The flower-lined path has never been swept for guests, but the humble gate is now opened for you.

As Nie Yun pulled his penis out, a thick, cloudy white fluid gushed out from Yue Lingshan’s already slightly swollen vagina, with a few strands of red mixed in with it, creating a scene that was both alluring and beautiful.

Although Nie Yun was not completely satisfied, he was mindful that this was Yue Lingshan’s first time experiencing true lovemaking and that her body was not yet ready for the test, so he did not stir up any more trouble and instead held her tightly in his arms.

He knew that a woman needed a man’s comfort even more after an orgasm, so he stroked and soothed her silky smooth body while whispering sweet nothings in her ear, occasionally adding a few inappropriate remarks.

“Shan’er, you’re so beautiful! It felt so good when you squeezed me when I inserted it just now, I really liked it!”

Yue Lingshan was so embarrassed that she buried her head in Nie Yun’s arms and didn’t dare to look up. She just gently punched him a few times with her fists.

Nie Yun chuckled and continued, “Remember what I just told you! Say it to your senior brother next time you’re in bed.”

The girl was already embarrassed by her previous lewd words, and now, hearing Nie Yun’s words, she blushed even more. She looked up at Nie Yun, rolled her eyes, and kissed him on the shoulder.

“Hehe…” Looking at the girl who looked like a cat with its fur standing on end, Nie Yun smiled and kissed her face a few more times, then said, “Alright, you’re tired too, go and rest.”

Yue Lingshan was already exhausted, and after hearing Nie Yun’s words, she closed her eyes in peace and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After Yue Lingshan fell asleep, Nie Yun gently got up and covered the girl with the blanket. Then he got dressed and pulled Linghu Chong out from under the bed.

At this moment, Linghu Chong was utterly despondent and numb. He closed his eyes tightly, his face wet with tears.

Nie Yun carried him on his back and went out the door.

He took Linghu Chong to a secluded corner in the back mountain and casually threw him on the ground.

Linghu Chong opened his eyes and glared at Nie Yun with hatred.

Seeing the look of hatred on his face, Nie Yun laughed and said, “Alright! I’ll let you hear a good show before you die. I’m being considerate of you. Besides, you’re a main character, so I’ll give you a glorious ending.”

After saying that, he leaped and ran away into the distance.

After a while, he returned to the same spot, but this time he was carrying another person on his back. Linghu Chong waited until he got closer and put the person down before realizing that it was Lao Denuo, an inner disciple who had already joined the sect with his own skills.

However, at this moment, Laudenau’s face was ashen, and he was on the verge of death.

Nie Yun clapped his hands and said to the two, “Lao Denuo harbored treacherous intentions and infiltrated Mount Hua to spy on our sect. Linghu Chong accidentally discovered this and followed him to investigate, but was discovered by Lao Denuo. The two fought to the death, and Linghu Chong was defeated and killed. Lao Denuo was then killed by Nie Yun, who arrived at the scene. How about that? Am I a decent screenwriter?”

The two exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with despair.

Nie Yun stopped talking and killed the two men with two swift sword strikes. He then inflicted multiple wounds on them and arranged the surrounding vegetation to create the illusion of a fierce battle between the two.

Then, with a heavy heart, he cut himself a few more times before rushing to the “You Suo Bu Wei Xuan” and knocking on the door, saying, “Master’s wife!”

********************

“The auspicious time has arrived. Please take your place, Sect Leader, and receive the inheritance.” With Liang Fa’s voice, Nie Yun knelt before the incense table and respectfully kowtowed.

Ning Zhongze stood solemnly to one side, holding a long sword and a scroll in his hands.

The events of the past month have been suffocating for her. First, Yue Buqun castrated himself to practice swordsmanship, went into a qi deviation, and became paralyzed.

Then Linghu Chong discovers that Lao Denuo is a spy who has infiltrated the Huashan Sect, and he is unfortunately killed while investigating.

If Nie Yun hadn’t arrived in time and killed Lao Denuo after a fierce battle, the Huashan Sect would likely have quickly become the possession of the mastermind behind the scenes.

“Zuo Lengchan, you schemed so meticulously to seize my Huashan’s foundation. Fortunately, Heaven protected you, and your plot failed. It’s just a pity about Chong’er…”

Thinking of Linghu Chong’s tragic death, Ning Zhongze felt a pang of grief.

