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

Page 367

Once the other party finds out that he once worked under Ren Yingying, let alone surrender, whether he can even leave with a whole corpse depends on the other party's mood.

"I can't believe I keep running into King Ning no matter where I go. It seems I'm just unlucky. Oh well, the martial world is too dangerous these days. The demonic path won't tolerate me, and the righteous path still has King Ning. I should just quit the martial world now, or I might end up with nothing but a whole corpse."

Ji Wushi had already decided to live in seclusion.

……

"Junior brother."

Linghu Chong hadn't even noticed Ji Wushi. At this moment, he asked in confusion, "If we want to go to Fuzhou, we can go directly there. Why come here?"

Linghu Chong was puzzled; he didn't understand why Jiang Ning would take a detour to Jiujiang Prefecture.

Jiang Ning replied, "I suddenly remembered there's something I haven't done yet."

Linghu Chong asked curiously, "What is it?"

The three of them happened to arrive at a restaurant.

"Senior Brother Jiang Ning, let's eat first."

Lin Pingzhi said.

Upon seeing that it was a restaurant, Linghu Chong's eyes lit up. He didn't even wait for Jiang Ning's reply and said, "Good, good, this is the place."

As soon as the three entered the restaurant, Linghu Chong called out, "Waiter! Waiter!"

Immediately, a waiter dressed as a waiter trotted over and asked with a smile, "What would you like to eat or drink, sir?"

Linghu Chong waved his hand, displaying a heroic spirit.

"Bring me all your signature dishes! And two jars of wine too!"

The waiter's eyes lit up, but before he could agree, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Just serve the food, no need for alcohol."

The waiter turned his head and saw that it was a handsome man speaking.

"Junior Brother Jiang Ning!"

Linghu Chong glared at him. "How can you come to a restaurant and not drink?"

Jiang Ning glanced at him: "Your master told you to drink less."

Upon hearing Yue Buqun's name, Linghu Chong's momentum weakened slightly, but he still said, "Master isn't here, so please let me have a little drink?"

Jiang Ning shook his head and refused.

"No."

Linghu Chong feigned anger: "I'm the senior brother, aren't you going to listen to me?"

Jiang Ning remained unresponsive.

Lin Pingzhi said weakly from the side, "Senior Brother, Master has already said that Senior Brother Jiang Ning will take over as the sect leader in the future. Logically speaking, he is the young sect leader now, so you should listen to him."

Linghu Chong glared at him, then turned to look at Jiang Ning, his expression changing instantly. He pleaded, "Junior Brother, can I just have a little?"

To get an extra sip of water, Linghu Chong even used the term "junior brother."

But Jiang Ning is heartless.

"No."

He then looked at the waiter.

"Just serve the food, no need for alcohol."

After saying that, Jiang Ning took out some loose silver and handed it over.

"Okay, sir."

Although forgoing the banquet would mean losing some income, the waiter didn't push the drink, as he could tell that Linghu Chong couldn't make the decision himself.

The waiter led the three to a private room and then left.

Watching the waiter leave, Linghu Chong let out a lament and looked at Jiang Ning.

"Junior brother, although Master told me to drink less after I came down the mountain, he didn't say I couldn't drink at all. You won't even let me touch a drop of alcohol. Isn't this trying to kill me?"

Jiang Ning frowned and said, "Drinking is bad for your health, Senior Brother."

When they were on the boat before, Linghu Chong made excuses to drink, and Jiang Ning didn't care. Now that they're ashore, no matter what Linghu Chong says, Jiang Ning won't let him drink.

"I feel uncomfortable if I don't drink."

Linghu Chong lay sprawled on the table like a limp rag doll.

Jiang Ning completely ignored it.

After a while.

Linghu Chong suddenly stood up, his expression serious.

"I need to pee, I'm going to relieve myself."

Before Linghu Chong could even leave the private room, a light, airy voice came from behind him.

"Senior Brother, if I find out you've been drinking, I'll tell Master when we get back to Mount Hua."

Linghu Chong's expression froze, then he turned around and said with a fawning smile, "I can hold it in a little longer."

Lin Pingzhi had never seen his usually carefree and unrestrained senior brother smile like this before.

Seeing that the other person had sat down again, Jiang Ning said seriously, "Senior Brother, wine is a poison that burns through the intestines, so it's best to drink less."

Linghu Chong nodded solemnly.

"Junior brother is right, wine is a poison that burns through the intestines. That is truly a wise saying. Hearing your words is better than reading ten years of books. It is a wake-up call, a wake-up call indeed!"

Linghu Chong's expression was resolute, but inwardly he was wailing.

I thought I could have a good drink since I wasn't with my master this time, but who knew Jiang Ning would be so cold and unapproachable.

Seeing Linghu Chong's enlightened expression, Lin Pingzhi lowered his head, his lips twitching slightly.

Soon, the food was served.

"That's right, Junior Brother."

Linghu Chong then remembered something and asked, "You still haven't said what you came to Jiujiang Prefecture for?"

Jiang Ning replied, "Among those people from all walks of life who surrounded my Mount Hua before, there was one called the White Dragon Gang, and their influence was in Jiujiang Prefecture."

