Kongcang jerked awake. “Wh-what do you want”

Ming Feizhen held up the invitation in his hand. “Youre the one who came up with this bright idea, arent you”

“What nonsense are you spouting”

Ming Feizhen drove his foot into Kongcangs face. “You sure you want to play this game”

Kongcang, trying to stop blood spilling from his nose, responded, “St-stop it. Technically speaking, Im your uncle.”

“Im about to be your maker!” Ming Feizhen turned Kongcangs face sideways with a spinning hook kick.

Bleeding from his mouth, Kongcang replied, “L-lets talk this out… Stop the assault.”

Su Li: “Ming Feizhen, theres no point in beating him. You need to question him.”

Xin Buyi elucidated, “Miss, its called establishing your roles. Another name for it iscaning the suspect fifteen times before granting an audience with the official. Only once his bravado has been shut down will he tell the truth.”

“Thats not right in this context. I have another reason for beating him.” Ming Feizhen, staring holes into Kongcang, elaborated, “I dont like the way he looks.”

“Doesnt that just make it a personal vendetta!”

Ming Feizhen shook his head whilst waving the invitation. “Theres this, too. Since he wants to set Hero Zhuo and me up, theres no doubt he wants to have Hero Zhuo and I hurt each other for his enjoyment. Therefore, theres no need to take a hostage. I surmise this is a backup command he passed on to his subordinate after he left the restaurant and realised I was pretending.”

“Doesnt matter if you know that much. I didnt write the invitation; Lord Miguo wrote it.”

“No wonder why it looks like someone wrote it with his foot. This is culture blasphemy, you traitor!” Ming Feizhen stomped Kongcangs face into the dirt.

They say Shaolins monks self-imposed harshness to train themselves, but Kongcang easily ate more dirt, literally, than any monk ever did.

Kongcang: Why is it my fault that his handwriting is ugly!

Hua Qing: “Give him a break before you hit him again. Youve only been doing the torture part, not the questioning part.”

Once he recovered, Kongcang looked around at everyones reactions. “… I see.” He sat up, then continued, “Hahaha, they succeeded, I see. Yeah, it was me. You think I just ate, drank and slept for all these years I always have a backup plan. I had my men kidnap your family when I first left the restaurant. How else would I make you lot submit”

“All it takes is a blank for you to contrive something, huh” On a rare occasion, Xin Buyi praised, “Pretty fast, huh You really are a bloody genius.”

“Thanks for pointing out the obvious. Regrettably, there was a minor slipup. His Excellency truly possesses great foresight to predict my hiccup and have me bring several invitations with me. Even though I ended up underestimating you, whos the winner now Hero Zhuo, how does it feel to have your wife and son taken from you”

In a low voice, Zhuo Fengru exclaimed, “It was all your work, was it!”

Kongcang offered up a palm-fist salute. “Youre welcome.”

Zhuo Fengru performed an aerial-spinning twist to generate extra power for a downward palm strike that knocked out Kongcangs teeth.

It shouldnt come as any surprise that Kongcangs foes had subdued him in the past. Every time, though, hed start talking to them and then find an opportunity to turn the tables. Unfortunately, his foes this time werent the type to talk before getting physical.

“You frauds are attacking this old one while he is immobilised! Have you no honour! Would any of you dare to face this one man to man!”

Zhuo Fengru drew his sword from his sleeve. “Bring it on!”

“Lets define the conditions properly first. We arent thugs. Hey, hey, hey, put the sword away. Yes, yes, thats it. Put it back in the sheath. Now, where were we Young Hero Ming, please take a seat. Come, come sit here. Dont be so distant.”

Ming Feizhen: All those people who sail with the wind could learn a lot from this old bugger. Nobody has put him in his place when hes been doing this for ages

Kongcang rubbed his hands as if he was sitting at a bonfire with friends. “You, uh, spoken to the one who delivered the invitation, right”

“I guess.”

“In that case, you should know what the conditions are, then.” Kongcang straightened up his torso. “Release me. Else, I cant guarantee the safety of the hostages, hahaha. Wheres the messenger”

Everyone pointed over to the corpse.

“Hahah-” Kongcangs laughing face froze on his face. “You criminals! You dont kill envoys when two states are negotiating! You even turned him into a practice board! Have you no conscience!”

Kongcang: Thank god Im a quick thinker, or Id be in pieces if hes full of arrows.

“Venerable Kongcang.”

“Yes, Young Master Hua”

“I always believed even bad people in the pugilistic world would have some honour. Im sad that…”

Ming Feizhen patted Hua Qing on the back. “Glad youre getting used to it. Dont worry about it,” then asked Kongcang, “So, whats this whatever convention”

“ItsLotus Convention. Its the most important event for Miguo Branch. His Excellency will announce he is the new leader of Lotus Sect at the event. Expect to see plenty of people in the martial world, from friends to foes. Needless to say, enemies will become his nourishment, while friends shall be there to witness his moment of unrivalled glory.”

“What gives him the authority to crown himself Lotus Sects new leader Does he think the Western Regions will leave him be Wait… is Lord Wugou already…”

“His Excellency is obviously making the move because he has confidence in himself. Whats there to fear once he has Repository Jade”

Ming Feizhen pointed out, “And it happens to be with us.”

“Because caution isnt a thing in your world You dare refuse to attend”

Evidently, this was Lord Miguo and Kongcangs true plan. Lord Miguo orchestrated the kidnapping to force them into attending the convention. Kongcang deceived Zhuo Fengru and Ming Feizhen, as well as aimed to pinch Repository Jade. If they compared, the differences in the two strategies were quite pronounced.

“Long-story short, he wants to exchange Lady Zhuo and Zhuo Yupin for Repository Jade Wishful thinking. I already have my promised one hundred thousand taels,” Ming Feizhen mocked.

Hua Qing: “Uh… what are you thinking”-
