Yu LianZhou said, "E Mei founder Heroine Guo helped out our master in his youth. For this reason, he always told us not to offend E Mei Sect, for old times sake. When I realized those two people were E Mei disciples, I tried to retract my inner power, but was too late. I didn't mean to hurt them, but nonetheless disobeyed master's orders."

Yin SuSu said, "Thankfully, you pretended that they're Kun Lun Sect. So you didn't officially offend the E Mei Sect."

The boat they were on kept sailing during this whole time. By now it's long gone. The six smaller boats have sunk. Its occupants all swam ashore. Yin SuSu said, "Are these also E Mei disciples?" Yu LianZhou whispered, "Most likely Lake Chao's Grain-Boat Clan." Yin SuSu looked at the five swords on the ground, and wanted to examine them. Yu LianZhou said, "Don't touch these weapons. If they have names on them, we'd have trouble claiming ignorance on the matter. Let's just leave now!" Yin SuSu nodded in agreement and said, "You're right." She grabbed WuJi's hand and walked towards the road.

After walking for a while, they saw three horses tied to a tree. WuJi yelled happily, "Horses! Horses!" WuJi had always wanted to ride a horse since coming to the mainland. But because they kept traveling by boat, he never got the chance.

When the four got close to, they saw a note stuck to the tree. Zhang CuiShan took down the note, and read it, "Please accept these three horses, as an apology for inconveniencing you." The characters were written in charcoal, very delicately, in a lady's writing style. Yin SuSu said with a smile, "Looks like this E Mei lady wrote to Heroes of Wu Dang using a charcoal pencil for drawing eyebrows." Yu LianZhou said, "Well, they're certainly quite courteous." He untied the horses, and everyone got on. WuJi sat in front of his mother, feeling very excited.

Zhang CuiShan said, "Since everyone knows our movement anyway, we might as well ride horses. Yu LianZhou said, "You're right. There will surely be more troubles ahead. If we must fight, don't be too ruthless." He still felt quite uneasy for hurting those two E Mei disciples.

Yin SuSu felt ashamed, thought, "Second brother-in-law only used a bit too much force. He didn't even intend to hurt anyone. They only sustained injuries because they wouldn't let go of the swords. We really shouldn't let second brother-in-law get further involved in this matter." So she said, "Second brother-in-law. These people came for my family. If we encounter any trouble, my husband and I will take care of it. If we can't handle them, then we can ask you for help." Yu LianZhou said, "Do not treat me as an outsider. After all, we brothers live together and die together. Your problems are my problems."

Yin SuSu stopped discussing this matter, and asked, "If they knew you were with us, why did E Mei just send some younger disciples to block our way?" Yu LianZhou said, "They probably didn't have time to gather the more powerful disciples."

Zhang CuiShan figured these disciples came because of Xie Xun, and said, "Looks like my sworn brother is also an enemy of E Mei. How come he never told me back on Fire-Ice Island?"

Yu LianZhou sighed, and said, "E Mei's a very strict sect, with mostly female disciples. Master Mie Jue doesn't let her female disciples wander around freely. So even we used to find it strange that E Mei would go against the Heavenly Eagle Sect. However, we recently found out the reason. One night, 'Golden Hammer' Fang Ping, Old Hero Fang of the Kai Feng City in He Nan province, was killed. The words 'The murderer is Lightning Fist of the Originating Formation: Cheng Kun' were written on the wall." Yin SuSu asked, "Is Fang Ping a member of the E Mei Sect?" Yu LianZhou said, "No. But Master Mie Jue's surname was 'Fang' before becoming a nun. That Old Hero Fang was Master Mie Jue's brother." Both Zhang CuiShan and Yin SuSu gasped at the same time.

WuJi suddenly asked, "Second uncle, is that Old Hero Fang a good person or a bad person?" Yu LianZhou said, "I heard that he was a recluse, and spends his days farming and reading. So he should be a good person." WuJi said, "Oh, godfather really shouldn't be killing so recklessly." Yu LianZhou was overjoyed, reached out for WuJi's arms, and took him from Yin SuSu. He said, "Son, your second uncle's very happy for you, since you know to not kill recklessly. A person who dies cannot be resurrected. So even if your opponent is the most devious, vicious person in the world, you still shouldn't automatically kill him. Try giving people a chance to reform."

WuJi said, "Second uncle, can you do something for me?" Yu LianZhou asked, "What?" Wu Ji said, "If they really do find godfather, can you tell them not to kill him? His eyes are now blind, and can't beat these people." Yu LianZhou thought for a moment, then said, "I don't have the power to do this. But I myself will promise not to kill him." WuJi did not speak further, but tears came down his eyes.

The next day, they've arrived at a town. After sleeping for a while in an inn, they continued in the afternoon. Sometimes Yin SuSu and Zhang CuiShan would ride together, so WuJi could get a taste for riding alone. As a child, WuJi forgets his worries quickly. After riding alone for a while, he quickly forgot about Xie Xun's problems.

Following a day of riding, they almost reached the city of An Lu. Suddenly, ten or so merchants hurried past them. When they saw Yu LianZhou, one quickly shook his hand and yelled, "Turn round quickly! Mongolian soldiers are killing and pillaging ahead." Another said to Yin SuSu, "You are one brave lady. But you really shouldn't let the soldiers see you." Yu LianZhou asked, "How many soldiers?" One merchant said, "Ten-plus. All looked really mean." He quickly ran away as he spoke.

The Seven Heroes of Wu Dang hated cruel Mongolian soldiers more than anything else. Zhang SanFeng is very strict about combat. Unless it's absolutely necessary, his disciples should never get into fights. However, if the opponents are Mongolian soldiers acting viciously, then they have the go-ahead to kill. For this reason, if the seven heroes see large contingents of soldiers, they'll simply hide. But if they meet only a few soldiers, then they'd eliminate the soldiers. So when Yu and Zhang heard that there are only ten or so soldiers, they immediately galloped ahead.

After riding for another mile, they heard loud cries ahead. Zhang CuiShan went in front, and saw over ten soldiers holding spears and sabers, terrorizing a group of civilians. The ground is filled with blood, as seven or eight civilians were already dead on the ground. Only to see one soldier picking up a child of about three or four, and then kicked him into the air. When the child came down, another soldier kicked him up again, like kicking a bouncing ball. After a few kicks, the child's breathing stopped. Filled with rage, Zhang CuiShan flew off the horse. Before hitting the ground, his fist struck one of the soldiers, who instantly fell to the ground. At this time, another soldier came at him with a spear.

WuJi yelled, "Daddy, watch out!" Zhang CuiShan said, "Watch your dad beat up on Mongol soldiers." When the spear nearly reached him, Zhang CuiShan grabbed the spear tip, and pushed it backward into that soldier's chest. That soldier let out a loud scream, fell to the ground, seemingly dead.

Upon seeing Zhang CuiShan's actions, the other soldiers surrounded him. Yin SuSu got off the horse and quickly snatched one of the soldier's sabers. She immediately killed two soldiers with it. The other soldiers quickly realized that something's wrong, and began to run away. Yu LianZhou yelled, "Don't let them get away." He quickly went west to block four of the soldiers. Zhang CuiShan and Yin SuSu also split up to catch the remaining soldiers. All three knew that these soldiers' fighting abilities are very mediocre, not even WuJi's match. So they were comfortable leaving him alone.
