Chapter 808

Zhang Xiaohu snickered. What kind of bewitching words could he say?

All he had to do was to treat the Stone Cow's joints and repair Zhou Mufeng's dantian.

However, when Martial Uncle Bai was spouting nonsense, Zhang Xiaohu had already understood Li Jian's intentions. Now that he heard Yang Ruping's question, he immediately said, "Hall Master Yang, this disciple only went to visit Martial Ancestor Li and explained the recent situation in the hall. As for the matter of me becoming the Chief Disciple, I did not mention a single word. This disciple was also hiding his own selfish motives. Seeing that Martial Ancestor Li was in a bad mood, I was afraid that I would make him unhappy. If I were to be rejected this time, it would be hard to say what would happen in the future!"

When Yang Ruping heard this, she looked at Zhang Xiaohu thoughtfully. When she first came to Shixin Peak, she tried to get in touch with Li Jian. Not to mention from the perspective of Lingering Fragrance Peak, but as Ou Peng's widow, taking care of Li Jian and Liu Qingyang was also something she should do.

Unfortunately, Li Jian did not even want to meet her, which made Yang Ruping extremely embarrassed.

In the next few years, Yang Ruping extinguished the thought of taking care of them on behalf of her husband, but Zhong Pei never gave up on roping them in. Although he failed every time, he could still try again.

Who would have thought that this inconspicuous Zhang Xiaohu only took one trip and actually got it done. Could it be that there was something she did not know?

However, what could make Li Jian compromise?

Well, taking a step back, what did Zhang Xiaohu have that could make Li Jian compromise?

That's impossible!

Compared to the past, Zhang Xiaohu had only participated in the Orchid Dusk Refinement once. In the eyes of Lingering Fragrance Peak's disciples, it was just a little more exciting than the usual outing. Even though this year's Orchid Dusk Refinement had a little accident and Zhang Xiaohu had a little chance and obtained a Cinnabar Fruit, but … in the eyes of Lingering Fragrance Peak, it was just a little bit of dog shit luck. It really did not count as anything!

Then what was the possibility?

Spiritual Herbs?

Zhang Xiaohu didn't have any of the four carriages' worth of spiritual herbs. They were all taken care of by the disciples of the Pharmacy Hall. They were all stored in the warehouse.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Ruping pinched the space between her eyebrows and said, "No matter what, Zhang Xiaohu, you've just become the chief disciple of the Misty Hall and you've already made such a contribution. This hall is really gratified. If I had known …"

Speaking until here, Yang Ruping's heart moved. She immediately changed the topic and said with a smile, "Since Senior Li trusts you so much and our hall has appointed you as the special envoy with full authority, then you should carefully consider it. You should make a plan in your heart and go to the Misty Mountain Villa as soon as possible to contact them.

En, if it's convenient, you can go this afternoon. The earlier the better. It will also show our sincerity! "

When Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he complained in his heart. Nonsense, he couldn't provide the things that they wanted. He had to rely on Zhang Xiaohua. Looking at Zhang Xiaohua and Elder Yu who left in a hurry, Zhang Xiaohu knew that Ou Yan's illness had relapsed. Perhaps, her illness was even more critical. Although his matter was important, it wasn't worth mentioning compared to Ou Yan's life. Zhang Xiaohua definitely wouldn't leave Ou Yan behind to go to the Misty Mountain Villa with him. Since that was the case, what was the use of him going there recklessly?

Was he going to seal her acupuncture points and sit there for a while before telling Li Jian that it was a mistake?

But then again, Hall Master Yang had sent him. How could he refuse?

Even more helpless, Zhang Xiaohu braced himself and forced a smile, "I will obey Hall Master's orders. However, this disciple …"

Yang Ruping frowned and said, "Zhang Xiaohu, do you have any other difficulties?

It's fine. If you do, feel free to tell me. This hall has already helped you! "

Alright, Zhang Xiaohu still wanted to try his luck and stall for time. But when he saw Yang Ruping's frown, he cupped his hands and said, "It's nothing. This disciple just wants to ask. If Martial Ancestor Li has something to discuss with this disciple, what should I do if the time is delayed and he can't return at night?"

This excuse was very reasonable. Yang Ruping looked at Gao Kunheng. Vice Hall Master Feng smiled and said, "It's fine, Martial Nephew Zhang. Since Hall Master Feng has already given you full authority as a special envoy, you can definitely handle such a small matter. Go ahead and do it."

Lingering Fragrance Peak had a strict order forbidding the young disciples of the Misty Mountain Villa from privately meeting with the disciples of the Misty Mountain Villa. There had never been any cases of them staying overnight in the Taowu Mountain Villa. This matter really required Vice Hall Master Feng's approval.

Zhang Xiaohu heaved a sigh of relief. He cupped his hands and bid farewell, "I will obey the orders of the three Hall Masters. This disciple will go and prepare."

After Zhang Xiaohu left, Yang Ruping's expression was somewhat complicated. She looked at Aunt Qin and then at Gao Kunheng. It seemed as though she had something to say, but she also had some misgivings.

When Gao Kunheng saw this, he smiled and said, "Senior Sister Yang, this disciple has already been at Shixin Peak for many days. After seeing Senior Sister manage the Misty Mountain Villa so well, I really admire you. In the future, I will still need Senior Sister's guidance. Please don't be stingy."

