Zongwu: I am Ma Dayuan's disciple, Master's wife, you are so hot

"Junior Brother Liu, don't say that Alliance Leader Zuo is being harsh. As long as you kill Qu Yang and show your true feelings, whether you want to retire or become an official to serve the court in the future is your own business. But if you don't give an explanation to the Five Mountains Sword Sect and many other fellow martial artists about your association with Qu Yang, I'm afraid that today's retirement meeting won't be able to proceed."

Killing Liu Zhengfeng is not the purpose of the Songshan Sect!

The purpose of the Songshan Sect this time is very simple, to establish its authority and stir up trouble, taking the opportunity to interfere in the internal affairs of the other Five Mountains alliances, so as to integrate the Five Mountains and unify the sects in the future.

Therefore, it doesn’t really matter whether Liu Zhengfeng dies or not.

But faced with the "opportunity" given by Ding Mian, Liu Zhengfeng shook his head.

"Now Liu just wants to retire and serve the court well in the future." As he spoke, Liu Zhengfeng turned his gaze to Shangguan Haitang.

The Ming Dynasty today is not the Ming Dynasty in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.

The power of the imperial court cannot be ignored. Let alone the Songshan Sect, even if the Five Mountains Sword Sects were tied together, no one would be a match for the imperial court.

In the martial arts world, when it comes to power, no gang dares to say that it can compare with the imperial court.

Even Shaolin, which has a long tradition, and Wudang, which has risen in the last hundred years, are not able to do so.

Shangguan Haitang's attitude is very important.

Ding Mian also looked at the other party: "Liu Zhengfeng is colluding with the Demon Cult, what does Master Shangguan say?"

Shangguan Haitang glanced at Ding Mian indifferently and said, "Liu Zhengfeng has accepted the imperial decree and expressed his gratitude. He is now a lieutenant general of the imperial court. The imperial court will handle this matter."

Chapter 233 Lin Pingzhi: I, an old dog, shall die!

Facing the imperial court, Ding Mian naturally didn't dare to say much.

If Shangguan Haitang and Gui Hai Yidao were not there, Liu Zhengfeng would just kill them. Not to mention that he was an official, which was nothing to people in the martial arts world.

Afterwards, the imperial court generally would not pursue the matter.

After all, the essence of the imperial court is to appease and win over the martial arts sects, so the death of a few court officials is not a big deal.

Moreover, it would be even more difficult for the imperial court to settle accounts with Songshan Sect because Liu Zhengfeng colluded with the Demon Sect. Yes, no matter who was singled out by the imperial court, they would not be able to gain any influence over the sect.

But with the combined power of all the martial arts sects, even the Ming Dynasty court had to make certain concessions.

The Songshan Sect certainly cannot represent the entire martial arts world, but it is a member of the righteous sect of the Ming Dynasty. What it did is justifiable on the surface. The imperial court is embarrassed by this, so other righteous sects will naturally support the Songshan Sect.

However, Shangguan Haitang and Gui Hai Yidao are here now, and Shangguan Haitang has no intention of covering up for Liu Zhengfeng. She just took the matter over on the grounds that Liu Zhengfeng had been appointed as a lieutenant general.

It would be difficult for Ding Mian to compete with Shangguan Haitang!

Fortunately, this matter did not hurt the Songshan Sect. Although they failed to establish their authority by using Liu Zhengfeng, Liu Zhengfeng was dealt with by the court. The Songshan Sect had more reason to cause trouble for the Hengshan Sect.

Otherwise, with Liu Zhengfeng as a target in front, it would be difficult for the Songshan Sect to directly blame the Hengshan Sect.

But now that Liu Zhengfeng himself is being dealt with by the court, the Songshan Sect can openly ask the Hengshan Sect for an explanation.

"In that case, Liu Zhengfeng will be handed over to Master Shangguan. I, Ding, will take my leave first." Ding Mian chose to give in and left with Fei Bin, who was seriously injured by Gui Hai's knife.

As for the other people in the backyard of Liu's mansion, they would talk about it later.

"Are we going to continue the retirement ceremony?" After Ding Mian and others left, Shangguan Haitang looked at Liu Zhengfeng and asked.

"Let's...put this matter on hold. I want to go to the backyard and take a look." Liu Zhengfeng shook his head. He retired from the underworld because he was worried that his affair with Qu Yang would be exposed. Now that the matter has been made public, there is no point in retiring.

In comparison, he was more concerned about the safety of his family in the backyard.

Liu Zhengfeng said goodbye and left, heading towards the backyard.

In the backyard, Liu Zhengfeng's family members were fine, but the disciples of the Songshan School were lying on the ground, seriously injured.

In addition to ordinary disciples, there are also Thirteen Guardians of the Songshan Sect.

The appearance of these people made Liu Zhengfeng shocked and angry.

If Gui Hai had not taken action, all the people in his family would have fallen into the hands of the Songshan Sect.

"Songshan Sect...even if they want me to admit my affair with Brother Qu, it's too much to attack my family!" Liu Zhengfeng gritted his teeth secretly, but he didn't hate them that much in his heart.

After all, he felt that the Songshan sect attacked his family only to threaten him, and would not really implicate his own family.

He actually overestimated the Songshan School's bottom line!

At this time, Liu Zhengfeng, the person involved, had left the Liu Mansion. In addition, because Liu Zhengfeng had flattered the imperial court and colluded with the Demon Cult, the people from the martial arts world who were invited prepared to say goodbye and leave after some discussions.

