The heroes stood up and returned the greeting.
"Heroes, good friends, and young friends," Liu Zhengfeng said in a clear voice. Liu Zhengfeng was extremely grateful that everyone had come from afar.
Today, I have washed my hands of the underworld and will no longer ask about the affairs of Jianghu. I believe you all know the reason. Brother has already received the favor of the Imperial Court, becoming a small official.
As the saying goes: eat the king's salary, loyal to the king's affairs. In the Jianghu, loyalty is the most important thing, but in the official business of the country, one must abide by the law to repay the king's kindness. If there was a conflict between the two, Liu Zhengfeng would be put in a difficult position.
"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. I invited all of you here to be my witnesses.
"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.
The heroes had already expected him to say this, and they all thought,"He wants to be an official, but everyone has their own aspirations. Anyway, he didn't offend me. From now on, there's no such person in the martial arts world.”
Some of them thought,"This move is really damaging the glory of the Heng Mountain Sect. I think the sect master of Heng Mountain, Mr. Mo, is very angry, so he didn't come."”
Some people even thought,"The Five Mountains Sword Sect has been serving justice in Jianghu in recent years and is highly respected by people. But Liu Zhengfeng has done such a thing." He didn't dare to say anything in front of her, but he couldn't help but be cold behind her back.”
There were also people who were gloating and thought,"They say that the Five Mountain Sword Sect is a chivalrous sect. When they encounter a promotion and wealth, don't they kowtow to the officials?" Why did you mention the word 'chivalry'?"
Everyone had their own thoughts. For a moment, the hall was silent.
Mo Cang stood up and said," Congratulations to Second Master for returning to life. You've retired bravely. You're wise and brave." We are all friends invited by Second Master, so we will naturally support Second Master's choice. In fact, as long as one was chivalrous, one could also benefit the weak and the poor in the pugilistic world and the imperial court. It's just that we're doing it for the people, and Second Master is doing it for the country!”
"Senior Brother Yue, I…" Liu Zhengfeng's eyes were slightly wet as he said.
However, he was stopped by Mo Cangli with a hand gesture and shouted loudly. Before the sect leaders could respond, his disciples had already praised Mo Cangli for his outspoken words.
Hence, they could only congratulate Liu Zhengfeng.
Thinking back to Liu Zhengfeng's cause of death, there were only two reasons:
Firstly, in order to compose the 'Smiling Proud Jianghu Song' with Qu Yang, he was accused of colluding with the Demonic Sect Elder by the Mount Song Sect. Second, his youngest son was arrested by Boiling Bin.
As long as the above two contradictions were resolved, Liu Zhengfeng might not die.
However, his own disciples were too weak, and he was afraid that he would not be able to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family. After all, the martial arts skills of the Thirteen Grand Guardians of Mount Song Sect were on par with Yu Canghai. If his junior sister Ning Zhongze was here, she would be competent for this position.
What should he do? The mission given by the system was too difficult!
Oh! Right, the system! If you don't know anything, you can look for the system.
The Heroic System seemed to know what he was thinking and said,""The host can activate the monitoring function and use it to find the Demon Sect Elder Qu Yang. Think of a way to make Qu Yang secretly protect Liu Zhengfeng's family.”
A new memory appeared in Mo Cangli's mind. A television screen appeared in front of him. The screen showed the panoramic view of the Liu residence. Everything inside and outside the house was clearly visible.
The screen scrolled, and finally, he found a black-clothed man with a black mask on the roof of the hall.
The man in black was looking at Liu Zhengfeng with a concerned expression.
Mo Cang was certain that this masked man in black was Qu Yang.
Qu Yang and Xiang Wentian were known as the left and right messengers of the Demonic Sect. Even if his martial arts skills were not as good as Xiang Wentian's, they should not be much different. It should not be difficult for him to fight the other twelve of the Thirteen Gangsters alone, except for Zuo Lengchan.
The system didn't tell Mo Cangli how to get Qu Yang to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family.
However, Mo Cangli had an idea.
Mo Cang stood in front of Liu Zhengfeng and cupped his fists."Second Master, please wait. Before you wash your hands, please apologize to Second Master.”
After saying that, he bowed deeply to Liu Zhengfeng.
Liu Zhengfeng quickly moved aside to ask him the reason.
Mo Cangli started lying and said,""Not long ago, there was a rumor in the martial world that Second Master, as a hero of Mount Heng City, was actually in private with the Demon Sect Elder Qu Yang.”
When everyone heard this, they all turned pale with fright.
Liu Zhengfeng, however, remained calm.
Mo Cangli continued," To prove Second Master's innocence, I secretly observed him. Who knew that Second Master and Qu Yang only interacted with music. They played the zither and flute every day. Other than that, they had no other intentions."
I am deeply ashamed of this! However, I heard that Mount Song Sect has made some strange movements. Perhaps they will soon harm Second Master's family! Second Master's martial arts are strong and he can retreat safely, but I'm afraid the family will be in trouble. Please make plans as soon as possible!”
At the mention of Mount Song Sect, many people's expressions changed.
Liu Zhengfeng bowed deeply to Mo Cang and looked up at the roof. He then sighed,""Heaven above, if I don't have mercy, what can I do? Thank you for your kind reminder, Senior Brother Yue."
He was looking at where Qu Yang was hiding. His words were obviously hinting that Qu Yang would secretly protect his family.
Mo Cangli saw Qu Yang's figure on the roof turn into smoke and escape. He was really going to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family.
Mo Cangli secretly praised the two of them.
