"Young man, isn't this... a bit too terrifying?"
Yue Lingzhu scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said:
"The main problem is that the battle was going too smoothly for us."
Perhaps it's because of my great fame.
Wherever they went, they fled in terror, so it was easy to kill them all.
However, it was after we stopped the war that I went to the emperor and had my position as Grand General revoked.
After all, my prestige is simply too great.
With a million-strong army in my hands, even the emperor, with his close ties to the government, wouldn't feel secure.
So I took the opportunity to explain to him that I wanted to go back to the mountain.
The emperor agreed and even gave me my eight thousand Ironblood Cavalry.
Furthermore, not only did they bestow Mount Hua upon our Mount Hua Sect, but I was also granted the title of Duke Zhenyue.
He is a first-rank duke, and a top-tier duke at that.
My father was also granted the title of Marquis, but this title was unique to him.
After my father died, it was taken back, but that was enough.
My mother was granted the title of First-Rank Imperial Lady and was bestowed with many gifts.
Given our mother's current status, when she goes to the county government office or the prefectural government office, she will have to be respectful to the county magistrate and other officials.
And then there's you. You're my older sister. My contributions are so great that even making me a king wouldn't be an exaggeration.
However, apart from the Zhu family bloodline, it is impossible for a prince to be alive.
Therefore, some of the credit has been given to you.
And you, my dear sister, are now a county lord. In the future, you will also have a fief, and the people of the county will share your food and clothing.
So, from today onwards, your status is different, understand?
At this moment, Ning Zhongze spoke up:
"That's right, Shan'er, from now on, you can't be as crazy as before."
You need to learn some things, and when you go back, you'll have your own mansion!
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan was completely stunned.
"I...I can have my own mansion?"
Yue Lingzhu: "That's right. Normally, you wouldn't have one, after all, you're just a county princess."
However, my contribution was too great, so the reward was slightly beyond what was expected!
In short, just accept it!
Yue Lingshan nodded blankly.
At this moment, Ning Zhongze smiled and said:
"It seems this child is startled!"
After speaking, Ning Zhongze looked at Yue Lingzhu and said:
"Lingzhu, have you found your father?"
Yue Lingzhu shook her head and said:
"Not yet, Father probably hasn't arrived here yet. But don't worry, once they get here, they won't escape my notice."
Also, Laudenau, who came with my older sister, went out to spread the word.
Mother, should I send someone to kill him?
Our situation is different from others; we don't need to compete for anything like the leader of the martial arts world.
Moreover, all we need to do is restore the Huashan Sect.
As for what Zuo Lengchan and his group want to do, that's none of our business. Besides, this guy isn't stupid enough to provoke us.
Unless he wants to launch a massive military offensive. So, there's no point in keeping this guy around.
As for butlers, we already have quite a few here.
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhongze nodded and said:
"You can make the decision about this!"
Yue Lingzhu pondered for a moment and said:
"Alright, let's wait until Dad arrives and let him decide."
Moreover, I also plan to take this opportunity to restore the Huashan Sword Sect to its original name and integrate it into the Taoist sect.
By the way, withdraw from the Five Mountains Sword Sects; as for their infighting, let them deal with it themselves!
Chapter 889 The Arrival of Yue Buqun and Speculation!
"What? Laudenau, what did you say? Ling Shan is missing?"
At this moment, inside the inn, Yue Buqun looked at Lao Denuo kneeling on the ground with a gloomy expression.
He exuded an extremely solemn and gloomy aura, as if he were about to devour someone at any moment.
Seeing this, the other disciples beside him couldn't help but shrink back.
After all, Yue Buqun looked absolutely terrifying at that moment.
At this moment, Laudenau's face turned very ugly, and he said helplessly:
"Master! This disciple truly did not expect this!"
After the disciple and junior sister arrived here, many of the inns in the city were already full.
Left with no other choice, the disciples could only search one by one, asking around to see if there were any vacant rooms.
As for junior sister, I have arranged for her to wait in one place for a while.
However, to his surprise, by the time the disciple went to look for him, it was already too late.
Junior Sister has disappeared, and the disciple has inquired for a long time without receiving any news.
This disciple truly... has no choice... Master, please forgive me!
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun took a deep breath and said:
"I'll spare you for now; we'll deal with the punishment after we find your junior sister."
Now, all of you, go out and find your junior sister.
Also, what's wrong with Chong'er? Weren't you two acting together before?
Laudenuo: "Master, when we were almost here, my eldest brother said he had something to do and left alone!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
"Good, good, good! My good disciple! At a time like this, you still dare to run out. Do you really think I don't know what you're doing?"
"Alright, you're going to find your junior sister again!"
Upon hearing this, everyone had no choice but to quickly leave.
However, after Laudenuo and the others left, Yue Buqun's originally gloomy expression instantly changed, becoming extremely calm.
However, there was still some worry in his eyes.
At this moment, Yue Buqun said in a low voice:
"When we first arrived here, there were rumors in the city that a distinguished person had come here."
The three thousand iron cavalry stationed outside were the soldiers escorting them.
Rumor has it that this person is the newly appointed Duke of Zhenyue in the current imperial court, who was formerly the Grand General Yue Hua!
If our previous guesses hold true, Yue Hua is very likely the Spirit Candle.
If it really is the Spirit Candle that has come, then Junior Sister should be here too.
So, it's highly likely that Shan'er was taken away by them.
Otherwise, with Shan'er's strength, she couldn't compare to those experts, but she was just an ordinary third-rate bandit.
They still couldn't do anything to Shan'er.
Moreover, no one else noticed anything, which means that Shan'er went there on her own.
Otherwise, once they take action, it will inevitably be discovered.
It seems I'll have to investigate tonight!
Just as Yue Buqun was pondering, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump!"
Yue Buqun looked towards the doorway, and at that moment, a slightly aged voice rang out.
"Yue San requests an audience with the head of the Huashan Sect!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun got up and opened the door.
An elderly man, around fifty years old and looking slightly aged, spoke up:
"Yue San greets Sect Leader Yue!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun asked with some confusion:
"Who are you, and what business do you have with me, Yue?"
Upon hearing this, the old man smiled and said:
"Sect Leader Yue, I have been ordered to invite you to my master's residence for a chat!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Buqun was about to refuse.
Then the old man took out a jade pendant and said:
