The Counterattack of the Villains

"Master Uncle Ning said in the letter that he needs to discuss important matters regarding the Five Mountains Alliance with the younger generation. I wonder if Master Uncle has any advice?"

In the main hall, Ning Qingyu sat at the main seat, Zuo Lengchan, Ding Mian, Lu Bai, Fei Bin and others sat on the left side, while Li Mu and Ning Zhong sat on the right side.

After listening to Zuo Lengchan's question, Ning Qingyu sighed softly and said: "Master Nephew Zuo also sees the current situation of the Huashan Sect, so there is no need for me to elaborate."

Zuo Lengchan's eyes flashed, and he sighed sincerely: "Everything in the world is unpredictable. When something like this happened to the Huashan Sect, we are really sad and sad."

"However, the inheritance of your noble sect has not been lost, and Junior Brother Yue is also a hero among people. I believe that it won't be long before the Huashan Sect can regain its prestige, so please forgive me, uncle."

Ning Qingyu smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Master nephew, you don't need to comfort me. With the current situation of the Huashan Sect, it's a blessing to be able to keep the inheritance going."

"Now we have too much time to take care of ourselves. We are really powerless to fight against the demon sect, so we have to rely on you, my nephew, and all of you."

Hearing the underlying meaning of Ning Qingyu's words, everyone in Songshan Mountain felt secretly happy, but their faces looked like they were sighing in pain.

Zuo Lengchan asked calmly: "What does Uncle Ning mean?"

Ning Qingyu stared at Zuo Lengchan and said seriously: "From now on, our Huashan sect needs to start a new mountain to recruit disciples and pass on the Huashan Taoism. We will not take care of other things."

"It is difficult for me to take on the position of leader of the Five Mountains Alliance no matter what. For this alliance, I have to ask my colleagues to choose another worthy person."

Zuo Lengchan said with regret on his face: "Among the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Master Ning, you have superb martial arts and outstanding talents. You are the best choice to lead the alliance."

"But for the sect, the most important thing is the inheritance of the Taoism, but my nephew does not dare to force it."

"I just don't know who Uncle Master thinks can succeed as the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance?"

Ning Qingyu smiled slightly and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Why should my nephew pretend to be confused because he understands?"

"Today, among the Five Mountains Sword Sect, you are the most powerful in Songshan, and among the new heads of all the sects, you, nephew Zuo, have the highest martial arts skills. Who else has this qualification except you?"

Ding Mian and others are still young after all. After hearing these words, they could no longer hold back, and a deep smile appeared in their eyes.

But it was obviously inappropriate to show joy at this time, so everyone lowered their eyelids and suppressed their emotions.

Zuo Lengchan hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and lowered his head, saying: "Uncle, thank you for your praise. In front of the seniors of various sects, the junior is still far behind."

Ning Qingyu shook his head and said: "You don't need to be too modest. The youngest of our generation are already in their late seventies and have no energy to take on important responsibilities anymore."

"The position of leader of the Five Sacred Mountains is of great importance, and only a person who has been strong for a year can be qualified."

"I plan to support you, Senior Nephew Zuo, to succeed you as the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance. Today I will have a chat with my Junior Nephew so that we can cooperate with you."

"As a true man, there are certain things that you should do without hesitation, and you should never shirk the responsibilities that you should bear. What do you think, my nephew?"

Zuo Lengchan's expression was calm, he clasped his fists and bowed his head again, saying: "Uncle Master's lesson is correct, it's just that I'm afraid that I am not very talented and have little knowledge, and I will fail my uncle's trust."

Ning Qingyu smiled and said: "I believe you will not let us old guys down."

"Although Buqun will have to shoulder the important task of revitalizing the sect in the future and has no time to assist you, he will definitely stand by your side and fully support you in some decisions related to the Five Mountains Sword Sect."

Hearing this, Zuo Lengchan also said with a very "understanding" tone: "Uncle, don't worry, if Junior Brother Yue needs any help from me in the future, I will definitely help him."