That night, Nie Yun woke her up and she was shocked to see him covered in blood from a sword wound. When she heard him explain the cause of his injury, she was even more horrified.

Who would have thought that Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Five Mountains Sword Alliance, would send spies to his allies’ sects? But the Songshan Sect token on Lao Denuo’s body and the letters found in his room left her no choice but to believe it.

Ning Zhongze was not a weak woman. After learning about this, she made a decisive decision and buried the two bodies in a secluded place in the back mountain overnight with Nie Yun. The next day, she announced that an auspicious day would be chosen for Nie Yun to take over as the sect leader.

As for Linghu Chong and Lao Denuo’s matter, only the two of them and Yue Lingshan knew about it. The other disciples were told that the two had been sent down the mountain on business and would not be back for a long time.

“The Huashan Sect is now in dire straits, but fortunately there is still Yun’er.”

Looking at Nie Yun’s resolute and composed demeanor, and recalling how he held her in his arms and vowed to protect her and the Huashan Sect, Ning Zhongze felt a sense of comfort.

Seeing her beloved man about to take over as the leader of the Huashan Sect, Yue Lingshan knew she should remain serious, but she couldn’t help but smile.

“Senior Brother…” Recalling Nie Yun’s tenderness, Yue Lingshan’s face flushed, and her eyes became even more gentle.

After Nie Yun paid his respects to the patriarchs of Mount Hua, Ning Zhongze handed him the items in her hands and said solemnly, “Nie Yun, these are the sword of the Mount Hua sect leader and the manual of the Purple Cloud Divine Skill. You must take good care of them and not be negligent in the slightest.”

Nie Yun accepted the two items symbolizing his status as the leader of the Huashan Sect. Looking at Ning Zhongze, who was full of anticipation, he said loudly, “Disciple Nie Yun is unworthy. Today, I take over the position of leader of the Huashan Sect. In the future, I will definitely uphold the teachings of the ancestors and strive to make the Huashan Sect great and glorious.”

Ning Zhongze looked at Nie Yun, who was young but full of confidence, her eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded, saying, “Okay, I believe you.”

Nie Yun continued, “Although I have assumed the position of sect leader, I am well aware of my limited talent and experience. I humbly request that my master and mistress serve as elders of Mount Hua to guide me. Throughout Mount Hua, all those who see the elders are to be treated as if they were the sect leader. No one shall be disrespectful or negligent in the slightest. Anyone who violates this rule will have their martial arts skills revoked and be expelled from the sect.”

When he finished speaking, he turned to face the audience below, his expression stern.

The disciples looked respectful and said in unison, “We will obey the sect leader’s orders.”

Nie Yun turned around and looked at Ning Zhongze, who had a look of relief on her face. She blinked and said, “No matter what my status is, my heart for Master, cough, Master’s wife will never change.”

Ning Zhongze understood the meaning behind his words and secretly rolled her eyes at him.

Just then, someone outside the door suddenly shouted: “The Left Alliance Leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sect has ordered that Nie Yun is not allowed to assume the position of the Huashan Sect Leader.”

At the shouts, four people rushed over.

The first person was a tall, thin old man dressed in the Songshan Sect’s attire, holding the Five Mountains Sword Sect’s command flag, with a serious expression.

The three people behind him were all in their fifties or sixties, and the long swords they wore at their waists were all weapons of the Huashan Sect.

Ning Zhongze sneered and said, “So it’s Senior Brother Lu Bai of the Songshan Sect, the Crane Hand. May I ask what brings you here today?”

Lu Bai was taken aback. In the past, when he met Ning Zhongze, although they weren’t exactly friendly, they were always polite to each other. But today, she questioned his purpose as soon as he entered the door, without even offering him a seat or tea.

He glanced at everyone in the hall and, noticing that Yue Buqun was not there, asked, “Madam Yue, where is your husband, Sect Leader Yue?”

Ning Zhongze replied, “My husband is unwell and bedridden, so it is inconvenient for him to receive guests. Please speak frankly, Senior Brother Lu.”

Lu Bai chuckled coldly, “With Sect Leader Yue absent, it seems rather inappropriate for Madam Yue to arbitrarily pass the position of Sect Leader to someone else.”

