Chapter 467 Long time no see
“When I was a man, I was handsome and dashing.

"When I'm a woman, I'm very charming."

The woman on the Hundred Demons Throne chuckled:
"But you're really not surprised at all to see me like this?"

"Ning Wufang has explained everything. Even if I'm a fool, I know what's going on."

Chu Qing stepped into the hall:

“What’s more, since you’ve appeared here, I think you’ve already met Ning Wufang.

"Where did he go?"

"He colluded with the Tianxie Cult and destroyed the Ghost Emperor Palace. Even though he did it for me, he still did something wrong."

Hua Jin said in a young voice:
"So I decided to imprison myself in a dungeon for twenty years to atone for my sins."

"It's still a bit of a responsibility."

Chu Qing nodded:

"So, what's your name?"

"Just call me Hua Jinnian. I like this name very much. My mother's maiden name is Hua."

Hua Jin answered in a young voice, then looked at Wu Qianhuan and Wen Rou:
"Long time no see, you two."

Wu Qianhuan took a deep breath:

"It turns out she is actually a woman..."

"unexpected."

Tenderly gaze at Hua Jinnian:
"How on earth did you do that?"

"The gentleness of the past didn't seem to ask such questions."

Hua Jinnian was a little surprised, but he didn't say much. He just smiled and said:

“It is a martial art. As you know, the Ghost Emperor Palace’s martial arts combine both good and evil.

“What I’m using is a magic skill that was passed down from the Demon Cult in the past. The specific name is unknown, but we only know that this martial art can allow a person to change into any person’s appearance.

“It’s a pity that although this magic skill is powerful, most of it has been lost.

"I combined the few remaining words and phrases with some other methods to create this method of shaping the Yijing.

"It is named [Qian Kun Bian], changing yin to yang, reversing the universe.

“Although it’s impossible to change all of them, at least if I don’t take off my clothes, no one can tell my true condition from the outside.

"Even our famous Third Young Master has not seen through it."

"What a great [Change of the Universe]."

Chu Qing sneered.

Hua Jinnian laughed dryly:
"Don't be angry, you probably already know my situation... I really had no choice but to do this.

"That man is blind and can't tell good from bad. I am extremely disappointed in him.

“Since I left Ghost Emperor Palace, I have no desire to use Ghost Emperor Palace’s martial arts anymore.

“【Qian Kun Transformation】is my own creation, and cannot be considered a method of the Ghost Emperor Palace.

“【Different Sword Techniques】was acquired by chance, and it is not inherited from the Ghost Emperor Palace… I just want to rely on my own abilities to avoid him saying that I am using his martial arts to disobey him.

"Humph, I just want him to know that even if I don't use his skills, I can still surpass him and avenge my mother."

"So, you still hate him?"

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows.

"Ok?"

Hua Jinnian looked at Chu Qing with a strange look:
"Do you think I should hate him?"

"I have no right to interfere in your affairs."

Chu Qing doesn't intend to take a stand in this matter.

Hua Jinnian smiled:
“You are a person who has always been scheming. In fact, I don’t quite understand you.

“I can see that you actually hate trouble.

“I will try my best to stay out of things that I can avoid, but sometimes, I have to interfere in things that I can just leave alone.

“It’s hard to fathom…

“You asked me if I still hated him.

"Yes! Of course I hate him!

“My mother’s death was not caused by that person, but she is also a victim.

“But that person is the Ghost Emperor, but he can’t even tell whether the person next to him is a human or a ghost. Shouldn’t I hate him?
"Ever since Ning Wufang told me what you said, I even thought... maybe that person doesn't love anyone.

“His mother died tragically, but he didn’t seek an answer.

"My aunt was used as a substitute by someone else. They sleep together every day, but we can't even tell who is real and who is fake!

"You want to say how much he cares about them, why can't I see it at all?

"If it was really my aunt who killed my mother, I would just hate him for not knowing people well, or for protecting my aunt.

"but now……"

When she said this, she let out a long breath:

"We won't talk about these dirty things.

"It's a good thing that we meet again today. The Ghost Emperor Palace is hosting a banquet, and we won't leave until we are drunk."

Chu Qing looked at Hua Jinnian deeply and nodded gently:

"it is good."

Bai Yushu had given the orders early in the morning and the banquet soon began.

There were not many people at the table, only Chu Qing and his group, Hua Jinnian and Bai Yushu.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Hua Jinnian's face turned red. He held Wenrou's hand and said with a sad face:
"Girl Wenrou... I advise you to open your eyes and see clearly.

