The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun

Page 452

Now Yue Buqun has entrusted Linghu Chong with the task of delivering the invitations.

After seeing Linghu Chong off, Jiang Ning headed towards Huaming Village. After checking on Liu Lie's health as usual, he returned to the mountain to continue preparing for the upcoming happy event.

……

"Master Ren, this is a letter from Headmaster Yue of the Huashan Sect. The letter mentions that Lin Pingzhi, a disciple of the Huashan Sect, wants to revitalize the Fuwei Escort Agency and wants to open up the escort business in Yunnan. He hopes that my Diancang Sect can help him."

The main hall of the Diancang School.

A middle-aged man was speaking to Ren Woxing, who was sitting in the main seat.

This person is none other than the leader of the Diancang Sect, who has already surrendered to Ren Woxing.

Ren Woxing was holding a letter in his hand, which was sent by Yue Buqun.

"hehe."

Ren Woxing laughed.

"The Huashan Sect is really making great strides these days; they're already thinking about developing businesses."

Ren Woxing said with a forced smile, leaving people unsure whether he was praising or mocking him.

The people below remained silent.

Ren Yingying then spoke up, "Father, the righteous path doesn't know about this place yet. We need to take advantage of this time to expand as quickly as possible, so that things won't be as smooth as they are now once we're discovered."

Ren Woxing nodded.

"Well, that's true."

Ren Woxing looked at everyone and asked, "What do you think we should do next?"

At this moment, a Miao man stepped forward and said, "Master, I suggest that the next step should be to take action against the Emei Sect."

Now that the Diancang Sect has been taken over, and Yunnan is within the sphere of influence of the Five Poisons Sect, it can be said that this place is already under their control. If they want to annex it again, they can only do so in other places.

Sichuan borders Yunnan, which is also within the sphere of activity of the Five Poisons Sect. Not only is it close in distance, but the Emei Sect is also a major righteous sect. If we could swallow the Emei Sect, it would greatly increase their strength and be a heavy blow to the righteous path.

Of course, more importantly, the friction between the Emei Sect and their Five Poisons Sect was quite serious some time ago, and this Miao people's move was to retaliate against the Emei Sect.

“Emei…”

Ren Woxing fell into deep thought, clearly hesitant.

It wasn't that he didn't want to take over Emei, but rather that Emei was different from Diancang and not so easy to conquer.

If we attack the Emei Sect now and not only fail to defeat them but also get bogged down in a protracted war, it will only expose their weaknesses further.

Ren Yingying then spoke up again, "Father, we can leave the Emei Sect alone for now and target other forces first."

"Oh?"

Ren Woxing looked at her.

So you have a goal now?

Ren Yingying nodded and said, "I have received the letter. The Beggar Clan elders who returned from Mount Hua a while ago told Jie Feng that Jie Feng is furious and wants to wage war against the Mount Hua Sect. Jie Feng has already given orders to all the branches. At that time, the Beggar Clan branches scattered in various places will send people to Mount Hua. We can take action against the Beggar Clan branches."

Upon hearing this news, Ren Woxing's first reaction was not joy, but surprise.

"You actually received this message?"

He didn't even know about this news, so how did Ren Yingying find out?

Ren Yingying remained calm and said, "I have an informant at the Beggars' Sect branch in Liuzhou Prefecture. The Liuzhou branch has already received a letter from the Beggars' Sect headquarters."

Inside player?

Ren Woxing was astonished.

He had never heard Ren Yingying mention it.

However, after the initial surprise, Ren Woxing was tempted.

The Beggars' Sect has never been an unknown gang; it is a large gang. It is no exaggeration to say that, in terms of numbers, the Beggars' Sect is the largest gang in the world.

It's unclear exactly how many people belong to the Beggars' Sect, but it's estimated to be at least several hundred thousand.

Although most of those who join the Beggars' Sect are ordinary people, it is undoubtedly a behemoth.

If Ren Woxing could take over the Beggars' Sect, it would greatly increase his power.

Ren Woxing asked, "When did you receive this news?"

Ren Yingying said, "Just yesterday."

Ren Woxing got up abruptly.

"Then let's do it this way."

Ren Woxing said to Ren Yingying, "Reply to your inside contact and have him cooperate with us to take over the Liuzhou branch. Then we can use the Liuzhou branch as a starting point to gradually swallow up the Beggars' Sect's branches in various places."

"Yes."

Ren Yingying bowed and withdrew.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Ren Woxing burst out laughing.

"God is really helping me."

If the Beggars' Sect were to engage in a bloody battle with the Huashan Sect, it would inevitably attract the attention of the righteous path. Who would know that he was secretly stealing peaches behind the scenes?

Listening to the conversation between Ren Woxing and his daughter, the leader of the Diancang Sect felt a chill in his heart.

