Chapter 97

"It seems that Sha Mingyue is more than just pretty."

Zhang Lingshan pondered for a moment.

I still remember when I was working as a deputy foreman in the outer city government office, it was rumored that Yan Yuqing got into a fight with Sha Mingyue because she was jealous of her beauty, so she was transferred by someone else.

Based on Zhang Lingshan's understanding of Yan Yuqing, the truth is definitely not this.

Therefore, there must be something wrong with Sha Mingyue.

Now Sun Xian is speaking so exaggeratedly again.

Do you want to see her?

"Zhan Ming, what do you think?" Zhang Lingshan asked for everyone's opinion.

Zhan Ming said: "Although I have never met Sha Mingyue, when she was under Jiang Shaowei, Jiang Shaowei knew that Sha Mingyue should not be easily provoked. She is the most special existence of the Sha family and has a transcendent status. She should be able to represent the Sha family. This is to win over you, Master Shan."

"In that case, I have to go and see him in person."

Zhang Lingshan stood up, dressed, picked up his Zen stick, and left the place with a shake of his body.

in a blink.

He came to Mingyue Tower in Dongyangji.

As if to entertain him alone, there was no guest in Mingyue Tower. When several maids saw Zhang Lingshan appear, they immediately came forward and said, "Mr. Shan, the young lady is waiting for you on the top floor. Please move over and have a chat."

"it is good."

Zhang Lingshan leaped several feet high and landed at the door of the top-floor box.

crunch.

He pushed open the door.

In an instant, an indescribable breath came towards him, causing the qi and blood furnace in his body to react naturally.

Wow.

The aura was immediately burned away, revealing a woman in plain clothes sitting inside.

I saw that the woman's face was a little pale, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked as if she was seriously ill. She looked sickly and there was nothing beautiful about her. She was just ordinary.

"Who are you, and where is Sha Mingyue?"

Zhang Lingshan asked.

The woman smiled brightly upon hearing this: "I am Sha Mingyue, why do you have to ask me when you already know the answer, Mr. Shan?"

'Is this Sha Mingyue?'

Zhang Lingshan pondered in his heart.

Such an ordinary woman was actually described by Sun Xian as the best in the world, and he even wanted to plot against her just to get a taste of her beauty.

ridiculous!

But Sun Xian is definitely not blind, and Sha Mingyue’s status as the most beautiful woman in Jincheng is not in vain.

From this we can see that the breath that hits you when you open the door is the key to Sha Mingyue's beauty.

Zhang Lingshan didn't dwell on this question. He stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Miss Sha, I am a country bumpkin. I am sorry for not recognizing a great man."

Sha Mingyue made a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Shan, please take a seat. The Mingyue Tea in my Mingyue Tower is the best in Jincheng. Please have a taste, Mr. Shan."

"Thank you."

Zhang Lingshan sat down with his horse and golden sword, picked up the teacup, and saw a tea leaf in it, but it did not float up, but sank to the bottom of the cup, like a crescent moon printed on the bottom.

Just based on the appearance, it gives people a very artistic feeling.

Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but get caught up in it, as if he really saw another world in the tea.

Suddenly, the furnace of qi and blood in the body began to burn involuntarily.

Zhang Lingshan came back to his senses and drank the tea in one gulp.

As the energy point flashed red, the numbers began to increase.

'Fuck you.'

Zhang Lingshan cursed in his heart.

Why do these four major families love to do these things? Will they die if they don’t poison them?

However, compared to the Jiang family's poison, this Mingyue Tea is relatively weaker and has a different effect.

After drinking the tea, Zhang Lingshan felt for a moment that the woman in front of him was incredibly beautiful, just like a fairy from heaven who had descended to earth.

But after the poison in the tea was digested, the man became ordinary again.

As if she noticed the change in Zhang Lingshan's eyes, Sha Mingyue's face looked a little unhappy.

But she quickly covered it up, poured another cup of tea, and said, "Mr. Shan is gifted and powerful, and he has helped Jincheng get rid of the Jiang family, a great threat. But it's hard to be a good person, and you have touched the interests of many parties. I wonder what Mr. Shan's next plan is?"

"I don't have any plans. Let's just take it one step at a time. I wonder what Miss Sha has to say?"

Zhang Lingshan asked back.

Sha Mingyue smiled and said, "Young Master Shan, just call me Mingyue. I have a way to help you get rid of your worries."

"Please teach me, Mingyue."

"The current head of the Yuan family, Yuan Lingjun, is a violent person who cannot tolerate any injustice. He has learned that the Hongying Martial Arts School betrayed the Yuan family and joined the Du'e Sect. He will surely attack you in a rage. If Master Shan doesn't mind, Mingyue can help you deal with the Yuan family."

Zhang Lingshan asked in confusion: "Aren't the four major families said to be of the same blood? Why are you willing to help me deal with the Yuan family?"

"Alas, Master Shan, you don't know. Without the Jiang family's suppression, the Yuan family will dominate and will swallow us up sooner or later. So we have to strike first."

"I see."

Zhang Lingshan nodded: "I wonder what Mingyue's plan is."

