“Ah, yes, of course you would have fought him,” nods Qi Liuwu. “He used to be a cook at the temple. One day he injured the Abbot and escaped from Shaolin. Apparently he learnt some of their techniques without permission.”
“Anyway, my nephew told me that his agents managed to track down and uncover that manual in an old temple just south of Chang’an, hidden behind a Buddhist statue. It was sent to a safehouse for his constables to guard. He hoped to use secrecy as his primary defense, but apparently there is a leak somewhere, compromising his efforts. The constables on duty were no match for the assailants. I do not know much more than this; only the Imperial Constables have access to further information.”
Chengying Sword
A delicate sword with a light, flexible blade. Its maker is unknown, but the history of the sword dates back to the Shang Dynasty, more than two thousand years ago. In the hands of a skilled user, the blade appears almost invisible in action. It was rumoured to be in the possession of the Xiahou clan, a family of bureaucrats and scholars, but since the massacre of the clan the sword has gone missing.
I smell a Grand Eunuch.Whoever took the manual from the constables is far more dangerous than Xuxian. They had access to secret information, and on top of that, they were able to kill the constables who were guarding it with ease. And unlike Xuxian, they have the full set, so they're without a doubt the bigger threat.
I just realised. If B has us sneaking inside Bai Jiutian's bedroom, will we finally be able to determine once and for all what gender he/she is by all the undergarments lying around? That alone should be worth it.
And if she is a woman, well, we have just secured Song Lingshu romance.
We are going in there to speak to him/her. Why would we care if he/she finds us?B-but don't women have supernatural senses detecting foreign presence in their territory?

But I really, really want to get BJ working on bringing Wuxing down.
