Chapter 214 Shi Potian

"This Yue Buqun is really ambitious. He talks about re-electing the leader of the martial arts world for the sake of the martial arts world!"

"He clearly wants to be the leader of the martial arts world. Is there anyone in this world who has the strength to compete with him?"

As soon as we got down the mountain, someone spoke indignantly.

"Yes, his ambition is too big. Being the leader of the Five Mountains is obviously not enough. I didn't expect that Gentleman Sword would be so ambitious. He is even more ambitious than Zuo Lengchan."

Everyone looked worried.

Although they were extremely annoyed, they did not dare to show it too much and could only complain a few times at most.

Because they also know that with so many people here, there are no secrets.

There must be people who want to surrender to Yue Buqun. If they say too much, Yue Buqun will definitely be told.

If Yue Buqun holds a grudge against me by then, it would be more trouble than gain.

So they just complained a few words and then went their separate ways.

Even if you are really dissatisfied, you can only talk about it privately with someone you trust.

Everyone has different thoughts.

……

That night, some people gathered together.

They are all familiar sects, have good relations, and know each other well.

"What do you think about this matter?"

The leader asked.

"What else can we do? I think Yue Buqun has made up his mind. Can we change his mind?"

"As long as he wants to promote them one by one and hold a martial arts conference, I'm afraid no one will dare not go, right?"

The people below snorted, with a hint of dissatisfaction in their words.

"Alas, once he becomes the leader of the martial arts world, it would be easy for him to interfere in the internal affairs of our sects. It is unknown whether we will still be free by then!"

The others also responded dully.

"If I had known this, I should have agreed to join them and saved myself from being cut by a slow knife and boiled like a frog in warm water."

A big bearded man slammed the table, stood up and shouted angrily.

"If you had agreed at the beginning, you would have been a corpse by now, thrown in the wild, and you wouldn't have had the chance to talk here."

Someone sneered.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

The bearded man glared but didn't explode in the end. He slapped the table and sat down.

"Ugh!"

Hearing this, many people sighed.

"Given Yue Buqun's strength, even if we object, I'm afraid we won't be able to change the outcome. Besides, who dares to openly reject his proposal?"

The person who was speaking raised his head and looked at the people on both sides.

But no one dared to look him in the eye. Even the bearded man who was the angriest before turned his head away and ignored the other party's gaze.

Because what the other person said is true.

If they were asked to reject Yue Buqun in person, no one would dare to do so.

After so much time, they have already seen through each other's methods.

It's definitely not easy to get along with.

If you refuse in person, there will be no good outcome.

Therefore, no one wants to be the first to stand out.

"It seems that you all have no other ideas. If no one has any ideas, then I think there is no need to discuss it. I will just be the prey."

The leader sighed softly.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Someone looked up and asked.

"Unless there is another expert in the world who can rival Yue Buqun, I can fight him."

Someone suddenly said.

But he quickly lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "Even Dongfang Bubai is not his opponent. Who else in this world can stand shoulder to shoulder with him?"

"And even if Dongfang Bubai has the strength to fight, he is the leader of the Demon Cult and cannot be elected as the leader of the martial arts world."

"This is even more wishful thinking. Yue Buqun's martial arts are beyond comprehension. Let alone finding someone who can match him, even finding someone who can last more than ten moves from him is probably rare."

"Whether there is one or not, we have to give it a try. Since we can't change the martial arts conference, we should promote it as much as possible, hoping to find some hidden masters in this countryside. Maybe there is still some hope."

"Is there a Qilin hidden in the countryside? Now it seems that we can only give it a try."

……

Soon, news about the martial arts conference and the election of the martial arts leader spread throughout the world.

"This Yue Buqun has finally stopped hiding his ambitions. The position of the leader of the Five Mountains cannot satisfy him at all. He clearly wants to be the leader of the martial arts world. Why is he talking about nomination?"

"Is there anyone in the world who can rival him?"

Similar sounds were heard in restaurants everywhere.

"Brother, what you said is wrong. Leader Yue is a martial arts master. If he were to become the leader of the martial arts world, he would be able to defeat the Demon Cult in one fell swoop and restore the moral integrity of the martial arts world."

Some people expressed different opinions.

"Humph, we are the martial artists, we are free, what's the matter with a martial arts leader sitting on our heads?"

