Chapter 70 Punishment "But I didn't expect that on the way, Second Senior Brother had a conflict with the Four Beauties of Qingcheng, and they even fought each other." "Master Yu wrote a letter to Master, and the words he used were quite polite. He said that he had not disciplined his disciples strictly and had offended your sect's senior disciples, so he wrote this letter to apologize." "On the surface it's an apology, but in reality it's still a complaint to the master." "Now the master is furious and has made Second Senior Brother kneel outside the door for half a day." "All the brothers and sisters pleaded unanimously, but it was useless." "This is strange!" Yue Lingshan was puzzled. "Second Senior Brother usually has nothing to do with the Qingcheng Sect disciples. Why did they have a conflict this time?" "This, this——" Liang Fa was speechless for a moment. "If you know, just tell me." Seeing his hesitation, Jin Renfeng said, "We are all brothers and sisters from the same family, what is there to hide?" Liang Fa gave a bitter smile. "The beginning of this matter is also confusing. On that day, Second Senior Brother was drinking in a restaurant. He saw Hou Renying and Hong Renxiong from the Qingcheng Sect coming upstairs." "Second Senior Brother got angry just by hearing their names. He drank and shouted, 'Bear, wild boar, the four beasts of Qingcheng'. Hou and Hong were naturally furious and rushed forward to fight, but Second Senior Brother kicked them off the restaurant."
"Those two guys, Hou Renying and Hong Renxiong, were kicked by Second Senior Brother and they fell seven or eight times. We don't even know who kicked them." "Second Senior Brother also took the opportunity to escape. I thought no one would know about it, but I didn't expect that the Qingcheng Sect would find out about it afterwards." Upon hearing that her senior brother had taken advantage and beaten the Qingcheng disciples dizzy, Yue Lingshan burst out laughing. Jin Renfeng frowned and scolded, "What's so ridiculous about this? It's obvious that Second Junior Brother is deliberately causing trouble. It's just his fault." Liang Fa scratched his head. Although this was the truth, Linghu Chong was after all their second senior brother, and the Qingcheng Sect was not familiar with them, so there had to be a certain degree of closeness and distance between them. "Then, Senior Brother, should we go and persuade Master?" "Why should we persuade him? This time it's all Linghu Chong's fault and he should be punished. What's there to persuade him for?" Jin Renfeng said coldly. "You should be punished." Liang Fa looked embarrassed, "But you have been kneeling for half a day. If it lasts any longer, I am afraid you will get hurt." "It's only half a day's work. I can't hurt him. Do you think his Huashan internal energy is just for decoration?" Jin Renfeng didn't care. "I thought the punishment from Master was too light. Linghu Chong should be taught a lesson for being so irrational and causing trouble for no reason." Liang Fa smiled angrily. He had wanted to ask his senior brother to go and persuade the master, but he didn't expect his senior brother to have this attitude. However, he did not dare to talk back. In the Huashan Sect, the prestige of the eldest brother was second only to that of the master and his mistress. Most of the martial arts of the fellow disciples were taught by the eldest brother on behalf of the master. It can be said that the eldest brother is half a master in the Huashan Sect. Seeing that his prayers were fruitless, Liang Fa had no choice but to leave. "Big Brother, I think Second Brother should be punished, but what if Dad gets angry and hurts Second Brother?" Yue Lingshan looked worried. "After all, if Daddy gets angry, he won't hold back on his blows." "Don't worry, little sister." Jin Renfeng comforted him. "Don't think that Master is so angry, but in Master's heart, I am afraid that he is also happy. After all, although Second Junior Brother's behavior is rude, it can be regarded as bringing honor to our sect." "After all, the Four Beauties of Qingcheng cannot stop our second disciple. If we tell others about it, it will bring honor to the Huashan Sect." "Now Master is only punishing on the surface, but in reality it won't be too severe."
"So that's how it is!" Yue Lingshan suddenly realized. "No wonder you're not in a hurry at all, Senior Brother." “Let Second Junior Brother kneel down again and learn his lesson. When Master has played enough tricks tomorrow, he will probably let him go.” Jin Renfeng said calmly. "We can go and persuade Master then, and the matter will be resolved." . . . . . . The next morning, Jin Renfeng and Yue Lingshan went to Yousuobuweixuan early. In front of the door, Linghu Chong was kneeling on the ground, covered with a quilt and his face was pale. It was still the first month of the lunar calendar, the mountain wind was howling, and the weather was cold. He knelt outside for a day and a night, and even with the support of his inner strength, he was still suffering. Seeing Jin Renfeng and the other two appear, Linghu Chong was overjoyed and shouted, "Big Brother, Little Sister, you are finally here, go and beg Master to forgive me!" Jin Renfeng said seriously, "I can ask for help, but Junior Brother, do you admit your mistake this time?" Linghu Chong gave a bitter smile. "I know I'm wrong." "But those Qingcheng Sect disciples are really annoying." "Those guys are just straw bag characters. In terms of martial arts, I'm afraid they can't even compare to my junior sister." "But these four idiots, because they have a nice name, got the name of the Four Beauties of Qingcheng and called themselves heroes." "It would be fine if you just advertised it on weekdays, but you have to go to the restaurant to show off." "It is really infuriating to see people who seek fame and reputation like this." Hearing Linghu Chong comparing herself, Yue Lingshan glared at Linghu Chong calmly. "What does it have to do with you if he is just seeking fame and reputation?" Jin Renfeng frowned and said, "As long as he doesn't do anything evil, no matter what he does, it has nothing to do with you and me." "Normally, you are a reasonable person. Why are you so impulsive this time?" "Junior brother, I don't know either!" Linghu Chong scratched his head. Jin Renfeng glanced at him. "I think you might be jealous and coveting his fame!" Linghu Chong was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly. "Come to think of it, if it wasn't for the senior brother's reminder, I'm afraid I wouldn't have realized it." "I am indeed a little jealous of their reputation." "My martial arts skills are obviously much better than theirs, but I have remained unknown until now. When I saw them calling themselves heroes, I got angry and did something wrong." "Junior brother, you should learn from this lesson and behave uprightly in the future." Jin Renfeng taught him. "Junior brother, thank you for your advice." This time, Linghu Chong admitted his mistake sincerely. Jin Renfeng was satisfied only when he saw that Linghu Chong admitted his mistake.
Then, he and Yue Lingshan walked into the pavilion together. It was still early, but Yue Ning and his wife had already gotten up and were sitting in the hall. A group of fellow disciples also gathered in the hall, probably to plead for Linghu Chong. Jin Renfeng and Yue Lingshan saluted the two. Yue Lingshan immediately stepped forward and pleaded, "Dad, you see Second Senior Brother has been kneeling for a day and a night, please forgive him!" “Let him go? Let him go out and cause trouble again?” Yue Buqun said coldly, his face serious. "Second Brother has realized his mistake now. Besides, even if he made a serious mistake, kneeling for a day and a night is enough." Yue Buqun snorted coldly and ignored him. Normally, Yue Lingshan was always favored by Yue Buqun. Whenever any of his fellow disciples got into trouble, Yue Buqun would let them go as long as she spoke out for mercy. But he did not expect that it would be useless this time. (End of this chapter)
