This is a role of the legendary swordsman. In the novel, Deno is always the second disciple of Huashan School, and the eldest disciple is actually the third disciple of Songshan School. On the surface, Old Deno is loyal to Huashan School. In fact, he knew Yue Buqun's treachery, and he was only loyal to Yue Buqun on the surface. In fact, he is loyal to the Songshan Sect. But later, because old Deno lost his backer in Zuo Lengchan, he began to teach himself fencing, but he lost his martial arts. He was eventually imprisoned on Huashan Mountain by a Japanese nun and could only stay with monkeys day and night.

Old Deno is actually a very loyal person. At first, the description in the novel was just a conscientious and obedient apprentice. But in the later Linjiazhuang, the true identity of the old Deno was exposed. He was hated by Ling Huchong and surrounded by Huashan Sect. But at this time, the old Deno ran to Songshan, and this time, the old Deno was replaced by a body body double. Everyone thought old Deno was dead. In the later plot, when the two men clashed, Lao Denuo appeared again, and showed that Yue Buqun was a complete hypocrite, while Yue Lingshan was killed. Ling Huchong was saddened by the death of his younger brother, Yue Lingshan, and agreed to Yue Lingshan's last request, but the old Deno was defeated by Ren Yingying and kept in Huashan, where he could only keep company with two monkeys.
In 2000, Lao Denuo lived all his life for the benefit of Songshan School, and was finally abandoned. It ended badly, facing two monkeys all day.
Does old Deno show his swordsmanship to ward off evil spirits?
Many people don't know, "Is old Deno practicing fencing to ward off evil spirits?" Old Deno actually exists, but it is not the real new the legendary swordsman. Then why is his swordsmanship to ward off evil spirits not true? Of course there are many reasons.
New "the legendary swordsman" Old Deno Stills
According to the plot arrangement in the novel, Lao Denuo is the third disciple of Zuo Lengchan, and Zuo Lengchan sent him to be a spy of Huashan School to monitor Yue Buqun and Huashan School's every move. Lao Denuo is a very clever and cunning man. He stole Xia Zi's secret, but instead of giving it to Zuo Lengchan, he took it away. This shows that many times he is actually thinking for himself and doesn't always obey Zuo Lengchan's orders.
It was not until this secret book fell out of his arms in a fight and was discovered by Ling Huchong that Ling Huchong knew that Lao Denuo was the real murderer. But later, it is said that Yue Buqun knew Lao Denuo's identity long ago. Instead of exposing it, he played along and used Lao Denuo's spy status to control Zuo Lengchan, hoping to attack Zuo Lengchan.
This is why old Deno's swordsmanship to ward off evil spirits is fake, because Yue Buqun did it on purpose. As for why Yue Buqun did this, it is still unknown. There may be many aspects. Maybe he thought that Lao Denuo stole the secret script and gave it to Zuo Lengchan, so Zuo Lengchan would be possessed if he practiced the fake secret script. What will happen next? He may even die, so he will lose an opponent. But old Deno secretly linked the cheats in his pocket, which caused him to lose his martial arts. Finally, he was locked up by Ren Yingying and the monkey, and he will never get rid of it.
How was the legendary swordsman discovered?
As a disciple of Songshan Sect, Old Deno is deeply trusted by Zuo Lengchan, as can be seen from Zuo Lengchan's sending him to Huashan Sect for undercover. So after he joined the Huashan school, no one doubted his identity? Of course not, so how was old Deno discovered?

First, Yue Buqun knew the identity of Old Deno and the purpose of joining Huashan School from the beginning, but he just played along and deliberately pretended not to know and left it to him. In the second case, other disciples of Huashan Lun Jian, like Ling Huchong, were later discovered. Therefore, there is no exact event or time about how Lao Denuo was discovered.
Old Deno was regarded as a pivotal figure in the year of "Sword to ward off evil spirits". His appearance and actions directly led to the fate and future direction of several protagonists. For example, if he hadn't killed Lu Dayou, Ling Huchong wouldn't have been framed, so he wouldn't have been expelled from his estate, and then maybe he wouldn't have anything to do with Ren Yingying. If it weren't for him, Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi wouldn't have died.
Old Deno played a very important role in the struggle between Huashan School and Songshan School. Although Songshan sent undercover, he stole the legendary swordsman and didn't give it to Zuo Lengchan immediately. This shows that he actually planned it for himself many times, and then became possessed by practicing the fake Xia Zi secret book stolen from Yue Buqun.
