lived under the roof of others. Although her master, Abbess Miejue, valued her, she was hard-hearted and never showed her any real warmth. Her senior sister, Ding Minjun, was even more jealous and made things difficult for her at every turn.

She had long been accustomed to swallowing all her grievances and using her delicate appearance to conceal her inner resilience.

She never imagined that someone could so easily see through all her pretenses and understand the loneliness and helplessness deep within her heart.

She never imagined that this world-renowned man would say such words of promise and protection to her.

"Young Master Lin..."

She simply raised her head and looked deeply at Lin Xuan with her watery eyes.

That single glance contained boundless gratitude, trust, and a seed of affection quietly sprouting within it.

She gave Lin Xuan a solemn curtsy.

"Zhiruo... thanks Young Master Lin. I will never forget this great kindness."

Looking at her strong yet pitiful appearance, Lin Xuan's heart stirred slightly.

He didn't say anything more, but simply gave her a gentle smile and nodded.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Everyone around, including Abbess Miejue and Ning Zhongze, only saw Lin Xuan and Zhou Zhiruo exchange a few words and did not notice the undercurrents between them.

After Zhou Zhiruo finished her greeting, she lowered her head and silently retreated behind Abbess Miejue, never raising her head again.

With the Emei Sect gone, Mount Hua returned to its former tranquility.

But this tranquility was soon shattered by a shocking piece of news that was enough to shake the entire martial arts world.

Zuo Lengchan is dead!

This news was like a bombshell, exploding throughout the entire Huashan Sect.

According to rumors circulating in the martial arts world, after Zuo Lengchan led his disciples back to Songshan in disgrace, a mysterious master broke into the Songshan Sect that very night, sneaked into Zuo Lengchan's bedroom, and killed him!

The mysterious assassin appeared and disappeared without a trace, leaving no clues whatsoever.

When the news reached Mount Hua, the disciples were initially shocked, but then burst into uncontrollable elation!

"Dead? That old scoundrel is dead just like that? That's great!"

"It's a miracle! I've disliked him ever since he came to our Mount Hua with that arrogant and domineering attitude!"

"What goes around comes around; no one escapes the wrath of Heaven! This is what they call retribution for evil!"

The disciples gathered in twos and threes, discussing amongst themselves, their faces filled with smug excitement.

Zuo Lengchan already had a terrible reputation in the martial arts world. He was ambitious and ruthless. In order to become the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, he suppressed and ostracized countless fellow practitioners.

His death was not a loss for most righteous people; on the contrary, it was a cause for celebration.

When Ning Zhongze heard the news, she was stunned for a long time, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

Although she didn't like Zuo Lengchan's character either, they were from the same Five Mountains Sword Sect after all, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad when she heard that he had ended up like this.

Upon hearing the news, Yue Buqun first feigned grief and regret over the passing of his "comrade," and then locked himself in his study, not coming out for an entire day.

at night.

Lin Xuan gazed intently at the waning moon outside the window.

"Zuo Lengchan is dead..."

He muttered to himself, a meaningful smile curving his lips.

This was indeed beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that although Zuo Lengchan had been humiliated at Mount Hua, given his ruthless nature, he would not let it go and would surely make a comeback in the future to stir up trouble.

But unexpectedly, he died so soon.

"Who could have done it?"

Lin Xuan tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his brain racing.

There is only one prime suspect.

Without a doubt, it is Yue Buqun.

With Zuo Lengchan dead, among the Five Mountains Sword Sects, who can rival Yue Buqun in terms of seniority, reputation, and martial arts skills?

The position of leader of the Five Mountains Alliance is practically in his pocket.

But it couldn't have been Yue Buqun who did it.

He has been staying near Mount Hua for some time and has been unable to leave.

Moreover, even if Yue Buqun had mastered the Sunflower Manual and greatly improved his skills, it would have been an almost impossible task for him to sneak into the heavily guarded Songshan Sect alone and kill Zuo Lengchan.

Could it be that the mysterious person behind him made a move?

In order to help Yue Buqun, a pawn, rise to power, he actually went so far as to personally take action and clear away obstacles.

Curiosity gleamed in Lin Xuan's eyes.

"really interesting."

Chapter 120: Picking Yue Lingshan

After Zuo Lengchan's death, Mount Hua was swept away from its former gloom and replaced by a vibrant vitality and anticipation.

A few days later, a piece of news spread like wildfire throughout Mount Hua, and was officially announced to the public by Yue Buqun:

In order to deal with the possible counterattack of the Demonic Cult and to carry on the legacy of the Five Mountains Sword Sect in upholding justice, Yue Buqun, the leader of the Huashan Sect, has written a letter inviting the Taishan, Hengshan, Hengshan and Songshan Sects to gather at the top of Huashan in a month to discuss the grand plan of the "Five Mountains Alliance" to resist the Demonic Cult.

This news greatly boosted the morale of the entire Huashan Sect, and the disciples were all proud of their sect's foresight and sense of responsibility. Huashan became the focus of the entire martial arts world.

That day, Yue Lingshan excitedly ran over and found Lin Xuan sitting quietly in the courtyard.

"Brother Xuan, have you heard?" The girl's face lit up with excitement. "In a month, Father is going to invite the senior uncles and elders from the other four sects to Mount Hua to discuss the important matter of forming the Five Mountains Alliance! Mount Hua will definitely be very lively then!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan simply smiled faintly. He opened his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him, who had a blush on her face and was beaming with joy.

"That's truly a grand event in the martial arts world." His tone was calm and even. "In that case, I should congratulate Sect Leader Yue in advance."

After saying that, he changed the subject and stood up.

