Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After a night of chaos, the Iron River Manor, which used to be famous in Wu Province, became the target of public criticism. Countless disciples of the twelve sects came to inquire about the situation. By dawn, the foot of Martial Understanding Mountain was already full of people. The disciples of the Iron River Manor had fled after the manor lord had been defeated.

In a small town a few kilometers away from Martial Understanding Mountain, ‘Three Absolutes Elderly Immortal’ Guanghan Lin had mostly recovered after a night of recuperation. He was standing by the window of the inn with his hands behind his back and looking at the gloomy Wu Mountains with a frown.

His disciple Yang Guan came up the stairs with a bowl of medicine. He walked to his back and advised, “Master, you’re already so old. You almost died on the mountain last night. In my opinion, we should go back and wait for the news. Sir Ye only needs to say a word, and we can distance ourselves from the Prince of Wu’s rebellion. What can you do by standing here…”

Guanghan Lin took the medicine bowl and blew at it. He snorted softly. “If 1 count on your connections in the capital, I’ll die outside sooner or later. When 1 was at the Zhou residence, 1 helped Ye Silang uphold justice. Yesterday, when calamity struck me, Ye Silang didn’t hesitate to fall out with Guan Yujia to help. He didn’t say thanks, but he remembered it in his heart and thanked me with his actions. This is the kind of Jianghu friendship that can’t be bought with money.”

Yang Guan shrugged slightly. “Perhaps Young Hero Ye has a hot temper and just wanted to beat Guan Yujia up. He would interfere no matter who Guan Yujia wanted to hit. Master, you feel that he’s returning a favor, but in fact, he doesn’t pay attention to you at all…”

Guanghan Lin frowned, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was really possible. “It’s other people’s business if they remember favors or not. I have to repay the kindness I’ve received. I have to repay this life-saving favor with my life. Now that Ye Silang and Guan Yujia have fought into the mountains and not a single one of them has come out, if 1 run away dejectedly like the other sect masters without even saying anything to him, how can 1 stand tall in Jianghu in the future?”

Yang Guan felt that this was a place of trouble and wanted to persuade him, but Guanghan Lin suddenly raised his hand.

Clack, clack..

The sound of horses galloping came from outside the town.

Yang Guan looked over and saw two men in black cloaks and bamboo hats riding fierce horses entering the town.

Because the person in the lead was rather burly, and his clothes and horse didn’t look like ordinary Jianghu people’s, he attracted the attention of many martial artists in town.

Yang Guan frowned and sized them up before asking, “Master, who are those two? They don’t look like people to be trifled with.”

Guanghan Lin had been in Jianghu for 70 years and had a very sharp eye. After looking at them for a bit, he said in a low voice, “They should be from Jun Mountain Terrace. There’s a high chance that they’re part of the leadership.” “Master, both of them have their faces covered. How can you tell?”

“The weapon is hanging on the weapon hooks on the left side, and the luggage is on the right. This means that the weapon is very heavy, and the size under the black cloth is similar to the Jun Mountain Saber. After practicing the Dragon Slaying Decree for a long time, people’s shoulders and back are broad, and their arms are thick. Ordinary people can’t practice to the level of the person in the lead with hard work. It all depends on talent. There aren’t many people with such a physique in Jun Mountain Terrace…”

Yang Guan nodded thoughtfully and asked, “Wu Province has been so chaotic recently. Why did Jun Mountain Terrace come to the Iron River Manor?”

Guanghan Lin, holding the medicine bowl, fell silent for a moment. “I’m not sure. They’re probably here to look for Guan Yujia. Last time in Ze Province, Jun Mountain Terrace and the Zhou family worked together to pressure the Red Flower Pavilion. Zhou Huaili is dead, but Xuanyuan Hongzhi is still alive. I’m afraid they’re very interested in Young Hero Ye…”

Yang Guan was shocked when he heard this. He leaned closer and whispered, “Master, are you going to kill with a borrowed knife?”

Guanghan Lin looked displeased. He raised his hand and slapped Yang Guan’s head. “I’m repaying a favor. Jun Mountain Terrace and the Red Flower Pavilion have already formed enmity at the Zhou residence. Now, as long as they bump into each other in Wu Province, one of them will definitely die. Young Hero Ye saved my life. If I ignore his enemies when 1 discover them, won’t I become an ungrateful person?”

Yang Guan nodded thoughtfully and asked, “The Red Flower Pavilion is elusive. How can we send the news to Young Hero Ye?”

Guanghan Lin looked at the two people from the Jun Mountain Terrace in the distance and saw that after they asked someone a few questions, they didn’t stop and galloped away on their horses. He whispered, “Jun Mountain Terrace shouldn’t be here for Young Hero Ye. This place is surrounded by mountains, and there’s only one official road in and out of the mountains. Young Hero Ye and his group rode here on horses. If they want to go out, they will definitely ride past here. Jun Mountain Terrace can just guard the official road that leaves Martial Understanding Mountain. If they see any Jianghu people with their faces covered and a spear, they can stop them…”

“Oh…”
