Chapter - 180 The Importance of Ethical Code (3)

Zhao Zhijing laughed and said loudly, "Correct, I swore I won't reveal this to a fifth person but in front of me there is a sixth, a seventh. It's not a fifth person when there's hundreds and thousands present. Naturally, I can tell everyone about this immoral thing that you two did."

Zhao Zhijing had seen the two naked, in the middle of the night in a flower thicket, how could he think that they were practicing advanced martial arts? It came out now due to anger, and he didn't care if he was falsely accusing them or not.

That night, Xiao Longnu was so angry that she threw up a pool of blood, almost losing her life. Now she heard him twisting his words and arguing his way, she couldn't stand it any longer, she stretched out her hand and lightly grabbed his chest, she said, "You'd better stop talking rubbish." She had completed the "Jade Heart Manual" and now the palm came out of nowhere, that, plus the fact that the "Jade Heart Manual" is the Black Star (the matching opposite) of Quanzhen's kung fu made the move extraordinary. Xiao Longnu's hand had went through Zhao Zhijing's urgent attempt to repel it, grabbing his chest.

Zhao Zhijing blocked thin air and was startled, but the opponent's palm just touched his chest briefly and then immediately departed, he didn't feel anything and didn't take it to heart, he chuckled and said, "Why are you touching me? I'm not…" Before he finished, he's eyes suddenly went blank, a 'peng' sound was heard as he fell onto the ground, he had suffered a severe injury.

When Sun Bu'Er and Hao Datong saw their martial nephew hurt, they dashed forward to see his chi and blood had been forced upwards, his face was completely red as if he was drunk. Sun Bu'Er chuckled and said, "Fine, your Ancient Tomb sect really wants to start something with my Quanzhen sect." She held out a long sword, about to start a fight with Xiao Longnu.

Guo Jing urgently got out of his seat and stood between the two, he said, "We're on the same side, stop this fighting." He said to Yang Guo, "Guo'er, both sides are your Master and elders. Advise them to return to their seats, and then we can quietly clear things up."

Xiao Longnu had never thought that such a thing as not keeping to your word and breaking a promise existed, she was really troubled, she pulled Yang Guo's hand with a frown, saying, "Guo'er, let's leave, we won't see these people ever again!"

Yang Guo followed her lead and took two steps forward.

Sun Bu'Er's sword moved and she shouted, "You've hurt someone and now you want to leave?"

Guo Jing saw that both sides were about to fight, he said seriously, "Guo'er, you must stop your feet, you must be a good person, don't destroy yourself and your name. I was the one who named you; do you know what the word 'Guo' means?"

When Yang Guo heard this, his heart trembled, he suddenly remembered all the events from when he was a child, thinking about all the sad and painful events he's been through, and then he thought, "How come it was Uncle Guo who named me?"

Guo Jing loved Yang Guo very much, it was unavoidable that he would want to plead and scold him deeply and severely. Today he saw Yang Guo show himself in front of all these heroes, he was feeling delight and content when he suddenly found out that Yang Guo had done something he should never have done. His heart was anxious and urgent, his tone was especially strict, he continued, "Your deceased mother must have told you this before, your name is 'Guo', what are the words that accompanies it?"

Yang Guo remembered that his mother had told him this before, but then he was young, no one had used these words in regards him, he himself almost forgot it. Yang Guo replied, "They're 'Gai Zhi'."

Guo Jing said with a severe tone, "Correct, and what does it mean?"

Yang Guo thought for a while and remembered the literature that Huang Rong had taught him when he was younger, he said, "Uncle Guo is saying that 'if I have made mistakes then I must correct them'."

Guo Jing's tone now became gentler, he said, "Guo'er, people make mistakes, mistakes can be changed; this is the greatest advice. They are the words of the first virtuous men and sages. You've been disrespectful towards your seniors; this is a big mistake, think well about it."

Yang Guo said, "If I was wrong, of course I would change. But he…" He pointed to Zhao Zhijing and said, "He beat me, insulted me, lied to me and hated me, how can he still be my Master? Gu Gu and I are clean and innocent, the day can be our witness. I respect her, and love her, could it be that's wrong?" He said this boldly, with justice on his side.

Guo Jing's intelligence and verbal ability couldn't compare with his, how could he argue with him? But he knew that his actions were very wrong yet he didn't know how to tell him clearly, he could only say, "This… this… you're wrong…"

Huang Rong walked forward slowly and softly said, "Guo'er, Uncle Guo is looking out for your well being, you must understand this."

Yang Guo was moved by her soft and gentle words; he lowered his voice and said, "I know that Uncle Guo has always treated me extremely well." His eyes became red, he almost cried.

Huang Rong said, "He's giving you sincere advice, don't take this the wrong way."

Yang Guo said, "I don't understand, what, exactly, have I done wrong?"

Huang Rong's face sank and said, "You really don't understand, or are you deliberately stirring things up?"

Yang Guo was angry in his heart, he thought, "You have treated me well, I have paid you back well, what more do you want from me?" He bit down on his lips and didn't reply.

Huang Rong said, "Fine, since you want me to tell you the truth, I won't go around in circles. Since Miss Long is your Master, she is your senior, you cannot be lovers."

This rule was not unheard of by Yang Guo as it was by Xiao Longnu, but he couldn't accept it; why couldn't Gu Gu be his wife just because she taught him some kung fu? Why even Uncle Guo doesn't believe that he and Gu Gu have done anything immoral? When he thought about this, his anger erupted. He was already someone who wasn't afraid of neither heaven nor earth; now that he's being accused, he was even bolder and loudly said, "What have I done that has hindered you people? Who have I hurt? Gu Gu has taught me kung fu but I still want her to be my wife. Even if you chop me up into a thousand pieces I will still want her to be my wife."

These words shocked and startled those who heard it. The Song at that time adhered to customs and traditions strictly; where on earth have they heard such fearless, wanton and rebellious logic? The person that Guo Jing respected the most was his Master, when he heard this, his anger erupted and he dashed forward, stretching out his arm, grabbing his chest.

Xiao Longnu was shocked and stretched out her hand to block this grab. Guo Jing's martial arts were much stronger than Xiao Longnu's and now he was furious; he used all his strength, a lead and a wave and he had flung her over ten feet away. He stretched out his arm and grabbed Yang Guo's 'Celestial Charge' pressure point; with his left hand raised he shouted, "You animal, you dare to say such heresy?"
