Chapter 110 Means "Who is this girl?" Seeing a strange face, Yue Buqun asked. "Almost forgot!" Yue Lingshan excitedly pulled Qu Feiyan over and introduced her, "Dad, this girl's surname is Qu, and her given name is Feiyan. She is from Hengshan City! She is only fourteen years old this year." "When Second Senior Brother was injured, she was the one who saved his life." "Now, her family has passed away, and she is left alone with nowhere to go." "I was thinking that we might as well let her join Huashan Sect and become a female disciple." "We usually take care of her, which can be regarded as repaying her kindness." "Qu Feiyan, your last name is Qu?"
Yue Buqun murmured to himself and immediately understood. "What's the relationship between this girl and Naqu Yang?" "No..." Yue Lingshan was about to lie when she was stopped by Jin Renfeng. "Master! This girl is Naqu Yang's granddaughter." Jin Renfeng admitted frankly. Now that the master was suspicious, with Yue Buqun's scheming, it would be useless to hide it. It would be better to just tell him everything. Seeing him confess directly, Yue Lingshan looked anxious. "Why did you say that, Senior Brother? Dad will definitely not agree if Miss Qu's identity is exposed." She was worried that if Yue Buqun knew Qu Feiyan's identity, he would refuse to let her in. "Evil Cult!" Yue Buqun's face changed and he shouted, "What have you done? Why did you even bring back the granddaughter of the Demon Cult elder Qu Yang?" Jin Renfeng said calmly, "Master, we didn't do anything out of the ordinary!" "Although Miss Qu was born in the Demon Sect, she has not yet joined the Demon Sect." "We brought Miss Qu here because she is still young, has not joined the evil sect to do evil, and has done us a favor, so we thought of arranging a place for her." Hearing this, Yue Buqun calmed down and said calmly, "But she is from the Demonic Cult after all." "But she is not a member of the Demon Cult!" Jin Renfeng insisted, "Besides, she is still young and still has a chance to step into the right path. We can't let her return to the Demon Cult alone!" Yue Buqun remained silent for a while, then he spoke, "Besides us, who else knows Miss Qu's identity?" "Fei Bin and Ding Mian of the Songshan School also know about it." Jin Renfeng responded. Yue Buqun slapped his forehead.
If outsiders knew Qu Feiyan's identity, Qu Feiyan's origin in the demon sect would always be a hidden danger. "Master, we don't need to care too much about our origins." Jin Renfeng advised. "Doesn't Shaolin Temple accept everyone? For hundreds of years, no matter if they are evil or demonic, as long as they enter Shaolin Temple, the monks dare to accept them directly." "Comparatively, it's really not a big deal for us to accept Miss Qu!" Yue Buqun scolded, "What kind of sect is Shaolin Temple? It is the leader of the righteous way. How can we compare with them?" "Master, you are trying to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige." Jin Renfeng said with a smile, "With the two of us, how can we be weaker than the Shaolin Temple?" With Jin Renfeng's current strength, it would be no problem for him to defeat Shaolin Temple. If it weren't for his kindness, any other time traveler would have killed Shaolin first and then destroyed Wudang. But Jin Renfeng was not a man who liked to kill, and the people from Shaolin and Wudang did not provoke him, so he did not take action. Yue Buqun shook his head helplessly. Although he was quite pleased with these words, he did not show it on his face. After a long pause, he sighed. "Well! Since you have done me a favor, it's not a bad idea to accept it." "I just don't know if she is willing to join my Huashan Sect." Qu Feiyan stepped forward and said, "I am willing to join Huashan and follow its teachings and rules." After saying this, she bent her knees and was about to kneel down and kowtow. However, Yue Lingshan stopped him directly. "Miss Qu, if you want to join the Huashan Sect, you should worship my mother instead of my father." "Female hero Ning from the Huashan faction?" Qu Feiyan asked. “That’s right. Huashan Sect now has a rule that female disciples generally have to become my mother’s disciples, so as to avoid the inconvenience of teaching swordsmanship,” Yue Lingshan explained. Qu Feiyan nodded. Right now, she only has two close people, Jin Renfeng and Yue Lingshan, so naturally she trusts them quite a bit. “Speaking of which, Daddy, why are you so happy to accept me as your disciple this time?” Yue Lingshan asked curiously, “I thought you would reject Junior Sister Qu after learning her identity!” Yue Buqun sighed. "Why don't you ask your senior brother? Compared to saving the Liu family in public, what's the trouble at the moment?" Hearing this, Yue Lingshan chuckled. She almost forgot that her senior brother had just done a good deed. Compared with accepting Qu Feiyan, openly opposing the Songshan Sect and protecting the Liu family was obviously worse. Jin Renfeng smiled awkwardly. He didn't expect that his master would use him as an example. “By the way, you called Miss Qu ‘junior sister’ just now, that’s not right. According to the rules, she should be your senior sister.” Yue Buqun reminded.
