Yue Buqun took a few steps back, and the Mount Hua group followed suit. After retreating five or six steps, they clasped their hands in greeting to Dingxian: "Greetings Abbess Dingxian!"
His actions, though strange, weren't anything seriously wrong with him.
In Dingxian's eyes, this was Yue Buqun's behavior as a gentleman who knew proper etiquette, and she was quite satisfied.
" Sect Leader Yue truly deserves the title of 'Gentleman Sword.' His actions and thoughts should serve as a model for Five Mountains Sword Sects. If the Five Mountains Sword Sects were to merge, I would be the first to support Sect Leader Yue as the alliance leader."
" Abbess Dingxian, absolutely not! I know my qualifications are too shallow; I am not fit for such a heavy responsibility."
Yue Buqun's face remained Changes, maintaining a sanctimonious appearance, but in his heart he wished he could sew up Abbess Dingxian's mouth.
He may have this ambition, but can he say it directly? Wouldn't that make him a target of public criticism?
She wanted to say something, but Dingxian had already shifted her focus to Ling Yi and Wang Yuyan, who had turned and left.
"You fiend, stop right there!"
Yue Buqun pursed his lips and took a few steps back again, so as not to get splattered with blood when Ling Yi went berserk later.
Ling Yi glanced back at Dingxian, then at the group of nuns, young and old, standing behind Dingxian, all eyeing her menacingly.
It inexplicably felt quite funny.
He wanted to see what Dingxian would do next!
So he turned around, said nothing, and just quietly looked at Dingxian.
"You may leave, but you must leave Miss Wang behind!"
Ling Yi remained silent, but Wang Yuyan said, "Master, I think you've misunderstood!"
"Young Master Ling has never done anything to me, nor has he ever restricted my freedom. On the contrary, it is I who need to trouble Young Master Ling with something."
"Thank you, Sister Yilin and Abbess, for causing you all worry."
"Miss Wang, I know you are being coerced by this demon. Rest assured, I will not let him take you away today, no matter what."
Wang Yuyan's mouth opened slightly, and she froze, momentarily speechless.
"Master, Sister Yilin, you've really misunderstood!" Wang Yuyan could only explain again.
But Dingxian didn't believe it at all, and was convinced that Wang Yuyan had been coerced.
"You fiend, release Miss Wang immediately, or my Five Mountains Sword Sects will never let you go!" Dingxian pointed at Ling Yi and shouted angrily.
Yue Buqun, watching from a distance, curled his lip. "Troublesome," he thought, "Can you please stop bringing up the Five Mountains Sword Sects all the time?"
Dingxian didn't know how powerful Ling Yi was; he had only heard rumors, which was why he was ignorant and fearless. But he had personally witnessed Ling Yi lose his temper.
The large pit in front of the Fuwei Escort Agency hasn't been filled in yet.
Originally, Yue Buqun came to attend Liu Zhengfeng's "Golden Basin Washing Hands" ceremony with the intention of taking the opportunity to bring up the issue of merging the Five Mountains Sword Sects again.
Zuo Lengchan's martial arts were crippled by Guihai Yidao of the Dragon Guarding Manor, and he was taken away.
Without Zuo Lengchan, the Mount Song Sect is just a scattered mess.
This was the perfect opportunity for Yue Buqun to plot against the Five Mountains Sword Sects.
But now, Yue Buqun's desire to become the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects Alliance has suddenly diminished considerably.
Once he becomes the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, he'll probably be the first one pushed to deal with Ling Yi, right?
Ling Yi, is that someone he, with Innate, can handle?
Forget about Innate, even Grandmaster would be helpless against it.
Yue Buqun suddenly realized that the Five Mountains Sword Sects Alliance was a huge trap!
" Dingxian? Let me ask you a question. Who told you I'm the Demon Lord's?" Ling Yi asked slowly.
"Did you run the Good and Evil House?"
Ling Yi nodded.
"Is the Good and Evil House using living people to refine elixirs?"
"You saw it with your own eyes?" Ling Yi asked.
