Chapter 32: The Art of Harvesting Yang to Supplement Yang, Yue Buqun’s Fortune  ( Part 1 )

Just then, a servant reported that the feast was ready, and Guo Jing invited everyone back to the hall.

On the way, Linghu Chong noticed his junior sister Yue Lingshan frequently glancing at Wang Xuan, his brows knitting tightly, his mood growing irritable.

At the meal, they naturally split into two tables.

Guo Jing’s family, Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze, and Wang Xuan sat in the main hall.

The Beggar Gang elders and Huashan disciples sat in the courtyard.

*Rank and order observed*, this arrangement was reasonable.

But Linghu Chong grew more agitated, losing his appetite and drinking heavily.

Huashan disciples like Lu Dayou, sensing the reason, didn’t dare intervene, only trying to shift topics to lighten the mood.

In the hall, after three rounds of wine, Yue Buqun couldn’t resist asking about Wang Xuan’s background.

Wang Xuan smiled, repeating what he’d told Guo Jing.

But he added two lines, “This time, I’ve entered the world to select qualified disciples for my sect!”

“Oh?”

Yue Buqun’s eyes lit up, eagerly asking for details.

Learning it was only for female disciples, he glanced at Yue Lingshan.

The gesture was so obvious that everyone present understood.

Especially Ning Zhongze.

She knew her husband’s thoughts *clear as a mirror*.

After the meal, back in their guest room, Yue Buqun discussed with Ning Zhongze.

“You want Shan’er to join the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect? Isn’t that too hasty?”

Ning Zhongze was concerned.

They’d only just met Wang Xuan, and had never heard of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect.

Even giving away a cat or dog would require checking the recipient—how much more their daughter?

She had to be cautious.

“Junior Sister, Wang Xuan looks barely older than Shan’er, yet he tamed that eagle and python single-handedly. His strength likely rivals Hero Guo’s. For a sect to produce such a disciple, how formidable must the hidden Yin-Yang Immortal Sect be?”

“But, Senior Brother?”

“Junior Sister, I understand your worries. How about this: we separately ask Hero Guo and Gang Leader Huang for more details? Given their character, they wouldn’t deceive us!”

Ning Zhongze nodded reluctantly.

She knew her husband was thinking of Huashan’s future.

If Yue Lingshan could study under a great master, all of Huashan’s current troubles could be resolved!

Later, the couple separately approached Guo Jing and Huang Rong to inquire about Wang Xuan and the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect.

“To be honest, Sect Leader Yue, I know little about this!”

Guo Jing, an honest man, said what he knew.

“But from my observations these past days, Young Hero Wang doesn’t seem villainous. With his strength, he has no need to pretend!”

Yue Buqun nodded, finding Guo Jing’s words reasonable.

Meanwhile, when Huang Rong learned Ning Zhongze’s intent, she remained calm outwardly but sighed inwardly.

*It’s over!*

She’d had a premonition earlier.

Not just Yue Lingshan—she feared even Heroine Ning wouldn’t escape *Wang Xuan’s clutches*!

That would mean *mother and daughter sharing a bed*.

The thought of such a scene stirred unease in Huang Rong.

But she was powerless.

She knew Wang Xuan inside out.

He seemed easygoing, but only if you *served him well* first!

Defying him would bring *no good fruit*.

Huang Rong couldn’t muster any resistance against him.

So, though she pitied Ning Zhongze and her daughter, she was *helpless to aid*.

In truth, given Huashan’s dire state, following Wang Xuan might not be bad.

After all, Wang Xuan was genuinely good to his own!

“Madam Guo?”

Ning Zhongze, seeing Huang Rong lost in thought, called softly.

Huang Rong composed herself, flashing her usual smile, and said, “Heroine Ning, I’ve had the same thought. You’ve seen how my two girls cling to Wang Xuan. It’s just that they’re too young, and I’m reluctant to let them go!”

“I see, I understand!”

Ning Zhongze nodded and parted with Huang Rong.

Soon after returning to their room, Yue Buqun came back.

After a brief discussion, the couple decided to talk with Wang Xuan.

At that moment, Wang Xuan was playing with Guo Fu and Guo Xiang, but unlike the past few days, someone else was there.

Yue Lingshan.

As Huashan’s only female disciple, she was fed up with her senior brothers.

Meeting Wang Xuan was like a *spark to her eyes*.

Under the Pure Yang Sacred Body’s allure, her *spring heart surged*.

So, after the meal, she lingered by Wang Xuan’s side under the pretext of playing with Guo Fu and Guo Xiang.

The kind you couldn’t shoo away.

The Huashan disciples weren’t fools; they saw her intentions.

*A maiden’s heart in spring*—human nature!

But poor Senior Brother.

Before, Huashan disciples thought Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan were a pair!

Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze had hinted at it several times.

Now, with Wang Xuan bursting in, the disciples felt Senior Brother was likely to *lose in love*.

After all, in demeanor and skill, he was far outmatched.

Most telling was Yue Lingshan’s blatant attitude.

The once somewhat *spoiled* junior sister on the mountain—where was her willful streak now?

Poor Senior Brother!

Seeing Linghu Chong reeking of wine, Yue Buqun grew angry.

*How could such a state bear Huashan’s burden?*

He ordered disciples to help him back to his room!

“Daddy, why are you here?”

Yue Lingshan, seeing Yue Buqun, stepped forward to greet him.

“Go back to your room. I have words for Young Hero Wang!”

“Oh!”
