Chapter 136: Ouyang Sha's Arrival
The small courtyard where Ning Yuan and a few others lived became lively with Li Yan's arrival, as if a small gathering was being held in the ancestral hall. He Yuntang, who was still responsible for receiving guests at the gate of the ancestral hall, would occasionally hear reports from his disciples, and his mood was not to be mentioned, absolutely not a bit of depression and bitterness.
This time, Li Yan joined the Jiuxuan Gate in the Earth Sect, not only adding a powerful person to the Jiuxuan Gate, but also slapping the Earth Sect in the face, and making the relationship between the two sects that were originally close even more harmonious.
As the time was approaching five o'clock in the afternoon, fewer and fewer fellow travelers came to the place. He Yuntang was about to leave when a car slowly drove up from a distance.
The car door opened, and a man in his late sixties stepped out of the car. On the other side, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl got out. The girl was wearing casual sportswear, her long hair tied back casually, looking youthful and capable, with a faint smile on her face that could dispel all worries at a glance.
Especially the girl's eyes and pupils, clear and pure to the point of being untouchable.
Seeing the girl getting off the bus, He Zhenyu, who was standing next to He Yuntang, suddenly lit up his eyes, and his originally careless face instantly became stunned, as if he had been struck by a flower.
After the girl got off, another tall young man emerged from the car. The young man was also eighteen or nineteen years old, with a strong physique. As soon as he got off the bus, he stood together with the girl, and for a moment, a sharp light flashed in He Zhenyu's somewhat dull eyes.
"Mr. Ouyang has arrived, and the place is filled with splendor." Seeing the old man getting off the car, He Yuntang hurriedly went forward to greet him and warmly said.
"Hehe, you're being too polite." The old man chuckled and introduced, "This is my granddaughter, Ouyang Shasha. She's studying in university in Shangjiang City. I brought her here to broaden her horizons. And this is one of my younger generation, Liu Dong, who can be considered as half of my disciple."
This old man was none other than Ouyang Shasha's grandfather, Ouyang Zhendong. According to the generation order, Ouyang Zhendong is one generation lower than Ningyuan's master Qingping Daoren, and is a senior of the Jianghu with He Zhenghui, Yao Xinyan, Li Yan and others. Naturally, he would not miss such a grand gathering in the Jianghu. At the same time, he also brought Ouyang Shasha and Liu Dong to broaden their horizons.
Although both Ouyang Shasha and Liu Dong were still in school, such a grand gathering was rare, and the two had also reached an age where they should understand the ways of the world.
"He is Uncle He." Upon hearing Ouyang Zhende introduce himself, Ouyang Sha and Liu Dong hastily paid their respects to He Yuntang.
When he saw Ouyang Sha speaking, He Zhenyu hastily moved forward, eager to introduce himself. However, since He Yuntang hadn't spoken up, he didn't dare to speak casually.
He Yun Tang also saw the appearance of his own son, knowing that his son had taken a liking to Ouyang Zhen De's granddaughter, and he didn't mind it either. Smiling, he introduced him to Ouyang Zhen De: "This is my youngest son, He Zhen Yu."
"Nice to meet you, Grandmaster Ouyang." He Zhenyu hastily bowed his fist in greeting to Ouyang Zhendu, and after the greeting, he looked at Ouyang Shasha: "Nice to meet you, junior sister."
"Hello, Master He." Ouyang Shasha's face wore a faint smile as she nodded politely at He Zhenyu.
"Little sister is being polite." He Zhenyu hastily said: "Little sister has just arrived at the sect, do you want me to take you around to get familiar with the environment?"
"No need, thank you, Master He." Ouyang Sha said politely.
Seeing He Zhenyu only talking to Ouyang Shasha and ignoring himself, Liu Dong felt a bit disgusted with He Zhenyu. He lightly patted Ouyang Shasha's shoulder and said: "Little Shasha, I heard that Ning Ge is also here, let's go find him."
"Alright." Upon hearing Liu Dong's proposal, Ouyang Sha Sha nodded and said to Ouyang Zhen De: "Grandpa, I'll go with Liu Dong to find Ning Yuan first. You can chat slowly with He Bo Bo."
"Hehe, you little girl, not even married yet and so impatient. Be careful or people won't bother with you." Ouyang Zhendeh chuckled and waved his hand casually: "Go ahead, Grandpa will be there soon."
Ouyang Shasha's face turned slightly red as she was teased by Ouyang Zhen De, and without a word, she walked away with Liu Dong.
"Are you safe?"
When Ou Yang Sha Sha spoke, He Zhen Yu subconsciously was stunned. This Ou Yang Sha Sha actually knew Ning Yuan, it's really hateful, he and Ning Yuan were sworn enemies.
He Zhenyu gritted his teeth and watched as Ouyang Shasha and Liu Dong walked towards the sect, intending to call out to He Yuntang to follow them. Just then, he heard He Yuntang ask Ouyang Zhendong, "Senior Ouyang, what do you mean by 'Shasha and Ning'?
"Sasha is considered Ningyuan's fiancée, a marriage arranged by Qingping and me back in the day." Ouyang Zhendeh chuckled: "Of course, it still depends on whether the two are compatible or not. In today's society, I also can't force them into an arranged marriage, we have to respect free love."
"Unmarried wife!" He Zhenyu's mouth twitched, almost bursting out a swear word. This Ouyang Shasha was actually Ningyuan's unmarried wife. This beautiful girl, who was also a Jianghu person, was absolutely a rare sight to behold.
"Heh heh, Elder Ouyang is right." He Yuntang and Gan Xiao laughed dryly, feeling somewhat unnatural. The feelings in their hearts were not any better than those of He Zhenyu.
