Volume 4: The Rise of Wuji Dao Chapter 11: The Master is a Cunning Man
"Misunderstanding?" Mu Chunhua glanced at Hou Jin, and pressed the tip of her sword against Old Song's neck a little tighter, saying, "I'm afraid it's not just a misunderstanding, right?"
Hou Jin cursed Mr. Song in his heart for being careless. An old veteran who was at the eighth level of the acquired realm, took the initiative to attack, but was countered by the opponent with a few moves.
But he smiled and said, "What a misunderstanding... Mr. Song originally wanted to save people, not to hurt the heroine."
Mu Chunhua chuckled and didn't respond, but the sword on Old Song's neck did not relax at all.
Seeing this, Hou Jin couldn't help but get anxious, and was thinking about what to say to make "Hua Mujin" release Mr. Song.
Unexpectedly, Old Song was so angry about being held hostage that he snorted coldly and said, "Your martial arts skills are indeed superb, but don't think you can do whatever you want just because you hold me hostage.
To tell you the truth, I am one of the twenty-three guardians of the Worry-Free Society, and Jinyun Trading Company is also under the protection of my Worry-Free Society.
If you know what’s good for you, you’d let me go immediately, apologize politely, and hand over the account book of the master of Qinglong Temple.
Otherwise, no matter you are from Shuiyuedongtian or any other sect, you will not be able to escape the revenge of my Wuyou Society!"
Hearing this, Mu Chunhua's eyes hidden under the black veil narrowed.
Although Wujidao had lived in seclusion in Shuiyue Cave for decades, she was one of the second-generation true disciples who often traveled around the world, so she had heard of Wuyouhui.
The Wuyou Gang has been rising in the underworld for about 20 to 30 years, and it is said that they are involved in some shady underworld businesses.
According to legend, there are many masters in Wuyouhui, some of whom are even at the innate level, so it is considered to have the strength of a second-rate sect.
Also, because he acts in secret, although he has a bad reputation in the underworld over the years, he has always been doing well.
Some people also said that Zong Sheng, the half-step innate hero of Gongshan who was famous in Jiangbei ten years ago, was killed by an unknown innate because he had offended the Wuyou Society.
It is also for this reason that the martial arts world concluded that Wuyouhui had innate warriors and was a second-rate sect.
If Jinyun Commercial Bank is really protected by Wuyou Society, it would be hard to deal with.
On the other side, Hou Jin secretly cursed Song You for casually revealing his family background.
But thinking that things had come to this point, it would be useless even if he opened his mouth to curse Song You, not to mention that the other party was the protector of Wuyou Society, someone he could not afford to offend.
So he followed Song You's words, changed his previous attitude, and said with a cold face: "Elder Hua, you really should think carefully about whether you want to offend my Wuyou Society for a book that has nothing to do with your sect!"
If Su Yan had not instructed in advance that as long as he had found out the other party's background, he should let the other party go first, otherwise Mu Chunhua really would not know what to choose at this time.
So, Mu Chunhua pretended to hesitate for a while, and then said: "I have heard of the reputation of the Worry-Free Society... I will have someone look carefully for the account book when I get back. Let's forget about today's matter, but I hope you will stop monitoring Shuiyue Villa, otherwise I will never be polite if I catch you again."
After saying that, Mu Chunhua stepped forward, faced Hou Jin and the others, and leaped backwards into the woods on the side of the mountain path.
Song You turned around and looked towards where Mu Chunhua had disappeared, with a gloomy face.
Hou Jin was also in a bad mood.
It was not only because of the failure of the operation, but also because of Song You - Song You had clearly made two big mistakes before and after, but now he still had to step forward and apologize with a smile and say nice things.
"Hmph, when I become a high-ranking member of the Worry-Free Club in the future, I will definitely teach this old man a lesson!"
While thinking this, Hou Jin smiled and said to Song You: "Mr. Song, no matter what, we have communicated with Shuiyue Dongtian. Since they know that we are from Wuyou Society, I believe they will be tactful and hand over the account book."
Song You didn't give Hou Jin a good look, but snorted coldly: "If you ask me, you don't need to bother with this woman from the beginning, just show the name of Worry-Free Society, I don't believe they are not afraid! Whether it's asking for the account book or asking them to take over the Qinglong Temple, don't they have to obey?!"
