Chapter 108: Care
Jin Renfeng shook his head and touched his chest.
How could he be injured? He was just tired.
"Junior sister, I'm fine. It's just that my blood and energy are shaken. It's nothing serious." Jin Renfeng lied casually.
"Then I will stay and take care of Senior Brother too!" Yue Lingshan walked to Jin Renfeng, supported him, and said softly. "Senior Brother is not feeling well, and he cannot do without someone around.
Yue Buqun frowned. Yue Lingshan's behavior did not conform to his arrangement.
His plan was to let Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi get married so that he could use the Sword of Exorcism openly.
To achieve this, the prerequisite is to make Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi like each other.
Right now is an excellent opportunity.
As long as Yue Lingshan helps save Lin Zhennan and his wife, Lin Pingzhi will definitely develop feelings for Yue Lingshan.
And if Yue Lingshan didn't go, it would be a waste of this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Yue Buqun wanted to speak up and pull Yue Lingshan along, but when he glanced at Jin Renfeng next to him, he couldn't help but stop talking.
At the moment, he had no good excuse to persuade Yue Lingshan. If he persuaded her too much, it might cause his eldest disciple to become suspicious.
If they plan to join together at that time, it will be inconvenient for him to take action.
After much thought, Yue Buqun could only give up for the time being, hoping there would be another chance in the future.
. . . . . .
Everyone left, leaving only Jin Renfeng and Yue Lingshan.
"Junior sister, don't you always love to be in the hustle and bustle? Why do you insist on staying this time?" Jin Renfeng asked in confusion while walking on the street.
"Brother, how can I be at ease when you are unwell?"
Yue Lingshan said nonchalantly, playing with the ends of her hair with her fair hands.
Jin Renfeng was speechless.
The girl must have figured out that he was pretending to be sick.
But now that she has stayed, Jin Renfeng can't drive her away.
The two of them strolled along the street and booked an inn for Huashan's group to stay in.
As evening approached, Jin Renfeng remembered an important matter that was on his mind, and he said to Yue Lingshan,
"Junior sister, I have something else to do right now, so I have to leave first."
"You can go back to the inn and rest first. If you are bored, you can go to the room of the group of jade courtyards and look after the second junior brother. When I come back, we will go to meet up with the master together."
"No way, I want to come too!"
Yue Lingshan said excitedly.
This time when she went down the mountain, she and her senior brother experienced a lot of exciting and new things.
Now that she saw that her senior brother was doing something fun again, she naturally didn't want to be left behind.
Jin Renfeng shook his head and said seriously,
"This time we have to do some serious business, so it's a little inconvenient for Junior Sister!"
Yue Lingshan turned her delicate body and stood in front of Jin Renfeng.
"I don't care, you can't leave me behind!"
"If you abandon me and go away, I will go and complain to my father, saying that you bullied me!"
She glared at Jin Renfeng and threatened him.
Jin Renfeng shook his head and sighed.
He didn't care about Yue Lingshan's threat, but he also knew Yue Lingshan's character.
If he really makes up his mind about something, even ten oxen can't pull him back.
Even if he didn't let her follow him, Yue Lingshan would definitely follow him quietly.
"If you want to follow, then come on. Just be sure to protect yourself."
Helpless, Jin Renfeng had to nod in agreement.
Seeing Jin Renfeng's response, Yue Lingshan immediately smiled.
"Of course, I'm not a child anymore!"
. . . . . .
At night, among the mountains outside Hengshan City.
From time to time, the sounds of piano and flute could be heard in the originally silent forest.
The sound of the piano is peaceful and neutral, and it is even more moving when accompanied by the clear sound of the flute. The piano and flute sounds complement each other, as if they are asking and answering each other.
In the dim night, three figures could be vaguely seen, two tall and one short. The tall ones were two men and the short one was a woman.
Two men were sitting beside a big rock, one was playing the zither and the other was playing the flute, and the woman was standing beside the man playing the zither.
Floating clouds are moving, and soft moonlight is shining down.
The faces of the three people were revealed.
"It's Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng!"
Behind a rock, Yue Lingshan exclaimed.
“They are actually here!”
Jin Renfeng raised his finger, signaling Yue Lingshan to be quiet.
Yue Lingshan lowered her voice and said softly,
"Brother, how did you know they were here?"
Jin Renfeng chuckled.
"These two idiots played the piano and flute while being chased. I followed the sound of the piano and flute and found this place."
Yue Lingshan immediately realized that the eldest senior brother had strong internal strength and sharp ears and eyes, so he could naturally hear farther.
It is not uncommon to hear the subtle sound of the piano.
But she was curious again.
