Chapter IV: Meeting of the Orthodox Sects on Mt. Kunlun1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPiOENdcMg
The sun shines brightly on the clear blue morning sky on Mt. Kunlun. On the Great Hall of the Kunlun School, the Chiefs of Kunlun, Huashan, Wudang, Emei, Kongtong and Qingcheng Sects, as well as the Abbot of Shaolin, meet in order to discuss about how to deal with Lung Chang. All Chiefs are served tea while servants of the Kunlun School fan them with white folding fans. Piao Zhen, Chief of Kunlun Sect, sits on a simple wooden chair on the center of the Hall, in contrast with the other Chiefs who sit on lavishly decorated with gold chairs. All Chiefs, except for Priest Yue Li, Chief of Wudang Sect, and Abbot Yongyu of Shaolin, who wear their religious clothes, wear lavish gowns made of silk. Only Piao Zhen wears a simple black gown.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3pTIC3G68

Piao Zhen smiles and sips his tea. He then says: "Honorable Chiefs of the Orthodox Martial Arts Sects, I welcome all of you to Mt. Kunlun and hope that this meeting shall solve the recent troubles of the Martial Arts World."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBjfIyRP0J
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyTgB8gpXo
All Chiefs respectfully greet Piao Zhen and thank him for hosting the meeting, except for the Chief of Qingcheng Sect, the elderly Pan Tong, who just sighs. Because Piao Zhen is a relative young Chief, only in his late twenties, Pan Tong, who is in his early eighties, does not respect him much. Piao Zhen ignores Pan Tong's rudeness and continues his speech.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgGuooKc8D
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLjwmp1Cxv
"Honorable Chiefs, although I am the youngest of all of you and the Kunlun Sect is not nearly as populous or powerful as your Sects, I took the initiative to host a meeting of the Orthodox Sects on Mt. Kunlun because the one who massacred the Guan and Jia families in Kaifeng was once a student of our school."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl6CqQB59B
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UJQ35Ng4V
"At least you know your place!", Pan Tong shouts loudly. Piao Zhen, however, manages to stay calm and ignores him. He is not nicknamed 'Gentleman Swordsman' for nothing.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLXFfBpCdE
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aOhFKlg7V
"I do not believe Lung Chang committed those massacres.", Priest Yue Li says. "I met him on Mt. Dragon and he proved to be a real gentleman and a chivalrous hero. Also, if he did commit the murders, why did he wrote his name on the Mansions of the Guan and Jia families?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZqBPo272s
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRlCPYW210
"Indeed.", adds Abbot Yongyu of Shaolin, an old man with long white beard, long eyebrows and prayer beads around his neck. "Only a lunatic would do that."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShnuzvzOPi
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmGmQMUBrS
"But he is a lunatic.", replies Abbess Meijoui of Emei Sect, an old woman with long grey hair and wearing a grey Taoist robe. Abbess Meijoui is well known for her great martial arts and swordsmanship skills, as well as for her strict moral code. "His killing of Wu Jing last year was witnessed by many people. Also, it is well known that he is very proud. That's why he massacred Master Wu Kang and his entire family after being forced to apologize to them by his Master, the late Master Song Yan. He then murdered his own teacher and the proof for this is that Master Song Yan's last words were Lung Chang's name. He is an erratic man who enjoys gaining fame by massacring people. That's why he paints his name on the walls of the Mansions' of his victims."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lQE1FsqaS
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3zXgOR8Rl
The rest of the Chiefs applaud Abbess Meijoui and Yue Li and Abbot Yongyu realize that they cannot do anything to help Lung Chang. Although the evidence that Lung Chang's enemies have could not really be called and the most strong, there are nevertheless evidence, while Yue Li and Abbot Yongyu have no evidence of Lung Chang's innocence at all. And since they do not have any evidence, they have to accept the official position of the Orthodox Sects, that Lung Chang is a lunatic murderer.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqiOUVebUI
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wgd9gQQ9j
Piao Zhen continues his speech: "Those massacres, and our inability to prevent them, show that there is something wrong with what we are doing. Lung Chang is only one person, but through so many centuries countless such evil people or even whole Sects appear that cause uproar in the Martial Arts World and do not allow peace and justice to exist. Killing Lung Chang could stop the problem for now, but sooner or later an other evil man or organization shall shake the Martial Arts World. The only way to stop this is for all Orthodox Martial Arts Sects to unite."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKrlDsBw5U
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6kMebgDX7
"Indeed!", Abbess Meijoui agrees. "We should unite in order to stop evil from spreading. Lung Chang is just the problem of those years. A few years later, someone else will appear and cause an uproar. If we unite, however, no evil men shall cause trouble in the Martial Arts World and even if they dare to, we shall be able to respond quickly and with overwhelming force."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BRAbhSRLy
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyWzOji79D
"I agree!", Pan Tong states. Although he disregards Piao Zhen, he knows that what he said was logical. He also has the ambition of him becoming leader of the new Alliance. "United we are strong, divided we are weak! One arrow can easily be smashed. But many arrows together are impossible to be smashed."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aVs7EcBVA
