Chapter 179: Taking down Ning Zhongze.
"Are you perhaps joking with me, sir?"
Yue Buqun frowned.
"I know Sect Leader Yue is a little skeptical. How about this, I'll give Sect Leader Yue a demonstration, and I believe Sect Leader Yue will then understand the power of the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual."
"Lin Pingzhi, come out."
Yang Ke called out with a smile, and then Lin Pingzhi walked out of the woods.
"Sect Leader Yue, I know you've been searching for Lin Pingzhi because of the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual."
"You know what his strength was before. Now, make him your opponent, and you will understand the power of the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual."
Yang Ke spoke to Yue Buqun about Lin Pingzhi.
"Lin Pingzhi, Sect Leader Yue has designs on your family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual. You need not hold back. Let Sect Leader Yue see if your family's sword technique is powerful enough to impress him."
After explaining the situation to Yue Buqun, Yang Ke indicated that Lin Pingzhi was free to act as he pleased and that he would not restrict him.
Yue Buqun wanted to say something, but Lin Pingzhi wouldn't give him the chance. He drew his sword and charged towards Yue Buqun.
"Shh!"
The Evil-Repelling Sword Technique is all about speed. Those who use this sword technique are all swift and unpredictable. No one outside knows the names of its moves, only that its moves are inconceivable.
Yue Buqun naturally wanted to see what effect the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual he had been longing for could have in Lin Pingzhi's hands, after all, Lin Pingzhi was just a third-rate young master before.
Yue Buqun could easily handle the first few moves, but as Lin Pingzhi's swordsmanship became faster and faster, even with his profound inner strength, he couldn't help but frown.
He could tell that Lin Pingzhi was still limited by his own internal strength; otherwise, in terms of swordsmanship, Yue Buqun would not be able to defeat him.
"Alright, Lin Pingzhi, you may leave."
After seeing Lin Pingzhi gradually losing ground, Yang Ke called a halt to the seller's show.
"Sect Leader Yue, how is this swordsmanship?"
"With the internal strength of your Huashan Sect's Zixia Divine Skill, plus the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, there are very few people in the world who can defeat you. At most, there are only a few top masters like Dongfang Bubai and Feng Qingyang."
Yang Ke also joked, after all, these were people that Yue Buqun couldn't beat at all.
"Oh, here's a bonus message for you."
"The swordsmanship that Linghu Chong learned was taught by Feng Qingyang, a disciple of the Huashan Sect. He even asked Linghu Chong not to teach you the swordsmanship."
"And he is currently hiding near Mount Hua. Even if Mount Hua is in danger, he will not show up."
Worried that Yue Buqun might still be hesitant, Yang Ke added insult to injury.
Judging from Linghu Chong's behavior after learning the Five Mountains Sword Sect's sword techniques and the Dugu Nine Swords from the back mountain, it can be seen that Feng Qingyang truly had no good feelings towards the Huashan Sect.
If Yue Buqun hadn't relied on himself, the Huashan Sect would probably have been wiped out.
Oh well, in the end, Yue Buqun also lost his wife and children, and the Huashan Sect became history.
"..."
Yue Buqun remained silent, but the fact that he gripped the sword hilt tightly showed that he was truly furious.
To be fair, in terms of sect leaders, only Zuo Lengchan and Yue Buqun in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer are reliable.
Mo Da only thinks about traveling and sightseeing all day long, the Taishan School is too weak, and the Hengshan School adheres to the rules and regulations. Basically, these three schools are just there to make up the numbers.
A demonic cult.
Ren Woxing simply didn't treat his followers as human beings, and neither did Dongfang Bubai.
The main reason was that Dongfang Bubai's situation made him tired of dealing with trivial matters, and anyway, there was no one he could beat.
For the Demonic Cult, the deaths of any number of people are nothing more than replacing them with a new batch of obedient subordinates.
In contrast, Zuo Lengchan filled in the gaps in the Songshan School's sword techniques, created his own Frost Qi, and trained a large number of subordinates. This is what truly made the Songshan School rise to prominence, rather than relying on the school's inherent strengths.
