Chapter 213 Martial Arts Leader
"My fellow martial artists, you have all seen it. It's not that Yue is intolerant, nor is it that Yue is overbearing. It's that someone doesn't follow the rules of martial arts and actually wants to assassinate Yue's wife and children in front of the Tianxiong heroes."
Ning Yuan's face was serious, and he said in a resounding voice: "Such audacity and madness are rare in ancient and modern times. Today, Yue must take thunderous measures to completely deter this group of immoral and despicable villains. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."
Ning Yuan clasped his fists and spoke to everyone.
This has made some people even more uneasy.
But at this moment he didn't dare show the slightest sign of abnormality.
"Alliance Master Yue is right. No matter what he does, we support him."
"Yes, assassinating family members is a despicable act and must not be forgiven lightly."
"We must get to the bottom of this and find out the truth."
Everyone present expressed their support.
"Okay, since all of you agree, then I can rest assured."
Ning Yuan smiled and waved his hand, "Come here, bring all these people up to me."
Following Ning Yuan's order, the people who were recruited from the Five Mountains Sword Sect immediately brought a group of people onto the stage.
"Tell me, who ordered you to destroy Yue's reputation outside, and was so vicious as to harm my wife and children?"
Ning Yuan asked with a cold face.
No one speaks.
The captured person lowered his head and trembled.
However, several sect leaders who joined the crowd also looked pale.
But I kept comforting myself in my heart.
"They don't know me, so it shouldn't be known."
"Aren't you going to say yes?"
Ning Yuan snorted coldly, and someone immediately took action, stabbing a random person to death. "League leader, this person was caught poisoning the kitchen, and he died a worthy death."
"it is good."
Ning Yuan nodded slightly and continued: "You all know best what you have done. If anyone tells you what he knows first, Yue can spare your lives."
Ning Yuan looked around and said, "I am a man of my words. As the leader of the Five Mountains and the head of Huashan, my words are as good as gold. I will never go back on my words. I hope you will consider it carefully."
"Let me ask you again, who are the people who are instructing you, and what are they assigning you to do?"
"Whoever speaks first, I can spare his life. The number of spots is limited, first come first served."
Ning Yuan asked calmly.
The captured people looked at each other with hesitation on their faces.
But soon someone stood up, raised his head, and shouted: "Yue Buqun, stop pretending. You and I both have a grudge against each other for killing our relatives. No one ordered us to do so. We, the descendants of those whose relatives you killed, contacted each other spontaneously."
"We just want to expose your true face as a hypocrite. We just want to..."
Before he finished speaking, Ning Yuan gave a look, and the Five Mountains disciple beside him immediately drew his sword and stabbed the man to death, saying angrily: "You dare to slander the leader when you are about to die, you don't deserve to die!"
"I'll say it one last time. If anyone can point out the mastermind behind this, I will let him go. If he continues to be stubborn, then I will kill him."
Ning Yuan said expressionlessly.
Faced with this heavy atmosphere, some people have shown hesitation.
After all, we only have one life. Although everyone has a great hatred when they join, when they really face death, some people still have weak wills.
"Alliance Leader Yue, it seems that these people have united spontaneously, and there is no mastermind behind the scenes. I think we should just kill them directly."
Someone in the crowd suddenly spoke up.
As Ning Yuan looked over, the man lowered his head guiltily with a flattering look on his face.
Ning Yuan didn't say anything, but just raised the corners of his lips slightly and shifted his gaze to the people on the stage.
Faced with this kind of pressure and betrayal, someone finally couldn't help but stand up and make accusations.
"It was him. He was one of the masterminds behind the scenes. He was the one who asked us to ruin your reputation. He was the one who asked us to assassinate Ning Zhongze and his daughter. He even tried to find a way to control you and force you to reveal the secrets of Xiake Island."
One of the young men suddenly pointed at the person who had just spoken and shouted.
The man's face suddenly turned pale, and he trembled and shouted, "Slander, this is pure slander."
As one of them started recruiting workers, someone else soon stepped forward and told what he knew.
Ning Yuan used thundering means to catch everyone in one fell swoop.
"My fellow comrades, it seems that there are bad people among the people. Although I have been so generous, there are still people who are unwilling to believe what I say. They even secretly cooperate with the traitors and plot against me. If I don't take ruthless action today, I am afraid that such things will only happen again and again in the future."
