I, Ma Liang, Hate Waste Most of All!
Huiming Mountain is also a famous mountain range in the Great Liang Kingdom. As the largest sect in the Great Liang Kingdom, the Huiming Sect's prestige is naturally incomparable to that of the Gathering Fire Sect.
For the wedding of his son Huiming Sect High Person Huiming not only invited many relatives and friends from all walks of life, but also stipulated that no matter where they came from, even if they were just passing through, as long as they left a congratulatory message at the Huiming Sect's place, they would be able to enjoy a continuous feast at the Huiming Sect.
One can also stay overnight at the Huiming Sect.
It is said that Huiming Sect learned this practice from Vast Heaven Holy Land. In the past, when various sects had weddings or funerals, only distinguished guests could stay to attend banquets and stay overnight.
However, Vast Heaven Holy Land can be said to have set a precedent. Whenever Vast Heaven Holy Land holds any happy event, it invites all parties to join in the festivities in advance. Not only does it create a lively atmosphere, but it also boosts the prosperity of the sect.
Over time, many weddings and funerals across the Four Continents have begun to adopt the practice of Vast Heaven Holy Land.
For example, when the son of an elder in Martial Emperor City got married, the banquet alone lasted for almost half a month. Major forces from all over the world flocked to the wedding, and it is said that the income of Martial Emperor City and the surrounding area doubled during those two weeks!
After everything was over, Zheng Yu couldn't help but sigh. She used to think that Senior Brother Xinghe was just someone who loved excitement and enjoyed entertaining everyone, but now she realized that they were on completely different levels from him!
Although Martial Emperor City spent a lot of resources this time, the various industries under Martial Emperor City made a killing!
Therefore, many major forces are now learning from the practices of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
Of course, a sect like Huiming Sect couldn't possibly invite all the major powers in the world, but those invited by the Huiming Sect were at least prominent figures in the Great Liang Kingdom.
At the same time, the Huiming Sect's banquet certainly couldn't be as extravagant as the Vast Heaven Holy Land's...
It's a fairly standard banquet, mainly for everyone to have a good time.
The same applies to lodging; most of the accommodations were temporary structures built by the Huiming Sect in the Huiming Mountain. They were habitable, but that was about all the conditions were available.
Meanwhile, in Huiming Mountain, Night Owl and Black Sha had been lying in wait for some time, just waiting for Yue Ling to appear so they could deliver a fatal blow!
Black Sha could always keep track of Yue Ling's general movements using the Tracking Spirit Orb in his hand.
When Hei Sha saw that Yue Ling and the others were indeed heading towards Huiming Mountain, Black Sha couldn't help but flatter Ye Night Owl.
"Lord Night Owl is truly remarkable! He accurately predicted that they would pass through Night Owl Huiming Mountain and ambushed them there. Black Sha is in awe!"
Although Huiming Mountain is the only way to the capital, this only refers to the main road. If it were a side road, there would be a chance to bypass Huiming Mountain.
When Night Owl mentioned waiting earlier, Black Sha was initially skeptical.
Black Sha wondered if Yue Ling and the others might choose to take another path. After all, Yue Ling had been chased for so long; wouldn't they be overly cautious and avoid this route?
Night Owl was speechless in response to Black Sha's words...
Night Owl said, "Black Sha Hey Black Sha, do you even want to listen to whether you're speaking human language...?"
What the hell is Yue Ling being hunted down like this?
I don't know if Yue Ling was being hunted before... but who the Yue Ling has been hunting her recently?
Is that you? When the hell did you start hunting Yue Ling? You were hunting Meng Er, you killed members of the Meng Lineage... When the hell did you ever lay a hand on Yue Ling?
And in Gathering Fire City, I didn't even lay a finger on Yue Ling...
So, since Tuyang Town, when has Yue Ling been assassinated?
Do you call this "being constantly hunted down"?
Isn't this a bit too outrageous?
Black Sha: "..."
Although Black Sha was very unhappy, Black Sha had to admit that what Night Owl said... seemed to make sense...
After the two had been lying in ambush at Huiming Mountain for half a day, they discovered that the Yue Ling trio were not directly crossing Huiming Mountain to continue north, but instead choosing to head towards the Huiming Sect!
The two had not originally planned to make a move at the Huiming Sect.
After all, Huiming Sect now has many experts, all invited by High Person Huiming. Under these circumstances, it would be extremely dangerous to make a move rashly.
After all, those currently at the Huiming Sect are all guests of the Huiming Sect. Under such circumstances, if anyone attacks a guest of the Huiming Sect will certainly not let it go!
The two originally planned to wait until the Yue Ling trio left the area of Huiming Mountain before making their move to kill them!
To everyone's surprise, instead of immediately crossing Huiming Mountain to speed up their northward journey, the three members of the Yue Ling Trio chose to enter the Huiming Sect to freeload!
Damn, this made Black Sha so angry he almost peed his pants...
Black Sha said, "Yue Ling, do you even realize you're being hunted down?"
Shouldn't you look like you're being chased?
When others are being chased, they flee the scene, never revealing their identities, for fear of being discovered and facing even greater danger.
