Upon hearing this Yihe, Yilin, and the other two were overjoyed, their faces beaming with smiles.

"Master, I'm here."

"Uncle-Master".

Some call him "Master," while others call him "Uncle-Master."

The four women laughed out loud together, genuinely, and responded as they laughed.

The sound was like a lark singing in the drizzle.

The young male disciples of the Mount Tai Sect who were gathered around blushed and lowered their heads, not daring to look up again.

The outermost Mount Tai Disciples had already made way in rows.

A path was cleared, and an old nun walked in the middle, followed by many young nuns.

The old nun had a serious expression, and although she was not tall, her steps were steady and powerful, and her demeanor was in no way inferior to that of a man.

Yilin and the other three girls went to greet them, laughing and shouting.

"Master, I almost didn't get to see you again..."

Yilin held onto Abbess Dingyi's sleeves with her two small hands.

Her fair and delicate hands were like transparent jade.

Her voice was delicate, and she suddenly started sobbing as she spoke.

Abbess Dingyi, who had been looking serious and was about to reprimand her lost disciple, was initially stern.

Seeing Yilin suddenly start crying like this, I couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

But she has a stubborn personality, doesn't know how to express herself, and has a bad temper.

Hearing Yilin say that she almost didn't see him again, I thought Yilin had been bullied.

"You brat, are you the one bullying our Hengshan Sect disciples?"

"Oh dear, Master, you've misunderstood."

"You've misunderstood, nun."

Yilin quickly stopped her master, sobbing uncontrollably.

Several people from the Mount Tai Sect and Hengshan Sect offered their explanations to Abbess Dingyi.

The old nun Dingyi, feeling somewhat embarrassed, glanced apologetically at Ji Boying.

As they talked, they walked toward the Return Goose Inn.

The place was spacious enough to accommodate several tables, and it was in this place that Abbess Dingyi met the people from the Mount Tai Sect.

That's why I asked them to help me search.

They decided to use Return Goose Inn as a contact point.

After walking half a street, another old Daoist priest, accompanied by a group of disciples, surrounded them.

They greeted each other; they were from the Mount Tai Sect again.

He was Daoist Tianbai of the Mount Tai Sect.

"You're really giving me face. Third Master Liu will be pleased to see so many of you."

Abbess Dingyi walked on the left and said this with a smile.

Daoist Tiansong patted Ji Boying on the back.

He laughed and said, "Not at all, not at all. What kind of face are we giving? It's the Mount Hua Sect that's really giving us face."

"Nephew, why aren't you with your master? Your master and the others just passed through Hengyang not long ago."

The Mount Tai Sect members also met with Yue Buqun and his group in the city.

However, since there were many and varied people from the Mount Tai Sect, they did not set off together, and Yue Buqun and his group left first.

No wonder they said it was the Mount Hua Sect that was giving them face. Although the Mount Tai Sect sent many people, not all of them came, but the Mount Hua Sect had already mobilized its entire force.

Ji Boying smiled slightly.

With a thought, he said, "Uncles, you may not know this."

Before I could even begin to explain, everyone had already entered Return Goose Inn.

Many empty tables had already been set up upstairs and downstairs; they had all been reserved in advance.

There were also many martial arts practitioners sitting in the corners drinking, and when they saw that so many people from the Five Great Mountains Sword Sects had come, they even lowered their voices to drink more quietly.

"What a master! Amazing, truly remarkable, so young and promising!"

A sound so faint it was almost imperceptible reached Ji Boying's ears.

If Shi Ji Boying hadn't possessed exceptional internal strength and remarkable hearing, he wouldn't have been able to hear that murmur.

Ji Boying made no attempt to hide his search, looking up as he searched the upper floor.

This person from the martial arts world didn't know what Ji Boying was up to and thought he was just curiously looking around.

"Grandpa, how powerful can he be? He doesn't look much older than me."

It was also a very low, delicate voice.

Ji Boying looked in the direction of the sound and indeed saw an old man and a rather clever little girl sitting in the corner.

"Grandpa, he's looking over here!"

The little girl looked surprised.

Now I truly believe that this young man's martial arts skills are amazing.

The old man smiled slightly, raised his wine glass to Ji Boying in a gentle gesture, indicating that he meant no harm.

"Who told you to whisper about others? Well, now they've found out."

Although the old man smiled, his opinion of Ji Boying rose to a new level.

Originally, Ji Boying's steps were steady and not heavy, and his spirit was full and his eyes were bright and clear, which was clearly a sign that he had achieved success in internal strength.

He casually remarked something so low that the people at the next table couldn't hear it, but Ji Boying, who was still downstairs, had already heard this barely audible discussion.

Such internal strength truly left Qu Yang in awe. Qu Yang thought to himself, "Perhaps... perhaps only those two people..."

Chi Baicheng invited Ji Boying to sit down upstairs with Tian Song, Tian Bai, and Ding Yi.

In just a few steps, Yilin had already explained the whole story, and everyone now knew that Ji Boying had killed Tian Boguang.

Several of his senior uncles praised him highly.

"Senior Brother Yue, you are truly blessed to have such a good disciple as you."

Ji Boying simply offered polite greetings.

The disciples of the Mount Tai Sect were all flushed and excited, finally realizing who Ji Boying really was.

The boy in front of them was much younger than everyone else, yet they all had to obediently call him "Senior Brother".

Although Ji Boying looked young, they hadn't actually been formally recognized by seniority. Instead, they would naturally show respect based on martial arts skills rather than age.

Those passionate young disciples of the Mount Tai Sect recalled how Ji Boying had challenged the Qingcheng Sect with his sword and had now killed the infamous lecher Tian Boguang.

Everyone couldn't help but feel their blood boiling, wishing they could take their place.

They have not yet mastered their skills and are still unknown in the martial arts world. This senior brother, though young, already has a prestige no less than that of the leaders of major sects.

Even among the three senior martial uncles sitting at this dinner table, none of them could compare to Ji Boying.

"I would like to offer a toast to Senior Brother Ji. Senior Brothers killed that Traveling Alone for Ten Thousand Miles Tian Boguang, which truly showed the face of our righteous path, ridding the world of a scourge and upholding justice. We, the Mount Tai Disciples, dare to offer a toast to Senior Brother on behalf of the innocent people suffering in the world. Please do not refuse."

Chi Baicheng stood up, raised his wine glass, and bowed to Ji Boying.

"Senior Brother Jingji, your act of killing Tian Boguang and ridding the people of a scourge is a chivalrous deed that we deeply admire!"

Dozens, even hundreds, of the Mount Tai Sect disciples upstairs and downstairs all stood up at once.

Each of them was a skilled martial artist, full of energy, and they all toasted Ji Boying in unison.

He even cleverly recounted the whole story.

Who among the martial arts figures upstairs and downstairs wasn't shocked?

The sound, like a mountain roar and a tsunami, reached Return Goose Inn, and everyone within a hundred meters was astonished.
