So I guess if you don't join the cult, you'd fight against them, but does Ji still joins them or stay with you?

Spoiler

Ji leaves and joins the cult no matter what, but he can redeem himself during the final bossfight

226 - Revelation

Spoiler

I followed him to his meeting place.

Hmph, one never goes to the temple for nothing. Seeing that you came all the way here, I believe you wanted something from me. What is it?

Hah, as straightforward as ever. Well, then I guess I should be honest with you too. I have to say you are a capable man, Xuanming Zi. You even managed to get Fang Yunhua on board.

I don't think the meeting you had with Fang was that simple, was it?

Oh, what do you mean by that?

If I am right, Fang is actually your planted agent who infiltrated the Shaolin Temple so he could find out about the key to the Sanctuary!

My, what an over the top imagination you have.

You don't need to lie to me. My senior, Zhuo has fallen ill lately and none of those well-known doctors can figure out why.

But I know he was poisoned by Fang Yunhua, that cold-blooded kid, hehe. I don't think Zhuo will survive. And the Master's position will most likely belong to Fang very soon.

I guess you're telling me all this for a good reason? Is this about Wudang's leadership?

Hmph. Fang is a cunning, dangerous kid and your spy. With all the trust Zhuo puts in him, I'll never have the chance to become Master of the Sect.

And now I might even become one of his obstacles in assuming the leadership. With the way things are now, I have to constantly watch my back, or I'm likely to end up just like Zhuo!

Who would've thought a brat could scare you this much? HA HA HA! Zhuang Renjun, you really are an old man!

Cut the crap! I helped you a lot back in the day, shouldn't you at least return the favor?

I don't recall anything about us working together.

So that's how it's going to be? Don't forget I was the one who told you about Dongfang Xi being the undercover agent that was sent by Wudang Sect!

(Isn't that my father's name?)

Hmmm... maybe you did?

Look, you help me get rid of Fang and after I become the Master, we can continue working together happily, just as we used to.

...

Also, without my information, do you really think you could have gotten rid of that troublesome couple, Dongfang Xi and Gongxiyao? Compared to Fang Yunhua, I'm a much better partner for you, don't you think?

When you put it that way, it makes a lot of sense.

I need your help so I can become the new Master of Wudang. And as soon as you gain control of the Cult of Tianlong, I will be the first one to fight beside you! We will go big this time.

Fine, point taken. I will consider your proposal carefully. You should go back now and wait for news from me. Be careful and don't alert the brat.

I'll wait for your good news.

Xuanming Zi only needed a moment to react to his 'partner's turned back.

Of course I remember. If he hadn't gone insane, he'd be our team captain by now.

Yeah, that incident was decades ago but Zhang is still the same to this very day.

That day must have been horrifying, thank god I wasn't there at that time!

You're right, no one would've thought that Dongfang Xi and his wife were capable of slaughtering hundreds of sect hunters who were chasing them down. Even our assassins were included in the casualty. Were they even human?

The ones that got killed were elites handpicked by our Lord as well. Only Zhang survived that ordeal. He went insane afterward.

Speaking of that crazy man, do you know where he is now?

Someone mentioned that they saw him at an abandoned temple before.

Hm. Should we go to pay him a visit? He is still one of us after all.

Nah, it's pointless because I doubt he'll remember any of us. Don't forget that the Nagaraja forbids anyone from mentioning Dongfang Xi. We should stop this talk.

Right. Let's get back to work.

What did you call me?!

Don't kill me please!

Yes! I am Dongfang Xi! Give me back my life!

Left Guardian! I dare not kill you! I didn't even lift a finger! The Left Guardian couple has always been good to me... cough cough .. I wouldn't dare to be ungrateful!

You saw it. You saw it all, didn't you?!

Yes! I could never forget that! It was so horrible. Please don't make me recall...

Tell me everything you know! Tell me!

So many people... they were after you and your wife. You killed many... They are after the Key to the Sanctuary's whereabouts.

Everyone just went mad like beasts, killing each other... blood! So much blood!

Who were the hunters?! Answer me or I'll kill you!

Everyone! The Cult, the Central Sects as well - Shaolin, Wudang, Qingcheng, Huashang, the Blades... they all joined the chase. The Allied Sects was lead by the famous Hero of Liaodong - Gu Yunfei.