"Yes, you are right, I made the wrong decision." Hou Jin nodded, acting like Song You's grandson.
But in his heart, he said: Old man, if the Worry-Free Society acted as ostentatiously as you do, it would have been destroyed several times by those famous and upright sects.
Song You still looked unhappy. He waved his sleeves and turned back to Longshan County.
Hou Jin followed closely with Han Wei, He Lin and others.
The group entered the city, but did not notice that a man with ordinary clothes and appearance followed them on the street until they returned to the mansion in the east of the city.
Then, the man left the city and went straight to Shuiyue Villa.
When he arrived at the manor, the man immediately bowed to Wu Yue, Min Xuelou, and Mu Chunhua, "Master Uncle Wu, Master Uncle Min, Master Uncle Mu, they all live in a big house in the east of the city."
This man is Duan Zhang.
Previously, Zhao Shi brought four disciples to guard Shuiyue Villa, but it was still not enough to guard against the spying of Hou Jin and others, so naturally he had no way of finding out where Hou Jin and others lived.
This time, Su Yan had planned it from the beginning. He asked Duan Zhang to keep an eye on Hou Jin and others in the city. When Hou Jin and others returned to the city and were not on guard, he secretly followed them and found out where they were.
As for the people who were originally keeping an eye on Shuiyue Villa, when Zhao Shi left, Min Xuelou checked them out and confirmed that they had all been led away by Zhao Shi.
When Hou Jin and others returned to the city, they did not send those people over again. It was obvious that after Mu Chunhua's counterattack against Song You, they were afraid of Shuiyue Dongtian.
At this time, Mu Chunhua looked at Wu Yue and said, "Grandmaster, Uncle Wu, the Worry-Free Society is indeed not easy to mess with. What should we do now?"
After Mu Chunhua returned to Shuiyue Villa, she had already told everyone what she knew about the Wuyou Society, so she asked this question.
If the Wuji Dao was at its peak, there would naturally be no need to care about the Wuyou Society, and it could even be destroyed.
But although there are two innates in the Wuji Dao now, the founder Su Yan cannot move even a finger, and the other one, Li Fengqiu, who is said to be still alive, is nowhere to be found and cannot be contacted for the time being.
With Su Yi being only a half-step innate, it would be difficult to deal with him if the Wuyou Society targeted him.
Therefore, if Mu Chunhua followed her idea, it would be better to return the account book to the Wuyou Club, abandon Shuiyue Villa, and withdraw people directly to Shuiyue Cave.
Now, Shuiyue Cave is in a period of increasing strength. It can stay there for ten or eight years, and then train a few more people in the Innate Realm before coming out again.
At that time, he could not only seek revenge on Tianle Palace, but also try to wipe out gangs like Wuyouhui that he disliked.
Min Xuelou, Xue Xiuyi, Zhao Shi, and Duan Zhang also looked at Wu Yue.
Under the gaze of several people, Wu Yue's expression slightly changed, and he said: "Master said that we can't cooperate with the other party to do such a business that hurts the heaven and earth. As for the account book, even if we hand it over, I'm afraid Wuyouhui will not let us go.
After all, that is their evidence of guilt. Even if they get the original, how can they believe that we didn't make another copy and keep it?
If they want to keep this matter absolutely secret, besides dragging us into this matter, another way is to silence us.
In this case, we might as well take the initiative to attack, first destroy the group of people from Longshan County Jinyun Commercial Bank, capture their important figures, interrogate them for some information about the Worry-Free Society, and then evacuate from Longshan County. "
After hearing this, Mu Chunhua thought to herself: Grandmaster is a real veteran of the world. Not only is he shrewd and calculating, but he is also ruthless in his actions... Having a grandmaster like this really makes people feel at ease.
Min Xuelou's originally cold and bright face showed a little excitement, and he said: "Master is right. When dealing with evil forces like the Worry-Free Society, we must not blindly give in and give in. We should let them know how powerful we are."
Wu Yue nodded and said, "Master said that we should act without delay. If we delay, something bad will happen. Let's act tonight."
Min Xuelou, Mu Chunhua and others immediately bowed their hands and said in unison: "Yes!"
