At nightfall, Linghu Chong arrived on the Shaolin Temple and informed the welcoming monk that he was there to take the stays of Dingxian and Dingyi Shi Tai again to Heng-Shan. The welcoming monk went in to report, and after a while, he got here out to inform Linghu Chong, “Abbot stated: The 2 Shi Tai’s stays had been cremated already. The monks within the temple at the moment are studying scriptures to respectfully ship them on their means. We’ll ship somebody to ship the ashes of the 2 Shi Tai to Heng-Shan.”

Linghu Chong walked into the corridor the place they had been praying for the 2 Shi Tai. He knelt in entrance of the altar with the ashes and the funeral pill*, and respectfully kowtowed a number of instances. He inwardly prayed, “So long as Linghu Chong lives, I’ll carry Heng-Shan College ahead with all my coronary heart and would possibly. I will not lose Shi Tai’s belief in me.” Later, he did not ask to see Nice Grasp Abbot however instantly went out of the temple after parting methods with the welcoming monk.

When he reached the underside of the mountain, it was nonetheless snowing closely so he rapidly discovered a farmer’s home to remain for the evening. At daybreak, he continued his journey to the north. When he arrived at a metropolis, he purchased a horse to journey on. On a regular basis, he travelled for round seventy to eighty li and as quickly as he stopped by at an inn, he instantly moved his qi in keeping with the tactic taught by Ren Woxing and slowly unblocked his meridian. After seven days, his left arm was in a position to transfer once more usually.

Sooner or later whereas he was touring, he was at a wine store consuming wine when he observed individuals busily strolling right here and there on the road. Many households had been getting ready for the New 12 months and there was an air of happiness round them. Linghu Chong poured himself one other drink and thought, “On Huashan, Grasp-Spouse has at all times led all of the martial brothers and sisters in cleansing up, grinding the flour for New 12 months’s cake, managing the New 12 months’s pink pockets*, and stitching new robes. Little martial sister can be chopping many paper-cut window decorations. How energetic these New Years had been. This yr, I am right here all on my own consuming this stuffy wine.”

has a paper minimize instance.)

As he was feeling melancholy, he abruptly heard the sound of individuals developing the steps. One individual stated, “I am very thirsty. It would not be dangerous consuming a number of cups right here.”

One other individual stated, “If you happen to’re not thirsty, might or not it’s that it is dangerous to drink?”

One other individual replied, “Consuming wine is consuming wine, thirsty is thirsty. How are you going to combine these two issues collectively?”

One other individual added, “The extra you drink wine, the thirstier you will get. Not solely you’ll be able to’t combine these two issues collectively, they’re utterly totally different.”

When Linghu Chong heard this, he knew that it was the Peach Valley Six Fairies who had simply arrived. He felt actually comfortable and shouted, “Six Peach Valley brothers, rapidly come up and drink wine along with me.”

Out of the blue, a ‘hu hu’ sound reverberated across the room because the Peach Valley Six Fairies flew up the steps. They rushed at Linghu Chong and grabbed his shoulders and arms. Then one after the other referred to as out, “I noticed him first.” “I grabbed him first.” “I spoke first, Grasp Linghu heard me first.” “If I did not say that I needed to return right here, how might we’ve met him?”

Linghu Chong felt odd. He laughingly requested, “What tips are you six enjoying at?”

Peachtree Flower Fairy went to the wine store’s window and referred to as out loudly, “Younger nuns, large nuns, outdated nuns, not outdated not younger nuns! I, Peachtree Flower Fairy, have discovered Grasp Linghu, rapidly hand me over the one thousand silver taels.”

Peachtree Department Fairy additionally went in the direction of the window and referred to as out, “I, Peachtree Department Fairy, discovered him first. Large younger nuns, rapidly give me all of the silver.”

Peachtree Root Fairy and Peachtree Fruit Fairy every grabbed one among Linghu Chong’s arms and shouted, “I discovered him first!” “It was me! It was me!”

Then, from the tip of the road, some feminine voices referred to as out, “You have discovered hero Linghu?”

“I discovered Linghu Chong, rapidly hand over the cash,” Peachtree Fruit Fairy referred to as out.

“One hand will get the cash, one hand delivers the products!” Peachtree Trunk Fairy shouted.

“Proper, proper! If these small nuns do not need to pay their money owed, then we’ll conceal Linghu Chong away and never give him to them,” Peachtree Root Fairy agreed.

Peachtree Department Fairy requested, “How can we conceal him away? Can we shut him off someplace and do not let these small nuns to fulfill him?”

There have been sounds of individuals going up the steps as a number of females rushed up. The primary individual to succeed in the touchdown was actually a disciple of the Heng-Shan College, Yihe. Behind her had been 4 extra nuns and two younger women, who had been Zheng E and Qin Juan. When the seven of them noticed Linghu Chong, their faces full of happiness. Some had been calling him ‘hero Linghu’, some had been calling ‘large brother Linghu’, and there have been additionally some who referred to as him ‘Grasp Linghu’. Peachtree Trunk Fairy and his brothers prolonged their arms to dam the trail to Linghu Chong. “If you happen to do not give us the thousand silver taels, then we cannot ship the products.”

Linghu Chong laughingly stated, “Peach Valley Six brothers, how did these one thousand silver taels come about?”

Peachtree Department Fairy answered, “We met them simply earlier than and so they requested me whether or not I’ve seen you or not. I stated that quickly I have never met you but, however we met you not lengthy after that.”

Qin Juan stated, “This uncle is mendacity. He stated: ‘I have never. Linghu Chong’s toes are alive so it is almost definitely that he is on the finish of the earth now. How might we’ve met him?'”

“Improper, unsuitable. We had the foresight already that we had been going to fulfill Linghu Chong right here,” Peachtree Flower Fairy disagreed.

Peachtree Trunk Fairy added, “That is proper! In any other case, why would we come right here and never some other place?”

Linghu Chong laughed. “I’ve guessed it. These martial sisters are in search of me so that they entrusted the six of you to assist them search for me. You then stated that you just needed one thousand silver taels, is not that proper?”

“We requested for one thousand silver taels. We all know it is an exorbitant worth. But when they may do enterprise, then it should be value it. Who knew that they are very beneficiant, this middle-aged nun stated: ‘Alright, as soon as you have succeeded find hero Linghu, we’ll offer you one thousand silver taels.’ Are these phrases true?” Peachtree Trunk Fairy defined.

Yihe answered, “Right. As soon as they discovered hero Linghu, then Heng-Shan College will give them one thousand silver taels.” Six palms instantly shot out and the Peach Valley Six Fairies stated on the identical time, “Hand it over.”

“We’re Buddhists. Why would we supply a lot silver on us? I would wish to hassle the six of you to go to Heng-Shan to fetch it,” Yihe stated.

She reasoned that the Peach Valley Six Fairies would not need to worry. Who would’ve thought that they might suppose it over and answered on the identical time, “Very effectively, we’ll go up Heng-Shan with you to keep away from you not paying your debt.”

Linghu Chong laughingly stated, “Congratulations on changing into wealthy and promoting me at such a fantastic worth.”

The Peach Valley Six Fairies’ orange-like faces had been stuffed with happiness. They cupped their palms and stated, “Thanks, thanks! It is our luck, our luck!”

However Yihe and the opposite six ladies turned grieved and so they knelt in the direction of Linghu Chong. Linghu Chong was shocked. “Why is everybody giving me such a giant propriety?” and he swiftly returned their propriety.

“We pay our respect to Headmaster,” Yihe stated.

“So that you already knew? Please rapidly stand up.”

“Yeah, it isn’t handy speaking whereas kneeling on the bottom,” Peachtree Root Fairy stated.

Linghu Chong stood up and stated, “Six Peach brothers, Heng-Shan College and I’ve a number of vital issues we’ve to debate. Please drink wine on the facet and do not hassle us, in any other case you may not be getting your one thousand silver taels.” Initially, the Peach Valley Six Fairies needed to harass them. However listening to that final sentence, they rapidly shut up and walked to the desk in addition to the window. They then ordered some wine and dishes.

Yihe and the opposite disciples stood up. As they considered Dingxian and Dingyi Shi Tai dying miserably, they could not assist crying sorrowfully.

Peachtree Flower Fairy interrupted, “Yi, unusual, unusual, how come you are crying abruptly? In case you are crying after seeing Linghu Chong, then it is higher to not have seen him then.”

Linghu Chong glared angrily in the direction of him. Frightened, Peachtree Flower Fairy rapidly put his hand on his mouth.

Yihe was nonetheless crying as she stated, “That day large brother Linghu… no, Headmaster, you went ashore to drink wine however did not come again to the boat. In a while, Hengshan College’s martial uncle Mo Da got here and informed us that you’ve got gone to Shaolin temple to fulfill martial uncle Abbess and Grasp. We consulted with one another and determined that it is higher for us to go to Shaolin temple to fulfill with all of you. However we did not count on to fulfill many Jianghu heroes on the way in which, and we heard them speaking passionately about the way you led a bunch of heroes to assault Shaolin temple, and the way the 1000’s of monks from Shaolin temple ran away. There was an individual with a giant head with quick and plump physique. He stated his surname was Previous. He stated… he stated that martial uncle Abbess and Grasp had been killed within the Shaolin temple. Earlier than martial uncle Abbess handed away, she needed you… needed you to take over the Headmaster place of Heng-Shan and that you’ve got agreed to it. These phrases had been already heard by lots of people… ” She stated until right here and began to sob uncontrollably. The remaining six disciples additionally began to weep.

Linghu Chong sighed. “It is true that Dingxian Shi Tai actually put this heavy duty on my shoulder. However I am only a younger man and my status is actually poor, and everybody already is aware of that I am a idler of poor character. How can I be the Headmaster of the Heng-Shan College? But it surely was simply that the state of affairs at the moment pressured me to agree. If I did not agree, then Dingxian Shi Tai would’ve died with an unfulfilled want. Ai, this can be a very troublesome matter.”

“We… all of us hope that you just… hope that you just come and take up the management of the Heng-Shan household,” Yihe pleaded.

Zheng E reasoned, “Martial uncle Headmaster, you have led us going out and in of risks, and you’ve got additionally rescued most of the disciples’ lives greater than as soon as. All of the disciples of the Heng-Shan College already know that you just’re an upright gentleman. Despite the fact that you are a person, our college has no regulation that does not permit a person to be the Headmaster.”

A middle-aged nun referred to as Yiwen added, “Once we heard the information of Grasp and Martial Uncle’s deaths, all of us felt very unhappy. However after we discovered that Martial Uncle Headmaster is coming to take over the management of the varsity, all of us felt actually comforted as Heng-Shan College would not be destroyed.”

Yihe stated, “My grasp and my two martial uncles had been killed by somebody. Heng-Shan College’s three elders of the ‘Ding’ era have successively died inside these a number of months but we do not know who the murderers are. Martial Uncle Headmaster, you changing into the Headmaster is one of the best factor attainable. If you happen to weren’t our headmaster, then we might by no means have the ability to avenge our three elders.”

Linghu Chong nodded his head and stated, “I take full duty for avenging the dying of the three Shi Tai.”

Qin Juan stated, “You are already been pushed out from Huashan College; so now you could be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster. West mountain or north mountain, we’re on par with each other in Wulin. If you meet Mr. Yue sooner or later, you will not must name him grasp anymore. At most, you name him Brother Yue.”