Everyone else tries to arrive a day earlier than they can afford to rest for even a second longer, because resting for even a second longer could cost them their lives!
But what the hell are you, Yue Ling?
Are you on the run? Why do you look like you're sightseeing?
You're here to eat and drink for free?
Regarding the complaints about Heisha... Ye Xiao said Heisha, Heisha, what makes you so shameless to complain about Yue Ling?
They don't seem to have any pressure to flee, so shouldn't this be a problem for both of us...?
The Night Owl said he had never been so humiliated in his life!
"Lord Night Owl, should we wait at the back until they leave Huiming Sect before making our move?"
"No... we can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, things might get complicated. As the saying goes, what appears real is actually real, and what appears real is actually fake. They think they're safe once they've entered the Huiming Sect. In this situation, they'll definitely lower their guard, which will be a good opportunity for us to strike!"
It must be said that the Night Owl is very experienced in sneak attacks.
Night Owl is right. Assassinations don't always have to be carried out in desolate places. On the contrary, those places are often where the enemy is most vigilant.
Now that Yue Ling has entered the Huiming Sect, she might actually feel safe, which makes people lower their guard.
This is actually the easiest time to succeed.
"Then let's enter the Huiming Sect now... But Lord Night Owl, please be careful. Many experts from all sides have come to the Huiming Sect this time. You must be careful to hide yourself... Don't expose yourself... After all, the Gathering Fire Sect Zhao Qi is still wanted by you!"
"You talk too much! What, you're not wanted by the Meng Lineage?"
Black Sha: "..."
Black Sha and Night Owl each had their own methods, and the two later changed their appearances and infiltrated the Huiming Sect.
Meanwhile, at the Huiming Sect's mountain gate, Yue Ling and her two companions had already arrived at the outer gate of the Huiming Sect.
"Gentlemen, do you have invitations? If not, you may rest in the outer gate!" The disciples of the Huiming Sect were indeed very polite.
Just as the Huiming Sect disciple finished speaking, Yue Ling, who had wrapped herself up like a dumpling again, shook her head. She was about to say that she didn't have an invitation, but before she could speak, Yue Ling Ma Liang said, "You do have an invitation!"
"Huh?" The disciples of the Huiming Sect were also completely bewildered...
To be honest, the combination of these three today left the Huiming Sect disciples somewhat speechless... Ma Liang, Chu Xinghe... and a masked woman...
What kind of combination is this trio? This one, Ma Liang, does look somewhat like him, while that one Chu Xinghe, doesn't resemble him at all...
But what's with this fake Ma Liang suddenly getting invitations?
Could this really be Ma Liang...?
However, the disciples of the Huiming Sect soon realized that they were overthinking things.
How could this be the real Ma Liang? What kind of person was the real Ma Liang? Even the sect leader wouldn't be qualified to invite someone like Ma Liang.
Therefore, sending an invitation to someone like Ma Liang would be utterly humiliating.
At this moment, not only the disciples guarding the mountain, but also Yue Ling and Chu Xinghe were completely dumbfounded as they stared at the invitation that Ma Liang had taken out!
Chu Xinghe said no... Why would that bastard Ma Liang have an invitation?
Regarding Senior Brother Xinghe's question, Ma Liang replied... well... Senior Brother Xinghe, you may not know, but I just went to the outhouse, didn't I?
On my way to the outhouse, I discovered that it was actually a gateway to the Huiming Sect. What a coincidence! I accidentally wandered in... and even more coincidentally, I found invitations inside... and I noticed there were still quite a few left!
Senior Brother Xinghe knows that I, Ma Liang, hate waste the most. If those invitations aren't used, wouldn't that be a waste?
So I could only make up the names of the three of us, and then I helped Huiming Sect use these three invitations, which can be considered making the best use of them!
Senior Brother Xinghe, rest assured, I do good deeds anonymously and don't seek gratitude. The Huiming Sect will never find an opportunity to thank me...
Chu Xinghe: "..."
Chu Xinghe was completely dumbfounded... So Ma Liang calls stealing "helping others"?
What the hell made you, Ma Liang, have the audacity to utter such shameless words?
Regarding your shameless behavior, Ma Liang, I, Chu Xinghe, can only say, well done!
Although they didn't understand what was going on with Ma Liang and the other two, the disciples guarding the mountain found that the invitations were perfectly fine after checking them.
These three invitations weren't even ordinary invitations; they were the kind for inviting VIPs...
Therefore, the disciples guarding the mountain immediately and respectfully invited the three of them into the sect.
Having an invitation and not having one are definitely two completely different levels of hospitality!
Outside, there was a continuous banquet, and the accommodations were temporary small houses.
However, those who could come with invitations were all the most distinguished guests, so the accommodations and food arranged by the Huiming Sect were naturally far superior to anything outside.
The three were led to a guest room for honored guests, where all kinds of fruits, tea, and snacks were provided. Although the room's environment was incomparable to that of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, it was still quite luxurious!
After the three settled in, disciples of the Huiming Sect came to inform them about the activities scheduled for that evening and inquired about their attendance.
The three of them replied that they would not attend; they were mainly there to eat at the banquet...
Huiming Sect disciple. "..."
