Yue Buqun: My Mount Hua has been time-traveled.

Three days later!

Mount Song, Shaolin Temple!

Mahavira Hall.

Master Fangzheng, with a hint of admiration on his face, exclaimed, "Amitabha! I never imagined that the new leader of the Huashan Sect would be so astute. Leader Bai has finally met his match."

Fang Sheng, standing to the side, disagreed, suggesting, "This is a matter of power struggle within the Five Mountains Sword Sects. Why should we trouble you, Senior Brother, to come in person? Why don't I go instead?"

Fang Zheng shook his head. "In the past, of course, it would have been fine, but now that Mount Hua has just suffered a calamity, and he has sincerely invited me, as the abbot of Shaolin, if I do not go in person, wouldn't I be ridiculed by the people of the martial world? Although I am a person outside the secular world, the reputation of Shaolin must not be tarnished by my hand. I must go in person this time!"

He paused, a hint of anticipation appearing on his lips, and said with a smile, "And I'm also very curious, this newly appointed Sect Leader Yue has gained the upper hand with this move, I wonder how Sect Leader Bai will respond?"

"This Sect Leader Yue has actually been so patient? What a decisive move!"

"Wudang Mountain," an elderly man with white hair and beard sighed sincerely.

"Has the once mighty Huashan Sect, the foremost of the Five Sacred Mountains, now resigned itself to following in the footsteps of its former underlings? The Huashan Sect has truly fallen into decline."

A burly man dressed in tattered beggar's clothes wore a contemptuous expression.

…………

Mount Song, Guansheng Peak.

After Fei Bin's return.

With a resentful expression, he reported his experiences on Mount Hua to his master, Bai Yufeng, the current head of the Songshan Sect.

Finally, he added one more sentence.

He said disdainfully, "This Yue Buqun is truly shameless. The Huashan Sect has already fallen to this state and is no longer worthy of its position. It should have abdicated long ago, but he insists on making it known throughout the martial arts world. He probably just wants to give my Songshan Sect a reputation for cannibalism and childlessness!"

"Hmm, very good. It's quite impressive that you can see that. At the very least, you're much better than a mere brute."

The current leader of the Songshan Sect is named Bai Yufeng, and he has served as the leader of the Songshan Sect for more than forty years.

Over the past forty years, the once scattered Songshan Sect has gradually come together under his leadership, and has now become the second largest sect among the Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects, second only to the Huashan Sect.

He was naturally unwilling to let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Bai Yufeng looked at a robust man in his thirties sitting below him and asked, "Leng Chan, it seems this new leader of the Huashan Sect is quite capable. Tell me, if you were me, what would you do?"

Hearing his master test him.

Zuo Lengchan pondered for a moment and said, "This disciple does not know what Master will do, but this disciple knows what Junior Brother Fei would do."

Tell me about it.

Zuo Lengchan said solemnly, "Yue Buqun's actions are a blatant scheme. As long as we have the Five Mountains Command Flag, we will inevitably be at a disadvantage. To break this deadlock, we must break the rules!"

Bai Yufeng asked, "How do we break the rules?"

Zuo Lengchan coldly said, "The internal strife at Mount Hua led to the complete destruction of the sect's heritage, with no survivors. The Five Mountains Flag was also lost to the martial world. The Five Mountains Sword Sect issued a bounty to the entire martial world, offering the title of Alliance Leader to whoever could obtain the Five Mountains Flag. Several months later, the Songshan Sect killed several martial arts masters in the underworld and retrieved the flag, thus becoming the Alliance Leader of the Five Mountains!"

Upon hearing this, Fei Bin slapped his thigh, exclaiming in annoyance, "How could I forget..."

"That's just a difference in temperament!"

Bai Yufeng's tone was one of satisfaction, clearly indicating his strong agreement with Zuo Lengchan's plan.

He said, "Leng Chan, you are meticulous in your actions. With your martial arts skills, killing Yue Buqun would not be difficult. However, Fei Bin is always flamboyant. Along the hundreds of miles from Songshan to Huashan, countless people probably already know that the disciples of Songshan Sect have gone to Huashan. If Yue Buqun dies now, our Songshan Sect will be unable to extricate itself from the consequences."

