The Dragon Slaying Sabre Yin Bukui mentioned was, of course, not those kinds of items that could be obtained easily. Instead, it was a divine weapon. It was a weapon that was one level higher than the Zhuge Celestial Bow!

What was most important was, the Dragon Slaying Sabre wasn’t just a divine weapon. It was a weapon filled with mystery and secrets.

There was a saying in the pugilistic world:

Honored by the Wulin (pugilistic world), the precious sabre slays the dragon;

It commands the world, who dares to disobey?

If the Heaven Reliant does not appear, who can challenge it?

The sabre here referred to the Dragon Slaying Sabre. As for Heaven Reliant, it was referring to the Heavenly Sword which belonged to the Emei Sect, although it wasn’t in their hands now.

Not long ago, it was the birthday of the leader of the Wudang Sect, Zhang Sanfeng. The Dragon Gate Escort fell in the hands of Yu Daiyan due to a series of coincidences when he was on his way back to visit his master. But, because of this, he got ambushed by some unknown assailants and got poisoned by the deadly poison on the Mosquito Feeler Needle and the Seven Star Thorn. When he woke up from his unconscious state, he realized that the Dragon Gate Escort was gone. Not only that, but he got sent to the Dragon Gate Escort with a numb body. Du Dajin was asked to send him back to the Wudang Sect.

As for what happened after that, it was similar to the words that Du Dajin wrote in his letter for help. However, when Yin Bukui explained to him, he was speaking from the point of view of the Wudang Sect.

By the time Yin Bukui finished explaining everything, the two of them had reached the West Gate of Hangzhou City. In the olden days, to prevent bandits from disturbing the civilians, the gates of a city would be closed at night. During troubled times or during wars, there was a curfew too. Civilians were not allowed to step out of their houses at all. However, in the game, there weren’t so many rules. Everything was set so that it was more convenient for the players.

Ye Weiming listened to the other party and compared the information Yin Bukui mentioned to the information he knew. He only raised his right hand and opened it after Yin Bukui finished speaking. There were two concealed weapons on his palm. “Are these the Mosquito Feeler Needle and the Seven Star Thorn you mentioned?”

Yin Bukui immediately took the concealed weapons over to take a look.

Mosquito Feeler Needle: A concealed weapon stained with lethal poison. However. since it had already been used once, only one-fifth of the lethal poison was left.

Seven Star Thorn: A concealed weapon stained with lethal poison. However. since it had already been used once, only one-fifth of the lethal poison was left.

There were no symbols on the concealed weapons to show which clan they were from. However, it was undeniably an important piece of evidence for their mission. Yin Bukui hurriedly asked, “Brother Ye, where did you find these two concealed weapons?”

Ye Weiming didn’t hide what he knew and replied directly, “They were found on the bodies of Du Dajin and the escorts from the Dragon Gate Escort.”

“That means that…” Yin Bukui’s eyes lit up. “The person who ambushed and injured Yu Dai… Third Uncle-Master and the person who annihilated the Dragon Gate Escort is the same person?”

This wasn’t hard to guess. However, it was different when you have evidence to prove your guess.

Ye Weiming remembered that fellow he met at the Dragon Gate Escort yesterday night who used claw skills to attack him. He added, “To be more precise, it should be the same bunch of people. Firstly, Yu Third Swordsman and the masters from the Dragon Gate Escort were all injured by the same concealed weapons. Next, the person who requested the escort mission said that if something happened, he would annihilate the entire Dragon Gate Escort. Even if it was a different bunch of people, they must be connected.”

Yin Bukui nodded continuously when he heard this. “But, how are we supposed to ascertain the other party’s identity, and where do we find those people?”

Ye Weiming shook his head and sighed. “The only piece of evidence left is the Dragon Slaying Sabre. Where are you bringing me?”

“To see Zhang Cuishan. Oh wait, I should call him Fifth Uncle-Master.” He winked at Ye Weiming as he spoke. He was telling Ye Weiming that after they met Zhang Cuishan, he wouldn’t be able to call him by his full name. He needed to be well-mannered.

The Fengbo Pavilion was a pavilion inside the central judicial office, the Dali Temple, during the Southern Song dynasty. This place was well-known because the national hero, Yue Fei, died from injustice here. The background of ‘Eternal Justice’ was set in a non-existent dynasty similar to the Northern Song. Only Bian Liang City had a central judicial office. As for Fengbo Pavilion, it became a normal pavilion situated outside. Any players were able to take a rest here. It was a public facility.

