The Counterattack of the Villains

After the announcement of the dissolution of the Five Mountains Alliance was issued, Li Mu took the lead and obtained the support of Shaolin Master Fang Zheng and Wudang Chongxu Taoist Master to hold a hero conference in Huashan.

All the righteous sects gathered in Huashan to discuss the matter of wiping out the remnants of the demon sect, but the Songshan sect was the only one absent.

It's not that he didn't invite them, Li Mu's situation wasn't that small yet, so he also sent hero posts to Songshan.

But when he saw that Li Mu was the leader of the conference, Ding Mian, who had taken over as the head of Songshan, ignored it.

In the hearts of the Twelve Taibao of Songshan, although Zuo Lengchan had some faults, in the final analysis it was Li Mu who killed Zuo Lengchan.

If Li Mu had not said those words, Zuo Lengchan would not have misjudged Ren Woxing's strength and acted rashly.

If Li Mu had directly defeated Ren Woxing, Zuo Lengchan would not have died either.

In their opinion, the Songshan Sect is still the largest sect in the Five Mountains even without Zuo Lengchan. Without their participation, this Heroes Conference would be a joke.

It's a pity that they don't understand that the world will turn around the same without anyone else.

This act of arrogance and anger caused them to make a huge miscalculation and laid the most direct root cause for the decline of the Songshan Sect.

At the conference, after Li Mu made a suggestion, all the sects unanimously approved after deliberation, Shaolin, Wudang, Huashan, Hengshan, Hengshan, Taishan, Kunlun, Qingcheng, Emei, and Kongtong were collectively called the top ten sects of the Right Way.

The absent Songshan sect was directly excluded from the top ten sects, and Zhengdao Wulin did not let them play anymore.

He also designated the Beggar Gang and the Giant Whale Gang as the two major gangs of the Righteous Path.

This giant whale gang is no longer the small maritime gang in the Yitian era.

After 156 years of accumulation and several generations of talented and strategic gang leaders, the Giant Whale Gang has developed into a super gang whose power is only lower than that of the Beggars Gang.

They are entrenched on the southeastern coast, defending the coastal people against Japanese pirates, destroying pirates, protecting merchant ships, and ensuring peace.

In the event of a natural disaster, they would open warehouses to release grain and provide relief to the victims, which earned them a high reputation and reputation.

If the imperial court had something to do and needed help from the Giant Whale Gang, they would never shirk the responsibility, and they were quite favored by the imperial court, which would facilitate them in various policies.

This is also the reason why the Giant Whale Gang can develop to the point it is today.

The only thing they are inferior to the Beggar Clan is that they do not have their own martial arts inheritance.

Although there are many people, 90% of the gang members are just ordinary people. Those with a little bit of fists and kicks can become leaders, and those with slightly better skills can become high-level people.

The martial arts skills of the gang leader Li Mubai are only second-rate. There is no way to compare him with the top masters in the world like Jie Feng, the leader of the Beggar Clan.

The Beggar Clan, like the former Five Mountains Sword Sect, usually goes about doing chivalry, fighting injustices, and upholding justice.

Occasionally, they also gathered manpower to exterminate bandits and bandits who had caused serious disasters, making outstanding contributions to the public security of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, these two gangs are both favored by the imperial court. They are designated as the two righteous gangs, and no one has anything to say.

Emei and Kongtong were already in decline, but this time they were ranked among the top ten sects, which naturally brought considerable benefits.

Not only will your reputation increase greatly, but you will also receive various assistance and support, and your sect will surely gradually revive.

The head of Emei, Master Jin Guang, and the head of Kongtong, Taoist Priest Liyun, felt grateful to Li Mu and secretly decided to follow the lead of the Huashan Sect in the future.

Including the three sects of Hengshan, Hengshan and Taishan, five of the ten major sects are friendly to the Huashan sect.

Fang Zheng and Chongxu were also very friendly to Li Mu because of his upright behavior and gentlemanly demeanor.

Although it is impossible to be as obedient to the Huashan Sect as the other five sects, it does not hesitate to show its support for some matters that require the support of public opinion.

For Li Mu, this is enough, because the support of public opinion often represents "righteousness" and occupies the moral high ground.

After the conference ended, Li Mubai, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang, approached Li Mu privately and proposed to him that he would like to invite several masters from the Huashan sect to go to the head of the Giant Whale Gang to help train the gang members and teach them some martial arts.

The Giant Whale Gang will pay a generous reward to the Huashan Sect every year.

Although as long as you have money, you are not afraid of finding good martial arts masters, but in the past, when the martial arts masters were hired to train the gang members, they were always hidden and taught only superficial knowledge and did not teach the real skills at all.

The Huashan Junzi Sword is well-known in the world, and the most important thing is that this move can also build a relationship with the Huashan Sect.

Li Mubai was naturally willing to spend more money to hire people from the Huashan sect to train the gang members.

This situation is one of the sources of income for the Jianghu sect, and Li Mu will not refuse. Moreover, he also wants to establish a relationship with the Giant Whale Gang.

After Li Mubai told the story, he immediately called three men, two women and five disciples.

The men are all servants of the upper generation, and the women are also the first batch of maids to go up the mountain. One man and one woman are husband and wife.

In front of Li Mubai, Li Mu handed over the old Huashan internal skills and mental skills that he eliminated, as well as the secrets of Huashan swordsmanship, to the leader Zhang Dayong.

Li Mu told them not to hide their secrets when teaching martial arts to the Giant Whale Gang. Both Huashan Internal Skills and Huashan Swordsmanship can be taught freely.

Li Mubai was so excited that tears filled his eyes and he didn't know what to say.

The martial arts masters hired by the Giant Whales in the past were able to teach the real kung fu of three punches and two kicks in a serious manner, and they were considered to have a conscience.

He simply didn't dare to think about such a thing as internal strength. He didn't even understand internal strength himself, and his second-rate level was the limit of his life.

Not to mention the powerful Huashan swordsmanship.

You must know that back then, the Huashan Sect relied on this swordsmanship to securely sit at the top of the Five Mountains and lead the group for decades.

Li Mubai was extremely grateful to Li Mu and recognized Li Mu as his adopted brother on the spot.

Li Muzi readily accepted that the Giant Whale Gang had people and the Huashan Sect was powerful. The two could be described as a powerful combination, which would have unparalleled benefits for the future development of the Huashan Sect.

Moreover, Li Mubai's name is similar to his real name, and this man is also a rare gentleman. Li Mubai is very happy to become sworn friends with him.

…

After the Heroes Conference ended, a bloody storm broke out in the world to annihilate the remnants of the Demon Cult.

Demonic cult branches in various places were dug out one by one and were surrounded and suppressed by the righteous people with all their strength.

All characters and forces related to the Demonic Cult were destroyed.

After the great chaos came the Great Rebellion. After three years of this, the Demon Cult disappeared from the world, and all the surviving Demon Cult members fled to the southwest mountains to escape the disaster.

The name of the Sun Moon God Sect has been completely eliminated since then.

Although some remnants of the demon sect who have hidden deeper are still active, they are only making small troubles and cannot cause any more trouble.

The pattern of martial arts has changed drastically since then and it has entered a new era, but the Songshan School has not kept up with the trend of the times.

Due to Li Mu's various actions, the martial arts community in the Central Plains showed a prosperous situation.

Also because of the influence of Li Mu and the Giant Whale Gang, more people devoted themselves to resisting Japanese pirates and eradicating pirates.

The Huashan Jun Zijian couple's prestige in the world is at its peak, and Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and others have also become famous. They are respectfully known as the "Gentleman's Four Swordsmen" by people in the world.