"For the sake of peace in Huashan, I have no choice but to take drastic measures today."
"Come here, kill all these people."
Ning Yuan gave the order.
Many people present had slightly changed expressions.
At least dozens of people were arrested.
Although we are all from the underworld, we are used to seeing fighting and killing.
But such a bloody scene still makes me feel uncomfortable.
"Today is my daughter's full moon banquet. I don't want to see blood, but these people force me to do it."
Ning Yuan had a sad expression on his face. Everyone had different expressions, but they could only force a smile, "It's not Alliance Leader Yue's fault, it's just that these people are too cruel."
"You're right, it's all their fault."
Others expressed their opinions.
Ning Yuan nodded slightly and continued, "Now that these treacherous people have been cleared, it is Yue's fault for scaring you all. Now Yue is offering this wine to apologize to you all."
Ning Yuan picked up the wine glass and spoke loudly.
"Drink together, drink together."
Everyone quickly picked up their glasses.
"In light of what happened today, I suddenly had an idea. Since you are all here today, I would like to discuss something with you."
Ning Yuan suddenly changed the subject.
Everyone present was stunned, their minds were in turmoil, and they all had their own guesses.
After all, it must not be a trivial matter that can make Yue Buqun take it so seriously.
"May I ask what is the matter, Master Yue?"
Someone asked anxiously.
Some people even expressed their agreement without waiting for Ning Yuan to speak, saying flatteringly: "No matter what it is, since Alliance Leader Yue is the leader of the Five Mountains, it must be a good thing. We will definitely support it."
Everyone had different expressions, but they could only express their agreement.
"Thank you for your kindness. If that's the case, then I'll just speak frankly."
Ning Yuan smiled slightly, then his expression gradually became solemn, "As a blade of the righteous path, you can do something that is even worse than the evil path. This shows that there is a big problem with our righteous path."
"First, there were the righteous leaders like Zuo Lengchan who committed numerous evil deeds and destroyed their families. Then, there was Yu Canghai from the Qingcheng Sect who killed the entire family, leaving no one alive. It's clear that our martial arts world has lost its morality. No wonder even the demons despise us righteous people."
"In order to promote righteousness, I believe that we should cultivate new trends and rectify disciplines. Therefore, I have decided to re-organize the Wulin Conference and invite all heroes in the world to compete for the position of Wulin leader, so as to guide all heroes and factions back to the right path."
Ning Yuan's face was solemn. When they suddenly heard about electing a leader for the martial arts world, many people's faces suddenly changed.
Only then did I understand the other party's purpose.
"I wonder what you guys think?"
Ning Yuan asked with a smile.
"Well, this..."
Everyone present looked hesitant.
After all, this is no small matter.
Although it is an election of the leader of the martial arts world, people in the martial arts world have always respected strength, so it is easy to imagine who will be the leader of the martial arts world.
Once there is a leader in the martial arts world, all these sects will have to obey the leader.
No more freedom.
So naturally this made everyone a little hesitant.
If you become the leader, then the leader will have an excuse to interfere in the internal affairs of their sect. If he is dissatisfied with you, you can replace him at any time.
These all concern one's own rights and status, so it is naturally impossible to agree to them easily.
"Alliance Master Yue is already the best martial artist in the world. With Alliance Master Yue here, the demonic sect is keeping its tail between its legs. I think there is no need to choose a martial arts leader. When we return this time, we will immediately check whether there are any evildoers in the sect. Once confirmed, we will immediately clean up the mess. There is no need to go through so much trouble."
Someone forced a smile on his face and said nervously.
"That's right. For such a small matter, I don't think it's necessary to elect a martial arts leader."
"Yes, the leader of the martial arts world is usually chosen when the martial arts world is in great danger. He is a person with great strength and prestige to lead us to fight against the enemy. Where are there such enemies now?"
"With Alliance Leader Yue here, how could there be any enemy in this world that would require all of our factions to unite to deal with?"
Once one person spoke, the others followed suit with a smile.
Although they wanted to flatter Ning Yuan and curry favor with Huashan, they did not want to have another ancestor above their heads.
After all, trying to please someone is only a temporary humiliation for them, but once they have a leader in the martial arts world, they will have to serve him forever.
One is temporary, the other is permanent.
