Chapter 1157 We Must Be Careful
If she were still a little girl, she would definitely cry her eyes out because of those words.
Those were tears of joy.
It's a very precious emotion; she never had it in her past life.
very nice.
Therefore, she cannot let others down.
Over the next two weeks, she assigned many tasks to the children.
Then, she began her seclusion.
The eldest and youngest senior brothers, namely Lord Zhao and Zhang Chengxuan, also went into seclusion one after another.
Before going into seclusion, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal summoned them together and gave them some precious words of advice.
They also gave each of them a set of sword techniques, tailored to their individual circumstances.
"I wasn't particularly good at sword cultivation originally. I found these sword manuals from elsewhere. You should practice them well. If you can all achieve enlightenment, it would be right for me to owe you a few more favors."
Lord Zhao accepted it with both hands, saying, "Thank you, Master."
"The three of us will go into seclusion together, and we'll leave everything on the mountain to you."
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I couldn't even take care of them, I wouldn't have taken them as disciples in the first place."
"Even if things turn upside down outside, I guarantee that no one will cause trouble at Lingyun Mountain. And to the people of Kongtong Mountain, we will not allow any martial arts forces to wreak havoc here."
Song Chunxue knew that their master had that ability.
In fact, these things were insignificant to him.
This retreat has lasted longer than any previous one.
Only when Song Chunxue grasped the Overlord Sword and practiced swordsmanship every day did she understand why it was called the Overlord Sword.

One year later.
Song Chunxue emerged from seclusion and led her two disciples down the mountain for training.
Actually, she didn't want to go down the mountain.
But Master said that if I don't go down the mountain, don't see the suffering of the people, don't bring convenience to others, and don't lead people to the Tao, wouldn't I have cultivated in vain?
Let her learn more from her senior.
She then suddenly realized that she had forgotten her original intention.
She used to look up to Zhang Chengxuan as a role model.
She was brought onto this path by Master Zhang.
The reason she didn't want to go down the mountain was because she knew better than anyone how much suffering the people in the world endured.
She was afraid she wouldn't be able to face it.
“Alright, I’ll take Changfeng and Changyun down the mountain. I’ve kept them trapped for a year.”
The turmoil outside has subsided, and they can now descend the mountain with the swords they retrieved from Ten Thousand Swords Mountain.
“Alright, then you go to Siping Mountain to find your junior brother. He and Tudan’er ran into some trouble and asked me for help. I was just wondering who to send.” Banyue Immortal nodded repeatedly. “You are the most suitable. It would be best if you two went.”
Lord Zhao and Taoist Zhang emerged from seclusion six months earlier than her.
Lord Zhao has already taken his personal disciples to the capital and will return along the coast.
Master Han and Lord Xie were also on the mountain.
She asked her two disciples and learned that they had returned shortly after the disciples went into seclusion.
The situation in the capital is becoming increasingly unstable, and Master Han and Lord Zhao have been frequently traveling to the capital over the past six months.
But it is said that compared to previous years, many parasites have been eliminated, and the lives of ordinary people have not worsened.
I don't know what Lord Zhao did, but he used to be at odds with the Emperor, and now he has become the Emperor's strategist and has even been granted a pardon by the Emperor.
When Song Chunxue arrived at Siping Mountain, she realized that it was very close to Zhang Chengxuan's hometown.
Indeed, everyone has their own selfish desires, and ultimately, people tend to think more about their hometown.
The troubles my senior encountered were quite complicated.
There is a city at the foot of Siping Mountain called Suicheng.
Although the city is not large, it is a transportation hub, so the magistrate sent here was once a military general.
This military officer was not a particularly wicked person, but he was definitely not an honest official either.
Zhang Chengxuan encountered a mother and son crying out for justice. He wrote their complaint for them and personally stepped in to seek justice for them. The county magistrate was not bribed and ruled in their favor.
However, there was one condition: the county magistrate had to allow Zhang Chengxuan to stay in the county office for a year and serve as his strategist.
Furthermore, his daughter took a liking to Tudan'er and insisted on marrying her off to him.
Zhang Chengxuan and Tudan'er were naturally unwilling, so the county magistrate used this matter to put on airs and delayed closing the case.
They were drinking in the inn's tavern, and Song Chunxue listened to their complaints, unable to offer any comment.
What help can she offer?
“Many hands make light work, junior brother. We’re out of ideas, can you help us think of something?” Zhang Chengxuan poured her some wine and asked the waiter for a large pork knuckle. “You just came here after leaving the pass, you must be really craving this. You can eat and think about it, we’re not in a hurry.”
Song Chunxue looked at Tu Dan'er, who seemed much taller and more robust. He was indeed handsome, with a resolute and steady demeanor that was not common among ordinary people.
"Didn't you catch them red-handed?"
Zhang Chengxuan shook his head, "It's not a good time to make a move."
"Then you can agree to their terms first, and we'll talk about it after the case is closed." Changyun had already started to take action against Zhouzi.
“It’s no use. They want Tudan’er to marry their daughter first.” Zhang Chengxuan said helplessly, his face wrinkled with worry. “We’ve tried everything.”
"Then we'll have to settle things with fists. Let's go meet him together tomorrow." Song Chunxue tapped the table. "Tomorrow, the three of us, master and apprentice, will play your crazy friends from the martial arts world, okay?"
Seeing her confidence, Zhang Chengxuan's brows relaxed instantly. "Junior brother, you may elaborate, but there is one thing: he seems to have many ties with Jianghu gangs, so we must be careful."
