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

It should be noted that the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng is the most profound sword technique of the Huashan Sect in the Ancient Dragon Realm. Its profoundness and mystery even surpass the three great sword techniques of the Xuanmen.

The three great sword techniques of Xuanmen are the most profound and treasured sword techniques of the Wudang, Kunlun and Bashan sects!

Therefore, in terms of skill level, the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng is absolutely a peerless sword technique on par with the Nine Swords of Dugu.

Not to mention that Yue Buqun is the head of the Huashan Sect, so it is perfectly justifiable for him to practice the supreme inheritance of the Huashan Sect.

Moreover, Yue Buqun also has a way to obtain the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng.

Yue Buqun was well-versed in the plot, so he naturally knew many secrets of the Huashan Sect that even Ku Mei might not know!

For example, when the Huashan Sect was at its peak, it suffered retaliation from Shi Guanyin.

Among them, the Seven Swordsmen of Mount Hua, who were the most skilled in martial arts, had four of them killed by Shi Guanyin!

Of the other three.

The withered plum tree remained on Mount Hua, preserving the last thread of the Huashan School's lineage.

Huangfu Gao, the leader of the Seven Swords of Mount Hua, was captured by Shi Guanyin because of his outstanding appearance and otherworldly handsomeness.

After failing to train and subdue him, they locked him up with a millstone and made him grind the millstone day and night without stopping!

After a year of torment, the most intense desert sun blinded Huangfu Gao.

He was also poisoned by Shi Guanyin, which deafened him, cut his vocal cords, and disfigured him, leaving him almost a living dead without any senses!

As for Liu Biefei, the youngest of the Seven Swords of Mount Hua at the time, he never returned to Mount Hua after narrowly escaping death.

Instead, he has been wandering the martial arts world for many years.

It was all in order to find his senior brother's whereabouts.

Yue Buqun knew that after Huangfu Gao's five senses were destroyed by Shi Guanyin, his skin sensitivity was greatly enhanced. He then used this special ability to escape from Shi Guanyin's den of evil and was eventually taken in by Ji Bingyan, Chu Liuxiang's good friend, and became Shi Tuo, a scout in the desert who was in charge of leading the way!

Who could have imagined that a seemingly useless person who just eats rice for free was actually the handsome and righteous swordsman Huangfu Gao?

Both Huangfu Gao and Liu Biefei were absolutely proficient in the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng.

If Yue Buqun could find any one of them, with his status as the head of the Huashan Sect, obtaining the Qingfeng Thirteen Styles would be a piece of cake.

However, there are obviously difficulties as well.

For example, Yue Buqun, as the leader of the Huashan Sect, probably already had the attention of Shi Guanyin after his encounter with Qu Wurong.

Yuan Suiyun once guaranteed that those who spoke of the Stone Guanyin would never cross the desert.

However, if Yue Buqun were to go to the desert on his own initiative, even Yuan Suiyun would probably cry out that he was a terrible teammate and couldn't be carried.

However, this is only the part of the story that Yue Buqun knows.

Huangfu Gao had always lived in the desert. He had lost his five senses, but he could barely survive because of his familiarity with the desert. However, if he left the desert, he probably wouldn't even be able to live independently.

Liu Biefei has lived in anonymity for many years, changing his name almost every time he goes to a new place.

Furthermore, since he rarely resorts to underhanded tactics, finding him is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack!

The only place where his true identity was ever exposed was also in the desert.

But that place is the base camp of the Stone Guanyin!

The risks are huge, but the rewards are equally astonishing.

Fortunately, this matter is not urgent. I will go back and discuss it in detail with my junior sister, and then try to find out the current timeline of the story.

If we could take advantage of the momentum of Chu Liuxiang, the protagonist of this world, that would be even better.

After drifting aimlessly at sea for several hours, Yue Buqun finally stepped ashore, having already begun to consider the future.

He used his internal energy to dry the dampness on his body.

Following the direction Hai Kuotian had indicated, Yue Buqun used his lightness skill and, sure enough, saw signs of human habitation half an hour later.