"Shan'er, I have troubled you on Mount Hua for many days, it is time for me to leave. I plan to bid farewell to Headmaster Yue and Lady Ning, and I will descend the mountain tomorrow."

Yue Lingshan's smile froze instantly, and the excitement was quickly replaced by a deep sense of loss. She stared blankly at Lin Xuan, her lips moved, but she couldn't say anything.

Lin Xuan didn't explain further, but simply patted her on the shoulder and turned to walk towards the Zhengqi Hall.

Inside the Hall of Righteousness, Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze were processing letters that were about to be sent to various factions.

"Sect Leader Yue, Heroine Ning." Lin Xuan clasped his hands in greeting to Yue Buqun and his wife at the head of the table, a hint of regret on his face.

"I am deeply grateful for your hospitality during my stay at Mount Hua. The scenery of Mount Hua is beautiful and I have seen it all, which has made me feel refreshed and happy."

"All good things must come to an end. I will set off down the mountain tomorrow to continue my travels."

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed in Yue Buqun's eyes.

Lin Xuan, this mountain, has been weighing on his heart for a long time.

There was a master who stayed on Mount Hua, and he felt restricted and constrained in everything he did.

Now that the other party has taken the initiative to leave, he couldn't be happier!

But on the surface, he remained the same gentlemanly figure, warmly inviting Lin Gongyi to stay: "Young Master Lin, why do you say that? Everyone in the Huashan Sect regards you as our most honored guest. It would be an honor for Huashan to have you stay here a little longer. Why the rush?"

Lin Xuan waved his hand and smiled, "It's normal to travel the world. Sect Leader Yue, there's no need to worry about it."

Seeing that Lin Xuan was determined to leave, Yue Buqun stopped pretending to try to persuade him to stay. He was secretly overjoyed, but his face showed regret. He cupped his hands and said, "Since that's the case, I won't insist that you stay."

"The gates of Mount Hua are always open to Young Master Lin. You are welcome to visit us anytime."

"Definitely." Lin Xuan smiled meaningfully.

He silently added in his mind: "Next time I come, you'll be in big trouble."

Ning Zhongze, who was standing to the side, remained silent throughout.

She simply looked at Lin Xuan quietly, her gentle, watery eyes filled with an undisguised sense of loss and reluctance.

These days were the happiest and most crazy period of her life so far.

The man before her stirred up a raging storm in her stagnant heart, giving her an unprecedented and intense pleasure and passion as a woman.

That intoxicating, soul-stirring pleasure was already etched deep within her soul.

Now, he's leaving.

Her heart felt as if a piece had been hollowed out, leaving her feeling utterly empty.

But she was, after all, Ning Zhongze, the "Jade Maiden of Mount Hua" who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. She tried her best to maintain a calm smile on her face and not let herself lose her composure.

Lin Xuan took in the deep disappointment in her eyes.

He understood, and a touch of tenderness welled up within him.

This gentle white rose needs to be carefully cared for.

It seems I'll have to comfort Sister Ning tonight, he thought to himself.

The night was as dark as ink, and a bright, clear moon hung in the sky, casting its gentle light.

Lin Xuan's courtyard was quiet and still.

He and Yue Lingshan sat side by side on the stone bench, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.

Yue Lingshan dressed up with extra care today. She wore a light purple silk dress with a few delicate white flowers embroidered on the hem, elegant yet charming.

Her long hair was tied up with a simple jade hairpin, with a few playful strands hanging down beside her cheeks, gently swaying in the evening breeze.

Under the moonlight, her already beautiful face appeared even more radiant and delicate, like jade.

Her bright, large eyes, like black gems immersed in water, shimmered with a shy yet expectant light.

She was like a violet quietly blooming under the moonlight—pure, beautiful, and with a touch of mysterious allure.

Lin Xuan didn't speak, but simply reached out and pulled her soft, delicate body into his arms, letting her lean against his chest.

Feeling his strong, powerful heartbeat and smelling the reassuring masculine scent emanating from him, Yue Lingshan's cheeks gradually flushed with a beautiful blush.

Her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.

The sadness of parting, intertwined with the unknown that was about to come, stirred up an unprecedented impulse in her heart.

She didn't want to have any regrets.

In the silence, Yue Lingshan suddenly mustered the greatest courage of her life.

She raised her head, her watery eyes fixed on Lin Xuan's deep gaze, and then, slightly tiptoeing, she pressed her soft, cool, and trembling cherry lips against his.

Lin Xuan paused slightly.

He was somewhat surprised.

You should know that, although he had already explored every part of the beautiful young girl's body in his arms from head to toe these past few days.

But this was their first real kiss.

The girl's kiss was awkward and clumsy, like a chick pecking at rice; it was just a light touch before she wanted to shyly pull away.

But would Lin Xuan let her have her way?

Just as her lips were about to leave, his large hand, which had been around her slender waist, tightened suddenly, while his other hand gripped the back of her head, turning the tables and kissing her back fiercely!

"Well……"

Yue Lingshan let out a gasp, but all her words were then stuck in her throat.

His kiss was wild and domineering, full of aggression.

Unlike her fleeting touches, his tongue, like a nimble fire serpent, easily pried open her pearly teeth and plunged deep into her untouched, fragrant territory, conquering and plundering at will.

Yue Lingshan's mind went completely blank for a moment.

She had never experienced anything like this before. She felt a strong, trembling electric current surge from the point where their lips and tongues met, instantly spreading throughout her entire body.

Her body was as soft as spring water, and she could only cling helplessly to him, letting him take whatever he wanted.

As Lin Xuan deepened the kiss, he guided her clumsy tongue to dance with his.

His hands also started to wander.