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOk1jDzmXF
Soon, all other Chiefs express their agreement, except for Yue Li and Abbot Yongyu, who do not like the idea of all Orthodox Martial Arts Sects being united under one man. So, when Piao Zhen asks Priest Yue Li for his opinion, he replies: "Our Sects have each a history of hundreds of years. Each Sect has it's own traditions and rules, so how can we possibly merge them and forget our traditions? And how can we trust one man to become leader of the entire Martial Arts World? I strongly disagree!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD8BbkYbBo
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUEA5o7uuy
"Since Priest Yue Li disagreed, I, Abbot Yongyu of Shaolin, because of the long standing friendship between Shaolin and Wudang, cannot agree."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JJqpT4cKR
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTg62Qir66
"Very well.", Piao Zhen replies. "However, I would like to ask all Chiefs to stay here in Mt. Kunlun, so we can meet five days later. Merging the Orthodox Sects is an important issue which cannot be decided in just a few minutes. So, in those days, everyone please think about and make a wise decision."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PeLY0cpKl
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqZVDx1yNq
Many hours later, in the night, Priest Yue Li argues in his room with his brother in arms, Zhang Yude. Although Zhang Yude is a senior of Yue Li, their teacher made Yue Li instead of him Chief of Wudang and this makes Zhang Yude very jealous. However, this is not the reason why they are arguing. The reason is that Zhang Yude is a firm believer of Piao Zhen's proposition and wants the Orthodox Sects to unite.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvsA10plC8
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBRLxNExG6
"Chief!", Zhang shouts, "You should agree to Piao Zhen's proposal. For centuries, the reason the Orthodox Sects have been unable to prevent evil men from doing harm is their disunity. This is a chance to unite and achieve ever lasting peace in the Martial Arts World. How can you refuse it?!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImcYH45joS
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTePsXvVLLN
"Brother Yude, each Sect has a history of hundreds of years. Each Sect has it's own traditions and laws. I am not against closer cooperation between the Orthodox Sects, but we cannot just merge all Sects."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9jnj3dVrY
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQnOLtz1C1
"In my opinion, you are only interested in keeping your position as Chief!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mKg7126pq
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv3isQz7dC
Zhang Yude storms out of the room. He then walks alone on a cliff on Mt. Kunlun and gazes at the bright moon. The moon and the stars on the night sky remind him certain lyrics of Cao Cao's 'Short Song Style' poem:1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5amp9Aoit
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykZ9DmimrA
"Bright is the moon's spark, when can I pick it apart?" and "Stars around the moons are few, southward the crows flew."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Yno9KPrUL
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABe2sxGJkw
He sighs as he remembers the day when his teacher gave the 'Seal of Command' to Yue Li instead of him. "Yue Li was my junior, but he became leader of the Sect! It is so unfair. Teacher was biased and a fool.", Zhang Yude thinks. Anger, jealously and hatred flare up within Zhang Yude all at once. "Instead of giving to me the 'Seal of Command', he gave it to that idiot! And now, this stupid and muddle-headed idiot gets on the way of bringing peace to the Martial Arts World! Thanks to his persistence in maintaining his position as Chief, the Orthodox Sects shall never be united!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF8s9NsX8U
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BZYe8j4CS
All the anger and jealously of Zhang Yude comes spilling out. He pulls out his sword, a long, elegant and thin blade, roars and practices the 'Divine Gate Thirteen Swords (神門十三劍)' swordplay with immense fury and hatred.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdW7sd8Hun
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq3llAzZGq
Suddenly, he hears the sound of steps. He turns round and sees an old man, who has long white hair and beard, and wears a brown gown. Zhang Yude had not seen him before on the Mt. and he does not look like a Kunlun student, so who could he be?1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8QpAKaRuf
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqxWK77s9p
"Who are you?", he politely asks the old man.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNMLmemvkX
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz2ZJx93S5
The man just laughs for a few second and then replies: "I am an elder of Wudang Sect."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeHdY3p9Nk
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4rTMgqHBs
"That's impossible! I've never seen you and neither teacher nor any other elder of Wudang ever mentioned anything about you."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZsGHN8Bt7
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchLltXgOm8
"Ai-ya! So, they forgot about me so quickly?". The old man remains silent for a few seconds before speaking again: "Your teacher must have told you of a man called Sun Shiyi, right?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPh9KB0toT
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡote1mFQ0hm
