Chapter 1262 - 295: Song Yuanqiao: Chen 94, Wudang Welcomes You as a Friend

Song Yuanqiao stopped in his tracks upon hearing this and looked at Kang Ba.

Kang Ba chuckled and said, "Right, let’s all follow some rules, it benefits us all. As for that kid, do whatever you want with him."

Kang Ba waved his hand to let Chen Jie leave.

Chen Jie bowed to the two of them and turned to leave, but at that moment, Song Yuanqiao called out to him, "Chen Jiusi."

Chen Jie turned back to look at Song Yuanqiao, who clasped his fists and said, "Young Hero Chen, I don’t know if what you just said is true or if you have other intentions. But if what you said is true and you save my two junior brothers, Wudang will not forget your kindness. Wudang is willing to be your friend."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie’s eyes lit up; this was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Chen Jie clasped his fists and said, "Hero Song, rest assured, I, Chen, will do my utmost to rescue the heroes of Wudang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yuanqiao said, "Then I’ll leave it to you."

With that, Chen Jie turned to leave, but after taking just two steps, he heard a voice, "Hey you! Stop."

Chen Jie turned to look at Kang Ba, startled, wondering what he was up to.

Kang Ba said, "Did you bring alcohol?"

Chen Jie was momentarily stunned, then quickly reached to his lower back, took off a wine gourd, and tossed it to Kang Ba, saying, "Master, please."

Upon seeing this, Kang Ba chuckled and said, "Haha, go on."

Then he cheerfully opened the wine gourd, and upon smelling it, his eyes widened; it was strong wine indeed.

"Good wine, good wine..."

Kang Ba waved his hand to let Chen Jie leave, and seeing this, Chen Jie left the place directly, heading straight for the Military Department.

At this point, Kang Ba took a sip of the wine and looked at Song Yuanqiao, saying, "Alright, stop watching. That kid doesn’t seem like a liar; he seems genuinely prepared to save people."

Song Yuanqiao looked at Kang Ba in surprise and asked, "Do you know him?"

Kang Ba said, "I don’t know him."

"Then why are you so sure he’s not lying?"

Kang Ba raised the wine gourd in his hand and said, "This wine is the best evidence."

Song Yuanqiao looked puzzled at Kang Ba, who took another hearty swig and said, "A despicable and insidious person wouldn’t carry such strong wine with them."

Hearing this, Song Yuanqiao squinted his eyes.

Kang Ba said, "This wine, intoxicating!"

Song Yuanqiao pondered; indeed, a devious person always needs to maintain a state of plotting harm, and in such a state, one wouldn’t consume strong wine, as it’s intoxicating, and after drinking, they might accidentally spill secrets, which would ruin their plans.

Therefore, a person carrying strong wine must be a frank and straightforward individual.

Of course, they might not realize that Chen Jie had a storage ring with all kinds of items in it; strong wine, not strong wine, he carried a small warehouse with him. So their judgment might not be entirely accurate.

At this moment, inside the Military Department.

Wudang’s Zhang CuiShan, Yin Liting, the Zoroastrian Sect’s Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da, Tang He, and overseas Divine Dragon Sect’s Qiu Nan, Fang Zheng, and Fang Susu were all cautiously lurking inside the Inspection Envoy’s office.

Yet they failed to notice that in the shadows, Zhang Shicheng was sinisterly watching them with Elder Xie.

Beside them were the Lingnan Three Ghosts, top-notch Dragon Realm experts.

At this moment, they watched as everyone walked step by step into the trap, their mouths slightly curved.

At the same time, among the Jianghu people, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Fifth Hero Zhang, don’t you feel something’s off here?"

Zhang CuiShan said, "Something does feel off."

Fang Susu asked, "What’s off?"

Zhang CuiShan said, "Why haven’t we seen any patrols for so long?"

Just as those words were spoken, a patrol of soldiers appeared in the distance. Fang Susu said, "Look, patrol soldiers."

Zhang CuiShan looked over, still frowning, while Fang Susu nonchalantly approached, grabbing a soldier at the back of the patrol.

The soldier, once caught, heard Fang Susu’s cold words, "Don’t move. Speak honestly, and you can keep your life."

Upon hearing this, the soldier said, "Don’t kill me, don’t kill me."

Fang Susu looked at him and said, "Tell me, where is the Military Department’s treasury?"

The soldier said, "There, over there."

The soldier pointed in a direction. Seeing where he pointed, Fang Susu immediately said, "Let’s go."

With that, she headed straight in that direction, prompting Fang Zheng to shout, "Sister, be careful, it might be a trap."

Qiu Nan also hurried to follow.

Zhang CuiShan saw this, frowned, and said, "Be careful."

But he also headed after them with Yin Liting. Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated; he could choose not to follow, but if Wu Mu’s Legacy was indeed in that treasury, wouldn’t this opportunity be wasted?

Thinking this, he gritted his teeth and rushed there as well.

The group quickly arrived at the treasury entrance, and the soldiers guarding the treasury saw a group of strangers rushing over and angrily shouted, "Who dares trespass in this restricted area? Apprehend them!"

They charged forward, only for Fang Susu to raise her hand, releasing a series of poison needles that instantly knocked these soldiers down.

The few soldiers who managed to get close were also easily taken down by Fang Susu and the others.

At this moment, Fang Susu rushed to the treasury door, then slashed the lock open with a sword, pushing open the Military Department’s treasury.

Soon, the treasury door was open wide.

Fang Susu wanted to enter but was stopped by Qiu Nan, who was the first to walk into the treasury. It was very dark inside, so Qiu Nan took out a Fire Stick and lit it, illuminating the whole treasury instantly, revealing many weapons and armors stored inside. However, these items did not catch Qiu Nan’s attention.

At that moment, both Fang Zheng and Fang Susu entered; Fang Susu lit the candles in the treasury, instantly brightening the surroundings.

And at that moment, Fang Susu immediately spotted Wu Mu’s Legacy placed at the topmost position.

Her eyes lit up, and she reached out to take it.

"Haha, Wu Mu’s Legacy, it’s mine!"

This statement immediately drew the attention of Zhang CuiShan and Zhu Yuanzhang, both of whom rushed inside, seeing in Fang Susu’s hand the very "Wu Mu’s Legacy" that was discussed at today’s meeting.

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted, and Zhang CuiShan wanted to speak, but Qiu Nan looked at the two of them, silencing their words.

Eventually, Zhang CuiShan said, "Miss Susu, this book is ominous. I ask Miss Susu to let Wudang keep it."

Fang Susu glared and said, "You say it’s ominous, so it is? This book belongs to our Divine Dragon Sect now."

Zhang CuiShan was about to say something when suddenly smoke started spewing from all angles of the treasury, causing everyone to panic, "Not good, it’s an ambush!"
