Lady, let me explain.

Chapter 20: Sect Leader
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhongze looked at the two of them coldly.

Zhang Wuji had no idea the reason. He was honest and indecisive by nature, and when asked by Lin Yi, he was speechless.

Xiao Zhao was quick-witted and knew the reason after Yue Buqun attacked her, but as a girl, it was somewhat difficult for her to speak out.

Seeing this, Ning Zhongze drew his sword in an instant.

She has a strong character, and if her husband is killed, she will definitely take revenge!
Lin Yi also quickly drew his sword, thinking that his acting skills were still not up to par. How could a disciple fall behind his master's wife...

Lin Yi said coldly, "You two murdered me first, and then slandered me later. I won't let you two give me an explanation!"

It would be best if Zhang Wuji could be charged with the crime of killing Yue Buqun. He wanted to mediate the feud between the six major sects and the Ming Cult, but this was not in Lin Yi's interest.

For Lin Yi, the muddier the waters are in the battle at Guangmingding, the better.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..." Zhang Wuji was speechless for a moment and quickly protected Xiao Zhao behind him.

Lin Yi held his sword horizontally, ready to attack.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhao no longer cared about being embarrassed and quickly shouted, "Mrs. Yue, just look at Master Yue's lower body and you'll know the reason!"

When Xiao Zhao heard Yue Buqun claiming to be from the Huashan Sect, she suspected that he was the leader of the Huashan Sect. Seeing this beautiful woman further confirmed her suspicion.

"We discovered Sect Leader Yue's secret, so he wanted to kill us to silence us..."

Xiao Zhao was shocked when she heard this! They were husband and wife, and the wife didn't know her husband's secret?
Now that she has revealed the truth, given the way these famous and upright sects operate, wouldn't they have to kill them to silence them for the sake of their sect's reputation?

But Xiao Zhao thought again, "Young Master has mastered the Great Shift of the Universe to the sixth level, so why would he be afraid of a small Huashan Sect?" They couldn't be wronged, so they had to make things clear.

Zhang Wuji was completely bewildered when he heard Xiao Zhao mention "lower body," but knowing he had killed the leader of the Huashan Sect, he felt immense regret! If he had known this earlier, he would have withdrawn his power and endured Yue Buqun's palm strike...

Lin Yi looked at the tear in Yue Buqun's clothes and understood instantly.

Old Yue, your death is so undignified... He turned to look at Ning Zhongze, his face full of questions.

When Ning Zhongze heard what Xiao Zhao said, he was stunned at first, then he remembered something and his face turned pale, as if he had lost his parents!

She fell down and sat down in front of Yue Buqun's body, straightened his clothes with her hands, and stared blankly at Yue Buqun's face that was still open in death.

"These two don't seem to be sinister and cunning. It's really as they say. Senior Brother was saved by them, but just because they discovered the secret of his body, they want to kill him..."

"As the head of the Huashan Sect, how is he any different from someone who practices unorthodox methods when he acts like this?"

The facts are right before his eyes, and Ning Zhongze has no choice but to believe it.

Instantly, Yue Buqun's image in her heart collapsed, and Ning Zhongze felt completely hopeless...

"Master's wife?"

Seeing Ning Zhongze sad, Lin Yi felt a little reluctant.

However, Yue Buqun has already turned evil, and this day will come sooner or later, and the further the story goes, the crazier Yue Buqun becomes.

"Pingzhi, let them go..."

Ning Zhongze closed his eyes in pain. If Yue Buqun was killed by the Demon Cult, Ning Zhongze would definitely avenge him.

But it’s your own fault, so don’t blame others!
Xiao Zhao's face turned strange, thinking that "Gentleman Sword" was a hypocrite, but "Huashan Jade Girl" was indeed a wise and upright person.

Zhang Wuji wanted to explain something, but Xiao Zhao quickly pulled him away. What else could he say? The person was dead.
"Wait," Lin Yi suddenly stopped the two of them. He bowed and said, "This concerns the reputation of the Huashan Sect. I have an unwelcome request. I would like you to swear an oath not to disclose what happened today."

Yue Buqun fought against the Demon Cult and fell off a cliff and died, but he was still the Gentleman Sword, and the dead Gentleman Sword will not collapse.

