The Villain's Counterattack

Three months passed in a flash. Under Lin Pingzhi's strict defense, Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan's Jade Girl Pure Heart Skill was finally perfected. Even the Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Skill could be successfully displayed with considerable power.

After learning, you have to practice. Lin Pingzhi mobilized the flying cavalry and Huashan inner disciples to besiege the two of them. From being at a disadvantage at the beginning to being evenly matched, he was able to win in the end, which shocked everyone.

Is this the method of combined attack?

Moreover, it was not only Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan who had a method of joint attack, but the flying cavalry also cooperated quite well in pairs, which made the Huashan Sect's disciples particularly jealous.

Lin Pingzhi slightly modified the Fanxiang Liangyi sword technique, transforming it into the Fanxiang Liangyi sword technique. He then passed it on to Liang Fa, Shi Daizi, Gao Genming, Lu Dayou, Tao Jun, and Ying Bailuo, who practiced it diligently in pairs, achieving surprisingly good results. Lin Pingzhi informed them in advance that this technique, adapted from a Huashan sword technique, had many imperfections and urged them to experiment with it themselves.

Although the sword and knife moves were okay, they were somewhat not smooth. The six second-rate masters pondered and experimented repeatedly, and actually came up with some tricks. Although it was nothing in Lin Pingzhi's eyes, it did have some meaning. Although the combined attack was not as powerful as the Liang Yi sword technique, it was already quite smooth.

Sword skills, combined attack techniques, internal strength, under the supervision of Lin Pingzhi, they lived a very fulfilling life every day. Although the master and mistress were not there, no one was lazy. After all, everyone was practicing hard, and it would not look good if you were the only one who was lazy. Besides, everyone was making progress, so if you didn't make progress, you would be left behind.

Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan's Jade Girl Pure Heart Skills have reached perfection, and they have actually undergone some unusual changes. Their improvement is all-round, with almost no obvious flaws. Linghu Chong has also learned the Heaven Net Skills, and his skills are no worse, and his lightness skills have improved a lot.

The only thing that made him unhappy was that Lin Pingzhi actually forced him to quit drinking temporarily during this period, but seeing his strength improving day by day, Linghu Chong could only endure it.

Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze returned from Mount Song, but their faces looked a little bad. After inspecting the strength of their disciples, they jumped up in shock. The eldest disciple had directly entered the middle level of the first-class, and his daughter had completely stabilized her first-class strength. The second-class disciples' strength improved rapidly, and they had also learned the Yin-Yang sword technique.

No! Now it should be called the Yin-Yang Sword Technique. If I use my second-rate strength, I won't be able to take them down in a short time.

Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan unleashed the Jade Maiden Pure Heart Sword Technique, and despite Yue Buqun's all-out effort, he was still outmatched. However, as Lin Pingzhi had said, this technique focused on defense and counterattacks, meaning they couldn't stop him if he tried to leave. Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze, working together, only managed to draw with their daughter and future son-in-law. The couple seemed quite relaxed, indicating they had truly mastered the technique.

"Good! Good! Good!" Yue Buqun said three good words in a row, and he was quite relieved in his heart. Zuo Lengchan's ambition was no longer concealed. If he wanted to keep the Huashan Sect, he would need the help of these disciples. With Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan joining forces, Zuo Lengchan probably couldn't take them down.

"Chong'er, come to my room tonight and I will teach you the introductory formula of the Zixia Magic Art. You can go to the Cliff of Regret to practice in the future." Yue Buqun's words made Linghu Chong excited. His master really recognized him, and his efforts for nearly half a year were not in vain.

"Pah!" Lin Pingzhi threw a small booklet in front of Yue Buqun. "This is the secret manual of the 'Yin-Yang Sword Technique' that I drafted. Many of your disciples have contributed greatly to this. They are all very good and promising talents. Mr. Yue has a very good eye."

