The Villain's Counterattack

Chapter 52 Crisis and Response

There is a group of horse thieves in Huayin County, suspected to be an evil force outside the Songshan School. This news appeared in front of everyone, allowing Feng Buping and Cheng Buyou to truly understand the real situation of Huashan, and their faces were full of shock.

"Senior Brother Yue, you have suffered a lot over the years." Feng Buping bowed deeply, and Cheng Buyou followed closely to express his sincere admiration.

"This group of horse thieves is incredibly powerful. There isn't a single person below second-rate. Not only has Lu Bai from the Songshan School stayed, but Lu Lianrong from Hengshan is also still here. With him is a Taoist priest from Taishan, as well as Ding Mian and Tang Yinge from Songshan. If my guess is correct, they will soon attack Huashan." Lin Pingzhi revealed all the information.

"The arrival of Elders Feng Buping and Cheng Buyou in our sect was unexpected for the Songshan Sect. I suspect they were originally planning to use that bandit gang to strangle the Huashan Sect, and then support either Elders Feng Buping or Elder Cong Buqi to take power. Of these, Elder Cong Buqi is the most likely. However, with Elders Feng Buping and Cheng Buyou joining our sect, the bandits are no longer confident of taking over the Huashan Sect. The three guardians will undoubtedly intervene, and this has completely torn the relationship apart."

Feng Buping and Cheng Buyou looked at each other, but they were not worried about the safety of Huashan. To be honest, the Huashan Sect was now strong in both men and horses. As long as they were not defeated one by one, even a large-scale invasion by the Songshan Sect would not be able to do anything to them. After all, Uncle Feng, the pillar of stability, was still there, and the deterrence of this top master was self-evident.

"What do you think?" Yue Buqun turned his gaze to Lin Pingzhi. This kid has always been cunning and never plays by the rules. It's even more surprising that the information he has at the foot of Mount Hua is not as well-informed as Lin Pingzhi.

"Of course we have to strike first. Linghu Chong, Yue Lingshan and I will lead the cavalry to eliminate those horse thieves first, and then pretend to be them to invade Huashan and put on a show with you. By then, the three guardians of Songshan will surely come, and Lu Lianrong of Hengshan and the Taoist priests of Taishan will probably not be left behind. We will pretend to be defeated and eliminate the disciples of Songshan as we rush all the way down. If possible, we will also kill or injure one or two of Songshan guardians." Lin Pingzhi's proposal made Yue Buqun, Feng Buping and Cheng Buyou look nervous, but Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan were eager to try.

"You don't have to worry about the lack of strength of my cavalry. Although they are only second-rate, they have learned the Huashan Liangyi Sword Technique. When they work together, ordinary bottom-rate people may not be able to defeat them." As he said this, he glanced at Yue Lingshan. Ever since Yue Lingshan said that he had learned the Sword Manual of Exorcism, Lin Pingzhi disliked this girl more and more.

It's a shame that I had a good impression of her before reading the original novel, and I wanted to help her and Linghu Chong get together. Now? Humph, I'll find Linghu Chong a few concubines and let you taste the feeling of having your love stolen.

"By the way, Linghu Chong, your little nun and her father will be arriving soon. The Six Immortals of Peach Valley haven't left yet and are still at the foot of Mount Hua. I plan to use them all. Little Nun Yilin's father is a rare master, and his martial arts skills are not much worse than Mr. Yue's. If you don't use the Purple Cloud Divine Art, I don't think you'll be a match for him. Even if you do, it'll probably be a draw. That monk is just a drunken monk, but he does have some pretty impressive skills."

"Actually, you can consider it. Yue Lingshan will be the legal wife, and the little nun will be the concubine. As the eldest disciple of Huashan Sect and the future leader of Huashan, some sacrifices are still necessary. This is also to promote the relationship between Huashan and Hengshan, the Northern Mountain." Lin Pingzhi talked nonsense, leaving Linghu Chong speechless. Yue Lingshan glared at him fiercely and asked her parents for help.

Yue Buqun knew that the relationship between Linghu Chong and Yi Lin was not like that, but he had some grudges in his heart. Linghu Chong didn't mean it, but that didn't mean that the little nun Yi Lin didn't have that intention. It seemed that Tian Boguang and the Six Immortals of Taogu were sent by the little nun to capture Linghu Chong and bring him to see her. When did this little nun become so powerful?

