Dawn had begun to shine in the eastern sky, and the night did not feel so long after dawn.
A chaotic battle was about to break out.
Li Zhixiang's thoughts were extremely quick, and he could tell that if he were to fight with Ye Mo Han and Liang Rufeng, they would only end up dead. For today's matter, he was afraid that there would be a third party who would try to take advantage of the situation, so he quickly stopped them, "You two, if Ye Mo Han really did not kill my senior, then please come with us to Hua Shan to meet with our martial uncle. The truth will be revealed."
Ye Jianhan's impression of Li Zhixiang was not bad. Hearing him mention his martial uncle, he guessed that it must be Lu Mingzhu. There was still some time before the two month period. It was possible that he was at Mount Hua, so would he bring Liu Yiyi along with him? However, if they went to Mount Hua, it would be almost impossible to kill Lu Mingjie and save Liu Yiyi. If he were to expose the matter regarding Lu Mingjie, he would definitely be scolded and slandered. Ye Mo Han thought for a moment and said, "Are you referring to Grand Elder Lu Mingjie? It's just that I promised to meet him at Jade Spring Academy in a few days' time. If we were to recklessly climb the mountain now, it might not be appropriate. "
Zhang Qingwu reprimanded, "What nonsense are you spouting? When did my senior and granduncle make an agreement with you? "
Hearing Zhang Qingwu say this, Ye Mo Han relaxed. Lu Mingjie really did not tell anyone that he had fought with him. This way, Ye Mo Han was even more certain that Liu Yi Yi was not in Mount Hua, and since Zhang Qingwu came down here today, Lu Mingjie probably didn't know. So how did Zhang Qing Wu know that Ye Yi Han and Liang Rufeng had come here? Who in the Hua Shan Sect was related to the Black Cloaked Sect?
Ye Mo Han looked around at the crowd and said, "Do you know that it's not important? After the agreement between your martial granduncle and I is over, I'll go to Mount Hua myself. There's no need for you to gather so many people to invite me."
"I promise that after he arrives, he will definitely go to Mount Hua. Even if he doesn't want to, I will force him to go." At this moment, the words of Liangrou still carried a lot of weight. At the very least, Chu Li and Li Zhixiang believed what he said very much.
Zhang Qingwu let out a sneer as if mocking Ye Mo Han and his arrogant and conceited attitude. Chu Li and Li Zhixiang exchanged glances. Both of them had the same thoughts, and neither of them wanted to see the Hua Shan disciples fight with Ye Mo Han and Liang Ruo. With Ye Mo Han and An Ran's kung fu skills, even if the Mountain Flower Sword Formation could defeat two people, it would still deal more than twenty casualties.
Li Zhixiang walked up to Zhang Qingwu and whispered in his ear. Zhang Qingwu frowned but didn't say anything. Li Zhixiang softly urged, "I believe he'll be able to handle this matter well. We'll just wait and see."
"I will let you live for a few more days." "" Zhang Qingwu gritted his teeth and said after a long while. Young Master Liang, today, you boasted in front of so many people that you wanted to ensure that Ye Mo would come to Hua Mountain. If he doesn't come to Hua Mountain after all of this is over, then you can come and kill him on his behalf, what do you say? "
Zhang Qingwu obviously didn't believe that Ye Wen Han had an appointment with Lu Mingjie, but she could see that Li Zhi Xiang and Chu Li were unwilling to kill Ye Mo Han at this time. She spoke to Liang Rufeng in such a manner that even though she lost her demeanor as the Sect Leader, she also made an emotional cover up for her concession.
Liang Rufeng did not mind Zhang Qingwu's words at all: "Okay, if Ye Wen is not cold enough, I will kill him on his behalf."
Zhang Qingwu glared at the two and led the group away. Chu Li and Li Zhixiang stayed at the back. Li Zhixiang watched Zhang Qingwu walk far away before he finally said a few words to Ye Mo Han. He said in a kind tone, "Mo Han, if you really didn't kill Martial Uncle Yiming, then I will wash your innocence even if I had to risk my life with Martial Uncle Chu."
After Li Zhixiang said this, Chu Li nodded towards Ye Qinghan. He didn't say anything more and rode with Li Zhixiang to follow Zhang Qingwu. Ye Chanhan had expected Chu Li and Li Zhixiang would treat him like this, and it must be because of his mother, but in the end, these two people had listened to Lu Jie's words. Ye Chanhan clearly understood that almost all the people in the Jianghu Sect paid attention to their personal qualifications. With Lu Mingjie's qualifications in the Hua Shan Sect, even the newly appointed Sect Leader Zhang Qingwu had no choice but to treat him courteously. In this way, Zhang Qingwu was just a famous Sect Leader who had no right to be carried away by Lu Mingjie. However, Ye Qingwu had a faint feeling that Zhang Qingwu wasn't the type of person who would be willing to lower himself to others.
