The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun

Page 289

Ren Woxing stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking, and did not continue.

Ren Woxing suddenly sensed a faint killing intent.

Looking to the side, he saw Fang Zheng looking at him.

Chapter 385: Discord

Fang Zheng's expression was serene, like that of a kind elder.

But Ren Woxing had already sensed that the killing intent emanating from Fang Zheng.

"Demon, what's wrong with my two grandmasters, Yue and Cai?"

Ning Zhongze pressed for an answer.

Ren Woxing came to his senses, glanced at Ning Zhongze, and laughed, "It's nothing. I just wanted to say that if it weren't for the falling out between Yue and Cai back then, which caused your Huashan Sect to split into the Sword and Qi Sects, the Huashan Sect wouldn't have fallen into its current state."

"Humph!"

Ning Zhongze snorted coldly.

"It's only a matter of time before the Huashan Sect, under my husband's leadership, returns to its former glory."

"hehe."

Ren Woxing sneered: "Then my Divine Sect will have to see with our own eyes how the Huashan Sect returns to its peak. I'll be watching."

"That's none of your business, you defeated general."

Ning Zhongze responded coldly.

Ren Woxing snorted coldly.

"Master Yue's martial arts are indeed superb, but the most powerful thing in the world is not martial arts, but conspiracy and trickery."

As if he had thought of something, Ren Woxing said again, "Intrigue and trickery can turn me from the leader of a cult who is above all others into a prisoner, and can also cause a power to decline from its peak. Great monk, don't you agree?"

Ren Woxing looked at Fang Zheng one last time.

"Amitabha."

Fang Zheng put his hands together in prayer position.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Ren Woxing laughed heartily, and then took one last look at Yue Buqun.

"Sect Leader Yue, my old injuries have flared up today, and I have temporarily lost to you. I will fight you again another day to settle the score!"

After saying this, Ren Woxing led the Sun Moon Sect down the mountain in a grand procession.

Xiang Wentian and Ren Yingying quickly followed, but before leaving, they both turned back to look at Jiang Ning.

Both of them had hatred and murderous intent in their eyes.

Sensing the murderous intent in their eyes, Jiang Ning didn't look at Wentian, but instead looked at Ren Yingying, a smile playing on his lips.

Seeing Jiang Ning smile at her, Ren Yingying's hatred deepened, and she couldn't help but want to rush up and kill Jiang Ning, but reason made her restrain herself.

She understood that her martial arts skills were no match for Jiang Ning's now, and it was impossible for her to kill him. She also had no chance of killing Jiang Ning today.

But she will definitely not give up.

Before leaving, Ren Yingying turned back to look at Jiang Ning one last time, and the look in her eyes was terrifying to those around her.

Jiang Ning still wore that same smile.

Ren Woxing has descended the mountain.

The followers of the Sun Moon Sect had lost the momentum they had when they first came up the mountain, and they all fell silent as they descended.

Seeing that the Sun Moon Sect had descended the mountain, the martial arts figures and sect leaders, including Fang Zheng, who were still on the Fengchan Terrace of Mount Song, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A bloody battle was finally averted.

Fang Zheng thought to himself.

Fortunately, Ren Woxing wasn't too keen on fighting.

Before Ren Woxing had even started his long-winded speech, Ren Woxing had concluded that Ren Woxing was unlikely to choose to start a war with the righteous path at this time, or that he was not ready yet, and that Ren Woxing might have other purposes for coming to Mount Song.

Although it is unknown how Ren Woxing returned to the martial arts world, what he wants to do most now is to take back the position of leader of the Sun Moon Sect from Dongfang Bubai, not to engage in a fierce battle with the righteous sects.

Based on this, Fang Zheng became even more certain in subsequent communications with Ren Woxing.

Ren Woxing did not come to Mount Song to start a war.

Therefore, when Ren Woxing accepted the three battles, Fang Zheng was not worried that the two sides would engage in a major battle.

However, after avoiding this bloody battle, Fang Zheng couldn't help but frown again.

Ren Woxing's appearance was too sudden. Fang Zheng still doesn't understand what happened on the Sun Moon Sect's side. He hadn't received any prior notice. How could Dongfang Bubai have released Ren Woxing?

Fang Zheng's eyes revealed worry.

Ren Woxing's personality is nothing like the current Dongfang Bubai. Ren Woxing's appearance in the martial arts world will surely turn the world upside down.

"Senior brother."

Fang Sheng approached silently.

Fang Zheng glanced at him.

"Go and investigate when Leader Ren came out, and the current situation of the Sun Moon Cult."

He urgently needed to find out what exactly was going on with the Sun Moon Cult.

Fang Sheng nodded.

"Okay, senior brother."

……

At the foot of Mount Song.

Ren Woxing, who had just come down from the Fengchan Terrace on Mount Song, had a gloomy face and a very suppressed aura.

The followers of the Sun Moon Sect were now silent, too terrified to utter a sound.

On the way down the mountain, Ren Woxing killed several elders who were flattering him.

"father……"

Ren Yingying walked over.

