Chapter 125 Return to Green Bamboo Lane

There were too many things to do at the moment, so Xin Zhen did not make a big fuss about accepting a disciple. He just burned a few incense sticks to inform the ancestors, paid homage to Grand Master Feng Qingyang, and paid homage to all the uncles and uncles, and that was it.

Xin Zhen then passed on Hunyuan Gong and Huashan Basic Sword Technique to Qu Feiyan, asking her to practice them well on her own. If she had any questions, she could ask Feng Qingyang and others at any time. As for Xin Zhen himself, he had to go down the mountain for important matters, so he could not take care of Qu Feiyan for the time being, so his master Feng Qingyang had to worry about her.

The others also became busy, especially Lin Zhennan, who wrote and sent out many letters, and then discussed with Feng Buping and others how to cooperate on matters such as opening an escort agency and recruiting disciples.

Xin Zhen quietly descended Mount Hua and arrived at Huayin County, where someone came to greet him, but it turned out to be Ji Wushi, whom he had not seen for a long time.

When Ji Wu Shi saw Xin Zhen, he was delighted and whispered, "Master Xin, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Can we go to a place where no one is around to talk in detail?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Lead the way."

Ji Wu Shi walked in front, turned into an alley and came to a shop. Xin Zhen followed in. Two people inside stood up and saluted Xin Zhen. They were the old man and Zu Qianqiu.

"Meet Master Xin."

Xin Zhen smiled and asked, "How long have you been in Huayin County?"

Zu Qianqiu said, "We have just arrived not long ago. We are here to inform Master Xin on the orders of the Saint Lady."

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "It seems that you have already decided on your camp."

Ji Wu Shi smiled bitterly and said, "The Divine Religion has encountered a great change, and we have no choice but to change as well. We are deeply grateful to Saint Aunt, and at this moment, we can only follow Saint Aunt Ren closely..."

Zu Qianqiu said with a smile: "Why are you saying these things? Young Master Xin is one of the smartest people in the world. It is better to be honest when talking to him, otherwise he will laugh at you."

Xin Zhen smiled but said nothing.

Zu Qianqiu said, "It was us who strongly supported the Holy Lady Ren to go to the Blackwood Cliff. Now that the rebellion has failed, if we don't follow the Holy Lady Ren closely, we will be liquidated sooner or later."

Xin Zhen looked at the other two people, who also had a sad face, and asked, "How many people are like you?"

Zu Qianqiu nodded and said, "A lot. Almost everyone who has received great kindness from the Saint Lady has been involved. Of course, some have also joined Blackwood Cliff. For the time being, our situation is relatively safe, but Blackwood Cliff will not allow this situation to continue. The Eastern Sect Leader will definitely tidy up the place soon, and by then, we will have nowhere to hide."

All three of them sighed.

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "What are you doing here?"

Ji Wushi said, "The Saint Lady was afraid that you couldn't find her, so she ordered us to come and wait for you. I'll give you a message. The Saint Lady will be waiting for you at Green Bamboo Lane in Luoyang."

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I will leave for Luoyang immediately. What about you?"

Ji Wushi and the other two exchanged glances, and Zu Qianqiu said, "We'll go too, but we have to go our separate ways, otherwise we'll be too conspicuous."

Xin Zhen nodded and said no more. They agreed to meet again in Luoyang and then set off separately.

Xin Zhen had some concerns in his mind, so he did not take a leisurely boat ride, but rode east on horseback. Within two days, he arrived in Luoyang. As soon as he set foot in Luoyang, Xin Zhen's brows slightly frowned.

Different from the previous times I came to Luoyang, now there are suddenly more people from all walks of life in Luoyang, as if something important is about to happen.

Xin Zhen did not enter in a high-profile manner. He disguised himself slightly to hide his extraordinary charm and quietly came to Green Bamboo Lane. As soon as he stepped into the lane, someone shouted, "Who is coming?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "An old friend is here to visit Saint Auntie. Please inform her." The man was surprised and asked, "Are you Xin Tanhua?"

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "Who are you?"

The man laughed and said, "My name is Bao Dachu, nice to meet Xin Tanhua."

Xin Zhen hesitated for a moment, then remembered who this person was, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Elder Bao, I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Bao Dachu chuckled and said, "Now he is just a stray dog, how dare he call himself an elder? On the contrary, Xin Tanhua, who fought against Dongfang Bubai in Shaolin, did not lose. He is truly famous."

Xin Zhen chuckled: "The Saint Lady is inside."

Bao Dachu nodded and said, "Xin Tanhua, please come in. I have been ordered to guard the perimeter, so I will not take you in."

Xin Zhen bowed and went inside. When he reached the door, a middle-aged woman looked at him with a scrutinizing eye. Xin Zhen immediately knew who it was and said with a smile, "Is it Sang Sanniang in person?"

The middle-aged woman snorted and said, "Are you Xin Tanhua?"

Seeing that the woman was not very polite, Xin Zhen laughed and said, "It's me."

Xin Zhen didn't say much and stepped inside. The middle-aged woman snorted coldly and grabbed him with one hand. The grabbing technique was very delicate. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be so exhausted that he would let her do whatever she wanted.

But Xin Zhen was not an ordinary person. Seeing Sang Sanniang's rudeness, his expression did not change at all. He misstepped and avoided the grab. He pushed to the side and his shoulder lightly rubbed Sang Sanniang's chest. Sang Sanniang scolded him, "You rude little thief!"

As soon as she uttered the words, Sang Sanniang felt an incomparable force coming. She couldn't help but lift her feet off the ground and her body floated backwards and hit the bamboo fence behind her. The bamboo fence collapsed immediately and Sang Sanniang fell to the ground.

This movement immediately attracted the attention of the people inside. Someone jumped out and saw Xin Zhen, and shouted in surprise: "Brother Xin, you are here!"

But it was Xiang Wentian.

Xiang Wentian saw Sang Sanniang collapsed on the ground, his brows furrowed, and he shouted at her, "Sang Sanniang, how dare you be rude to our distinguished guest!"

Sang Sanniang felt relieved at this moment, and quickly got up and knelt before Xin Zhen, saying, "Xin Tanhua, I am rude. I just wanted to test your skills for the Saint Lady, and I didn't mean to embarrass you."

Xiang Wentian sneered, "What about Xin Tanhua? Saint Lady has her own decision, and you have no right to interfere. Who do you think you are? Why don't you apologize to Xin Tanhua? If Xin Tanhua doesn't forgive you, you can kill yourself."

Sang Sanniang's face turned pale, and she kowtowed to Xin Zhen repeatedly: "Xin Tanhua, it is my fault that I didn't recognize the great man. It is my fault that..."

Xin Zhen waved his hand and said, "Forget it."

As he spoke, Xin Zhen walked inside. Ren Yingying also came out at this time. When she saw Sang Sanniang's appearance, she immediately understood what was going on. Her face changed drastically, and she pulled out a dagger from her sleeve, ready to kill Sang Sanniang.

Xin Zhen smiled, stretched out his hand and brushed the dagger in Ren Yingying's hand, took the dagger in his own hand, took Ren Yingying's hand and said: "Yingying, I miss you so much."

Ren Yingying blushed and said angrily, "Uncle Xiang is here, and you are talking nonsense like this!"

Xin Zhen smiled: "Where is my father-in-law?"

A cold snort came from the inner room.
