The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 243 Good News
When Wu Chengyu heard the name "Red Maiden" again, it was originally just a thought that came to mind. He never expected that Yan Chunyu would actually use "Red Maiden" as her title, which made it seem like she was deeply in love.

He couldn't help but curse himself as a scumbag, flirting and then running away. But he had no choice but to run away, otherwise he would really stay there and become a bandit king.

But now, upon hearing the Jin spies discussing their plot to deal with the rebel army, Wu Chengyu felt a surge of hatred, while secretly congratulating himself on his good fortune.

As the saying goes, "Do good deeds and don't worry about the future." But sometimes, only by doing good deeds can one have a future. If I hadn't agreed to help the Quanzhen Sect once, how would I have known about the Jin dogs' conspiracy?

Given the sinister nature of this so-called leader, if Yan Chunyu were truly in danger if he were to be infiltrated into the Imperial Guard by his subordinates.

The leader continued, "Number One, you did a good job this time. Only you really found a way to infiltrate the bandit army. I will remember your merit."

After your report tonight, do not contact us again. Maintain your identity. First, that junior leader needs to take you to their base in the Qinling Mountains. We've been searching for a long time without success. Once you're settled, we'll send you the exact address.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengyu roughly analyzed that this Number One had only made contact with that minor leader of the rebel army and had learned some information, but he had not yet obtained key information such as the rebel army base, nor had he officially joined the other side. Therefore, as long as he cut off contact with him in time, the crisis could be basically resolved, and it was not too late.

At this moment, the leader turned to look at another person: "Number Three, you heard what Number One said. It is very likely that the descendants of Yue Fei's army who did not submit to the king's rule in the Song Kingdom have completely lost their loyalty to the Song court after the Shi Miyuan incident, and their whereabouts are now unknown."

They have always maintained contact with those bandit groups, and the worst-case scenario is that the two sides will completely become one.

Once Number One arrives there, he will investigate the identities of those training the bandits, but we can't just wait like this.

You were a bandit in the Song Kingdom back then, so you are very familiar with all parts of the Song Kingdom. Have you been feeling very stifled staying here with me all these years?

Now I'm giving you a mission: take your two brothers and rebuild your strength. I'll assign you a cavalry unit, plus the men you've recruited over the years.

By next month at the latest, you will sneak back to Jiangnan, and on the surface, you will still be a whirlwind returning to the martial world, burning, killing, and looting for me. But I will give you a list and ask you to find out where the descendants of Yue Fei's army are hiding.

If you encounter any isolated members of Yue Fei's army, eliminate them to prevent future trouble.

Or perhaps these people won't all take their families with them; in that case, kill all their families as well.

Number three didn't say much, just nodded in agreement, but a cruel smile appeared on his face.

Wu Chengyu's expression was exactly the same as that of Number Three; he was smiling happily, yet cruelly. This was truly great news.

Since transmigrating to the present day, Wu Chengyu has settled most of the grudges and debts owed to his predecessor, fulfilling his obligations to his family and repaying the debt of gratitude for being raised by them.

The Black Wind Duo had long since died at his hands, and now only two things remained.

One of them is to return to Peach Blossom Island someday in the future and seek justice for his former aunt.

The only remaining matter is the bandit, Yi Gu Feng, seeking revenge for his father's death. However, this is the most difficult task because there are no clues or leads to be found.

It had long been suspected that the bandit "A Gust of Wind" was sent by the Jin Dynasty to sabotage the Song Dynasty. In fact, their hatred for the Wu family and Wu Chengyu ran deep. Wu Chengyu's father, Wu Zhengkang, died at their hands, and half of the Wu clan, especially the third branch of the Zheng generation, also died in the battle to suppress "A Gust of Wind." Wu Zhengliang's legs were crippled for a full five years.

However, that encirclement was disrupted by the sudden appearance of a master. The three bandits led by a gust of wind disappeared without a trace. All that was known was that they had retreated to the territory of the Jin Kingdom. Wu Chengyu had thought about revenge, but he really didn't know where those three guys were hiding.

Wu Chengyu now deeply understands the meaning of the saying, "I searched high and low without finding it, but it came to me effortlessly."

Who would have thought that a casual eavesdropping session today would actually lead to finding the real culprit, who was so close he could kill him at any moment? He immediately became impatient.

However, he forcibly suppressed his murderous intent. There was only one here, and he didn't know where the other two were. Wu Chengyu didn't want to rely on torture; he wanted to follow this person to find the other two first.

Now that the hope of revenge is right in front of us, we must remain calm and composed. There seem to be quite a few things to do tonight, and we can't let any of them slip by.

The leader then said to the third person, "You and the first person have been with me for many years and are already capable of handling things on your own. After you leave today, you can decide how to act on your own. I only care about the results, not the process. Don't bother me unless it's important."

He looked at the third person and asked, "Number Four, how are the arrangements at the Great Ci'en Temple going?"

Number Four bowed and replied, "Rest assured, leader. The meditation rooms at the Great Ci'en Temple are relaxed on the outside but tight on the inside. Not only are there experts waiting with their weapons at their sides, but there are also archers lying in ambush on the outside. In addition, I have some other arrangements. Even if the Seven Masters of Quanzhen come together, they will not be able to gain the upper hand."

The leader nodded: "How is Chief Qiu? He arrived late that day, otherwise Qiu Chuji wouldn't have escaped either. Has he shown any unusual behavior?"

"Reporting to the chief, after Qiu Qianren and his men moved into the meditation room, they did not come out. They just asked for some good wine and food. However, several of his men have been causing trouble all over Chang'an City these past few days, and I have had to clean up the mess for him."

"This Qiu Qianren can be considered a grandmaster of his generation. He is the strongest among the experts we can use. Since that's the case, we can only tolerate him for now. If these martial arts experts among the Han people cannot be used by us, we must find a way to eliminate them. Observe him carefully and see if there are any weaknesses that we can exploit."

After the leader finished speaking, he tilted his head and pondered for a moment, then shook his head again.

"I painstakingly planned and finally sent Wanyan Qing to the Quanzhen Sect. Who would have thought that it would be exposed so inexplicably? To this day, I still can't figure out where the problem lies. The Quanzhen Sect sent back the bodies of the two brothers, which is also a warning to me."

But I am not one to suffer a loss without fighting back. I guessed that Qiu Chuji was reckless, so I revealed my intentions and set a trap to lure him here. My original intention was not to kill him. When Emperor Shizong was in power, he greatly admired Qiu Chuji. I just wanted to capture him, negotiate with the Quanzhen Sect, and deflate their arrogance.

Although Qiu Chuji escaped, he was seriously injured, so I can say that I have achieved my goal.

We cannot afford to turn against the Quanzhen Sect right now. We thought this matter would end here, and that the Quanzhen Sect would not dare to really retaliate against us.

But who knew that after this Chief Qiu arrived, he insisted that we find a way to lure the Seven Masters of Quanzhen over, wanting to eliminate them as soon as possible.

He kept emphasizing the Innate Skill. I hadn't paid much attention to this skill before. Do you think it's really as powerful as Qiu Qianren claims?
