Madam, protect me!

Huashan.

Chaoyang Peak.

Chang'an is only three hundred miles away from Huashan. Yue Yang and several old friends returned to the sect immediately after they separated in Chang'an.

In a main hall, he handed the invitation given to him by Li Nuo to an old man and said, "Brother, this is the invitation for the martial arts conference held by the imperial court. It is said that the Sanqing Sect also sent several masters here..."

The head of Huashan originally dismissed the martial arts conference held by the imperial court.

If a martial arts sect gets too close to the imperial court, they will be called hawks and lackeys.

But when he heard that the Sanqing Sect had also sent a master, he immediately became serious.

The Huashan Sect has three masters. According to the rules in the martial arts world, if there are three masters, it can be called a first-class sect.

But even if the Sanqing Sect is split into three, without leaving the sixth realm, any of the Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing sects will have the strength to easily destroy the Huashan Sect.

If Sanqing Sect goes and they don't go, wouldn't it be too cautious?

They are not qualified to hold it.

After thinking carefully, the head of Huashan Sect said to Yue Yang and another person: "Since the Sanqing Sect is so serious, our Huashan Sect cannot be underestimated. Junior Brother Yue and Junior Brother Cheng, when the time comes, you will each bring ten disciples down the mountain to participate in this event." The second conference..."

Yue Yang nodded and said, "Yes."

Next to Yue Yang, an old man with a pale face waved his hand and said, "I'm not interested in any martial arts competition. Let Junior Brother Yue go."

The head of Huashan thought for a while and said nothing more. Sanqing Sect can send out several grandmasters, which is more than anyone else.

Counting himself, the Huashan Sect only has three grandmasters in total. Sending one is already sincere enough.

He nodded and said, "Then let's do it."

…

Li Mansion.

Mother-in-law didn't come to Li's house today, so Yi Ren didn't practice sword practice. Instead, she flew a kite with Ning'er on the roof.

My wife, on the other hand, has obviously been much more diligent in practicing recently than before.

Li Nuo knew that she wanted to improve her cultivation as much as possible. Although she didn't say anything about some things, she cared about them in her heart.

If she hadn't practiced Yuqing Xinjue, she might not have such a character at all. You can see some of it from the beauty and mother-in-law.

In my heart, the lady actually wants to live a life like a normal woman.

After dinner, Li Nuo went to the Ministry of Etiquette.

This morning, the Ministry of Rites has received the official response from the Huashan Sect.

In this martial arts conference, the Huashan sect will send a grandmaster and twenty disciples to participate.

The grandmaster they sent was none other than Senior Yue, whom Li Nuo was familiar with.

In this case, wouldn't his work be in vain?

Li Nuo hoped that the three masters of the Huashan Sect, including their leader, could come over.

But unless they wanted to, Li Nuo couldn't force them.

He thought about it for a while, then walked to a government office and said, "Mr. Wang, come here, I have an important errand for you..."

…

Three days later.

Huashan, Chaoyang Peak.

The Huashan Sect welcomed several guests. The leader of the Huashan Sect was practicing cultivation. When he heard about the identity of the visitors, he gave up on the little Zhoutian that was about to end and hurried out to meet the guests.

The guests who came to the Huashan Sect this time were not only the masters of the Sanqing Sect, but also officials from the imperial court, so they could not be neglected in the slightest.

He put on his attire, walked into the reception hall, showed a kind smile, and said: "We are here as distinguished guests. We apologize for the delay in welcoming you..."

Su Qing cupped her fists and returned the greeting, saying, "Headmaster Lin, long time no see."

The head of the Huashan Sect smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, but Elder Su's style remains the same."

The two masters chatted politely, and not long after, Yue Yang also felt it and said: "My little friend came to the Huashan sect, why didn't you notify me in advance? I am so welcoming..."

Li Nuo smiled and said: "Senior Yue, you're welcome. We also came to Huashan on an impromptu trip and stopped by your sect."

In the past, Li Nuo would not dare to play even if he wanted to.

But now that his mother-in-law is here, plus the beauty, Butler Wu and concierge Huang, he has nothing to fear.

This time, they went out to play as a family.

Huashan Mountain is not far from Chang'an, and the scenery is breathtaking. As a member of the Ministry of Rites, and as a right man of the Ministry of Personnel, he brought the master of the Sanqing Sect and her two daughters to enjoy the scenery. He spent only one penny on the whole trip and could find a house when he returned. Department reimbursement.

Li Nuo took a brocade box from Butler Wu, handed it to Yue Yang, and said, "This is a gift for Senior Yue."

Yue Yang was slightly startled, and then immediately said: "Come as soon as you come, little friend, and bring any gifts. You're welcome, you're welcome..."

Li Nuo smiled and said: "This is not a gift from me to Senior Yue, but from the imperial court. Every grandmaster who participates in the martial arts conference will have such a gift. This is a set of crown uniforms. Senior Yue can try it out." Doesn’t fit…”

Yue Yang went down with the brocade box in his arms, and soon walked in again.