These are seven first-rate masters, almost equal to the sum of all the first-rate masters in Huashan. In fact, it is not wrong to say so. There are only six first-rate masters in Huashan, because Feng Qingyang and Lin Pingzhi are among the top masters.

Next, everyone from the Huashan Sect witnessed what it meant when intelligence was paramount. Lin Pingzhi took out a map of a hundred miles around Huashan, which contained detailed information. Yue Buqun was shocked when he saw it. Fortunately, he was not an enemy, otherwise he would probably have died miserably.

Lin Pingzhi then marked all the individuals mentioned above, guessed their whereabouts based on the time, and arranged their subsequent actions. His explanations were well-reasoned, and his methods of guiding the opponents were incredible. Most unexpectedly, the Songshan Sect dispatched dozens of men. If the Huashan Sect had been using the same force as six months ago, these men would have been more than enough to annihilate them.

In fact, the main part is not complicated. Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan led ten flying cavalrymen, Yi Lin and Monk Bujie, and asked them to help kill the unsuspecting horse thieves. Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan's Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Skills were enough to ensure safety, and Monk Bujie was just an insurance.

Lin Pingzhi personally went to find Tian Boguang and the Six Immortals of Taogu, and invited them to play a game in the name of "Linghu Chong". The game was called "Officers and Soldiers Catching Thieves", and they pretended that the horse thieves were targeting all the people in Songshan Sect. The condition was that if "Linghu Chong" lost, he would go with them to see the little nun. If they lost, they would help "Linghu Chong" send a letter to the little nun, which would also allow them to have an explanation.

"Junior Sister Yi Lin and I are truly innocent." Linghu Chong swore to the heavens, looking at Yue Lingshan lovingly and saying, "Junior Sister, you are the only one in my heart."

Yue Lingshan said happily, "Me too."

Lin Pingzhi rubbed his arms and said, "Please don't mistake corny things for fun. Can't you see there are a bunch of elders around? I'm getting goosebumps."

"By the way, if that monk Bujie is unwilling to cooperate, just tell him that you know the whereabouts of his wife, and that guy will definitely surrender." Lin Pingzhi's words made Linghu Chong quite curious.

"Do you have any thoughts about Young Nun Yilin? You actually know everything about her so clearly." Yue Lingshan couldn't help but become curious.

Lin Pingzhi shook his head slightly and said, "Back then, in order to improve my strength, I searched far and wide for martial arts manuals. I went straight from Mount Hua to Mount Heng, but was turned away. So I gathered a lot of information from Mount Heng and got some of their outer sect skills. Then I accidentally discovered a little secret. That's all."

"Yilin's father was a genius. He was originally a butcher and had quite a bit of martial arts skills. But he fell in love with a beautiful nun and, to pursue her, he became a monk himself, saying that monks and nuns are one family. And he actually succeeded in getting her."

"Yilin's mother was a disciple of Mount Heng. After she married and had a daughter, she was expelled from the sect. Then, one day, Monk Bujie saw another woman and casually praised her. This made Yilin's mother extremely jealous. In a rage, she left them, leaving Monk Bujie unable to find them no matter how hard he tried."

"Although this method punishes Monk Bujie, it's also a punishment for herself and the little nun Yilin. She disguised herself as a deaf-mute old woman and took up residence in the Hengshan Sect, watching the little nun Yilin grow up and treating her very well, yet she refused to reveal her true identity. Her personality is also extremely strange, and she and Monk Bujie are truly a perfect match. If the need arises, you can just ask him to investigate. The most inconspicuous person in the Hengshan Sect who treats Yilin very well is his wife. He will figure it out himself."

Yue Lingshan has great confidence in Linghu Chong, but she is only concerned about Monk Bujie's martial arts skills: "Is he really that powerful, as good as my father?"

"It's still a little bit worse. After all, 'Purple Cloud Divine Art' is a rare secret manual of magical skills in the world. Although monk Bujie has acquired Buddhist martial arts, he can never compare to the rich heritage of Mount Hua." Lin Pingzhi hadn't said anything else, that is, the descendants are a little disappointing.