Linghu Chong solely smiled bitterly. He thought, “I haven’t got anymore face to fulfill this Brother Yue.”

Zheng E stated, “After we heard of this unhappy information, we doubled our effort to get to the Shaolin temple. On the way in which we met with Martial Uncle Mo Da once more. He informed us that you just’re not within the temple anymore however he needed us to rapidly search for you, Martial Uncle Headmaster.”

Qin Juan continued the story, “Martial Uncle Mo Da stated that the earlier we discover you the higher it might be. If we had been late for a step then you’ll have been persuaded to enter the Satan Sect. The orthodox and the demonical can’t combine like that of water and hearth. Heng-Shan College would then don’t have any extra Headmaster.”

Zheng E glared at her and stated, “Martial sister Qin talks with out pondering. How can Martial Uncle Headmaster be part of the Satan Sect?”

“Sure, however Martial Uncle Mo Da actually did say this,” Qin Juan replied.

Linghu Chong thought, “Martial Uncle Mo Da could be very involved about this matter. Despite the fact that I did not be part of the Solar Moon Sect, I very practically did. That day, if Chief Ren did not tempt me with the key of the interior artwork, and if he had really requested me sincerely and earnestly to affix the sect, it might’ve been a really troublesome choice for me. Additionally, contemplating Yingying’s and massive brother Xiang’s elements in asking me, I may need instantly pledged my oath after attending to Heng-Shan College’s large matter.” He then stated, “That is why you provided one thousand silver taels for the seize of Linghu Chong?”

Qin Juan broke from her tears and smiled. “Seize Linghu Chong? How might we dare?”

Zheng E stated, “After everybody heard Martial Uncle Mo Da’s instruction, we divided into teams of seven to search for Martial Uncle Headmaster, and to ask you to return as much as Heng-Shan to deal with the varsity’s obligations. At the moment, after we met the Peach Valley Six Fairies, they requested for one thousand silver taels. To search for Martial Uncle Headmaster, do not point out one thousand silver taels, even when it had been ten thousand silver taels, we might consider a solution to give it to them.”

Linghu Chong smiled. “There is not any profit for you after I grow to be your Headmaster. However your talent in getting alms from corrupt officers, village bosses, and grasping wealthy individuals will certainly advance by quite a bit.” The seven disciples considered that day in Fujian after they requested for alms from White Peeling Leather-based. Their unhappiness was barely relieved and so they all broke into smiles. “Alright, don’t be concerned everybody. Linghu Chong already promised Dingxian Shi Tai so I can not simply disregard what I stated. I am going to positively grow to be your Headmaster. We’ll eat until we’re full then we’ll go up Heng-Shan.” The seven disciples all rejoiced after they heard this.

Linghu Chong then drank some wine along with the Peach Valley Six Fairies. He requested the six of them what they needed to make use of one thousand silver taels for. Peachtree Root Fairy answered, “Evening Cat Ji Wushi is extraordinarily poor. If he did not have one thousand silver taels, he would not have the ability to stay from day after day, so we promised to present him our assist as greatest as we will.”

Peachtree Trunk Fairy added, “That day contained in the Shaolin temple, we brothers made a wager with Ji Wushi…”

Peachtree Flower Fairy interrupted, “After all Ji Wushi misplaced. How might this little child win from us brothers?”

However Linghu Chong thought, “You made a wager with Ji Wushi, in fact the one who misplaced is you guys.” He requested, “What did you wager on?”

Peachtree Fruit Fairy answered, “The matter we wager on issues you. We guessed that you just absolutely will not grow to be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster, no… no… we guessed that you’re going to absolutely grow to be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster.”

Peachtree Flower Fairy stated, “Evening Cat guessed that you just absolutely will not grow to be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster. We then stated, gentleman’s phrases should be believed. You already promised that outdated nun to grow to be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster. The world’s heroes have already heard what you stated, how might you deny it?”

Peachtree Department Fairy stated, “Evening Cat stated, Linghu Chong is loitering round Jianghu and shortly he’ll take Satan Sect’s Sacred Girl as his spouse. Why does he need to chit chat with some young and old nuns?”

Linghu Chong thought, “Evening Cat reveres Yingying utterly. How can or not it’s attainable that he stated ‘Satan Sect’? It should be the Peach Valley Six Fairies who inverted their story telling.” He then stated, “So you then gambled one thousand silver taels on this?”

Peachtree Root Fairy replied, “Proper, at the moment, we had been sure that we’ll win. Ji Wushi then stated that this one thousand silver taels should be earned actually and we will not steal it off individuals. We informed him in fact, would Peach Valley Six Fairies rob individuals?”

Peachtree Leaf Fairy stated, “At the moment, we met a number of of those nuns whereas they’re in search of you. They stated that they need to invite you to grow to be Heng-Shan College’s Headmaster. We agreed to assist search for you for the price of one thousand silver taels.”

Linghu Chong smiled and stated, “You felt pitiful once you thought that Evening Cat would lose one thousand silver taels to you. That is why you needed to earn one thousand silver taels to present to him, in order that he might give this to you when he loses?”

Peach Valley Six Fairies answered on the identical time, “That is proper, that is proper. Your prediction is actually correct.”

Peachtree Leaf Fairy added, “In comparison with our prediction talent, your prediction talent would not lack by an excessive amount of.”

Afterwards, Linghu Chong and his celebration got down to Heng-Shan. On the day they lastly arrived on the foot of the mountain, the disciples from the varsity had been respectfully ready on the foot of the mountain as they’d obtained a message concerning the arrival. They rapidly paid their respects to Linghu Chong after they noticed him. Linghu Chong swiftly returned their propriety. He informed them how Dingxian and Dingyi Shi Tai handed away, and all of them felt grieved. Linghu Chong noticed Yilin amongst the remainder of the disciples. She gave the impression to be wanting feeble and far thinner for the reason that final time he noticed her. He requested, “Martial sister Yilin, you have been unwell lately?”

Each of Yilin’s eyes had been pink as she answered, “It is nothing.” After a second, she continued, “You are our headmaster now, so you’ll be able to’t name me martial sister anymore.”

On their solution to the mountain, Yihe and the remainder of the disciples all referred to as Linghu Chong as ‘Martial Uncle Headmaster’. He stored telling everybody to not name him that however none of them agreed. After listening to Yilin telling him to not name her ‘Martial Sister’, he stated in a transparent voice, “Martial sisters, Linghu Chong is taking the management of the Heng-Shan College’s household due to the previous Abbess’s order. Really, I haven’t got the advantage or potential to do that job; I actually do not deserve it.”

All of the disciples replied, “It is really the fortune of this faculty that Martial Uncle Headmaster is keen to tackle this heavy duty.”

“Then everybody should promise me one factor,” Linghu Chong answered.

Yihe and the remainder of the disciples stated, “We might by no means disobey Headmaster’s order.”

“I am solely changing into your Martial Brother Headmaster, not your Martial Uncle Headmaster,” Linghu Chong informed them.

Yihe, Yiqing, Yizhen, Yiwen, and the remainder of the older disciples consulted with one another after which reported again, “Headmaster could be very modest, we’ll obey your order.”

Linghu Chong fortunately stated, “That is excellent.”

Then all of them went up the Heng-Shan mountain collectively. The summit of Heng-Shan was very tall. Despite the fact that everybody was strolling actually rapidly, it nonetheless took them half a day to succeed in the Xianxing Peak after seeing it from afar. The principle convent of the Heng-Shan College was the Wuse convent, which was a very small convent, whereas the opposite convent had greater than thirty stone homes the place the disciples resided in. Linghu Chong noticed that the Wuse Convent solely consisted of two rooms; one on the entrance and the opposite within the again. In comparison with the grand temple of Shaolin, it was like evaluating an ant to an elephant.

When he arrived contained in the convent, he noticed a statue of the Goddess of Mercy Guanyin. The within of the convent was spotlessly clear and the whole lot was organized merely. He by no means thought that Heng-Shan College with such an earth-shattering identify in Jianghu, would have such a plain convent. After paying his respect to the Guanyin deity, Yu Sao led him to Dingxian Shi Tai’s meditation place, however he noticed the 4 partitions had been boring and there was solely an outdated putuan on the ground. Apart from that, there was nothing else. Linghu Chong liked liveliness, consuming, and consuming. How might he presumably keep in that quiet and calm room to meditate? If he took wine, canine meat or any meat generally into the room to eat and drink, then that might be too rude in the direction of everybody there. He then requested Yu Sao, “Despite the fact that I am the headmaster of Heng-Shan College, I am not a Buddhist and I am additionally not a nun. The disciples of the varsity are all ladies whereas I am a person; so dwelling contained in the convent is not applicable. Please give me and the Peach Valley Six Fairies an empty and much away home to stay in. Then that’ll be applicable.”

Yu Sao stated, “Sure. The west peak has three large homes. They’re initially visitor homes, which we provided to the dad and mom of the varsity’s disciples at any time when they arrive for a go to. In the event that they’re acceptable to Headmaster then Headmaster can keep there quickly whereas we construct a brand new residence for Headmaster.”

Linghu Chong fortunately replied, “It is already good that there is a home; why do that you must construct a brand new home?”, whereas he thought in his coronary heart, “May or not it’s that I will be Heng-Shan College’s headmaster for the remainder of my life? As soon as I’ve discovered an acceptable individual from the varsity to whom all of the disciples will undergo, then I am going to go on this headmaster place to her. Then I am going to pat my buttocks and journey round Jianghu leisurely and fortunately.”

When he arrived on the home on the west peak, he noticed the mattress, mattress, chair, and the remainder of the issues resembled that of a wealthy farmer’s home. Despite the fact that they had been nonetheless easy and humble, they did not seem as boring as within the convent. Yu Sao stated, “Headmaster, please sit. I am going to go and get you some wine.”

Linghu Chong was fortunately shocked, “There’s wine on this mountain?”

Yu Sao smiled and stated, “Not solely do we’ve wine, we’ve good wine right here. When little martial sister Yilin heard that Headmaster is developing Heng-Shan, she informed me that if we do not have good wine, then she’s afraid that you just will not be headmaster for lengthy. On that very same evening, we despatched individuals to go down the mountain to purchase many jars of excellent wine.”

Linghu Chong felt embarrassed. He smiled and stated, “Everybody labored so onerous and spent a lot cash due to me. I do not suppose that is justified.”

Yiqing smiled. “That day we acquired a number of silver from White Peeling Leather-based. Despite the fact that we give half of it to the poor, we nonetheless have loads remaining. Additionally, we already bought these authorities horses for some cash. So Martial Brother Headmaster can drink for ten years or twenty years, we’ll manage to pay for to purchase wine.” That evening, Linghu Chong and Peach Valley Six Fairies drank to their hearts’ content material.

The following morning, he consulted with Yu Sao, Yiqing, Yihe and the opposite disciples on methods to welcome the ashes of the 2 Shi Tai and methods to avenge the three Shi Tai.

Yiqing stated, “Martial Brother Headmaster has now taken the publish of headmaster. So we should announce this to all of the orthodox individuals of Wulin, and we should additionally dispatch individuals to inform the 5 Mountains Sword Colleges’ Chief, Martial Uncle Zuo.”

Yihe indignantly stated, “Pei, my grasp was killed by these traitors from Songshan College. The 2 martial uncles had been almost definitely killed by them as effectively. What can we inform them for?”