Yuquan Courtyard was a place to visit Mount Hua, named by the ninth female princess of the Tang Rui Sect, the Golden Immortal. Jade Spring Academy was built against the mountain, with a neat layout, blending well with the scenery on the mountain and below. In the courtyard, the huge stone Pan Tuo, the water carried back, the old tree bed, the shade can cover the sun. Amongst them, there was even a long corridor turning back, decorated with paintings of pillars, pavilions and pavilions looking at each other. Jade Spring Academy used to be the territory of the True Faction, but with the rise of the Hua Shan Faction, this place had also become a vassal point of the Hua Shan Faction. Now, there were only three old and weak Taoists left. They cleaned the courtyard here, or entertained the disciples of the Hua Shan Sect walking up and down the mountain. Jade Spring Academy had become the Hua Shan Sect's encampment. However, after being taken over by the Hua Shan Sect, the Jade Spring Academy seemed to have fallen into ruin.
The one who opened the door for Ye Wen was an old Daoist with cloudy eyes and a face full of chicken skin. After the two of them explained their meeting with Lu Mingjie, the old Daoist tremblingly led them to the Worryfree Pavilion at the northwest corner of Jade Spring Academy. The place was rather high and had a wide field of vision. It was an excellent place to enjoy the beautiful scenery. From his attitude towards Ye Mo Han and Liang Zhen Feng, it could be seen how respectful the old Daoist Priest of Jade Spring Academy was towards the people of Hua Shan Sect.
The other two Taoists from Jade Spring Academy, upon hearing that it was a guest of Lu Mingjie's, also hurried over to greet Ye Mo Han and Liang Rufeng. The two people were also elderly. Their daoist-robes were filthy, as if it had been a long time since they last had a meal. Both of them looked weak and dispirited. The three of them actually knew what happened last night. The three of them spoke and gestured as if they saw it with their own eyes. The three of them said that a group of assassins had barged into the town and wasted their lives. It was fortunate that the new Sect Leader Zhang Qingwu and a few of his disciples had killed all those assassins, or else who knows how many families would have been destroyed. Obviously, the three of them did not know that the two in front of them were the ones who were involved in the fierce battle last night, otherwise, they would have been laughed to death by him. Ye Mo Han could not help but smile as he looked at the three of them, but when he thought about the innocent people who had died so tragically last night, he felt a deep hatred for Xie Feipeng and his faction, the Black Cloth Sect.
After chatting for a while, the three old Daoists went to prepare food for Ye Mo Han and Liang Wangfeng. Not long after, they brought some meat and wine to the table. The Jade Spring Academy, which was governed by three old Daoists, did not lack a single fowl, duck, cow, lamb or fish.
Ye Mo looked at the dishes on the table and asked, "Where did you get your money from?"
"One part was donated by the local people, the other part was allocated by the Hua Shan faction." The old Daoist opened the door for the two with a face full of pride.
"These dishes were all prepared long ago?" Liang Rufeng interrupted.
The other two Daoists hastily nodded their heads. Ye Chanhan poured himself a cup of wine and gulped it down. By the time Ruofeng wanted to stop him, it was already too late.
The Taoist opened the door with an awkward smile and explained, "From time to time, there will be disciples of Mount Hua coming down. We need to prepare at all times, in case the ones going about business down the mountain get hungry and affect our work."
"You don't need to say so much. You only need to tell me one thing, and that is, do you work for Xie Feipeng or for Lu Mingjie?" Liang Rufeng sneered, his hand had already grasped the hilt of his sword.
The expressions of the three old Daoists changed, and their appearance also changed along with it. At first, they looked like an old man who had reached the end of his life, and could turn stiff at any time. At this moment, it was as if their bodies were brimming with energy, and their will was at a thousand miles away. Ye Mo Han suddenly fell on the table. Could it be that a single cup of wine could make a person drunk?
Liangrou looked at Ye Mo Han and smiled faintly, staring at the three old Daoists as if he was waiting for an answer.
The old Daoist opened the door and took out two three inch long Plum Blossom Spurs from his waist. He said, "It's only right that we work for Old Man Lu. For Xie Feipeng, it's only because he gave us too much money."
Another Daoist said, "Old Man Lu probably wants all of you to die as well, so it's the same no matter who you work for."
The speaker's weapons were a pair of three-inch-long trident swords. The other Daoist Priest's weapons were also three-inch-long, but they were a pair of black iron rods.
The Taoist with the metal rod looked at Ye Mo and said, "Are you not going to care about the life and death of your companion?"
"Even if it is poisonous wine, you all still won't be able to poison him to death." After seeing the weapons of the three men, Liang Rufeng recalled a story that his uncle had once told him. In the past, Wu Dang had brought three people to be teachers. Their master was the former Sect Leader of Wu Dang, Yang Yifeng. Yang Yifeng had bestowed three names, Qi Nu, Xie, Hate, and Qi, upon these three names. Before entering Wudang, these three were notorious in the martial arts world. However, Yang Yifeng was a merciful person and wanted the three of them to convert to Wudang so that they would no longer harm the martial arts world. Were these three old Taoists in front of him really the three rejections that had been missing for so many years?
The Daoist Priest holding the Plum Blossom Thorn laughed sinisterly and said, "I don't believe that he will not die after drinking my Bone Corrosion life-stealing wine."
"Are you guys really the Three Abandons?"
"Haha, I never thought that this kid would actually know our name."
The three of them were overjoyed to hear Liang Rufeng call out their names.