Sha Mingyue said: "The plan should be simple rather than complicated. In my opinion, when the Yuan family takes the initiative, I will have someone secretly cooperate with you and work together to kill the Yuan family's Bone Forging Realm!"

"I wonder how many people in the Yuan family are at the Bone Tempering Stage?"

"Three. The ancestor of the Yuan family, Yuan Lingjun's uncle Yuan Tianfang, and Yuan Zhou. Among them, Yuan Tianfang is the strongest, but he will not leave the Yuan family easily. The ancestor of the Yuan family has been in seclusion for many years, and only Yuanzhou will appear outside. So we only need to deal with Yuanzhou."

"I see. Thank you Mingyue for clearing up my confusion."

Zhang Lingshan cupped his hands.

If what Sha Mingyue said is true, then the situation is similar to that of the Jiang family. The Jiang family also has two people in the Bone Tempering Realm, plus an old ancestor of the Jiang family.

With the strength of the four major families, they own most of the wealth in Jincheng, but after years of cultivation, they have only achieved this bone-forging realm.

The Huo family in the outer city is even worse off. Apart from Huo Liuyin, there has not been a single person in the Bone Tempering Realm in all these years.

From this we can see how difficult it is to break through the Bone Tempering Realm!

So even though we are only dealing with one Yuanzhou, as long as we succeed in killing him, we can injure the Yuan family so badly that they will no longer be able to cause trouble to others.

"Master Shan, Mingyue is feeling a little unwell today, so I won't keep you here any longer. If you need Mingyue's help in the future, feel free to come find me at Mingyue Tower."

Sha Mingyue's face showed a tired expression and she looked even sicker.

Zhang Lingshan did not stay long and bowed to say goodbye.

And after he left.

Sha Mingyue hurriedly got up, went back to the bedroom, took out a red jar, then buried her face in the mouth of the jar and took a deep breath.

A long while passed.

She raised her head and exhaled a long breath of pink air, and her face returned to its rosy color.

'This person has a very strong Yang energy. Just being in the same room with me can make me feel uncomfortable. If I continue to stay in the same room, I am afraid that my true colors will be revealed.'

Sha Mingyue was still frightened.

Originally, she called Zhang Lingshan over because she had a lot to say and a lot of things to test, but in the end, she did nothing and just said some basically useless nonsense.

It was all because I was frightened by this person's yang energy. My body felt uncomfortable, my breath was stagnant, and my brain wasn't working properly.

It is not easy to persist until now.

"This man is my nemesis. We must not allow him to grow. Otherwise, no matter what happens to others, I will not survive under his hands."

Sha Mingyue pondered for a while and decided that Zhang Lingshan was her lifelong enemy and he was more feared by her than anyone else.

Before they met, she was still thinking about joining forces with Du'e Sect and making good use of Du'e Sect's combat power.

But now, she just wanted to kill Zhang Lingshan as soon as possible.

"Someone, call Grandpa Feng over. I have something to discuss with you."

Sha Mingyue shouted in a deep voice.

"Yes."

The servants immediately took action.
-
Hong's Martial Arts School. After Zhang Lingshan came back, Sun Xian asked excitedly, "Master Shan, how is Sha Mingyue? Is she as I said..."

"Rouge and powder are vulgar and ordinary. They are also very low in intelligence and speak useless nonsense, which is not as good as what you say."

"..."

Sun Xian was stunned.

This is completely different from what I remember.

Sha Mingyue is a celestial being, how could Shan Ye belittle her as being even worse than a stink bug?

Did Sha Mingyue reveal her ugly side, or did Shan Ye have too high standards?

He didn't understand and was shocked.

At least in his memory, no one has ever commented on Sha Mingyue like this. Shan Ye is indeed a man who can destroy the Jiang family and has a unique vision.

Then Zhang Lingshan continued, "The only useful thing he said was that the Yuan family has three people in the Bone Tempering Realm..."

After that, he asked, "As far as you know, does the Yuan family only have three people in the Bone Tempering Realm? What about other families?"

"This - I don't know."

Sun Xian and Zhan Ming both shook their heads.

Seeing that they were of no use, Zhang Lingshan went to ask Hong Zhengdao and Zhao Hongying, but did not get any useful information.

All I know is that Yuanzhou of the Yuan family has always been the representative of the Yuan family outside.

It can be seen that among the people who tested him yesterday, one was Yuanzhou.

"Report——!"

A doorman rushed in and shouted, "Deputy Sect Leader, Huo Jun, the head of the Huo family, wants to see you."

"Got it. Take him to the Juyi Hall. I'll be there soon."

"Yes."

After a while.

When Zhang Lingshan arrived at the Juyi Hall, he saw a middle-aged man sitting on a chair.

When the other party saw Zhang Lingshan coming, he immediately stood up to greet him and said with a smile: "Deputy Sect Master Shan, it's a pleasure to meet you."

This person looks even more ordinary than Sha Mingyue.

But he was in high spirits, with a rosy complexion, especially a pair of bright eyes, and a straight body.