Some people said angrily.

"Then why don't you go to Huashan and tell it to Yue Buqun in person!"

Someone sneered.

The person who was being criticized was immediately speechless.

"unacceptable!"

Finally, I could only slap the table and sit down.

There has been controversy over this matter everywhere.

And in the martial arts world, a young man who looked very similar to Shi Zhongyu also heard about this.

"Grandpa Bai disappeared after he went to the Island of Heroes. The head of Huashan must know the inside story. Ah Xiu, don't worry, I will definitely help you find out the whereabouts of Grandpa Bai."

Shi Potian assured the girl beside him.

"Brother Shi, but I heard that dozens of sects went to Huashan together to ask questions, but they all failed, and many people were killed. If you go to Huashan, I'm afraid you won't be able to find out anything. What if you encounter danger?"

Bai Ah Xiu looked worried.

"Don't worry. Since Master Yue has the title of Gentleman Sword, I think he is a reasonable person. When the time comes, I will have a good talk with him. Maybe he will tell me the whereabouts of Grandpa Bai."

Shi Potian comforted.

“Is he really reasonable?”

Bai Ah Xiu was a little unsure.

After all, according to recent rumors in the martial arts world, Yue Buqun is a very controversial figure.

Some say it's good, some say it's bad.

But there are a few irrefutable facts.

That is, although Xuan Suzhuang and his wife were among the survivors of the Island of Heroes, these two people were obviously brought out by the other party. Therefore, it can be said that only Yue Buqun knows what happened on the Island of Heroes, and it is even directly related to Yue Buqun.

The second thing was the last time the heroes went to Mount Huashan to interrogate the people on the Island of Heroes, but they ended up being slaughtered.

It can be said that Mount Hua was stained with blood.

It brought great shock to the martial arts world.

Nature also makes people feel fearful.

"Since you have the title of Gentleman Sword and everyone praises you, you must be a gentleman. Don't worry. As for the killing of those people, I think it was because they were forced too hard. No matter what, Master Yue is the head of a sect. With so many people coming up the mountain to interrogate, conflicts will naturally break out. I will only ask respectfully."

Shi Potian comforted her. Seeing this, Bai Ah Xiu said no more.

"Then I'll go to Huashan with you."

"it is good!"

Shi Potian nodded in agreement.

……

half a month later.

Shi Potian and Bai Axiu came from afar.

"This is Huashan!"

"It's really soaring into the sky."

The two of them marveled.

Then started to climb the mountain.

"Who are you?"

As they approached the Jade Maiden Peak, the two were stopped by someone.

"Junior Shi Potian, this is my good friend Bai Ah Xiu, we are here to pay our respects to Senior Yue Buqun."

Although Shi Potian was illiterate, he was very polite.

Lu Dayou touched his head and said, "Me? Senior?"

Lu Dayou was a little confused. This was the first time he was called a senior, but he still said, "Not everyone can see my master."

"Please let this elder brother know that Miss Xiu is the granddaughter of Bai Zizai, the leader of the Snow Mountain Sect. We are here to inquire about the whereabouts of Grandpa Bai. Please let us meet Senior Yue."

"Are you also here for the matter of Knight Island?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Dayou frowned and looked unhappy. "My master has already made it very clear about the matter of Xiake Island. You should go back."

"Master Yue has not explained it clearly from the beginning to the end. Please go and inform him. No matter what, Gentleman Sword will not watch a young girl unable to find her grandfather, right?"

Shi Potian clasped his fists again and said.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Lu Dayou raised his eyebrows, "Those people wanted to force my master to be killed."

"We are not here to force Senior Yue. We are just here to seek truth from facts."

Shi Potian had a simple and honest smile on his face.

Seeing how persistent the two were, Lu Dayou's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he snorted, "Since you insist on asking, I'll help you inform him, but I'm not sure whether the master will see you."

"As long as this elder brother can inform me, I will be very grateful."

Shi Potian immediately showed a look of joy.

Not long after, Lu Dayou met Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan showed a hint of surprise when he heard that it was Shi Potian and Bai Axiu.

"Interesting, they didn't show up on the ship to Xiake Island, but they showed up now."

Ning Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Since they are two young people who miss their parents so much and are so filial, let them in."

"Yes!"

Lu Dayou was also stunned, then he reacted and ran out immediately.

