While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

Mount Hua extended invitations to its followers, forming the "Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects" alliance to engage in a decisive battle with the Sun Moon Sect at Mount Hua.

The final result was that the five factions suffered heavy losses, while the Sun Moon Sect also lost ten elders, a lose-lose situation for both sides.

From that moment on, the two sides forged an irreconcilable and deep-seated hatred.

However, most of the first incomplete copy of the Sunflower Manual from Mount Hua was stolen.

[After reading it once, Ren Woxing, the leader of the Sun Moon Cult at the time, disdained to cultivate it and gave it to the ambitious Dongfang Bubai, intending to trick him.]

[Dongfang Bubai indeed couldn't resist the temptation, castrated himself to cultivate, and then became the "Number One Martial Arts Master in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer"]

Of course, this "first" is not absolute, because at that time, there was also a Feng Qingyang hiding in Mount Hua.

At that time, Feng Qingyang had been practicing the "Nine Swords of Dugu" for decades, and he never used his full strength in the book, nor did he ever directly confront Dongfang Bubai, so it is questionable who was stronger.

"Even Feng Qingyang, who has cultivated the 'Nine Swords of Dugu' for decades, might not be able to defeat Dongfang Bubai? And Dongfang Bubai's 'Sunflower Manual' is incomplete twice..."

At this moment, the women gained a deeper understanding of the power of this evil technique.

199 Random Character Comprehension Copy Cards, Shi Hongying's wish came true.

Yuzhou, Luoyang.

Inside Green Bamboo Lane, Ren Yingying frowned, her face showing shock and confusion.

"Dongfang Bubai castrated himself to practice the Sunflower Manual?!"

Looking back on many details from the past, it really does seem strange and something is wrong.

Before Dongfang Bubai imprisoned Ren Woxing and usurped the position of leader of the cult, he married several wives and concubines, but these wives and concubines all died unexpectedly later.

Dongfang Bubai did not remarry.

In recent years, Dongfang Bubai has favored a burly man with a bushy beard named Yang Lianting, and has even entrusted him with many important powers within the sect.

Ren Yingying had been completely baffled by this, but now she finally understood.

However, at the same time, new problems have emerged.

In the story, the Sun Moon Cult is the main villain. Even with the Five Mountains Sword Sects united and having the advantage of terrain, they could only fight the Sun Moon Cult to a standstill.

It was precisely because of their overwhelming strength that the Sun Moon Cult was able to seize the "Sunflower Manual".

In reality, the Huashan Sect alone could easily defeat the Sun Moon Cult, so why would it dare to rob Huashan?

Moreover, it's highly likely that Mount Hua doesn't even have the "Sunflower Manual".

Stealing the secret manual from the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository? (360)

Even celestial beings wouldn't dare to entertain such a delusional thought!

If Dongfang Bubai did indeed cultivate the Sunflower Manual, then where did he obtain it from?

……

Huashan, Ning Zhongze was also pondering another question—

The existence of the "Sunflower Manual" on Mount Hua is a secret. Who revealed it to the Sun Moon Cult?

Yue Su? Cai Zifeng?

These two were originally from Mount Hua, and based on the current information, they have absolutely no reason or motive to destroy their own sect.

That leaves two suspects: Lin Yuantu and the Shaolin Temple.

Ning Zhongze wasn't sure which one it was, but he could roughly guess the other party's motive.

It's very simple, just work backwards from the result!

The conflict between the Sun Moon Sect and the Five Mountains Sword Sect resulted in mutual destruction and a deep-seated, irreconcilable hatred between them.

Clearly, the leaker wanted to suppress all factions in order to benefit himself.

"Shaolin Temple...the Sutra Repository is such an important place, how can it be entered and exited by just anyone?"

If it were the real Shaolin Temple, Ning Zhongze certainly wouldn't think it would resort to such petty tricks.

But you should know that the title of "Number One Master in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" belongs to either Dongfang Bubai or Feng Qingyang, and it certainly doesn't belong to the Shaolin monks.

