Zongwu: Eavesdropping on the inner voices, the female warriors have become strange

A-Bi looked at Su Xinghe and blinked, then said, "So you can understand and speak."

Su Xinghe felt a little embarrassed. He turned around and bowed slightly to Wang Yuyan, saying, "Miss, please follow me."

Su Xinghe jumped and landed on the steps in front of the wooden house halfway up the cliff. He turned to look at Wang Yuyan, but saw that she was standing there without moving. He was suddenly confused.

"I don't know martial arts." Wang Yuyan said.

Su Xinghe: ...

Fortunately, he was still wary that Wang Yuyan was sent by Li Qiushui to get rid of his master.

"Miss, I'm sorry." Su Xinghe could only jump down, wrap his hands with his sleeves, grab Wang Yuyan's arm through his sleeves, and fly with her back to the wooden house.

"Is my grandpa in there?" Wang Yuyan was confused when she saw that the wooden house had no door.

Su Xinghe smiled slightly, waved his sleeves, and made a big hole in the wall of the wooden house. He gestured to Wang Yuyan to go in by herself, while he stood guard outside the house.

Seeing that Su Xinghe had no intention of taking them to see Wuyazi, Azhu and Abi sat down on the stool next to the chessboard carved out of a stone table and watched the exquisite chess game.

Azhu and Abi had both heard Chen Liu say that if they wanted to meet Wuyazi, they had to crack the Zhenlong chess game. Moreover, they had heard Chen Liu mention this chess game more than once or twice, so they were naturally interested in it.

Ah Zhu and Ah Bi also knew how to play Go, and their skills were quite good. After watching for a while, they started playing with great interest, one playing with white and the other with black.

Meanwhile, Wang Yuyan had already entered the dark, rumbling wooden house and looked up at Wuyazi, whose outline was only vaguely visible. Wuyazi's body was suspended in the air above the wooden house. Upon seeing Wang Yuyan, his body swayed, and the rope holding him slowly dropped down, landing directly in front of Wang Yuyan. Only then did Wang Yuyan get a clear look at Wuyazi. Although Wuyazi had a head full of white hair, his face was as handsome as a crown of jade. Although he was over ninety years old, he still looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. Wuyazi was also very handsome, which was not surprising. After all, it was impossible for someone like Tianshan Tonglao and Li Qiushui to fight over him without being handsome.

"Similar, similar, so similar." Wuyazi looked at Wang Yuyan and couldn't help but reveal a happy smile on his face.

"Are you my grandpa?" Wang Yuyan asked.

"Child, your name is Wang Yuyan, right? Your mother is Qingluo? I am your grandpa." Wuyazi has been hiding here for over twenty years. He didn't expect to see his family before his death. Naturally, he was overjoyed. He said, "When your grandmother took your mother away, she was still a child. I didn't expect that Qingluo's child would grow up like this in the blink of an eye."

"Yes, grandpa, my mother is Li Qingluo." Wang Yuyan smiled and replied.

"How is your mother now?"

"Mother is doing well. We are now living in Mantuo Villa in Wuxi, and she is managing the family business."

"Where's your grandmother?"

"I don't know. I've never met my grandmother. I once heard my mother say that she left her when she was very young."

Wuyazi was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but let out a wry smile. It wasn't clear who was right or wrong between him and Li Qiushui. He had been the one who wronged Li Qiushui first, and to retaliate, Li Qiushui not only sought out handsome men to return to Langhuan Blessed Land and indulge in pleasure in front of him, but also hooked up with his second disciple, Ding Chunqiu. All of this was simply to piss him off, to try and change his mind. But Li Qiushui had misjudged him; what man could tolerate such a reconciliation? Furthermore, Wuyazi was already obsessed with Li Qiushui's sister, Li Canghai, which further disliked her. This angered Li Qiushui enough to team up with Ding Chunqiu to attack and severely injure him.

Wuyazi had originally thought that after Li Qiushui's sneak attack and severe injury, she would stay with Ding Chunqiu and raise Li Qingluo. But now he suddenly thought of Li Qiushui's cold and fickle nature. How could she possibly raise Li Qingluo? She might have gone somewhere else to find happiness.

Wuyazi sighed slightly and said, "My children, I'm sorry for your hardship. Did your mother ask you to come to me?"

"No." Wang Yuyan shook her head and said, "Mother didn't know I came to see Grandpa. I just heard about him by chance, so I came here on my own. I wanted to see him."

