At this time, everyone was having dinner in Shaolin Temple. Some sect leaders and elites were having vegetarian meals in the temple. Some lackeys of Jianghu Green Forest and small sects were eating and resting in the town at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain. The 200 elites of the Sun Moon Sect, except for Xiang Wentian, who was eating in Shaolin Temple, were camping at the mountainside of Shaolin Temple. It had been a long time since the martial arts world had such a grand gathering. This time, it was a rare gathering in the martial arts world. Besides the Five Mountain Sword Sect and the five major sects, the Sun Moon Sect and some of the wild people of the martial arts world had all come. They were all united against a common enemy.
Ling Huchong had heard Fang Zheng's words and his mindset had changed drastically. He did not know if the mindset he had always followed back then was wrong or if the mindset he had now was wrong. However, he felt that he had let Dongfang down. He should not have treated her like this back then. He had also killed people, many of whom were from the Five Mountain Sword Sect. At that time, he felt that these people deserved it. However, why did he care so much about Dongfang killing people? Many times, she killed people to save me. Even in the bamboo forest of Shaoshi Mountain, she only wanted to avenge me.
After the Heng Mountain Sect finished their vegetarian meal, they went back to their rooms to chant scriptures. Tian Boguang couldn't help but wander around. That person must be Invincible East. Why did she come to Shaolin Temple in disguise? He's still with Linghu Chong, that idiot still doesn't know his identity. It seems like I have to find a chance to tell him. As he spoke, he swaggered down the corridor as if he was strolling around his own home. At this moment, he heard a gust of cold wind. Before he could recover, a figure appeared in front of him. This person was Dongfang.
When Tian Boguang saw this, his legs immediately went soft. He actually said incoherently,"Dongfang..." Master Dongfang, this Linghu Chong…this Linghu. Dongfang didn't know what he was going to say. He smiled slightly and then fiddled with his hair." I say, Tian Boguang, you're really bold. How dare you reveal my identity? How should I punish you?"”
Tian Boguang quickly said," My little aunt, please do me a favor. Besides, I didn't leak anything. It seems that for the sake of Linghu Chong, for the sake of Yi Lin, can you let me go?"”Then, he smiled foolishly at Dongfang.
"Let you go? If I let you go, what if you spill the beans and expose my identity? I think I should…" As he spoke, he pretended to take out a silver needle. Tian Boguang seemed to have thought of something and calmed down a little. He puffed out his chest and said," I say, great beauty, if you make a move now, there will definitely be some movement. If the hundreds of people in Shaolin Temple are seen by others or Linghu Chong, then..." As he spoke, he smiled cunningly.
"Are you threatening me? Do you know what happens to those who threaten me?”Dongfang was still smiling, charming and moving.
"How would I dare to threaten you? I'm just reminding you out of kindness." Tian Boguang knew that Dongfang wouldn't hurt him. He was just scaring him.
"Tian Boguang, seriously, how's your saber technique?”At this moment, Dongfang's face was a little serious.
"Although I haven't mastered it thoroughly, I've still managed to learn it. I say, Cult Master Dongfang, this Five Tigers Gate Breaking Saber Technique is indeed powerful. I've only practiced it for a short while, but I've discovered that my power has increased greatly.”Tian Boguang completely relaxed.
"If you comprehend it properly, your power will also be able to rank among the top experts. But let me tell you now. No matter what happens in the Martial Arts Circle Convention tomorrow, you must protect Yi Lin at all times.”At this moment, Dongfang was a little ruthless.
"Tomorrow, we'll just discuss how to deal with Lin Pingzhi. Besides, don't we still have you, Master Dongfang? Is there any danger?" Tian Boguang slowly approached the east.
Dongfang glared at him, scaring Tian Boguang into stopping in his tracks. Dongfang said," You just have to do as I say. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble. Also, you're not allowed to reveal my identity to anyone else. Otherwise, I won't let you off either." After saying that, he slowly walked towards the direction of the hall.
Tian Boguang thought for a while and said," Master Dongfang, did you kill Ren Yingying?”