“No man is good!

“I thought he was deeply in love with you, but it turns out that he actually has a fiancée at home.

"He's just a big liar! You, you must not be fooled.

"Look at my mother...she believed that man's lies, and ended up dead.

"Women should be strong and never trust men!"

Chu Qing's mouth twitched. This guy...it was fine that he disguised himself as a man to deceive people in the past, but now that he has restored his original appearance, why is he pretending to be crazy and talking nonsense while drunk?
After all this time, is this what she thinks of herself?
No wonder I felt Hua Jinnian was in a strange mood after reuniting with Wu Qianhuan.

I originally thought that she didn't know Wu Qianhuan's identity and was attracted by her charm... Later, after she found out about the relationship between Wu Qianhuan and herself, she became sad.

The result is actually like this?

She blinked her big eyes gently, looking at Hua Jinnian without blinking. Her eyes were clear and confused.

Wu Qianhuan poured a glass of wine and put it into Hua Jinnian's hand:

"Talk less, drink more."

Hua Jinnian nodded repeatedly:
"Drink, drink!"

She raised her cup and drank three cups in one breath before looking at Chu Qing.

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows, wanting to hear what ivory this dog's mouth could spit out.

Then she said in a deep voice:
“I felt like I didn’t know him anymore.

“When I was young, I thought he was a hero…

“Growing up, I thought he was a hateful, heartless man.

“But now, he is neither a hero nor a traitor.

“He seems… a person I can’t understand.

"They say he is deeply in love, but what he actually does is not even remotely close to the meaning of deeply in love.

“No matter how powerful the Tianxie Cult’s methods are, how could they possibly hide from his eyes and ears?

"Do you know...what I am most afraid of now?"

Chu Qing raised his glass and gently moved it forward without saying a word.

Hua Jinnian drank the wine in his cup:

"If that's the case, I... I'm afraid I really need you to do something for me." "Think about it first."

"I see……"

She paused:
"I know the purpose of your return. We will discuss all this after this matter is over."

"it is good."

Chu Qing nodded.

It was a happy gathering and ended in great joy.

They rested in the Ghost Emperor Palace that night. The next morning, Chu Qing wanted to say goodbye to Hua Jinnian and walk out from Tongtian Ridge, which would lead directly to Tianyi Gate.

Although the time is a little early, it is not much different from the official date.

But when he saw Hua Jinnian, Chu Qing was stunned.

The charming woman yesterday is now a handsome man with delicate features.

This guy...changed from a female to a male again?

She held a folding fan and chuckled:
"Sir, are you ready to set off? Let's go."

"This shouldn't be a sudden idea."

"I've already made the decision, so I've been waiting for you."

"Then why didn't you say it yesterday?"

"It's a surprise for you."

"……thank you."

Hua Jinnian plans to go to Tianyi Sect's martial arts conference with Chu Qing to rescue the Ghost Emperor.

Chu Qing didn't intend to ask more about what to do next.

Last night, through some drunken conversation at the banquet, the two of them reached a certain degree of tacit understanding.

That’s enough for now.

With the real eldest lady of the Ghost Emperor Palace leading the way, one can naturally walk freely in Tongtian Ridge.

On the way, Chu Qing also asked about Gong Yangchou and Gu Ling'er's situation.

Hua Jinnian looked at Chu Qing with a strange look:
"You suspect I killed them?"

"That's not you."

"That's not certain."

Hua Jinnian let out a long breath:

“When I hated him the most, I wanted to drag the entire Ghost Emperor Palace to be buried with him.

“But I did not kill Gong Yangqiu and Gu Ling’er…they left.

"I didn't see them when I came back."

There was no need for Hua Jinnian to lie, but Chu Qing was a little puzzled. Where could Gu Ling'er and Gong Yangchou go?
Are you worried that Ning Wufang, who was disguised as Bai Yushu at the time, will come back for revenge?
So you left Tongtianling and sought another way to make a living?

Or is there another reason?

This problem cannot be solved for the time being, so let's put it aside for now.

A few days later, Chu Qing and his group arrived at Tianyi Gate.

As soon as they walked out of Tongtian Ridge, the old Taoist priest, the head of Tianyi Sect, who had a fairy-like appearance, quickly appeared in front of Chu Qing and others.

Bowing and kowtow, very politely:
"Greetings to the Third Young Master, and everyone else."

