Chapter 70

Yue Fangxing returned to the mountain alone and found all his junior brothers packing their bags, which puzzled him. He stopped one of the disciples and asked, only to learn that it was his father Yue Buqun's order, saying they were to go to Fujian by the command of the Left Alliance Leader.

Just as Yue Fangxing was about to ask more, he saw Yue Buqun come out and ask, "Xing'er, didn't you find anyone?" Seeing Yue Fangxing return alone, he was puzzled.

Yue Fangxing, seeing the crowd, found it inconvenient to speak and only said after entering the inner room, "Although I didn't find Master Buji, I met Granduncle Feng. He told us to rest assured and focus on healing the eldest brother. Granduncle Feng has been guiding the eldest brother in sword techniques these past few days and has even taught him the Nine Swords of Dugu."

Yue Buqun was startled upon hearing about Feng Qingyang. The Sword Sect disciples had just tried to seize the leadership, and he wondered if Feng Qingyang would support them. But when he heard that Linghu Chong had learned the Nine Swords of Dugu, he was overjoyed. Not only would Linghu Chong's sword skills greatly improve, but Feng Qingyang would not help the Sword Sect either, as Linghu Chong was now considered his disciple.

Thinking about this, Yue Buqun said, "We shouldn't delay. We need to heal Chong'er as soon as possible. I've already told everyone we need to go to Fujian and set out quickly."

Yue Fangxing was puzzled, "Go to Fujian? Why?" With Hua Mountain's strength and Feng Qingyang's support, there was no need to hide.

Yue Buqun explained, "Just now, a few members of the Songshan Sect conveyed the Left Alliance Leader's order, saying that the 'Evil-Dispelling Sword Manual' has caused another dispute. The Left Alliance Leader fears it might be seized by the Cult of Devils and has ordered the Five Mountains Sword Sect to go to Fujian and act accordingly." He glanced at Yue Fangxing, clearly blaming him for releasing the 'Evil-Dispelling Sword Manual' and causing so much trouble, now involving the Hua Mountain Sect.

Yue Fangxing smiled awkwardly, speechless. However, the most pressing matter was to heal Linghu Chong. Yue Buqun then called Ning Zhongze and, together with Yue Fangxing, entered Linghu Chong's room, where he was resting.

Yue Lingshan was also inside. Seeing the three enter, she said, "Father, please save the eldest brother. He seems... he seems to be in grave danger." She was about to cry. Although she and Linghu Chong had confirmed their feelings, they had to avoid suspicion, so even delivering meals was done by Lu Dayou, making their meetings even rarer. Today, seeing Linghu Chong, she was initially happy, but then he was suddenly injured and taken away, tortured to the point where his life was in danger.

Yue Fangxing was shocked and rushed forward, calling out, "Eldest brother?"

Linghu Chong, in a daze, opened his eyes slightly upon hearing someone call him. Seeing Yue Fangxing, he said, "Junior brother..."

Seeing Linghu Chong in this state, Yue Fangxing felt even more pain and said, "Brother, we will heal you now. Focus your mind and let Master help you circulate the Purple Star Divine Skill." Saying this, Yue Fangxing helped Linghu Chong into position. The three sat around him, channeling their true qi to suppress the six different types of true qi in his body.

Yue Fangxing, after ten years of hard training and over a year of practicing sword techniques by the sea, had very deep inner strength. Using the Mixed Yuan True Qi, he suppressed two types of true qi. He then used the yang-true qi from the 'Evil-Dispelling Sword Manual' to suppress another type with the help of his mother Ning Zhongze. Ning Zhongze suppressed one type of true qi on her own, and the remaining two were suppressed by Yue Buqun. His inner strength was extremely deep, and even after suppressing two types of true qi, he still had the power to help Linghu Chong circulate the Purple Star Divine Skill.

With the three suppressing the six different types of true qi in Linghu Chong's body, his meridians were suddenly empty, and the Purple Star True Qi became visible. He勉强 focused his mind and, with the help of Yue Buqun's true qi, circulated the Purple Star Divine Skill, strengthening this true qi.

Yue Buqun had practiced the Purple Star Divine Skill for decades, and his inner strength was immense. With his help, Linghu Chong's inner strength quickly recovered.