Dongfang Yi turned around and wanted to say something, but when the words reached his mouth, he smiled and said,"Do you want to live longer?" You have to control your mouth. There's a saying called 'disaster comes from the mouth.' You have to remember it. Then, he disappeared. Tian Boguang covered his mouth and didn't dare to put it down for a long time.
At this moment, in Shaolin Temple's Hall of Great Strength, Fangzheng was meditating with his eyes closed. He suddenly heard a sound outside the room and opened his eyes." Since there's an esteemed guest visiting, if you don't mind our simple monastery, please come over."
After a while, Dongfang slowly walked in and said,"Master, your internal energy is indeed profound. I was only a few dozen feet away from you, but you knew that I was outside the door."
At that moment, Fangzheng stood up and said," How can this old monk talk about having profound internal energy in front of Patron Dongfang? I'm just showing off in front of an expert. May I know why Patron Dongfang is here?”Dongfang smiled and took out a fan from his waist." Master, aren't you here alone to wait for Dongfang's arrival? How could Master Dongfang Bu Lai feel at ease?”
" The reason Dongfang came this time is firstly because Master Xie fulfilled his request to Dongfang outside Hangzhou that day. Secondly, I've investigated that tomorrow's Martial Arts Circle Convention will definitely cause trouble. There are many people from all walks of life who came this time, and it's difficult to guarantee that there aren't people who are trying to pass off fish eyes as pearls and have ulterior motives." Dongfang looked at Fangzheng and saw him smile without saying a word." Master, aren't you worried?”
Fangzheng bowed and said," This old monk has been worried about this matter recently. With the few of us, it's difficult for this old monk to guarantee that there won't be any complications. However, seeing Patron Dongfang come to our monastery today, this old monk is relieved. With Patron Dongfang here, I don't think it'll be so easy for someone to fish in troubled waters."
Dongfang said with a puzzled look," Aren't you afraid that I'm also here to destroy the Martial Arts Circle Convention?”
Fangzheng continued," Ever since you were willing to be imprisoned in Shaolin Temple, I know that the evil in your heart has mostly been eliminated. Although you are a member of the Demon Cult, you are also a person of character. When you became the leader of the Sun Moon Sect, nothing major happened in the martial arts world for ten years. Although the sects of the five mountains and your sect could not get along well, there were no major conflicts. Moreover, the people you care about the most are all in our temple. I think you will definitely lend a hand to this martial arts tournament.”
Dongfang thought," Yes, the two people I care about the most are in the temple. I hope nothing will happen to them. It seems that this old monk only knows how to recite scriptures, but he sees everything so clearly."
Fangzheng then said," Patron Dongfang, the old monk has something I don't know if I should say.”
Dongfang waved his hand and said,"Master, please say it."
"Tomorrow, we'll discuss how to deal with Lin Pingzhi. The heroes of Jianghu will definitely choose a leader of the Pugilistic World to command the heroes to attack Lin Pingzhi. In my opinion, Master Dongfang is the best candidate for this leader. In terms of martial arts and intelligence, Master Dongfang is the most suitable candidate."
Dongfang was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said," Master, you must be joking. Not to mention that I don't want to be the leader of the martial arts world, even if I wanted to, the heroes wouldn't agree. I'm the former leader of the Demon Cult, the great demon that everyone hates. Moreover, I'm a woman. How can the heroes of the martial arts world listen to a woman's orders? Most people think that I died at Black Wood Cliff, so how can I be the leader?"”
Fangzheng said," Everything in the past is like an illusion that has disappeared with the wind. How can you compare the benefactor today to the benefactor yesterday?”
" Don't say anymore. I won't be the Alliance Master. In my opinion, Master, Taoist Priest Chong Xu, or even Linghu Chong can be the Alliance Master. If there's anything you need, just do your best," Dongfang refused bluntly. Then, he said," I'm only here to protect the people I want to protect, not for the Alliance Master."
When Fangzheng saw this, he said," Since Patron is so determined, I won't force you. By the way, I'm useless. I haven't completely resolved the misunderstanding between Patron Linghu and you. Everything will depend on heaven's will in the future."
Dongfang said," It seems like we'll have to resolve the misunderstanding between us."
Fangzheng seemed to have thought of something and said," This old monk didn't know that you weren't able to prepare a room for you when you arrived. Why don't this old monk order someone to vacate a guest room for you?”