Jie Feng was also preparing to leave, and his face did not look very good.

What Liu Zhengfeng did today could be said to have offended the old man, and the little friendship they had in their early years was completely gone.

Liu Zhengfeng's collusion with the Demon Cult and his association with Qu Yang was actually not a big deal in Jie Feng's opinion.

He has been in the martial arts world for so many years that he has long passed the age of seeing things in black and white. He knows very well that there may be heroes among the people in the Demon Sect.

And not all people in the righteous sects are good.

What really made him unhappy was that Liu Zhengfeng defected to the imperial court and became its dog.

It’s not that people in the underworld can’t have any dealings with the imperial court. That’s unrealistic, but Liu Zhengfeng is going too far.

Before, he knelt down to receive the imperial edict, and kept saying "Long live the emperor", which was even more shameful.

Anyway, seeing him like that, Jie Feng felt very uncomfortable.

Even if you want to surrender to the court, there is no need to be so spineless!

He has brought shame to all the people in the underworld.

Jie Feng shook his head and sighed, and had already given Liu Zhengfeng a cross in his heart. He planned not to have any contact with him in the future.

"Boss Jie, why don't you wait a little longer? There will be another good show soon." However, just as Jie Feng was about to leave, Shen Xin stopped him.

"Oh?" Xie Feng followed Shen Xin's gaze and saw Yu Canghai sitting not far away. He smiled and said, "In that case, the old beggar should stay and watch the show."

Soon, the show began.

Lin Pingzhi, dressed in a bright red robe and holding a slender sword in his hand, walked in from the main gate of Liu's mansion.

When Lin Pingzhi appeared, the whole compound fell silent.

It’s not that Lin Pingzhi is very powerful, but he has a murderous look on his face and comes with a sword in hand, which obviously means he has no good intentions and wants to show that there is something exciting to watch.

Liu Zhengfeng's performance today was extremely discouraging to these people in the martial arts world. Now Lin Pingzhi's behavior shocked everyone present.

Liu Zhengfeng, who kneels down and acts like a dog to the imperial court, is not a man of the world.

Someone like Lin Pingzhi, who goes to the enemy's door alone with a sword in hand, is truly a man of the world.

Those who were originally preparing to leave but had not yet stood up to say goodbye, now hurriedly sat back down, and those who were still in their seats sat up straighter.

Everyone's eyes were on Lin Pingzhi's skills, with gossipy gleams in their eyes.

Among those present, only the people from Qingcheng Sect and Yue Buqun felt a little uneasy at this moment.

Especially Yue Buqun, the look he gave Lin Pingzhi was filled with greed and fear.

He was not afraid that Lin Pingzhi would seek revenge on him, but he was afraid that Lin Pingzhi would reveal that he coveted the Lin family's Exorcism Sword Technique. In this way, the reputation he had worked so hard to build would be ruined.

Fortunately, Lin Pingzhi's gaze only swept across Yue Buqun, and then he turned his gaze to Yu Canghai.

"Old dog, suffer death!"

"Who are you?" Yu Canghai stared at Lin Pingzhi and pretended to be confused.

"You killed dozens of people from my Fuwei Escort Agency and kidnapped my parents. Now, you can't recognize me?" Lin Pingzhi said with a smile, and then (Zhao Nuo Zhao) glared at Yu Canghai: "Or are you afraid?"

"Hmph, sir, please don't slander me. I have no grudge against you, so why would I attack your Lin family?" Yu Canghai still denied it.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, he had to admit that he was not sure he could defeat Lin Pingzhi now, and if he was not careful, he might even die under Lin Pingzhi's sword.

“Stop talking nonsense. You want the Exorcism Sword Technique of my Lin family, right? Now, the sword technique is in my hands. If you still want it, then fight me openly. If you win, this sword technique will be your trophy. If you lose, hehe…”

"Okay, then I'll come and ask for your advice!"

Yu Canghai certainly knew that today's battle was inevitable. The reason why he denied it just now was that he wanted to pull others to help him deal with Lin Pingzhi.

But now, Lin Pingzhi took out the Sword of Exorcism.

Yu Canghai had to admit that he was greedy!

Chapter 234: I’m challenging you one-on-one, what do you want to do?

"What kind of sword technique is it?"

"You don't even know the Exorcism Sword Technique? The ancestors of the Fuwei Escort Agency made their name with the Exorcism Sword Technique. How impressive."

"Then why haven't I heard of it in recent years? I have heard of the Fuwei Escort Agency, but I have never heard of the Exorcist Sword Technique."

"The Fuwei Escort Agency has many friends, and Lin Zhennan's business methods are even more sophisticated. Wherever the Fuwei Escort Agency goes, the bandits often give face and don't rob. Lin Zhennan hardly takes action, so of course you don't know the Exorcism Sword Technique."

"Then today I have a chance to see it for myself!"

Everyone stared at Lin Pingzhi curiously. They didn't know the real inside story of the Fuwei Escort Agency, so they didn't think of using the Exorcism Sword Technique.

There are so many powerful martial arts in this world. The 72 unique skills of Shaolin and the many martial arts passed down by Master Zhang of Wudang are all unique skills.

But who would be stupid enough to try to learn the martial arts of these sects!

Some second- and third-rate martial arts sects also have unique skills, but most of them can keep their unique skills to themselves.

Not many people know that the Fuwei Escort Agency is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. When the enemy is strong and we are weak, although our skills are great, they are not as important as our own lives.
