Chapter 85 Robbery? It's chivalry!

Anyone without the Heart-to-Heart Jade Pendant can come in and leave, but only with Lu Ming's permission. Generally speaking, once you're inside, you can forget about getting out; you can just stay there and retire.

Those who possess the jade pendants, such as Lin Shiyin and Yue Lingshan, can come and go freely, and they are bound together in life and death, and will never reveal any information about their home.

To make their journey easier, after taking Liu Jing in, they also settled Madam Liu at the manor to prevent any future retaliation. It could be the Songshan Sect, the Sun Moon Cult, or some other sect.

Previously, the Liu family had the backing of the Hengshan Sect and was located in Hengyang City, so they dared not be too reckless in their revenge. Now things are different. Without the protection of the Liu family, they are a piece of fat meat, and everyone will seize the opportunity to take a bite.

Ning Zhongze did ask about Liu Jing and Madam Liu's whereabouts, and after learning that they had been sent to a safe place, she didn't ask any further questions.

Yue Lingshan, however, remained silent with a smile. She knew perfectly well where the two were. Madam Liu was skilled in managing household affairs, knowledgeable and courteous, and a good companion for Lin Shiyin. Living in the family compound would avoid the grudges and conflicts of the martial arts world; it was truly a paradise.

The group was large, including members of the Huashan, Hengshan, and Wudang sects. Although there were some petty thieves along the way, none of them dared to come and die.

Passing through the county town, Lu Ming cupped his hands to Ning Zhongze and said, "Master's wife, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the affairs of the sect. If anything happens, just send a message by carrier pigeon to Yilin at Hengshan Sect; she knows how to contact me."

Yue Lingshan was definitely going to follow him. They were newlyweds and had to make love every day. Even when she had her period, she had to use both hands and feet and couldn't stay idle at all.

"Alright, be careful when you're out there. Now that you're the young sect leader, watch your words and actions. If you suffer any injustices, come back. The Huashan Sect will always be your home."

Ning Zhongze smiled gently. She was kind and gentle, highly skilled in martial arts, and not pedantic. She used to be the Jade Maiden of Mount Hua, known as Heroine Ning.

Lu Ming felt a slight stirring in his heart; this feeling was wonderful.

After parting ways, and seeing off his master's wife and the others, the Huashan Sect needed someone to stay and oversee things. Old Yue and Old Zuo must have gone into seclusion. It was fortunate that his master's wife was there, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to roam around so freely.

Moved by this thought, he felt it necessary to quickly upgrade the level of the back mountain of his homestead so that he could farm out the top-grade medicinal herbs.

The resource points in the back mountain are peculiar; even after upgrading, any extra herbs are added to the resource pool. What you get is purely based on luck, which also means it takes time.

It has a bit of a "mysterious but unlucky" feel to it.

With top-grade medicinal herbs, he could refine more precious pills. Even though they were both antidote pills, one pill could cure all poisons, taking effect immediately upon ingestion. Ordinary antidote pills, on the other hand, could only cure specific poisons and required several days to half a month to work, during which time the user would be weakened, significantly impacting their combat effectiveness.

Once we've made precious medicines like the Youth-Preserving Pill and the Marrow-Cleansing Pill, let's find a way to give some to Master's wife.

That night, he returned to the manor, where Sang San Niang was already waiting for him.

Yue Lingshan glanced at her, nodded slightly, and skipped off to find Liu Jing. She knew this was an elder of the Sun Moon Sect, but she didn't ask any questions. She completely trusted her husband; he was so good to her, and she couldn't possibly have the slightest doubt after receiving the jade pendant.

Lu Ming didn't hold back, saying, "You say your piece, I'll do mine: What is it?"

Sang San Niang was already used to it, her tone calm, her eyes filled with fervor as she said, "My lord, the Divine Cult has sent people. They've collected supplies from the Hengyang area and are returning to Blackwood Cliff. The person transporting them is Tong Baixiong, Dongfang Bubai's sworn brother before he castrated himself. This shipment contains many valuable items, as well as several 500-year-old medicinal herbs, plundered from the Southern Frontier!"

The Sun Moon Cult's power structure is complex, primarily composed of its members, with numerous surrounding gangs acting as its supporters. The largest of these is the Five Poisons Cult, whose leader, Lan Fenghuang, is young yet possesses a level of poison and martial arts skill that even grandmasters would not dare to underestimate.