"Good boy! Good boy!" Wuyazi smiled even more happily. As long as Wang Yuyan wasn't sent by Li Qiushui, it was fine. And when she heard the news about him, she rushed to see him without even notifying her mother, which made Wuyazi even happier.

Finding a successor was a necessary choice. Su Xinghe's mind was too scattered, and he preferred miscellaneous arts like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Naturally, his martial arts skills had fallen behind, and he couldn't possibly defeat Ding Chunqiu. Even if he passed on his skills to him, his personality made it difficult for him to avenge him. Therefore, Wuyazi wanted to find a successor with outstanding understanding and talent to inherit his legacy and, by the way, avenge him by killing Ding Chunqiu. However, passing on his skills to an outsider was not as good as passing them on to his own granddaughter. He had no choice before, but now he didn't need to.

No matter how Wang Yuyan learned about him, Wuyazi no longer cared. He had already decided to pass on his skills to Wang Yuyan. After that, Wuyazi would die. Since he was already dead, why would he care about the flood?

Chapter 24 Wuyazi (Part )

"Child, you just said you don't know martial arts?" Wuyazi naturally heard Wang Yuyan say that she didn't know martial arts before.

Wang Yuyan lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Grandpa, I don't like practicing martial arts."

"You don't know any martial arts?" Wuyazi asked.

"Not really. I've read and memorized all the martial arts secrets in the Langhuan Jade Cave at home, but I haven't practiced them."

Wuyazi: ...

"Memorized them all?" Wuyazi couldn't help but choke out. You have to remember that back then, he and Li Qiushui had collected at least thousands of martial arts manuals from various sects in order to combine the strengths of various schools to create a new martial arts technique. How old was Wang Yuyan? Sixteen or seventeen at most, and she had read and memorized all those thousands of martial arts manuals?

"Child, let me test you." Wuyazi asked hurriedly, "How do you execute the Willow Catkins Flying Sword attack with the Wind Blowing Willow, and how do you counter it?"

Wang Yuyan said without hesitation, "Flying Willow Catkins is the fourth move of the Qingfeng Fuliu Sword. It directly pierces the enemy's Tanzhong acupoint. There are fifty-seven ways to break it. The sword techniques include the seventh move of the Five Tigers Breaking the Gate Sword, Flying Sky Tiger, the thirteenth move of the Tan Family Sword Technique, Draw the Sword to Cut the Water, and the Ground Lying Sword... The sword techniques include the fifth move of Yuan Gong Sword Technique, Heart Yuan Pointing the Way, and the ninth move of the Yizi Lightning Sword, Unstoppable... The boxing techniques include the Killing Fist..."

As Wuyazi listened to Wang Yuyan's unhesitating cracking methods, his expression grew increasingly amazed. It seemed she was truly familiar with these martial arts techniques, having thoroughly read and understood them. Still, Wuyazi wanted to confirm further, asking a number of questions about how to perform and crack them. Wang Yuyan continued to answer fluently. In the cabin, Wuyazi and Wang Yuyan exchanged questions and answers for over half an hour, until Wang Yuyan's mouth was dry from answering, and Wuyazi finally burst into laughter.

"Heaven won't abandon me! Heaven won't abandon me!" Wuyazi looked at Wang Yuyan, his mood becoming even more excited. With such an extraordinary understanding of his granddaughter, who was like a walking dictionary of martial arts, why would he need to look for a successor? Wouldn't his own granddaughter be more attractive?

Meanwhile, Su Xinghe, along with Ah Zhu and Ah Bi, had been standing at the doorway of the cabin for over a quarter of an hour. He had naturally overheard the conversation between Wuyazi and Wang Yuyan. Su Xinghe was completely bewildered, not knowing what to do.

Azhu and Abi, curious about the Zhenlong chess game that Chen Liu had mentioned several times before, started playing it. They became so engrossed in the game that they didn't notice Su Xinghe had been standing next to them, watching them solve it.

As they played chess, Ah Zhu and Ah Bi discussed their plan, deducing how to crack the game. They both remembered Chen Liu's words that the key to cracking the Zhenlong game was to risk their lives. After several attempts, they finally found a solution. Su Xinghe was naturally overjoyed. The two girls had cracked the Zhenlong game, a game he had been agonizing over for over twenty years. How could he not be ecstatic? However, since two people had cracked the game this time, he didn't know what to do. After some thought, he decided to bring them both up to the master and let him choose. However, when Su Xinghe and Ah Zhu and Ah Bi entered the cabin, they discovered Wuyazi was testing Wang Yuyan. Not daring to interrupt, Su Xinghe decided to wait until the master finished testing Wang Yuyan before reporting on Ah Zhu and Ah Bi's joint efforts to crack the Zhenlong game.

