Heaven-relying Sword And Dragon-slaying Sabre

Upon hearing Yuan Yin so adamantly pointing him as the killer, Zhang CuiShan became angrier and angrier. Not only did he have to argue with Yuan Yin, but he also must fight off Yuan Ye at the same time. In the heat of the battle, Zhang CuiShan said with a smirk, "You think you can actually capture me?"

Only to see Yuan Ye push his staff onto the ground, trying to borrow its force to get him up. Zhang CuiShan jumped at the same time. His lightness kung fu is far superior to Yuan Ye's, attacked downward as he jumped. Yuan Ye tried to block his attack with the staff, but Zhang CuiShan's hook suddenly changed directions in midair, followed by a tearing sound, as his hook sliced through Yuan Ye's shoulder. Yuan let out a scream, fell to the ground. He only lived because Zhang CuiShan showed mercy, and not aim for Yuan Ye's throat.

Yuan Yin quickly held up his brother and asked, "Are you alright?" Yuan Ye said, "I'm fine! You still talking and not attacking? Stop with the indecisiveness!" Yuan Yin sighed, then raised his staff to attack. Yuan Ye did not bother to wrap up his wound, instead immediately went back to fighting Zhang CuiShan. The dancing staffs carried the wind, both converged to attack as one. Zhang CuiShan knew the wrist power of the two monks, in addition to the heaviness of their weapons. Should they be able to jump onto the wall, he would have great difficulty winning. So Zhang CuiShan played defensive, guarding his higher vantage point. Neither monks could jump up to the wall as a result. The 'Hui' generation monks have much lower kung fu, so despite seeing their martial uncles at a disadvantage, they had no way of helping.

Zhang CuiShan thought, "I really must go find the real killer quickly, no reason to get caught up in this misunderstanding." He retracted his hook and brush into defensive positions, holding off attack. Just as he's about to spring away, Zhang CuiShan heard a yell from behind, the voice thunderous, followed by a powerful force pushing towards him. Only to see a big-bodied monk jump up unto the roof, both his hands now reaching for Zhang CuiShan's weapons. Although Zhang CuiShan could not see his face in the darkness, he realized that this monk is using Shaolin's famous and powerful Tiger Claws. Yuan Ye yelled, "Thank goodness you're here, brother Yuan Xin. Don't let this murderer get away."

Zhang CuiShan had seldom met any formidable enemy in his lifetime, plus his martial arts recently increased a great deal with this new kung fu. When he saw this new monk attacking, he felt a strong hatred, and began to have the urge to duel with them. He put away his hook and brush, yelled, "Humph, do you think the three of you could beat me?" Just as Yuan Xin's left hand is nearly next to him, Zhang CuiShan retracted his right palm, swooped around and ripped apart a piece of Yuan Xin's robe. As Yuan Xin's claws touched his shoulder, Zhang CuiShan's left foot flew out, hitting Yuan Xin squarely on the kneecap.

Yuan Xin's knees are unusually sturdy, so he did not fell down even after suffering such an injury. With a loud roar, his right claw came at Zhang CuiShan. At the same time, Yuan Yin and Yuan Ye's staffs also attacked from behind. Yuan Yin's voice might be croaked, seemingly ill, but his kung fu is the best of the three. A staff weighing at least thirty to forty pounds seemed light as a sword in his hands, very quick and flexible.

After meeting his match for the first time in life, Zhang CuiShan thought, "Wu Dang and Shaolin had been considered the two most powerful sects in the world recently, yet we never really had a chance to compete against each other. Today's a good opportunity to test against the powerful Shaolin martial arts." With that thought, he shot out his two palms, freely shifting among the two staffs and a pair of claws, cutting down, capturing, pointing and attacking. Even while fighting one on three, Zhang CuiShan gradually gained the upper hand.

Shaolin and Wu Dang sects both have their strengths and weaknesses. Zhang SanFeng is a seldom-seen genius when it comes to martial arts, but Wu Dang nonetheless lacked the thousands of years of experience Shaolin had. The difference is that, Zhang CuiShan is one of the best Wu Dang fighters, while the three monks are only second tier fighters in Shaolin. So as the fight went on, Zhang CuiShan became more and more energetic, his movements became swifter and faster. Suddenly, his right hand wrote out the long hook in the character 'Dragon', grabbing Yuan Ye's staff, and redirected it unto Yuan Yin's staff. With a loud collision sound, so loud everyone's ears vibrated. Both monks had incredible strength. Their strength, adding Zhang CuiShan's, caused such a powerful collision that blood came out of the two monks' mouths. As Yuan Xin came over to help, Zhang CuiShan quickly stepped to the side, held out his foot in front of Yuan Xin, and then gave him a shove on the back. With the shove and his own natural forward movement, Yuan Xin immediately tripped to the ground.

Zhang CuiShan said coldly, "Want to take me to Shaolin? You'll have to practice a few more years first." Yuan Xin got up and yelled, "Murderer! Don't try to run away!" And with that the three monks began to come after Zhang CuiShan again. Zhang CuiShan thought, "They really are pesky, but I can't exactly kill them." So he took a deep breath and began to use his lightness kung fu to escape.

Yuan Xin and Yuan Ye both tried to chase him, but could not catch up, due to their inferior lightness kung fu. They can only yell, "Capture the murderer! Don't let him go!" while chasing along the banks. Zhang CuiShan laughed inside, thinking how can you people catch up to me? Suddenly he heard Yuan Xin and Yuan Ye both yell out "Ahhh!" while Yuan Yin let out a light groan, but also seemingly injured.

Zhang CuiShan turned his head around, only to see all three monks with their hands over their right eyes, as if hit by hidden weapons. Then Yuan Yin yelled, "Zhang CuiShan. If you got the guts, come back and blind my left eye too!"

Zhang CuiShan thought, "Were they blinded by someone? Who's helping me?" He then realized something, yelled, "Seventh brother, seventh brother. Where are you?" Among the seven Wu Dang heroes, Muo ShengGu's the best at hidden weapons. That's why Zhang CuiShan figured his seventh brother must be here.

But after several yells, no response came. Zhang CuiShan searched around several trees by the banks, but could not find even half a shadow.

Yuan Ye lost control after getting blinded, and wanted to keep chase Zhang CuiShan. But Yuan Yin stopped him, knowing that doing so would be pointless. He said, "Brother Yuan Ye, we don't have to be in such a hurry to seek revenge. Even if we give up, do you think our elder reverends would let him go? Let's go seek the advice of the abbot. He'll help us."

Zhang CuiShan felt a bit more comfortable, after seeing the Shaolin monks leave. But he still wondered, "Just who was the person that helped me?" He didn't want to stay by the lake much longer, and decided to hurry back to the inn. After quickly running for about thirty meters, he saw a bush rustling by the lake.

Since there's no wind right now, so someone must be hiding behind it. Zhang CuiShan walked closer, about to ask who's there, when suddenly a person shot out of the bush, attacked him with a saber, yelling, "Today, either you die or I die!"

Zhang CuiShan kicked his foot out, and quickly knocked the saber out of that person's hand, into the lake. Looking closely, he saw that this person is yet another monk, except his kung fu is quite mediocre. Zhang CuiShan yelled, "What are you doing here?" While speaking, he saw three other people lying behind the bush. Zhang CuiShan ignored the monk, and went over to examine the three people. He found that these three people are the three leaders of the Dragon Gate Escort Agency, Du, Shi, and Zhu.