Gu Yunfei - Yuexuan's father?

Gu Yunfei killed me and my wife?!

Gu Yunfei killed your wife in one blow... you howled and screamed.

Argh! That bastard!

And then... Xuanming Zi... Xuanming Zi came and took Yunfei by surprise! Gu Yunfei was mortally wounded and perished so quickly. Xuanming Zi rushed to your side and promised to aid you.

And then?

You ran forward, picked up the fallen Lady and cried so hard that you didn't even notice Xuanming Zi aiming at your back, killing you! I saw it... I saw it all!

Please! I am not your killer! Please let me go, Xuanming Zi is the one who killed you!

Xuanming Zi! AHHHHH!

 

[RK47]

227 - Bitter Resolve

Spoiler

Yuexuan once said his father was slain while hunting villains. Those villains were my parents! His father killed my mother! I will avenge her! Yuexuan, you'll see!

But Xuanming Zi is the biggest bastard of them all. That coward killed my father! My mother's jade pendant... he took it from her corpse while searching for the key to the Sanctuary.

Xuanming Zi... I will kill you. And all the sects in Central China who hunted down my parents. Those men used the guise of justice to hide their lust for power!

But there is one more person... the Master of Wudang Sect, Zhuo Renqing. He was my father's senior. He must know of my father's mission. I have to interrogate him personally. Just you wait, Zhuo Renqing... perhaps you will become the first blood I draw as tribute!

(It seems he is seriously ill. God's willing, every action has its consequence.) Zhuo Renqing, look at me!

Ah. Y-you are...is that you? Brother Xi? Y-you've finally come to see me?

For all these years, I have wished to see you... every single day. It is all my fault. I wish I had not hesitated at that time. I wish it was me who accepted the undercover mission.

Then maybe.. you would still be alive. I don't blame you, brother, for betraying us. I should have known. The two leaders of the Cult were too dangerous and your heart was too pure. Sending you to the cult was like sinking a blank paper into a pot of black ink. *cough cough*

It was us... who got you killed. I failed you. Am I going to die soon? Are you here for my life?

(It's true... Everything they said. All of it is true!)

Take my life, Xi. I am responsible for everything. Ah, do you hear that? It's the bell for morning exercise. We need to hurry up for the gathering or Master will be angry.

(I'll take your worthless life now, Zhuo Renqing. This is for my parents!)

Just dealing with some personal affairs.

Hm? Alright then. We've got a lot of things to accomplish. Things are shaking up as we speak. Zhuo Renqing is suffering from a serious disease, he's been bedridden for days. And Tianshan Sect is in an uproar because their precious disciple He Qiujuan is missing. Haha! Both of them is the handiwork of Fang Yunhua. This brat is becoming more insidious.

According to my spies report, Fang Yunhua was seen frequently loitering near the abandoned temple in Chengdu and has frequent contact with Tang Guannan, the young master of Tangmen Clan. I believe Zhuo Renqing's disease may be related to Tangmen's poisons.

As for the sweet He Quijuan, I believe Fang has been lusting for her for some time. My spies reporting a woman's voice often comes out from that temple. I'm afraid the poor girl has already been deflowered by Fang Yunhua.

This brat is getting too far ahead of himself, I'm afraid he will turn against us sooner or later. We must control him with the Pellet of Absolute Obedience as soon as possible. Prevention is better than cure, as they say.

Furthermore, I have a meeting with the representative of the Eunuchs at Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou. He requires... my assistance in regards to the Beggars' Sect.

After which, the rest of the sects will be dealt with, one at a time. Poisonous Dragon Clan, Baicao, Tangmen, Blades, etc. We need every single one of them subjugated to gain more leverage.

Once done, we'll take charge of these forces, and we'll be powerful enough to revolt against the Nagaraja and seize control of the Cult. Together we'll then wipe out the major sects like Shaolin, Wudang, the Huashan Sect, and the Beggars' Sect. Once victory is ours, we'll dominate the entire martial arts world! Hahahahahaha!

What about Thunder Hall?

They're not important. They've been severely weakened after an attack 20 years ago. They're not worth the trouble.

Qin Hongshang... I guess we won't cross blades. Lucky you.

Since we've already laid down the plan, we need to act fast. If they form alliances, they will be much more difficult to deal with.

