CHAPTER 101 - ACCOMPLISHMENT MANTRA (2)

Wang Yuyan's words were still as cold as ever. Young Master Linghu, I think it's only because you're a player that you're so polite to me. That year, your master, Wu Ya Zi, abandoned my grandmother and her daughter at Wu Liang Mountain for dozens of years. Isn't it worth hating this kind of disciple who abandoned his wife and son?

Linghu Chong shook his head, and said, Miss Wang, I think there must have been a misunderstanding. My master was hurt by my Free and Unrestrained Faction's traitor, Ding Chun Qiu, and was saved by my senior brother Su Xinghe in the valley. For the past thirty years, he has only been able to hide in the cliff face, waiting for a fated person to go in and find him. That day at my senior brother's place, you also saw Ding Chun Qiu's face. If it weren't for your help, my Free and Unrestrained Faction would have already been annihilated.

Wang Yuyan thought for a long time before saying, You're right. Don't tell me my grandmother lived through a misunderstanding until she died? That's why my mother especially hated heartless men, so she didn't let go of people with the surname Duan. Sigh, looks like all of this was caused by a misunderstanding. Young Master Duan, you should leave immediately.

Before Duan Ming could even react, Linghu Chong said anxiously, Miss Wang, since the misunderstanding is clear, I want Miss Wang to help me with something. is it possible for you to return the secret scripture of Profound Rippling Steps that Young Master Duan has been searched by your esteemed self to our Free and Unrestrained Faction? Our Free and Unrestrained Faction is now preparing to rebuild our sect, but now we don't have any more of them.

"This is the Profound Rippling Steps that you wanted, I'll return it to the Free and Unrestrained Faction on behalf of my mother today. As for the rest of the manuals, they already belong to the Murong Family and they won't belong to us anymore. I don't think I can help Young Master Hu with that.

Linghu Chong received the scrolls, opened it and took a look, and indeed it was a Ripple Tiny Steps. However, it was a pity that he did not return the manuals in the big cabinets. This gave Linghu Chong a headache. For a sect to be established, according to what Su Xinghe had said before he left, it required a sect's imprint of an inner force technique and another set of martial arts, but now that the Northern Nether God Technique's manuals were gone, it was useless to even use the Ripple Tiny Steps.

Linghu Chong was just thinking of helping Wang Yuyan think of a way to get a few secret manuals from the Murong Family to fill up her numbers, but at this moment, footsteps came from outside. Wang Yuyan quickly pushed Linghu Chong and Duan Ming into the flowers and said, "Hurry up and go, my mother is back.

Hearing that, Duan Ming had already left, while Linghu Chong followed closely behind. If he lost her, he would not be able to get out of the flower bush. Linghu Chong walked to the side of the boat and asked, Young Master Duan, Miss Wang is so beautiful, her mother wouldn't be that bad. Why are you so scared?

Yanyan's mom is indeed as beautiful as her, but she's filled with killing intent. Every time you catch me, you have to kill me to make me into fertilizer. Yanyan has saved me many times.

Linghu Chong asked curiously, Just now, I heard Miss Wang's tone of voice was very cold and detached towards you, why would she save you?

Duan Kai laughed, Actually, she is wearing a cold face but her heart is warm. Actually, all the expression she had just now was just an act. But she only has her cousin in her heart, and I have no chance at all.

Linghu Chong sent Duan Kai on the boat, and before he left, he advised, Young Master Duan, don't be discouraged. Perhaps one day Miss Wang will think it through and feel your infatuation.

Duan Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe. Thank you for your auspicious words, Young Master Hu. I will take my leave now.

At this time, he thought of something and said, Young Master Duan, since you have found the secret manual for our Free and Unrestrained Faction, how about I invite you to become my Free and Unrestrained Faction's honorary elder?

Duan Gui shook his head and rejected Linghu Chong's suggestion, Our Dali Clan will be entering Sky Dragon Temple in the future, so the temple rules state that we cannot have any conflicts with other sects. I appreciate Young Master Hu's good intentions.

Linghu Chong did not force him, and said: That Young Master Duan, take care, if there is anything you need, just come and find my Free and Unrestrained Faction's Xu Zhu. He is the Acting Sect Master of our Free and Unrestrained Faction, and your NPC's can communicate with him more appropriately than me.

Of course! Duan Ming's voice disappeared into the distance with his boat.

Although he did not get the most benefits this time, personally speaking, he already earned a lot. Whether or not Free and Unrestrained Faction could establish a sect was up to it. It would be good if it wasn't completed, so he could save himself the trouble of taking revenge on Ding Chun Qiu.