Dongfang said," There's no need to go through so much trouble. If Master deliberately does this for me, it will arouse suspicion. I can stay with Linghu Chong in the same room. I just need to trouble Master to add another bed."
"Of course, this old monk will order people to arrange it now."
" Dongfang will take his leave now. Master, take care." After saying that, he left. After Dongfang left, Fangzheng stroked his beard and said," The former number one demon of the pugilistic world is actually so infatuated. Amitabha!”
At night, the bright moon was in the sky. Linghu rushed back and pushed open the door to see Dongfang was already in the room. He looked at him and said," Brother Dong, where have you been all night? I couldn't find you anywhere?"
Dongfang looked at him and said,"Are you looking for me? Why did I hear that you were dragged to drink by heroes from various sects in the pugilistic world and only came back half drunk? Besides, didn't you say that you didn't drink anymore? You went back on your word so quickly?"
Ling Huchong looked helpless and said," You still dare to say that I was dragged out by the old man Zu Qianqiu and the others to drink and reminisce about the past. Then, many senior heroes who I don't know came to drink with me. I said I didn't drink, and they said I looked down on them for being arrogant. What do you think I can do?”
"Oh, so I wronged you? Ling Huchong, you must remember that you are not here to reminisce about old friends or make friends with Jianghu heroes. You are here to discuss important matters. Don't hang around with those incompetent people all day long. Do you know how many people in Jianghu are counting on you?”Dongfang was a little angry.
Linghu Chong took off his shoes and socks as he said,"Thank you for your reminder, Brother Dong. In fact, you have overestimated Linghu Chong. I am just a wastrel. I can't take on any big responsibilities." After saying that, he lay down and prepared to sleep. Dongfang shook his head and whispered to himself, You are underestimating yourself.
Linghu Chong lay on the bed and looked at the dim candlelight for a long time, unable to fall asleep. He repeatedly thought about what Fangzheng had said in the afternoon." Brother Dong, what is right and what is wrong? I can't tell if my thoughts back then were correct or if my current thoughts are correct.”
Dongfang was also lying down at this time, five or six meters away from Linghu Chong. He could vaguely see Linghu Chong's eyes flashing, and then he only replied," What right or wrong? Are you delirious in the middle of the night?"
Linghu Chong immediately sat up and said to Dongfang,"Do you know?" Invincible East and I." Dongfang's heart tightened when he heard that.”
Ling Huchong was still sitting and said," I heard Master Fangzheng's teachings this afternoon and felt that Miss Dongfang wasn't the cold-blooded murderer that the outside world had rumored. In fact, she killed many people to save me. Besides, she didn't really kill any good people."
"But she hurt your master and mistress? Didn't you hate him back then?" Dongfang asked.
Ling Huchong said lightly,"At that time, I was so angry that I lost my mind. Later on, I thought that with his martial arts skills at that time, if he wanted to kill my master and master's wife, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to escape. Since she showed mercy, it was only because of me. Thinking about it, she also had deep feelings for me."
Dongfang thought, Linghu Chong, you only understand me today.
Ling Huchong continued," Actually, I cared about him killing people. I cared about her being the Demonic Sect Leader because I had him in my heart. At that time, I only missed her. He killed people like I killed people. Moreover, the Demonic Sect was synonymous with evil in my mind. Since she was the Demonic Sect Leader, it broke her beauty in my heart. At that time, I couldn't accept all of this. However, if I didn't like her at that time, I wouldn't be so angry. I wouldn't care too much about an unrelated person killing people. However, the person I love the most has killed someone. How painful it is for me to do so. Under her provocation, I stabbed him…" Linghu Chong's tears had already begun to flicker after he finished speaking, and Dongfang could not calm down the excitement in his heart. Linghu Chong, your words today are worth my death.
Linghu Chong said,"But Yingying's death is related to her, I really don't know how to face her now."
Dongfang said," There are still many things waiting for you to deal with tomorrow. Go to bed early. I think the truth will come out one day." Linghu Chong nodded and lay down. Dongfang also thought of the past. He touched the scar on his left shoulder and smiled.
That night, a pair of lovers were destined to be together again.