228 - Jiang Mansion Revisited

Spoiler

I defended this place once from the Cult. Now I arrive as its invader.

I have heard so many things about you. As for your character and deeds, they are not for me to judge.

I presume it's an honor that the famous Mr. Jiang have heard about me?

Yes, I've heard of your escapades and of your treacheries. However, it's not up to me to judge. But these two young men from Xiaoyao Valley, they have a bright future ahead of them. It is unfortunate that they made some bad acquaintances and became the Cult's puppets.

You two, it's not too late to undo your mistakes. If you really wish for repentance, I promise, I will talk to the other Sects and they'll take you in.

I believe that is what your old master must hope for. Master Wuxia Zi is very old, do you have the heart to make him suffer such sadness?

Hmph, there is already Gu Yuexuan in Xiaoyao Valley and that's enough. There's no point talking to someone who follows a different path. I don't care what is right or what is wrong. The only thing that matters is reaching the top and dominating the martial arts world! If you dare to stop me, I'll kill you as well!

What a pity.

There are a lot of things you don't know about me.

A good for nothing is always a good for nothing, always clamoring for attention.

You dare call me a good for nothing?

I know that your Bagua Clan is so afraid of us, otherwise why do you cling to Mr. Jiang like a parasite? Do you think Mr. Jiang can protect you?

What insolence!

Easy. Calm down. We did not come here to fight. Instead I have brought something I want to share. Let's bury the hatchet, shall we?

No way we will make peace with the Cult!

Shang Zhongren, shut your mouth or I'll cut off your tongue later!

Try me!

Easy, Ji. Jiang, Master Shang, I've brought some pills which are good for your health. I've made it especially for you. Please take them.

Ha! We'd be lucky if they are not poison!

Thank you, but I must decline, Xuanming Zi.

What on earth are you planning?

Ah, what a shame. Now that you've declined, I have to take some tough measures to force you to eat them.

Wishful thinking. Your lives end here!

Hehe, forgive me Mr. Jiang, I might dirty your home with their blood.

Since you two have refused to come to your senses, then I'll have to be merciless when I deal with you.

Come on, Mr. Jiang. If I were you, I'd have us killed the moment we stepped into your mansion. It's a pity that you've made this fatal mistake.

 

[abnaxus]

Kill them all. Buddha will return them to the Wheel.

Just as the last disciples fell, the masters and their two top disciples joins the fight. Assholes.

ShiDi Fen is now that type of guy who arrives at your door offering some free pills and beats the shit out of you if you refuse him.
Is there still hope for his soul? Or he will be lost forever to the darkness?

230 - The Rout Continues

Spoiler

Hm. Jiang Tianxong... he is more than meets the eye. I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture him. So be it. Now, where were we?

What!

You fiend!

Pellet of Absolute Obedience... the legendary Corpse Mind Pellet! It is the poison that was used by the former Cult Master Ren to control others! Hahaha! I didn't expect... that I would...

Shang Heming, if your Bagua Clan acts according to my order, I'll promise you the delivery of the antidotes twice a year. But if you dare to do otherwise...

Fine! From now on the Bagua Clan will act in obedience to the orders of the Cult of Tianlong.

Damn it!

Zhongren, it seems you want to say something?

No. Nothing.

Hahaha. Let's go.

Aside from Master Jiang there are two other famous heroes residing in Luoyang. One of them is the Master of Changhong Escort Company.

Well, I'm not here just to give my courtesy. I'm here to demand that you submit to me.

You arrogant bastard! You'll pay! Fight me!

Nothing but a mere child's trickery. You are not a worthy opponent. Come, Guan Changhong. Face me. Don't be a coward.

Hmph. You have the first move.

Li, what are you doing?! Get away!

(She knows the Finger guessing fist? Well then...)

A combination of soul breaker poison palm and fan blinding techniques ended his resistance easily.

Cough! What was that?

The Pellet of Absolute Obedience made by Xuanming Zi. If you do not take the antidote on time, it would lead to a painful death. So, do we have a deal?

Hmph! I did not expect such ruthlessness from one as young as you. Fine. You win. From now on I'll submit to you.

Dad! How could you do that?

Wei, stop talking. We need to stay out of trouble.