The moment Linghu Chong returned to his boat, Murong Qiu Yue immediately rushed over and hugged him tightly. Her eyes were still red as she said, "Big Brother Linghu, you're finally back.

Linghu Chong comforted Murong Qiu Yue and said with a smile, Aren't I fine? And I've found what I was looking for.

Murong Qiu Yue also smiled and said, Really, Big Brother Linghu, I want to take a look.

Linghu Chong took out the secret manual for Profound Rippling Steps and said, Although I have learnt the Northern Nether mental cultivation method, I do not have the secret manual anymore. Right now, there is almost no hope for the Free and Unrestrained Faction to rebuild its sect.

The moment Linghu Chong said this, the system prompted, The new sect's Free and Unrestrained Faction s have been officially established!

Before Linghu Chong could react, the system continued: Player Linghu Chong, as the first Sect Leader of the Jianghu Tribe, is specially rewarded with a scrolls, learn a bit or a million, all Free and Unrestrained Faction s will have their martial arts levelled up by one level!

CHAPTER 102 - MO YAN'S TROUBLE

Linghu Chong was shocked by the system's sudden news. He was the dignified Sect Leader, but he was still in the Great Lake of Jiangnan just now, and had only found a secret manual on martial arts. He did not have any prompts, nor did he have any operations. Although the reconstruction had brought Linghu Chong all sorts of benefits, especially the rise in the level of the Free and Unrestrained Faction's martial arts, he was overjoyed. To raise the level of the Third Stage of Darknorth to the Second Stage, no matter how many tens of millions he had, he would never be able to think about it. But the seal on Darknorth was still there, and he could only use that much power now. The internal force was rising very fast, but it was not something he could create by himself. But Linghu Chong was not worried, with the internal force here, he could not run even if he wanted to. It was just a matter of time, before he did not have the internal force, and now, he could even use the internal force of the eighth step.

After thinking about it, Linghu Chong came to a conclusion. The matter regarding the founding sect must have been done by Xu Zhu. It had only been a few days since the kungfu, and the foolish Xu Zhu actually managed to accomplish such a thing.

Looking at the scrolls that appeared in his hand, Linghu Chong was just about to open it, but then the system notification popped up again, Please return to Free and Unrestrained Faction in three days to host the opening ceremony. Do not postpone it.

Linghu Chong naturally did not dare to be negligent, and told Murong Qiu Yue all the news, before he prepared to head to the Free and Unrestrained Faction's encampment. Murong Qiu Yue was happy for Linghu Chong at first, but after saying that she would follow along as well.

He did not want to stay with Murong Qiu Yue for too long, since he had not made his own decision yet. He felt that the only thing he wanted to do was to apologize to Murong Qiu Yue, and that would only cause her to fall deeper and deeper into a trap. If he made any unfavorable decisions, it would only bring her the greatest amount of harm. But he didn't have the heart to refuse this pitiful little girl's request. Since he had no other choice, he could only pretend to be deaf and mute as he followed Murong Qiu Yue back to the Swallow Dock.

After thinking about it for half a day, Linghu Chong still could not harden his heart and refuse Murong Qiu Yue's request. Take her along with him, he had just decided to tell Murong Qiu Yue his decision. It turned out that Murong Qiuyu and the rest were not in the meeting, so all the matters had been placed on Murong Qiu Yue. She had been accompanying Linghu Chong for the past few days, so there were more and more things piled up, and Rou Er saw that Murong Qiu Yue was about to pull her away when she came back.

Murong Qiu Yue smiled helplessly at Linghu Chong before he was pulled away, and said a little sorrowfully, Big Brother Linghu, I can't accompany you then. Remember to come find me when you're done.

Seeing that the situation was developing in the direction that he wanted, Linghu Chong naturally agreed. It wasn't that he hated Murong Qiu Yue, but he was actually quite happy with her. However, he still couldn't figure out what he should do in the end, so there was always a big rock pressing on his heart.

After bidding farewell to Murong Qiu Yue, Linghu Chong first went to the Public Council to investigate the location of the Free and Unrestrained Faction's encampment. Unexpectedly, in the distant Tian Shan, the NPCs in the martial arts world were able to do anything they wanted.

Knowing the location, Linghu Chong was not in a rush anymore. There were still three days left, and he had plenty of time. He decided to take a stroll in the martial arts world, his first destination would obviously be Xiangyang, and with Mo Yan here, his relationship with the Murder House would not be clear.