The Huashan Sect was truly miserable. After the Sword and Qi Sects had their squabbles, only a handful of members remained. Yue Buqun managed to revive the Huashan Sect with great difficulty, but then his eldest brother, Linghu Chong, turned out to be irresponsible, and his second brother was an undercover agent.
Now that the Huashan Sect is in crisis, Feng Qingyang, a figure with deep roots in the sect, is even more eager for the sect to perish as soon as possible. If Yue Buqun doesn't step forward, the Huashan Sect will be gone sooner or later.
Therefore, in this world, the only reliable people are Zuo Lengchan and Yue Buqun. It was this mindset that led Yue Buqun to quietly pick up the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual and leave.
As for what it means, that's quite obvious.
Yue Buqun originally wanted to have a serious talk with Ning Zhongze, but when he returned to his bedroom, he found that Ning Zhongze was gone.
"They probably already had my junior sister captured earlier, otherwise they wouldn't have been so generous as to throw the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual to me."
Yue Buqun muttered a sentence to himself, and when he thought of the first sentence of the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual, he couldn't help but clench his hands.
It's not that Yue Buqun had a bad attitude; the main reason was that the phrase "If you want to practice this skill, you must first castrate yourself" was too devastating.
It's only because he's older that he has a clearer understanding of things; otherwise, he might not have been able to put his heart into practicing.
It didn't matter to Yang Ke when Yue Buqun practiced the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual. At this moment, he looked at Ning Zhongze, who had just been brought over, and his meaning was very clear.
Actually, he just wanted to make Ning Zhongze give up hope. After all, Yue Buqun silently left with the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, which was exactly what Ning Zhongze wanted to exchange for it.
"Just kill me."
Ning Zhongze was heartbroken and no longer wanted to live.
After all, her husband, who had been with her for many years, actually sold her out for a sword manual, and that sword manual even required castration.
Even in modern times, this would be extremely shocking. In ancient times, although there were eunuchs, very few people could accept such a thing.
"Madam Ning, you wouldn't want my business to lose money, would you?"
"If I've lost out on you, then your daughter..."
Yang Ke is currently wearing a god-level mask, and his appearance and physique have changed quite a bit, so he naturally has nothing to worry about.
Ning Zhongze certainly understood Yang Ke's meaning, and Yang Ke was too mysterious; she didn't think her daughter and son-in-law could stop him.
Thinking of this, Ning Zhongze looked to the other side, tears welling up in her eyes.
At that moment, she had resigned herself to her fate.
Seeing this, Yang Ke naturally led Ning Zhongze to a house at the foot of Mount Hua, which was where Lin Pingzhi had lived before.
As the saying goes, "the darkest place is under the lamp," how could Yue Buqun possibly know that Lin Pingzhi was hiding here cultivating?
Yang Ke led Ning Zhongze into the room, and then naturally...
"Congratulations, host, on successfully winning over Ning Zhongze. As this strategy was very effective, you are rewarded with the Purple Cloud Divine Skill."
Originally, Ning Zhongze was only a minor supporting character and it was impossible for her to obtain the Zixia Divine Skill, which was comparable to the Yi Jin Jing. However, due to Yang Ke's outstanding performance, the system naturally increased the reward.
Not bad. Zixia Divine Skill is the internal energy cultivation method of Huashan Sect. It is the superior internal energy cultivation method of Huashan Sect, which dominates the martial arts world. When it is first released, it is faint and soft like clouds. When it is fully released, it is extremely resilient and can spread all over the world. It is unstoppable.
Moreover, the Zixia Divine Skill also has the effect of neutralizing abnormal internal energy. Yang Ke is currently suffering from too much internal energy, but fortunately, the Zixia Divine Skill and the Yi Jin Jing both have a fusion effect, which is why he hasn't encountered any problems in his cultivation.
With the addition of the Zixia Divine Skill, Yang Ke's internal energy became even more domineering, profound, and continuous.
"It's time to go to the back mountain."
With Ning Zhongze's matter settled, Yang Ke's only remaining task is to become a martial arts legend. Naturally, he will have to spar with Feng Qingyang this time.
