Dazheng Peak, Back Mountain, Ten Thousand Demon Cave.
"Senior brother."
"Senior brother! We came to see you."
A group of people called at the entrance of the cave.
After a few breaths, Linghu Jiu's voice came: "Come in."
A group of brothers led by Laud all poured into the Ten Thousand Demons Cave and saluted Linghu Jiu one after another.
"Senior brother, how are you here?" Laud was the first to speak.
Linghu Jiu shrugged: "Everything is fine, it's not that you don't know, I'm already used to the environment here."
"What I'm worried about is the little junior sister."
"She has a lively temperament, and now she has been punished and grounded in her own house, isn't she going to be depressed?"
The brothers sighed together, and immediately, you said a word and I said a word.
"Yes, I'm just as worried as senior brother."
"Yesterday, I got six new musical note Gu, put them in a cup, and gave them to her to play with with her personal maid."
"Oh? I just sent in a mechanical puppet the day before yesterday."
"I pleaded with Master, but I was reprimanded, alas......"
The relationship between the brothers and sisters is very good. This is because when Lin Bufan took in apprentices, he deliberately chose those of similar age and trained them from childhood.
These people grew up together and naturally had a deep friendship.
Lauder turned the conversation around: "In my opinion, the little junior sister has gone too far this time. That Ning Zhuo didn't know what ecstasy soup he poured on her, so that she could help her with all his might!"
"Senior brother, a few of us have made a joint venture and have settled the foreign debt of the little junior sister."
"However, Ning Zhuo can't let it go, he needs to learn a lesson or two. Otherwise, everyone's heart will be unhappy."
The topic led to Ning Zhuo's body, which immediately resonated with everyone.
"Yes, yes, that Ning Zhuo is too thief, relying on his good-looking color and rhetoric to deceive our little junior sister!"
"We all paid a lot, and he got the most out of it, which is absolutely not possible."
"Senior brother, among our junior brothers, you treat your little junior sister the best. We don't approve of others, we only approve of you."
"Yes, senior brother!"
"Senior brother, we have discussed it now, and if we really want to deal with Ning Zhuo ourselves, the impact will be very bad. Why not, with the help of the door rules, gather other expatriate monks to trouble this kid Ning Zhuo."
"You don't know, the little junior sister is grounded and depressed every day, but that kid seems to be a normal person, leaving the little junior sister behind, just focusing on competing with the new friend Hanzhou, and living a very comfortable life!"
When Linghu Jiu heard this, his face was solemn, and he shook his head and refused: "This move is not acceptable."
"There is no wall in the world that is impermeable, you have to pick up other monks to deal with Ning Zhuo, it will cause great damage to the reputation of my Wan Yao Sect."
"If this is disclosed, the results of Wan Yaomen's careful management for so many years will be lost."
"For the sake of mere self-interest, ignoring the interests of the entire sect, how could it be what we did?"
The brothers couldn't help but be silent and looked at each other.
Lauder said unwillingly: "Then senior brother, let's let Ning Zhuo live so nourishingly? He has been making rapid progress recently, but many of these cultivation resources are paid for by our brothers themselves."
"We only need to show a little willingness, those foreign monks are like cats that smell fishy, they will take the initiative to come to attach themselves to me and willingly help us deal with Ning Zhuo!"
"And to keep them confidential, you just need to sign a contract."
Linghu Jiu sighed: "People's hearts are changeable. How fanatically they are attached to you and me now, how hateful they may be in the future. On the contrary, those who have always had a flat attitude are much more reliable in their hearts."
"Such private things are not the work of me and other virtuous gentlemen, don't think about it anymore."
"I have long been very curious about Ning Zhuo, a friend, and when I come out of the cave in the future, I will definitely meet him in person."
Lauder sighed: "In that case, let senior brother handle it yourself."
The brothers exchanged again, chatting and laughing during the period, and finally said goodbye reluctantly.
After leaving the Great Competition, the other brothers began to discuss unwillingly: "Are we just like this?"
"Since senior brother has said so, let's do this."
"Senior brother has been imprisoned for several months, and by then, the daylilies will be cold. Ning Zhuo might have run away early!"
"Just say that he is greedy for money, then forget it. The key is that he deceives our little junior sister's feelings and uses our little junior sister, can this be tolerated?!"
Lauder smiled slightly: "Senior brother is just worried that we will damage the reputation of Wan Yao Sect."
"It's better like this, we will never come forward, we will never talk secretly with those foreign monks in person, and we will not even hint in private."
"We only spread rumors! In my opinion, Ning Zhuo climbed too fast. At first, he was a cave with more than 200 rankings, but now he has jumped to the top ten."
"In the last battle, he won quickly against Chang Yan, can he show his true strength?"
"I think there are not a few people who have the same suspicions as me!"
"As long as we set off a rumor, we should be able to win over others and take the initiative to challenge Ning Zhuo."
When the rest of the people heard this, their eyes lit up and they were full of admiration.
"Good plan, good plan."
"This method is good, we didn't end up, we just blew the wind."
