Chapter 90 Junior Brother Linghu, I have something to arrange for you!
On the training ground, Lin Pingzhi was sweating profusely.
He crouched down to rest, then swung his sword horizontally, executing the move "White Clouds Emerge" with... a somewhat clumsy air.
His lower body was unstable, his arm swings were weak, and his sword strikes were slow; he was far from the state of "white clouds emerge without intention."
But he gritted his teeth and persevered, adjusting his footwork and sword posture again and again according to his senior brother's guidance, working very hard.
Li Che had heard yesterday that Lotus Peak had become the place where Huashan disciples practiced their qi in the morning.
South Peak is off-limits, and Chaoyang Peak to the east is reserved for the eldest disciple. North Peak, though lower, is the steepest, so there's really no other choice.
This move certainly has the air of imitation, but the spirit behind it is commendable.
After all, the outer sect competition held every three months is the only opportunity to be promoted to inner sect. The senior brother has set the rules: internal strength is the most important, but swordsmanship cannot be neglected either.
Once you cross this threshold, everyone in the outer sect will be a junior disciple; it's indeed quite tempting.
"Junior Brother Lin, if your footwork is unsteady, your waist will be unstable, and your sword will be weak and powerless. There's no need to rush your sword practice. It's more important to solidify your lower body skills."
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother."
Coincidentally, it was Linghu Chong who instructed him in martial arts.
It's been a few days since I last saw him. He seems to have lost some weight, and his dark circles are quite pronounced. I suppose he's been too preoccupied with worries to sleep.
Now, when he sees Dao Ying Bailuo and Yue Lingshan, he has to call them Shi Dui Shijie.
It's inevitable to feel a sense of loss, but it's already a rare achievement that he wasn't expelled from the sect.
Seeing him now, he seemed less carefree and casual than usual, but more serious.
Seeing this, Li Che nodded silently.
If he continues to hide in his room and remain depressed, then Mount Hua will no longer need to consider him.
"Junior Brother Linghu."
"Li... Senior Brother, is there something you need from me?"
Although his words were somewhat hesitant, his expression showed no sign of dissatisfaction.
"I need your help with something."
The side hall door was tightly closed, and the three brothers huddled together.
"The opera house in Weilin Town? Captured someone? Why?"
Linghu Chong looked puzzled. After Li Che gave him a look, Lu Dayou began to explain the reason.
"Is Lao Denuo a spy from Songshan? Wasn't he sent away by his master on a mission a month ago? Furthermore, the Five Mountains Alliance is led by Zuo Lengchan, so why would he use such despicable means against my Huashan?"
"Senior Brother, could there be a mistake?"
Li Che had repeatedly warned him not to tell anyone about Laudenuo's matter, so it was not surprising that he asked this question.
"The matter has been investigated and there is no mistake!" Li Che said firmly, "Junior Brother Linghu, once the person is captured, you and Junior Brother Lu will personally interrogate him."
This must be done discreetly. The two of you will act in the dead of night. Apart from the ringleader, if anyone resists, kill them.
Seeing Linghu Chong stunned and speechless, Li Che said solemnly, "This matter concerns the safety of Mount Hua, so we must not be soft-hearted!"
"Junior Brother Linghu, do you still remember our long talk on that rainy night at the Cliff of Contemplation?"
Linghu Chong met Li Che's gaze and heard him say, "The Songshan Sect sent men to ambush me, but they were killed by me instead. This is the 'trouble' I caused that night!"
After saying this, Li Che ignored the shocked look on his face and turned to leave.
They were kept in the dark about the treacherous nature of human hearts and the unpredictable nature of events, and were instead presented as living in harmony with the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
If you want to use Linghu Chong, you have to make him understand who his enemies and friends are, and make him understand the perilous situation at Mount Hua.
Li Che believed in his feelings for Mount Hua, so let's see if these feelings can awaken his sense of right and wrong regarding Mount Hua!
"Brother Linghu, actually Brother Li..."
"6
Linghu Chong sighed, then interrupted with a smile, "Just call me Junior Brother Linghu, Senior Brother Lu. No need to say more, I understand. When shall we leave?"
After dinner, Li Che finally managed to steal a moment of peace.
The reform of Huashan is not something that can be accomplished overnight. The general direction has been initially set, and the details will be improved later.
He needs to study martial arts and improve his strength as soon as possible.