"Eee......yes, I remember teacher mentioning that man once. He said that Sun Shiyi was his brother in arms. He fell in love with a young and very beautiful woman and she liked him too. But because the woman was the daughter of a high ranking Official and she was very beautiful, she became a concubine of the Taichang Emperor, father of the current Emperor, Emperor Chongzhen. Sun Shiyi went crazy when he learned this and no one knows what happened to him."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs24FU3mdXi
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UrKoHZP08
"Good. It seems that my brother in arms had not forgotten about me."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡardrYoLjHV
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfENhJRFHNM
Zhang Yude laughs. "Do you expect me to believe that you are Sun Shiyi?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIEPUOVRws
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm3FzmrwNv
"Let us have a fight and I will prove to you that I really am Sun Shiyi!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcpwnqxEla
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPd9Bjc7u5
"I accept your challenge!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlQAj5JXXm
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmwkTgiEUE
The old man pulls out a narrow, double-edged Jian Sword with a thin blade and a tassel attached to the pommel. He sweeps his sword across with almost superhuman speed. Zhang Yude ducks down to avoid it, then counters with a thrust from his sword. The two fight round and round. Zhang Yude, seeing that his opponent's swordsmanship is even greater than that of his own master and knowing that he will never be able to defeat him, concentrates instead on trying to tire the old man out. But his Internal Energy is profound and, as time passes, Zhang Yude cannot discern the slightest slowing of the old man's actions. Instead, his sword seems to whirl and dance with ever increasing speed. Finally, the old man's sword clashes with Zhang Yude's sword, a 'clang' is heard and Zhang Yude's sword snaps clean in two.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs6XGZKMeW
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXKzmGEOGp
"Now, do you believe me?", the old man asks.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCMunSLZ2n
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIJsUcMGWG
Zhang Yude bows before him and says: "Greetings Elder Sun! Forgive me for my rudeness."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdEW3CE2Df
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJkBC39KSU
"My brother in arms was muddle-headed."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMbCpiGh8t
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLCNsLNlK8
"Why do you say so?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT9BCJNIwo
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFi6rdoqbH
"Because instead of making Chief of Wudang a great and able man like you, he gave the 'Seal of Command' to that idiot Yue Li."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvdj1jtgY3
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvo7bPym3O
Zhang Yude cannot hide his happiness upon hearing those words. Maybe Elder Sun can help him become Chief, he thinks.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7u26xilYM
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGgrlRkvXc
"Elder Sun, I need your help. Yue Li refuses to accept the merge of all Orthodox Sects and this will prevent the Martial Arts World from having peace and stability. Also, evil people like Lung Chang will be able to continue their massacres. Please, change his mind."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z8oxo7vq5
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu3F48oUBV
"You are right. But Yue Li will never listen to anyone. There is only one way to make sure that the Orthodox Sects merge."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJpVqqOvoQ
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4lNSxziTA
"What is it?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yvlIZ33jr
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlF9XfqWp7
"To kill Yue Li!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZQ3lrg2zR
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAV7jOW08e
"Kill....kill....kill Yue Li?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bAN76S0nK
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5OB7aPh0l
"It is the only way to make sure that the Martial Arts World has peace."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdhWZ2GH5B
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXAYf3D7kA
"But....how should I kill him? My skills are not good enough."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs42abg0Kiz
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76vyrDZpjO
"Take this."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvA9ypDgZM
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKAF4xxRtC
Sun Shiyi gives Zhang Yude a red pill and a jar of wine.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSN7b2Juen
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rje88Vk3m
"I...will poison him?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrTNniRmzy
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzV7zfdvkB
"Yes. Before you go and see Yue Li, swallow the red pill. This will make sure that the poison will not affect you."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk26x9ur90K
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRALv4L7s4
"Thanks for your help, Elder."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprbW2gnmxF
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlhy7V2PYM
Zhang Yude swallows the pill and runs back to the Kunlun School. He knocks the door of Yue Li's room. Yue Li opens the door and warmly says: "Brother Yude, come inside."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJE4EfO8MA
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLNKJ5rYvt