"Everyone in the Jianghu world is talking about it, how could it be false?"
Ling Yi was defeated by Dingxian's serious expression.
"Oh, so the story about Abbess Dingxian and Fangzheng of Shaolin Temple having a secret rendezvous at night is also true?"
Upon hearing this, Abbess Dingxian's face flushed red, and she pointed at Ling Yi, saying, "You're talking nonsense! Don't you dare insult my reputation!"
"What do you mean by 'insulting your innocence'? I saw it with my own eyes! You were having a secret rendezvous with the Shaolin Temple at the foot of Mount Song, calling him 'brother' and 'sister'! Tsk tsk!"
"You, you're talking nonsense!"
"Yes, I was just talking nonsense. Starting tomorrow, I'll find a hundred or so storytellers to Abbess Dingxian and Fangzheng of Shaolin into a tale and spread it throughout the entire Jianghu."
"When people parrot what others say, falsehoods can become truths. At that time, you, Dingxian, will be lifted up by the world, and the Mount Heng Sect will be implicated and condemned by everyone."
Dingxian swayed twice, her face turned pale, and she felt dizzy and almost fell.
"Our Good and Evil House is dedicated to eliminating evil in the Jianghu. We only kill those who deserve to die. Go and inquire for yourself whether any of the Good and Evil House we have taken in have been wrongly accused."
"And the so-called alchemy using humans is even more laughable."
"Those who have been taken in by my Good and Evil House, apart from the most heinous villains, are all still alive."
" The Good and Evil House is only giving them a minor punishment as a warning; at most, some will be released within Half Moon."
"You're so old, how can you still be so Tianzhen? Why would I become a demon? Can't you understand the key point?"
" The Good and Evil House only wants to create a peaceful and friendly Jianghu, not the one that is now, where bloodshed erupts over a knife, a sword, a martial arts technique, or even a few taels of silver!"
At this point, Ling Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The world laughs at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at them for not seeing through things. Perhaps, I am the most Tianzhen person."
" Yuyan, let's go!"
"Yes, young master!"
After watching Ling Yi and Wang Yuyan leave, the people around them remained silent for a long time.
At this moment, Yue Buqun's eyes flickered with uncertainty. He admired Ling Yi's wisdom and took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. He glanced in the direction Ling Yi had left.
After glancing at everyone, he slowly said, "As far as I know, those admitted to the Good and Evil House are indeed all evil, and the Good and Evil House never admits those who are innocent."
Everyone looked at him, including Dingxian.
Do you know why Yu Canghai died?
Dingxian asked, "Wasn't Yu Canghai killed by the Good and Evil House?"
"That's not the case. Yu Canghai simply grabbed some ordinary people, intending to swindle some Cultivation Pill from the Good and Evil House. However, Jiang Yuyan saw through his scheme and killed him."
Before anyone could react, Yue Buqun continued, "It is said that the Heaven-Changing Great Method practiced by Young Master Ling and Jiang Yuyan is not only powerful and wondrous, but also allows them to discern a person's good and evil."
"Perhaps, it was because Young Master Ling had witnessed so much good and evil that he created the Good and Evil House!"
"Of course, you shouldn't just listen to my words to know the specifics. If you want to know the truth, you can verify it for yourselves."
After saying this, Yue Buqun led the Huashan Sect members away.
In the crowd, a plain-looking old man dressed in a gray linen robe stroked his beard and muttered, "Quite the silver tongue, interesting, very interesting!"
Then, the Ying Yi.
The crowd quickly dispersed, but the news of today's events also spread rapidly throughout the Jianghu.
Late at night, inside the Great Prison Space.
It was night outside, but inside the Prison Space, there was no distinction between day and night.
Compared to two months ago, the Prison Space is much more lively and vibrant.
Ling Yi was in a manor, surrounded by rows of lush bamboo groves.
Not far ahead, there is a shimmering lake.
The lake is surrounded by meadow flowers.
Looking further into the distance, there is a vast expanse of newly reclaimed farmland, where thousands of people are working.