Soon after……

Shi Potian and Bai Axiu were brought in.

"Strange, really strange."

Ning Yuan looked at Shi Potian's face with an expression of amazement.

Or pretending to be amazed.

Shi Potian was full of confusion and had no idea what Ning Yuan meant.

He could only touch his head and said with a smile: "Hello, Senior Yue. This is Miss Bai Axiu. We are..."

Before Shi Potian finished speaking, Ning Yuan raised his hand to stop him, "Don't say anything, I already know why you are here, and I also know about Miss Bai Axiu."

"You know me?"

Bai Ah Xiu looked surprised.

"Shi Zhongyu has been adopted as my adopted son. What he did in the Snow Mountain Sect did offend Miss Bai. When there is a chance in the future, I will definitely make him go to the Snow Mountain Sect to apologize."

Ning Yuan said with a smile.

"What, he became your adopted son? Senior, don't be fooled by his appearance."

Bai Ah Xiu suddenly became anxious and spoke quickly.

"Don't worry, although Shi Zhongyu has done many evil things, it is precisely because of this that I want to guide him onto the right path. Now his father Shi Qing is seriously injured, and the Shi family still needs him to carry on the family line, so I will not let him do evil again."

Ning Yuan smiled and comforted.

After hearing this, although Bai Ah Xiu was still dissatisfied, she could only nod and said, "No wonder the senior was surprised by Ah Gou's appearance. It turns out that he has seen Shi Zhongyu before."

"Does the stone jade you're talking about really look like me?"

Shi Potian touched his head and asked curiously.

Bai Ah Xiu shook her head. "Not similar, but exactly the same."

After saying that, Ah Xiu shook her head again, "But their personalities are completely different. That guy is a born bad guy."

"Ha ha……"

Ning Yuan stroked his beard and said nothing, "What do you want to ask about Bai Zizai?"

"Yes, my grandfather went to the Island of Heroes and never came back. Now only Sect Leader Yue has returned. I am really worried, so I had no choice but to go to Huashan to seek help from Sect Leader Yue. I hope Sect Leader Yue can help my daughter solve her doubts."

Bai Axiu said quickly.

Ning Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the hall was a little dull for a moment. After a moment, Ning Yuan spoke, "Logically speaking, I have said everything I could say at the beginning, but some people don't believe it."

"But today, seeing that you are filial, I will tell you something. On the Island of Heroes, everyone practiced magic, went astray, and killed each other. Your grandfather, Mr. Weide Bai Zizai, also went astray because of his understanding of magic. He claimed to be the best in the world, and attacked and killed others everywhere, but was eventually killed by someone else."

"So you don't need to look for Bai Zizai's whereabouts anymore. He has already returned to heaven."

Ning Yuan said calmly.

"What? How is this possible..."

Bai Ah Xiu's face turned pale and she fell backwards. Fortunately, Shi Potian was quick to catch her and said, "How could Grandpa die? How could Grandpa accidentally fire..."

Having said this, Bai Aixiu paused.

His expression became complicated.

Because this wasn’t the first time Bai Zizai had gone astray.

He was obsessed with it at the beginning and claimed himself to be the best in the world. Finally, he was awakened by Shi Potian by chance and went to the Island of Heroes to participate in the event.

Therefore, if Bai Zizai comprehends some profound secrets again, it is not impossible that his inner demons will be triggered again and he will become possessed.

"Then may I ask, Master Yue, who attacked and killed Grandpa Bai, and what kind of moves did they use?"

Shi Potian suddenly asked at this time.

Ning Yuan turned his head and looked at Shi Potian deeply, then said with a smile: "Why, you don't believe it?"

"No, I just have doubts in my heart. I am familiar with Grandpa Bai's martial arts, but I don't know how the conflict happened at that time?"

Shi Potian continued to ask.

Ning Yuan did not continue to tolerate it and said calmly: "If you want to know, you should go down and ask Bai Zizai and let him tell you in person how he died, instead of asking me."

"There are hundreds of people on Xiake Island. It's so chaotic. Yue doesn't have the energy to pay attention to other people."

Ning Yuan said indifferently, "I have made it clear enough. If there is nothing else, you can leave."

Ning Yuan picked up the teacup and said lightly.

Shi Potian obviously didn't want to miss such an opportunity and wanted to ask again.
