How could a smart girl like her not know what Song Qingshu was planning? She was ashamed and angry at the same time, but there was nothing she could do. She could only close her thighs tightly, cover her chest with one hand, and cover her private part with the other.
"I can't help but worry. When I was saved by Zhang Wuji in the Plum Manor, although I knew he was plotting against the Sun Moon Sect, that dog from the East had been stealing the treasure for more than ten years and had already secured the position of the Sect Leader. I was alone, so in order to regain the position of the Sect Leader, I could only pretend to be courteous with him. During the battle in Cheng De Hall, Linghu Chong and Xiang Wentian were both seriously injured, and I was also blinded in one eye. Zhang Wuji's martial arts seemed to be even more terrifying than that dog from the East. Only then did I realize that it's easier to invite a god in than to send him away. "Ren Woxing sat outside the screen and sighed deeply.
"Father's martial arts are unparalleled. When Uncle Xiang and Chong … Brother recover, we naturally won't have to be afraid of that Zhang Wuji." Speaking of Linghu Chong, Ren Yingying couldn't help but think that she was lying naked in a bathtub with another man. She felt a sharp pain in her chest.
"It's easier said than done. Daddy didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry. Your Uncle Xiang's chest acupoint was pierced by that Dongfang bastard. Most of his power has already dissipated. As for that brat Linghu Chong, he was originally a sickly person. If it weren't for Daddy's Astral Protection, I'm afraid he would have already died after taking that Dongfang bastard's palm strike. Now, the internal injuries on his body won't recover without three to five years." Ren Woxing's tone was full of melancholy. To regain the position of the Sect Leader, it was worth it to pay this little loss. Unfortunately, there was a Sect Leader of the Ming Dynasty, so he was restricted by both sides.
"Uncle Xiang, he …" Ren Yingying exclaimed. Since she was young, Xiang Wentian had always been very good to her. In her heart, he was like her own father.
"After the battle that day, we were all seriously injured, but Zhang Wuji took the opportunity to suggest that the Sun Moon Sect should return to the Ming Dynasty. Hehe, our Sun Moon Sect separated from the Ming Dynasty and has been established for more than two hundred years. We have long had nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty. He is obviously taking the opportunity to threaten us by bringing this up." Ren Woxing slammed his palm on the chair, and it was obvious that he was extremely furious. His palm was like a blade, and the armrest of the chair was instantly sliced in half.
"Didn't you manage to deal with it that time?" Ren Yingying asked gently. Looking at the black figure in the water, her brows furrowed. She stretched out her arm and placed it under Song Qingshu's armpit. She exerted a little force, intending to lift him out of the water. To her surprise, not only did the other party not move, but her calf was also held in the other party's hand. Ren Yingying could not help but exclaim when she felt a big hand pinching her leg mischievously.
"What's wrong, Yingying?" Ren Woxing blanked for a moment and turned around to ask.
"It's nothing, father." Ren Yingying clenched her teeth and tried to pull her leg back. She tried a few times, but to no avail. She was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.
"This is the brilliance of Zhang Wuji. He knows that the Sun Moon Sect has been established for more than two hundred years, and from the elders and hall masters to the disciples of the various branches, everyone has a strong sense of identity with our sect. He is worried that if he presses too hard, even if he kills us, he will not be able to control the sect.
There are hundreds of thousands of members of the Sun Moon Sect. Therefore, he changed his strategy and began to coax the middle and lower level disciples. Once he controls this group of power, it will no longer matter whether I, as the sect master, agree to merge the sect or not. "
Ren Woxing cried out that he had miscalculated. After a long time, he finally understood everything. When Zhang Wuji proposed to merge the sect, he actually did not expect Ren Woxing to agree to it. He only used it as a condition to entice Ren Woxing to agree to a series of messy conditions. At that time, when Ren Woxing saw that Zhang Wuji had finally given up on the idea of merging the sect, he heaved a huge sigh of relief and relaxed his vigilance. Now that he thought about it, those seemingly insignificant conditions were now like knives cutting into his flesh.
Ren Yingying was angry and embarrassed when she realized that her calf was being wantonly played with by Song Qingshu. Ever since she became the Holy Nun of the Sun Moon Sect, no man had ever dared to look her in the eye, let alone brazenly molest her. The numb and numb feeling on her leg made her momentarily dazed. She did not hear a single word that Ren Woxing said.
"Among the ten great elders of the Blackwood Cliff, some are the henchmen of that dog Dongfang, and some are in cahoots with Zhang Wuji. There are very few who are truly loyal to father. Also, this time, the Holy Nun sent by the Brightness Peak. Hmph, our Sun Moon Sect has our own Holy Nun. Why would we need the Holy Nun of the Ming Dynasty to give us orders? However, father's strength is at its lowest now, so I can't shed all pretense of cordiality with Zhang Wuji. Although I know that welcoming the Holy Nun of the Ming Dynasty will give the people below the sect the wrong impression that the Sun Moon Sect is a subordinate organization of the Ming Dynasty, I can't care so much. " Ren Woxing's boldness was astonishing, so he was naturally unwilling to be controlled by others. However, he was an ambitious and ruthless person of his generation, so he also understood the principle of forbearance. It was only at this moment that he revealed a trace of helplessness and resentment in front of his daughter.
Although Song Qingshu was a little mischievous underwater, he had been seriously listening to Ren Woxing. When he heard him mention the Ming Dynasty Holy Nun, he immediately pricked up his ears. Unfortunately, he did not obtain any useful information.