Yiqing replied, “We mustn’t lack any propriety. Wait till we’ve investigated this clearly. If the three honourables had been actually killed by Songshan College, then at the moment, Martial Brother Headmaster will lead us to confront them about their sin.”

Linghu Chong nodded his head. “What martial sister Yiqing stated is true. However relating to the place of Headmaster, let me simply do the job; there is no want for any celebration.” He remembered the time when Grasp turned the chief of Huashan. He was nonetheless very younger at the moment, and he recalled that there have been so many formal celebrations. There have been additionally quite a few individuals from Wulin of the orthodox path who got here up the mountain to congratulate his grasp and attend the ceremonies. He additionally remembered how the town of Hengshan was utterly stuffed by many heroes for Hengshan College’s Liu Zhengfeng’s ‘Gold Basin Hand Washing’ ceremony.

Heng-Shan, Huashan, and Hengshan faculties all had the identical status. If there weren’t many individuals turning up on the ceremony to congratulate him for taking on the Headmaster place, then it might be very humiliating. Even when there have been many individuals attending, it’s almost definitely for them to snicker at him for taking on the management of a bunch of nuns. Yiqing understood his coronary heart so she stated, “Since Martial Brother Headmaster would not need to alarm the chums in Wulin, we would not invite visitors to return up the mountain to attend the ceremony. However we should determine on a day for Headmaster to formally take up the place in order that we will formally inform everybody.”

Linghu Chong felt that if he took up the headmaster place of the Heng-Shan College too carelessly, it might harm Heng-Shan College’s status and status since Heng-Shan is among the 5 mountains sword faculties. So he nodded his head agreeing to Yiqing.

Yiqing took up a calendar and perused it for a while. She then stated, “Sixteenth of the second month, eight of the third month, twenty seventh of the third month, these three days are fortunate days. Martial Brother Headmaster, take a look, which day is appropriate?” Linghu Chong had by no means believed in any fortunate or unfortunate days. All he considered in his coronary heart was that the sooner the ceremony was, then the much less individuals there can be to participate within the ceremony, and he would have the ability to keep away from a lot embarrassment. So he stated, “Is there any good days for this month?”

Yiqing answered, “There are literally many good days throughout this month. However they’re all for happening a journey, breaking the bottom*, wedding ceremony, opening a enterprise, and others like that. It is not till the second month that there are good days for ‘receiving seal and taking on workplace’.”

Linghu Chong smiled. “I am not taking on a authorities place so it is not likely receiving a seal.”

Yihe laughed. “Weren’t you a basic earlier than? Changing into a headmaster can also be receiving a seal.”

Linghu Chong did not need to brush away their concepts so he stated, “Because it’s like that, then make it the sixteenth of the second month.”

Afterwards, they instantly despatched disciples individually: to Shaolin temple to take again the 2 Shi Tai’s ashes, and to different faculties to present notifications. He informed all of the disciples who had been taking place the mountain to not publicly announce this matter. He additionally stated, “You could report back to the headmaster of every faculty that we have not avenged Dingxian Shi Tai’s dying but and that the disciples of Heng-Shan College are nonetheless in mourning, so there will not be any grand ceremony for the taking on of the headmaster’s workplace. Please ask them to not ship anybody to attend the ceremony.”

After he talked to the departing disciples, Linghu Chong thought, “Since I am now the headmaster of Heng-Shan, I have to rigorously analysis the sword artwork of the Heng-Shan College.” He gathered the remaining disciples and examined every of their sword artwork from the essential introductory degree martial artwork to the very best Heng-Shan sword artwork types, which was displayed by Yihe and Yiqing, two of the oldest disciples. Linghu Chong noticed that the Heng-Shan College’s sword artwork was defensively very tight, and the killing strikes had been ceaselessly aimed toward spots the place different individuals least anticipated. Nevertheless, it didn’t have sufficient swiftness or ferociousness. These martial arts had been actually appropriate for ladies. All of the earlier grasp generations of Heng-Shan College had all been ladies, so their martial arts weren’t as highly effective or fierce like those that males used. However Heng-Shan College’s sword artwork might be stated to be one of many sword arts with the least quantity of flaws in them. If talking about their defence, they had been simply barely beneath Wudang College’s ‘Taiji Sword Artwork’. However speaking about how they may abruptly assault, these sword arts had been above ‘Taiji Sword Artwork’. Heng-Shan College was one of the vital excellent faculties in Wulin, so it had its personal distinctive abilities.

In his thoughts, he rigorously went over the drawings engraved on the cave wall on Huashan. There have been some Heng-Shan College’s sword arts drawn there, which had great variations, and had been far above the sword artwork that Yihe and Yiqing had been utilizing. Despite the fact that this set of sword artwork had been defeated by different individuals, if sooner or later Heng-Shan College needed to be superb in Wulin, then its fundamental abilities wanted to be improved. He additionally considered the time he noticed Dingjing Shi Tai preventing with different individuals. Her inside power was considerable and her strikes had been fierce. She was actually very far above Yihe and the opposite disciples. He had additionally heard that Dingxian Shi Tai’s martial artwork was even greater. It appeared that the three senior Shi Tai had not imparted a substantial amount of their martial artwork to their disciples but. When the three Shi Tai had successively handed away within the final a number of months, a lot of Heng-Shan College’s great martial artwork had presumably been misplaced eternally.

Yihe noticed him with none expressions on his face and observed that he did not touch upon any of the disciples’ sword arts. So she stated, “Martial brother Headmaster, you should be wanting down on our sword artwork, please give us some recommendation.”

Taking the sword from Yihe’s hand, Linghu Chong replied, “There’s this set of Heng-Shan College’s sword artwork; I do not know if the three Shi Tai had imparted it to you or not?” and began to point out the Heng-Shan College’s sword artwork engraved on the cave wall. He was doing the strikes actually slowly to let the disciples see it clearly. After a number of strikes, all of the disciples began cheering. They noticed that every transfer of his nonetheless contained the essential essence of Heng-Shan’s sword artwork, however the variations had been great. They did not know simply how a lot greater in degree this set was when in comparison with every of the units they’d learnt prior to now. Everybody was taking a look at every transfer enthusiastically and so they felt happy seeing it. The engraving of this set of sword strikes on the cave wall was useless, so when Linghu Chong was utilizing it, he linked them up one after the other. In between every transfer, it was unavoidable that he had so as to add a few of his thought into it. When he lastly completed exhibiting them this set of sword artwork, all of the disciples cheered and so they all bowed saluting him.

Yihe stated, “Martial brother Headmaster, that is clearly our Heng-Shan College’s sword artwork, however we have by no means seen it earlier than. I am afraid even my grasp and the 2 martial uncles did not learn about this sword artwork. The place did you study it?”

Linghu Chong answered, “I noticed it on a mountain cave wall. If you happen to had been keen to study it, then how about if I imparted this sword artwork to you?” All of the disciples had been comfortable to listen to this and so they thanked him. That day Linghu Chong imparted three strikes to them. He defined the intricacies of these three strikes clearly and personally performed the drills.

Despite the fact that it was solely three strikes from the sword artwork, these three strikes had been extraordinarily profound and deep. Even the brightest and essentially the most expert disciples resembling Yihe and Yiqing took seven to eight days to study it. When it got here to Zheng E, Yilin, Qin Juan, and the others, it was much more troublesome for them to understand it. After 9 days, Linghu Chong imparted two extra strikes to them. There weren’t many strikes on this set of sword arts engraved on the cave wall. However they’d really spent multiple month earlier than they accomplished rudimentary coaching. As to the mastery of this sword artwork, it relied on every individual’s potential and comprehension.

After greater than a month, the disciples who had been despatched as emissaries began to return from their journey one after the other, and for essentially the most half, they did not look happy in any respect. They had been afraid to speak after they reported to Linghu Chong. He knew for positive with out asking that they’d been ridiculed as a bunch of nuns wanting a person to be their headmaster. All he might do was console them with phrases. Then he requested them to individually study from their martial sisters the sword artwork he had imparted to them. If there have been something they weren’t clear about, then he would personally advise them.

Two skilled disciples, Yu Sao and Yiwen had been despatched to Huashan to ship the epistle. The space between Heng-Shan and Huashan wasn’t that far, so they need to have returned a lot earlier. Even when all of the disciples who went to the south had returned, Yu Sao and Yiwen nonetheless hadn’t come again but. As they neared the sixteenth of the second month, the day for taking workplace, and nonetheless hadn’t seen any signal of Yu Sao and Yiwen, they despatched two extra disciples, Yiguang and Yishi, to go to their help.

The disciples didn’t anticipate any sect or faculty sending anybody to attend the ceremony, so that they did not put together any lodging or meals for visitors. Nevertheless, everybody had earlier weeded the bottom, swept all of the rooms clear, and sewn new robes and sneakers to put on. Zheng E and a few disciples had sewn a black robe for Linghu Chong to put on for this present day. Heng-Shan was the north mountain among the many 5 mountains and the color of their uniform was black.

On the morning of the sixteenth of the second month, when Linghu Chong acquired out after getting away from bed, he noticed lamps and festoons hanging from the highest of every home, exhibiting the day’s comfortable event. Seeing the care and dedication that went into making every of the ornament and securely arranging them, Linghu Chong once more felt ashamed, however he additionally felt appreciation in the direction of them. He thought, “The 2 Shi Tai died tragically due to me, however they did not blame me for it. As an alternative, they gave a lot regards to me. If Linghu Chong could not avenge the three Shi Tai then I will be a ineffective individual.”

Out of the blue, he heard somebody shouting from behind the nook of the mountain, “A’lin, A’lin, your dad has come to have a look at you. Are you effectively? A’lin, your dad’s right here.” His voice was booming, shaking the valley, and earlier than the echo had completed, he once more shouted, “A’lin… A’lin… your dad…” Yilin had already heard his voice so she rapidly acquired out of the convent and referred to as out, “Dad, dad!” Then from across the nook of the mountain, a tall and robust monk emerged. It was actually Yilin’s father, Monk No Commandment, and there was additionally one other monk behind him. The 2 of them had been strolling actually quick and in a short while had reached the convent. Monk No Commandment loudly exclaimed, “Grasp Linghu, you did not die out of your heavy accidents, and now you are going to grow to be my daughter’s headmaster. That is excellent!”

Linghu Chong smiled. “That is due to Nice Grasp.”

Yilin walked as much as her father and lovingly pulled on his arm. She smiled, “Dad, you realize at present is the day that large brother Linghu formally takes up workplace because the headmaster of Heng-Shan College. Did you come right here to congratulate him?”

No Commandment laughed. “There is not any want for congratulation. I am right here to affix the Heng-Shan College. Everyone seems to be from the identical faculty, what’s there to congratulate?”

Linghu Chong was startled and he rapidly requested, “Nice Grasp needs to affix Heng-Shan College?”

No Commandment answered, “Yeah. My daughter is in Heng-Shan College. I am her outdated man, so naturally I am additionally within the Heng-Shan College. His granny, I heard everybody ridiculing you. They’re saying that you are a man however you need to grow to be the headmaster of a bunch of nuns and younger women. His granny, they did not know that you just’re stuffed with ardour and righteousness. The thoughts…” His eyebrows was a smile and it appeared that he was actually comfortable. He checked out his daughter and stated, “Previous man punched that man’s mouth and broke all his tooth. I shouted to him, “You little child is aware of fart! How can everybody in Heng-Shan College be all nuns and younger women? Previous man is from Heng-Shan College, despite the fact that outdated man has a shiny head, do you suppose I am a nun? I will pull my pants down to present you a glance!” So I pulled my pants down however this child fell down after which ran away. Haha, haha!” Linghu Chong and Yilin each laughed freely after they heard this.