Yue Lingshan smiled and said, "That won't work, because I'm your daughter and I've been ranked last since I was a child." "I just accept the previous senior brothers and sisters." "But Feifei is younger than me now, so I can't be her junior sister." "From now on, I want to be the Senior Sister. Junior Brother Lin and Junior Sister Qu, both of you have to call me Senior Sister. If you accept one hundred or two hundred disciples in the future, they must also call me Senior Sister." Lin Pingzhi, who was standing by, bowed deeply and said, "Senior Sister Yue, I was just accepted as your disciple today by your master. The one who entered first is the elder, so I am naturally your junior brother." Yue Lingshan was overjoyed and turned to her father and said, "Dad, he called me Senior Sister voluntarily. I didn't force him." Yue Buqun smiled and said, "He has just entered the sect, and you are talking to him like this. Naturally, he will be frightened and recognize you as his senior sister!" Yue Lingshan chuckled softly and also found this statement interesting. . . . . . . After the incident in Hengshan City was concluded, the Huashan Sect took Linghu Chong back and headed north on a large ship. They traveled all the way to western Henan before changing to the land route. Linghu Chong lay in the cart to recuperate from his injuries, which gradually healed. Soon they arrived at the foot of the Jade Maiden Peak of Mount Huashan. The coffins of Lin Zhennan and his wife were temporarily placed in a small temple on the side of the peak, and they would be buried on another day. Gao Minggen and Lu Dayou went to the top of the mountain to report the news first, and the remaining twenty or so disciples of Huashan Sect came down to greet their master. Jin Renfeng introduced Lin Pingzhi to his fellow disciples one by one, and everyone greeted each other. When the group reached the top of the mountain, they saw a beautiful middle-aged woman approaching slowly. Yue Lingshan ran over and threw herself into her arms, shouting, "Mom, I have a new junior brother and a new junior sister this time." While smiling, she pointed at Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan. Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan came forward to pay their respects. Ning Zhongze smiled and said, "Very good! Get up, get up." Then she smiled at Yue Buqun and said, "In the past, every time you went down the mountain, you would recruit at least three or four disciples. Why did you only recruit two at this Hengshan Conference?" Yue Buqun smiled and said, "Quality is more important than quantity. These two disciples are extraordinary." Ning Zhongze looked at Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan and couldn't help but praise them. "They are handsome and pretty, quite a sight." Then, Ning Zhongze looked at Linghu Chong again and asked, "You are injured like this, did you get into a fight with someone again?" "Master's Wife, you will understand!" Jin Renfeng said jokingly. "But Junior Brother, this time it was not considered a fight, it was considered a heroic act." Linghu Chong smiled awkwardly. "You look so bad? Are you seriously injured?" Ning Zhongze asked with concern.
Linghu Chong smiled and said, "It's much better now. If I wasn't lucky this time, I would have almost missed seeing Master's Wife." Ning Zhongze glared at him again and said, "This is to teach you that there are always people better than you. You should study martial arts well in the future." Linghu Chong responded. "Who hurt Chong'er this time?" Ning Zhongze asked. "It's Tian Boguang!" Jin Renfeng responded. "So it's that rapist. I heard that he has extraordinary martial arts skills and is also the best in the martial arts world with his sharp sword. In terms of martial arts, he is not inferior to the leader of a sect." Ning Zhongze said, "It's not unfair that Chong'er fell into his hands." "When we get some news, we'll go find that rapist and seek revenge." "Master's Wife, there's no need for that!" Jin Renfeng said with a smile, "That Tian Boguang harmed my junior brother, and I chopped off his limbs long ago, and he became a cripple. He's now locked up in the back car." Ning Zhongze nodded and said with satisfaction, "You're quite efficient." Afterwards, the group entered the Yousoubuwei Pavilion and told each other about their experiences since they said goodbye. The six female disciples were envious when they heard Yue Lingshan describe what she saw in Fuzhou and Hengshan. Lu Dayou boasted to his fellow disciples about how his elder brother had suppressed Yu Canghai, swept through the Qingcheng Sect, severely wounded Tian Boguang, and how he had fought against the Songshan Sect and saved the Liu family. All the disciples exclaimed in surprise when they heard this. After everyone had some snacks and drank some tea, they started to prepare for the initiation ceremony for Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan. The group came to the back hall to pay homage to the ancestor's spirit tablet. Due to the addition of a female disciple, Qu Feiyan, the ceremony was presided over jointly by Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze. As usual, the two of them bowed to the ancestral tablet and recited the prayer again. Afterwards, Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan kowtowed and became disciples, and the two of them officially joined the Huashan Sect. Yue Buqun said: "Jin Renfeng, recite the sect's rules so that you can teach your fellow disciples." Jin Renfeng responded and recited the Huashan Sect's Seven Commandments again. Since he became the eldest disciple, the Seven Commandments of Mount Hua have become his routine. Every time a new disciple came to become his disciple, Jin Renfeng would recite the commandments silently. After hearing the command, Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan kowtowed in greeting. The initiation ceremony ends here. However, Yue Buqun did not let everyone leave. He stood up and turned to look at Linghu Chong and Jin Renfeng. After looking him up and down, he spoke, "Chong'er, how many of the Seven Commandments of Mount Hua did you break this time when you came down the mountain?"