But as Su Xinghe listened, he sensed something was amiss. Wuyazi and Wang Yuyan's conversation, lasting just over a quarter of an hour, involved at least a thousand martial arts manuals and tens of thousands of moves. Yet, no matter what Wuyazi asked, Wang Yuyan answered fluently, finding at least dozens of countermeasures for any move Wuyazi suggested. The more Su Xinghe listened, the more bewildered he became. Wang Yuyan was only sixteen or seventeen, wasn't she? She could memorize so many martial arts moves, even know them by heart. What kind of demon was she? In the face of such a demon, the savvy of Ah Zhu and Ah Bi, who had combined to crack the Zhenlong chess game, paled in his eyes. He already had a supercar, so why would he need a bicycle?

Su Xinghe could also see that his master was becoming increasingly satisfied with his granddaughter, Wang Yuyan, and presumably had already made up his mind to make her his successor. However, since it was Wuyazi who had set up the Zhenlong chess game to find a successor, Su Xinghe couldn't help but report it. After Wuyazi's laughter subsided, Su Xinghe bravely stepped forward to report, "Master, these two girls have cracked Master's Zhenlong chess game."

"Gah!" Wuyazi couldn't help but twitch, feeling a slight toothache. How could it all come together? For over twenty years, he'd been searching for a successor with exceptional comprehension, but to no avail. Unexpectedly, today, he'd not only meet his incredibly gifted granddaughter, but also encounter two people who could crack his Zhenlong chess game.

When Wang Yuyan heard that Ah Zhu and Ah Bi had cracked the Zhenlong chess game, she asked curiously, "Ah Zhu and Ah Bi, have you cracked the Zhenlong chess game?"

"Yes!" A Bi nodded and said, "Yes, cousin."

"Who are these two?" Wuyazi looked at Wang Yuyan.

"Grandpa, they are Azhu and Abi, two maids from my cousin's family. They came with me." Wang Yuyan said.

"So that's how it is." Wuyazi smiled. It turned out to be just two maids, and they came with Wang Yuyan. That would be easy. He could just take them into his sect and teach them one or two of the Xiaoyao Sect's unique skills. Wuyazi looked at Ah Zhu and Ah Bi and said with a smile, "Are you two little girls willing to join my Xiaoyao Sect?"

"Well, I'm from the Xiaoyao Sect too." A Bi said weakly.

"Are you also from the Xiaoyao Sect?" Wuyazi and Su Xinghe were both stunned. Su Xinghe quickly asked, "Who is your master?"

"My master's name is Kang Guangling." A Bi said.

"So he is Guangling's disciple!" Wuyazi was even happier.

Su Xinghe said angrily, "Didn't I already expel them from the Xiaoyao Sect? Why does Kang Guangling still consider himself a member of the Xiaoyao Sect?"

"Master didn't tell me he was from the Xiaoyao Sect." A Bi quickly explained for her master, "I only found out from others a few days ago that my master was from the Xiaoyao Sect."

"Who did you hear that from?" Su Xinghe was shocked.

"He was a petty thief. It was from him that I learned that my grandfather was living in seclusion in the Deaf and Mute Valley of Leigushan Mountain." Wang Yuyan said.

"Little thief?" Wuyazi was a little confused.

"He's just a little thief." When Wang Yuyan mentioned Chen Liu, she couldn't help getting angry and showed a sullen expression.

Wuyazi saw Wang Yuyan's angry look and seemed to have thought of something, a smile on his face. Perhaps it was someone his granddaughter liked. As for how that person knew him, Wuyazi no longer wanted to care. It was Wang Yuyan's own business.

Wuyazi turned to look at Ah Zhu and Ah Bi and said, "Since you two little girls have successfully cracked the Zhenlong chess game I set up, then for the next period of time, you two should learn the Xiao Wuxiang Gong from me."

Chapter 25: Ruthless and Unrighteous

Back then, Xiaoyaozi split the Eternal Spring Art into three parts, teaching each to his three disciples. The Divine Art of the North Sea, one of the most important of the Xiaoyao Sect's three unique martial arts, was taught by Xiaoyaozi as a rule, restricted to the sect leader's lineage. Wuyazi, deeply entrenched in his heart, had already chosen his granddaughter as the heir to the Xiaoyao Sect's leadership, so naturally, he passed on the Divine Art of the North Sea to Wang Yuyan. And while Ah Zhu and Ah Bi had cracked the Zhenlong chess game, who could compare to his granddaughter, who was closer to him and more so than him?