"Senior, you're welcome."

Chu Qing clasped his fists slightly:

"I was able to enter Tongtian Ridge thanks to the help of my predecessors.

"As the martial arts conference is about to be held today, I have come here in advance to wait for the conference to begin. I apologize for the inconvenience."

"Hahaha, Third Young Master, you are too serious."

The old master smiled and said:

"You are a distinguished guest whom I cannot invite on ordinary days. I always feel regretful when we parted in a hurry last time.

"This time we have to have a good reunion at our Tianyi Gate.

"Speaking of which... Young Master, you came at the perfect time today. The eighth day of the sixth lunar month is just around the corner. Many friends from the martial arts world have come to Tianyi Sect one after another. I think there may be some old friends of yours."

"Oh?"

Chu Qing was stunned:
"Then we should meet them. I wonder which old friends are coming?"

"Everyone, please follow me."

The old Taoist priest turned around and led Chu Qing and his group into Tianyi Gate.

Wu Qianhuan is thinking about Xue Zhongqing.

That was her beloved horse. Because it was difficult to tell the direction in Tongtianling and the roads were complicated, it was difficult for horses to pass, so when she passed by Tianyi Gate, she left Xue Zhongqing in Tianyi Gate.

While explaining Xue Zhongqing's current situation to Wu Qianhuan, the old Taoist priest came to the main hall of Tianyi.

Before I even entered the door, I heard a burst of hearty laughter coming from the hall.

But the words seemed a little impolite:

"Hahaha, your Fiery Hall is really amazing. If you're not convinced, the worst that can happen is that we can fight again in Ghost God Gorge!"

"Stop your spiral bend bullshit. If it wasn't for the young master saving you, how could the Iron Blood Hall be here to challenge us?"

"Alas, Beitang Zun was beaten to death at that time, and he came to our Tiexuetang, and we treated him well. You are not grateful for saving his life, and you rob us of our livelihood every day. This is simply unreasonable!"

"Who stole your business? Do you have any shame? That was originally our Liehuotang's business, and you interfered.

"I don't care. If you don't give me a 30% discount, I'll chop off your claws if you dare to touch this business again."

Chu Qing listened to the two people talking and found a voice very familiar. After thinking for a while, he knew it was Cheng Tieshan.

The other one was more familiar...a woman's voice.

You are full of bandit spirit, are you thinking about peace of mind?
These two young nuns with long hair who were practicing Buddhism didn't go up the mountain to become bandits, so why did they come here to argue with Cheng Tieshan?
Thinking this in my mind, I stepped over the threshold and saw a group of people gathered together.

He was stunned and took a quick look, then he saw Tie Lingyun, Beitang Zun, Cheng Tieshan, Tie Chuqing, Nian Xin and Nian An were all present.

There was another person trying to stop the fight, with a righteous look on his face and sweat all over his forehead:

"We are all family, so why don't you all take a step back and say less? Why do you have to make such a fuss over a few taels of silver?"

It was Cao Qiupu, the White Horse and Golden Sword...

"It's quite lively here."

Chu Qing coughed, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and the entire Tianyi Main Hall paused slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Beitang Zun stood up and knelt down in front of Chu Qing:

"Master!!"

Tie Lingyun also stood up hurriedly, clasped his hands and said:
"I've met the young master."

"Boss, you are finally back!!!"

Nianxin and Nian'an were filled with joy and hurried over to him. Nianxin pointed at Cheng Tieshan with her finger:
"He's a bully!!"

Cheng Tieshan waved his hands randomly:
"I, I, I, I didn't... Third Young Master, with your current status and position, you can't compete with me. That would be murder for money."

Cao Qiupu was also greatly relieved when he saw Chu Qing:

"Third brother, long time no see, are you well?"

Chu Qing couldn't help but smile. He had been in Lingbei for a long time, and seeing these old friends from Nanling again, he felt as if he was in another world.

The scenes that I experienced in Nanling couldn't help but come to my mind.

He spoke softly:
"Everyone, long time no see."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming quickly from outside the door, and saw a young Taoist priest running hurriedly to the front of Tianyi Main Hall.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Chu Qing and was immediately shocked:
"It's you?"

Chu Qing was stunned, and actually forgot the identity of this little Taoist priest.

As a result, the young Taoist took two steps back, avoiding Chu Qing's sight, and said to the head of the Tianyi Sect:
"Master, someone broke into Tianyi Sect."