Upon further inquiry, I learned that I was actually in the coastal area of ​​Jiangnan.

There are still hundreds of miles to go to reach Mount Hua.

Yue Buqun sighed regretfully, "Why didn't I think of smuggling some gold from Bat Island?"

This person actually attended an auction, and even spent a fortune at one, almost forgetting just how empty their wallet was.

It should be noted that the brother and sister's combined wealth amounted to only a little over seventy taels of silver.

When going out, Ning Zhong worried that his senior brother would be short of money, and wished he could stuff all his money into Yue Buqun's pocket.

In the end, it was only through Yue Buqun's reasoned argument that he was allowed to take away only fifty-odd taels of silver!

This little money isn't even enough to buy a horse. I guess Yuan Suiyun never expected that the dignified leader of the Huashan Sect would be in such dire straits.

This time, even figuring out how to get back to the mountain is a problem.

You can't just jump around on the ground, can you?

"Huh? Wait a minute?"

Yue Buqun suddenly thought of something and murmured, "Perhaps, there is a way."

He used the Huashan Sect's exclusive Cloud-Treading Movement Technique to head towards a nearby town.

………………

Three days later.

Having weathered many storms!

Yue Buqun finally set foot on the territory of Luozhen again.

It was a completely unfamiliar small town.

Even though he had only passed through once, Yue Buqun's heart was filled with the joy of a wanderer returning home!

"As expected, I knew Yuan Suiyun was a thoughtful fellow. Now that he's brought me down from Mount Hua, how could he possibly not bring me up?"

Just as Yue Buqun had predicted, although there were some setbacks at sea, Yuan Suiyun had indeed made arrangements for the evacuation and pick-up.

Although it arrived a few days early.

But after Yue Buqun verified his identity, they eagerly brought out the carriage that Yue Buqun had ridden in when he arrived.

After Yue Buqun made it clear that he wanted to return to Mount Hua as soon as possible, they presented him with a fine horse and a token engraved with the character "争" (zheng, meaning to contend).

This token indicates that the holder can change horses at any post station.

Thus, after traveling without sleep, Yue Buqun completed the journey he had come from in just three days.

He handed over the horse, along with the token, to the post station.

Only then did Yue Buqun begin his journey back to the Huashan Sect.

then……

Inside the Hall of Righteousness.

When Yue Buqun was reunited with his junior sister whom he hadn't seen for over a month, he was completely stunned.

They stared in shock at the delicate, shy-looking girl who was now respectfully bowing to Yue Buqun with her sword in hand.

She exclaimed in surprise, "Junior Sister... are you saying that these are the disciples you secretly recruited for the Huashan Sect while I was away?"

When Ning Zhongze saw her senior brother, she was overjoyed and beamed with happiness.

Even her smile was much brighter than usual.

Upon hearing Yue Buqun's words, she immediately frowned in displeasure.

He retorted, "What are you saying, Senior Brother? Right now, the Huashan Sect only has the two of us. Sooner or later, we'll have to expand and recruit disciples. It's true that I didn't accept Zhenzhen as a disciple without your permission, but Zhenzhen's talent is exceptional, surpassing even mine. She's only been practicing swordsmanship for a few days, yet she's already mastered our Huashan Sect's sword techniques to perfection. I'm already planning to teach her the Jade Maiden Nineteen Swords!"

As he spoke, he turned and took Hua Zhenzhen's hand again, saying, "Zhenzhen, don't mind what your senior brother said. He's just overjoyed. With such a talented disciple like you, he must be incredibly happy right now."

Disciple?

Yue Buqun's eyebrows twitched, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be horrified or delighted.

While he was struggling to find a way to acquire the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng, Ning Zhongze recruited Hua Zhenzhen, the most orthodox successor of the Huashan Sect, who was not only proficient in the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng but also had mastered the long-lost Heart-Piercing Hand technique of Huashan.

But why didn't she travel through time with Ku Mei?