Linghu Chong and Lin Pingzhi were taken aback by Jiang Ning's words.

"The White Dragon Gang?"

Linghu Chong looked at Jiang Ning.

"What do you mean, junior brother?"

Jiang Ning calmly said, "They are Ren Yingying's subordinates, and they all surrounded my Mount Hua together. Let's find the White Dragon Gang and ask who else is among the forces that surrounded Mount Hua back then."

Linghu Chong paused for a moment, then asked, "So, after finding out the details, what should the White Dragon Gang do?"

Jiang Ning remained calm and spoke softly.

"How? Massacre the White Dragon Gang."

Chapter 491: Infiltration (Thank you all for your support, here's an extra chapter.)

"A bloodbath against the White Dragon Gang?"

The box next door.

Ji Wushi's hand trembled as he ate, and his face turned a little pale.

Listen.

Listen!

Is this something a righteous person would say?

How could the words "bloodbath" come out of the mouth of a righteous disciple like you?

Driven by curiosity about whether Jiang Ning and the other two's arrival in Jiujiang Prefecture was indeed to take action against the White Dragon Gang as he had intended, Ji Wushi couldn't resist secretly going to the private room next to Jiang Ning's to eavesdrop on their conversation. Unexpectedly, he overheard such shocking words.

He had only witnessed Jiang Ning's methods when he was with the Black Wind Society, but now he heard about Jiang Ning's ruthlessness.

"I can't stay here, I have to run."

Ji Wushi dared not linger near Jiang Ning any longer; the murderous intent the other party displayed towards evil and heretical people terrified him.

……

"A bloodbath?"

Lin Pingzhi and Linghu Chong looked at each other in bewilderment.

What a strange word.

Neither Lin Pingzhi nor Linghu Chong offered any opinions.

After the meal, Linghu Chong asked, "Where is the White Dragon Gang?"

Jiang Ning stood up.

"Let's go to Poyang Lake."

……

The White Dragon Gang is a gang that lives by the water, and its headquarters are located on the banks of a river. The gang leader's surname is Shi.

White Dragon Gang's headquarters.

"Gang leader."

A man with a pointed face said to a burly man, "The Holy Maiden has given us orders to lead our entire gang to Pingding Prefecture. When are we going?"

Chief Shi said, "Give the order that only about a hundred people remain in the gang to maintain operations, and the rest will come with me to Pingding Prefecture."

"Yes, Gang Leader."

The sharp-faced man nodded and then said, "Chief, the Holy Maiden has ordered our entire gang to go to Pingding Prefecture. I heard that the Hai Sha Gang from Zhejiang East, the Pai Jiao from Xiangxi, and more than thirty other gangs, big and small, have all gone. Why is the Holy Maiden making such a big fuss? Could it be that..."

As everyone knows, the headquarters of the Sun Moon Sect, Blackwood Cliff, is located in Pingding Prefecture. And it is worth noting that Dongfang Bubai resides on Blackwood Cliff.

Now that Ren Yingying has sent them to Pingding Prefecture, the sharp-faced man guesses that Ren Woxing is about to fight Dongfang Bubai.

Chief Shi said sternly, "Don't make wild guesses. We will obey whatever the Holy Maiden orders."

"Yes Yes."

The sharp-faced man nodded repeatedly and then asked, "Chief, now that you're leaving with the gang, who will be left to guard the gang?"

After pondering for a while, Chief Shi said, "Now that only you and Hall Master Yi are left in the hall, I will leave you in the gang. Hall Master Yi will go with me."

"Yes."

Master Qi nodded.

"Hey."

At this moment, Chief Shi sighed.

"It's a pity that Hall Master Xu, Hall Master Zhang, and Hall Master Wang all died at the foot of Mount Hua, otherwise we wouldn't be so short-handed now."

Two years ago, Ren Yingying's numerous forces from all walks of life surrounded Mount Hua. Their White Dragon Gang also went, but suffered heavy casualties.

When the matter was mentioned to Chief Shi, Hall Master Qi said, "Chief, I heard that the Tianhe Gang was destroyed last year, and Chief Huang Bolu was killed. I don't know who killed him, but I heard it was Ning Yanwang who did it."

Chief Shi nodded: "I've heard about this matter as well."

Master Qi looked somewhat worried: "This King Ning is very vengeful. He even wiped out the Tianhe Gang. Will he come looking for trouble with us?"

The upheaval that occurred in the Tianhe Gang last year is well-known in the martial arts world. A gang of ten thousand people collapsed and disintegrated in just a few days, which is hard not to be concerned about among people in the martial arts world.

Later, many martial arts figures went to Kaifeng to see who had destroyed the Tianhe Gang. Some skilled investigators discovered that the Tianhe Gang had been destroyed by a mysterious person. Although the identity of that person was not revealed, everyone had a good idea.

There are only a handful of people in the entire martial arts world capable of doing this, and the fact that he could wipe out the Tianhe Gang by himself shows that he has a deep hatred for the Tianhe Gang and a strong desire for revenge. There is no need to speculate; everyone knows that it must have been him when they think about Jiang Ning's style of doing things.

After this news spread, the forces that had once surrounded Mount Hua began to feel insecure, fearing that they would be the next Tianhe Gang.