Poisoning has always been considered taboo, yet it inspires deep hatred and fear. Many masters, including grandmasters, have died from poison. Those in the martial arts world are also familiar with sleeping potions and aphrodisiacs; a moment's carelessness can lead to an irreversible and tragic end.

Lu Ming's eyes lit up slightly. He was short of funds, and someone had delivered money so quickly!

The Dragon Guard Manor plans to bribe the Five Mountains Sword Sects, while the Eastern Depot has courted the Sun Moon Sect, seemingly all in preparation for sending troops to the border. Martial arts practitioners are bound to lose against regular armies, but they are highly effective as special forces units for ambushes and assassinations.

These things have nothing to do with him. If the sky falls, Old Yue will hold it up. He is the true sect leader.

All I have to do is protect my beloved. To protect my woman, I need strength. How do I gain strength? I can't do it without fighting and taking. After all, we're robbing a demonic sect, so this isn't robbery, it's chivalry!

As for bringing the Huashan Sect disciples to his home when things become impossible?

Don't even think about it; this place is destined to be his and his wives' secluded paradise. Moreover, the secret is of utmost importance. Once discovered, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the whole world would rise up against him. Never underestimate the wicked greed of human nature.

"Excellent, have scouted the route thoroughly. They've delivered themselves to our doorstep; we'd be cursed if we refused!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Sang San Niang was beaming with excitement. She had experienced the tranquility of her home and loved it from the bottom of her heart. If she had children in the future, she wouldn't have to worry about them being discovered if she raised them here. Moreover, as someone from the Demonic Sect, she knew all too well that the martial world was a dog-eat-dog world. If her master lost his will and only thought about indulging in pleasure, he would be assassinated sooner or later.

Seeing that her lord was still full of fighting spirit and had not become obsessed with women, she felt relieved.

Seeing her hesitation, Lu Ming squeezed her ample breasts hard: "Just say what's on your mind. Are you worried I'll get hooked on some sweet talk?"

Sang San Niang nodded and expressed her worries, and finally begged for forgiveness and punishment.

"You're right. In the future, just say what's on your mind. There's no need to keep it to yourself. Whether it's right or wrong, I can judge for myself. Okay, go back now."

Lu Ming waved his hand. He treated Sang San Niang quite well, but she still couldn't compare to his senior sister.

Later that evening, Yue Lingshan was still having intimate conversations with Liu Jing, and the suggestive words made the newlywed Liu Jing blush.

Seeing Lu Ming come in, Yue Lingshan blinked: "I thought you would spend the night at Sang San Niang's place!"

'

Sang San Niang also had her own house in the family estate, just like every woman with a jade pendant. With ample silver and materials, she could make them anytime.

"Hey, what are you saying, senior sister? I can't be without you for a single day. I happen to have something to tell you."

As Lu Ming spoke, he grabbed Liu Jing, who was about to leave, and gestured to her with his lip, indicating that she should go make the bed and not try to leave once she was here.

He didn't discuss important matters, but he certainly did a lot of personal things. Rain pattered on the banana leaves, and in the warm embrace of the hibiscus-scented tent, they spent a spring night together. The candlelight flickered, and the joy was boundless, beyond words!

Half a month later, at Xianxia Ridge.

A convoy was moving slowly forward, its wheels sinking deep into the road, leaving deep tracks, a testament to their weight.

Dressed in black and wearing a straw hat, Tong Baixiong's eyelids were twitching badly today, as if something bad was about to happen.

"Be careful, everyone. If anything happens to this shipment and it gets back to the cult leader, we'll both have to pay with our lives!"

If Dongfang Bubai hadn't been in seclusion, he would have personally escorted this shipment. It contained medicinal herbs that could help him break through to the Celestial Transformation realm within the Sunflower Manual; using them during his seclusion would greatly increase his chances of achieving that breakthrough.

He'll be a grandmaster by then!

There isn't a single grandmaster in the entire Sichuan region, which would make him a well-known figure even in the Central Plains martial arts world!

In addition to the resources of Sichuan, there were also rare medicinal herbs offered to him by the Eastern Depot in order to persuade him to lead the Sun Moon Cult to join the Eastern Depot.

Therefore, we absolutely cannot afford to fail!

A figure watched all this from the mountaintop, a cruel smile creeping across his face beneath his mask. "Perfect timing!"
