Yang Caizhi heard from the hall’s upper echelon that Magistrate Wang hadn’t joined the crowd of officials and martial disciples aboard the warships. He must be safely tucked away somewhere behind, claiming a grand merit without risking his life in the bloody battle at the Vastest Lake. As the county magistrate’s personal guard, Wang Fugui also didn’t need to put himself in danger but got an easy assignment: to protect Magistrate Wang. It was tailor-made for him, a perfect opportunity with…-

It was the dead of night, just past midnight. The sky was as black as pitch, with scarce stars twinkling in the darkness. It was a perfect time for an ambush; Vastest Lake’s pirates were lax and unsuspecting. Three thousand elite troops and over ten thousand martial disciples from various Wu Region groups were silently mobilized. They boarded boats at Xikou Town’s dock, setting off to purge the lake of pirates. Most common folk these days suffered from night blindness due to…-

Daoist Han Shan called out, “Honorable Mr. Zhao!” The leaders were visibly shaken, their faces etched with astonishment as they eagerly gazed towards the courtyard entrance. A man clad in a resplendent fourth-grade vermilion official’s robe, his waist adorned with a silver badge of office, entered the courtyard accompanied by more than ten middle-aged and young military officers dressed in armor, each carrying a precious blade. They were flanked by over forty elite soldiers, armed with spears…-

Daoist Han Shan took a cup of tea from one of his four disciples and took a sip, then calmly asked, “What are your thoughts on Magistrate Wang’s proposal, fellow martial artists?” In the courtyard, the leaders of the major and minor factions finally stirred, murmuring amongst themselves. “We have four major factions and dozens of smaller ones united, with tens of thousands of disciples. We’re an impressive force at first glance. If it were land warfare, our combined might would…-

“Caravan Guards Leader, Grandmaster Silver Armored Spear Li Shuo, has arrived!” shouted the doorman. Soon after, another loud announcement echoed from the door. Many small group leaders turned to look. A towering figure, skin like bronze, clad in silver chain mail, and riding a magnificent steed named Pursuit, entered the courtyard. He carried a Stone-splitting Bow and several pouches of piercing arrows on his saddle. Wielding a nine-foot-long silver spear, he exuded an aura of cold…-

Su Chen galloped towards the Vastest Lake, his face as cold as ice, his thoughts as heavy and oppressive as lead. He had once sneaked into Daoist Qinghe’s room and seen a talisman on the desk. When he went back later, it was gone. This meant that Daoist Han Shan must have crafted talismans at some point. Having been a Grandmaster for two to three decades, he had ample time to collect spiritual materials. If Daoist Han Shan harbored ill will towards him, then the outcome was pretty much…-

Ah Chou, having made up his mind, could not be dissuaded. Su Chen no longer tried to persuade him to return. Instead, he forcefully patted Ah Chou’s shoulder and pulled out a packet of medicinal powder from his robe, pressing it into Ah Chou’s hand. “Ah Chou, this is Concentration Powder. It’s normally used to strengthen True Qi, taken in ten doses over three months to bolster first-rate cultivation. I found the formula at Medicine King Estate to help you advance faster. But now, it…-

Su Chen, spurring his horse, had scoured the entire Vaulting Mountains in search of Ah Chou. However, the mountains sprawled over hundreds of miles, with countless winding paths, and despite hours of searching, there was no sign of Ah Chou or Han Shu, nor any other Heaven Falcon Group disciples. As twilight approached and the sun began to set, Su Chen reluctantly abandoned his search. The Wu Region’s groups had been hunting in the Vaulting Mountains but were now returning to Xikou Town by…-

Su Chen and Ah Nu, astride their horses, rode out of the small forest for three miles before leaving behind the foothills of the Vaulting Mountains. They arrived at the edge of the Vastest Lake, where they no longer had to worry about being suspected. Only then did the two fine steeds gradually slow down. Su Chen felt somewhat out of sorts. His trip to the Vaulting Mountains was meant to be a leisurely outing to clear his mind, but instead, he stumbled upon Daoist Qinghe and Ding Shisan plotting…-