As he spoke, he looked at the disciples below. He knew that there was a disciple of the Huashan Sect named Linghu Chong who had always been jealous of Nie Yun. Now that Nie Yun had become the sect leader, he didn’t believe that Linghu Chong could still sit still.

Unexpectedly, everyone in the hall remained silent, and no one spoke up in agreement with him.

Nie Yun smiled slightly, handed the Purple Cloud Divine Skill to Ning Zhongze to put away, and stepped forward with his sword in hand, saying, “What? Is Alliance Leader Zuo so bored that he even wants to interfere in the succession of my Huashan Sect’s leadership? Our Five Mountains Sword Sects are just an alliance, not a merger. Isn’t his hand reaching too far?”

His few words were blunt, causing Lu Bai and his group to change their expressions drastically.

Lu Bai said to Ning Zhongze, “Madam Yue, your Huashan Sect disciples are far too impolite, showing no respect whatsoever to Alliance Leader Zuo. Does your Huashan Sect intend to abandon the righteous path and collude with the demonic sect?”

In just a few words, he managed to slap a heavy label on Nie Yun and the Huashan Sect.

Ning Zhongze was furious when she heard this. She was about to speak when Nie Yun stopped her.

He scratched his ear with his little finger and said casually, “Hehe, Uncle Lu really knows how to label people. Does Alliance Leader Zuo really think he’s the leader of the righteous path, and that not listening to him is being an enemy of the righteous path of the martial arts world? I wonder where he places Master Fangzheng of Shaolin and Master Chongxu of Wudang? My Huashan Sect has its own leader, and we can pass the leadership on however we want. Alliance Leader Zuo, you’d be better off meditating and practicing your swordsmanship. I’ve just taken over Huashan today and have many affairs to attend to, so I won’t keep you for dinner. Someone, see the guest out.”

After saying that, he stood with his hands behind his back, as if to see the guest off.

Lu Bai had been famous for many years, but he never expected to be contradicted to his face by Nie Yun, a young man who was not even twenty years old. He was so angry that he trembled all over. He turned around and gave a wink to the people behind him.

A man with a fierce expression and sallow complexion stepped forward and shouted, “Junior Sister Ning, do you still recognize me, Feng Buping?”

Ning Zhongze frowned and said, “So it’s you. The people behind you must be Cong and Cheng. The three of you have long since severed ties with the Huashan Sect, so what are you doing here on Huashan?”

Feng Buping said, “Back then, your father used treacherous schemes to seize control of the Huashan Sect. Yue Buqun has been usurping the position of Huashan Sect leader for more than 20 years. Today, you actually want to pass it on to a mere brat? How can you face the ancestors of Huashan Sect?”

Ning Zhongze laughed angrily, “So that’s how it is! You three outcasts of the Sword Sect have actually colluded with outsiders to seize the position of sect leader. You really have a lot to do with the ancestors of Mount Hua! Today I want to see what kind of divine skills you have mastered in the past twenty years!”

He then drew his sword.

“Master’s wife, please don’t be angry. Let me handle this.”

Knowing the identity of the newcomer, Nie Yun naturally wouldn’t let Ning Zhongze make a move.

He said to the three disciples of the Sword Sect, “So you are seniors of the Sword Sect. Do you recognize this item?”

As he spoke, he flipped his right hand, revealing the Sword Sect token that Feng Qingyang had given him that day.

The three men’s expressions changed drastically upon seeing the object. Feng Buping was about to speak when Nie Yun raised his hand to stop him, saying, “You know this object is of great importance, and it would be inconvenient to discuss it here. If you trust me, please come with me into the inner hall for a talk.”

The three exchanged a glance, and Feng Buping cupped his hands to Lu Bai and said, “Please sit here for a moment, Senior Brother Lu. I’ll be right back.”

Lu Bai had originally expected a major battle between the two sides, but this unexpected turn of events made him uneasy. He quickly said, “Junior Brother Feng, why risk your life? With the support of our Songshan Sect, we can surely help the Sword Sect avenge its humiliation and regain control of Mount Hua…”

Before he could finish speaking, Feng Buping raised his hand to stop him, and then said, “Don’t worry, Senior Brother Lu, I have my own arrangements.” After saying that, he turned to Nie Yun and said, “Kid, let’s go.”

