Very good, at least the mysterious person didn't take away my family's ancestral sword manual, so there's hope for my revenge.
Thinking of this, he looked at Linghu Chong with gratitude.
Chen Yan chuckled, "Don't be too happy yet. Although Linghu Chong retrieved the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual and was taken back to the inn by Lady Ning, the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual that he originally carried in his arms... has mysteriously disappeared..."
what?
Ah!
Lin Pingzhi exclaimed in surprise.
Yue Lingshan's expression changed.
The onlookers at Tongfu Inn were also wide-eyed.
"Manager Chen, didn't you say that Linghu Chong snatched back the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, kept it in his bosom, and then I took it back to the inn to treat his injuries?"
Chong'er wouldn't embezzle the Ping family's sword manual, and neither would I.
How could the sword manual have disappeared?
Even the usually composed Ning Zhongze was momentarily speechless and asked in surprise.
Chen Yan smiled.
He glanced meaningfully at Yue Buqun, who sat upright to the side, his eyes fixed straight ahead.
He exclaimed, "Master Yue's appearance as a virtuous gentleman is well-hidden; no wonder he has earned the title of 'Gentleman Sword' in the martial arts world."
Yue Buqun remained expressionless and slowly nodded: "Thank you for your praise, sir."
Chen Yan was speechless: "You think I'm praising you?"
Ha ha.
I just want to say that although you are called the Gentleman's Sword, you are not a true gentleman...
Chapter Twelve: The Collapse of the Huashan Sect, Chen Yan Makes a Fortune!
"Manager Chen, what do you mean by saying that I, Yue, am not a gentleman?!"
Yue Buqun was struck to the core by Chen Yan's words, but his expression remained completely unchanged.
But a storm was brewing within me.
How could Chen Yan know he wasn't a true gentleman when he had hidden himself so well all these years?
Ning Zhongze, Yue Lingshan, Linghu Chong, Lin Pingzhi and others also showed expressions of disbelief.
Yue Buqun is the renowned Gentleman Sword.
His good looks and character are well-known throughout the martial arts world.
Chen Yan said he was not a gentleman; wasn't that just making things up?
"Although I am not talented and my Huashan School skills are very rudimentary, I am not so good as to covet other people's martial arts."
Yue Buqun tried to defend himself again.
Chen Yan smiled and shook his head: "If you don't covet the Lin family sword manual, why did you send Lao Denuo and Yue Lingshan to Fuzhou in disguise?"
The timing was also incredibly coincidental, coinciding with the time when the Lin family was wiped out by the Qingcheng Sect.
Are they being sent on a sightseeing trip?
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun's expression changed.
Yue Lingshan, Lin Pingzhi, Linghu Chong, and the others also looked slightly somber, their faces showing suspicion.
Especially Lin Pingzhi.
He used to think Yue Buqun was a gentleman and never considered the worst possible outcome.
After Chen Yan's reminder, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Yue Lingshan glanced at Yue Buqun and gritted her teeth, saying, "Even if my father covets the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual, Xiao Linzi wouldn't kill me for that reason, would he?"
"Indeed not."
There are other reasons why Lin Pingzhi killed you.
The reason lies in the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual.
Well, how should I put it... this sword manual is called "Evil-Repelling Sword," but it's actually filled with evil energy, and those who practice it will experience some degree of personality change.
"There's something wrong with my family's ancestral sword manual?!"
Lin Pingzhi was shocked and couldn't believe it.
Chen Yan looked at him and said, "Do you know why your ancestor Lin Yuantu was so powerful and established the great name of Fuwei Escort Agency?"
But your father, Lin Zhennan, is only mediocre, even weaker than second-rate masters like the Four Heroes of Qingcheng?
Lin Pingzhi was dumbfounded and confused.
He had thought about this question for a long time, but he didn't have a definite answer.
Chen Yan: "The reason is simple: if Lin Zhennan had practiced the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, he wouldn't have been able to father a son like you..."
Yue Lingshan was completely bewildered: "Why is it that even though Uncle Lin practiced the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, he couldn't have a son named Lin?"
What connection could the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual possibly have with having a son?
Chen Yan chuckled and countered, "What kind of man can't carry on the family line?"
Yue Lingshan was still a virgin and didn't know much about matters between men and women.
Hearing Chen Yan's words, he was even more confused.
Linghu Chong's eyes flashed, and he said in disbelief, "E-eunuchs, palace eunuchs!"
Chen Yan laughed heartily.
nod.
"Yes, eunuch."
To learn the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, one must first become a eunuch.
Therefore, Lin Zhennan, in order to continue his family line, did not practice the true Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, which is why his strength was mediocre, at best only a second-rate character.
"No way! No way! How could practicing my family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual make me a eunuch?!"
You must be lying!
I absolutely do not believe it!!
Lin Pingzhi was on the verge of collapse, his body swaying precariously, when he suddenly roared.
The Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual is renowned in the martial arts world, and he has always been proud of it, wanting to find it to avenge his family and restore the Lin family's prestige.
Now I know.
Practicing the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual will make you a eunuch.
How could he possibly bear such a huge blow?
Yue Buqun's expression also changed drastically.
He had coveted the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual for a long time, and when he first heard the news, he was also stunned, his head spinning.
He was very ambitious and wanted to become a powerful figure, but he didn't want to be a eunuch.
Chen Yan smiled and asked in return, "Since practicing the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual has no side effects, why doesn't your father practice it?"
Do you know what the first eight characters of the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual are?
"To practice this skill, one must first castrate oneself!"
With such compelling evidence before him, Lin Pingzhi had no choice but to believe it.
His eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he clenched his fist and slammed it against the wall, veins bulging on his forehead.
I can't accept this explosive news.
It crashed immediately.
[Ding! The host has caused Lin Pingzhi to break down, gaining 1000 Breakdown Points!]
Chen Yan was delighted.
His crash level has reached 7,000 points.
If I collect another 3,000 points, I can draw the highest-level gold treasure chest again. How wonderful!
"Manager Chen, you mean that Xiao Linzi will also cultivate the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual in the future, and then his personality will change drastically and he will kill me?"
Yue Lingshan's eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry.
Chen Yan nodded: "That's roughly it."
After discovering that Yue Buqun was not a true gentleman, he recalled that you had been to Fuzhou when you were with the Fuwei Escort Agency. He concluded that you were in cahoots with Yue Buqun and were after their family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, and that all your kindness towards him was fake.
Therefore, I no longer trust you, and even secretly hate you.
Furthermore, after castrating himself, his evil thoughts were amplified.
