The elites from the six great system-allocated had all been sent out, and they had two Inaction Realm players guarding them. He Biweng was soon forced to surrender and got captured as well. He was then brought over by Master Hui Xin once his acupressure points were sealed.

When they returned to Happy’s side, the female items all over the ground had been put away. Lu Zhangke cast a complicated gaze at the man who seemed young but understood everything. His face alternated between shades of red and grey, and not even He Biweng’s capture attracted his attention.

“Alright, we mustn’t dawdle around in this matter. The Yuan Dynasty soldiers still don’t know that Xuanming Elders are in our hands. We have to get the whereabouts of the antidote for Ten Fragrant Tendon Weakening Powder soon so we can enter Eternal Peace Temple to save our people!”

Right when Master Yuan Hui finished speaking, Happy he cast a glance at Lu Zhangke and said, “He Biweng should have the item we need, right?”

“Hmph, if you have the guts, then kill me! You can dream about getting information from us!” He Biweng spoke firmly, but he did not have the power to break free from Yuan Hui’s hands despite his struggles.

Against his expectations, however, a hint of faint nervousness appeared on the face of Lu Zhangke when Happy brought out a jade hairpin. “We’re in their hands now,” he stammered out,” so we have to submit. This time we lost. Junior brother, give them the antidote.”

He Biweng was stunned speechless and cast a surprised glance at Lu Zhangke. He seemed to be puzzled by how easily his senior brother had admitted defeat. He did not know that Happy’s words left Lu Zhangke so terrified that he could practically feel his soul flying out of his body.

If he were in the hands of the six great system-allocated sects, they would be hesitant and not dare to kill their hostages on a whim. Zhao Min would soon know that something had happened to Xuanming Elders, and at that time, the elites of the six great system-allocated sects would become targets of revenge.

But if Zhao Min learned that Lu Zhangke had slept with the young consort, who was also Zhao Min’s sister-in-law, Zhao Min and Ruyang Mansion would not let go of them. Since they could not guarantee their lives, it was only natural that Lu Zhangke could not be firm and resolute anymore.

After that, the six great system-allocated sects obtained the antidote for Ten Fragrant Tendon Weakening Powder from He Biweng’s hands.

“Young Swordsman Happy, what method did you use to make these two old men suddenly be so cooperative?” Song Yuanqiao asked Happy with a smile.

Happy smiled humbly back at him. “It’s just a few methods from among wanderers, but they’re mainly intimidated by Great Swordsman Song and Master Yuan Hui’s might as well as the prestige of the six sects, or else, I wouldn’t have been able to make them submit to me with my methods.”

His words made the elites of the six great system-allocated sects feel gratified.

“We shouldn’t dawdle. Since we have the antidote now, we’ll sneak into Eternal Peace Temple at night and save our sect teachers and elites,” Yuan Hui said.

Happy cast a glance at him. The monk did not exist in the original work. Such a powerful martial artist should have been prepared for him, so he nodded.

“It’s not difficult to sneak into Eternal Peace Temple. I’ve tried it a few times, and I’m already very familiar with it. Once night falls, we can get in with the antidote…”

“This won’t do. Zhao Min is a very cunning lass. My master nearly fell into her trap while we were at Wudang Sect. There is no way she will not increase the defenses when we have been sent to Eternal Peace Temple. Young Swordsman Happy, it’s too dangerous for you to sneak in alone. I should be the one who sneaks in at night,” Song Yuanqiao said seriously.

Yuan Hui nodded as well. “That’s right. This is an important matter. It’s not that I don’t believe you, Young Swordsman Happy, I am filled with admiration for your chivalrous and moral heart because of your willingness to work for the six great sects. But Great Swordsman Song’s Cloud Ascending Ladder is unparallelled. It is clear that he is more suited to the task. Young Swordsman Happy, you should come with us.”

“That’s right.”

When the elites from the six great system-allocated sects agreed to it and chose Song Yuanqiao to sneak into Eternal Peace Temple at night, Happy saw a brief flash of disdain in He Biweng’s eyes, and slight unease rose in his heart.

“Then how should we deal with Xuanming Elders?”

Song Yuanqiao hesitated for a moment before he said, “A person who is cruel, perverse, and helps the wicked do evil deeds… We should take his life and enforce justice on behalf of heaven, but if we fail, they will still be useful. Leader Hui Xin, is there a remote plate nearby that is devoid of people? We can lock them up there. Once we are done, we can make our decision.”

Once that was agreed upon, the elites of the six great system-allocated sects mobilized their forces and changed their attire before they gathered near Eternal Peace Temple and waited for night to fall.

Happy knew that the success of the quest would mainly rely on whether Great Swordsman Song would successfully deliver the antidote into the tall tower. Since it was so important, Happy used his special privilege to convince the people and left the team to follow Song Yuanqiao to the area outside Eternal Peace Temple.

When night fell, more than ten patrol teams had been added outside the walls of Eternal Peace Temple. The Yuan Dynasty soldiers who moved in and out of the temple had torches in their hands, and they illuminated the temple so much that it looked like day. That greatly increased the difficulty of sneaking in.

‘As expected, Zhao Min noticed,’ Happy thought.

With this sort of situation, he did not dare to recklessly enter Eternal Peace Temple. Even if they were dressed in night traveling clothes, they could not avoid the many pairs of eyes in the temple. They would not be able to enter the tall tower without alerting anyone.

Only Song Yuanqiao, who was in Inaction Realm, could attempt it.

“Great Swordsman Song, please be careful,” Happy reminded him.

Song Yuanqiao was dressed in tight-fitting clothes, and he was like a huge black bird. He swiftly jumped into the air and leapt to a height that the fire could not illuminate before he shot into the temple.

However, soon after Song Yuanqiao entered Eternal Peace Temple, a clear and pleasant shout suddenly came from within. “I wonder which elite you are from Wudang Sect. I am Zhao Min! I have been waiting for your arrival for a long time!”

The woman’s voice was clear, and it spread far and wide.

Happy could hear it clearly outside the temple, but he soon noticed the Yuan Dynasty soldiers inside and outside the temple going into a frenzy. Rumbling sounds could be heard, and their footsteps were quick as they swiftly gathered in the direction of the tall tower.

Happy’s heart let out a loud thump, and a cold chill ran down his spine.

‘Great Swordsman Song was discovered…’

“This is bad!”

Since the Yuan Dynasty soldiers nearby had all left, Happy decided to jump up the wall to observe the situation inside.

When he looked there, he was both surprised and delighted.

What surprised him was that sword flashes could be seen everywhere in the air, and angry shouts rose nonstop. It was clear that Song Yuanqiao had been discovered by the Yuan Dynasty soldiers. He was already surrounded by Zhao Min’s three servants, A’da, A’er, and A’san, and could not break free.

What delighted Happy, however, was that Song Yuanqiao was not discovered near the tall tower. The incident happened at Mahavira Hall!

What caused Happy to be even more tempted to take action was that as the orders to capture the assassin were given, the people within the temple all gathered near the tall tower and Mahavira Hall.

The other places in the temple were barely illuminated, only in small patches. That left most of the places engulfed in darkness.

‘Great Swordsman Song will definitely be captured and sent into the tall tower, and the elites of the six great sects outside the temple will not readily take action without obtaining their signal. Right now, I’ll have to fight with my all!’

Happy gritted his teeth and quickly made his decision.

His body became light, and he jumped up from the wall. With a few more jumps, he moved through the shadows at the speed of lightning. He avoided the Yuan Dynasty soldiers nearby and headed to the tall tower from another direction.