Ning Qingyu nodded happily and said, "With these words from my nephew, I feel relieved."

…

Outside the mountain gate.

With a smile on his face, Li Mu clasped his fists at Zuo Lengchan and said, "Senior Brother Zuo, fellow senior brothers, we will see you on the day of the alliance, and I ask for your support in the future."

Zuo Lengchan smiled and said: "Junior Brother Yue, don't worry, the Five Sacred Sword Sects are of the same spirit. As long as each sect still exists, no one can insult the Huashan Sect."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zuo, and you all have a safe journey."

"Farewell."

Looking at the backs of the people in Songshan who were walking briskly, a hint of teasing flashed across Li Mu's eyes.

Twenty years later, Zuo Lengchan was thick-faced, cunning and cunning. He was a complete villain and extremely difficult to deal with.

But now, after all, I am still a little younger and not mature enough to be decisive.

If Zuo Lengchan were in this era twenty years later, the Huashan Sect would have been destroyed, but the Qi Sect would definitely not be able to survive.

But now Zuo Lengchan is proud of Ning Qingyu's support for him to become the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, and proud of Li Mu's obedience to him.

Or maybe he was too confident, confident that the Huashan Sect would never be able to surpass Songshan Mountain no matter what.

On the way down the mountain, Fei Bin said happily: "This family of the Huashan sect is quite aware of current affairs, and we can be called heroes."

Ding Mian chuckled and said, "There's nothing you can do if you know the current situation. Judging from Master Ning's complexion, the time for his death is not far away."

"When he leaves, with Yue Buqun's ability, the position of leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance cannot be preserved. It is better to find a backer and get protection first."

Zuo Lengchan was secretly happy when he heard this, but he still said with a serious face: "After all, the Huashan Sect is also one of the Five Mountains Sword Sects, and it is only natural that we protect them."

"In addition, Junior Brother Yue has taken over as the head of Huashan. You must call him head Yue in the future. You must not lose your courtesy and let others say that we, the Songshan Sect, are arrogant."

"Yes, I will follow your senior brother's teachings."

…

Huashan Hall.

Ning Qingyu taught Ning Zhongze earnestly: "Zhongze, I am not worried about him now. You will still need to practice martial arts diligently in the future and help him more. The burden on his shoulders is not light."

Ning Zhong said seriously: "Don't worry, dad, my daughter understands."

After Li Mu returned, he talked to Ning Qingyu for a while and suddenly said: "Master, I want to take my junior sister to Zhongnan Mountain in a few days."

Ning Qingyu was startled when he heard this and said in confusion: "Although our Huashan Sect belongs to the Quanzhen Sect, the Quanzhen Sect has been scattered in all directions, and there are no Quanzhen disciples on Zhongnan Mountain. What are you doing there?"

Ning Zhongze looked at Li Mu in confusion.

Li Mu explained: "The disciples did not go there for the Quanzhen Sect. It is said that on Zhongnan Mountain there is a tomb of the living dead built by Zhenren Chongyang."

"Disciple wants to see if he can find any opportunities in that tomb."

Ning Qingyu said hoarsely: "I have heard of the Tomb of the Living Dead you mentioned. In the early Ming Dynasty, there were descendants of the Ancient Tomb Sect walking around the world."

"But in the past hundred years, the descendants of the Ancient Tomb Sect have disappeared. If there is any chance, I am afraid that they have been taken away by others. How can it be your turn?"

"Besides, the ancient tomb is blocked by tens of thousands of pounds of boulders. It's impossible to get in. Even if you get in, there are many traps inside and it's extremely dangerous. What can you gain?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true. In the past few years, my disciple has been traveling all over the world and his luck has been good. Maybe he will gain something?"

"Besides, Zhongnan Mountain is very close to Huashan Mountain. It's less than three hundred miles away. You can get there in a day's work. Even if you don't gain much, you won't delay anything."

Ning Qingyu's heart moved, and this was indeed the case.

This disciple's luck is so great that others would not find any opportunities, but he might be able to gain something.