"Even if we investigate, we can't investigate it."
Small peaks, martial arts arenas.
Ning Zhuo and Han Zhou were competing.
But unlike before, Han Zhou was at a disadvantage, while Ning Zhuo firmly had the upper hand.
The reason for all this was the mechanical arms, legs, and feet floating around Ning Zhuo.
These arms, like floating hands, can float in mid-air.
Ning Zhuo controlled them, constantly using martial arts frost fists, and used those mechanical legs and feet to perform martial arts old cold legs.
If Han Zhou faced two hands and two feet, it would be fine. But the problem is that he is facing a siege of ten arms, ten legs and feet together!
Hanzhou seemed to be besieged by a group of people, and could only keep retreating, widening the distance, trying to find flaws.
As a result, he was surprised to find that Ning Zhuo's level of mechanism manipulation skills was extremely high, and controlling these mechanisms was not only natural and free, but also tightly formed, cooperating with each other, and there was never a single one who dared to advance, and there was no flaw at all!
"You...... Stop first, stop." Han Zhou was surrounded and beaten for a while, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he waved his hand and shouted to stop.
Ning Zhuo's intentions were still unfinished: "Brother Hanzhou, I haven't mastered it yet, I just had a lot of feelings, maybe I can use these mechanisms to perform different bitter cold martial arts."
The corners of Han Zhou's eyes twitched.
He praised from the bottom of his heart: "Daoist Ning Zhuo, I never thought that your mechanism manipulation skills are so powerful, definitely more powerful than your martial arts, no, the five elements spells!"
Hanzhou can also be regarded as traveling to all parties and broadening his horizons. After fighting Ning Zhuo in person and experiencing the latter's mechanism, he immediately changed his understanding and evaluation of Ning Zhuo in his heart.
"It turns out that Daoist Ning Zhuo hides very deeply, and what he is really good at is not the Five Elements Spell at all."
This is very different from the outside world's estimates!
"In that case, Brother Hanzhou might as well rest for a while, and then we will practice." Ning Zhuo's smile was like a spring breeze blowing on his face.
Han Zhou was not happy to compete with each other next, but under Ning Zhuo's Buddha Heart Demon Seal, no, under the infection of his smile, he still nodded.
Looking at Ning Zhuo in the same place, controlling these mechanical arms, legs and feet alone, training seriously, and sometimes stopping to frown and think, Han Zhou couldn't help but look forward to inexplicably that one day in the future, Ning Zhuo would show this combat power in public, and the response of others.
"Hehehe." He thought of the fun and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ning Zhuo's ears moved slightly, and when he heard Han Zhou's laughter, a faint sense of joy arose in his heart.
"Brother Hanzhou and I get along very well. When I saw him before, I was quite sad. Now I am open-minded and my smile has increased every day."
"This feeling of being able to make the people around you happy is really good."
In today's competition, Han Zhou obviously staggered a lot, while Ning Zhuo showed a satisfied smile.
The results of the competition were very good, which made him very happy.
He and Han Zhou reluctantly said goodbye, as if they had returned to the days when he and Lin Shanshan got along day and night.
Han Zhou turned around and walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped and called out to Ning Zhuo: "Daoist Ning Zhuo, I almost forgot, the limelight has been a bit wrong lately."
"What's wrong?" Ning Zhuo's face showed a puzzled expression.
Han Zhou said: "It's about you. I don't know if you have noticed recently that there is a very bad gossip about you on Xiaozhengfeng."
"Saying that you are arrogant and looking down on people, saying that you are actually not strong enough, but you fought with Chang Yan before, took some advantage, and took advantage of the successful attack."
"In my opinion, it is you who sit in the top ten caves of the small peak, which makes many people jealous."
"These people want to challenge you and fight for the cave in your hands, but they are afraid of failing the challenge, so they spread such rumors and want to get others to challenge you more so that they can pave the way for themselves."
Ning Zhuo immediately frowned: "So there is such a thing!"
"Brother Hanzhou, thank you for your reminder, otherwise I would still be in the dark." Ning Zhuo bowed deeply and thanked him.
Han Zhou sighed: "Daoist Ning Zhuo, you can't train with all your mind. Xiao Zhengfeng and your family environment are not the same, many times, fighting is not only a positive challenge, but also a lot of off-field plots."
Ning Zhuo's brows furrowed even tighter: "Then what should I do?"
Han Zhou didn't have any good way, just told Ning Zhuo to pay more attention: "I think you can challenge one person as soon as possible and show off your mechanical skills. In this way, there will be no such gossip that slanders you."
"Thank you for your advice!" Ning Zhuo thanked him again and said a lot of words of thanks.
This caused Han Zhou to be worried about Ning Zhuo on the way away: "Ning Zhuo is the son-in-law of the family after all, and his mind is still simple. I just went out on a trip, and I don't know that people's hearts are sinister."
"From these gossips, it can be seen that the environment in which he lived before was relatively stable and beautiful."
"Alas, it's extremely ashamed to say. Even if I contact him and train with him, don't I want to get over him, and I am uneasy and kind."