On the contrary, if everyone in the martial arts world knew that Yue Buqun was a hypocrite and androgynous, not only would the Huashan Sect be disgraced, but Lin Yi, as his disciple and son-in-law, would also be affected.

Lin Yi didn't want to fight with others in the future. The other party started to curse, "Your father-in-law is a eunuch, your master is a eunuch..."

Zhang Wuji thought he was referring to Yue Buqun's sneak attack on him, so he quickly replied, "As it should be—I swear, I will never reveal what happened today, or I will die a miserable death."

Xiao Zhao pouted, but since Zhang Wuji had already made the oath, as a maid, she would certainly not object, so she swore along with him.

"Thank you." Lin Yi made way. Zhang Wuji returned the greeting, sighed, and left.

Ning Zhongze watched silently, feeling that Lin Yi was very considerate. She said calmly, "Pingzhi, let's bury your master's body."

"it is good."

Lin Yi paid attention to Ning Zhongze's reaction... Now that Yue Lingshan and he are still alive, there is no reason for Ning Zhongze to commit suicide, right?
His mind moved, and a few lines of small words appeared.

Yue Buqun died, but he did not gain any points.

"It seems that I can only gain points if I directly change the character's fate. Indirectly causing or indirectly influencing the character will not earn any points..."

Later, Lin Yi and Ning Zhongze returned with Yue Buqun's body and took over the Huashan Sect.

In the eyes of everyone in the Huashan Sect, Yue Buqun was a righteous and upright figure. Now that he was dead, the other disciples were heartbroken and wept bitterly.

But the Huashan Sect had traveled thousands of miles to reach Guangmingding, and even if their leader died, they couldn't just go back in disgrace.

Moreover, on the surface, Yue Buqun was knocked off a cliff and died by the people of the Demon Sect, and he must take revenge.

Lin Yi took the time to convert the 35 points he had just earned into combat power.

[Root Bone: 65 → 78]

[Evil-Repelling Sword Technique: 65 → 78]

[Nine Yang Manual: 31→40]

……

[Available points: 3 points]

Lin Yi stood up, exhaled, and slowly felt the results.

With this increase in points, the internal strength increased by more than 40%.

Moreover, he could sense that the 40-point Nine Yang Manual had already reached the highest level;
The 78-point sword technique to ward off evil spirits is even more advanced!
Compared with before, the combat power is a qualitative leap!

"Pingzhi!"

Seeing that he had finished regulating his breathing, Ning Zhongze called him to discuss the encirclement and suppression of the Demon Sect.

Today, the Wudang, Huashan, Kunlun, and Kongtong sects have come together to encircle and suppress the enemy on the mountain.

But the Huashan Sect was the most unlucky. They encountered the four of the Five Scattered Men and the Ruijin Camp, and of course they were completely defeated.

After listening to Ning Zhongze's story, Lin Yi said, "The Huashan Sect is severely damaged now. It is better to act together with the other sects - preferably a joint attack by the six major sects."

"That's exactly what I meant." Ning Zhongze nodded.

The nominal leader of the six major sects this time is Shaolin Master Kongzhi, but in reality the six major sects are independent of each other, and it is difficult for Master Kongzhi to give orders.

"Pingzhi, now that we are facing a powerful enemy, the Huashan Sect is without a leader and is in disarray."

Ning Zhongze raised his voice, almost facing everyone: "Although you joined the sect the latest, you are the most skilled and intelligent among all the disciples. You are also highly regarded by your master, so you will be the successor to the position of the head of the Huashan Sect."

The other Huashan disciples also echoed their agreement. They had all seen the strength that Lin Yi had shown in saving the place before. Moreover, Lin Yi was Yue Buqun's son-in-law, so the position of the leader belonged to him.

Lin Yi's strength suddenly increased dramatically. Although everyone in Huashan Sect was surprised, it was not unbelievable.

After all, there is Linghu Chong as an example.

After Linghu Chong came down from the Cliff of Regret, he immediately became a top-notch master in the martial arts world.

In the battle at Yaowang Temple, he displayed his divine power—although Yue Buqun disliked him and later expelled him from the sect...
