Chapter 339: The Faraway World

Chapter 339: The Faraway World
After completing the ceremony of offering tea to Liu Qing, Yue Lingshan was led by a maid to a corner of the house deep in the backyard, which would become her residence in the future.

The house is quiet and elegant, decorated with numerous rockery and pine trees.

Yue Lingshan took a few secret glances and found that the layout of this courtyard was surprisingly familiar to her, but she couldn't tell where it was familiar.

Entering the room, Yue Lingshan sat on the carefully decorated wedding bed, waiting with great anticipation.

After an unknown amount of time, the door was gently pushed open, and a slight aroma of wine drifted into the room with the night breeze, and Ou Zanghua slowly walked in.

After seeing the bride sitting upright on the bed, he smiled and walked over slowly. Every step seemed to step on Yue Lingshan's heartstrings, making her heartbeat accelerate involuntarily and her breathing become rapid and heavy.

He picked up the scale on the table and lifted up Yue Lingshan's red veil.

Yue Lingshan had her hair tied up high in a bun, with gold and jade hairpins inserted in it. Each piece of ornament sparkled with a warm luster, setting off her jade-white skin. Her eyebrows were as dark as distant mountains, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, and there was a gentle smile on the corners of her mouth.

When she looked up at Ou Zanghua, her eyes were shining with stars and love, as if the whole world had stopped.

Ou Zanghua felt his heartbeat pause, as if he had been electrocuted.

At this moment, Yue Lingshan is truly worthy of the title of stunningly beautiful woman.

“Senior Brother, can I call you this from now on?” Yue Lingshan looked at Ou Zanghua who was a little dazed and asked shyly.

Ou Zanghua came back to his senses, smiled and nodded: "Okay, Lingshan, call me that from now on!"

He led Yue Lingshan to the table, where seven dishes were placed, including fish in milk soup, stewed meat with three fresh vegetables, pork elbow with handle and other famous Northwestern dishes.

Ou Zanghua was first served two glasses of wine. He raised the glass, smiled at Yue Lingshan, then lightly touched the rim of the glass. After drinking the wine that symbolized their union, he began to feed his new wife.

Yue Lingshan had eaten something at home in the morning and has been hungry ever since.

That night, one was drunk and the other was full, and they had no other thoughts. After Ou Zanghua helped Yue Lingshan remove the ornaments on her head, the two lay on the bed and chatted.

Yue Lingshan leaned in Ou Zanghua's arms and told him about her childhood in Huashan:
"My room is eh?!"

The girl's heart was filled with ripples. She slowly raised her head and scanned the carefully decorated room. The familiar feeling from the bottom of her heart instantly found its source, making her eyes slightly moist.

"Brother, you..." Her voice was trembling and a little bit unbelievable.

Seeing this, Ou Zanghua explained, "I know you are new here, so it is inevitable that you will feel a little uncomfortable. So I specially asked Brother Liang Fa about this courtyard, and I scaled it down according to the general appearance of Huashan in his memory."

"As for the room, I asked my mother-in-law, and under her guidance, I tried my best to restore your room in Huashan."

As he spoke, Yue Lingshan felt a tingling sensation in her heart.

She looked at the attentive senior brother in front of her, tears flashing in her eyes, revealing the most charming smile. This sudden surprise moved her deeply.

"Brother, thank you." Yue Lingshan leaned in Ou Zanghua's arms and said softly, "It is my blessing to meet you in this life."

Early the next morning, Yue Lingshan changed into women's clothes and entered the ancestral house again accompanied by her maid.

This time, the people sitting in the main seats were Liu Zhengfeng and Madam Ouyang. They took the tea handed to them by Yue Lingshan, took a sip, said a few auspicious words, gave some cloth and jewelry, then stood up and left, leaving the space to Liu Qing.

Liu Qing was sitting aside. She noticed that Yue Lingshan's walking posture was normal today. She was startled and realized that nothing happened last night. Then she found it a little funny.

When Yue Lingshan saw Liu Qing smile, she couldn't help but relax a little.

The two were chatting in whispers in the warm ancestral home, but the wind and snow outside were becoming more and more violent, as if to wrap the whole world in silver.

Under the cover of the vast snow curtain, four figures quietly shuttled back and forth and finally stepped into a winery on the roadside.

The restaurant was warm and cozy, forming a sharp contrast with the severe cold outside.

The four figures, some wearing cloaks, some wearing hoods, looked a little dusty. After entering the door, they gently shook off the snow on their bodies, glanced around the store, and finally found a quiet corner to sit down.

After taking off their cloaks and putting them aside, the four people were Linghu Chong, Ren Yingying, Lan Fenghuang and Lu Zhuweng.

After they escaped from the Ancestral Mountain, they headed towards the Orangutan Beach. Among the four, there was the top master Linghu Chong, and although the other three had different levels of skills, they all had their own unique skills and were considered first-rate in the martial arts world.

At this moment, the Sun and Moon Sect is empty, and they still have their supporters, so it is the best time to take over.

