Chapter 319: Junior Brother, I will wipe your sword for you.

Xin Zhen and Cheng Ying smiled slightly.

Shi Qinggong stepped forward and whispered, "Junior brother, I will clean your sword for you."

Xin Zhen raised the sword and saw that it was covered in blood. He smiled and handed the sword to Shi Qinggong. Shi Qinggong wiped it carefully with a white cloth before carefully inserting it into the scabbard.

At this time, the powerful enemy had left, so the banquet was resumed at Lujia Manor and the cups and plates were set out again. However, the heroes smelled the bloody smell in the air, and they no longer enjoyed eating and drinking. They kept looking at Xin Zhen who was sitting at the main table.

Afterwards, various martial arts masters toasted Guo Jing, Huang Rong and Xin Zhen, congratulating each other on defeating the powerful enemy, Master Jinlun.

Guo Fu had always been respected by everyone following her parents, but now she looked dim in comparison. Except for the Wu brothers, oh, only Wu Dunru was there at this time, who was attentive as usual, no one paid any attention to her.

She felt depressed and said, "Brother Dawu, let's stop drinking and go play outside."

Wu Dunru agreed. The three of them stood up and were about to leave the hall when they heard Guo Jing call out, "Fuer, come here."

Guo Fu turned around and saw that her father had moved to sit next to her mother, waving at her with a smile. She walked closer and called out, "Dad, Mom!" and leaned on Huang Rong.

Guo Jing smiled at Huang Rong and said, "At first you were worried that my son might have bad character, and that his martial arts skills were not good enough to match Fu'er. Now you have nothing to say, right?

He has performed such a great service for the heroes of the Central Plains. Not to mention that he has not made any mistakes, even if he was reckless and made mistakes, his merits outweigh his faults. "

Huang Rong nodded and said with a smile, "I was wrong this time. Guo'er is a good person with good martial arts skills. I am very happy too."

Guo Fu heard that there seemed to be something else in her parents' words. As expected, she heard Guo Jing sigh and say, "My father and Guo'er's grandfather are sworn brothers. The Guo and Yang families have been friends for generations. If she had not been sent to Quanzhen Sect at that time, it would be great to be betroth Fu'er to Guo'er today."

Guo Fu's face had already turned red with shame, and she hid her face in her mother's arms. Today, Xin Zhen had shown his great power and had driven away the powerful enemy. At this moment, she already admired and respected Xin Zhen in her heart. When she heard her father say that he would betroth her to Xin Zhen, her heart was filled with joy and sweetness.

But Huang Rong said with regret: "What a pity! Quanzhen Sect values ​​Guo'er and wants him to become a monk. This is related to the great cause of resisting the Mongols and is a matter of national importance. We really can't stop it. What a pity, what a pity!"

Guo Fu looked up at her mother and felt empty inside.

Just as the two were sighing, someone brought up the issue of the leader of the martial arts world. Someone said, "Although there were various setbacks today, Young Master Yang stepped forward and drove away the Mongols. This is in line with the original intention of the Heroes Conference and is a very good omen.

Young Master Yang comes from a famous and upright family. He hates the Mongols and his martial arts are superb. It is absolutely appropriate for him to be our leader.

I have a suggestion. I think we can nominate Young Master Yang as the leader of the martial arts world to lead everyone in the fight against the Mongols and drive them back to the northern desert."

When this person said this, some people agreed with him, but there were also many who disagreed. Those who disagreed said: "I think it is inappropriate, not because Young Master Yang is not good, Young Master Yang is indeed a top martial arts master, and his position is very firm.

However, he is just a young man after all, and fighting is a very serious matter. Young Master Yang probably has no such experience.

In this regard, I think it is best for Master Guo to lead us. Master Guo is highly respected and is Young Master Yang's elder. I think this arrangement is the most appropriate."

At this time, there are both agreeing and opposing opinions.

Guo Jing quickly stood up and said, "Today, Guo'er defeated the Mongolian national teacher, so naturally, Guo'er should be the leader of the martial arts world. I didn't contribute, so it's not my right to be the leader of the martial arts world." Xin Zhen stood up at this time, bowed to the heroes in the hall, and said loudly, "Everyone, please listen to what I have to say."

He has a clear voice, a natural expression, and a very unique temperament.

“…When two countries go to war, it affects the lives of all people in the world. We need a wise and brave man with high moral character to lead the country. Only in this way can we gain the respect of all the heroes.

I am only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can I take on such a big responsibility?

My uncle Guo was a great general who led troops in battle when he was young. It is most appropriate for him to lead the heroes in the battle.

So, I have the audacity to propose that Uncle Guo should be the leader of the martial arts world."

As soon as Xin Zhen said this, the heroes nodded and cheered, saying that Xin Zhen and his nephew Guo Jing were both unparalleled in martial arts, and the key was the deep affection between them, which was truly a beautiful story in the martial arts world.

Guo Jing was not particularly happy about becoming the leader of the martial arts world, but when others praised his deep uncle-nephew relationship with Xin Zhen, he couldn't stop smiling.

The matter was settled like this. After the banquet ended, Xin Zhen didn't want to stay any longer, so he said goodbye to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and also said goodbye to Hao Datong and others.

Before leaving, Guo Jing was quite emotional and said to Xin Zhen, "Guo'er, Uncle Guo has always been worried that you might make a mistake.

But when I see you today, I find that you have grown up, are responsible and have ideals, and are a good man.

I just hope you can keep up the good work and be vigilant to yourself and never go down the wrong path."

Xin Zhen smiled and nodded, "Uncle Guo, don't worry, I will follow your instructions."

Huang Rong said softly, "Guo'er, in fact, Auntie has always had high expectations of you. Sometimes it is inevitable that I will ask more of you. Don't think that Auntie is targeting you. It is really for your own good. Don't mind it."

Xin Zhen nodded and said, "Aunt, I understand your painstaking efforts. You, like Uncle Guo, are wholeheartedly doing good for me, and I am very grateful."

After saying goodbye to Guo Jing and his wife, he also had to have a good communication with Hao Datong and others.

Hao Datong called Xin Zhen to an empty place outside and said, "Guo'er, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why don't we wait until things are over here, and then we can go back to Zhongnan Mountain together?"

Xin Zhen smiled and said, "There's no point in staying here. Why not go out and have a look around?"

Hao Datong whispered, "Why don't you take over today's Wulin leader? If you do, it will be of great help to you in taking over as the headmaster. But you push him away. It's such a pity."

Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "There are too many troubles. Even if I take over the Quanzhen Sect, we will only be active in the north and have nothing to do with them.

Moreover, although these martial artists are highly skilled in martial arts, they have poor discipline and are not the soldiers I want. In my opinion, they are not qualified to be scouts, so there is no point in using them.”

After all, Hao Datong was in charge of the school affairs, so he often paid attention to Xin Zhen. It was because he saw Xin Zhen's potential that he strongly supported Xin Zhen to take over as the head of the school.