This shows that the Shaolin Temple depicted in the novel is far less impressive than it appears in reality.

Without absolute strength, it's not impossible to use some tricks to maintain a balance of power.

……

Ning Zhongze wasn't the only one who thought of this; many others did as well.

However, after the incidents involving Wuhua and Xuanci, Shaolin Temple was not seen as a "glorious and righteous" place in their eyes at all.

Without expectations, there is no such thing as disappointment.

Therefore, they were able to remain calm and wait.

In the novel *The Smiling, Proud Wanderer*, Shaolin Temple possessed the complete *Sunflower Manual*. What about in reality?

It's not impossible that the Shaolin Temple... or some ambitious individual within it, secretly possessed the "Sunflower Manual" and then cultivated a group of masters to work for them.

Whether it is true or not, there must exist an organization in this world where a large number of assassins castrate themselves to practice martial arts.

This is really interesting; I can't wait for the day the secret is revealed.

"An organization that exclusively practices the Sunflower Manual..."

Many people felt a chill run down their spines.

However, they then remembered the "Kunji Seal," and their hearts instantly settled down.

[Jiang Sishui has completed today's diary entry. Congratulations on gaining one month's worth of True Qi!]

[We are currently drawing today's winners...]

Congratulations to Shi Hongying for obtaining a "Random Character Comprehension Copy Card"

"Finally it's my turn!"

Inside the room, Shi Hongying beamed with joy and was filled with excitement.

She had been at Mantuo Manor for some time now, but the diary (chdh) seemed to be playing a joke on her. Even though Jiang Sishui mentioned it from time to time, the daily rewards always seemed to precisely avoid her.

Watching the winners change one after another, Shi Hongying felt a pang of sadness and an indescribable sense of grievance.

As for her initial composure, she had long since forgotten about it!

Fortunately, the reward arrived late, so I finally felt like I had some sense of existence.

"Random Character Comprehension Copy Card?"

As she fiddled with the white card in her hand, Shi Hongying silently prayed.

The name itself tells you what the reward is, and its value depends entirely on who it randomly falls into.

"God bless you! God bless you!"

Shi Hongying muttered a few words, and then used the card according to the method given by the system.

The next moment, the image of a noble young man appeared on the front of the card.

“This is…” Shi Hongying’s eyes widened.

Although she had never met the other person, according to the information from the card, this person was none other than Duan Yu of Dali, one of the main characters of Tianlong mentioned by Jiang Sishui!

That martial arts prodigy with a photographic memory and the ability to learn anything at a glance!

"It's actually him!"

Surprised, a surge of intense excitement welled up inside me.

You should know that this is an incredibly overpowered person who sits on the throne of a "celestial being" and aspires to be a "demigod"!

The next moment, the card began to disintegrate, turning into a beam of white light that entered Shi Hongying's brow.

In an instant, Shi Hongying felt her mind clear and experienced an indescribable sense of comfort.

If I had to give a reason, it would be that I feel smarter.

"Great! I'm a martial arts prodigy now!"

Shi Hongying was so excited that she couldn't sleep at all. She went straight to the courtyard and began practicing several martial arts techniques that she hadn't yet perfected.

……

Jiang Sishui was also busy.

As usual, after making his rounds, he went straight to Li Qingluo's room.

He couldn't forget the generosity of "Sister You Rong" yesterday, and it left him with endless aftertaste.

An hour later, as dawn broke, Jiang Sishui went to Wang Yuyan's boudoir, embraced the young girl, and fell asleep contentedly.

……

In the following days, Jiang Sishui continued his usual routine, traveling during the day and comforting the women's empty hearts at night.

Until that one time, he brought Azhu and Abi to Li Qingluo's room.

The astonishment on the faces of Li Qingluo and Youcao was indescribable.

Li Qingluo never expected that the two lowly maids she had always looked down upon would one day become her comrades-in-arms.