"Didn't the eldest brother say that he didn't want to care about Liu Zhengfeng anymore? Why did we come out to look for them right now?"
Jin Renfeng said calmly,
"I naturally don't want to interfere with Liu Zhengfeng, but look at the woman next to him!"
Yue Lingshan turned her head, and under the moonlight, the face of the short woman was clearly visible.
"It's Miss Qu Feiyan!"
Yue Lingshan was shocked.
"Why is she here?"
Jin Renfeng said softly,
"Don't you think Miss Qu's last name has something to do with Qu Yang?"
"Could it be possible?" Yue Lingshan looked at Qu Feiyan who was standing next to the Demon Cult elder Qu Yang with a look of surprise.
"I think the two of them should be close relatives." Jin Renfeng affirmed.
"Miss Qu saved Second Junior Brother's life. She is our Huashan Sect's benefactor. Now that Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng are being hunted down, I naturally have to come over to take care of them."
"I see."
Yue Lingshan nodded and understood why Jin Renfeng had quietly come here.
At the end of the song, Qu Yang said,
"Brother Liu, you and I both died here today because of fate. It's just that I didn't take action earlier, causing all your family members and disciples to die. I feel really uneasy."
Liu Zhengfeng continued: "Everyone will die, but if you have a close friend, you will die without regrets."
Qu Yang added: "Brother Liu, from what you said in your flute, you still have some regrets. Is it because your son was afraid of death when he was in danger, and humiliated your reputation?"
Liu Zhengfeng sighed and said, "Brother Qu guessed correctly. I spoiled Qin'er too much and didn't teach her enough. I didn't expect that she would be such a spineless person without any integrity." "I am deeply ashamed to have such a child."
Qu Yang consoled him,
"Your son is still young, so it's normal that he can't understand life and death. When he grows up, he will understand what loyalty is."
Liu Zhengfeng shook his head.
"Now that our hearts are broken, it's useless to think about it. Fortunately, the Golden Phoenix saved them and their children, so they should be able to live in peace."
"I left the family property to them. I have fulfilled my duties as a father and a husband. I have no regrets."
Qu Yang also sighed when he heard this.
Liu Zhengfeng said: "Why are you sighing, brother? Ah, yes, you must be worried about Feifei."
Qu Feiyandao,
"Grandpa, don't worry. Once you and Eunuch Liu have recovered from your injuries, we will go and kill all the villains of the Songshan Sect one by one and take revenge."
Just at this moment, a long laugh was heard from behind the mountain wall.
Before the laughter died down, two dark figures jumped out from behind the cliff.
A green light flashed, and two people stood in front of Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng, holding long swords.
They were Fei Bin, the Great Songyang Hand, and Ding Mian, the Pagoda-Holding Hand of the Songshan School.
Raising his sword, Fei Bin sneered and said, "What a big mouth that girl has. She wants to kill all the people of Songshan Sect. Not to mention now, even if the two of them were intact, they couldn't do it!"
Liu Zhengfeng stood up reluctantly and said, "Fei Bin, I and Brother Qu have been hit by your Songshan School's palm power. Our lives are imminent. What else do you want to do?"
Fei Bin laughed loudly and said proudly: "This girl said she wanted to kill us all, so my brother and I are here to kill us all! Girl, come here first and die!"
Liu Zhengfeng said, "Fei, you are also a well-known figure in the famous and upright sects. Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng are in your hands today. You can kill them or chop them up, and you will die without regrets. How can you be a hero if you bully a little girl? Feifei, leave now!"
Qu Feiyan said: "I will die together with my grandfather and Eunuch Liu. I will never be alone."
Liu Zhengfeng said: "Let's go, let's go! What does our adults' affairs have to do with your child?"
Qu Feiyan said, "I won't leave!" She drew out two daggers from her waist and rushed over to block Liu Zhengfeng.
"Unless I die today, I will never let him hurt Grandpa and Eunuch Liu."
"What a tough girl! I will do as you wish and kill you first, then I will kill your grandfather."
Fei Bin shouted, and as soon as he finished speaking, he thrust out the sword in his hand and went straight towards Qu Feiyan.
Qu Feiyan blocked with the short sword in his left hand and held out the sword in his right hand. Fei Bin smiled and slashed with the long sword in his hand, cutting on the short sword in Qu Feiyan's hand.
Under the fierce force, Qu Feiyan could no longer hold the dagger in his hand and it flew out of his hand immediately.
Fei Bin's sword was already pointed at her throat. He smiled at Qu Yang and said, "Elder Qu, I will first blind your granddaughter's left eye, then cut off her nose, and then her two ears..."
Qu Feiyan screamed, leaped forward, and rushed towards the sword, intending to commit suicide.
