Chapter 684: Aftermath

It was almost impossible for Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng to fake their deaths and escape—the key was that Bai Lang didn't want to cover for them at all. Besides, throwing two corpses that were cut bloody or burned to a crisp and saying these were the corpses of Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng... were others stupid? And wouldn't this make Bai Lang carry the responsibility for these two old fools? Bai Lang was not the father of these two old fools, so how could he bear this responsibility?

The best ending for these two old fools was to flee overseas—it was not only the Five Mountain Sword Sects that wanted to hunt them down, but even the Demon Cult would hunt down Qu Yang and kill Liu Zhengfeng by the way. So in a situation that attracted worldwide attention, the two of them dying together might really be the best result for their respective families—Qu Yang might not care, but Liu Zhengfeng still had a big family, and for their respective families, it was the best result.

However, Liu Zhengfeng might not care about his family anymore...

"Or I will kill you two and take your corpses to show people. That can be considered the end of a matter—Third Master Liu, you also have to think clearly. If you don't die and Qu Yang doesn't die, your family will always be shrouded in the shadow of the Demon Cult. The Five Mountain Sword Sects might not involve family members, but the Demon Cult will not." Bai Lang said, "As for you, little girl, if you want to live, I personally suggest you go to Hengshan to become a nun. My face should be quite big... or do you have other ways?"

Because Bai Lang suddenly remembered that Qu Feiyan might know the Saintess Ren Yingying. Although he had no good opinion of Ren Yingying, maybe Ren Yingying would protect this little girl? Bai Lang was definitely a gentleman in this world. The two literary old men were actually writing furiously. Bai Lang saw this and sighed, "I'm starting to admire you two. What time is it, and you still have time to record the scale of 'The sea laughs'." Bai Lang felt that these two old men probably didn't understand the importance of things in their whole lives.

Before long, they finished writing. Qu Yang looked up at Bai Lang, "Please, Mr. Bai, send her to Hengshan." As soon as the words fell, the old man had already taken action and sealed the acupoints of Qu Feiyan on the side, making her faint. Bai Lang looked at the expressions of these two old men, "Awakened." He was speechless for a while. He didn't expect these two guys to really not be afraid of death. Although their brains were not clear, this righteous character couldn't help but make Bai Lang sigh, "It really has the style of the ancients."

After saying that, Bai Lang slapped them with both palms, breaking their heart meridians directly—the two old men immediately lowered their heads and died—Bai Lang's blow could also be considered to have taken responsibility. After that, the safety of the Liu family and the safety of Qu Feiyan were all on him. Before killing, Bai Lang already had this awareness. In "Laughing Proudly in the Rivers and Lakes," Bai Lang was relatively rare to act in the style of most people in the martial arts world—as for taking the provincial exam, it couldn't be blamed on him. Could it be blamed on someone being too enterprising?

If he passed the metropolitan exam, it would be interesting, but I'm afraid he wouldn't be free, right?

Killing these two old men, Bai Lang used their belts to tie the two corpses together, and with one hand, he carried Qu Feiyan and ran back. At this time, the Liu residence was still chaotic. The Liu family members were protected by the Huashan Sect, but they were also headless—two of Liu Zhengfeng's direct disciples died, and four were seriously or lightly injured. His family members, men, women, old and young, were fine, but they were also crying and in a mess. It had to be said that the first person Liu was sorry for was his wife, plus his children, he was sorry for all of them.

Those disciples were still okay. Those who didn't die were well bandaged—although the master defected, the disciples' behavior of protecting the master with their lives was the friendship between master and disciple. Even Songshan wouldn't blame them or pursue their responsibility afterward. Others were talking about the fact that Third Master Liu actually colluded with the Demon Cult elder. Master Dingyi and Master Tianmen looked ugly. Just then, Bai Lang entered the hall with his head held high and threw the two corpses into the hall with a wave of his hand.

"Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang have committed suicide to thank the world." Bai Lang said, and the crowd was also shocked, and they came up to look at the corpses. The Liu family members and Liu Zhengfeng's disciples rushed up—Bai Lang didn't care about this matter. He just walked to Master Dingyi and bowed. "Junior Master Dingyi, Heaven has the virtue of liking life. This is Qu Yang's granddaughter. This old man only has this one family member. I see that this girl is young and has not yet gone astray. Why not let the Master take her into Hengshan to worship Buddha, and she will be able to live."

"Amitabha, good, good." Although Master Dingyi had a grumpy temper, her heart was actually very soft. At this moment, she nodded and asked her disciples to take away the unconscious Qu Feiyan. So Bai Lang sat down under Yue Buqun with a big horse and a golden sword, "Don't cry, don't cry. With Third Master Liu's death, you are safe. He can be considered to have regained some reputation." Bai Lang said, and Yue Buqun also spoke to comfort them.

The Hengshan Sect was a bunch of guys who didn't save their hearts. Such a big thing, Sect Leader Mo Da didn't appear. To be honest, it would be a headache if he appeared now. So it might be better not to appear again. He could quietly find a way to protect his Third Junior Brother's family afterward, otherwise, this Hengshan Sect Leader would not be able to do it.

The "Golden Basin Hand-Washing" ceremony was just a mess like this. The Songshan Sect also went back in a gray way, and there was no mention of any "Five Mountain Merger"—now even Master Dingyi and Master Tianmen's expressions were much easier. The Huashan Sect had two provincial graduates, which immediately cut off a lot of the pressure of the Songshan Sect's merger. "I don't understand what Zuo Lengchan was doing by letting the martial arts people he gathered wear masks and commit various black-market crimes in the original book? Could it be that he really thought he could merge the sects like this?" Bai Lang thought. At this moment, they were already on the way back to Huashan.

After Qu Feiyan woke up, she didn't make a big noise. After burying Qu Yang, she obediently followed Master Dingyi to Hengshan—this girl was quite smart and should have correctly understood her situation.

Returning to Huashan, Linghu Chong was sent to the Cliff of Repentance by Yue Buqun for confinement due to drunkenness and a trace of sympathy for the dead Tian Boguang. And Yue Buqun and Bai Lang were preparing—they had to set off for the capital to take the exam, and the spring exam was not far away. The Huashan Sect was actually "moving," and a considerable part was prepared to transfer to Huayin County. At this time, quite a few people had already surrendered to Yue Buqun in Huayin County, and the matchmakers were about to trample the threshold.

Ning Zhongze had been looking for a good family's daughter, wanting to find a marriage for Bai Lang. Bai Lang could only use words like "participating in the exam" to prevaricate. As for Yue Buqun taking a concubine, anyway, Ning Zhongze wouldn't let go. However, in Bai Lang's view, it seemed that Master had started to loosen up a little? Probably because if Sect Leader Yue had no son, it was ultimately her responsibility as the legal wife... "I vaguely remember that this time on the Cliff of Repentance, Linghu Chong should meet Feng Qingyang? It's a pity I'm going to take the exam... otherwise, it would be good to see the old man's martial arts." Bai Lang thought.