Linghu Chong did not immediately go to the Murder House after getting off the System Carriage. He understood Mo Yan very well, other than when she was accepting quests, she would not appear at the Murder House. Usually, after she had taken off her clothes, she would either wander around the Jianghu, or stay in a house he bought in Xiangyang City. However, like other girls, staying in the house might be like playing the zither, but Mo Yan was actually constantly stabbing a puppet in her room to train the accuracy of his sword. Linghu Chong had been to her house a few times, and had always seen Mo Yan play with her puppets. At that time, he had laughed that Mo Yan was an assassin who did occupational diseases, and even thought about how he would kill people when he was resting.

Her luck was good. Mo Yan was in her house, because only half of the ring was on the front gate. Every time Mo Yan came back from outside, he would take the ring off the side of the door and bring it into the house. It was convenient for the people from the Murder Club to come find her, so only a few core members knew of this habit.

Just as Linghu Chong wanted to knock on the door, he suddenly had an idea and retracted his hand. He then walked around to the wall, flipped over it, and lightly walked to the door. Sure enough, there was movement in the room.

Linghu Chong's left hand gently pushed the door open, and in that instant, he unsheathed the sword in his right hand and placed it at his throat. After a few seconds, Mo Yan's sword arrived, but it was not aimed at his throat, but slightly off to the side.

Seeing Mo Yan's sword move again, Linghu Chong quickly shouted, Mo Yan, it's me.

Mo Yan finally reacted, he sheathed his sword and said in surprise, Linghu, it's you? Are you finally back?"

Linghu Chong looked at that smiling face and thought of the usually ice-cold Mo Yan. He felt that it was very strange. However, it was obvious that Mo Yan was a little tired, and the light in his eyes had dimmed. Linghu Chong looked at the situation in the room, it was a bit messy, it did not look like Mo Yan's room, where everything was in order. After working as a killer for a long time, Mo Yan had high requirements for details, but now, this room seemed like it belonged to a person who did not care about appearances. The marks from the sword on the puppet by the wall had all been left a long time ago. There were no new marks. It seemed like Mo Yan hadn't been practicing her sword art during this period of time. Thinking about this, Mo Yan's attack was slower than usual, and his accuracy was also lower. It seemed that she had encountered some problems.

Linghu Chong did not directly ask, but joked, Yo, Miss Mo Yan, why are you so happy to see me? You can't even hold your sword steadily anymore, it will affect your sword movements.

After Mo Yan heard what Linghu Chong meant, he sighed and sat back down on the ground, and said: It's been a long time since I last practiced the sword, so naturally I retreated. It's normal for you to laugh at me.

Linghu Chong said with concern, Looks like you encountered some kind of serious trouble. In the past, as long as you're free, you wouldn't stop practicing. In your words, it's to sharpen your sword in order to kill people. Now that you're going out to take a mission, I'm afraid you'll lose your reputation as the Spiritseeker.

Mo Yan still sighed, and took out a stack of silver notes from his bosom, passing it over to Linghu Chong, Here, this is your ten thousand gold. The issuer of the previous mission never came, and later on I heard that his gang was robbed by Nanyan Association, so without needing to compensate, the twenty thousand gold deposit was sold to the system.

Linghu Chong was just worrying about not being an assassin and where he could earn money from, now that he received the ten thousand gold, he naturally accepted it and said, Looks like my luck is really not bad. Oh right, Mo Yan, I am preparing to leave the Murder House. I feel that I am not fit to be a killer myself. Thank you for taking care of me these days."

Mo Yan smiled and said, I already knew that one day, you are not suited to be a killer. Your personality determines this. You don't need to thank me anymore. The Enlightenment Pill you gave me is already a very valuable gift.

Linghu Chong thought of something and asked, Mo Yan, have you eaten that Enlightenment Pill?

Mo Yan shook his head, took out a pill from his ring and showed it to Linghu Chong.

Linghu Chong indicated for Mo Yan to eat it. Although Mo Yan didn't know why, she still did as Linghu Chong said. Seeing Mo Yan swallow the pill, Linghu Chong took out the Secret Scripture of Profound Rippling Steps, passed it to Mo Yan and said, Quickly, learn it. This secret scripture of the Qing Gong requires 49 points of comprehension, I remember that your comprehension is lacking, so I told you to eat the Enlightenment Pill first, you should be able to learn it now.

Mo Yan took it, and after learning it, he returned the scrolls back to Linghu Chong and asked curiously, This is an absolute art, where did you get this?

Linghu Chong laughed, This is a martial arts technique from our Free and Unrestrained Faction, I am the Sect Leader of the Free and Unrestrained Faction, and this manual is not even in my records yet. When I return to the Free and Unrestrained Faction encampment, I will only be able to learn it as a disciple of the Free and Unrestrained Faction, so I told you to learn it first.

