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

"Master, please accept my bow. Master, please have some tea."

Despite her various forms of resistance and resentment, and unable to find a reasonable reason to refuse, Jin Lingzhi finally had no choice but to kneel down before Yue Buqun.

Become an apprentice, offer tea!

The little girl had her own little thoughts.

Anyway, we're just master and disciple. At worst, once my martial arts surpass his, I can expel him from the school and disown him as my master.

What's with this "one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father" nonsense? Even if you want to be my dad, my mom has to agree first.

After figuring this out, Jin Lingzhi suddenly felt full of fighting spirit, and her impulse to practice martial arts had reached its peak.

Yue Buqun was overjoyed.

His eyes were full of kindness as he looked at Jin Lingzhi, and he lovingly helped her up.

He laughed and said, "Get up quickly. After becoming a disciple, we are all family. There's no need to be so polite in the future. Our Huashan Sect doesn't have so many seniority rules. As long as your martial arts level reaches a certain point, your master will naturally raise your seniority. At that time, I guarantee you an elder position."

He couldn't help but be overjoyed.

It's important to know that a fee is required to become an apprentice.

Ning Zhongze was desperate at the time, and in order to recruit disciples, she said, "If you're willing to become my disciple, I'll give you money, not just tuition fees."

But Abbess Kuyin was naturally very familiar with the rules.

One hundred taels of gold were offered as a tuition fee, and it was made clear that this was only the beginning; once Lingzhi made progress on Mount Hua, Wanfu Wanshou Garden would present him with even greater gifts.

This immediately solved the Huashan Sect's urgent problem of insufficient funds!

But what surprised Yue Buqun even more was...

[Dimensional overlap: 10%!]

The overlap has increased again.

This aligns perfectly with Yue Buqun's earlier deduction.

It seems that his outstanding performance in front of Abbess Kuyin must have made her look at the Huashan Sect with new respect.

Moreover, since the identity of the Emei Sect Leader is naturally more well-known than that of the Young Master of Wuzheng Manor, the overlap between the two identities is much greater.

Yes, it solved the problem, made money, and gained overlap.

Three birds with one stone.

No, we can win a fourth time.

After becoming an apprentice, Yue Buqun arranged for Ning Zhongze to show him around the Huashan Sect.

He personally escorted Abbess Kuyin down the mountain.

The two sect leaders walked side by side, moving slowly.

Along the way, Abbess Kuyin still sighed, "When Abbess Kumei succeeded as the head of the Huashan Sect, I accompanied her to Huashan. I never imagined that in just over ten years, the Huashan Sect would change so much."

"Yes, the Huashan Sect has gone through many hardships, and its current transformation shows that it has been reborn from the ashes."

Yue Buqun casually sighed, thinking to himself that this was only natural; this was his Mount Hua, not the Mount Hua of withered plum blossoms.

Ku Mei might still be in the Swordsman world with Zuo Lengchan...

No, he's outwitting and outmaneuvering Bai Yufeng, Zuo Lengchan's master.

"I have offended you greatly before, but now that I have met Sect Leader Yue, I realize that it was all a misunderstanding. Sect Leader Yue is even willing to accept Lingzhi into his sect. Compared to him, I am even more ashamed."

The cause of suffering is indeed something he truly meant.

Her biggest prejudice against Yue Buqun was that he swindled 50,000 taels of gold from Wanfu Wanshou Garden and also took liberties with her niece.

But now, the gold is not in his hands, and even the frivolousness was actually something his niece had asked for personally.

He treated everyone with courtesy throughout the entire process.

Furthermore, he witnessed him kill someone in a fit of rage for an old woman, and then do his best to make amends to the old woman afterwards.

Such a polite and grateful young man, who single-handedly supported the Huashan Sect, naturally impressed her greatly.

Especially when the impression changes from negative to positive, this positive feeling becomes even stronger.

Ku Yin would never admit that part of the reason was that this Sect Leader Yue was completely unmoved by his niece's stunning beauty, but when facing him, his gaze would always linger on her face unconsciously.

