The innkeeper and the rest of the workers returned to the main dining room, and they encountered a completely different scene.
The innkeeper said, "Thank you very much for saving us. If you need any help, please let us know."
Bazar Bataar, "Bring us some food."
Bazar Batu added, "You can also bring food to that table."
Bazar Bataar asked, "What is your intention?"
Bazar Batu, "Ge, have you noticed that the two Taoists there remained so calm after everything happened. If we want to save Lok ge's sister, juniors and seniors, We will need more than the five of us." He stood up and walked, but Bazar Bataar took his hand. "Da ge, it will be fine."
Bazar Batu walked to the two Taoists and said, "This humble senior. May I know your name?"
The old Taoist said, "This old Taoist is just a wandering mountain Taoist with no name."
Bazar Batu, "You may have heard that our friends are being captured. Would you be kind enough to go help our friend with us."
The old Taoist then said, "I am old, I may bring you only burdens, but he can go with you." He looked at the young Taoist. "Yongzheng, you can go with them. I will wait two days. If you come back and don't see me here, it means I am heading home."
Yongzheng, "I understand."
Bazar Batu said, "My name is Bazar Batu. What is your name?"
The young Taoist said, "Yongzheng."
Bazar Batu asked, "Just Yongzheng? No surname, or nickname?"
Yongzheng said, "No, just Yongzheng."
Bazar Batu smiled and said, "Yongzheng-xiong, thank you for your help."
When the rain stopped, the four men and two women left the old taoist under the care of the innkeeper and the workers. They heading toward the pagoda. When the four men and the two women arrived at the river cliff, they saw a tall three stories pagoda built next to a river cliff. No one seems to guard the three-stories tower.
Bazar Batu scoffed, "Hmp...that liar fake innkeeper said it is a seven stories pagoda... it is only three."
Kuo Lok, "The danger is the same wether it's a seven or three-stories pagoda."
Bazar Bataar looked at Kou Lok and asked, "After knowing his intolerant attitude, do you still want to marry him?"
Kuo Lok, "I don't mind."
Bazar Batu, "Let's go and see that pagoda."
The four men and two women walked to the door. Kuo Lok pushed one side of the door open, and he saw some young disciples from different sects and clans sitting helpless on the floor. He spotted Nun Chingmei.
Kuo Lok looked around, but he did not see Kuo Changchang. Then he spotted Kuo Wenqian in Liu Hung's arm.
Kuo Lok quickly walked to his sister, "Jiejie..."
Kuo Wenqian looked, "Lok'er. We can't move."
Bazar Batu said, "Must be that lighter than a feather poison."
Bazar Batu looked at the other corner, and he saw the familiar white-haired man. He rushed over quickly and turned the white-haired man around. It was Ma Jinggou. Bazar Batu's eyes widened. He said softly, "Ma ge...why are you here?"
Zhu Suyin who sat next to Ma Jinggou said, "He is willing to come here because he wants to die."
Bazar Batu stare at the unknown woman and ask, "Who are you?"
Zhu Suyin look up at Bazar Batu and replied, "Zhu Suyin."
Bazar Batu, "Why are you with him?"
Zhu Suyin, "I followed him, so I could kill Mu Dishi."
Watching Ma Jingguo's situation made Bazar Batu very angry. The first time he saw Ma Jingguo was when he and Mu Dishi had a argument. Ma Jingguo was in despair when Mu Dishi left him, but Bazar Batu somehow deceived Ma Jingguo to stood up again. Now, Ma Jingguo is worse than the last time he saw Ma Jingguo in Sword Village. Ma Jingguo no longer have the will to continue to live.
Bazar Batu grabbed Ma Jingguo's front robe and said, "Ma ge, you told me that you love your wife very much."
Ma Jingguo did not look at Bazar Batu and simply said, "He left, and this time is for good." He removed Bazar Batu's hand from his collar. "How can I fight against Wang Biming? I don't have the skills like Wang Biming. The most important thing is...Wang Biming will always come first."
Bazar Batu once again grabbed Ma Jingguo's front collar, "It doesn't matter if he is first and you are not. If you don't have the fighting skills to defeat him, then you have to work harder and bring back what belongs to you." He breathed heavily. "If you give up easily, are you really worthy standing next to him?" He looked at Ma Jingguo firmly. "You know him best. If you give up now, it turns out that he was deceived by Wang Biming, would you hate yourself? If it turns out that he has forgotten Wang Biming, and now there is only you in his heart, and if he knows that you behave like this, how disappointed he would be."