Feeling that Song Qingshu had stopped moving, the numbness gradually disappeared, and Ren Yingying could finally breathe a sigh of relief. She had always been resourceful, so when she heard her father's words, a trace of worry formed between her brows. She asked, "Father, do you have any countermeasures?"
Ren Woxing glanced at her through the screen and said in a deep voice, "Father plans to betroth you to Zhang Wuji."
"What?" Not only was Ren Yingying shocked, but Song Qingshu was also shocked and angry. He pinched the skin on Ren Yingying's thigh to express the anger in his heart.
Ren Yingying's skin was already dyed red. When she heard Ren Woxing's words, she couldn't care less about being taken advantage of by Song Qingshu. She hurriedly asked, "Why?"
"Yingying, if you marry Zhang Wuji, then he and I will be a family. The Sun Moon Sect and the Ming Dynasty will naturally no longer be separated, and father won't have to worry about being annexed by the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this the best of both worlds?" Ren Woxing said.
"Father, aren't you going to tell your daughter the truth?" Ren Yingying suddenly pulled her leg back. She wanted to catch Song Qingshu off guard and see if she could escape from his cage. Who knew that she would still be tightly held in his arms. She felt very depressed and couldn't help but let out a faint sigh. Chapter 196: The Secret Beneath the Water
"Yingying has been smart since you were young. I knew I couldn't hide it from you," Ren Woxing smiled. "That's right. Marrying you to Zhang Wuji is only to numb his mind and make him think that the Sun Moon Sect is at his fingertips. Yingying, you can also secretly send messages to me so that I can know his movements in time. "
"Father, you don't have to say anymore. I will not marry him even if I die. If I have to marry, I will only marry Brother Chong." Ren Yingying said resolutely. When she thought about the other man hiding in the bathtub, she was so angry that she kicked him with her other leg. As expected, she was once again held hostage by Song Qingshu.
"What's so good about Linghu Chong? He's always been a sickly invalid. If it wasn't for father's [Absorbing Star] that dispelled the strange True Qi in his body, he would've turned into a pile of bones long ago. His martial arts are so-so. His Solitary Nine Swords is so-so, but compared to Zhang Wuji, the difference is like the clouds and mud. "Ren Woxing stood up angrily and paced back and forth.
"If his martial arts were only so-so, it would've been fine. After all, he could be considered one of us. Unfortunately, he's rigidly adhered to the line between good and evil. All he thinks about is the Mount Hua Sect. Father invited him several times and gave him the position of Left Emissary of Light. When father passes away, he will be the next Sect Leader. What's so bad about that? Who knew that brat wouldn't know what's good for him and rejected father's good intentions several times. If it wasn't for you, Yingying, father would've killed him long ago. Now, he was half crippled by Dongfang Bubai. Just looking at him annoys me. "
"Father, don't say anymore. In any case, I won't marry anyone but Linghu Chong." Both of her legs were grabbed by Song Qingshu. Her pure skin was touched by his hateful hands over and over again. When she heard that her father wanted to separate her and Linghu Chong, Ren Yingying couldn't help but feel sad. She couldn't hold it in anymore and started sobbing.
His wife died young. Ren Woxing had always doted on his daughter. When he heard her crying so sadly, he panicked. "Okay, okay, okay. Father was wrong. I won't force you to marry Zhang Wuji anymore." His tone was filled with endless regret.
After crying out the grievances in her heart, Ren Yingying felt much better. Her rationality also slowly came back. She noticed the unwillingness in Ren Woxing's voice. In order to completely dispel this idea of his, she didn't care about exposing herself. She wiped her tears and said, "Everyone in the world knows about the love affair between the Ming Dynasty Sect Leader and the Mongolian Princess Zhao Min and the Emei Sect Leader Zhou Zhiruo. Father, if you send me there, how am I supposed to live? Do you want me to be a concubine? "
When Ren Woxing heard that her tone had softened, he said happily, "You don't know about this. Zhou Zhiruo has long been married. She's married to someone else, so naturally, she's out of the competition. As for Zhao Min, she was originally the final winner of this love affair. However, for some reason, she suddenly returned to the Ruyang Palace of Mongolia and led an army to cause trouble for the Ming Dynasty. This caused Zhang Wuji to be badly battered. Fortunately, he only sent a Saintess to Blackwood Cliff. Otherwise, if she were to personally oversee this place, he wouldn't be able to be the Sect Leader anymore. Now that there are no other women by his side, if father expressed his intention to marry him now, in order to fight for the secret under the water, he would definitely agree.
With the power of the Sun Moon Sect, they will definitely agree to it. When that time comes, you will surpass them and become the Ming Cult Leader's wife. "
"Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji had a falling out?" When Song Qingshu heard this, he subconsciously tightened his grip and immediately heard Ren Yingying's cry of pain. He didn't care much about it and instead pondered, "They have such a good relationship, how could they have a falling out? Could it be that Zhao Min found out about the matter between me and Zhou Zhiruo? That shouldn't be the case. Zhao Min has always been very clear about the disputes between the two of them. Moreover, the matter at the Lion Slaying Conference proved that I misunderstood. There's no reason for Zhao Min to have a falling out with Zhang Wuji. Could it be that something happened between me and Zhou Zhiruo recently and Zhao Min bumped into it, causing Zhao Min to have a falling out with him … Song Qingshu thought of a certain possibility and his expression instantly became very unsightly.