Without any lustful thoughts, simply appreciating and admiring, gave Ku Yin a sense of accomplishment.

I don't feel like I'm that old.

At the very least, it still holds some appeal for young heroes of the martial arts world.

Yue Buqun sighed, "Speaking of which, there is one more thing I would like to ask Abbess Kuyin for help with."

"Sect Leader Yue, please speak."

"This matter is still related to the feud between my Huashan Sect and the Beggars' Sect."

"Oh? Could it be that Sect Leader Yue wants this humble nun to testify that the Beggars' Sect committed the evil deeds first?"

"If only things were that simple."

Yue Buqun was clearly not content with just getting the gold coins from the Golden Lingzhi and the overlap with the Bitter Cause; he wanted to press his advantage and seek his fourth victory.

He walked slowly, but deliberately slowed his pace to give himself more time.

He explained, "The feud between the Huashan Sect and Shi Guanyin is known throughout the martial arts world, but the inside story is probably unknown to anyone. Shi Guanyin's real name is Li Qi, and she is the last descendant of the Huangshan family, which was wiped out by the Huashan Sect."

"Oh? This humble nun is indeed unaware of this matter."

Yue Buqun said, "The grudges between the two sides are difficult to judge right and wrong. What is interesting is the origin of Li Qi's martial arts skills. She went to Japan and met a strange man named Tianfeng Shisilang. She married him and had children with him. Later, she abandoned her husband and children to seek revenge and returned to the Central Plains, thus beginning the bloody storm of the Huashan Sect."

Kuyin did not speak, but listened attentively.

"Li Qi was unfaithful and abandoned her husband and children, but her husband, Tianfeng Shisilang, was deeply in love with her. He even brought his two sons to the Central Plains to find her, but Shi Guanyin avoided seeing him. This caused Tianfeng Shisilang to lose heart, so he simply stirred up a bloody storm in the Central Plains and challenged the two most skilled martial artists in the world at that time!"

Yue Buqun said solemnly, "He lost both battles and was seriously injured and on the verge of death. Before he died, he entrusted the two children to these two martial arts masters respectively."

Ku Yin's thoughts raced quickly, and she realized, "You mentioned the Beggar Clan leader Nangong Ling earlier. Could it be that this Nangong Ling is...?"

"Master Kuyin is indeed intelligent; no wonder she was able to inherit the position of leader of the Emei Sect at such a young age!"

Yue Buqun sighed with a face full of sorrow and compassion: "Alas, my Huashan Sect has long known about this matter, but I thought that grudges should not involve future generations, and these two children have not done any evil, so I kept quiet about it. But now, Shi Guanyin has been blocked in the desert by the Bat Prince and is unable to invade my Huashan Sect. Then, the Beggar Clan suddenly attacked. It can be seen that Nangong Ling is still colluding with her biological mother after all."

Ku Yin frowned deeply, asking incredulously, "Nangong Ling... is a Japanese?"

She naturally had reason to be surprised.

It should be noted that Japanese pirates have been invading the Chinese people for many years.

They are the most despicable cancer in the coastal area.

Therefore, upon hearing the name "Eastern Japan," Kuin instinctively felt displeased.

Yue Buqun sighed, "This is exactly what I've been worried about, and it even gives rise to a terrifying thought: these two brothers both possess blood of a foreign race, yet they were deliberately entrusted to be raised by the two most powerful and influential masters in the martial arts world. Now, Nangong Ling has inherited Ren Ci's position as the leader of the Beggars' Sect, and is now colluding with her mother. Could this be an invasion of the Central Plains martial arts world by a foreign race?!"

"What do you want me to help you with?"

"Pass this message on to everyone in the martial arts world."

Yue Buqun said, "If he is willing to repent and turn back from his wrong path, I am not unwilling to give him a chance. However, since he is not of our kind, his heart is bound to be different. Therefore, we must have everyone in the martial arts world supervise him to prevent him from going astray!"