Yilin smiled. “Dad, you are so crude in doing issues. You are additionally not afraid of individuals laughing at you!”

No Commandment replied, “If I did not let him look clearly, then this child nonetheless would not know whether or not I am a nun or a monk. Brother Linghu, I’ve joined the Heng-Shan College. I’ve additionally introduced this grand disciple alongside. Can’t Have No Commandment, rapidly greet Headmaster Linghu.”

Whereas Monk No Commandment was talking, the monk following him had his again turned in the direction of them for the entire time, not keen to have a look at Linghu Chong or Yilin. As he circled, his face was stuffed with embarrassment. He checked out Linghu Chong and smiled barely. Linghu Chong felt that this monk seemed acquainted however he could not determine who he was. Then, he was startled as he unexpectedly recognised the Ten Thousand Miles Loner Tian Boguang. He was completely amazed and blurted out, “It is… it is Brother Tian?”

That monk was actually Tian Boguang. He smiled bitterly then bowed in the direction of Yilin. “Greet… greeting Grasp.”

Yilin was additionally very shocked. “How… how did you grow to be a Buddhist? Is it a disguise?”

Nice Grasp No Commandment was feeling pleased with himself and he laughingly answered, “That is the actual factor and he isn’t deceiving anybody right here. He had actually grow to be a monk. Can’t Have No Commandment, inform your grasp what your Buddhist identify is.”

Tian Boguang smiled bitterly and stated, “Grasp, grand Martial Grasp gave me a Buddhist identify referred to as ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’.”

Yilin requested unusually, “What ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’? How can there be such an extended identify?”

Her father replied, “What are you aware? In Buddhist scripture, what does it matter how lengthy the Buddha’s identify is! ‘Buddha of Compassion and Sorrow Helps the Distressed and Watches the World’s Voice’, is not that identify lengthy? ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’ solely has 4 phrases in his identify, how can that be lengthy?”

Yilin nodded. “In order that’s how it’s. How did he grow to be a Buddhist? Dad, was it you who took him as your disciple?”

No Commandment answered, “No. He is your disciple; I am his grand martial grandpa. However you are solely a bit of nun and since he had already paid his respect to take you as his grasp, if he did not grow to be a monk, then he would’ve ruined the great identify of Heng-Shan College. That is why I suggested him to grow to be a monk.”

Yilin laughingly stated, “What do you imply suggested him? Dad, you will need to’ve pressured him to grow to be a Buddhist, did not you?”

“He voluntarily did it; you’ll be able to’t power somebody to grow to be a Buddhist. No matter goodness this individual has, there’s an equal quantity of badness in him. That is why I gave him the Buddhist identify of ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’.”

Yilin’s face turned barely pink as she understood the that means behind her father’s phrases. This Tian Boguang was a really lecherous individual and he was in some way captured by her father prior to now. At the moment, his life was spared however a number of unusual punishments had been heaped on him. This time, it appeared that he had been pressured to grow to be a monk.

Then No Commandment continued, “My Buddhist identify is No Commandment, so I do not adhere to any guidelines or commandments. However this Tian Boguang has dedicated a number of dangerous issues in Jianghu. If he did not abstain from committing extra of those piles of misdemeanours, how can he be underneath your faculty and grow to be your disciple? Grasp Linghu would not have favored this additionally. Sooner or later, he’ll obtain my alms bowl; that is why his identify additionally has the phrases ‘No Commandment’.”

They abruptly heard an individual stated, “Monk No Commandment and Monk Can’t Have No Commandment are each becoming a member of the Heng-Shan College. The Peach Valley Six Fairies are additionally going to affix Heng-Shan College.”

The Peach Valley Six Fairies had come and the one who spoke simply then was Peachtree Trunk Fairy.

Peachtree Root Fairy stated, “We had been the primary individuals to see Linghu Chong, so the six of us are large martial brothers, whereas Monk No Commandment is little martial brother.”

Linghu Chong thought, “Since there are Nice Grasp No Commandment and Tian Boguang in Heng-Shan College already, there is no hurt in accepting the Peach Valley Six Fairies as effectively. This fashion, it will take away these talks in Jianghu about Linghu Chong changing into the headmaster of a bunch of nuns and younger women.” He then stated, “Peachtree Six brothers are keen to enter the Heng-Shan College, then that is actually good then. But it surely’s very troublesome to rearrange the seniority order one after the other so it is higher if we simply depart it alone!”

Peachtree Leaf Fairy stated, “No Commandment’s disciple is known as Can’t Have No Commandment. When sooner or later, Can’t Have No Commandment accepts a disciple, what is going to his Buddhist identify be?”

Peachtree Fruit Fairy answered, “Can’t Have No Commandment’s disciple’s Buddhist identify should even have the phrases ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’. He could be referred to as, ‘With out Doubt Can’t Have No Commandment’.”

Peachtree Department Fairy stated, “Then the disciple of ‘With out Doubt Can’t Have No Commandment’; what would his Buddhist identify be?”

Linghu Chong noticed Tian Boguang’s plight so he took his arm and led him away. “I’ve a number of phrases to ask you.”

“Alright,” Tian Boguang answered.

The 2 of them quickened their steps and moved tens of toes away. However behind them, they nonetheless heard Peachtree Trunk Fairy saying, “His Buddhist identify could be ‘With Cause and With out Doubt Can’t Have No Commandment’.”

Peachtree Flower Fairy added, “Then how about disciple of ‘With Cause and With out Doubt Can’t Have No Commandment’? What would his Buddhist identify be?”

Tian Boguang smiled bitterly and stated, “Headmaster Linghu, that day I used to be pressured by Grand Martial Grasp to go to Huashan to ask you to return and see the little Shi Tai. However there is a lengthy story behind that.”

Linghu Chong stated, “I do know that he pressured you to take a poison, and he additionally tricked you by saying that he’d already sealed your dying acupoint.”

“I’ve already informed you about that earlier than. That day within the courtyard of the Jade Home, I fought with that shorty Yu. After that, I considered it and determined that there have been too many heroes from the orthodox path for me to remain there for lengthy. So I went north in the direction of Hunan. I am ashamed to speak about these days. My shortcoming turned seen not lengthy after. In Kaifeng prefecture, I sneaked into the room of a wealthy household’s younger woman in the midst of the evening. I lifted the mosquito web and prolonged my palms to cop a really feel, however I unexpectedly felt a bald head as an alternative.”

Linghu Chong laughed and stated, “So to your shock, she’s a nun.”

Tian Boguang smiled bitterly. “No, it was a monk.”

Linghu Chong laughed loudly. “The younger woman was contained in the quilt sleeping with a monk. By no means thought that this younger woman would’ve stolen a person, and the person she’d stolen can be a monk.”

Tian Boguang shook his head and stated, “That is not it! That monk was Grand Martial Grasp. Initially, Grand Martial Grasp was in search of me. When he lastly tracked my path down, he discovered me at Kaifeng prefecture. That afternoon I used to be spying round that home and Grand Martial Grasp noticed me. He guessed that I used to be as much as no good, so he talked to that household and informed that younger woman to get out of hassle. Then he slept on that mattress ready for me.”

Linghu Chong laughed. “Brother Tian will need to have actually suffered this time.”

Tian Boguang smiled bitterly. “Does that want saying? Once I rubbed Grand Martial Grasp’s head, I already knew that one thing’s not proper. Then I felt my abdomen felt numb as a result of he hit my acupoint there. Grand Martial Grasp jumped out of the mattress and lighted a lamp. Then he requested me whether or not I need to die or stay. I do know that for my entire life I have been doing evil issues, so there can be in the future after I’d have a reckoning. So I rapidly stated, ‘I need to die!’. Grand Martial Grasp thought that this was actually unusual so he requested me: ‘Why do you need to die?’ I stated: ‘I wasn’t being cautious and was captured by you. How can I nonetheless hope to stay?’ Grand Martial Grasp gave me a clean expression then indignantly stated, ‘You stated you had been captured by me solely since you weren’t cautious. So you’re implying that should you had been a bit extra cautious, then I would not have the ability to seize you. Alright!’ As he stated ‘alright’, he launched my acupoint. Then I sat down and requested him: ‘What’s your order?’ He stated: ‘You will have a knife in your belt, how come you are not utilizing it to cut me? You will have two legs beneath your physique, how come you are not leaping out of the window to flee?’ I stated: ‘I am a gentleman, how can I act like a shameless no one?’ He simply laughed loudly and stated: ‘You are not a shameless no one? You already paid respect to my daughter to take her as your grasp and but how come you are disclaiming it?’ I believed this was actually unusual so I requested: ‘Your daughter?’ He answered: ‘On the highest flooring of that wine store, you made a wager with that teen from Huashan College. Saying that whoever misplaced would take my daughter as grasp. May or not it’s that it is all faux? I went up Heng-Shan to search for my daughter, and she or he informed me the whole lot from the start to the tip.’ I stated: ‘In order that’s how it’s. That little nun is your daughter, that is actually bizarre.’ He requested: ‘What’s bizarre about that?'”

Linghu Chong laughed. “This matter actually is sort of unusual. Different individuals grow to be a monk after they’ve gotten a daughter, however Nice Grasp No Commandment turned a monk first earlier than getting a daughter. His Buddhist identify is known as No Commandment. It signifies that he will not adjust to any guidelines or commandments.”

Tian Boguang stated, “That is proper. At the moment, I stated: ‘That wager was solely a trick, how might you’re taking it as actual? You are not unsuitable that I misplaced the combat in that wager, so I will not hassle your daughter anymore.’ Grand Martial Grasp then stated: ‘That will not do. You already stated that you’ll take her as grasp, so you will need to take her as your grasp. You can not not take my daughter as a grasp. I can not let anybody bully my very own daughter. I spent a number of effort to search out you. You are very slippery and if it weren’t for you committing these rapes, then it might’ve been actually troublesome to seize you.’

I noticed him getting muddled and never talking clearly, so I rapidly used my ‘Three Cloud Steps’ and jumped out of the window. I believed that when I’ve used my lightness martial artwork, Grand Martial Grasp would positively not have the ability to sustain with me. However I used to be shocked after I heard footsteps behind me as a result of Grand Martial Grasp had chased me down. I referred to as out: ‘Large monk, you did not kill me simply then, so I will not kill you both. If you happen to stored on chasing then I will not be well mannered anymore.’ Grand Martial Grasp laughed loudly and stated: ‘How do you grow to be rude?’ I pulled my knife out, circled, and chopped down on him. However Grand Martial Grasp’s martial artwork was actually excessive. He solely used his palms to commerce strikes with me. I did not know methods to use my quick knife to cut him, and after greater than forty strikes, he grabbed the again of my neck and snatched my knife away.