Linghu Chong's words made Mo Yan completely confused. It seemed like Linghu Chong had had a lot of fortuitous encounters in the past few days. He asked curiously, but Linghu Chong shook his head and did not answer, "It's been too long, I need to rush back to the Free and Unrestrained Faction to host the founding ceremony. After everything is over, I'll slowly explain it to you.

Mo Yan bitterly smiled and continued sighing.

Linghu Chong said anxiously, Could it be that there is something that you cannot tell me? We've worked together for so long anyway. We've never kept our words to ourselves before. If you think I'm a friend, then tell me what kind of trouble you've been in recently, and maybe I can help you.

After a long while, Mo Yan said, After you left, I don't know who spread the news in the martial arts world and released my virginity, but every time I went out on a mission, I was always pestered by a lot of men. They said they want me to be their girlfriend, I'm so annoyed.

CHAPTER 103 - IMPERSONATED BOYFRIEND

Linghu Chong laughed out loud, and said, So what if others know you're a girl? In any case, they have never seen your real face under the veil, and no one would recognize you when you were walking on the street. Mo Yan sighed, But every time I go on a mission, there will always be a large group of people waiting for me. It's so annoying, it will take me less than half a day to get rid of everyone who follows me.

Linghu Chong asked curiously, Won't the Murder House's mission be kept a secret from the public after it's announced? How do they know which mission you're on?

Mo Yan said helplessly, It's not just the goods that are paid for. I only accept big deals. The ones with little money are usually not excited, so I don't want to do it. Therefore, every time I accept a mission, I would be targeted. Right now, there are more and more people, so much so that I don't have the heart to practice my sword recently, and I don't even accept missions anymore. Usually, you don't even go out to play, and always worry about being recognized by others. "

Hearing Mo Yan's words, Linghu Chong had no other choice and asked, There really are so many people in the martial arts world, chasing after your girlfriend in the game. But who leaked the news that you were a woman?"

Mo Yan said bitterly, I don't know either. If I knew, I would have killed him a long time ago, even though I haven't killed anyone for free in a long time. Hmph, this is too infuriating. Mo Yan's eyes turned as he stared at Linghu Chong, My identity is known to a few of my old friends in the Murder House. They would never sell me out. Did you betray me? "

Linghu Chong was shocked by the killing intent in Mo Yan's eyes, he immediately jumped far away and shouted: How can it be me, everyone I see after leaving you are all NPCs, how can I have the chance to speak nonsense outside?

Mo Yan didn't continue to ask and said, I know it's not you. It's not like I'm going to kill you if I hide that far away. Actually, I have my suspicions about your Miss Murong Qiu Yue. The possibility of her spreading this information is the greatest.

Linghu Chong hurriedly defended Murong Qiu Yue, That's impossible right? Qiu Yue is just a little sister, how could she do such a thing? I think there's someone else.

Seeing Linghu Chong being so nervous, Mo Yan did not know what to say. She smiled bitterly, Now is not the time to find out who it is. Even if it really is her, what can I do? I can't go back to that time. I'm thinking about how I'm going to solve this problem.

Linghu Chong thought for a while, then said: Mo Yan, this matter is actually very easy to resolve. Can't you just tell those people that you already have a boyfriend? If that's the case, then those people will obediently give up after knowing that the famous flower has already been named, and your troubles can be solved. What's with this idea of mine?

Hearing that, Mo Yan rolled his eyes at Linghu Chong, "Do you think I have never thought about it? I have said it more than a hundred times, but those people are still like flies. Every time I say that I already have a boyfriend, they don't believe me and want me to bring my boyfriend out for them to meet.

After Linghu Chong heard Mo Yan's complaints, he suddenly said, Can't you just find someone to pretend to be your boyfriend?

Mo Yan immediately had a headache, Where am I supposed to find them? As an assassin, very few people know my identity. Those friends of mine are all under my control. I wouldn't be able to keep my identity a secret if I randomly find one on the street.

Mo Yan looked at Linghu Chong as he spoke, as if he was looking at his prey. She stood up and approached Linghu Chong step by step, and his lips curled into a smile.

However, the room was limited. After all, he had only taken two steps back, and his back was already pressed against the wall. Linghu Chong said, Mo Yan, what are you doing? Why are your eyes so terrifying?

Mo Yan chuckled and said, Linghu, I've found the perfect candidate to pretend to be my boyfriend.

Linghu Chong was puzzled, Found it? Then, he thought about it and said, Don't tell me you're talking about me.

Yes, that person is you, Linghu. Linghu Chong followed the direction of Mo Yan's voice and looked over, only to see her pointing a finger at his nose.