Before one becomes the best in the world, everything is uncertain.
With a sharp blade hanging over one's head, how can one find joy?
Li Che returned to his room and took out three booklets: "Songyang Double Whip," "Triple Cloud," and "Golden Bell Cover."
The latter two techniques are fine, but the "Songyang Double Whip" is too easily recognizable and cannot be directly taught to Huashan disciples.
Ever since he came across the Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual, the idea of improving the technique has lingered in his mind.
After much deliberation, he decided to practice with these two superb whips first.
Li Che had long been familiar with this whip technique, which followed a powerful and vigorous approach, deeply in line with the internal strength attributes of the Songshan School.
However, Mount Hua is characterized by its unique, perilous, and agile nature, with its internal strength being both gentle and resilient, concealing hidden power.
Whip techniques differ from sword techniques.
Swords can be used to point, stab, chop, slice, and sweep.
The whip strikes, sweeps, wraps, and vibrates.
Using the internal energy of Mount Hua to power this whip technique actually imposes many limitations.
Li Che pondered deeply, and suddenly remembered that the Demonic Sect elder in the dark cave of the Cliff of Contemplation also used a whip in his counter-attack, which must have been a long, soft whip.
It is somewhere between the lengths of Deng Bagong's double whips.
If the whip vibrates, the force will be gentle and the power will be slow. If that's the case... then let's change the move and the whip!
After pondering for a long time, Li Che found a ten-foot-long hemp rope and began practicing in the training ground at midnight.
Just then, Lin Pingzhi, who was diligently practicing his lower body skills, happened to be passing by with his legs wrapped in a rope. He only glanced at Lin Pingzhi and couldn't take his eyes off him.
"Uncle Li even knows how to use a whip?!"
Just then, the hemp rope in Li Che's hand swept across with a hissing sound, and his footwork followed. The whip's momentum seemed fierce, but halfway through, it turned into a "guiding" momentum, the whip bending into an arc, seemingly sticking and pulling.
It then spins like a vortex, and strikes with a shake of the arm.
Such changes are truly dazzling, with every move a lead, a turn, and a transformation, employing both unexpected attacks and seemingly risky tactics.
In an instant, the fallen leaves on the training ground were swept up and spun around Li Che, but they could not get even an inch closer, yet they showed no signs of falling.
Li Che danced more and more skillfully, becoming increasingly agile and fluid, his movements graceful and flexible, yet impenetrable.
This went on for a full hour, with a total of six whip techniques and nearly thirty variations, and countless repetitions.
Lin Pingzhi was unaware that a number of people were already standing around him.
There were two senior brothers, Liang Fa and Ying Bailuo, and more than ten other disciples, both inner and outer disciples.
"Smack—!"
'
With a loud bang, the hemp rope split, and the bluestone slabs on the ground shattered like a spider web.
Li Che's lips trembled slightly. He had used too much force; it was all money!
"Senior Brother!"
"Senior Brother, what kind of whip technique is that? It's incredibly powerful."
Liang Fa, who had been a student for a while, pondered and said, "Senior Brother's whip technique does have some similarities to the Huashan sword technique."
The junior disciples stared intently at him. Li Che smiled and said, "I had a slight inspiration tonight, so I danced casually. There are only six moves, and I haven't named them yet."
"Huh? It was actually created by our senior brother himself?!"
"That's amazing, I can't handle that unexpected move."
"Of course you can't handle it. Senior Brother is unleashing his internal energy; is your body as hard as a stone slab?"
"6
""
The fellow disciples exchanged glances and made their own comments, with several of them showing great interest.
"After I've perfected it a bit and consult with Master, I'll pass it on to everyone." Li Che smiled and said, "Oh, right, there's also a lightness skill. Junior Brother Liang, go to my room and fetch it later. We'll share it with all the disciples tomorrow."
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
Meanwhile, Feng Buping, hidden high above, looked out and felt inexplicably delighted.
I am pleased that this young man keeps his word, and I am also pleased that the man surnamed Yue "does not know" that Mount Hua will soon be ablaze with flowers.
After observing for a moment, he turned back to the Cliff of Repentance.
When I was in Zhongtiao Mountain, I felt both a sword in my heart and resentment.
Since ascending Mount Hua, I have become someone who possesses both a sword and deep thoughts.
Tonight, I went down the cliff on my own, thinking that the enemy was attacking. I was just being paranoid.