Linghu Chong was shocked and immediately knelt down in front of the incense table, saying, "I admit my guilt. I did not listen to the teachings of my master and mistress, and violated the sixth precept of arrogance and conceit. I offended my fellow Taoists and killed Luo Renjie of the Qingcheng Sect in the Huiyan Tower of Hengshan Mountain." Yue Buqun snorted, his face looking very serious. "Luo Renjie took advantage of your misfortune and humiliated you, but you preferred death to submission, which was the right thing for a man to do, so that's fine. But why did you call Tian Boguang a brother, and even speak rudely to the Hengshan Sect, saying something like 'When you see a nun, you will lose every bet'?" "If that's the case, how do you want our sect and Hengshan Sect to get along?" Linghu Chong said, "I know my crime. I just wanted to save the junior sister from Hengshan Sect. I had no choice but to say such nonsense." Yue Buqun said, "You wanted Junior-Junior-Nephew Yilin to leave. Although your intention was good, you had to say something hurtful when there were so many other things to say. You are too frivolous. This matter is already known to everyone in the Five Mountains Sword Sect. People will definitely say behind your back that you are not a gentleman and blame me for not disciplining you properly." Yue Buqun continued, “You were in the Jade Courtyard recovering from your injuries, so you could say you had no choice, but how big of a risk did you take to hide Junior-Martial-Sister-in-Law Yilin in your bed? If the truth came to light, our Huashan Sect would be discredited, which would be secondary. But if the reputation of Hengshan Sect, which has been good for hundreds of years, was ruined in an instant, how could we be fair to them?” Linghu Chong broke out in a cold sweat and said in a trembling voice, "When I think of this incident afterwards, I also break out in a cold sweat." "Disciple guilty!" Yue Buqun sighed and said, "Linghu Chong, your coming down the mountain this time has greatly damaged the reputation of our sect. I punish you to face the wall for a year and think about this matter carefully from beginning to end." Linghu Chong bowed and said, "Yes, disciple respectfully accepts the punishment." Jin Renfeng couldn't help but show sympathy when he saw his master picking on Linghu Chong again and again. In fact, the master's purpose has never been whether Linghu Chong made a mistake, but whether he can punish him and lock him up on the Cliff of Repentance. This was the key operation of Yue Buqun to bring together Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi. The fundamental purpose was to punish Linghu Chong, who was in good terms with Yue Lingshan, and send him to the mountain, so that he and Yue Lingshan would be separated. He used the method of long-distance relationship to weaken the relationship between Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan, and then let Lin Pingzhi live with them day and night to take advantage of the opportunity. After a year, the relationship between Yue Lingshan and Linghu Chong faded. The marriage between the Yue and Lin families became a natural outcome. "Poor Junior Brother Linghu, with Master around, no matter how hard you try, Master will forcibly separate you and Junior Sister." Jin Renfeng felt emotional. I marvel at Yue Buqun's sophisticated methods and am amazed at his control over emotions. With a casual touch and covert means, he easily separated a pair of childhood sweethearts. Compared with Zuo Lengchan, Yue Buqun's methods are obviously on a higher level. Just as Jin Renfeng shook his head, Yue Buqun suddenly said, "Ren Feng, your master has not yet settled your account with you!" Upon hearing this, Jin Renfeng was stunned. How does this have anything to do with me? The master wants to separate the younger junior sister and the second junior brother, so why does he involve him? "Master, where did I make a mistake?" Jin Renfeng asked. "How dare you bring that up!" Yue Buqun scolded, "You were so arrogant when you came down the mountain this time that you not only severely injured the head of Qingcheng Sect, Yu Canghai, but also made enemies with Songshan Sect and dragged my Huashan Sect into the fight in Liu's mansion. Tell me, what crime have you committed?" (End of this chapter)