Fei Bin said with remorse, "This disciple is ashamed."

"It's alright... There's a difference in strength between you and your senior brother. Leng Chan has already mastered my Songshan Sword Technique to a high level, and is no less skilled than me. Your strength is far inferior to your senior brother's. Even if you were to make a move, you might end up losing more than you gain, which would only damage the reputation of my Songshan Sect!"

Bai Yufeng laughed and said, "However, Leng Chan, you only said what you would do if you were your junior brother, but you didn't say what I would do. Do you know what I plan to do?"

Zuo Lengchan thought for a moment and said firmly, "When faced with two evils, choose the lesser. A bad reputation can be remedied afterward, but once the opportunity is missed, it may be difficult to regain it."

Bai Yufeng asked, "Isn't there a way to have the best of both worlds?"

"I am ashamed, I never thought of that."

"Actually, yes."

Bai Yufeng smiled and said, "It's very simple. Seizing the Five Mountains Flags was not the act of the Songshan disciples, but my own idea. Isn't Yue Buqun planning to tarnish the reputation of my Songshan Sect? But if after I seize the flags, I incur the wrath of the Songshan Sect due to my arrogance, and you, Leng Chan, force me to resign as the Songshan Sect Leader, then it will be perfectly legitimate for you to become the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, won't it?"

Zuo Lengchan's expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Master, do you intend to...?"

Bai Yufeng waved his hand and laughed, "I've spent my whole life being suppressed by that old fellow Ning Qingyu. Now that I'm old, Ning Qingyu is dead, leaving only a dilapidated Huashan. I've not only left you with many capable brothers, but I've also integrated the power of the Songshan Sect. With your strength and temperament, you will only go further than me in leading the Songshan Sect. From this point of view, I have finally defeated Ning Qingyu once. As the sect leader, I have no regrets."

"However, before I retire, there is one more thing I can do for you!"

A resolute glint flashed between Bai Yufeng's brows as he said, "This Yue Buqun is so young, yet his mind is so shrewd. If this boy doesn't die, he will surely become your great enemy in the future. Since I have to bear so much infamy, I might as well take on the crime of murdering my colleagues as well, and eliminate this great threat to you in the future."

"Thank you, Master!"

Zuo Lengchan's expression remained cold, but his eyes were filled with emotion.

He knew that his master was using the reputation he had accumulated throughout his life to clear the final obstacle for him and bestow upon him the position of leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance!

………………

For a very long time afterward.

Yue Buqun of the Huashan Sect has become a topic of conversation throughout the entire martial arts world.

Some people mocked the Huashan Sect for being weak and easily bullied.

Some people are deeply disgusted by the Songshan Sect's domineering behavior.

Some people also have a lot of respect and sympathy for Yue Buqun, the young sect leader who was able to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens and put the overall situation first in times of crisis.

Prestige in the martial arts world began to accumulate towards Mount Hua invisibly.

On this day.

Yue Buqun was carefully instructing Ning Zhongze in sword practice.

Suddenly, a emotionless, mechanical voice echoed in his mind.

Along with it, words appeared on the upper right corner of the eyelid, as if a task had been assigned.

[Host reputation detected to have reached activation standard! Mount Hua's fortune is gathering...]

The world is currently anchored.

[Countdown to Time Travel: 3 Days!]

Yue Buqun was startled, and then an indescribable joy welled up in his heart.

cross?

He truly is a protagonist destined for great fortune.

Not only have I traveled to this world, but I can even travel to other worlds?

In this way, the dilapidated Mount Hua and his own path to survival have finally arrived!

"Senior brother, what's wrong?"

Ning Zhongze was diligently practicing the Huashan Sword Technique, move by move.

She already had a foundation.

The mastery of these profound sword techniques, which are passed down through generations, is extremely fast.