Even from a long distance away, Ye Weiming could see six Wudang players dressed like priests sitting on the grass in the pavilion and chatting with one another. Outside the pavilion, an elegant and refined-looking young man was standing there with his hands behind his back. He was looking at the scenery of the West Lake far away. He was a stark contrast to the players in the pavilion who looked as though they were from the pugilistic world.

If it wasn’t for the judge pen and Tiger Head hook behind his back, Ye Weiming would have thought that he was a weak and feeble scholar. Who would believe that this weak-looking scholar was the same person who faced seven masters from Shaolin Temple alone on equal footing?

“Fifth Uncle-Master!” Yin Bukui immediately cupped his hands together and greeted Zhang Cuishan respectfully when he brought Ye Weiming over. It really felt like the martial arts scene in ancient dramas.

Zhang Cuishan retracted his gaze and turned around. He nodded at Yin Bukui first before greeting Ye Weiming with cupped fists. “I’m Zhang Cuishan from Wudang. Thank you for speaking in defense of me yesterday. I left in a hurry yesterday because I heard some noises at the back of the courtyard. I was afraid that the culprit would run away so I went to chase after him without explaining. However, the other party still managed to escape.”

As someone of such a high status, he was still willing to take the initiative to explain this to Ye Weiming. This showed that he viewed this Divine Constable Bureau player as his equal. He didn’t have the arrogance of a senior in the pugilistic world and didn’t have the resistance most swordsmen had against imperial court officials.

Ye Weiming politely cupped his fists and greeted him back. He went directly into the main topic, “I’ve discussed the summary of the case with Brother Yin on the way here. There’s no need to talk about the details. These are the concealed weapons I found on the bodies of Du Dajin and the escorts from Dragon Gate Escort. Swordsman Zhang Five, please take a look at them.” As he spoke, he opened his mouth and another Seven Star Thorn and a Mosquito Feeler Needle appeared on his palm.

Yin Bukui: ???

No wonder this fellow gave me the important pieces of evidence so straightforwardly. He had more than one set of concealed weapons.

Wait!

Didn’t he say that the escorts from the escort agency were all killed by concealed weapons? Did that mean that he had a huge number of these concealed weapons?

Zhang Cuishan frowned when he saw the two concealed weapons. He quickly took them over and inspected them carefully. Then he said in a low voice, “This is the Mosquito Feeler Needle and the Seven Star Thorn! My third brother was injured using these concealed weapons. It looks like the people who injured my third brother were the same people who requested for the escort mission and then annihilated the entire Dragon Gate Escort!

Ye Weiming nodded slightly. Zhang Cuishan’s conclusion was the same as his.

He immediately suggested, “Now, the people from the Shaolin Temple are searching for the truth of Du Dajin’s murder. Since we are able to prove that the same bunch of people harmed Swordsman Yu Three and annihilated the Dragon Gate Escort, Swordsman Zhang Five, will you consider working with the Shaolin Temple to investigate the case? I know one of the Shaolin disciples so I can help to contact them.”

Strained Noodles Steamed Bun was a good person. Since they found a way they could cooperate, Ye Weiming felt that it was better to bring them along. That way, he wouldn’t feel sorry for his friend and he could also combine the forces from Shaolin and Wudang. It would help with the completion of the mission.

Zhang Cuishan hesitated for a moment before nodding. “I’ll have to trouble you then, Brother Weiming.

Ye Weiming smiled lightly and sent a pigeon mail to Strained Noodles Steamed Bun. The content was as follow:

The same bunch of people ambushed Yu Daiyan and annihilated the Dragon Gate Escort. I have evidence to prove this point. Only one sentence is needed for you. Are you interested in working together?

——Ye Weiming

The pigeon flew away but it didn’t disappear from his gaze. Instead, it landed directly on a player wearing a bamboo hat who was killing some West Lake pirates.

After the player received the mail, he quickly took care of the pirate in front of him and immediately took off his bamboo hat. Then, he changed into his Shaolin attire.

Pigeon mail reply: Thank you, Brother Weiming, for still remembering me. However, there’s a change in our mission so… I’m sorry, brother!

Within a second, more than ten players who were killing pirates along the shore had changed into Shaolin attire. They rushed simultaneously towards Ye Weiming’s direction.

Change in their mission

Sorry?

Ye Weiming was stunned for a moment. Then, he instantly shouted loudly,” This is bad! It’s an ambush!”