"It's just that your method of training disciples is a little lacking." Lin Pingzhi's words made Yue Buqun tremble with anger, but this was an indisputable fact. These disciples had practiced with him for so many years, and most of them were only in the third rate. As a result, this kid had all entered the second rate in just a few months, and he was not the worst among the second rate.

"What do you want now?" Yue Buqun knew that this kid's show-off must be up to no good.

"Purple Cloud Divine Art." Lin Pingzhi saw what Yue Buqun was about to say, but interrupted him directly, saying, "Don't worry, I won't practice that thing. I'll just read it once, then carefully examine it to see if there are any inappropriate parts or areas that could be improved. Linghu Chong is your eldest disciple, yes, but I've also invested a lot of effort in him."

"You, you..." Yue Buqun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This kid didn't believe in himself, no!

Not only did he not believe in himself, he even suspected all the previous leaders of the Huashan Sect. However, this kid always did something surprising, so maybe he could really discover something.

"Forget it, Lin Pingzhi, today I want to hire you to be my Huashan martial arts master, are you willing?" Yue Buqun took advantage of the situation and did this directly. His meaning was very clear. If you agree to the "Purple Cloud Magical Art", I will show it to you. If you don't agree, then forget it.

Lin Pingzhi curled his lips and said, "You're saying that without this identity, I wouldn't help you train disciples. I accept this identity, but I can't make it public, otherwise I'll have some obstacles in exchanging secret manuals from other sects."

Yue Buqun couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, "You can't chew too much. You are ruining your own future. Well, it's up to you." Then he took out a token and threw it over.

It seems you really had this planned all along. Lin Pingzhi put the token away and said, "I won't let you suffer any loss. I'll secretly send you the Qingcheng Sect's 'Pine Wind Sword Technique' and 'Heart-Stirring Palm' manuals later, but they're not suitable for external use right now."

"How did you get the secret of Qingcheng Sect?" Yue Buqun was shocked.

"You knew in advance that Yu Canghai was going to provoke my Fuwei Escort Agency, how could we not know anything about it? When Yu Canghai left Shu, I secretly went to Qingcheng Sect." Lin Pingzhi said that they were even after a give and take.

"Forget it. You and Chong'er can go to the Cliff of Repentance together tomorrow. I will give Chong'er more guidance on his training. I will also go there from time to time." Yue Buqun really didn't believe that Lin Pingzhi could resist practicing the "Purple Cloud Divine Art". It can be said that in the entire martial arts world, apart from the "Yi Jin Jing", "Tai Chi Divine Art" and "Sunflower Manual", Yue Buqun could not think of any other internal skills more powerful than the "Purple Cloud Divine Art".

Fortunately, he didn't say it, otherwise Lin Pingzhi would definitely tell him that he would not practice the "Sunflower Manual" even if it was placed in front of him, because he really didn't like that thing.

"You can go to the Cliff of Repentance, but can you please not make your daughter run there three times a day? It's so embarrassing for me to show off my affection in front of a single guy like me all day long." Lin Pingzhi's words made Yue Buqun shake his head repeatedly, but he was happy about the relationship between Linghu Chong and his daughter.

At nightfall, Yue Buqun took out the "Purple Cloud Magic Art" and gave it directly to Lin Pingzhi, while he took Linghu Chong by the hand and dictated it to him word by word and helped him explain the ins and outs of it. However, the "Purple Cloud Magic Art" was much more complicated than ordinary internal skills, and it was impossible to master it without any basic knowledge.

But soon, Lin Pingzhi discovered something unusual and said something that made Yue Buqun feel incredible, "This copy of Zixia Magic Skill is incomplete. It's missing the content about gathering Qi."

Gathering Qi, condensing Qi, and transforming Qi. The last two stages of "Zixia Divine Art" are very advanced, but without the previous Qi gathering, the efficiency of practice has become much lower. Is it because it was not there originally, or was it lost due to some accident?