Then he requested me: ‘Quit but?’ I stated: ‘I surrender, you’ll be able to kill me now!’ He stated: ‘What’s using killing you? Wouldn’t it make my daughter alive once more?’ I used to be startled so I requested: ‘Little Shi Tai is useless?’ He stated: ‘She hasn’t died but, however she’s nearly as good as useless. I noticed her at Heng-Shan and she or he was so skinny that I may even see her bones. I cried after I noticed her, after which I slowly requested her what occurred. It was you who harmed her.’ I stated: ‘If you happen to needed to kill me then kill me. Tian Boguang is an trustworthy individual and would by no means inform lies. I used to be impolite to your daughter at first, however she was saved by Huashan College’s Linghu Chong. I did not violate her; she’s nonetheless a younger woman as pure as jade.’ Grand Martial Grasp stated: ‘Your granny, what’s using being as pure as jade? My daughter is lovesick; if Linghu Chong would not take her as his spouse, she would not proceed on dwelling. However after I talked about this to her, my daughter scolded me. She stated one thing like Buddhists can’t have worldly needs; in any other case Buddha reproaches them and once you die you enter the eighteenth degree of Hell.’ Out of the blue he clutched my neck and scolded me, ‘Smelly child, that is all of your doing. If you happen to weren’t being impolite to my daughter that day then Linghu Chong would not have to return and save her. Then my daughter would not have grow to be that skinny.’ I stated: ‘That is not for sure. Little Shi Tai’s magnificence is sort of a goddess, even when I weren’t being impolite to her that day, Linghu Chong would definitely have give you one more reason to strategy her’.”

Linghu Chong scowled and stated, “Brother Tian, what you stated was an excessive amount of.”

Tian Boguang laughed and stated, “I am sorry that I offended you. At the moment, the state of affairs was determined. If I did not say that, Grand Martial Grasp would by no means have launched me. Certain sufficient, when he heard this, he turned from indignant to comfortable and stated: ‘Smelly child, suppose for your self what number of dangerous issues you may have finished in your lifetime? If it weren’t for the discourteous means you handled my daughter, I might’ve flattened your head a very long time in the past.'”

Linghu Chong felt this was very odd, so he requested, “He is comfortable that you just’re being impolite to her daughter?”

Tian Boguang answered, “He wasn’t being comfortable, he was praising my foresight.”

Linghu Chong could not assist smiling. Tian Boguang went on, “Grand Martial Grasp lifted me in mid air together with his left hand whereas his proper hand gave me seventeen to eighteen whacks on the ear and I fainted. Then he soaked me in a small brook. Once I awoke, he stated: ‘I am supplying you with one month to go and invite Linghu Chong to go up Heng-Shan to see my daughter. Even when he could not take her as his spouse for now, they’ll nonetheless speak and that’ll be adequate. My daughter’s life can be protected then. Your grasp has an issue however how come you did not come and assist as her disciple?’ He then poked a few of my acupoints and informed me that they are the dying acupoints. Then he pressured me to take some poison saying that if I managed to ask you to return and see the little Shi Tai inside the one month interval, he would give me the medication. In any other case, the poison would come out and no drugs would have the ability to save me.”

Linghu Chong had eventually understood. That day when Tian Boguang got here as much as Huashan to ask him to return down the mountain, he stored the whole lot a secret and did not need to say something clearly. Linghu Chong did not count on that he would really inform him the whole lot presently. Tian Boguang continued, “I went up Huashan to ask you, however I used to be defeated and I knew that it might be onerous to maintain my life additional. To my shock, Grand Martial Grasp was feeling uneasy so he personally took the little Shi Tai to return as much as Huashan to search for you. Then he gave me the antidote, and afterwards I additionally listened to your recommendation to not rape and do these lecherous issues anymore. However Tian Boguang’s nature is lascivious and there are many ladies round. So at any time when I’ve some cash, I went to search for some prostitutes which isn’t a troublesome factor to do. Half a month in the past, Grand Martial Grasp discovered me once more. He stated that you just had been going to grow to be Heng-Shan College’s headmaster, however different individuals are ridiculing you behind your again and your status in Jianghu is being ruined. He loves the whole lot, loves his daughter and son-in-law…”

Linghu Chong scowled and interrupted, “Brother Tian, you will need to by no means converse of this nonsense ever once more.”

Tian Boguang replied, “Sure, sure. I used to be simply repeating what Grand Martial Grasp stated. He stated that he needed to affix Heng-Shan College and informed me to comply with his plan. Step one was to just accept me as a disciple on behalf of his daughter. I did not consent to this so he beat me up. I am not his match and I additionally could not run away so I used to be pressured to pay my respect to Grasp.” He stated until right here when he frowned and his expression turned darkish.

Linghu Chong stated, “You solely need to pay your respect to your grasp. It doesn’t suggest that you need to grow to be a monk as effectively. Would not Shaolin College have a number of secular disciples?”

Tian Boguang shook his head and answered, “Grand Martial Grasp had one other thought. He stated: ‘You are such a lecherous individual. As soon as you have entered Heng-Shan College, your martial uncles will all be lovely nuns, in order that’s going to be very inappropriate. One of the best plan can be to chop out the supply of hassle first.’ He then knocked me down, pulled my pants down, grabbed his knife and gave me a chop. He minimize half of my factor.”

Linghu Chong uttered an ‘ah’ as he was startled by this, and shook his head. Despite the fact that he felt that this was very merciless, he additionally thought that Tian Boguang had harmed too many ladies of excellent households, so it was a deserved retribution. Tian Boguang was additionally shaking his head earlier than he continued, “I fainted instantly. Once I awoke, Grand Martial Grasp had utilized some drugs on me and had additionally wrapped up my damage. He informed me to relaxation for a number of days to get better from my damage. Then he pressured me to shave my head and grow to be a monk. He gave me a Buddhist identify referred to as ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’. He stated: ‘Since I already chopped your factor, you’ll be able to’t rape anymore. So, in fact there is no want so that you can grow to be a monk. However I made you grow to be a monk and gave you the Buddhist identify ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’ so that everybody will know. That means, Heng-Shan College’s status may even be preserved. Ordinarily, it is inappropriate for individuals who have grow to be a monk to combine up with nuns. However since your identify is ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’, then it would not matter.'”

Linghu Chong smiled and stated, “Your Grand Martial Grasp could be very considerate.”

Tian Boguang replied, “Grand Martial Grasp needed me to let you know about all these. He additionally needs me to ask you to not blame my grasp.”

Confused, Linghu Chong requested, “Why would I need to blame your grasp? She would not know something about this matter.”

Tian Boguang answered, “Grand Martial Grasp stated: Each time he noticed my grasp, he observed how she turned a bit of bit thinner and her complexion a bit of worse. When he requested her about it, she at all times sheds a tear and by no means says something. Grand Martial Grasp stated: It should be you who’s bullying her.”

Linghu Chong was alarmed. “I did not! I by no means speak to your grasp in an indignant method. Additionally, she’s at all times so good, why would I scold her?”

Tian Boguang stated, “You by no means scolded her, that is why she cried.”

“I do not perceive.”

“Grand Martial Grasp beat me up after I requested about this too.”

Linghu Chong scratched his head pondering that Nice Grasp No Commandment’s entangled means of talking was identical to that of the Peach Valley Six Fairies.

Tian Boguang stated, “Grand Martial Grasp stated: after he acquired married to Grand Martial Mom, they quarrelled on a regular basis, and the fiercer the scolding was, the extra love there was. You are not scolding my grasp so it signifies that you are not taking my grasp to be your spouse.”

“This… your grasp is a Buddhist nun, so I’ve by no means considered this matter.”

“I additionally stated that. Grand Martial Grasp acquired indignant and beat me up for a time. He stated: my Grand Martial Mom was initially a nun and when he needed to marry her, he turned a monk. If Buddhist nuns or monks could not get married, how can there be my grasp on this world? If my grasp is not on this world, how can there be me?”

Linghu Chong could not assist pondering that this was humorous. He thought Tian Boguang was a lot older in comparison with Little Martial Sister Yilin; how might he point out these two issues collectively? Tian Boguang went on, “Grand Martial Grasp additionally stated: should you did not consider marrying my grasp, then what are you doing changing into Heng-Shan College’s headmaster? He stated: there are a number of nuns in Heng-Shan College however not one could be in comparison with my grasp’s magnificence. If you happen to did not do it for my grasp, then for which nun are you doing it for?”

Linghu Chong was secretly feeling depressing and could not take this anymore, he thought, “Nice Grasp No Commandment turned a monk in order that he might marry a nun. He now thinks that everybody on the earth thinks the identical means as him. If these phrases acquired out, how might it not trigger a number of drawback?”

Tian Boguang smiled bitterly. “Grand Martial Grasp requested me whether or not my grasp is essentially the most lovely girl in the entire world. I answered: ‘She’s not essentially the most lovely, however she’s very lovely.’ He acquired indignant and punched me inflicting two of my tooth to fall off. Then he stated: ‘How come she’s not essentially the most lovely? If she weren’t lovely, then why did you may have impolite intentions in the direction of her on that day? And why did that little child Linghu Chong risked his life to avoid wasting her?’ I rapidly stated: ‘Most lovely, most lovely. How might Grand Martial Grasp’s daughter not be essentially the most lovely girl on the earth?’ When he heard these phrases, he turned comfortable and praised my good imaginative and prescient.”

Linghu Chong smiled. “Little martial sister Yilin is in fact lovely, it is no surprise that nice Grasp No Commandment is pleased with her.”

Tian Boguang fortunately stated, “You agree that my grasp is gorgeous; that is excellent then.”

Linghu Chong oddly requested, “Why is that good?”

“Grand Martial Grasp gave me a process, he needs me to consider a solution to name you… name you…”

“Name me what?” Linghu Chong requested.

Tian Boguang smiled. “Name you my master-husband.”

Linghu Chong was stupefied. “Brother Tian, Nice Grasp No Commandment loves his daughter quite a bit. However it’s best to already know that this matter is not possible to do.”

“That is true. I stated that is actually onerous to do, I stated that you just as soon as led a big group of individuals to assault Shaolin temple due to Divine Sect’s younger woman Ren. I stated: ‘Despite the fact that younger woman Ren’s magnificence is not above my grasp, Grasp Linghu was already predestined to be along with her. He is already infatuated along with her and different individuals would not have the ability to intrude.’ Grasp Linghu, in entrance of Grand Martial Grasp, I had no alternative however to say this with the intention to shield my remaining tooth so I’ve one thing to eat with, please do not blame me.”

Linghu Chong smiled and stated, “After all I perceive.”

“Grand Martial Grasp then stated: He already is aware of about this and that it is very straightforward to resolve this drawback as a result of all that’s required is to consider a solution to kill younger woman Ren with out you realizing. I rapidly stated not to do this as a result of if younger woman Ren had been killed, then Linghu Chong would positively commit suicide. Grand Martial Grasp stated: ‘What you stated was proper. If this little child Linghu Chong died, then my daughter shall be widowed, how can that be not a foul luck? How about this? You speak to this little child Linghu Chong; inform him my daughter will marry him and make his second home. This shall be alright.’ I stated: ‘Grand Martial Grasp, how are you going to unsuitable your daughter like that?’ He sighed then stated: ‘You do not know. If my daughter could not marry Linghu Chong, she would die eventually; she positively will not have an extended life.’ As he stated this, his tears flowed down. Ai, that is their father-daughter inborn nature revealing their true emotions, it could not be faux.”

The 2 of them had been taking a look at one another, each of them feeling fairly awkward. Tian Boguang then stated, “Grasp Linghu, I’ve already stated the whole lot that Grand Martial Grasp needed me to let you know. I do know that a few of these are onerous to do, even taboo, particularly since you are the headmaster of Heng-Shan College. However I counsel you to talk extra to my grasp and let her be comfortable. You’ll be able to cope with this in a while.”