The head of Huashan looked at Yue Yang who had changed his clothes, and his expression was slightly startled.

He just changed his clothes, but he looked like a different person.

This robe, at first glance, is made of precious silk and satin by skilled craftsmen. The style is grand and luxurious. It is also embroidered with many exquisite patterns using gold and silver threads.

Under the light, there seemed to be brilliance flowing on his body, and his whole person looked like an immortal, as if he was about to ascend to immortality.

Yue Yang wears a jade crown on his head, cloud boots on his feet, and this gorgeous crown dress.

At this moment, the head of Huashan had a strange feeling.

It seems like this is what a master should be like.

He silently stood some distance away.

Compared with Junior Brother Yue, his clothes looked extremely shabby, making it difficult for people to tell who was the leader of Huashan.

Li Nuo looked at Yue Yang and said with a smile: "This outfit really suits Senior Yue. He looks like a master..."

The imperial robes of dignitaries, the official robes of officials, and the royal robes of imperial edicts were all made by the Ministry of Rites.

The best tailors in Daxia are all under the Ministry of Rites. It couldn't be easier to ask them to design a master-style dress.

Yue Yang himself also liked this set of clothes very much.

A smile appeared on his face and he said: "Thank you to the court for me."

Li Nuo took out another jade plaque from his arms. On the jade plaque, there were four characters "Grand Master" engraved on it.

These four characters were designed by Li Nuo himself. The font is majestic and majestic. Just by looking at it, you will feel a sense of heaviness.

Li Nuo handed the jade card to Yue Yang and said: "Senior Yue has kept this card. With this card, no matter where he goes in the future, as long as he is still in Daxia, he can enter the local post house for free and show this card." , if you don’t bow to the official, you can go to the court and give him a seat. If you are dissatisfied with a certain official, you can also directly write to the Ministry of Rites for impeachment..."

Yue Yang carefully took the card and felt that the light jade card suddenly became much heavier.

Although the Grandmaster is respected in the martial arts world, to put it bluntly, this respect is only superficial.

To the court, they were nothing more than civilians.

Having this card means that their identity has been officially recognized by the court.

Even if they say they don't care, who can become a grandmaster? Who hasn't suffered all the hardships of martial arts for a lifetime, and who doesn't want to have some privileges?

This scene made not only the other grandmaster of the Huashan Sect jealous, but even the head of the Huashan Sect was filled with envy.

If you don't bow to the official, you can go to the court and give him a seat, you can directly impeach the court officials... Who is the leader of the Huashan Sect? As the leader, his power is not as powerful as the elders of the sect. How can he convince the disciples of the sect in the future?

Li Nuo looked at the sky and said, "Seniors, it's getting late, so we'll go back first. Please don't blame us if you cause any trouble..."

"Where there..."

"Guys, please walk slowly..."

After sending his family off to Huashan in person, Yue Yang stood at the gate of the sect with a proud look on his face. The head of Huashan and the grandmaster surnamed Cheng fell silent.

Grandmaster surnamed Cheng looked at Yue Yang's gorgeous crown and suddenly said: "Brother, in charge of this martial arts conference, even the Sanqing Sect, which is thousands of miles away, has sent three grandmasters. Our Huashan Mountain is just a stone's throw away from Chang'an. Yao, isn’t it a bit disrespectful to send Junior Brother Yue alone?”

Without waiting for the Huashan leader to answer, he puffed out his chest and said proactively: "How about this, Junior Brother Yue and I will go together, so that we can show the importance of our Huashan sect and avoid causing dissatisfaction with the imperial court and the Sanqing Sect."

The head of Huashan nodded without any hesitation and said: "Junior brother Cheng is right. Our Huashan sect is located in Gyeonggi and is very close to Chang'an. We should pay more attention to it than other sects. I'd better go with you..."

The three quickly reached an agreement on the matter.

In order to show the importance they attached to this matter, all three masters of the Huashan School, including the leader, were dispatched.

Hundreds of miles away.

Hengshan Sect.

The leader of the Hengshan Sect held an invitation in his hand and said in a low voice: "Since the imperial court has sent the invitation, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate not to go, but it would be appropriate to send a few masters..."

The Five Mountains Sword Sect is of the same Qi Lianzhi, and Hengshan and Huashan are relatively close to each other. He plans to ask Huashan for his opinion.

After a while, he wrote a handwritten letter, put it in an envelope, handed it to a disciple, and said: "Take my handwritten letter to the Huashan Sect, give it to the head of the Huashan Sect, and then give his reply. bring……"

A few days later.

Head Hengshan looked at the reply in his hand and asked in surprise: "All three of them are going?"

This made him immediately cancel his original plan.

Originally, he only planned to send one grandmaster there, but they were both from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and the Huashan Sect's grandmasters came out in droves. Three of the four grandmasters from the Hengshan Sect had to go, so as not to be ignored...
