Xiang Wudi stared at the departing figure and asked, "Second Brother, you just mentioned that someone from the Righteous Alliance made a move, who was it?"

Yang Ge: "I got the news from the Louwailou; it was the Left Protector of the Righteous Alliance. I forget his exact name, but I remember his surname is Xie..."

Xiang Wudi: "’Iron Pen Judge’ Xie Yanping?"

Yang Ge: "Yes, that’s the man."

Xiang Wudi: "So it was ’Pen Proud,’ no wonder Li couldn’t beat him... I really didn’t see it coming, that these people could actually manage to bring a master from the Righteous Alliance into the fray."

Yang Ge: "I don’t know if the Righteous Alliance is involved, but the information I got was that the person with the surname Xie is from the Kuaiji Xie Clan."

"The Kuaiji Xie Clan?"

Xiang Wudi was shocked: "Second Brother, are you sure you heard it right?"

Yang Ge: "That’s what the people at Louwailou told me!"

Xiang Wudi fell into a thoughtful silence, his gaze flickering, then nodded and said, "I’ll have someone look into this matter... If it really is someone from the Kuaiji Xie Clan, then these people have hidden themselves too deeply!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ge also felt an indescribable sensation... As one devious figure after another emerged, could it really be the onset of utter chaos?

Right then, Li Jincheng also came out from the mourning hall and said to Yang Ge with a fist salute: "Second Brother, thank you..."

Yang Ge slapped his hands away irritably and said: "Have you lost your mind? You naively talk about martial world etiquette while they’re scheming behind your back!"

Lianhuan Fort and Jinfanwu were at odds, and their interfering was breaking the rules, and a master from the Righteous Alliance intervening was not only breaking the rules but also a taboo.

At least, the main temple in Jianghuai belongs to the Ming Sect, which certainly wouldn’t allow the Righteous Alliance from Shandong to reach into the side of their beds.

Li Jincheng chuckled softly and said, "Look at you! Even if I’m incompetent, I’m not so bad that everyone could beat me. There are only so many masters listed in the ’Valor Rankings,’ how could I not know that the man is a hired fist from Jinfanwu?"

Yang Ge, puzzled, asked, "Then why keep silent?"

Li Jincheng pursed his lips, slowly turned his head to gaze at the mourning hall, and said, "My father... held his breath to the very end, just to give me one last push. I couldn’t defy him nor did I want to let him die with regrets, so I had to comply."

He choked up and almost shed tears again, Xiang Wudi silently stepped forward to gently pat his back, helping him steady his emotions. He shook his head, indicating he was all right, and then, mustering an uglier smile than crying, he said, "It’s a pity that the scoundrel is slippery as an eel, always eluding traps to come to the main agency. All of my father’s efforts were in vain!"

He straightened his chest with an effort and smiled at Yang Ge: "Had it not been for the fact they learned of my father’s passing, they wouldn’t dare to come within a step of Lianhuan Fort’s main agency, even if they had double the audacity!"

The three brothers stood in silence, not knowing how to comfort him.

Pitiable is the heart of the parents throughout the world.

And pitiable is the heart of all the filial sons and daughters.

Li, the head of the family, was set on giving his son one last help, whether he actually helped is another matter.

As for Li Jincheng... he might never get over this hurdle in his lifetime!

"Death comes to all, Uncle Li’s passing wasn’t sudden; you should have been prepared for this!"

It took a while for Yang Ge to comfort Li Jincheng: "What you should be doing now isn’t to keep blaming yourself for not living up to expectations, causing Uncle Li to depart this world in unrest, but to brace yourself and figure out how to beat those bastards back, so Uncle Li doesn’t have to worry about you day and night from the underworld..."

He patted Li Jincheng’s shoulder firmly: "As your brothers, we respect whatever decision you make, but the moment you ask, we’re ready to grab our knives and join you in gutting those bastards!"

Li Jincheng winced from the pain but suddenly felt a surge of confidence, and the dire circumstances in front of him suddenly seemed trivial.

Before long, the massive fleet surrounding the water fortress scattered like birds and beasts.

Even the numerous skilled hands of Lianhuan Fort, who had been captured by Jinfanwu, were all released.