Linghu Chong nodded his head and stated, “Alright.” In the previous few days, each time he had seen Yilin, she gave the impression to be thinner and thinner. He now knew that it was as a result of she was lovesick. Yilin liked him so deeply; how come he did not know? However she was a Buddhist nun and nonetheless very younger, so he anticipated her emotions would reduce as days handed by and would lastly be gone. After assembly her once more at Xianxia mountain vary, and from Fujian to Jiangxi, he was by no means alone along with her to speak about something. Ever since he had been on Heng-Shan, he prevented doing something that may rouse suspicion. He did not care if different individuals slandered his personal identify, as his identify was already not good, however he felt he mustn’t ever spoil the clear status of the Heng-Shan College. Apart from the time he was imparting the sword artwork to the Heng-Shan’s feminine disciples, he by no means chatted with anybody. In comparison with the previous days of clowning round, he was very totally different. As he listened to Tian Boguang talking of the previous, and about Yilin’s tender emotions in the direction of him, emotions abruptly burst forth in his coronary heart.

He seemed up in the direction of the mountain peak the place the white snow was accumulating as he contemplated. Out of the blue, he heard the clamouring sounds of individuals developing the mountain path. The mountain summit had at all times been quiet and peaceable, and there was by no means individuals shouting or making noises. He was actually astonished when he heard footsteps of a number of hundred individuals developing the mountain. The primary individual referred to as out, “Congratulations, Grasp Linghu. At the moment is your comfortable day.” This individual was quick and plump; he was Previous Man. Behind him had been Ji Wushi, Zu Qianqiu, Huang Boliu, Sima Large, Blue Phoenix, You Xun, the Bear Duo of the Northern Desert, and lots of different individuals who had unexpectedly come right here.

Linghu Chong was shocked and comfortable on the identical time. He rapidly went ahead to welcome them. “I obtained Dingxian Shi Tai’s final order so I have to take the management of the Heng-Shan College, however I did not dare to alarm all the chums right here. How come you have all come right here?”

These individuals had as soon as adopted Linghu Chong in attacking Shaolin temple and had gone by means of life and dying battles with him. So they’d grow to be pals by means of trials and tribulations. They got here up the mountain one after the other and circled him. Previous Man stated in a loud and clear voice, “Everybody heard that Grasp managed to get Sacred Girl out, and all of us felt actually comfortable. This matter of Grasp taking on the headmaster place of Heng-Shan College; it was already identified in Jianghu for fairly a very long time. If we did not come up the mountain at present to present our congratulations, then we need to die.” These heroes had been upright and easy individuals, after speaking for a short time, they had been in a position to joke round.

Ever since he had taken residence on Heng-Shan, Linghu Chong had solely been round a bunch of nuns and younger women so he needed to speak with the utmost restriction. Now, abruptly, as he discovered so many elderly pals round him, he was extraordinarily comfortable. Huang Boliu stated, “We’re uninvited visitors so Heng-Shan College definitely hasn’t ready any meals or drink for us. So we introduced meals and wine up the mountain.”

Linghu Chong fortunately stated, “That is excellent then.” He thought, “This case is beginning to resemble that large meeting on high of the 5-Tyrant Ridge.”

As they had been speaking, round a number of hundred individuals had come up the mountain. Ji Wushi smiled and stated, “Grasp, we’re all individuals from the identical household so there is no should be well mannered. Your educated and cultured feminine disciples should not come and greet crude individuals like us. So it is best if we simply speak amongst ourselves.”

Now he discovered the mountain peak very noisy and energetic. Heng-Shan College definitely did not count on that so many visitors would abruptly flip as much as congratulate them, so all of them turned excited. There have been some outdated disciples who had been extra skilled; they noticed that the visitors who had come to congratulate them had been neither fish nor fowl. Despite the fact that there have been a number of well-known heroes, they had been all masters from the demonical path. Additionally, a number of them had been heroes and thieves from the darkish path. Heng-Shan College’s guidelines had been strict and all of the disciples guarded themselves strictly. Not solely have they got a number of contact with individuals from the orthodox path, they haven’t paid a lot consideration to them. Unexpectedly, a big group of unorthodox individuals had come as much as the height at present. However they noticed their headmaster was holding and pulling on their palms, wanting very shut, and speaking to them properly.

At midday, a number of hundred males introduced rooster, duck, cow, sheep, wine, and lots of different dishes to the highest of the mountain. Linghu Chong thought, “The height of the mountain is a sacred floor for the Goddess of Mercy Guanyin. I am the Headmaster right here, but when we had been to eat fish and meat, kill pigs and slaughter sheep, we shall be offending the ancestors of the Heng-Shan College. I might be sorry to let this occur.” He instantly informed these individuals to cook dinner the dishes on the mountainside. Nevertheless, the scent of the wine and meat drifted as much as the mountaintop which triggered many nuns to secretly scowl. After these heroes cooked their meals, they went to the entrance of the convent to take a seat inside the massive open space there. Linghu Chong sat on the west facet whereas the a number of hundred feminine disciples sat behind him in keeping with their seniority. They had been ready till the fortunate hour to provoke the “taking on the workplace” ceremony.

Out of the blue, they heard the sounds of a bunch of individuals enjoying flutes coming nearer. Two outdated males with inexperienced robes strode up the mountain. The group of heroes uttered “yi, ah” from in all places and many individuals stood up. The outdated man on the left, with a yellow complexion, cried out in a transparent voice, “Divine Solar Moon Sect’s Chief Dongfang’s delegates Jia Bu and Shangguan Yun come to congratulate Hero Linghu’s honour in changing into Heng-Shan College’s headmaster. We want Heng-Shan College to be affluent and Headmaster Linghu to be prestigious in Wulin.”

When he completed his speech, the group of heroes uttered an ‘ah’ and exploded in cheers. Half of those unorthodox path’s heroes had been related to the Satan Sect, and amongst them, there have been individuals who had taken Dongfang Bubai’s ‘Three Mind Corpse Capsule’. So after they heard the phrases ‘Chief Dongfang’ talked about, they had been scared to dying. The group of heroes did not recognise who these two individuals had been, however they’d lengthy heard of their names. The individual on the left was referred to as ‘Honourable Yellow Face’ Jia Bu, whereas the one on the fitting was referred to as Shangguan Yun, with the nickname ‘Eagle Hero’. The martial arts of those two individuals had been excessive; it was stated that their martial arts had been means above these of all of the headmasters, chiefs, and clan leaders in Wulin. The providers and {qualifications} of those individuals within the Divine Solar Moon Sect weren’t extraordinarily spectacular. However over the past a few years, the sect had undergone a giant change. Many older members resembling Xiang Wentian and others had been eliminated or went into seclusion. This present day, Jia Bu and Shangguan Yun had been two of essentially the most highly effective and first-class figures within the sect and it may be stated that Dongfang Bubai was giving Linghu Chong a number of respect by sending the 2 of them right here.

Linghu Chong went ahead to welcome them. “Mr. Dongfang and I’ve no acquaintance with one another. I do not deserve your two honourable presences.”

Linghu Chong noticed that ‘Honourable Yellow Face’ Jia Bu had a skinny face resembling a candle, and his two Taiyang acupoints had been very pronounced as if every level has a chunk of peach beneath. The ‘Eagle Hero’ Shangguan Yun, with lengthy arms, lengthy legs, and an air of assured authority, had glitteringly brilliant eyes. These indicated that the 2 of them had profound inside power.

Jia Bu stated, “At the moment is Hero Linghu’s large day. Chief Dongfang stated that initially he needed to congratulate you personally. However there are too many issues of the sect which are hindering him, and since there is no means for him to be in two locations directly, he requested Headmaster Linghu to not blame him.”

“I would not dare,” Linghu Chong replied, whereas he thought in his coronary heart, “It seems to be as if Dongfang Bubai continues to be flourishing which implies Chief Ren nonetheless hasn’t snatched the management of the sect but. I ponder how Chief Ren, Brother Xiang, and Yingying are doing proper now.”

Jia Bu leaned to 1 facet and indicated with a wave of his left hand. “Listed below are some meagre presents, small tokens of regards from Chief Dongfang. Headmaster Linghu, please settle for them.” Amidst the sound of flutes, greater than 100 individuals introduced forth forty giant pink packing containers. Every field was being carried by 4 robust males, and from the heavy steps of every man, it appeared that the objects contained in the packing containers weren’t mild.

Linghu Chong rapidly refused, “Linghu Chong is already honoured by the presence of your two honourable; I might by no means dare to obtain these presents. Additionally, please reply to Mr. Dongfang that Linghu Chong stated many thanks. On this mountain, Heng-Shan College’s disciples stay frugally however have a clear and trustworthy life, so we’ve no use for these splendid and costly objects.”

Jia Bu replied, “If Headmaster Linghu would not settle for these presents, Shangguan Yun and I shall be in large hassle.” He barely tilted his head in the direction of Shangguan Yun and stated, “Brother Shangguan, do not you suppose what I stated was proper?”

“It is proper!” Shangguan Yun answered.

Linghu Chong was troubled. He thought, “Heng-Shan College is an orthodox faculty and we’re like water and hearth along with your Satan Sect. It is already good that the 2 events aren’t preventing proper now, however we nonetheless cannot make pals with them. Additionally, Chief Ren and Yingying are going to settle their debt with Dongfang Bubai, so how can I settle for their presents?” He then stated, “Brothers, please inform Mr. Dongfang that I do not dare to obtain his presents. If you happen to did not comply with take again these presents then I am going to ship individuals to ship these presents again to your noble sect.”

Jia Bu smiled barely and stated, “Headmaster Linghu, are you aware what’s in these forty packing containers?”

“After all I do not know.”

Jia Bu laughed and replied, “As soon as Headmaster Linghu checked out it, you absolutely would not refuse it. In these forty packing containers, really, they are not all presents from Chief Dongfang. A portion of it really belongs to Headmaster Linghu. We’re simply bringing them as much as return this stuff to their unique proprietor.”

Linghu Chong was shocked. “My objects? What might they be?”

Jia Bu took a giant step ahead and replied in a whisper, “Nearly all of this stuff had been the objects left behind by younger woman Ren at Darkish Wooden Cliff, resembling garments, jewelleries, and different widespread issues. Chief Dongfang informed me to ship them again for younger woman Ren to make use of. And among the different presents are Chief’s presents to Hero Linghu and younger woman Ren. Most of the objects are combined collectively to allow them to’t be separated. Headmaster Linghu, there is no should be well mannered. Haha, haha.”

Linghu Chong’s pure disposition was open-minded and carefree, and did not confine himself to customs. Seeing that Dongfang Bubai had despatched these presents sincerely, and most of the objects additionally belonged to Yingying, he did not refuse them anymore. He laughed loudly and stated, “In that case, many thanks.”

Simply then, a feminine disciple got here rapidly in the direction of him and reported, “Wudang College’s Priest Chongxu has come to attend the ceremony.”

Shocked, Linghu Chong rapidly walked in the direction of the doorway of the mountain peak to welcome Priest Chongxu who had include eight of his disciples. Linghu Chong bowed to salute him. “Honorable Priest, Linghu Chong is deeply grateful.”