Ren Yingying wanted to talk to Ren Woxing about how they had failed to achieve their goal on their trip to Songshan and what to do next, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Ren Woxing looked directly at her with a cold gaze.

Ren Yingying's heart skipped a beat when she was being stared at.

Ren Woxing just stared at her, his face expressionless, without saying a word.

"Let it go this time, but don't act on your own initiative again next time."

Ren Woxing said coldly.

“Although I, Ren Woxing, am not a virtuous gentleman, I have always acted with integrity and uprightness. Even if my old injury flares up and I am at a disadvantage, it is because I am inferior to my opponent. Why should I need help from others? Otherwise, I would only earn the reputation of a villain.”

Ren Woxing wasn't stupid. When he was fighting Yue Buqun, the person whose head was crushed by Jiang Ning's foot would never have dared to intervene without Ren Yingying's orders.

"Yes, Master."

Ren Yingying lowered her head and did not offer any explanation.

Ren Woxing didn't say anything more, but looked at Xiang Wentian.

"Brother Xiang, this time you lost an arm because of this."

Xiang Wentian's wounds have been treated and his condition has improved a lot. However, the bandage on his severed arm is still seeping blood and staining the cloth. Xiang Wentian's expression is also pale, and his lips are white.

After hearing Ren Woxing's words, Xiang Wentian looked solemn and said.

"It is my honor to serve the leader. I dare not accept such treatment from the leader. It is only because I am incompetent that I was defeated by that brat and disgraced the leader."

Ren Woxing raised his hand and said.

"Brother Xiang, we can address each other as brothers; there's no need for you to act like a subordinate."

Xiang Wentian glanced at Ren Yingying out of the corner of his eye, then lowered his head and said.

"Yes, Master."

Ren Woxing seemed to be in a much better mood now, no longer with a gloomy face as before, though his complexion was still unpleasant.

Xiang Wentian glanced at Ren Yingying discreetly and noticed that Ren Yingying was expressionless and seemed lost in thought.

After sighing inwardly, Xiang Wentian spoke again.

"Master, Yingying was worried about your safety and that's why she acted that way in a moment of panic."

Ren Woxing's expression remained completely unchanged.

Xiang Wentian said, "For the past ten years or so, under the surveillance of that old thief Dongfang, Yingying has faced many difficulties. She has been secretly inquiring about the whereabouts of the sect leader, hoping to rescue him one day. Now that the sect leader and Yingying have been reunited, it should be a joyous occasion. However, the sect leader was unwell just now, and Yingying was truly worried about his safety. I hope the sect leader can understand Yingying's sincere feelings."

Ren Woxing remained silent, but his expression shifted slightly.

Chapter 386: The Four Immortals of Peach Valley Perform Consistently as Usual

Xiang Wentian stopped trying to persuade him.

Words should be concise and to the point; any more and people will become annoyed, especially someone like Ren Woxing, who is domineering and doesn't allow anyone to question him.

Xiang Wentian grasped the right balance.

Ren Woxing's expression remained unchanged, but his aura was no longer as terrifying as before.

After Ren Woxing reprimanded her, Ren Yingying kept her head down and remained silent. When Xiang Wentian tried to explain for her, she didn't say a word and her face showed no emotion. It was unclear what she was thinking.

Ren Woxing and his group descended the mountain in silence, where a group of Sun Moon Sect followers were waiting at the foot of Mount Song.

"Master, Holy Maiden, you've finally finished your calculations."

After descending Shengguan Peak, several people stood at the foot of the mountain; they were none other than the Four Immortals of Peach Valley.

Upon seeing Ren Woxing and Ren Yingying, the Four Immortals of Peach Valley beamed with joy and approached them.

"Didn't I tell you to wait outside?"

Looking at these four ugly creatures, Ren Woxing's face darkened instinctively, and he immediately reprimanded them.

After the Four Immortals of Peach Valley were found, he initially thought that these four people had good martial arts skills and could be trained, so he kept them by his side, but he gave up after only a few days.

The phrase "rotten wood cannot be carved" is a compliment to the Four Immortals of Peach Valley. Their level of stupidity left Ren Woxing at a loss, and he simply told these four to stay away from him.

Previously, Ren Woxing was afraid that they would go up and talk nonsense, which would damage the image of the Sun Moon Sect, so he left them down below.

But these ugly things actually came over.

"Is it fun up there, Master?"

"Master, why did it take you so long to come down?"

"Master, I heard that the Five Mountains Sword Sect has a new leader. Has the leader been chosen yet? Who is it?"

"We have something to report to the leader."

Listening to the four old men chattering away, Ren Woxing subconsciously felt his head spinning, and he didn't even hear what Tao Genxian said about having something to report.

"Master, why aren't you saying anything?"

Peach Blossom Fairy was still chattering on and on.

"Yingying, why do you look so grumpy? You're even uglier than me."

Tao Ye Xian stared blankly at Ren Yingying, her expression somewhat curious.

Ren Yingying ignored him.

"Shut up!"

Ren Woxing finally snapped at them, which stopped the four from talking.