A wise man submits to circumstances. You made the right decision. From now on Changhong Escorts shall act according to our orders. And Guan Wei, you will serve me.

No!

Go, son.

I'm only doing this because I have to! Don't count on my loyalty!

Only one target left in Luoyang.

 

[RK47]

231 - Broken Swords

Spoiler

I'm here to bring peace to the martial arts world.

Peace? You freak, what the hell are you saying?

The fundamental reason why there are so much hatred and grudges in the martial arts world is that because it lacks a leader. Every sect and clan has been fighting for years. So many means used; so many people have died; so many unique styles of martial arts have been lost. Even the Heavenly Sword is degrading generation by generation.

How dare you!

Am I wrong? Just think of the era of the Nameless One. There were so many great talents like the Five Masters of Central China, Qiao Feng, Murong Fu, the Condor Heroes, the Cult Master Dongfang Bubai. Every single one of them has carved their own legend in the history of martial arts.

But now, the martial arts world is filled with trash like you. Just take you, Master Ximen, as an example, a hundred years ago, you wouldn't even rank as a third-rate martial artist.

Once our Cult dominates the whole martial arts world, the first step we will take is to settle the differences between sects and clans; then unify their styles and develop them. With that, we can finally make the martial arts world great again just like a hundred years ago!

Ahahahah! A fine speech, Di Fen!

Enough with your bullshit. Today my father and I will bring you to justice!

Wrong again. From this day onward, justice belongs to the Cult of Tianlong!

I won't be a jackal of the Cult, like you! You shameless freak!

What a stubborn man. No more words should be wasted on you.

(Shi Di Fen seems to have changed a lot lately, but his words hold some truth.)

You two are competent enough to deal with the Heavenly Sword Clan. I'll just sit over here and watch. Hahaha!

I can take them on my own! Just watch!

I never doubted your ability, but now that we are working for the Cult, it's not the right time to show off. Let's do it together and finish it quickly.

Tsch! To each his own then!

The audacity! Feng, attack!

You.. what is that pellet we have taken?!

Hahaha, nothing. Just the Pellet of Absolute Obedience that I specially made for you.

What is that! Dad! What on earth have we taken!

It's the most terrible poison in the world. If we don't take the antidote on time, the poisonous insects will break out of the pill...causing extensive damage to its host's organs and release its toxins.

You won't feel anything but excruciating pain for the next 49 days. Oh, I happen to have the antidote.

How despicable of you to use such means! You goddamn bastards!

If your Clan act in obedience to our order, the antidote will be delivered to you on time. If not, a grim fate awaits you.

I've been through so much in the martial arts world... only to get such an end...

Better think it through.

We accept your offer.

Damn it! I hate myself for lacking strength!

And so the Sects of Luoyang has fallen under the control of the Cult.

 

[Reinhardt]

Build the WALL!

232 - The Swordsmith's Manor

Spoiler

Shi Di Fen, why do you resort to this?

Save your breath.

All right then. Disciples! Form up!

I find it laughable that a clan focused on crafting weapons claim to want to avoid fighting. What good are weapons not used for fighting?

Wow...impressive display of power.

Hahaha! That's more like it! Let the battle be joined!

Stacking defense is not a bad idea. Getting over 1000 in defense will reduce incoming damage by 60%.

This opener is just way too good not to use. I'm pretty sure in the 'nice goy' route a lot of players would be cursing and swearing when Xuanming Zi pulls this move on them.

Attrition through reflected damage is the biggest bane of fighters without self-heal options. That is why most builds cannot avoid the necessity of having an in-built self heal feature.

The reason I picked Ximen Feng is simple - AOE Blinding that can stack with my blinds. Since each blind roughly means -20% that would make the enemy having to deal with a 50% hit chance when they do a frontal attack.

Come to think of it, I cannot wait to get Jiannan into my party. Two killing momentum fighters in a single group are going to be delicious.

Such a retarded battle plan. They didn't hurt anyone much this turn.

If the AI fails to shut down Jing Ji, it's an easy win after he mops up all the fodder and spams killing momentum slashes. Total damage inflicted this turn from him alone numbers around 6000-7000.

233 - Into the Shark's Lair

Spoiler

Master Ren, do we have an agreement?

It is fate, what else can I say? Xuanming Zi, you win.