At this time, on the stage of the winery, a sloppy old man drank a sip of hot wine, slapped the gavel, and said in a vivid and loud voice: "Last time, we talked about how all the masters in the world gathered at the Ancestral Mountain to fight against the Sun Moon Divine Sect. In the end, the leader of the Divine Sect, Dongfang Bubai, was invincible and defeated many masters in a row, including the Shaolin Abbot Fangzheng Master, the Wudang Sect Leader Chongxu Taoist Priest, the Five Mountains Alliance Leader Zuo Tongzhi, the Huashan Sect Leader Mr. Yue, and the romantic young man Linghu Chong."

"Afterwards, the Eastern Patriarch, in his invincible form, went alone into the capital, a place full of dangers and dangers, just to defeat the last master in the world, Lord Ou Zanghua, who is known as the Three Wonders of Hengshan!"

Having said this, the sloppy old man deliberately kept the topic in suspense, and the attention of Linghu Chong and the others was immediately attracted. Just as they were wondering why he didn't continue, many people from the martial arts world took out copper coins from their pockets and threw them onto the stage without hesitation. Accompanied by the sound of crisp copper bells, the atmosphere was instantly ignited.

"Sun Laita, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us everything!" someone shouted roughly, his words full of urgency.

"Yes, yes, yes, tell us quickly, money is not a problem!" Everyone echoed, laughter and cheers intertwined, it was very lively.

At this moment, a sloppy child who looked only five or six years old but very clever, seemed to jump out from the crack in the ground, and nimbly shuttled among the crowd, doing dazzling somersaults while accurately picking up the copper coins scattered on the stage one by one. His movements were so smooth that many people began to cheer.

Sun Laita took a quick look and knew that he would not be hungry for the next seven days, so he continued:

"That Dongfang Bubai is indeed invincible. He can come and go freely even in places like the capital. It's a pity that he went to the Ou Mansion at a wrong time because Lord Ou had gone to court. In order to force Lord Ou to come out of the city to duel with him, Dongfang Bubai not only injured the guards of the Ou Mansion, but also took Miss Yue, the jewel in the crown of Mr. Yue, the head of Huashan Sect, who was visiting the Ou Mansion, as a hostage."

As soon as these words were spoken, Linghu Chong's expression changed, and the people from all walks of life in the martial arts world showed joy on their faces, as if to say, see, practicing martial arts is useful, even the guests of the imperial officials can be tied up at will.

"When Lord Ou came back from court, it was already dark. Miss Yue, the delicate beauty, stayed in the same room with Dongfang Bubai for a whole night."

Before he finished speaking, the audience burst into laughter, which only men can understand, and a few of them even started a discussion.

A single man and a single woman are in the same room, one is a beautiful lady and the other is the best fighter in the world, isn't it obvious what will happen?
Linghu Chong's face turned cold, and he looked at those people and said coldly: "Stop spreading rumors here. You have never seen Dongfang Bubai, so don't make malicious assumptions about others!"

"Where did you come from, you little bastard? What the hell is it to you if we talk about us?!" Those people were all desperate criminals. They immediately stood up with their weapons in hand and asked back with a sneer.

"I am Hua"

Before Linghu Chong could finish reporting his identity, Ren Yingying pulled his clothes.

Linghu Chong came back to his senses, gripped the hilt of his sword, and continued, "I can't control what you are saying here."

"You little bastard, you're looking for death!"

Several men drew their weapons and were ready to attack, and Linghu Chong also drew his sword to meet them.

At the critical moment, the waiter came out, stood between the two groups of people, and said with a smile: "Everyone, fighting is not allowed in our shop. If you want to fight, please go outside."

Sun Sloppy also reminded: "Everyone, this is the only store within a ten-mile radius. If you go out in this weather, you can't come back in. You will freeze to death."

After hearing this, the men frowned slightly and had to retract their weapons. One of them pointed at Hu Chong and warned him, "Hmph, kid, be careful when you walk."

"Hey, it's you who should be careful." Linghu Chong sneered and returned to his seat.

After the storm subsided, when everyone listened to Sun Laita's description, except for those few desperate criminals, everyone else restrained themselves a lot. After all, Linghu Chong and his three companions did not look easy to mess with.

When Linghu Chong heard that Ou Zanghua went alone to rescue his junior sister, he first breathed a sigh of relief, but then was stunned. If it were him, would he do the same as Senior Brother Ou?

It should be possible!
So what if I am invincible?

At most, it's just death.

When Ren Yingying heard Dongfang Bubai generously admit that Ou Zanghua's swordsmanship was the best in the world, she couldn't help but glance sideways at Linghu Chong. She saw that he looked disgusted, but did not show too much disappointment.

Sun Lazi concluded, "Although Lord Ou lost this battle, he still won with honor. Not only did he save Miss Yue, he also made Dongfang Bubai call him the best swordsman! Within five years, Lord Ou will surely become the leader of the righteous martial arts world, and he has already been promoted to the position of Minister of Rites. When you are in a high position in the government, you worry about the people; when you are far away in the martial arts world, you worry about your ruler. Life is like this, what else can you ask for!"

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but show envy. This is the life a real man should have!
Linghu Chong took a sip of the hot wine, feeling his body slowly warmed by the liquor, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Now he doesn't know where his path is going.
