\u201cXiao Qing,\u201d Han Changsheng said, serious, \u201cYou came at just the right time. I have something for you to do.\u201d<\/p>

Lu Qingqian snorted, \u201cIf you want me to wash your underwear, just say. You don\u2019t have to be so serious.\u201d<\/p>

\u201c. . .\u201d Han Changsheng facepalmed. \u201cNo, I have something serious.\u201d<\/p>

He paused. Afraid Lu Qingqian wouldn\u2019t believe it, he stressed, \u201cIt\u2019s big enough that it could change my martial arts.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cWhat is it?\u201d Lu Qingqian asked, his grave demeanor now reflecting Han Changsheng\u2019s.<\/p>

Han Changsheng thought it over then spoke, \u201cHelp me arrange a few things. The sooner, the better.\u201d<\/p>

He moved forward to whisper the arrangements he wanted into Lu Qingqian\u2019s ear.<\/p>

Lu Qingqian puffed out his cheeks, and his baby face became even rounder. \u201cWhy? Who is that person? How will Teacher handle him?\u201d<\/p>

\u201cHe\u2019s talented,\u201d Han Chengsheng said, \u201cYou mustn\u2019t underestimate him. I can\u2019t explain it in just a few words. He has powerful backing behind him, and I must win his trust. The first step toward my plan\u2013everything is for my Grand! Master! Plan! Don\u2019t ask anymore, just coordinate with me.\u201d<\/p>

Lu Qingqian seemed to understand and nodded, \u201cI\u2019ll arrange it tonight. Is there anything else Teacher wants me to do?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng waved his hand. \u201cDo this first!\u201d<\/p>

Lu Qingqiang asked, \u201cThen I can go first?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng nodded resolutely.<\/p>

Lu Qingqian took two steps, and Han Changsheng coughed. He turned his head, curious, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng laughed dryly, \u201cOnce you\u2019ve finished, if you have time, help me wash what\u2019s under the bed. You know, I\u2019ve been so busy planning my Grand~ Master~ Plan, there\u2019s no time for laundry. . .\u201d<\/p>

\u201c. . .\u201d Lu Qingqian laughed, shook his head, and quietly pushed his way out the door.<\/p>

Han Changsheng didn\u2019t sleep well that night, and his dreams were long and messy.<\/p>

He sat in a magnificent palace, and there were all kinds of delicacies spread out before him. He ate and drank to his heart\u2019s content. He sighed, this was a great day. In my next life, I must also be. . . cult leader!<\/em><\/p>

The dream changed. A group of righteous members shouting for his death surrounded him. He pulled out his sword, looking at them all with a fierce glare. Laozi did not do many evil things in his life. However, if he was labeled a demonic cult leader, they all must fight. He could not coexist with them.<\/p>

It changed again. The Dog Lord was meditating, practicing. He peeked through the dark, full of bad ideas. When the Dog Lord was about to breakthrough, he rushed forward and punched him. Later, he woke up beside the Dog Lord. He wasn\u2019t angry, opened his eyes, and smiled beautifully at him without distress.<\/p>

These the first half of his dreams that night. Later, he dreamed he was lying comfortably in the grass and lazing in the sun. An old man sighed and said, \u201cYou are too lazy. If you weren\u2019t, you would have this level of skill today.\u201d Then, the two guardians of Tianning and the four church owners appeared before him, one after another. They used various heinous methods to force him to practice martial arts.<\/p>

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn.<\/p>

Han Changsheng got up early, washed his face with cold water, and did his makeup. He made Li Jiulong\u2019s face look more spiritual and handsome. The eyebrows were lighter than usual, so he looked gentler. Satisfied with his results in the mirror, Han Changsheng went out.<\/p>

Next was morning exercise. Then, Han Changsheng found An Yuan. \u201cShidi, can you go with me down the mountain for a walk?\u201d<\/p>

An Yuan was shocked. \u201cWhy are you going down the hill? This afternoon, the sect head will teach you new moves.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cI didn\u2019t sleep well last night,\u201d Han Changsheng said, \u201cI have a lot of worries, and I don\u2019t know who to tell. So I want to go down the mountain and drive away the worries. We\u2019ll be back by noon. Is Shidi willing to go with me?\u201d<\/p>

No one was around. An Yuan smiled and said, \u201cWhy did Renjie call me Shidi again?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng almost forgot he and An Yuan were already calling each other prostitute*. . . Oh no, courtesy name*, and hurried to correct, \u201cAn Yuan.\u201d<\/p>

*Prostitute and courtesy names are homonyms in Chinese (bi\u01ceozi).<\/em><\/p>

An Yuan asked, \u201cYou\u2019re worried about the Yin and Yang?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng climbed up a pole. \u201cYes, I killed the Yin and Yang, this is what I as Yuehua Sect\u2019s disciple should do. But the sect heads and the elders are praising me to high heaven, I am flattered and surprised. . .\u201d<\/p>

An Yuan nodded and sighed, \u201cI understand.\u201d After that, he said, \u201cIf people are too outstanding, they feel lonely at the top.\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng: \u201c. . .\u201d<\/p>

An Yuan said, \u201cRenjie, please wait a moment. I\u2019ll go back to the house and change.\u201d<\/p>

Not a moment later, An Yuan reappeared with a straw hat and accompanied Han Changsheng down the mountain along a small path.<\/p>

