Swords emerge from Mount Hua, sweeping across the heavens from the world of Swordsman.

He pulled a thin book from his pocket; it was the melody of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" that he had asked Liu Zhengfeng for at the banquet earlier.

"System, exchange the sheet music for martial coins."

[Ding! The sheet music for "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" is an event item. Exchange it for 50 Martial Coins.]

Then, he also upgraded the Heavy Sword Technique and the Five Ultimate Divine Skills to the Great Mastery level, and the attribute panel changed.

With such attribute values, apart from Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis whose power is boundless yet whose cultivation technique has few drawbacks, there should be no one else who can make him wary!

Yue Zhuoqun smiled with satisfaction, got up and walked towards his junior sister who had been waiting for a long time, intending to have a deep conversation and vent his joy, but then he heard a soft and weak voice coming from outside the door.

"Is Uncle Yue here? It's me, Yilin."

Ning Zhongze's eyebrows furrowed, and she paused, her hand about to undress Yue Zhuoqun. She pinched his waist hard and asked warily:

"Senior brother~ What's going on with this little girl coming to see you in the middle of the night!"

"Ahem, I don't know either! Junior sister, please don't misunderstand, let me go ask."

Yue Zhuoqun quickly straightened his clothes, walked over and opened the door.

Yilin was standing not far away, her eyes showing unease and panic.

"Ahem! Yilin, why are you here so late? Is there something your master wants you to convey?"

"No...no, I came here on my own."

Yue Zhuoqun's body stiffened, and he was drenched in sweat!

Chapter 47: Invincible in the East

Yilin blushed, her heart filled with apprehension.

She knew it was inappropriate for her to come to see Yue Zhuoqun at this time, and she was afraid of upsetting him.

Just thinking about returning to Hengshan with my master tomorrow, and not knowing when I'll see him again, makes me feel empty inside.

She couldn't understand why she was experiencing this sudden and inexplicable emotion. Even meditating and chanting scriptures couldn't calm her down, so she risked being blamed by her master and came to him.

Yue Zhuoqun's eyelids twitched violently. Outside was the innocent and naive little nun, and inside was his junior sister with eyes like knives. He was in agony.

What's going on? How did Yilin, this little girl, fall for me?

Yue Zhuoqun did not consider himself a pure-hearted person. However, after replacing Yue Buqun, he had been working hard to develop Huashan. Apart from Ning Zhongze, he had never been attracted to any other woman.

Yilin's sudden infatuation gave him a bit of a headache.

His feelings for Yilin were more out of care for a junior from his senior brother's perspective, and there was no romantic feeling between them.

He sighed helplessly, opened the door fully, letting the candlelight inside illuminate the area outside, and then asked:

"Yilin, what brings you to see your martial uncle?"

Yi Lin's head buzzed for a moment. She simply wanted to see Yue Zhuoqun one more time, and she hadn't even thought of an excuse when she came.

When Yue Zhuoqun asked him that question, he had no idea how to answer. He couldn't very well reveal his true thoughts!

Her hands were clasped together, her head hung low in front of her chest, and she was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.

Just then, his arm touched something he was carrying in his pocket, his eyes lit up, and an excuse popped into his head.

She quickly reached into her bosom and pulled out two small medicine bottles: "I...I saw my uncle call a doctor this evening to treat Naqu Yang's injuries. These two bottles contain the Hengshan Sect's Tianxiang Duanxu Jiao and Baiyun Xiongdan Wan, both of which are miraculous medicines for treating injuries. They should be able to help Uncle Yue."

Yue Zhuoqun could tell that this was an explanation she had come up with in a hurry, but she didn't expose her. She reached out and took the two bottles of medicine, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, niece."

"Uncle Yue, will I ever see you again?" Seeing Yue Zhuoqun accept the elixir, she relaxed considerably and couldn't help but ask.

"After you return to Hengshan, focus on your training and don't think about anything else. You'll have the chance to meet again in the future."

"But...but I'm not very smart, and I can't seem to master martial arts."

"Uncle Yue, your martial arts are so amazing. If I can't learn them, can I go to Mount Hua to ask you for guidance?"

Yue Zhuoqun's heart skipped a beat. How could he dare to agree to let her come to Mount Hua to find him!