Ma Jingguo sighed, "You are always smarter."
Bazar Batu, "I believe your wife only loves you."
Ma Jingguo, "How are you so sure?"
"Because he keeps his promises, I am good at judging people," Bazar Batu said and he loosened the grip of Ma Jingguo's collar. "You are still a disciple of Jinfeng sect, so act like one because there are many juniors here who needed your help."
Ma Jingguo sighed and said, "You are correct. I am their senior, I should act like one." He patted Bazar Batu on the right shoulder. "Thank you. If my little sister is still alive, she may be about the same age as you."
Bazar Batu, "I thought of you as a brother."
Ma Jingguo smiled, "This brother of yours will promise that for now on, he will work harder and take back what belongs to him."
Bazar Batu said with a smile, "Ma ge, let us get out of here, we will fight the Yueguang sect together and bring your wife back."
Ma Jingguo smiled, "Alright."
Suddenly, many arrows flew inside the pagoda, hitting the bag hanging from the ceiling from various directions. The oil fell from the large leather bag onto people like rain. The weak are saturated with oil. The people inside rushed to the front door, but the lock rods slid down from the ceiling, blocking their exit. Standing in front of them were Miao Mingzhu and her twenty subordinates. Their arrows were lit on fire and aimed at the group of poisoned people.
Miao Mingzhu smiled and said, "Kuo Lok of Jinfeng sect, we have met again. Our fate has always made us meet. We are truly made for each other," she said with a smile and then she looked at Ma Jingguo. "Did you say you were going to lie there waiting for death? I didn't expect you to stand here." She looked at her subordinates. "Kill them."
The twenty subordinates of Miao Mingyzhu fired their arrows at the pagoda and the place quickly caught on fire. Yongzheng quickly removed his robe and hit some arrows, redirecting them to Miao Mingzhu and her twenty subordinates. Yongzheng then quickly slammed one of the door panel closed. He flew over another door panel, knocked some incoming arrows back outside, and then closed the second door panel. The people inside began to panic and tried to stay away from the fire, but because they were immersed in oil, the fire spread quickly. Some people caught fire, some rushed up the stairs to the second floor, while others tried to take off the top clothes.
Miao Mingzhu shouted, "Open that door now."
Kuo Lok stood by the side window. He collected all of his inner energy in his body to the palm of his hand, and sending out energy waves on the window. Ma Jingguo got out first, followed Bazar Bataar, and his two wives. The four people headed straight to fight Miao Mingzhu and her subordinates.
Kuo Lok and Yongzheng helped the injured people out one by one. Bazar Batu and Kou Lok were the last two to leave. When Kuo Lok was about to push Bazar Batu out of the window, a burning beam fell just above Bazar Batu. Kuo Lok hit the falling beam with heavenly dragon palm strike, and threw the burning beam away from Bazar Batu.
The burned pagoda began to collapse. The collapsing pagoda tilted to one side where the people were standing and slowly falling on to them.
Ma Jingguo shouted, "Run away."
The people began to flee, but there was no other wayto run to other than jump off the cliff into the rushing waves. While people were still deciding whether to stay or jump, a series of arrows shot at them. The people have no choice but to jump into the water.
Ma Jingguo, Bazar Bataar and his two wives broke away from Miao Mingzhu and her subordinates.
Miao Mingzhu said angrily, "Shot every single arrow at them."
The twenty subordinates began to shoot down arrows into the river. When hundreds of arrows were shot at them, the people were pushed away by the river currents. Some unfortunate people were killed by arrows, and some fell to theirs death when they landed on rocks.
Seeing the arrows flying rushing passes him on his right and left, Kuo Lok dragged a deceased person to block the arrow from hitting Bazar Batu. When he was about to pull Bazar Batu away, he saw Yong Caixia nailed to the falling gravel. He pulled Bazar Batu towards Yong Caixia, and they started helping her.
Yong Caixia run out of air, so she fainted and Kuo Lok blew more air into her mouth, and he shook her violently to help her regain consciousness. She slowly opened her eyes. Kuo Lok then saw a wave of arrows heading directly towards Bazar Batu. Kuo Lok hit Bazar Batu gently and the river currents dragged Bazar Batu away from him. Kui Lon swam back to Yong Caixia who was pinned at her leg, grab her by the collar and to swim to the surface.