As they walked, they talked about swordsmanship. An Yuan was very interested in swordsmanship, having a natural understanding, and had unique views on it. He said, \u201cThere are many people who criticize our Yuehua Sect\u2019s swordsmanship. They believe Yuehua\u2019s seventy-two style isn\u2019t swordsmanship at all. They say our Yuehua is useful only in battle, so it should not be ranked among the top ten sword sects. I don\u2019t think so, I\u2019ve always felt the Yuehua Sect\u2019s swordsmanship has an inexhaustible mystery, but many people cannot appreciate its meaning.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cThe disciples are also superficial, thinking the moves we\u2019ve learned are too basic. We have difficulty when faced with fancy maneuvers. We have to cooperate with many people, or we need deep internal forces to suppress opponents. Therefore, we cultivate internal strength but neglect the external ones. However, when I practiced recently, I felt these basic moves contained endless changes, especially the first nine styles, which are the most exquisite. In the beginning, the great founder passed down the rules. The first nine must be practiced for five years before anyone can learn others. It was only later that several sect heads and elders felt it was a waste of time and canceled the rule.\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng thought Yuehua Sect\u2019s first nine styles were no more than simple chopping, slashing, stabbing, and more of the same movements in order. Any new disciple who learned swordsmanship would know those moves. The moves were practiced for five years, which was simply to eat one\u2019s fill and support it. Learning martial arts was often the fastest and most savvy for young people. After five years, the golden time of learning martial arts often passed, and later on, they\u2019d learn slowly. The great founder of the Yuehua Sect set such a rule. Had he lost his mind?<\/p>

An Yuan said, \u201cActually, I think the highest attainment of swordsmanship is to respond to change with the constant. But today\u2019s people are too impetuous, and the fancier moves are always more powerful. I don\u2019t have the honor to see the heroic posture of Elder Lan Fang, but I heard the Elder Lan Fang uses the most basic moves, but he can dominate with one sword. When Elder Lan Fang was first introduced, he was unknown, and the first nine exercises lasted longer than other disciples, I think his past achievements are to prove our Yuehua Sect\u2019s swordsmanship is undefeated. I have recently practiced the first nine styles, and sect head has mentioned they want to teach me new swordsmanship. But I don\u2019t think the time has come, so I refused. It\u2019s just my understanding isn\u2019t high enough. Sometimes I feel I understand somewhat, but it gets worse.\u201d He sighed. \u201cIf only I was fortunate enough to get the guidance of Elder Lan Fang.\u201d<\/p>

This shocked Han Changsheng. The old guy who fought hand to hand against him the former night was Elder Lan Fang. As An Yuan said, Elder Lan Fang\u2019s sword was unpretentious. While he didn\u2019t use internal force to suppress him, he still couldn\u2019t fight back. Although they only fought once, Han Changsheng knew he was powerful, but he couldn\u2019t tell to what end. Was An Yuan right?<\/p>

An Yuan raised his hand and shook it in front of Han Changsheng\u2019s face. \u201cRenjie?\u201d<\/p>

Realizing he was distracted, Han Changsheng said, \u201cShi. . . An Yuan, did you join Yuehua Sect because you admired Elder Lan Fang?\u201d<\/p>

An Yuan smiled. \u201cThat\u2019s not the case. I only heard it after I entered Yuehua Sect. When my father was killed by the demonic cult, I was only seven years old. The sect head and my father were old acquaintances. He saw the younger me with no one to depend on and took me to the Yuehua Sect. The sect took care of me and even taught me martial arts. The sect head is a father to me.\u201d When he talked about the demonic cult, his face shifted, looking dignified. Staring into the distance with an unwavering gaze, he remembered the tragedy that had happened in his childhood.<\/p>

Han Changsheng curled his lips.<\/p>

\u201cAh!\u201d An Yuan screamed, falling to the ground. His straw hat tumbled away.<\/p>

\u201cWhat happened?\u201d Blinking, Han Changsheng rushed over to check on him.<\/p>

He saw An Yuan\u2019s foot caught in an animal trap. The nails of the trap stabbed into his ankle. Now, his feet were bloody. An Yuan\u2019s face paled, and there was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead: \u201cHow can there be such a thing here?\u201d He was just distracted and did not notice such a mechanism hidden in the grass, so he, unfortunately, took this hit.<\/p>

Prying open the trap, Han Changsheng inspected An Yuan. His feet were bloody, but the bones were not broken. He was afraid An Yuan couldn\u2019t walk.<\/p>

\u201cCan you stand up?\u201d Han Changsheng asked.<\/p>

Supported by Han Changsheng\u2019s shoulder, An Yuan tried to force himself up onto his injured foot. The pain made his face change again.<\/p>

Han Changsheng was puzzled. He vaguely noticed the breath of other people nearby, but he made a sound. He didn\u2019t notice the animal trap. Was it arranged by Lu Qingqian? This was ruthless.<\/p>

Han Changsheng, just about to pick An Yuan up, stopped and looked forward. Someone was close!<\/p>

\u201cSomeone\u2019s ahead!\u201d An Yuan said, seizing Han Changsheng\u2019s arm.<\/p>

Two men in black with swords in hand and masks over their faces appeared before them. They saw An Yuan and Han Changsheng then looked at each other. Their gazes shifted between Han Changsheng and An Yuan several times, their eyes sharp.<\/p>

An Yuan noticed the other party wasn\u2019t good. Coldly, he asked, \u201cWho are you? Why are you heading toward Yuehua Sect?\u201d<\/p>

Han Changsheng\u2019s heart, however, was delighted: they came!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