Nie Yun smiled slightly and turned to Ning Zhongze, saying, “Master’s wife, why don’t you come along too?”

Ning Zhongze nodded and instructed Liang Fa, “Liang Fa, serve tea to the guests. You and everyone else stay here and keep watch, be sure to be careful.”

After Liang Fa agreed, the three of them went into the inner hall together.

********************

As soon as the three sat down, Feng Buping asked impatiently, “Boy, where did you get that Sword Sect token in your hand?”

Ning Zhongze was taken aback and turned to look at Nie Yun.

Nie Yun sighed and recounted how he had practiced swordsmanship on the Cliff of Contemplation, encountered Feng Qingyang by chance, and been taught his unique skills.

To prove his point, he even demonstrated the Dugu Nine Swords taught to him by Feng Qingyang.

Seeing Nie Yun’s exquisite swordsmanship, Ning Zhongze and Feng Buping had no more doubts. Their expressions changed constantly as they exchanged a glance, and finally both let out a long sigh.

“I never imagined that Uncle Feng had been hiding on Mount Hua all this time, it’s really…” Ning Zhongze never expected that there would be such a peerless master in his sect, and that he had been hiding for decades without being discovered. He was indeed a senior master, unfathomable.

Feng Buping, however, did not forget the purpose of his visit to the mountain today. He asked, “You are telling me all this because you intend to take over Mount Hua as the successor of the Sword Sect?”

Ning Zhongze also looked at Nie Yun with a nervous expression.

Nie Yun shook his head and said, “Master’s wife, Uncle Feng, do you think that our Huashan Sect has suffered enough from this ideological conflict?”

Feng Buping fell silent as he recalled the tragic scene on Jade Maiden Peak years ago.

Nie Yun continued, “Back then, my Huashan Sect was full of talented people and was the most powerful of the Five Mountains Sword Sects. However, due to ideological disputes, we turned against each other, and countless elites of the sect perished. Now, we are being bullied and oppressed by the Songshan Sect. Moreover, this struggle was a conspiracy in itself…”

********************

In the main hall, Lu Bai felt increasingly uneasy. He said to Liang Fa, “Why haven’t you come back yet after so long? Could it be that you’ve set up a conspiracy to harm Junior Brother Feng?”

Cong Buqi and Cheng Buyou were also worried. Upon hearing this, they drew their swords and stood up. Cheng Buyou said to Liang Fa, “So that’s how it is. I knew there was something fishy going on here. I never imagined you could be so despicable. If anything happens to Senior Brother Feng today, I will make you pay for your crimes in blood!”

The disciples also drew their swords, and the two sides were tense, glaring at each other.

“Junior Brother Cong, Junior Brother Cheng, what are you doing? Stop it right now!”

When everyone turned around, they saw Feng Buping looking anxious at the inner gate, with Nie Yun and Ning Zhongze standing beside him.

Cong Buqi rushed over, grabbed Feng Buping and looked him up and down, and asked, “Senior brother, are you alright?”

“Stop talking nonsense! What could possibly be wrong with me!” After saying that, Feng Buping turned to Cheng Buyou and said, “Buyou, come and pay your respects to the leader of my Huashan Sect.”

“What?”

“Senior brother?”

“Senior Brother Feng, what makes you say that?”

Cong and Cheng were both shocked, and Lu Bai even jumped up.

Feng Buping gestured to Cong and Cheng to calm down, then said to Lu Bai in a polite but distant manner, “Senior Brother Lu, please tell Alliance Leader Zuo that our Huashan Sword Sect and Qi Sect have now turned hostility into friendship. Both sides are now Huashan disciples and jointly respect Nie Yun as our sect leader. We are grateful for Alliance Leader Zuo’s efforts in mediating this matter, and Huashan will surely repay you handsomely in the future.”

Although Lu Bai did not understand what had happened, he knew that his sect leader’s plan had not only completely failed, but had also greatly increased the strength of Mount Hua, and had even created enmity between the two sides. It was a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, losing both wife and army.

His face flushed red and then turned pale; he couldn’t believe that his carefully laid plan had turned out this way.

“Uncle Lu, our Huashan Sect is small and poor, so we won’t keep you for dinner. Please take care!” Nie Yun’s infuriating mouth flared up again.