He Zhenyu was disappointed by Ouyang Shasha, but He Yuntang was disappointed by Ouyang Zhende himself, this great master.
Ouyang Zhen's kung fu has reached the level of internal power, his body's energy and blood are very vigorous, although he is over 70 years old, but high-level internal power and external power are different, can't be explained by fear of being outnumbered.
External martial arts training reaches its peak, entering the dark power, is a major watershed, and the spiritual consciousness transforms into the yuan shen boundary, also a watershed. Internal power is an external family transition from acquired to innate, entering internal power, only then can it be considered as entering the inner family gate, entering transformation power is considered as taking steps towards the innate.
In the past, 40-50 years old was considered a person's peak period. After 50, the body's functions decline and one's skills also start to gradually decrease. By 60-70 years old, one's skills are absolutely at 70-80% of their original level. If they were originally an expert in internal power, by 70 years old, they might only be able to exert 70% of the external family's peak strength or even less.
However, when entering the inner power, the inner energy is born, and one's own body has already been between the innate and acquired realms. Although the Qi and blood will also decline with the aging of the body, they will absolutely not be as extreme as the peak of the external family's dark power. One's skills can still be displayed at 90% even if they cannot be fully demonstrated.
Ouyang Zhen De was an internal energy expert, and in terms of actual strength, he was equivalent to a high-level spiritual awareness cultivator. Although his solo cultivation of martial skills couldn't compare to the secret methods and dual cultivation of secret methods and martial skills, an internal energy expert like him was absolutely not someone to be underestimated.
Li Yan had just joined the Jiu Xuan Men. Adding a master of spiritual awareness to the Jiu Xuan Men, not long after that, Ouyang Zhende said his granddaughter was engaged to Ning Yuan, this...this news is absolutely like adding insult to injury.
Ouyang Zhende became Ningyuan's future father-in-law, and without a doubt, he would stand firmly on Ningyuan's side. In this way, the Jiuxianmen had four great masters comparable to Lingzhi Hua Xing. This was definitely a force that could not be ignored.
Ouyang Zhende's words directly struck He Yuntang and his son, making the two men's mood even more depressed.
"Mr. Ouyang, please." He Yuntang suppressed the sense of loss in his heart and made a gesture, politely saying to Ouyang Zhenhua.
He just saw his own son having ideas about Ouyang Sha. He was originally going to speak up and propose to Ouyang Zhende, if he could win over Ouyang Zhende through this, it would be a great thing for their clan, but unfortunately Ningyuan had already taken the lead.
He Yuntang took Ouyang Zhende to the front door, and Ouyang Sha and Liu Dong had already asked all the way, arriving at the small courtyard where Ning Yu and others lived.
At this time, almost everyone in the small courtyard had left. Only a few people, including Ke Mu Hua, Fang Donglai and Shaolin abbot Yixin Dashi, were still there.
Ningyuan and He Zhengxun, Li Yan and a few others were chatting with Ke Mohua and a few others when Liu Dong and Ouyang Shasha walked in. Seeing the two of them arrive, Ningyuan was slightly startled, stood up and smiled to ask: "How did you guys come?"
"If you can come, why can't we?" asked Ouyang ShaSha with a smile.
"Heh heh, naturally." Ning Yuan smiled faintly and instructed Gu Feng Lin to go brew tea for the two of them.
Among the crowd, only He Zhengxun recognized Ouyang Shasha. Seeing this, he smiled and asked Yao Xinning and Li Yan: "Second Master Brother, Third Master Brother, can you guess who this is?"
Li Yan and Yao Xin saw Ouyang Sha and Liu Dong, who were young, and originally didn't think much of it, thinking they were just some younger relatives that Ning Yuan had befriended. But after He Zhengxun asked, he realized it wasn't simple, and curiously asked: "Who is this?"
"Haha, this is our young master's fiancée, Old Master Ouyang's granddaughter. The master himself arranged the engagement back then. Now that we old guys have met Old Master Ouyang, we'll have to lower our heads a notch." He Zhengyun said with a smile.
After He Zhengxun's introduction, Yao Xinyan and others were shocked. They didn't expect that this little girl was actually Ningyuan's fiancée. That's amazing! The future mistress of the Jiuxianmen sect all stood up and greeted Ouyang Shasha.
Although it was only a temporary engagement and not an actual wedding, everyone still took it seriously and brought gifts to give.
The last time was at the train station, He Zhengxun didn't make it clear, this time was in Di Zong, on the eve of the appraisal meeting, Ou Yang Zhende must have come too, he directly made it clear, Ou Yang Sasha suddenly became a big red face, Ningyuan also felt a bit uncomfortable, secretly scolding He Zhengxun for being unkind.
Looking at the gifts brought out by He Zhengxun and Yao Xinyan, Ouyang Shasha repeatedly pushed them away, politely saying: "Grandfather He, I really don't dare to accept it. The matter between me and Ningyuan is just decided by Grandfather, I haven't agreed yet."
"Even if you didn't promise, just take it as a gift from us to our junior." Yao Xinyan smiled and said: "Besides, my younger brother is extremely talented, absolutely one in ten thousand. This matter is 80% settled. Moreover, you've already accepted the gift from my younger brother, but still refuse to admit it. Are you saying that you only accept his gifts, not ours?"
As he spoke, Yao Xinyan smiled and glanced at the jade pendant hanging from Ouyang Shasha's neck. The pendant was quite eye-catching, and this made He Zhenghui and Li Yan burst out laughing. This jade pendant was no ordinary object - it was one of Qingping Daoist's personal artifacts from back in the day, and although it wasn't particularly impressive, it was absolutely one-of-a-kind and impossible for anyone else to replicate.
