The Wudang disciples were all shocked when they heard Ye Weiming’s shouts. They quickly grabbed their weapons and stood up from the ground. However, when they noticed that the Shaolin disciples surrounding them were the same ones as before, they still felt slightly surprised.

The same situation occurred at the Dragon Gate Escort yesterday. At that time, there were more players from Shaolin but they weren’t able to gain an advantage over Wudang. Why were they still doing the same thing?

On the other hand, Zhang Cuishan frowned when he saw the Shaolin disciples closing in on them. “Proper business is more important. We shouldn’t complicate matters. Let’s leave first.”

“Swordsman Zhang Five, don’t you think that it’s a little too late to leave now?” A loud bang was heard and the seven Shaolin NPCs who fought with Zhang Cuishan yesterday appeared. They closed in from the other side and surrounded the Wudang players in the middle.

Zhang Cuishan saw that the masters from the other side were all present so he took a step forward and came in front of the Shaolin monks. He said in a low voice, “Monk Yuan Yin, we have already found some pieces of evidence. Is the Shaolin Temple really going to make things difficult for us again? Are you really going to make the enemy happy and hurt your friends?”

Yuan Yin placed his palms together and replied, “Since Swordsman Zhang Five has found evidence, that is the best. May I invite Swordsman Zhang Five to come to the Shaolin with me so you can explain the situation to our abbot?”

Shaolin’s motive never changed from the start! They still wanted to bring Zhang Cuishan back to Shaolin!

Ye Weiming couldn’t help but frown. Why did they do this?

Was it because they wanted to find the real culprit of the Dragon Gate Escort massacre or did they want to use this conflict to step on Wudang? Or maybe they did this because of…

The Dragon Slaying Sabre!

As Ye Weiming was making guesses, Zhang Cuishan had already taken out his judge pen and silver hook from behind him. “What if I don’t want to?”

“Amitabha!”

Suddenly, a sound rang in the air. It revolved around everyone’s ear. It took a long time before it subsided.

Along with the chant, an old man with a white beard wearing a kasaya walked towards them from afar. His steps seemed slow but he covered a hundred meters within just a few breaths. His speed was faster than the speed of a hundred-meter dash world champion!

Zhang Cuishan frowned when he saw the monk. Finally, he wasn’t able to maintain his composure anymore. “Great Monk Kong Xing!”

Ye Weiming stood at the side and watched silently. He wondered to himself, ‘It looks like this Great Monk Kong Xing is their biggest support today. But, who on earth is he?’

Yin Bukui seemed to notice Ye Weiming’s confusion so he explained, “Kong Xing is one of the three ‘Kong’ great monks in Shaolin. His kung fu has reached a very high level. His Shaolin Dragon Claw is perfect. It has already exceeded the level of the deceased Great Monk Kong Jian.”

Ye Weiming was astounded when he heard this. “How did you know this?”

“Haha…” Yin Bukui smiled proudly. “My master likes to tell me about the pugilistic world. I like to listen to him too so I remembered most of it.”

Just as Ye Weiming was about to ask him who his master was, one of the Wudang players holding a blade said unhappily, “Why are you talking so much with this brat? I have serious doubts that he is the one who lured all these Shaolin monks over.”

“That’s impossible!” Yin Bukui was a careful person. “It’s obvious that the other party has been lying in ambush for a while. I just brought Brother Ye over. He has nothing to do with this.”

At this moment, Strained Noodles Steamed Bun took a step forward and smiled at Yin Bukui. “You’re still quite smart. If our missions didn’t contradict each other, I’m very willing to make friends with you.” Then he turned and said to the disciple who suspected Ye Weiming, “Since the situation is already like this, I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Actually, when the six of you walk together, you’re more conspicuous than you thought.”

After listening to Strained Noodles Steamed Bun, the expressions on the Wudang players were very exciting to watch.

At first, they were still suspecting that Ye Weiming had revealed their location. But, in fact, they were the ones who got followed.

This slap in the face.

Was fast and painful…

While the players were talking, the NPCs from the two clans were in a discussion too. However, the monks from the Shaolin Temple claimed that they must bring Zhang Cuishan back today. In the face of such an unreasonable request which would humiliate the Wudang Sect, Zhang Cuishan of course wouldn’t agree to it.

In the end, they started fighting after a few sentences.

At the same time, the players from the three sides received a notification from the system.

The notification that the Wudang players received was: The Great Monk from Shaolin, Kong Xing, is fighting with Zhang Cuishan. After a few rounds, Zhang Cuishan realized that he isn’t the monk’s match. However, he is unwilling to leave because he’s worried about his juniors from his clan. He’s now in a difficult position. Please break out of the encirclement so that Zhang Cuishan won’t have any worries!

The notification that the Shaolin players received was: Keep all the Wudang players here. Before Great Monk Kong Xing defeats Zhang Cuishan, don’t let the enemy escape. At least keep one disciple alive.

Yet, the notification Ye Weiming received was: The disciples from Shaolin and Wudang are having a conflict. Please choose to…

1. Help Shaolin.

2. Help Wudang.

3. Be a bystander.

“Brothers, attack!” The moment the notification appeared, Strained Noodles Steamed Bun had already given his order. He took the lead and started attacking the Wudang disciples. The Wudang were well-prepared too so they used their skills and tried to break out of the encirclement.

Ye Weiming immediately chose the second option without much hesitation. The Dragon Spring Sword came out of its sheath and blocked Strained Noodles Steamed Bun, who was the first in line.

“Brother Weiming, are you really planning to help Wudang all the way?”

“This is just my mission.”

“Okay!” After saying this, Brother Bun didn’t act polite anymore. He executed the Luohan Fist and started attacking Ye Weiming.

Ye Weiming knew that he had good items and his sword skills level was high so he stopped four Shaolin disciples at once, including Strained Noodles Steamed Bun. Ye Weiming’s ability had increased by a huge bit compared to yesterday. Even though he was facing four people, they were unable to take him down in a short time.

Now, he had the same idea as Zhang Cuishan. As long as he was able to cover for the other escaping Wudang disciples, he knew that he could run away anytime easily. His level 4 ‘Eight Step Chasing Toad’ meant that his movement had reached a frightening high point of 158. If he really wanted to leave, almost no one at the same level would be able to catch him.

Also, from what he saw, none of the Shaolin disciples were well-versed in movement techniques.

Ye Weiming was strong but the Wudang disciples weren’t weak either. However, there were more Shaolin disciples present so it wasn’t an easy task for them to break out of the encirclement.

In addition, the seven NPCs that fought with Zhang Cuishan yesterday were standing at the side and watching the fight. They might join in anytime.

Ye Weiming knew that the system would never give the players an impossible mission. But after thinking for a long while, he still couldn’t find a way to get out of this predicament.

Could it be that once a mission involved a confrontation between the players, there wouldn’t be any fairness?

As Ye Weiming was trying to think of a solution, Yin Bukui suddenly shouted loudly, “Brothers, persevere on! We will win if we persevere!”

Persevere?

What was happening?

At a time like this, shouldn’t he be asking his comrades to fight and clear a path of escape?