Linghu Chong quickly jumped away and waved his hands, saying, No, this is impossible, I will get misunderstood this way.

Mo Yan still had a smile on his face as he said, Linghu, you are the killer 'fighting for your life', and I am the killer 'Soul Chaser'. They have always said that we are a pair in the martial world, and being my boyfriend is the best, it won't arouse anyone's suspicions. As for whether it is or not, as for you being afraid of misunderstandings, it will be like what you said before. In any case, no one knows the true identity behind your veil, so what's there to be afraid of?

Linghu Chong shook his head with all his might, Little sister Qiu Yue knows all my identities, she had always suspected that there is some special relationship between us. If I help you this time, wouldn't that give her the best evidence, then I won't be able to wash this off even if I jump into the Yellow River?

When Mo Yan heard this, her face immediately changed, and her tears almost came out. She had lost her spirit, and said gloomily, Sigh, these days, no one cares about me, even you, a good friend, are unwilling to help me. Other people treat their friends like a pair of ribs on a knife, but you, you forget about sex! I was really mistaken about you. With that, Mo Yan buried his face in his knees, and then a sad cry came out.

Linghu Chong was hurt to death by Mo Yan's sadness. He was a soft-hearted person in the first place, but now he felt even more guilty. He hurried forward to comfort her, Mo Yan, don't be sad, I'll promise you that. You don't have to make me sound so bad. But since I've helped you this time, you have to explain it to me later on."

At this time, Mo Yan's crying turned into laughter. He said, Stupid Linghu, I knew you would be soft-hearted and would promise to help me. Linghu Chong took a closer look, seeing no traces of tears on Mo Yan's face, it turned out that the scene just now was purely an act.

Linghu Chong could not help but laugh bitterly, Mo Yan, if this were to spread out, the number of worshippers in your Soul Chaser group would probably decrease by a large half. Who would have thought that a cold-blooded killer would play such a crying and noisy game?

Mo Yan smiled and said, I don't care. You are the only one who has seen me in the martial arts world. You won't tell anyone. If you want me to hear something outside, I'll show you. "

Linghu Chong laughed a few times, and said, Of course I won't tell anyone, it won't do me any good. Right, let's think about how we should act in this show.

On the same night, Mo Yan accepted another mission, and of course it was with Linghu Chong. This time, the two of them started off like before, one after the other, but this time it was with Linghu Chong. The two of them wore cloaks and veils as they snuck into the house their target was in. This time, because he picked it in a rush, and also to take care of Linghu Chong's itinerary plan, there weren't many challenges, so Mo Yan normally wouldn't even consider this type of mission that lacked excitement.

When the sword came out, one sword and one kungfu, Mo Yan's mission was completed. She brought Linghu Chong and ran for a distance before stopping and whispering, Now it's all up to you.

Then she shouted to the surrounding people, I know you guys are all following me, hurry up and come out. Today I brought my boyfriend, so that you guys can give up. From now on, don't bother me anymore.

Just as he finished his sentence, the figures of many people appeared around him. There were even a few women in the middle of a large group of men. Linghu Chong asked curiously, Could it be that there are homosexuals who have their eyes on you?

Mo Yan hit Linghu Chong a little, then said: You're just speaking nonsense, these are all people that came to watch the show, don't make wild guesses. Then, Mo Yan pulled Linghu Chong to his side, intimately holding onto his arm, and said, This is my boyfriend Snatching Life . Everyone had long guessed my relationship with him, and now that I have met with this kind of trouble, I can only announce the world to the world here.

A man walked out of the group and shouted, Miss' Soul Chaser ', you can casually call someone to cover your face and say it's' life stealing '. Who would believe that? Who doesn't know that you've been acting alone these past few days and didn't even go with' life stealing '?

Seeing that there are people who do not believe me, Linghu Chong took a step forward and pulled out his Exquisite Lu Sword, and activated his Spirit Qi: This is my Exquisite Lu Sword, everyone, now do you believe in my identity. A while ago, I was delayed from entering the game in real life, so I didn't expect to find that everyone was pestering my girlfriend today. Today, I came to specifically inform everyone about our relationship, so you guys don't need to bother 'Soulchase' anymore."

A few men came out from the crowd and said, You two aren't husband and wife, so why aren't we allowed to pursue 'Miss Soul Chaser'? Even if we're husband and wife, we can still have extramarital affairs!

Seeing that there was actually such a helpless person, both Mo Yan and Linghu Chong sighed at the same time.

Linghu Chong steeled his heart, walked up, and said: "If you want to pursue me,