After about an hour and a half, all three were sweating profusely, indicating that their efforts had reached a deep level, and continuing would harm their bodies.

Seeing that Linghu Chong had recovered about 60% of his strength, enough to protect his vital organs, they slowly withdrew their true qi. First, Ning Zhongze, then Yue Fangxing, and finally Yue Buqun, gradually released the suppression of the six different types of true qi to prevent them from suddenly rushing around in Linghu Chong's body.

However, once the suppression was completely released, the six different types of true qi became active again, rushing around in Linghu Chong's body.

Linghu Chong could now control the Purple Star True Qi on his own. Whenever a type of true qi rushed to his vital organs, he would protect them and use the Purple Star True Qi to drive it away, preventing it from causing harm. This way, there was no major danger.

Feeling this, the three exhaled deeply, having successfully saved Linghu Chong. In the future, he could heal himself and strengthen the Purple Star True Qi, eventually eliminating the six different types of true qi and no longer suffering.

However, although the future looked promising, Linghu Chong would find it difficult to fight until the different types of true qi were eliminated. He could not control the six different types of true qi, and if he rashly used the Purple Star True Qi, he might lose his protection.

Yue Lingshan had been guarding the side to prevent any disturbances. Seeing the three finish, she asked, "Is the eldest brother better now?"

Yue Buqun replied, "Not so fast. He still needs to slowly eliminate the different types of true qi. Only then will he be completely healed. For now, he is out of danger."

Yue Lingshan said, "It's good that he's out of danger. The eldest brother is a lucky person, and he will naturally turn misfortune into fortune."

Everyone laughed at this. Who always has such good luck?

At this moment, a disciple came in to report, "A fat monk and a young nun have brought a dead body and are shouting outside." He had been there for a while, but Yue Lingshan, worried about disturbing the three as they healed Linghu Chong, had kept them outside.

Yue Fangxing laughed, "It must be Master Buji and Sister Yilin. Sister, you were right. The eldest brother is a lucky person, and even without meeting Granduncle Feng... Master Buji can still help." He originally wanted to say Granduncle Feng, but remembering the other disciples, he was vague, as Feng Qingyang did not want to reveal himself.

Yue Fangxing was actually surprised by the arrival of Master Buji. He didn't expect him to arrive early like the others. Had he misremembered the time? Or was Linghu Chong's luck so astonishing that someone always came to save him? But now it seemed that Master Buji's help was not needed.

Yue Buqun said, "Oh, Master Buji and Niece Yilin have arrived. We should welcome them." He guessed that Master Buji was shouting but not barging in because he was blocked by Feng Qingyang. Moreover, the Heng Mountain Sect did not send people to join the Songshan Sect in stirring up internal strife on Hua Mountain, which made him feel good and willing to be closer. He then asked the disciple to bring them in.

Before he finished speaking, a fat monk had already rushed into the room, "Ah! You're all here!" He scanned the room and pointed at Yue Fangxing, "Ling'er, this is the Linghu Chong you talked about? He does look like me."

Everyone was stunned. It was one thing to mistake the person, but to say Yue Fangxing looked like him was another. Yue Fangxing, although somewhat muscular from his training, was far from the fat and tall monk, who looked like an iron tower. Moreover, this comment could be misinterpreted, and the monk was indeed strange.

Yue Lingshan timidly appeared, "Father, he... he is the eldest brother Linghu Chong." She pointed to the middle, where Linghu Chong lay.

This made those who didn't know the situation even more surprised. They couldn't believe a nun would call a monk "father."

The fat monk chuckled, "You think about this Linghu Chong day and night. I thought he would be a great hero, but he's just a sickly, pale weakling. I don't want him as a son-in-law. Let's leave him and go."

Linghu Chong had been tormented by the six different types of true qi from the Six Freaks of Peach Valley and indeed looked pale and weak, but he had already improved significantly. However, in Master Buji's mouth, he was still a sickly, pale weakling.

Yue Lingshan, both embarrassed and angry, retorted, "Who thinks about him day and night? You... you're just talking nonsense. If you want to leave, go ahead. I don't... I don't..." She couldn't bring herself to say the words "I don't want him as a son-in-law."