Priest Chongxu smiled. “When Poor Priest heard of you changing into the Headmaster of Heng-Shan, I used to be actually comfortable. Shaolin’s Nice Grasp Fangzheng and Fangsheng are additionally coming to congratulate you. Have they arrived but?”

Linghu Chong was much more confounded. At this second, there have been a bunch of monks strolling up in the direction of the mountaintop. The 2 individuals strolling in entrance had their sleeves floating round. They had been Abbot Fangzheng and Nice Grasp Fangsheng. Fangzheng referred to as out, “Priest Chongxu, you walked actually quick and arrived right here earlier than us.”

Linghu Chong went down the mountain to welcome them. He referred to as out, “Nice Masters have come right here personally, how is Linghu Chong worthy of this?”

Fangsheng laughed. “Younger hero, you had entered Shaolin thrice already, and but that is simply our first go to to you right here at Heng-Shan. So it may be stated that we’re simply respectfully visiting one another.”

Linghu Chong welcomed the Shaolin’s monks and Wudang’s clergymen up the mountaintop. When the group of heroes on the mountaintop noticed that Shaolin and Wudang Colleges’ leaders personally got here, they had been astonished and did not dare to talk so loudly. All of the Heng-Shan College’s feminine disciples appeared happy, and so they all thought, “Martial brother Headmaster’s status is so giant.”

Jia Bu and Shangguan Yun gave a look after which turned a blind eye in the direction of Fangzheng, Fangsheng, Chongxu, and the remainder of their individuals.

Linghu Chong requested Nice Grasp Fangzheng and Priest Chongxu to sit whereas he contemplated, “I remembered when Grasp turned the chief of Huashan, the leaders of Shaolin College and Wudang College did not personally come; they only despatched their individuals. I used to be nonetheless younger at the moment and did not know any of the visitors, however when Grasp and Grasp-Spouse talked about what was occurring at the moment, they by no means talked about the presence of Shaolin and Wudang Colleges’ leaders. At the moment, they each arrived on the identical time; did they actually come right here to congratulate me or have they got different intentions?”

A stream of individuals continued developing the mountain. Most of them had been the heroes who took half in attacking the Shaolin temple. Kunlun College, Diancang College, Emei College, Kongtong College, Beggar Clan, and all the opposite large clans despatched representatives to congratulate and ship the presents. When Linghu Chong noticed that the quantity of people that had come as much as congratulate him was fairly giant, he felt relieved. “They’ve all come right here due to Heng-Shan College and Dingxian Shi Tai’s reputations. It is not due to Linghu Chong’s status.” Songshan, Huashan, Hengshan, and Taishan Colleges did not ship anybody to congratulate him.

Because the thunderous sound of firecrackers went off, marking the arrival of the auspicious hour, Linghu Chong stood in the midst of the sphere and bowed, saluting everybody round him. Then he stated in a transparent voice, “Heng-Shan College’s former chief, Dingxian Shi Tai, sadly met with somebody’s plot, and along with Dingyi Shi Tai, she handed away. I, Linghu Chong, bear the final want of Dingxian Shi Tai to take up the management of Heng-Shan College. Everybody in Heng-Shan College feels grateful for the presence of all of the honourable seniors and pals right here.” Then, accompanied by the sound of cymbals, Heng-Shan College’s disciples lined up in two rows, one after one other. Within the center had been 4 of essentially the most senior disciples, Yihe, Yiqing, Yizhen, and Yizhi; every of them was holding a Buddhist relic. They walked as much as Linghu Chong and bowed to him. Linghu Chong joined his two palms, returning the respect. Yihe stated, “These 4 Buddhist relics had been handed down by ancestor Xiaofeng Shi Tai through the inauguration of the Heng-Shan College. They’re to be handed all the way down to successive Headmasters. New Headmaster, martial brother Linghu, please obtain this stuff.”

“Sure,” Linghu Chong responded.

The 4 disciples handed over every merchandise accordingly. The objects had been a scroll of scripture, a picket fish, a strand of prayer beads, and a dagger. When Linghu Chong noticed the picket fish and the prayer beads, he felt embarrassed. He prolonged his palms to obtain them however each of his eyes had been wanting on the floor, afraid to have a look at the eyes of the individuals within the crowd. Yiqing unfolded the scroll and stated, “Heng-Shan College’s 5 commandments: The primary commandment is to by no means disobey your superior, the second commandment is to by no means hurt individuals in the identical faculty, the third commandment is to by no means kill the innocents, the fourth commandment is to at all times be an upright individual, and the fifth commandment is to by no means make pals with evil. These are the directions left behind by the ancestor of the Heng-Shan College. Martial brother Headmaster should personally set an instance and lead the disciples; these guidelines should be obeyed.”

“Sure!” Linghu Chong responded. He thought in his coronary heart, “The primary three commandments are alright. However Linghu Chong is not that upright, and this commandment “to not make pals with evil individuals” shall be very onerous to do. At the moment on this mountaintop, half of the visitors listed below are individuals from the unorthodox path.”

Out of the blue he heard individuals developing the mountain calling out, “5 Mountains Sword Colleges’ Chief Zuo has an order. Linghu Chong cannot usurp the management of Heng-Shan College.”

Amidst the clamour, 5 individuals rushed up adopted by tens of individuals behind them. These first 5 individuals had been every holding an embroidered flag, which had been the alliance flags of the 5 Mountains Sword Colleges. They stopped tens of toes away from the group. Amongst these 5 individuals was a brief and stout individual, with a yellow chubby face, trying to be round fifty years outdated. Linghu Chong recognised that individual as Yue Hou with the nickname ‘Nice Yin and Yang Palms’. He was a superb fighter from the Songshan College. That day within the wilderness in Henan, Linghu Chong had fought with him and had pierced each of Yue Hou’s palms together with his lengthy sword, and triggered a deep hatred between them. However Yue Hou was a gentleman; On one other day, he ambushed Linghu Chong and managed to defeat him however as an alternative of killing him, he jumped again to present Linghu Chong an opportunity to combat once more. For this, Linghu Chong felt grateful in the direction of Yue Hou.

Linghu Chong instantly cupped his fist and stated, “Senior Yue, you’re effectively.”

Yue Hou waved the command flag and bellowed, “Heng-Shan College is a member of the 5 mountains sword faculties alliance so you will need to obey Chief Zuo’s order.”

“After Linghu Chong assumed the management of Heng-Shan College, we’ll want to debate whether or not we’re nonetheless part of the 5 mountains sword faculties alliance or not,” Linghu Chong replied.

By then, the remaining individuals had arrived on high of the mountain. They had been disciples from Songshan, Huashan, Hengshan, and Taishan Colleges. The eight disciples from Huashan had been Linghu Chong’s former martial brothers, however Lin Pingzhi wasn’t amongst them. These individuals fashioned 4 rows and stood quietly whereas greedy the deal with of their swords. Yue Hou stated in a loud voice, “The college of Heng-Shan should be led by a Buddhist nun. Linghu Chong is a person. How can he violate the varsity guidelines that had stood for 100 years at Heng-Shan?”

“Guidelines are made up by individuals, to allow them to even be modified by individuals. That is our personal sect’s inside matter and can’t be interfered with by outsiders,” Linghu Chong responded.

From inside the crowd, individuals began to scold Yue Hou, “That is their Heng-Shan College’s matter. What’s that acquired to do along with your Songshan College?” “Your granny, rapidly scram!” “What 5 mountains chief? Canine Chief, how shameless!”

Yue Hou stated in the direction of Linghu Chong, “What are these filthy individuals doing right here?”

“All these brothers are my pals, they’re right here to attend the ceremony,” Linghu Chong answered.

“Alright. Heng-Shan College has 5 main commandments. What is the fifth one?” Yue Hou requested.

Linghu Chong thought, “You are intentionally making an attempt to place me down, so I will debate this with you.” He answered, “Of Heng-Shan College’s 5 main commandments, the fifth one isn’t to make pals with evil. Linghu Chong positively would by no means make pals with individuals like brother Yue.”

When the group heard this, they erupted in laughter and shouted, “Evil disciples, rapidly scram!” Yue Hou, together with the disciples from Songshan, Huashan, and the remainder of the faculties noticed the state of affairs, and every one among them thought that the enemies had been loads and so they had been few. If the enemies had been to combat with them, then they might be in large hassle. Yue Hou then thought, “Martial brother Zuo has misplaced this time. He anticipated that we solely need to cope with a bunch of nuns and younger women, so the disciples from the 4 faculties can be sufficient to take management of the state of affairs. Despite the fact that Linghu Chong’s sword artwork is sweet, we might be better off when there is no sword in his hand. The 5 of us brothers might assault him now and we’d definitely have the ability to kill him. Who would’ve thought that there can be so many visitors up right here, together with the leaders of Shaolin and Wudang Colleges.” He instantly turned his physique in the direction of Fangzheng and Chongxu and stated, “Seniors, you’re presently the 2 high masters in Wulin and folks look as much as you. At the moment, I ask you to please converse a number of phrases right here. Linghu Chong had gathered so many demons right here at Heng-Shan; is not this in violation of Heng-Shan College’s commandment to by no means make pals with evil individuals? Heng-Shan College has lasted for thus lengthy and has loved a grand status as an orthodox faculty. Every little thing would flip the wrong way up in Linghu Chong’s hand; are the 2 of you simply going to take a seat there and do nothing?”

Fangzheng coughed earlier than saying, “This… this… hmmm…” He thought that what this individual stated was affordable. Nearly all of individuals current there have been individuals from the unorthodox path, however how might he ask Linghu Chong to inform all of them to go down the mountain?

Out of the blue, developing the mountain path, they heard a transparent and crisp voice of a woman asserting, “Divine Solar Moon Sect’s younger woman Ren has arrived!”

Linghu Chong was comfortable and shocked on the identical time. He could not cease himself from blurting out, “Yingying has come!” He hurriedly went in the direction of the mountain facet and noticed two large males carrying a bit of green-coloured sedan chair rapidly up the trail. Behind the sedan chair adopted 4 maids carrying inexperienced clothes.

When the individuals from the unorthodox path heard that Yingying had come, they rushed down the mountain to welcome her. They shouted their welcomes to her and crowded across the sedan chair because it got here as much as the height.

When the sedan chair stopped, the curtain parted, and a lady carrying a pale inexperienced robe stepped out of it. It was actually Yingying. The gang cheered, “Sacred Girl! Sacred Girl!” and so they all bowed in the direction of her exhibiting expressions of respect, admiration, and worry. The enjoyment they confirmed was real and got here from their hearts. Linghu Chong walked up a number of steps and smiled. “Yingying, you have additionally come!”

Yingying returned his smile and stated, “At the moment is your large day, how can I not come?” She then glanced throughout the group, walked a number of steps, and gave her propriety in the direction of Fangzheng and Chongxu. “Nice Grasp Abbot, Headmaster Priest, I offer you my respect.”

Fangzheng and Chongxu returned her propriety, whereas they each thought of their hearts, “Linghu Chong and you’re on good phrases, however you should not have come at present. You are simply making issues tougher for Linghu Chong.”

Yue Hou stated in a loud voice, “This woman in an vital determine within the Satan Sect. Linghu Chong, what do you say to this?”

“What if she is?” Linghu Chong replied.

“Heng-Shan College’s fifth main commandment stipulates that you will need to by no means make pals with evil. If you happen to do not sever your relationship with these evil individuals, then you’ll be able to’t be the headmaster of Heng-Shan College.”

