"Master, he..."

"You can go out now."

The monk came out of the house, waved to the young monk, and then walked up to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan quickly knelt down and bowed, saying, "Nephew greets Uncle!"

The monk put his hands together and said, "My Buddhist name is Huiyin."

"Uncle!" Lu Yuan kowtowed and said, "Uncle will not bother you unless absolutely necessary! But now, now... this is a matter of life and death for the Lu family!"

The monk Huiyin frowned, his face growing even more ferocious, and asked, "What happened to the Lu family?"

Lu Yuan sobbed, saying, "The patriarch... he's been killed!"

"What?!" Monk Huiyin grabbed Lu Yuan by the collar, lifted him up, and roared, "The Lu family is powerful and influential in Jiangcheng. Who dares to kill my elder brother?"

"They're not outsiders, they're family!"

"who?!"

“A junior, Lu Chen.”

"Outrageous!" Monk Huiyin shoved Lu Yuan away violently and roared, "You're the successor designated by your elder brother, yet you can't even control a child?"

Lu Yuan said helplessly, "Lu Chen is usually very honest and obedient to his elders. No one is wary of him. But... while I was away, he joined forces with Zhao Cheng and the newly appointed governor of Jiangyang County to carry out a bloodbath against the family overnight!"

"It wasn't just the patriarch who died, but also several of your brothers..."

"You beast!" Monk Huiyin suddenly threw a punch, causing a tree ten steps away to shake, leaving a deep fist mark on its trunk.

"Who is Zhao Cheng?" asked the monk Huiyin.

Lu Yuan quickly replied, "He is the eldest son of the Right Chancellor of the Great Jing Dynasty."

"Zhao Huan's son?"

After calming down, Monk Huiyin asked suspiciously, "Isn't Zhao Huan living a retirement life in Yanchuan City? What does he want to do?"

Lu Yuan got up and explained, "As far as I know, this matter should have nothing to do with Zhao Huan. It's just that Zhao Cheng wanted to do business in Jiangyang County, but was hindered by our Lu family and the Tu family. So he first brought down Qi Bainian, and then planted his people in the prefectural governor's office to destroy the Lu family and the Tu family so that he could do business in the future."

"This boy is so vicious, he should be executed!"

"Uncle, that's what I think too, but I'm afraid of the Right Chancellor..."

"Even if this matter has nothing to do with Zhao Huan, this old monk will not stand idly by!"

With his hands clasped behind his back, the monk Huiyin looked like an enraged Vajra and said in a deep voice, "A life for a life is a matter of course. If I can't even avenge my brother, what's the point of my cultivation?"

"Lu Yuan, this old monk will follow you down the mountain!"

...

East of Jiangcheng, on the coast of Jinghai.

The coastline is mostly sandy beaches, but there are also stone forests.

In a stone forest, a man dressed in black and wearing a black straw hat stands in the seawater, holding two swords.

As the sun sets and the tide rises and falls.

Whenever the waves crashed in, he would wield his twin swords and use them to part the waves.

This process repeats itself, much like a machine with fixed movements.

Tu Wanhu led a group of people into the stone forest. Upon seeing him, he immediately said, "You all wait here!"

As he spoke, he walked alone behind the black-clad double-swordsman.

"Great Hero Wu Bu, we've finally found you!"

"Judging from the sound, is Master Tu here?" The man called Wu Bu did not turn around and continued to slash at the waves with his twin swords.

"It's me!"

"Did Master Tu come to see me to paint a picture for me?"

"No, no!" Tu Wanhu clasped his hands behind Wu Bu's back and said, "I would like to invite the great hero Wu Bu to Jiangcheng."

Wu Bu said, "Inviting me is tantamount to murder. Whom do you want to kill?"

Tu Wanhu said, "Zhao Cheng!"

"I, Wu Bu, wielding two swords, never kill nameless nobodies."

"Great Hero Wu Bu, Zhao Cheng is no nobody!"

"Oh?" Another wave crashed in, and Wu Bu continued to slash, saying, "A rising star emerging from the martial world?"

"He's not a member of the martial arts world," Tu Wanhu shouted. "He's the eldest son of the Right Chancellor of the Great Jing Dynasty, the consort of the Princess, and the victorious general of the imperial court!"

Wu Bu paused for a moment before sheathing his sword and turning to look at Tu Wanhu.

The straw hat covered his forehead, obscuring his eyes, but revealing his straight nose and sharply defined chin.

He said, "You want me to kill Zhao Huan's son? Do you want me to be hunted down by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion for the rest of my life?"

Tu Wanhu, undaunted, stepped closer and said, "This is a big deal. I, Tu, am willing to offer a hefty sum to invite the great hero Wu Bu to help me!"

Wu Bu shook his head and said, "If it were a master from the martial arts world, I might go with you, but Zhao Cheng is a member of the imperial court, which is troublesome, and I don't like trouble."

Tu Wanhu said sternly, "Although Zhao Cheng is not a member of the martial arts world, the experts around him are!"

"He has two top-notch experts by his side, both of whom are formidable swordsmen, just like you!"

"His swordsmanship is extremely fast; he can create beautiful patterns with a swift stroke!"

"The other one is the successor of the Two-Broken Blade!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Bu visibly paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "The Two-Piece Blade?"

Tu Wanhu said solemnly, "I saw it with my own eyes, there is absolutely no falsehood!"

"That's interesting..."

Wu Bu gently pulled his bamboo hat down a little, a hint of a smile in his voice, and said, "If you had said so earlier, we wouldn't have wasted all this time."

Tu Wanhu breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "I am extremely grateful for the help of the great hero Wu Bu!"

Wu Bu walked towards Tu Wanhu, paused as they passed each other, and said, "The money still needs to be paid."

Tu Wanhu immediately replied, "I will definitely reward you handsomely!"