Although he couldn't pass on the Divine Art of the North Sea to Ah Zhu and Ah Bi, he could still teach them the Small Wuxiang Gong. The Small Wuxiang Gong was Li Qiushui's primary cultivation technique, and its power was no less than that of the Divine Art of the North Sea. When Wuyazi and Li Qiushui married, they lived in seclusion in the Langhuan Blessed Land of Dali. Li Qiushui learned his Divine Art of the North Sea, and Wuyazi naturally learned her Small Wuxiang Gong as well.

In the original novel, the reason why Wuyazi sent Xuzhu to learn martial arts from the Tianshan Tonglao after teaching him martial arts was because he could no longer hold on and did not even have time to teach Xuzhu martial arts, so he had to teach him martial arts in a hurry. However, Wuyazi still has time now. If nothing unexpected happens, he can live for at least a few more years. Therefore, he naturally has the time to carefully teach Wang Yuyan and Azhu and Abi the Beiming Divine Art, Xiao Wuxiang Gong, Lingbo Weibu and other unique skills. He even taught Wang Yuyan other unique skills of the Xiaoyao Sect, such as the Tianshan Zhemei Hand, Tianshan Liuyang Palm, and Baihong Palm Power.

While Wang Yuyan and Azhu and Abi were learning Beiming Magical Art, Xiaowuxiang Art, Lingbo Weibu and other unique martial arts from Wuyazi in the Deaf and Mute Valley, the news that Murong Fu's fiancée Wang Yuyan and his maids Azhu and Abi were abducted to the mountain stronghold by bandits and their innocence was slowly spreading and fermenting in the Song Dynasty martial arts world.

The Great Master had once instructed two of his trusted confidants to go into hiding. If they didn't receive any information from him within a month, they were to spread the news that Murong Fu's fiancée, Wang Yuyan, and his two maids, Azhu and Abi, had been tainted by bandits. They were also to relay the news of Murong Fu's death at his hands to the Shaolin elders with whom he had a dealings. Neither Chen Liu nor Wang Yuyan or Azhu and Abi knew of this. The Great Master was truly cunning.

After the boss was killed by Chen Liu, Wang Yuyan, Azhu and Abi first went to Xiaojing Lake in Xinyang, and then went to the Deaf and Mute Valley in Leigushan to learn martial arts from Wuyazi. The time spent on the road and the time spent on martial arts added up to more than a month. The two confidants of the boss did not receive the news he sent back, so naturally they spread the news according to his prior arrangement and went to Shaolin Temple to report the news.

The big boss probably thought that since he had given so much money to the Shaolin Temple elder, if anything happened to him, the elder would probably avenge him. But he might have thought too much. Who was the big boss? A bandit! And who was the other party? Murong Fu! If it was just a nobody with no fame or power, the elder would probably send one or two monks to help him avenge his death. However, when the elder learned that the other party was Murong Fu from the Gusu Murong family, he pinched one of the trusted brothers that the big boss had sent to report the news to death with a light pinch, and then had the monks bury him. As for the other trusted brother who was waiting for his companions outside the Shaolin Temple, he waited for a long time for his companions to return, and was so scared that he ran away. From then on, he changed his name and identity, and dared not pursue the promising career of banditry anymore.

As time went by, the news of Wang Yuyan's defilement also spread to Gusu Murong's Swallow Valley. After hearing this news, Murong Fu was naturally dumbfounded and stunned.

Although the two parties had not yet made an engagement, and Li Qingluo had always opposed Wang Yuyan marrying Murong Fu, Murong Fu himself had always believed that whether for the martial arts secrets of Mantuo Villa or for the support of the Gusu Wang family, he would marry Wang Yuyan in the future. When the news that Wang Yuyan had been raped by bandits spread back to Yanziwu, Murong Fu was initially incredulous. He hurried to Mantuo Villa to find Wang Yuyan and ask her what had happened. However, Murong Fu did not find Wang Yuyan at Mantuo Villa, and even his two maids, Azhu and Abi, disappeared with her.

When Li Qingluo heard from Murong Fu that her daughter Wang Yuyan had been defiled by bandits, she was stunned and sat down on the ground.