“I will not be the headmaster then, what’s so vital about that?”

Yingying gave him a glance; each of her eyes had been stuffed with affection. She thought, “Only for me, you’d forsake the whole lot.” She requested, “Headmaster Linghu, who is that this individual? Why did he come right here asking about Heng-Shan College’s matter?”

Linghu Chong answered, “He was despatched right here by Songshan College’s Headmaster Zuo. In his hand is Headmaster Zuo’s command flag. Not to mention a small command flag, even when Headmaster Zuo had come personally, how can I simply let him meddle in my Heng-Shan College’s matter?”

Yingying nodded her head and agreed, “Proper.” Her ideas went again to the combat that occurred in Shaolin temple the place Zuo Lengchan gave them a number of drawback through the use of the Polar Ice Vitality to closely injure her father, and the way her father got here near shedding his life. She could not assist feeling indignant as she stated, “Who stated that that is 5 Mountains Sword Colleges’ alliance flag? He is swindling individuals…” She had not completed her phrases when her physique swayed and the glint of a brief sword was seen on her left hand as she stabbed it in the direction of Yue Hou’s chest.

Yue Hou had by no means anticipated that such a fragile and delightful woman would assault so viciously. She did not give any trace beforehand that she was going to assault and her assault was quick as lightning. As her sword stabbed out, it was too late for him to tug out his personal sword, so he slanted his physique avoiding the stab. However he did not anticipate that Yingying’s transfer was a false transfer, in order he slanted his physique, the grip on his proper hand loosened and his opponent snatched the embroidered flag. Yingying did not cease there however stabbed 4 extra instances at 4 flag holders, which allowed her to grab all 5 flags. She used the identical actual transfer for all 5 strikes. The opposite 4 Songshan College’s disciples had been all Yue Hou’s martial brothers, and their naked hand martial arts had been all good. Zuo Lengchan had dispatched them with the intention of constructing a shock assault on Linghu Chong utilizing their naked palms. However Yingying’s assault was too fast, and in a second, she had managed to grab all of the flags with out them managing to assault again. Despite the fact that they’d misplaced, it might be stated that they had been ambushed.

Yingying introduced the flags over and circled behind Linghu Chong’s physique. She stated loudly, “Headmaster Linghu, these flags are faux. These aren’t the 5 mountains sword faculties’ command flags. These are the 5 Fairies Sect’s 5 poison flags.” She then furled open the 5 flags and everybody understood. On the 5 flags had been the drawings of 5 venomous pests: snake, centipede, spider, scorpion, and toad. The colors had been brilliant and the pests seemed alive. How might they be the 5 mountains sword faculties’ command flags?

Yue Hou and his group had been shocked and did not know what to say. Previous Man, Zu Qianqiu and their group of heroes had been cheering loudly. Everybody knew that after Yingying snatched the command flags, she instantly hid them away and in some way exchanged them with the 5 poison flags. However her hand was really too quick, and nobody noticed clearly how she did this.

Yingying referred to as out, “Chief Blue!” A good looking Miao woman walked out from the group and laughingly answered, “I am right here! What’s Sacred Girl’s order?” She was Blue Phoenix, the chief of the 5 Fairies Sect. Yingying requested, “How did your 5 poison flags find yourself in Songshan College’s palms?”

Blue Phoenix laughed and answered, “These Songshan College disciples are all good pals of my sect’s feminine disciples. They have to’ve uttered candy phrases to swindle my sect’s 5 poison flags.”

“That is how it’s. I am going to return these 5 flags to you then,” Yingying then tossed the 5 flags to her.

Blue Phoenix laughed and stated, “Many thanks.” She prolonged her hand and grabbed the flags.

Yue Hou was livid. He scolded, “Shameless witch, what sort of demonical strategies are you utilizing to deceive us? Rapidly give us again the command flags.”

Yingying smiled, “If you’d like the 5 poison flags, why do not you ask Chief Blue for them?”

Yue Hou did not know what to take action he turned in the direction of Fangzheng and Chongxu. “Nice Grasp Abbot, Priest Chongxu, you’re seniors of noble character and excessive status, please preside over this injustice.”

Fangzheng stammered, “This… hmmm… by no means make pals with evil, Heng-Shan College definitely has this commandment, however… however… at present, these pals from Jianghu are coming to attend the ceremony, so Headmaster Linghu cannot simply shut the door and switch them away, that is simply too disrespectful…”

Yue Hou abruptly pointed to an individual within the crowd and loudly shouted, “He… he… I recognise him as that rapist Tian Boguang! He is disguising himself as a monk. Are you making an attempt to hide your self from my eyes? Are these varieties of individuals additionally Linghu Chong’s pals?” Then in a fierce tone, he shouted, “Tian Boguang, what are you doing in Heng-Shan?”

“I got here to pay my respect to Grasp,” Tian Boguang replied.

Yue Hou was baffled, “Pay your respect to Grasp?”

“That is proper.” Tian Boguang then walked as much as Yilin and kowtowed a number of instances. “Grasp, disciple pays his respect. Disciple is correcting my wrongs and my Buddhist identify is known as ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’.”

Yilin blushed and barely moved away avoiding the kowtow. “You… you…”

Yingying smiled and stated, “Grasp Tian is popping his coronary heart away from the demonical and returning to the orthodox path, and had additionally taken a grasp; that is actually good. He has additionally grow to be a Buddhist with the identify ‘Can’t Have No Commandment’; this reveals that he is honest in his intention. Nice Grasp Fangzheng, the right means is to desert the knife and be part of the Buddhist order. When an individual is set to appropriate his methods, then Buddha will give this individual a brand new path to tread on, is not this proper?”

Fangzheng fortunately replied, “That proper! Can’t Have No Commandment has joined the Heng-Shan College, and should strictly comply with the varsity’s guidelines any longer. That is actually the great fortune of Wulin.”

Yingying then stated loudly, “Everybody heard it; we have all come right here at present to affix the Heng-Shan College. If Headmaster Linghu is keen to just accept us, then all of us will grow to be the disciples of Heng-Shan College. How can Heng-Shan’s disciples be considered evil?”

Out of the blue, a flash of comprehension went by means of Linghu Chong. “So Yingying knew that I would be embarrassed to be the headmaster of a bunch of feminine disciples. If there have been a number of male members within the faculty, then nobody would have the ability to ridicule me. That is why she informed all these individuals to affix Heng-Shan College.” He rapidly requested in a transparent voice, “Martial sister Yihe, is there any faculty rule that prohibit the varsity from accepting male disciples?”

Yihe replied, “There is not any rule that prohibits accepting male disciples into the varsity, however… however…” Quickly, she could not get her thoughts to work. She thought that it was inappropriate for thus many male disciples to be abruptly within the faculty.

Linghu Chong stated, “It is excellent that everybody needs to affix the Heng-Shan College. However there is no must pay your respect. Heng-Shan College will organize one other… hmmm… a ‘Heng-Shan Different Courtyard’ for everyone to settle in. That Tong Yuan valley over there’s a good place for that.”

The Tong Yuan valley was located in addition to the Xianxing Peak. Based on the tales, through the Tang dynasty, Zhang Guolao meditated there to grow to be a deity. There was additionally a giant rock on Heng-Shan with a number of donkey hoof marks on it, and the tales say these hoof marks had been made by the donkey ridden by Zhang Guolao. These donkey’s hoof marks had been imprinted deeply in granite; if this weren’t finished by a deity then how might it have been finished? Emperor Tang Xuanzong gave the title of ‘Mr. Tong Yuan’ to Zhang Guolao. The identify of Tong Yuan Valley was taken from this. Tong Yuan Valley was not removed from Xianxing Peak, which was the place the convent was situated. However from the valley to the height, the mountain path was harmful. Linghu Chong organized the dwelling quarters for these Jianghu heroes at Tong Yuan Valley in order that there can be separation between women and men in order to keep away from slanders.

Fangzheng nodded his head and stated, “That is excellent. These pals are becoming a member of the Heng-Shan College and agreed to abide by Heng-Shan College’s phrases. That is actually a joyful event in Wulin.”

Yue Hou realised that his opponents had elevated in numbers when he noticed Nice Grasp Fangzheng speaking like this. It appeared that at present he wouldn’t have the ability to cease Linghu Chong from changing into the headmaster of Heng-Shan College. So he proceeded to convey Zuo Lengchan’s second process.

He coughed to achieve consideration and stated in a transparent voice, “5 Mountains Sword Colleges Chief Zuo has an order: on the fifteenth of the third month, all 5 mountains sword faculties should ship their disciples to Songshan to elect the headmaster of the 5 Mountains College. Everybody should attend and should arrive on time.”

Linghu Chong requested, “Whose thought is it to mix the 5 mountains sword faculties into one?”

Yue Hou answered, “Songshan, Taishan, Huashan, and Hengshan Colleges have all permitted of this. In case your Heng-Shan College objected to this, you then can be brazenly making issues troublesome for the opposite 4 faculties, and you may solely be asking for hassle.” He then circled in the direction of the Taishan College’s disciples and requested, “Do you not suppose that that is the reality?” The tens of individuals standing behind him answered collectively, “That is proper!”

Yue Hou laughed coldly and circled to go away. After a number of steps, he turned his head round to have a look at Yingying. He thought, “How do I get again these 5 command flags?”

Blue Phoenix laughed, “Trainer Yue, now that you’ve got misplaced these flags, how are you going to return to Headmaster Zuo? It might be higher if I return it to you!” After she stated this, she tossed a flag at him.

When Yue Hou noticed the little flag flying in the direction of him, he thought, “That is your 5 Poison flag, not the 5 Mountains command flag, why would I would like it?” Nevertheless, the flag had virtually reached his throat so he rapidly prolonged his hand to catch it. As quickly as he caught it, he abruptly referred to as out loudly and swiftly dropped the flag. His palm felt prefer it was on hearth. He turned his palm over to have a look and noticed his palm had turned purple. He realized that there was poison on the pole of the flag and he had been trapped by the 5 Fairies Sect. Feeling alarmed and indignant, he angrily scolded, “Witch…”

Blue Phoenix laughingly stated, “You name ‘Headmaster Linghu’ and ask for his assist, then I am going to provide the drugs. In any other case, your entire palm would rot.”

Yue Hou knew of the severity of the 5 Fairies Sect’s poison. In his hesitation, he felt his palm getting numb and shedding feeling. His entire lifetime’s martial artwork was in his two palms. If his two palms had been to rot then he would grow to be a cripple. This made him frightened with worries. He rapidly referred to as out, “Headmaster Linghu, you… “

Blue Phoenix laughed and interrupted him, “Ask for assist.”

“Headmaster Linghu, I offended you, I ask… ask you to please give me the med… drugs.”

Linghu Chong smiled and replied, “Girl Blue, brother Yue was solely doing what Headmaster Zuo ordered. Please give him the medication.”

Blue Phoenix laughed and waved her hand in the direction of a Miao woman standing in addition to her. That Miao woman took a packet out from her bosom, walked ahead a number of steps, and tossed that packet to Yue Hou. Yue Hou grabbed the packet in a rush and the group erupted in laughter. He rapidly walked down the mountain adopted by his individuals.

Linghu Chong introduced in a transparent voice, “Associates, because you all agreed to reside at Heng-Shan’s Different Courtyard; you will need to all adjust to the varsity’s commandments.
