C26 (1/2)
Dawn had begun to shine in the eastern sky, and the night did not feel so long after dawn.
A chaotic battle was about to break out.
Li Zhixiang's thoughts were extremely quick, and he could tell that if he were to fight with Ye Mo Han and Liang Rufeng, they would only end up dead. For today's matter, he was afraid that there would be a third party who would try to take advantage of the situation, so he quickly stopped them, ”You two, if Ye Mo Han really did not kill my senior, then please come with us to Hua Shan to meet with our martial uncle. The truth will be revealed.”
Ye Jianhan's impression of Li Zhixiang was not bad. Hearing him mention his martial uncle, he guessed that it must be Lu Mingzhu. There was still some time before the two month period. It was possible that he was at Mount Hua, so would he bring Liu Yiyi along with him? However, if they went to Mount Hua, it would be almost impossible to kill Lu Mingjie and save Liu Yiyi. If he were to expose the matter regarding Lu Mingjie, he would definitely be scolded and slandered. Ye Mo Han thought for a moment and said, ”Are you referring to Grand Elder Lu Mingjie? It's just that I promised to meet him at Jade Spring Academy in a few days' time. If we were to recklessly climb the mountain now, it might not be appropriate. ”
Zhang Qingwu reprimanded, ”What nonsense are you spouting? When did my senior and granduncle make an agreement with you? ”
Hearing Zhang Qingwu say this, Ye Mo Han relaxed. Lu Mingjie really did not tell anyone that he had fought with him. This way, Ye Mo Han was even more certain that Liu Yi Yi was not in Mount Hua, and since Zhang Qingwu came down here today, Lu Mingjie probably didn't know. So how did Zhang Qing Wu know that Ye Yi Han and Liang Rufeng had come here? Who in the Hua Shan Sect was related to the Black Cloaked Sect?
Ye Mo Han looked around at the crowd and said, ”Do you know that it's not important? After the agreement between your martial granduncle and I is over, I'll go to Mount Hua myself. There's no need for you to gather so many people to invite me.”
”I promise that after he arrives, he will definitely go to Mount Hua. Even if he doesn't want to, I will force him to go.” At this moment, the words of Liangrou still carried a lot of weight. At the very least, Chu Li and Li Zhixiang believed what he said very much.
Zhang Qingwu let out a sneer as if mocking Ye Mo Han and his arrogant and conceited attitude. Chu Li and Li Zhixiang exchanged glances. Both of them had the same thoughts, and neither of them wanted to see the Hua Shan disciples fight with Ye Mo Han and Liang Ruo. With Ye Mo Han and An Ran's kung fu skills, even if the Mountain Flower Sword Formation could defeat two people, it would still deal more than twenty casualties.
Li Zhixiang walked up to Zhang Qingwu and whispered in his ear. Zhang Qingwu frowned but didn't say anything. Li Zhixiang softly urged, ”I believe he'll be able to handle this matter well. We'll just wait and see.”
”I will let you live for a few more days.” ”” Zhang Qingwu gritted his teeth and said after a long while. Young Master Liang, today, you boasted in front of so many people that you wanted to ensure that Ye Mo would come to Hua Mountain. If he doesn't come to Hua Mountain after all of this is over, then you can come and kill him on his behalf, what do you say? ”
Zhang Qingwu obviously didn't believe that Ye Wen Han had an appointment with Lu Mingjie, but she could see that Li Zhi Xiang and Chu Li were unwilling to kill Ye Mo Han at this time. She spoke to Liang Rufeng in such a manner that even though she lost her demeanor as the Sect Leader, she also made an emotional cover up for her concession.
Liang Rufeng did not mind Zhang Qingwu's words at all: ”Okay, if Ye Wen is not cold enough, I will kill him on his behalf.”
Zhang Qingwu glared at the two and led the group away. Chu Li and Li Zhixiang stayed at the back. Li Zhixiang watched Zhang Qingwu walk far away before he finally said a few words to Ye Mo Han. He said in a kind tone, ”Mo Han, if you really didn't kill Martial Uncle Yiming, then I will wash your innocence even if I had to risk my life with Martial Uncle Chu.”
After Li Zhixiang said this, Chu Li nodded towards Ye Qinghan. He didn't say anything more and rode with Li Zhixiang to follow Zhang Qingwu. Ye Chanhan had expected Chu Li and Li Zhixiang would treat him like this, and it must be because of his mother, but in the end, these two people had listened to Lu Jie's words. Ye Chanhan clearly understood that almost all the people in the Jianghu Sect paid attention to their personal qualifications. With Lu Mingjie's qualifications in the Hua Shan Sect, even the newly appointed Sect Leader Zhang Qingwu had no choice but to treat him courteously. In this way, Zhang Qingwu was just a famous Sect Leader who had no right to be carried away by Lu Mingjie. However, Ye Qingwu had a faint feeling that Zhang Qingwu wasn't the type of person who would be willing to lower himself to others.
Yuquan Courtyard was a place to visit Mount Hua, named by the ninth female princess of the Tang Rui Sect, the Golden Immortal. Jade Spring Academy was built against the mountain, with a neat layout, blending well with the scenery on the mountain and below. In the courtyard, the huge stone Pan Tuo, the water carried back, the old tree bed, the shade can cover the sun. Amongst them, there was even a long corridor turning back, decorated with paintings of pillars, pavilions and pavilions looking at each other. Jade Spring Academy used to be the territory of the True Faction, but with the rise of the Hua Shan Faction, this place had also become a vassal point of the Hua Shan Faction. Now, there were only three old and weak Taoists left. They cleaned the courtyard here, or entertained the disciples of the Hua Shan Sect walking up and down the mountain. Jade Spring Academy had become the Hua Shan Sect's encampment. However, after being taken over by the Hua Shan Sect, the Jade Spring Academy seemed to have fallen into ruin.
The one who opened the door for Ye Wen was an old Daoist with cloudy eyes and a face full of chicken skin. After the two of them explained their meeting with Lu Mingjie, the old Daoist tremblingly led them to the Worryfree Pavilion at the northwest corner of Jade Spring Academy. The place was rather high and had a wide field of vision. It was an excellent place to enjoy the beautiful scenery. From his attitude towards Ye Mo Han and Liang Zhen Feng, it could be seen how respectful the old Daoist Priest of Jade Spring Academy was towards the people of Hua Shan Sect.
The other two Taoists from Jade Spring Academy, upon hearing that it was a guest of Lu Mingjie's, also hurried over to greet Ye Mo Han and Liang Rufeng. The two people were also elderly. Their daoist-robes were filthy, as if it had been a long time since they last had a meal. Both of them looked weak and dispirited. The three of them actually knew what happened last night. The three of them spoke and gestured as if they saw it with their own eyes. The three of them said that a group of assassins had barged into the town and wasted their lives. It was fortunate that the new Sect Leader Zhang Qingwu and a few of his disciples had killed all those assassins, or else who knows how many families would have been destroyed. Obviously, the three of them did not know that the two in front of them were the ones who were involved in the fierce battle last night, otherwise, they would have been laughed to death by him. Ye Mo Han could not help but smile as he looked at the three of them, but when he thought about the innocent people who had died so tragically last night, he felt a deep hatred for Xie Feipeng and his faction, the Black Cloth Sect.