Gao Kunheng had vaguely pointed out on the first day he came to the Misty Mountain Villa that his purpose this time was not the same as Zhong Pei's. He only came to assist Yang Ruping, not to compete with her. However, when he saw Zhang Xiaohu, the two of them had some conflicts that could not be considered as competition, which made Yang Ruping feel uncomfortable and somewhat guarded.

At this time, when she heard Gao Kunheng call her Senior Sister instead of Hall Master, she knew that he had made some concessions. She smiled and said, "Junior Brother Feng, you worry too much. The Misty Mountain Villa is our Misty Mountain Villa. It is our common wish to make it beautiful together."

"Cough, cough." Vice Hall Master Gao almost coughed out tears. However, he still cleared his throat and said, "Senior Sister Yang, just now did you feel that the change of Li Jian of the Misty Mountain Villa was a little strange?"

Yang Ruping hesitated for a moment. In fact, she wanted to discuss this with Aunt Qin privately behind Gao Kunheng's back. When she heard him say it directly, she had to nod and said, "Yes. Not to mention me, even Zhong Pei met with a nose full of dust. Zhang Xiaohu only went there once. How could it be so easy for him to settle it?"

Gao Kunheng smiled and said, "Senior Sister Yang, as the ancient saying goes, 'Those involved can't see the game clearly'. You are in the game. Of course, you can't see it clearly as an outsider like me."

Yang Ruping was even more surprised. Glancing at the silent Aunt Qin, she turned to Gao Kunheng and asked, "Junior Brother Feng, please explain it to me."

"I don't dare."

Gao Kunheng smiled and said, "In fact, long before coming to the Shixin Peak, I have a general understanding of the situation of the Misty Mountain Villa. Although they have persisted for several years, their situation is getting worse and worse. Although Li Jian and others are supporting them, what can they do under our Shixin Peak?

This compromise is just a matter of time. "

"Oh …" Yang Ruping nodded slightly. Zhong Pei had said the same thing many years ago, but Li Jian insisted on being self-sufficient and used practice to refute Zhong Pei's fallacy. This reason was obviously not convincing enough.

Then Gao Kunheng said again, "Of course, this reason is slightly insufficient. The more important reason should be … Oh, Senior Sister Yang, have you heard of the story of the ancient people buying horse bones with a thousand gold coins?"

Yang Ruping was stunned and immediately understood. She said with a look of understanding, "Junior Brother Feng, do you mean that the Misty Mountain Villa's compromise is related to our important use of Zhang Xiaohu, the direct disciple of the Misty Mountain Villa?"

Gao Kunheng looked as if he had a card up his sleeve and said with a smile, "Yes, this is also the reason why the Hierarch wants to use Zhang Xiaohu!"

Yang Ruping, on the other hand, was somewhat regretful. It was not that she had not thought of putting Zhang Xiaohu in an important position, but this so-called direct disciple's martial arts were just passable. It was not enough to convince the masses. Since the Misty Hall was newly established, they had to find some people with strong martial arts to support the facade and give Yang Ruping courage. This Zhang Xiaohu's name only flashed in the list of candidates and was forgotten in the corner.

She didn't expect that the direct disciple could be used in this way and had such a strong appeal!

Thinking of this, Yang Ruping was quite depressed. Once again, she felt that she was really not suitable to be the head of the Misty Mountain Villa.

In fact, Yang Ruping also thought wrongly. As the ancients said, "Times create heroes". Well, there was also a saying, "Times are different". When the Misty Mountain Villa was newly established, the role of the direct disciple of the Misty Mountain Villa like Zhang Xiaohu was limited. Even if he was used by Yang Ruping, it might not be as effective as today. But now, the situation had changed, and it was the time for Zhang Xiaohu to rise. It was this kind of authentic direct disciple who was used at the right time that had such an unexpected effect.

Of course, the timing and the situation were not what Yang Ruping and Gao Kunheng thought.

The extreme asymmetry of the news determined that it was impossible for them to know the powerful driving force behind Zhang Xiaohu — Zhang Xiaohua!

Gao Kunheng saw Yang Ruping's frustrated face and comforted her, "In fact, this is also the arrangement of the Hierarch. How can we reach her wisdom?

Senior Sister Yang, you don't have to do this. "

Then, he cleared his throat and said, "Li Jian and the others are all loyal to the Misty Mountain Villa. Their righteousness is just that 'the Misty Mountain Villa should be the Misty Mountain Villa'. Senior Sister Yang pushed Zhang Xiaohu to the front. Although they don't know that Zhang Xiaohu is already the First Disciple, from this signal, they can see that Senior Sister Yang wants to borrow the strength of the original Misty Mountain Villa. So, they are willing to go with the flow and get off the donkey."

Yang Ruping nodded and smiled, "Junior Brother Kuang is indeed far-sighted. No matter what, it is a good thing for Senior Brother Li to make such a decision. Let's do this good thing until the end!"

"I will follow Yang Tang's suggestion," Gao Kunheng said respectfully.

Yang Ruping was very satisfied. Then, she frowned and said to Aunt Qin, who had been absent-minded, "Deputy Hall Master Qin, don't you have any objections?"

"Oh?" Aunt Qin seemed to have just woken up. She forced a smile and said, "No, I don't have any objections.

I agree with what the two of you have said. "

En, it was obvious that Aunt Qin was not listening at all just now …