In just a few days, although his skill level had not improved much, the exquisite and unpredictable nature of his swordsmanship had surpassed it by more than ten times.

Seeing Yue Buqun in a daze, as if he were in a daze, she called out to him several times in worry.

Yue Buqun suddenly came to his senses and shook his head, saying, "I'm fine. I just had a sudden epiphany. Um... Junior Sister, I might have to go into seclusion for a while."

"Do you have some understanding of these sword techniques?"

This time, Ning Zhongze didn't suspect anything. She said seriously, "It's okay, Senior Brother, you can go into seclusion if you want. I will bring you meals every day on time, and I will take good care of the Huashan Sect for you."

"Okay...so be it."

He already knew when he had timed his journey, but Yue Buqun was completely unaware of the rules that would follow once he entered another world.

Is it physical possession, or soul possession?

Are the times the same in both realms?

All of these require advance preparation.

That evening, after returning to his residence, Yue Buqun immediately wrote a letter.

The letter stated that he had had a sudden realization and needed to go to a secluded place to practice his swordsmanship. He would return within half a month, and his junior sister should not worry.

In this way, even if Ning Zhongze discovers that he is missing, she will not panic.

So, for the next few days, Yue Buqun stopped going out and spent his days practicing the Huashan Sword Technique and his nights studying the Zixia Divine Skill.

Perhaps this is a bonus that came with his arrival from another time;

Or perhaps it was the entanglement and fusion of two consciousnesses that made Yue Buqun's spirit far surpass that of ordinary people.

When he practiced the Purple Cloud Divine Skill, he felt none of the torment and suffering he had experienced in his predecessor. Instead, he felt a sense of ease and freedom, as if it were his own arm!

The progress has been rapid, far surpassing the previous level by many times.

This did improve his strength considerably compared to before.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

That evening.

Yue Buqun returned to his room early to wait.

Watching the time displayed on the system decrease until it gradually reaches zero.

He suddenly felt dizzy, as if he had lost control of his body...

Gradually, the dizziness dissipated, much like sobering up.

As consciousness gradually returned.

Yue Buqun's face lit up with surprise and delight, and he exclaimed, "I've transmigrated...?"

He looked around blankly at the familiar furnishings.

Familiar tables, chairs, and wardrobes.

And there was the huge banner hanging in the center of the main hall that depicted the control of swords by qi.

This is the Suoyoubuwei Pavilion, which was formerly the residence of Ning Qingyu, the former head of the Huashan Sect.

After Yue Buqun took over as the sect leader, he lived there.

But didn't he time travel?

Why are we still in the "Something I Shouldn't Do" pavilion?

Yue Buqun strode out of the door.

What I see before me is a place of steep mountains and quiet, secluded forests.

Orioles sing all around, and streams murmur.

Amidst the lush forest, several large houses with white walls and black tiles, some high and some low, blend perfectly into the mountainside.

This is the Huashan base!

At that moment, Ning Zhongze was carrying a tray and walking over here.

On the plate is a bowl of rice, a dish of stir-fried vegetables and tofu, a dish of stir-fried eggs with garlic chives, and a bowl of clear soup.

Despite the rugged mountain path, her steps were remarkably steady. Her movements were fluid and unwavering, demonstrating her exceptional lightness skill.

Noticing Yue Buqun emerge from the room, Ning Zhongze's bright eyes lit up, and she smiled, "Senior Brother, you've emerged from seclusion so quickly?"

Yue Buqun looked at his panel with a bit of confusion.

[Anchoring successful!]

Current Location: Huashan Sect (Status: On the Verge of Destruction)

Strange, where did I travel to?

Isn't this still within the Huashan Sect?

Could it be that this system is misaligned?

He was about to ask a question when his brow suddenly furrowed, and he shouted loudly, "Who dares to break into my Mount Hua at night!"

Ning Zhongze also heard the footsteps hidden in the wind at this moment.

Her expression was wary as she shouted, "Is it that wicked bandit from Mount Song who sneaked up the mountain? Hiding like this is a disgrace to the name of Mount Song! Get out here now!"
