Chapter 274 - False Sect Leader
Not long after, Ling Xiao sensed another Qi aura, but this Qi was weaker than Feng Qingyang's, at most, it was at the level of a peak First Rated Warrior, far from being a Grandmaster.
Needless to say, Yue Buqun was the only one with such strength in the entire Huashan Mountain.
Outside Ling Xiao's residence, Yue Buqun was walking up the stairs, preparing to knock.
"Long time no see, Yue Buqun." Feng Qingyang's voice sounded out from behind Yue Buqun.
"Martial uncle?" Hearing that, Yue Buqun fiercely turned around, and upon seeing that the person who came was really Feng Qingyang, he immediately cupped his fists and greeted: "I pay my respects to Martial Uncle."
Feng Qingyang nodded and said: "To think you still remember that I'm your Junior Master. Get up."
"Yes!" Martial Uncle, when did you return? Why didn't you inform me? I want people to be prepared. " Yue Buqun said calmly, but in his heart he was panicking. He did not know why Feng Qingyang, who had disappeared for such a long time, suddenly returned to the Huashan Mountain.
Feng Qingyang walked in front of Yue Buqun and said with a smile, "I'm just returning to the Huashan Mountain to take a look. I didn't need you to go through so much trouble, I just happened to arrive at the Mount Hua Sword Sect and wanted to see how it would turn out now."
"So it's like that. I'm also here to see the sword faction disciples. Why don't we go in together?" Yue Buqun said.
Feng Qingyang shook his head and said: "No need, I just came out from here, and met my last successor, Ling Xiao."
"Is that so? What does Martial Uncle think of this Ling Xiao?" After Yue Buqun heard this, he pondered for a moment before he asked.
Feng Qingyang looked at Yue Buqun, and then answered: "He is a good seedling, with talent and intelligence, and is even willing to learn, as long as he has enough time, he can definitely become a strong warrior of his generation, and lead the Mount Hua Sword Sect to glory."
Hearing this, Yue Buqun could not help but be shocked, thinking that was not this person's age, how could Feng Qingyang have such a high evaluation of him.
But on the surface, Yue Buqun was smiling as he said: "I really didn't think that the last successor of the Mount Hua Sword Sect would be able to obtain the deep love of Junior Master. It seems that the rise of the sword sect is not far off."
Feng Qingyang nodded and said: "En, I think so too. It's just that, currently, Ling Xiao is still relatively weak and cannot take on some big responsibilities, so I still need you to take care of him."
Hearing that, Yue Buqun immediately cupped his fists and said: "Don't worry Junior Master, I will definitely take good care of Ling Xiao for you."
"Mn, I've already told Ling Xiao that if he has anything that he needs help with, I'll look for you directly. As for Ling Xiao's place, if he doesn't look for you, you don't need to disturb him. What he needs the most right now is time and space." Feng Qingyang said.
Hearing that, Yue Buqun nodded his head and said: "I understand, I think Junior Master must have taught Ling Xiao some good things, and needs some time to digest."
Hearing that, Feng Qingyang laughed: "It's been so many years, but your little intelligence still hasn't changed. That's right, I've taught him a few new martial arts, and I still need some time to digest them.
"Yes, I understand." Yue Buqun said as he nodded his head.
"Mn, after a period of time, I will come back to visit him. At that time, you can also come and watch Ling Xiao's progress together." Feng Qingyang said.
"Good, I also want to know how great a person that Martial Uncle thinks so highly of is." Yue Buqun said with a smile.
Feng Qingyang stared at Yue Buqun for a while, then said: "Then that's it, see you later."
With that, Feng Qingyang turned and walked down the mountain. Seeing that, Yue Buqun obediently stood there and watched, waiting for Feng Qingyang's figure to disappear. He then heaved a sigh of relief.
After that, Yue Buqun turned around to take a look at Ling Xiao's residence. After a long while, he finally sighed and chose to leave. After all, Feng Qingyang had already said everything he wanted to say, and he did not dare find trouble with Ling Xiao again.
Therefore, at this time, Yue Buqun absolutely would not dare to find trouble with Ling Xiao, even if it was only to probe him. If Feng Qingyang were to find out in the future, he would definitely not have a good ending.
"Ling Xiao, oh Ling Xiao, I want to see how big of a storm you can create." Yue Buqun was naturally unresigned. On the contrary, he was even more interested in Ling Xiao.
Only Ning Zhongze knew that Yue Buqun had returned empty-handed. Although she did not say it out loud, in her heart, she was more cautious, and decided to secretly protect Ling Xiao, the last single child of the Mount Hua Sword Sect. This Yue Buqun actually wanted to take action against him, if this matter was known to the elders of the Huashan Mountain, then it was likely that the position of the Sect Leader, Yue Buqun, would be in danger.
For Ling Xiao's safety and even more so his position as the Sect Leader, Ning Zhong had found a trusted aide to protect Ling Xiao from the shadows.
Very quickly, Ling Xiao detected several more auras surrounding his residence. Even though they were a bit far away, they were also detected by Ling Xiao, and they were all third-rate experts, without any threat to Ling Xiao.
"Interesting, seems like there are quite a few people who have their eyes on me in the Huashan Mountain, but it seems that the people who have come this time do not have any intention to kill. Could it be that there are people who want to protect me?" Ling Xiao looked at the nearby leaves that were fluttering in the wind, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and think.
No matter what, he would be absolutely safe these days. Without Yue Buqun coming to cause trouble, there would be no enemies in the entire Huashan Mountain.
But it was only recently that Ling Xiao knew that there were some people who would definitely not let this matter rest.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ling Xiao went back to his own room and meditated, waiting for Yue Lingshan's dinner.
Not long after, Ling Xiao opened his eyes, stood up and smiled, and opened the door.
Seeing Ling Xiao who just opened the door, Yue Lingshan's actions of knocking the door froze in place, "How did you know I was here?"
"It's just a coincidence. If you were to say how you knew, it would be the fragrance on your body. It's a very nice smell. This place is desolate and boring, and your smell is the most eye-catching." Ling Xiao looked down from above and revealed a faint smile.
In the empty courtyard, the evening breeze was slightly cold. When Yue Lingshan looked at Ling Xiao's handsome face and his enchanting smile, his heart could not help but start beating faster.
"I-I brought you some food." After being stunned for a while, Yue Lingshan immediately lowered his head, and did not dare look straight into Ling Xiao's eyes, and then raised the basket in his hands, and gave it to Ling Xiao.
"Have you eaten?" Ling Xiao extended his hand out and took it, then asked.
Yue Lingshan raised her head, "Ah? I'll go back and eat. "