When Zhang Yude enters the room, he bows before Yue Li and, with tears in his eyes, shouts: "I have unjustly insulted you! Chief, please punish me!!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEleuSgWue
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIabV2JUyR
Yue Li, smiling, helps Zhang Yude gets up and says "Since you know your mistake, there is no need for me to punish you."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaXD2toZdt
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwkR4RWpVR
"Chief, I have bought some wine. Would you like to taste it?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNS43JrZyE
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtXdHIMINC
Zhang Yude takes a large gulp from the jar with the wine and remarks "Excellent wine!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DgXcGNfiS
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcs58KqqGe
Yue Li, who likes good wine, takes the jar from Zhang Yude's hands and drinks it.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygxfjYXXl1
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe2Y2ByU2Q
"Quite good wine indeed!", he says. He had more than a week to drink wine.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZR8yMPU0D
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmktuj6f1l2
Suddenly, Yue Li feels a pain on his stomach and vomits blood. As Yue Li shouts in pain, Zhang Yude pulls out a dagger and stabs thrice Yue Li's chest before Yue Li kicks him on the stomach. Yue Li tries to grab his sword but, as he is dizzy, he he is not able to do so. Instead, he moves left and right and cannot stand on his feet. Zhang Yude, fearing that his assassination attempt will fail and that he will surely die, attacks again, this time with immense hatred and stabs more than twenty times Yue Li's stomach to make sure that he is dead. He then calms down and realizes that his arch-enemy is finally dead and laughs hysterically.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjYJ0xPzGb
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLXSE7UaFc
As he is laughing, he realizes something that makes him desperate again: the other students of Wudang will inquire how Yue Li died. Even without close examination, just by looking at Yue Li's body, one can come to the concussion that he got stabbed to death. And of course, sooner or later, Zhang Yude will be suspected. So, he must find a way to prevent this. He thinks for a few seconds, and then an idea comes: he will throw one of the candles of the room onto the floor, starting a fire. Everyone will think that the fire was started by an accident and that Yue Li did not manage to get out in time and got burned alive. So, he lights a candle and throws it on the wooden floor of the room. Zhang Yude runs out and soon the flames engulf much of the Western Section of the Kunlun School. Only after two hours are the pugilists of the Orthodox Sects able to put down the fire. In total, twenty people were burned to death.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweQLqZXCCL
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau9oqnpP3g
The next day, the Wudang students find the burned body of their Chief, which is barely recognizable, and they bury him. They then elect Zhang Yude as the new Chief of Wudang. Four days later, the Chiefs of the Orthodox Sects meet again on the Great Hall of the Kunlun School.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CZ84k4uGA
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdGrIuBhoH
"Honorable Chiefs!", Piao Zhen says. "I hope that in those five days you had, you have thought about my proposal. So, do you agree to the merger?"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoNrzfIyjF
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1BDyY0Z5h
"I agree!", Zhang Yude shouts.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb8baG0y9c
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAfu2gje9P
"Me too!", Abbess Meijoui of Emei Sect adds.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gxiS0Qr40
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2LUiheQni
"I also agree.", Abbot Yongyu says, sighing. He knows that it is of no use to try and oppose alone the merger.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q3GhVneXV
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoWiEUPBGV
All other Chiefs follow suit. Piao Zhen cannot hide how relieved he is that everyone agreed. "So, how shall we choose the leader of the Alliance?", he asks. "I say that we hold a Martial Arts Tournament in four months and the victor shall become leader of the Orthodox Sects. Also, I propose that we hold the tournament on Shaolin, if Abbot Yongyu agrees, as all Martial Arts originate from Shaolin."1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SyfC7i7RG
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiKhLl5Vcw
"It will be my honor to host such an event.", Abbot Yongyu replies.1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6Q2ZJmOmE
1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P8WUDxeHL
The other Chiefs agree to Piao Zhen's proposal. So, the meeting of the Orthodox Martial Arts Sects on Mt. Kunlun ends with a historic decision: for the first time in the history of the Martial Arts World, all Orthodox Sects shall merge. The same night, Sun Shiyi gallops away from Mt. Kunlun with his strong and tall white horse. "My dear Shunu, I will take revenge for you!", he thinks. "That bastard Taichang Emperor snatched you away from me. He made you his concubine and forced you to sleep with him and give him a son, the current Emperor Chongzhen. But your heart remained loyal to me. So, he had you executed. But now, I shall take revenge for you. Although Taichang died before I could take revenge, I shall avenge you by bringing down the Ming Empire. In four months, the Martial Arts World will come under Manchu control. And then, the Manchu Armies shall conquer the Ming Empire and I will have avenged you!!"1442Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtptlUSg3UW