They are very clear about this point.
Therefore, even though they were all afraid of Ning Yuan and wanted to please him, none of them wanted him to become the leader of the martial arts world.
"Now the world is in ruins and people's hearts are dark. I think we can only use heavy hands to restore order. Therefore, I think that only by selecting a leader of the martial arts world can we truly go deep into the enemy and solve all the problems accumulated by various factions, so that my righteous path can be restored to righteousness and integrity, and there will be no place for filth to hide."
"I hope you will consider this matter carefully."
Ning Yuan glanced at everyone present.
But no one dared to look Ning Yuan in the eye. When their eyes met, they quickly lowered their heads and dodged.
Ning Yuan did not continue speaking.
The scene was a bit dull.
After a moment, someone laughed to ease the atmosphere. "Alliance Master Yue, what you said makes sense. I think we should really think about it carefully. Over the years, it is precisely because my righteous path has been in disarray that we have been bullied by the Demon Cult."
"If the righteous people of mine could work together, there would be no evil cult a long time ago."
"So what Alliance Leader Yue said makes sense. If we elect a leader for the martial arts world in a righteous way, we will have a leader and can unite as one. At the same time, we can resolve the grievances between the various factions and make the martial arts world harmonious."
"Master Chen is right."
Another person also stood up and said.
Ning Yuan gave him an approving look and nodded slightly.
After hearing this, everyone's faces became even uglier, but they didn't dare to show it at this moment. They could only force out an ugly smile and said, "If that's the case, then we'll go back and discuss it."
They didn't dare to refuse directly.
Especially since the first one to stick his head out will be shot, the first one to refuse will definitely be targeted by the other party. With the other party's strength, I'm afraid...
Therefore, no one wants to be the first to stand out.
"Well, I hope you can reply as soon as possible, because I plan to announce this matter in a month. At that time, everyone in the world is welcome to compete for the throne of leader."
Ning Yuan said with a smile.
But everyone was secretly complaining, "Now that you've said that, is there any room for easing the situation?"
Although everyone thought so in their hearts, no one dared to express it.
On the surface, they could only nod in agreement.
……
Late at night, people gradually came down the mountain.
Ning Zhongze came to Ning Yuan with a worried look on his face.
"Brother, there are people who don't even let go of newborn babies. These people are really too cruel."
Ning Zhongze said worriedly.
After all, there is no such thing as catching thieves the day before, but there is no such thing as guarding against thieves the day before.
In case there are any omissions, it is impossible for them to be meticulous in everything, and any slight omission may lead to irreparable consequences.
"Don't worry, Junior Sister. I have already figured out the details of these people. Soon, their power in various places will be eradicated. Things like today will never happen again."
I would rather comfort you.
"Brother, when will the cycle of revenge end? If you kill one, he will always have other relatives, which will only lead to more hatred."
Ning Zhongze sighed softly, "If this continues, I'm afraid the hatred will increase. By then, our Huashan..."
"Junior sister, I know what you mean, but there is no turning back on some things."
Ning Yuan shook his head, turned his back, and said, "You and I are both in the martial arts world, and we know very well what kind of turmoil will happen because of a martial art."
"Now the whole world is speculating that I have obtained peerless magic skills on the Island of Heroes, which is why I have the strength that is unrivaled in the world today. Magic skills are so appealing that no one would not want to obtain them."
"But they don't have the ability to go to Xiake Island anymore, but they want to know what is there and what I have gained. However, because of my strength, they dare not provoke me. They will definitely use various means in the future."
"What happened today was just a small test of their power. If I don't use thundering means to deter the villains, I'm afraid they will become even more rampant in the future."
"On the contrary, I took ruthless action today. Even if some people are still greedy, they should think carefully about the price they will pay if they fail."
"Then, Brother, your proposal to elect a leader for the martial arts world today will probably make people from other sects wary of you. What if they also..."
Ning Zhongze asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Junior Sister. I did all these things today, killing all these people in front of them, just to shock them and make them put their minds aside."
"After what I have done, they will never dare to target Huashan again."
Ning Yuan looked confident.
With his strength, he really doesn't need to worry about these things anymore.
Even if someone is really so bold as to do this, it would only add one more soul to the dead.
"Ugh."
Seeing this, Ning Zhongze sighed lightly and said no more.
