"This, what should we do?" Liu Zhengfeng frowned and looked worried.
Lin Yu smiled mysteriously." Junior Brother, I have a good idea. If Mount Song Sect asks if you colluded with the Demon Sect tomorrow, you will not admit it. After you settle down with your family, you can go into seclusion with your friend."”
" No, Brother Qu and I are truly friends. At most, I'll just die," Liu Zhengfeng said seriously, his face calm.
"Think about your family and disciples, then think about the Heng Mountain Sect! " Liu Zhengfeng, you're not alone. If you die, will Mount Song Sect let them go? Zuo Lengchan is bent on unifying the Five Peaks. This is the best opportunity for him to interfere with the Mount Heng Sect."”Lin Yu shouted angrily, his face filled with anger.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhengfeng came to a sudden realization. He no longer had the calm look from before. His face was filled with hesitation."This, this, sigh, things have come to this. Old Brother Qu Yang, I, Liu Zhengfeng, have let you down.”
Seeing Liu Zhengfeng nod, Lin Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Liu Zhengfeng would not budge. Even if Mr. Mo and Lin Yu worked together, they would only be able to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family. Liu Zhengfeng would end up like the original novel, dying together with Qu Yang.
"It's good that Senior Brother Liu thinks this way. I'll only ask Senior Brother Ling to be prepared just in case.”
" Thank you, Junior Brother Lin. I'll send someone to prepare it now." Liu Zhengfeng cupped his hands and thanked him.
"Then this little brother will take his leave."
........
The next morning, the Liu family was busy setting up. When it was almost noon, many guests had already arrived. Beggar's Sect's Deputy Sect Master Zhang Jin 'ao, Zheng Zhou City's Boxer Elder Xia, and his three sons-in-law, Elder Tie of Goddess Peak of the Three Gorge of Sichuan and Hubei, Sect Master Pan Hou of the Sea Sand Gang of the East Sea, the two friends of Qu Jiang, Divine Blade Bai Ke, Divine Brush Lu Xisi, and the others arrived one after another. Some of these people were familiar with each other, while others had never met each other due to their admiration. For a moment, the hall was filled with people introducing each other, causing a great commotion.
The people of Mount Tai Sect and Heng Mountain Sect were resting in the side hall, but Lin Yu didn't want to just wait, so he also went to the main hall to stroll around. Although Yue Buqun's name was 'Buqun', he was very fond of friends. Among the guests, there were many people who were unknown or had a bad reputation. As long as they came to talk to him, Yue Buqun would also talk and laugh with them, not putting on the airs of the Huashan Sect's sect master or being superior. Lin Yu saw this and only secretly admired Old Yue's brilliant tactics, knowing how to win people over.
By noon, most of the guests had arrived. The Liu family commanded the kitchen and servants to arrange more than 200 seats inside and outside. The disciples and servants of the Liu family respectfully invited the guests to sit. According to the status and reputation in the martial arts world, the sect leader of Mount Tai Sect, Taoist Tianmen, should be seated. However, since the Five Mountain Sword Sects had formed an alliance, Taoist Tianmen, Yue Buqun, and Nun Dingyi were half of the hosts, so it was inconvenient for them to sit. The seniors and famous figures all gave way, and no one was willing to sit.
Suddenly, two gunshots sounded outside the door, followed by the sound of drums and gongs. It was obvious that some government official had arrived outside the door. The crowd was stunned. They saw Liu Zhengfeng wearing a brand new long robe and rushing out of the inner hall. The heroes cheered. Liu Zhengfeng cupped his hands and walked out of the door. After a while, he respectfully accompanied an official in public clothes in.
When the official arrived in the hall, he didn't even look at the people present and took out a scroll. The official opened the scroll and said in a clear voice,""The imperial edict has arrived. Liu Zhifeng, listen to the imperial edict."
When the heroes heard this, their expressions changed. Who knew that Liu Zhengfeng was as calm as ever? He bent his knees and knelt down. He kowtowed three times to the official and said in a clear voice,"Your humble subject, Liu Zhengfeng, listens to the imperial decree. Long live my emperor.”
The official unrolled the scroll and read,"The emperor's edict: According to the report of the governor of Hunan Province, Liu Zhengfeng, a common man of Hengshan County, is eager for public affairs and likes righteousness. His achievements are in the fields of mulberry and mulberry. He is proficient in archery and riding. He can be used in great ways. He is really appointed as a general. He will serve the court in the future and live up to my expectations. I admire him.”
Liu Zhengfeng kowtowed again." I, Liu Zhengfeng, thank you for your kindness. Long live the Emperor."”He stood up and bowed to the official.""Thank you for your guidance, Lord Zhang." The official twirled his beard and smiled." Congratulations, General Liu. From now on, you and I will be officials of the same palace. Why do you need to be so polite?"”
The two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries. Liu Zhengfeng ordered his disciples to take out the gifts that they had prepared. After the official accepted them, he cupped his hands at Liu Zhengfeng and turned to leave. Liu Zhengfeng was all smiles as he walked her out of the door. The sound of gongs and gongs rang out as the Liu Residence sent them off with their ceremonial blunderbuss.