Murong Fu and Li Qingluo dispatched a large number of personnel to search for Wang Yuyan, Ah Zhu, and Ah Bi, but after searching for several days, they were unable to find them. Later, news arrived from Wujiang County that Ah Zhu had been spotted a few days earlier, but Wang Yuyan and Ah Bi had not been seen. Ah Zhu had inquired about Leigu Mountain and Xiaojing Lake before disappearing. Murong Fu and Li Qingluo assumed that Wang Yuyan and Ah Zhu had gone into hiding because they were too embarrassed to see anyone, and they came to believe that their innocence had indeed been tarnished by the bandits.

"What a sin!" Li Qingluo sat down on the ground and burst into tears. Her life was miserable, but she didn't expect her daughter's life was even more miserable. Her innocence was tarnished by bandits. Would she ever be able to marry in the future?

After crying for a while, Li Qingluo suddenly looked up at Murong Fu, whose face had turned black, and said, "Fuguan, Yuyan is your fiancée..."

"Aunt, please don't say that. My cousin and I are innocent. We haven't secretly agreed to marry each other. I've always treated Cousin Yuyan as my sister." Murong Fu hurriedly denied it, somewhat panicked. He was a prince and grandson of the Great Yan royal family, the future emperor of Great Yan. How could he possibly marry a slut who had been defiled by bandits? He had no shame, and his Murong family still had a reputation to uphold.

"You bastard, Yuyan has paid so much for you. The reason she got into trouble this time was because she went to your family's business with Azhu and Abi to check the accounts. Now that Yuyan is in trouble, you don't want to take responsibility?" Li Qingluo cursed.

"Aunt, you've always been reluctant to let my cousin marry me..."

"I do." Li Qingluo said quickly.

"Well, aunt, I have something else to do at home. I will continue to send people to look for my cousin. After finding her, I will send her back to you." Murong Fu turned around and ran away. You are willing, but I am not.

"Murong Fu, you heartless and ungrateful bastard, I curse you to die a miserable death and give birth to a child without a skinny swallow..."

"Crazy woman!" After running out of Mantuo Villa and boarding his family's boat, Murong Fu saw Li Qingluo chasing after him, cursing and swearing at him. He panicked and hurriedly called to Bao Bu Tong and Gong Ye Qian, "Hurry up, hurry up, and start the boat."

"Young Master, what's going on..." After the boat left Mantuo Villa for a distance, Bao Bu Tong stretched his head to look at Li Qingluo, who was still standing on the shore, pointing at their boat and cursing, and asked Murong Fu.

Murong Fu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Qingluo hadn't sent the maids from Mantuo Villa to chase after her by boat. He said, "That crazy woman wanted to marry my cousin to me."

Different packages: ...

Gongye Qian: ...

Chapter 26: Zhong Ling (Part )

Bao Bu Tong and Gong Ye Qian were in a state of mixed emotions, at a loss for words. Previously, Li Qingluo had been reluctant to marry Wang Yuyan to their young master, but now she was insisting on it. Previously, their young master had been obsessed with marrying Wang Yuyan to gain access to the Mantuo Villa's martial arts secrets and the support of the Gusu Wang family, but now he was avoiding her like the devil, fearing any involvement with Wang Yuyan.

"Brother Bao San, when you go back, spread the word that cousin Yuyan is not my fiancée, she is just an ordinary relative of mine and has nothing to do with my Murong family." Murong Fu instructed Bao Bu Tong.

"Yes, sir." Bao Bu Tong's emotions were even more complicated. Although he knew he was doing this to preserve the reputation of the Gusu Murong family, he felt that the sir was being too heartless. It was hard enough for his cousin to have her innocence tarnished by bandits. He expected her to be even more desperate after hearing the news from the Murong family.

"Sir, what about Ah Zhu and Ah Bi?" Bao Bu Tong asked.

"Azhu and Abi?" Murong Fu pondered for a long moment, then sighed slightly. He was quite fond of these two beautiful maids, Azhu and Abi. Abi was gentle, and Azhu was shrewd. When they were away, Azhu managed Swallow Valley and many of the Murong family's businesses. It could be said that Azhu and Abi helped him a lot. If it weren't for this incident, he would probably have taken them in as concubines in the future, but now their innocence had been tarnished.

"After all, they have served me since they were young. Even if they have no merit, they have worked hard. If I meet them in the future, I will give them a generous dowry. Give them two thousand, no, one thousand taels of silver."