Good. Hahaha!

Why did things turn out to be like this...

Come with us, Jiannan. The Cult of Tianlong demands your service.

Ah, the mortal coil. What's the difference between life and death...

Maybe if you had stopped making weapons, take up calligraphy. Origamis, whatever!

Hehe, of course. I promise, as long as you are willing to assist our cult in becoming the overlord of the world of martial arts, we'll support you fully when Duke Cheng's revolt begins.

Excuse me? Rise up in revolt? You're serious?

Xuanming Zi, your lackey talks too much.

What did you just say!

Ji, hold your tongue. Lord Chen is planning a coup to take out the incompetent emperor. Once it's done, we will gain our own share of privileges. After all, there is no force that has greater power than the Imperial Court.

Xuanming Zi, say no more. What I want is action. All I care about about is the results. The Beggar's Sect poses an obstacle to my plans. We share a common enemy in them.

Right. Those damn beggars are everywhere in this country. They're the most populous sec in Central China and its leader Ke Xianglong is a great master of martial arts, so it's troublesome indeed.

I will try my best to destroy them with the Court's influence, but you have to do your part.

And what might that be?

I have already sent spies to several headquarters of the Beggar's Sect. Soon I will round them all up. But my confidential letter was intercepted by a few members of their sect. I do not want them to expose my identity and foil my plans.

The thieves have split up into three groups, they were last seen in Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Luoyang. I want you to wipe out these three groups to avoid any future troubles.

We will take care of them.

Good. It is a crucial matter. Succeed, and I can promise that I shall thin their ranks which means less of them to oppose your Cult.

That is agreeable. Those goddamn beggars' days will soon be numbered.

I hope you will not disappoint me.

The meeting ended. I tried searching the entirety of Hangzhou but could not find any trace of the beggars we were hunting for. Frustrated, I moved on to other targets.

The pirate leader wasted no time and signalled his men to surround us.

What business do the likes of you have with the Sea Shark Clan?

We're here to demand your loyalty to us.

You want the Sea Sharks to be your lap dog? In your dreams! We're not men with the kindest hearts, but we'll die before consorting with your cult.

You're right, these dogs can really bark! A group of dogs that have forgotten their master who fed and took care of them. What a waste of food it was for Wuxia Zi to feed both of you.

Hey, isn't this Lu Shaolin, the young master of the Golden Wind Security Escorts? Not only does your reputation fall behind the Changhong Escorts, but your skills are also mediocre. It's pointless to waste our pellets on the likes of you.

You blind dog, what are you barking about? Louder, I can't hear you!

Sharp tongue, eh? Then I'll make sure to numb your insolent tongue and slowly torture you to death.

No point in wasting our breath! You think you can take us on all at once? I will make sure you Cultists have no chance to even regret it!

Well said, brother! We will never surrender to you! If you're looking for a fight, then you'll get one!

Great. Let's give it our all!

235 - Poison for the Poisoner

Spoiler

You are welcome. Speaking of which, I do have something to discuss with you.

Master Huang, do tell.

Emissary Xuanming, the terms we agreed upon were of cooperation between the Cult of Tianlong and the Poisonous Dragon Clan, yet time and time again you used our disciples as guinea pigs for your poisonous experiments! Care to explain that?

Huh! You seriously did that?

It's true. I invented a new concoction recently, thus I was in dire need of test subjects who had been continously exposed to poisons. The disciples of Poisonous Dragon Clan fits this requirement perfectly. This is the only way to make sure the poison works.

But of course, in the process of testing, fatality is unavoidable. It is sad but this is how it must be done. Please do not be so upset, Master Huang. We are all servants of the Lord Nagaraja after all.

Their lives might not concern you, but if the situation escalates, my men will lose their trust in me and how am I going to maintain my position as the Clan Master then?

Besides, we are more than willing to sacrifice our lives for our ancestors, knowing that we die with great honor and our souls will join them in the afterlife. But this, to die after being toyed around by your experiments... it is simply unacceptable!

Haha, my bad, my bad. Here, take this gift from me, it should be enough as a token of compensation.

A pellet? No thanks, I'm not interested. Please leave now, Emissary Xuanming!

Are you sure, Master Huang? This is the famed Pellet of Absolute Obedience. I'm sure you've heard of this, yes?