Behind the farmland lies a forest, from which the occasional roar of Tiger Roar and howl of Wolf Howl can be heard.
This mountain forest is one of the three peaks of Fallen Phoenix Mountain.
As for the other two peaks, they had long been dug up by the prisoners and laid flat on the ground of the Prison Space.
Now it has been transformed into this vibrant land.
Inside the manor, Jiang Yuyan was reporting on the achievements of the past period.
"Young Master, the Brocade Guard, the Eastern Depot, and the Western Depot have joined forces. Although they dare not attack the Good and Evil House, they have blocked the Jianghu practitioners heading to Fuzhou."
"For seven consecutive days, the Good and Evil House has yielded absolutely nothing."
Jiang Yuyan's face was somewhat gloomy.
The actions of the Great Ming Dynasty court are tantamount to cutting off the business of the Good and Evil House and Jiang Yuyan's path to becoming stronger; they deserve to be killed.
"What do you want to do?" Ling Yi asked, looking at Jiang Yuyan, whose bangs were trembling with anger.
"Kill them all! Let's see who dares to stop us!"
Yes, that's very Jiang Yuyan.
Go to Mount Heng City!
"Young Master? What are you going to Mount Heng City for?" Jiang Yuyan asked, puzzled.
"Going to Mount Heng City, of course we'll open another Good and Evil House. We can leave Hei Zun to look after Fuzhou City!"
Jiang Yuyan's eyes lit up, and she immediately understood Ling Yi's meaning.
"Young Master's method is better. Let's wait until the Good and Evil House is fully operational and see how many they can hold onto."
Looking at Ling Yi with her beautiful crescent-shaped eyes, Jiang Yuyan was undeniably stunning.
If we're just talking about looks, Ling Yi thinks she's much better looking than the other female leads and supporting actresses in the original drama.
"Go back and inform Hei Zun first, and I'll take you to Mount Heng City later."
"Yes, young master!" Jiang Yuyan nodded and left the Prison Space directly.
Ling Yi shook his head. He couldn't believe he actually had feelings for Jiang Yuyan...
Could it be because of seeing Tian Boguang's Memory Orb?
Speaking of Tian Boguang's Memory Orb, wow, most of it is Masai, which is quite stimulating.
Ling Yi also learned why Tian Boguang didn't harm Yilin and Wang Yuyan.
Tian Boguang fell in love with Yilin.
He wanted to make a better impression on Yilin, and also had the intention of finding true love and turning over a new leaf.
Therefore, they didn't harm Wang Yuyan either.
As for why they ran for ten days to reach Mount Heng City...
This matter is also related to the Evil House.
According to the new rules of the Evil House, only those who commit the most heinous crimes can exchange for Cultivation Pill.
Tian Boguang, a notorious womanizer, was being targeted by someone during those days.
Moreover, he was a master at the Innate Realm.
However, this man was no good either; he was also a notorious thief.
Left with no other option, Tian Boguang had to risk entering Mount Heng City to hide and get through this ordeal first.
Now that all the prestigious and righteous sects in Mount Heng City have gathered here, those notorious bandits would definitely not dare to enter.
Unfortunately, they encountered Ling Yi as soon as they entered Mount Heng City.
However, none of that matters, since Tian Boguang is gone anyway.
Soon, Jiang Yuyan returned to the Prison Space. Ling Yi didn't waste any words and took Jiang Yuyan directly to Mount Heng City.
He then left the rest to his own devices.
Jiang Yuyan's efficiency was higher than Ling Yi had imagined.
That very night, they occupied the Hundred Flowers House in Mount Heng City, and renamed it Hundred Flowers House Good and Evil House.
The next day at noon, when Ling Yi was having lunch with Wang Yuyan, a beautiful figure in blue sat down directly opposite Ling Yi.
[ Dongfang Bai: Good Value 25/ Evil Value 3182, Good and Evil Value -3157, Cultivation: Master Ninth Stage!]
"Young Master Ling, your men have occupied my Hundred Flowers House several times. Isn't that going a bit too far?" Dongfang Bai asked with dissatisfaction.