After this farce, none of the heroes present were in the mood to continue chatting. Seeing Liu Zhengfeng fawning over the powerful and openly bribing them, they looked down on him in their hearts. Some people could not help but reveal looks of disdain.
Liu Zhengfeng walked to the front of the group of heroes, his face full of joy as he invited everyone to take a seat. No one was willing to sit, so the armchair in the middle was left empty. Seeing that everyone was seated, the servants came up to serve food and wine. Mi Weiyi brought out a tea table with brocade on it. Xiang Danian was holding a golden basin with a diameter of one and a half feet. He placed it on the tea table and the basin was filled with clear water.
Liu Zhengfeng stood up and cupped his hands at everyone. He said in a clear voice,"Everyone has come from afar. This Liu is extremely grateful. Today, I invited everyone to be my witness. I, Liu, am going to wash my hands of the world today. From now on, I will not interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world. From now on, Liu Zhengfeng will withdraw from the martial arts world. If my disciples are willing to join another sect, they can do whatever they want. "In the future, when you come to Hengshan City, you will naturally still be my good friends. However, I will not interfere in the various grudges in the martial arts world.”As he spoke, he bowed again.
Everyone had their own thoughts. For a moment, the hall was silent. Under such circumstances, everyone should have congratulated Liu Zhengfeng and complimented him with words such as " a long life,"" a brave retirement,"" great wisdom and bravery," etc. However, with more than a thousand people gathered, no one said a word.
Liu Zhengfeng turned around and said in a clear voice,""Disciple Liu Zhengfeng was recruited by Master and taught martial arts. I am very ashamed that I was unable to expand the sect of Mount Heng. Fortunately, Senior Brother Mo was in charge of the sect. Liu Zhengfeng was mediocre, so it didn't matter if he was there or not. From now on, I will wash my hands of the past and focus on being an official. However, I will not teach martial arts to others in order to be promoted. As for the grudges and disputes in the martial world, Liu Zhengfeng will not interfere. If you go against my words, there will be such a sword." With a flip of his right hand, he pulled out a long sword from under his robe. With a twist of his hands, the sword's edge was broken into two. He broke the long sword and conveniently let the two broken swords fall down. With two soft sizzling sounds, the broken sword stabbed into the green brick.
Liu Zhengfeng had a smile on his face as he rolled up his sleeves. He reached out his hands and was about to put them into the basin. At this moment, a stern voice suddenly came from outside the door. Liu Zhengfeng raised his head and was about to stop when Lin Yu immediately shouted,"Senior Brother Liu, if you don't wait now, when will you? Hurry up and wash your hands.”
Liu Zhengfeng came to a sudden realization and hurriedly put his hand into the basin to wash it. When the man brought his men into the hall, Liu Zhengfeng had already taken a towel from the servant beside him and wiped his hands. When the man saw this scene, his expression immediately turned ugly. He immediately took out a five-colored banner decorated with pearls and gems and shouted,"Liu Zhengfeng, the flag of the alliance leader of the Five Mountains is here. Why don't you stop?”
Without waiting for Liu Zhengfeng to reply, Lin Yu stood up and said with a smile,""When Senior Brother Liu washed his hands just now, you didn't take out this flag.”
Liu Zhengfeng straightened his clothes and looked at the person with a smile on his face." So it's Martial Nephew Qianzhang Songshi of Mount Song Sect. I didn't know about it just now, so please don't blame me. I've already washed my hands in front of all of you and retired from Jianghu. I have nothing to do with the Five Mountain Sword Sect."”
Seeing this, Shi Dengda pointed at Lin Yu and Liu Zhengfeng and said,""Good, very good. The two of you, my Mount Song Sect will remember this. If you offend our Mount Song Sect, you won't have a good ending!”
" If you dare to stretch out your dog paw again, I'll chop you up." Hearing Shi Dengda's arrogant words, Lin Yu frowned and rushed in front of him. He circulated three layers of power and slapped his face fiercely. Everyone present was in an uproar as they looked at Lin Yu in disbelief.
Half of Shi Dengda's face instantly swelled up after receiving Lin Yu's slap. He looked at Lin Yu fiercely and said," Good, good, good. How dare you hit me, kid?"”After saying that, he looked at Liu Zhengfeng." Liu Zhengfeng, this person actually dared to commit murder in public. Isn't he bullying the Five Mountains Sect because we don't have anyone? Take him down!"”
Liu Zhengfeng smiled bitterly and did not say anything. Lin Yu slowly drew his sword and sneered at Shi Dengda.""It seems that you are not convinced by me. Alright, I will give you a chance. Draw your sword and spar with me.”
When Shi Dengda heard this, he couldn't help but take a few steps back and shout at the beam,""Martial Uncle, come and save me! Someone wants to bully my Five Mountain Sword Sect!”
Everyone quickly looked up and saw a yellow shadow flash. A man jumped down from the roof. He was in his forties, of medium build, and abnormally thin. He had a moustache on his upper lip. He was the fourth junior brother of Zuo Lengchan, the leader of Mount Song Sect.