Fei Bin kicked her to the ground and stabbed her eyes with his sword.
Just as Qu Feiyan's eyes were about to be stabbed, at the critical moment, a white light flew from a distance and hit the sword in Fei Bin's hand.
when--
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded.
A powerful force hit Fei Bin's hand, knocking the sword in his hand away.
Fei Bin's arms trembled as he looked towards the source of the white light and shouted,
"who!"
Footsteps were heard, and two figures, a man and a woman, walked out in the moonlight.
When they saw the person coming, Ding Mian and Fei Bin's pupils suddenly shrank.
"It's you again!" Fei Bin narrowed his eyes and said loudly,
"Jin-shi-nephew, today you stopped me from killing the man from the Liu Mansion, saying that you were doing justice, so I didn't bother with you. Now that I'm killing the remnants of the evil sect, it won't hinder your business, right?"
Jin Renfeng took a few steps forward and stood beside Qu Feiyan, saying calmly,
"Fei Bin, I don't care if you kill Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang, but you can't touch Miss Qu."
"Hey! You can't move. You said the same thing during the day." Fei Bin said sarcastically, "Jin Shixi, I want to ask you this time, why? Why can't I kill this witch?"
"This girl saved the life of my junior brother Linghu. We in Huashan Sect owe her a favor." Jin Renfeng said lightly.
"Hey!" Fei Bin sneered, "Back then you defended the Liu family, saying that they were not involved in the Demon Cult's affairs, so they were all innocent. This time I want to see what excuses you can come up with to exonerate this Demon Cult witch."
Jin Renfeng looked calm and said,
"Miss Qu is only thirteen or fourteen years old. How can she be called a demon cult witch? Fei Bin, you are really exaggerating."
"What a eloquent Wushuang Sword!" Fei Bin laughed and clapped his hands. "Even the demon girl of the Demon Cult can speak up for him, so next time, should we protect the people of the Demon Cult? Now that Qu Yang is here, should Junior Brother Jin also make some excuses for him?"
Jin Renfeng frowned.
"Fei Bin, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Qu Yang is an elder of the Demon Cult. Even if he occasionally does good deeds, he is still a bloody man. How can I excuse him?"
"This Qu Feiyan is just a half-grown girl. She is not even old enough to participate in the affairs of the Demon Cult. How can they be confused?"
"Master Jin, please be wise. My granddaughter has been spoiled and has never been involved in the affairs of the Demon Cult. So, she is not a member of the Demon Cult!" Qu Yang shouted with a smile on his face.
"But she is a member of the Demonic Cult after all!" Fei Bin shouted angrily.
"Fei Bin, don't scare people here. Qu Feiyan is not a member of the Demon Cult after all. It's just that Qu Yang is an elder of the Demon Cult, so he is classified as a member of the Demon Cult."
"If you want to kill her, then show us the evidence of her evil deeds." Jin Renfeng drew out his sword.
"Otherwise, I absolutely cannot let you hurt her!"
Fei Bin was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and his rage was rising, he wanted to attack him.
However, thinking of Lu Bai's fate during the day, he had to force himself to endure it.
"Junior Brother Fei, let this evil woman go for now. It's more important to deal with Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang."
Ding Mian spoke out.
"We will deal with this Golden Phoenix later!"
Hearing this, Fei Bin snorted coldly and ignored Jin Renfeng.
The two men rushed forward, one against each other, and were ready to kill Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang.
Faced with Fei Bin and Ding Mian, Liu Zhengfeng and his companion did not wait for death, but instead tried their best to deal with them.
When Qu Feiyan saw that her grandfather was facing a life-and-death crisis, she immediately flew forward to help.
Jin Renfeng pulled it casually, and it spun around and turned back.
"What are you doing? I want to save my grandpa!" Qu Feiyan said anxiously.
"Miss Qu, with your martial arts skills, it will be useless even if you take action now. We are saving your life." Yue Lingshan advised.
"I don't want you to save me, I want to save my grandpa!" Qu Feiyan said anxiously, "Get out of the way quickly, or I will be rude to you."
Jin Renfeng said calmly,
"Miss Qu is the benefactor of Huashan Sect. No matter what, I cannot let Miss Qu die."
Qu Feiyan raised her eyebrows and cursed loudly,
"Jin Renfeng, what kind of knight are you? It was me and my grandfather who saved your fellow apprentice's life. Not only did you not repay the favor by saving him, but you are trying to stop me."
"What kind of man are you, you ungrateful thing?"
Jin Renfeng said calmly,
"I know whether I am a man or not. Since the young lady mentioned a favor, it is impossible for me to let her go."
"No matter what, I can't watch the girl die."