Ren Woxing suddenly looked at him again.

"Sect Leader Wu, we'll need a few people from Diancang Sect to help us then."

The Diancang Sect leader, whose name was called, quickly cupped his hands and said, "Your orders are my command, and I dare not disobey."

Ren Woxing smiled with satisfaction.

"Sect Leader Wu is indeed a wise and shrewd person who knows how to seize opportunities."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Diancang Sect felt a pang of bitterness.

"Ugh."

Ren Woxing said again.

"The two Diancang Twin Swordsmen from your sect are quite skilled, but they are too rigid. They would rather die than join my Divine Sect. It's a pity they died."

Chapter 616: Are you itching for a fight again?

Hearing Ren Woxing's words, the Diancang Sect Leader felt more than bitter, but he could only suppress it and asked, "Sect Leader, how should I reply to Sect Leader Yue's letter?"

Ren Woxing waved his hand casually: "Whatever."

He couldn't be bothered with such trivial matters.

The leader of the Diancang Sect bowed and took his leave.

……

"Just leave it here."

Jiang Ning was directing the Huashan disciples to arrange the items.

These items are all needed for Lu Dayou and the Emei disciples' wedding in July. It's almost May now, and July is still a long way off, but most of them have already been purchased.

"okay."

Several Huashan disciples carried a large pile of lanterns into the storage room.

At that moment, Linghu Chong's figure came running from a distance.

"Junior brother, junior brother, Master wants to see you."

Jiang Ning nodded and said, "Okay, senior brother."

After bidding farewell to Linghu Chong, Jiang Ning arrived at the Suoyoubuwei Pavilion.

"Master."

"You came just in time."

Yue Buqun pointed to the desk.

"Two letters have arrived, one from the Beggars' Sect and one from the Diancang Sect. Take a look at them first."

Jiang Ning didn't say much upon hearing this, and picked up a letter from the table to read it.

This letter came from the Beggars' Sect.

The letter was simple: the Beggars' Sect had given them an ultimatum, demanding an explanation. If the explanation was not satisfactory, the Beggars' Sect would wage a full-scale war against the Huashan Sect.

As Jiang Ning flipped through the book, Yue Buqun's voice rang out.

"It seems the Beggars' Sect is going to war with us."

Jiang Ning didn't speak, and then looked at the contents of another letter. This letter was quite ordinary. The reply from the Diancang Sect Leader was just a response to the Huashan Sect's request to open a security escort agency. Although it was very polite, the overall attitude was one of rejection.

After reading the two letters, Jiang Ning turned to Yue Buqun and said.

“Master, since I started this Beggars’ Sect incident, let me go down the mountain and resolve it.”

"Did you notice anything wrong with the letter from the leader of the Diancang Sect?"

Yue Buqun ignored Jiang Ning's words and asked instead.

Jiang Ning said, "It seems that the Diancang Sect is now refusing to contact us."

"good."

Yue Buqun nodded and said, "When I wrote the letter, I mentioned that I would send your Uncle Feng to the Diancang Sect to discuss this matter, but he declined. It is clear that he does not want us to go. His attitude is quite obvious."

Yue Buqun frowned: "It seems that the Diancang Sect has really fallen."

Jiang Ning wasn't surprised; since Liu Zhengfeng had sent that letter, it meant it was genuine.

"It seems we should write to the Hengshan School as soon as possible to alert Master Mo."

Although the Hengshan Sect is more than 2,000 miles away from Yunnan, I don't know if Ren Woxing will take action against it. It would be better to write a letter to remind him.

As Yue Buqun was about to write a letter, Jiang Ning brought up the previous topic again.

"Master, please let me go down the mountain..."

He was interrupted before he could finish his words.

"If you have nothing to do, I'll assign you more tasks. It'll be a good opportunity for you to take over the sect's affairs ahead of time. Your junior brothers who haven't yet joined the sect still need someone to take care of their food, clothing, and property. There's no time for you to go down the mountain."

As he spoke, Yue Buqun glared at Jiang Ning.

"Are you itching to use this as an excuse to go down the mountain again?"

"..."

Jiang Ning was speechless.

Yue Buqun ignored him and waved his hand dismissively.

"go out."

This was the first time Yue Buqun had ever driven him away.

"Yes."

Jiang Ning had no choice but to bow and take his leave.

However, just as he stepped out of Jiangning, he ran into Linghu Chong who was coming over.

"Senior Brother, do you need to see Master for something?"

Jiang Ning was surprised.

Linghu Chong replied, "I'll ask Master if there's anything else we haven't bought yet."

Jiang Ning nodded, said nothing more, and stepped aside to brush past Linghu Chong.

Linghu Chong was walking in such a hurry that something fell out of his arms.
