Chapter 163 The Future of the Sword Sect
Ding Xian thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Master Fang Sheng is a natural leader in terms of his background, qualifications, and character. Although he is not very good at leading troops in battle, with the help of Sect Leader Xin, there will be no problem.

Senior Sister, Junior Sister, you guys watch over the team, I'm going to talk to Master Yue, Senior Brother Dong, and Senior Brother Hong from the Dian Cang Sect."

As he spoke, Ding Xian walked forward with his sleeves fluttering, to discuss the matter with Yue Buqun and others.

Xin Zhen didn't know about this. At this moment, he was paying attention to the movements around him while also paying attention to his four disciples.

He listened to the breathing of Chen Zichi and the other three, observed their postures, and could not help but nodded with satisfaction.

Everyone had already traveled dozens of miles, and the young disciples from other sects were already struggling to hold on. Judging from their appearance, they probably couldn't hold on any longer.

But Chen Zichi, as the fourth youngest disciple, seemed to be at ease, breathing in an orderly manner, stepping lightly, and even had the energy to chat a few words.

This kind of performance shows that they have achieved some success in Zixia Gong and have reached the stage where their internal strength is endless and self-generated. Although it is not as strong as that of their predecessors, their aura is quite long-lasting, which shows that they have made great progress in recent days.

Xin Zhen smiled slightly. Compared with those who could only practice diligently, this internal force was like cheating.

Ordinary people who practice martial arts work hard every day to cultivate their internal strength, but their internal strength only increases a little bit. However, their internal strength is independent. It is cultivated all the time and increased all the time. You can clearly feel that the next moment will be a little bit stronger than it is now. This feeling is simply intoxicating.

Xin Zhen had already planned this matter, so he taught the Dugu Nine Swords to four people. If these four people could practice the Dugu Nine Swords, then even if there were no 400 disciples in the sect, Chen Zichi and the other three would be enough to support the future of the Sword Sect.

Think about it, ten years later, the Sword Sect has four more Xin Zhens...

Thinking of this, Xin Zhen’s mouth corners were harder to suppress than AK.

Moreover, the potential of the Sword Sect is not limited to that. There are now more than fifty disciples who have practiced Zixia Gong in the sect. If half of these people can master Zixia Gong, then in ten years, a group of Sword Sect disciples with superb swordsmanship and powerful internal strength will emerge!
Hey.

When the time comes, I’ll see who dares to bully our Huashan Sword Sect with their sect’s strength!

The world of martial arts is just like the relations between countries. No matter how powerful you are as an individual, if your country is too weak, you probably won't get much respect.

If you want to get involved in society, your background still matters.

The martial arts of Yue Buqun and Ren Yingying are almost the same, and Yue Buqun is even a little stronger than Ren Yingying. However, those men in the martial arts world dare to tease Yue Buqun when they meet him, but they will immediately prostrate themselves on him when they see the Saint Lady. There is no other reason, it is the problem of his background.

Of course, Xin Zhen is not the kind of person who relies on the power of others to bully others. The reason why he is so happy is more because he is happy to see the sect he founded grow and develop. This sense of accomplishment is indescribable. It is more satisfying than being a CEO for others or starting his own business!
……

Yamaguchi Town.

Jinshankou is a small town at the foot of Mount Tai. Shankou Town is an important transportation route from central and southern Shandong to Jinan, and it is also a must-pass place from Tai'an to Laiwu and Boshan.

Xin Zhen and his party entered Shankou Town.

Wu Yunzhong and Xin Zhen said: "Travelers from the east, west, south and north often gather here at the entrance to the mountain, and what they leave behind is shiny gold. Therefore, this place is also called the Golden Pass and is very prosperous."

Xin Zhen observed for a while and found that there were indeed more than a dozen shops in the town, including inns, carriage shops, etc., and it was very prosperous.

Yue Buqun smiled and said, "The Shankou Market has more than 10,000 people, and is the largest market in the east of the city. The livestock and timber trade here are especially famous for their large scale and wide range of trade. There are also seven or eight Chinese medicine shops in the town, among which Zhonghetang has the highest reputation and is known as "benevolent and benevolent".

The high-stack steamed buns of the Zhao family in Shankou and the pot cakes of the Tian family are traditionally handmade and quite famous.

The sesame oil from Yuanxiangzhai, the scissors from the Xitaipinghou family, and the weaving strips from Zhaizhuang all enjoy a high reputation.

Of course, the most famous here is the Taishan Sect, which is well-known in the martial arts world. Many of the shops here are owned by the Taishan Sect."

Xin Zhen smiled and thought of the time when Taoist Tianmen paid 50,000 taels of silver to buy the Wu Dafu Sword. He was indeed a wealthy man.

Soon after entering the town, someone came out to meet them. It was Shi Dengda, the Qianzhangsong of the Songshan Sect. When Shi Dengda saw Xin Zhen, the leader, he was shocked at first, and then he said respectfully: "Songshan disciple Shi Dengda greets Sect Leader Xin, Master Fangsheng, Sect Leader Yue, and Master Dingxian. Alliance Leader Zuo has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me."

Xin Zhen raised his eyebrows. Master Fang Sheng was here, but Shi Dengda mentioned his name first. Was he trying to sow discord between Shaolin and the Sword Sect?
Master Fang Sheng is superior to everyone here in terms of personal qualifications and background. Generally speaking, anyone who comes forward to greet him must greet Fang Sheng first and then others. There is no reason to greet others first.

Xin Zhen looked at Fang Sheng, but saw that Fang Sheng's expression did not change. Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Master Fang Sheng?"

Fang Sheng smiled and said, "It seems that the Left Sect Leader and the donors from various sects have arrived. Let's follow the Songshan disciples in."

Everyone started off, with Stenda leading the way.

Shi Dengda led the way while introducing Fang Sheng, Xin Zhen and others, "Previously, a group of demons from the evil sect occupied this place, causing the town to be in a state of depression. Alliance Leader Zuo led his team here..."

Shi Dengda glanced at Xin Zhen and said, "... He led the team to slay demons and exterminate evil spirits. The town finally regained its prosperity and used this place as a front station for the army to defeat the demon cult. Everyone, Alliance Leader Zuo will be waiting for you at Mr. Li's house in the town. We will discuss important matters when you all arrive."

Fang Sheng praised: "Leader Zuo is indeed worthy of being a giant of our righteous path. After not seeing him for a few days, he has killed demons and monsters for the people. Well done, well done."

Shi Tenda looked at Xin Zhen with some guilt, and Xin Zhen just smiled slightly.

After walking through a few streets and turning a corner, I saw the largest mansion in the town. There were many people standing guard at the door. Judging from their clothes, they were from various sects, including disciples from Kunlun, Emei, Songshan, etc.

When many disciples saw the newcomers, they all greeted them, saying, "Greetings to Master Fangsheng, Greetings to Master Dingxian, Greetings to Master Yue..."

There were also disciples from Songshan who came to pay their respects to Xin Zhen.

Disciples from other sects had no chance to meet Xin Zhen, but disciples from Songshan were very familiar with him.

But the ones who shouted the loudest were the disciples of Qingcheng Sect. Xin Zhen and the disciples of Qingcheng Sect and others smiled and nodded.

Zuo Lengchan and others had been waiting inside for a long time. When they saw Fang Sheng and others come in, they all stood up and greeted them.

Fang Sheng and the others also spoke up to greet each other, and they were quite warm to each other. This was normal, as they were in the same camp, and in this time of crisis, they were naturally closer than usual.