You! How did you! Speak now! Where is the Compendium of Toxicants?

Hahahaha! Chill out, Master Huang. I am in need of a test subject you see...

How dare you!

Haha! Jing Ji, Di Fen! Grab her!

Bastard, return the Compendium to us!

You seem to forget your current situation. Do I need to remind you of the consequence of disobeying me?

We have been faithful allies of the Cult for generations, why are you doing this?

That's where you are mistaken, I want you to obey me, not Lord Nagaraja.

I see. Xuanming Zi, you're planning to betray Lord Nagaraja?

Whatever you say, but please don't forget, the fate of your entire clan is in my hands now. Do you really wish to be the last Clan Master of the Poisonous Dragon Clan?

You... *cries*

Tsk! I've had enough of this! Shi, let's go!

236 - Qingcheng Sect Revisited

Spoiler

Not really. The Nagaraja doesn't know we're here.

Eh? So what brings you here?

We're here to ask you a small favor.

I'll spare nothing to help the Cult in any way we can. We'll empty our purse if need be.

Really? Humph, then take this pill.

Wha-what is this?

You don't need to know. Just take it.

Since this is not the Nagaraja's order, you'd better explain yourself.

Sigh, I guess we need to make you submit to us the old way.

Qingcheng Sect gimmick is basically: I crit and I trigger god mode. Also, fuck your debuff.

That's absurd, they can actually hit all three of us.
And those crits hurt like hell.

The debuff will only be cleared on their turn, so the dizziness is still helpful.

I just find this encounter way too chancy for my taste. Somehow it worked out through RNG.

It's the Pellet of Absolute Obedience made to control you.

Control?

Xuanming Zi has big plans and wants you to obey his orders.

You're asking me to rebel against the Nagaraja?! Aren't you afraid of me telling him about your treachery?

Try it, the poison will send you to hell. And it's a long road to hell filled with immeasurable pain and agony.

You!

You have two options now: Join us or die.

I... Fine! I will follow your orders from now on!

Great. You're smart.

The home of the Matchless Broadsword. I'm sorry Xiahou Fei, my old friend. It needs to be done...

You've got to be joking! This clan will never bow to you!

Cut the bullshit and fight me.

Xiahou Fei, do not resist. It's useless. You know very well that you are no match for us.

You ask me to give up my honor and bow before the Cult? Never! I would rather die!

Teach them a lesson, lads.

I'm sorry for this.

Humph! I'll take care of you both for Master Wuxia Zi!

 

[RK47]

237 - Whatever it takes

Spoiler

After taking my Pellet of Absolute Obedience, a painful death shall await you two if the antidote is not taken regularly. Fortunately, I can provide the antidote - if you pledge your service to me.

So what! I'm not afraid of death! Listen up you evil bastards, there is one thing more important than my life: honor. It is my defeat today, so just take my life. I'd rather die than yield to evil!

Father, I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough to defeat them. Let's meet again in the afterlife.

Fei!

Xiahou Fei, what are you doing? Stop it!

I knew this would happen.

That voice - Furong! You bastards! What have you done to her? How dare you!

Xiahou Fei, you may be brave when it comes to your own life, but I wonder what would you choose if your actions determine the lives of innocent people around you.

Haha, nice work, kid! You and I have become more alike!

Ji, I don't care about right and wrong. The end justifies the means. Xiahou Fei is more valuable to us alive than dead. If he cooperates, then the casualties can be kept to minimal.

You!

Help me! Don't do this! No!

Asshole, release her or I'll kill you first!

Enough! Xiahou Cheng, I'll ask you one last time, will Clan Matchless Broadsword obey me? Think very carefully before answering. Think of all the people living in Chengdu. The people you care about. You know what will happen if you turn down my offer, don't you?

Xiahou Cheng of the Matchless Broadsword... at your service.

Furong... Furong! I'll do whatever you ask. Just let her go. She's innocent! Shi Di Fen, please, don't get her involved...

Master, it seems the Xiahous are being cooperative. Great news, isn't it?

Definitely. You've done a really fantastic job, my treasured disciple.

Xiahou Fei, don't worry too much. As long as you obey, no harm will come to her.

This is a disgrace! I... Just this once! If this happens again, I'll kill you with no hesitation... I don't care who you are!