Once he agrees, I'm afraid that no sooner Yilin arrives at Mount Hua than Dingyi will chase after her, pointing his finger at him and cursing her!

"Wait for me here."

Yue Zhuoqun thought for a moment, then turned and went into the room. A moment later, he took out a book and handed it to her.

"This is a Hengshan School sword manual that I obtained by chance. It contains some lost sword moves. If you take it back and practice it well, your martial arts will definitely improve."

Even if there are things you don't understand, your master Dingyi can guide you; there's no need to travel all the way to Mount Hua to find me.

Yilin's eyes immediately reddened, filled with disappointment. She forced back her tears as she accepted the manual, saying, "Thank you, Uncle-Master."

Yue Zhuoqun sighed silently: "It's getting late, hurry back, or your master will come out looking for you."

"Oh, goodbye, Uncle-Master." Yilin looked him over carefully before turning away dejectedly.

Yue Zhuoqun shook his head, turned and went back into the house. Just as he closed the door, Ning Zhongze's voice came from inside:

"Oh! You've said goodbye to your junior disciple?"

“Junior sister, you heard the whole conversation just now, I didn’t overstep any boundaries.” Yue Zhuoqun’s face darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Having known each other for so long, this is the first time I've realized that my junior sister can speak in a sarcastic and sarcastic way.

"Hehe, my words weren't presumptuous, but we did exchange gifts~"

"Oh, so you dare to talk like that? Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson!"

"Come on, we'll see who teaches whom a lesson!"

Ning Zhongze, who was usually gentle and compliant, was unusually assertive and confronted Yue Zhuoqun tonight, leaving him unable to cope.

!

……

Those who practice martial arts all need to get up early for morning training.

Even with the system at his disposal, Yue Zhuoqun never stopped practicing. Every day, he would get up at the crack of dawn to cultivate the Purple Cloud Divine Skill with the help of the morning glow.

But today, he skipped work for the first time.

On the contrary, Ning Zhongze got up early as usual, like a victorious general.

He glanced at the listless Yue Zhuoqun, then strode out of the room with his head held high for his morning exercise.

Despite a night of hard work, I showed no signs of fatigue; on the contrary, my skin was rosy and I was full of energy!

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that Yue Zhuoqun regained some energy. He rubbed his aching lower back and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate the Purple Cloud Divine Skill.

After circulating his internal energy for several cycles, the fatigue was finally completely dispelled.

After getting out of bed and washing up, just as he was about to call Ning Zhongze to have some breakfast, he suddenly heard an angry shout from outside the door: "Yue Buqun, you come out here!"

"It is Abbess Dingyi."

Ning Zhongze glared at Yue Zhuoqun: "See? Even his master has come to settle scores with you."

"Junior sister, don't talk nonsense."

Yue Zhuoqun didn't think Ding Yi came because of what happened last night, since he hadn't done anything to Yi Lin.

Even if Dingyi really came for this matter, she wouldn't shout so loudly for the sake of the Hengshan Sect's reputation.

"Let's go out and take a look first."

The two stepped out of the room, where they found that many martial arts practitioners had already gathered.

After all, Liu Zhengfeng's retirement ceremony only ended yesterday, and most of the guests had not yet left.

Liu Zhengfeng, Tianmen, Tiansong, Yu Canghai, and others were all present.

Master Dingyi, leading the Hengshan disciples, stood in the center, her face full of anger. As soon as Yue Zhuoqun walked out, she immediately shouted, "Yue Zhuoqun, where is my disciple Yilin?"

Yue Zhuoqun was taken aback: "Shouldn't she be with you?"

"You dare say you didn't see her last night?"

“Last night, my junior sister Yilin saw me looking for a doctor to treat Qu Yang, and she did bring me some spiritual medicine from the Hengshan Sect, but I sent her back shortly afterward!”

"Nonsense, she didn't come home all night last night."

Yue Zhuoqun's eyelids twitched. Could this girl have run away alone after he rejected her last night?

Have you looked in the city?

"Senior Brother Yue, I sent my disciples to look for it early this morning, but we couldn't find it," Liu Zhengfeng said with a wry smile.

There's no Hengshan City, and Hengshan has a complex terrain; where could she go?