Although he was a head shorter than Zhang Lingshan, his straight body like a gun added a unique temperament to him.

"Master Huo, nice to meet you."

Zhang Lingshan smiled and made a gesture of invitation, then went straight to the point: "I wonder why Master Huo is visiting us?"

Huo Jun said: "I heard that my daughter Huo Zhenzhen sent a letter to Deputy Sect Master Shan without authorization. It was really rude and made Deputy Sect Master Shan laugh. I am here to apologize."

Zhang Lingshan waved his hand and smiled, "It's just that the kid wanted to see me out of curiosity. It's not a big deal. It's my busy schedule that I don't have time to see Miss Zhenzhen's beauty. It's a big loss."

"Deputy Sect Master Shan is joking. Come, bring the apology to Deputy Sect Master Shan."

Hum hum hum.

Four strong men, each holding a large box, walked up to the stage with difficulty and put the box down.

thump.

The box fell to the ground, and the sound was so loud that the floor shook.

Then, from left to right, the first strong man opened the box.

It's a weapon.

The second box opens, revealing the inner armor.

The third box, pills.

The fourth box, gold.

"It's a trivial matter, not respectful."

Huo Jun smiled slightly.

Zhang Lingshan was surprised and asked, "What does Master Huo mean by this? It's too valuable. I won't accept it without merit. If Master Huo needs any help, just tell me."

"The deputy sect leader is indeed a man of quick words, worthy of being the man who can overthrow the Jiang family overnight."

Huo Jun praised him highly, and then said: "This time I came here mainly to represent our Huo family and want to form an alliance with Du'emen."

"How to form an alliance?" Zhang Lingshan asked.

Huo Jun said: "My ancestor Huo Liuyin is unable to go out due to physical disability, so he needs the help of the deputy sect master. The Du'e Sect is newly established and its foundation is unstable, so it also needs the assistance of our Huo family. How about mutual benefit and win-win cooperation?"

"That's a good idea. But I don't know what Senior Huo Liuyin needs me to do?"

"I just hope that Deputy Sect Master Shan can lend a helping hand when someone bullies my Huo family members."

"Okay! It's settled then. As Du'emen develops in the outer city, we also need the Huo family's care."

"Natural nature."

The two chatted happily.

However, before leaving, Huo Jun reminded Zhang Lingshan not to trust Sha Mingyue's words easily.

"The Sha family is ambitious, and Sha Mingyue is quite strange. Many people are manipulated by her. Deputy Sect Leader Shan should be careful."

"Master Huo, don't worry, I know."

Zhang Lingshan nodded and ordered someone to send Huo Jun out.

Then, he picked up a box of pills and tasted them one by one.

Well.

The taste is not very good, either fishy and smelly, or tasteless.

but.

Can boost energy.

Originally, these pills could be distributed as rewards, which would not only boost the enthusiasm of subordinates, but also save lives at critical moments.

However, for Zhang Lingshan, no matter how many subordinates he has, they are not as good as him in strengthening his bones.

As long as he can forge his bones.

All problems are solved.

"The Huo family is okay. There is no poison in this elixir."

Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.

However, although they are non-toxic, the quality of these pills can only be considered average, the improvement in energy points is very limited, and it takes a long time to digest.

Fortunately, there are enough.

After eating a box, it can at least increase by more than 20,000 points.

"Speaking of which, the Jiang family is better. Unfortunately, the Jiang family was divided by the other three families. The Buddha's front grass and Buddha's face flower are probably burned to ashes. Even if they are not burned, it is still a dangerous place. Once you enter, you may not be able to get out."

Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"By the way, although we were not able to rob the Jiang family properly due to the haste of the incident, we did manage to get a bag of Jiang Bie's treasured weapons. If we melt them down to make a precious sword, it would be a great help."

Zhang Lingshan thought about this and took action immediately and went to the Jiang family's weapons workshop.

This place was captured by their Du'e Gate yesterday. All those who disobeyed were killed. The remaining craftsmen were ordinary people and did not participate in the upper-level struggle. They just had to do their work well.

Zhang Lingshan found the most famous blacksmith among them.

The blacksmith said that smelting is possible, but certain impurities will seep into the weapon during the process, and it may not be as tough as the weapon itself. However, he will do his best to make it as close to the original as possible.

"Okay. I'll wait for your good news. If you succeed, I'll reward you with 10,000 taels of silver."

"Thank you, Deputy Sect Master."

The blacksmith was overjoyed and immediately called the workers to work overtime.

Zhang Lingshan ordered his people to assist and meet all the blacksmith's requirements.

As long as the sword is formed, he will no longer be as passive as he was when he was dealing with the Jiang family's bone-forging technique, and his combat effectiveness will at least be greatly improved.

While he was eating and drinking well, keeping his body in peak condition at all times, he was waiting for the sword to take shape.

Yuan family in inner city.

Yuan Lingjun was still holding a bamboo book and flipping through it. When he heard his subordinates' report, he suddenly frowned and said, "After investigating for the past few days, I concluded that the deputy leader of Du'e Sect was Zhang Lingshan, a young disciple of Hong's martial arts school?"
