Chapter 273 - Yue Buqun
"Senior, you're too kind. Although I have a strange talent, if I want to understand the inner workings of the Lone Nine Swords more deeply, I'll still need a long period of time in order to do so." Ling Xiao cupped his fists and said.
Feng Qingyang nodded and said: "With a genius like you in Mount Hua Sword Sect, the day of glory is already just around the corner. I am an old man, and I no longer have the energy to care about these things.
"Senior, although you said that, the person who is in charge of the entire Huashan Mountain right now is not you." Ling Xiao said.
Hearing that, Feng Qingyang was startled, then with his hands behind his back, he turned around and looked down the mountain, and said indifferently: "You're right, the Huashan Mountain is no longer my concern, but, no matter what, I am still Yue Buqun's martial uncle, I don't believe that he won't give me face."
When Ling Xiao heard this, he took a step forward and said, "Senior, since you want to talk to Yue Buqun, why don't you help me out once more?"
"Oh? Do you have any other requests? " After Feng Qingyang heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked.
Ling Xiao said: "I wonder if you've heard of the matter of Yue Buqun's daughter coming to find trouble with this reputed one and then being easily defeated by this reputed one."
Feng Qingyang nodded and said: "I heard, with your ability, defeating that little girl was just a single move. I was wandering around Huashan Mountain yesterday and heard many people talking about the fight between the two of you, and I don't even know what happened?"
Ling Xiao knew what Feng Qingyang was referring to and shook his head. "Yue Lingshan is Yue Buqun's daughter after all, how could I do such a disgraceful thing in front of so many people?"
"That's true. Then, is the request you're talking about related to the two of you?" Do you want me to suppress all these rumors? " Feng Qingyang guessed.
Ling Xiao shook his head, "If it's just these rumors, I don't care at all, but after this incident, everyone in the entire Huashan Mountain must have been discussing it, and it must have reached Yue Buqun's ears. Before this, I have always been wholeheartedly training, lived in seclusion, and did not cause any trouble.
"Now, I have defeated Yue Lingshan with ease, and even caused so many people to misunderstand and suspect. If Yue Buqun knew about this, she would definitely think of a way to find out about my background, but I do not wish to expose myself so quickly." Ling Xiao said.
Hearing that, Feng Qingyang thought for a moment, then nodded his head: "You are right, with your strength, if it gets out, it will definitely attract a lot of attention. If you are not willing to be exposed, then I will help you hide it."
"Thank you for your understanding, senior." Ling Xiao cupped his fists and said.
"According to what you said, Yue Buqun should come looking for you soon. You don't have to bother with it, I will naturally help you take care of it. Feng Qingyang said.
"Okay, please." Ling Xiao said as he nodded his head.
"Hmm, then let's do it like this. You've already learned the Nine Solitary Sword, so my mission is considered to have been completed." Feng Qingyang said with a smile.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao bowed to Feng Qingyang, and said: "Then I will not disturb Senior's rest, junior will take his leave."
After returning to his residence, Ling Xiao did not relax at all. Furthermore, he continued to practice the Nine Solitary Sword Technique, wanting to quickly consolidate and improve while the feeling in his hands was still warm.
And at the entrance of the Huashan Mountain Sect, when Yue Buqun finished listening to his subordinate's report, the surprise on his face was obvious.
"I understand. You can leave now." Yue Buqun waved his hand, reporting the matter to his underlings. After saluting, he left.
Ning Zhong, who was standing at the side, said, "I really didn't expect that there would be such a good successor to the Mount Hua Sword Sect."
"What's so good about that? Isn't it just winning over Shan'er? At most, she can be considered a second-rate expert." Yue Buqun said with disdain.
There were a lot of disciples in Huashan Mountain, and there were no lack of talented and capable people.
Ning Zhong, on the other hand, knew that Yue Buqun was not looking down on his performance. On the contrary, he was very interested in Ling Xiao.
Although it did not burst, Ning Zhong covered his mouth and laughed, "If that's the case, then why did you have to react so violently to a second-rate expert?"
After Yue Buqun heard this, he coughed and said, "No matter what, he is the last disciple of the sword sect, I am showing respect here."
Hearing Yue Buqun's embarrassed retort, Ning Zhong could only smile and shake his head.
After that, Yue Buqun stood up and paced back and forth in the room, frowning as though he was thinking about something.
"I have also paid attention to this Ling Xiao before, and have never shown him any sort of expression, giving people a feeling of nothing happening, and also rarely seeing him come out. I originally thought that Mount Hua Sword Sect would feel lonely because of this, but after his battle with Shan'er, Mount Hua Sword Sect's name gradually appeared in the midst of the disciples' discussions." Yue Buqun still voiced out his worries.
"You think this Ling Xiao is not that simple?" Ning Zhongze asked.
Yue Buqun nodded and said, "That's right, his performance made people doubt him. Originally, everyone had chosen to lower their heads, but why is he facing Shan'er now? It's not like he doesn't know Shan'er's status and position in the Huashan Mountain, and it seems like he is using Shan'er's position to attract everyone's attention to him."
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhongze stood up and said: "Ling Xiao has been living in seclusion for so long, he must have been secretly cultivating, and becoming stronger is the natural result. Could it be that you're not willing to see Mount Hua Sword Sect improve?"
Hearing that, Yue Buqun immediately shook his head and said, "How could that be? The Mount Hua Sword Sect is also one of my Huashan Mountain.
Ning Zhong, on the other hand, snorted lightly, obviously not believing Yue Buqun's words, "It's up to you. In any case, Huashan Mountain has so many disciples watching."
With that said, Ning Zhong Yi ignored Yue Buqun.
Seeing that, Yue Buqun helplessly scratched his head, and then walked out of the room.
"Sect Leader, where are you going?" When the bodyguard outside the courtyard saw Yue Buqun, he walked up and asked.
Yue Buqun waved his hand and said, "I'm going out to relax, you don't need to follow me."
"Yes sir!"
At this time, Ling Xiao was at his own residence practicing the Nine Solitary Sword, when he suddenly felt a burst of Qi approaching quietly.
After pausing for a moment, Ling Xiao laughed and continued to cultivate, it was Feng Qingyang's Spirit Qi, and he probably wanted to help block them.
Because the sword faction was already down and out, there was no one to take care of it. Naturally, it was a place where they could easily enter.
