Chapter 190

The Sun Moon Divine Sect and the Five Mountains Sword Sect had been hostile for many years, so it was no surprise that Huang Rong would have such thoughts.

Gu Hanyuan smiled disdainfully:

"Heh, the so-called nursery rhymes are all man-made. If Liu Zhengfeng washes his hands in the golden basin, the strength of the Five Mountains Sword Sect will inevitably weaken; is that a good thing or a bad thing for the Sun Moon Divine Sect?"

"That's naturally a good thing. You mean?"

With Huang Rong's wit, she immediately reacted after hearing Gu Hanyuan's hint; what affected Liu Zhengfeng's hand-washing in the golden basin the most was the Five Mountains Sword Sect.

And the Five Mountains Sword Sect had the Songshan Sect as its leader; Zuo Lengchan would certainly not let Liu Zhengfeng wash his hands in the golden basin.

"Madam is indeed wise; it is precisely the possibility that Madam thought of."

Gu Hanyuan's eyes were appreciative.

Huang Rong felt uncomfortable being looked at by him.

"There is still no news of the Songshan Sect coming to Hengyang City; I'm afraid that if they come tomorrow, they will be coming with ill intent."

"Zuo Lengchan has always wanted to merge the Five Mountains and become a top sect. After all, being neighbors with the Southern Shaolin in Songshan, the pressure is not small."

Gu Hanyuan could understand Zuo Lengchan's thoughts, but his thinking was too naive.

The Southern Shaolin would not let Zuo Lengchan merge the Five Mountains.

Just like in "Xiao Ao," Fang Zheng taught the sect-suppressing technique "Yi Jin Jing" to Brother Linghu Chong, wanting to make the Huashan Sect and the Songshan Sect clash.

Balance is the best result for them.

Brother Linghu Chong was chosen also because Fang Zheng saw his lack of desire for the world.

So the final result was that the Five Mountains failed to merge, the Sun Moon Divine Sect and the Five Mountains Sword Sect were severely damaged, and Brother Linghu Chong retired.

Shaolin remained the hegemon of the martial arts world.

Huang Rong also had no good feelings for the monks of the Southern Shaolin.

The Southern Shaolin was the leading sect in the Jianghu in the Song Guo.

She and Guo Jing defended Xiangyang City, and it wasn't that they hadn't asked the Southern Shaolin for help, but they were all refused with excuses.

They acted as if they were closing the temple and not participating in national struggles.

Yet they were constantly active in the Jianghu.

"Should we stop the Songshan Sect tomorrow?"

Huang Rong frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Except for the Hengshan Sect, which would send some wound medicine to support, other sects had never helped Xiangyang City.

Helping Liu Zhengfeng could bestow grace on the Hengshan Sect, but if he really washed his hands in the golden basin, Jianghu matters would have nothing to do with him in the future, and he would no longer be a member of the Hengshan Sect.

Is it really worth offending the Songshan Sect just for a Liu Zhengfeng?

Huang Rong indeed racked her brains for Xiangyang City, and almost every word and action was planning for more help for Xiangyang City.

Including being relatively tolerant toward Gu Hanyuan, which also had this part of the relationship.

It was not only valuing his potential, but more importantly, his identity as a disciple of the Wudang Sect.

Otherwise, how could she maintain a default attitude toward the matter between Guo Fu and him when she saw Gu Hanyuan surrounded by multiple women?

"If the Songshan Sect is just targeting Liu Zhengfeng, there is no need to pay attention at all; we have no position to intervene. It's just that with Zuo Lengchan's unscrupulous means, it's hard to guarantee that he won't attack Liu Zhengfeng's family."

Gu Hanyuan pretended to be very worried.

"If the Songshan Sect really attacks Liu Zhengfeng's family, will you take action?"

Huang Rong looked at Gu Hanyuan with some surprise.

Although Gu Hanyuan's deeds had always been upright, and he even had the demeanor of Guo Jing when he was young in this regard.

But clashing with the Songshan Sect was another matter.

The Songshan Sect was not a sect like the Quanzhen Sect, which had no decent skills other than a set of formations, and whose disciples were of mixed quality.

The lowest of the Thirteen Taibao of the Songshan Sect were all at the peak of the Innate Realm, and even the stronger ones were Grandmasters; if Zuo Lengchan could break through to the Great Grandmaster Realm, he could completely become a top sect.

If it weren't for Zuo Lengchan's cultivation reaching a bottleneck after practicing the Cold Ice True Qi, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to merge the Five Mountains to become a top sect.

"The stance of righteousness and evil is not important to me; what matters is that the justice in my heart is not tarnished."

When Gu Hanyuan said this sentence, his expression was serious and earnest, as if he would go even if there were thousands of people.

Huang Rong looked at Gu Hanyuan, who seemed to be shining under the moonlight, and was startled for a moment.

Although Huang Rong was the daughter of the Eastern Heretic Huang Yaoshi and had been rebellious when she was young, being called a "demoness."

But in fact, she had always held justice in her heart because she admired her mother, Feng Heng.

Otherwise, how could Guo Jing have won her heart just by treating her to a meal and giving her a horse when she was disguised as a beggar?

Wasn't it because she was attracted by the sense of justice of knowing it couldn't be done but doing it anyway, even though Guo Jing was wooden in his behavior?

Huang Rong, who was inexplicably panicked in her heart, teased Gu Hanyuan to mask her emotions:

"I heard you were quite romantic today, taking Fu'er to the Qunyu Courtyard and gaining the favor of many women; why didn't you agree to it? Was it also for the justice in your heart?"

Huang Rong's charming and affectionate eyes were full of smiles.

Gu Hanyuan looked at Huang Rong, who was becoming mischievous, amusedly.

He suddenly sat upright again, looked at Huang Rong seriously, and slowed his tone, making his voice more magnetic.

"Those common, gaudy women, how could they ever compare to even a ten-thousandth of you, my lady?"
