"Wind Thunder Escort Agency? If I remember correctly, they initially sided with the Nine Seals Sect.

If our Sunburst Gang is involved, with your reputation, it shouldn’t be difficult to protect an ordinary person.

Unless that person is very powerful or a high-ranking member of Wind Thunder Escort Agency?"

Bai Ziyue calmly said.

"She’s not a high-ranking member of Wind Thunder Escort Agency, nor is she strong. She’s only just started Inner Cultivation.

However, her identity is somewhat special."

Tang Zhanfei hesitated slightly.

"If you don’t explain the situation clearly, then forgive me for finding it difficult to help."

Bai Ziyue looked at Tang Zhanfei and said in a deep voice.

"Alright, there’s no point in hiding it.

She is my childhood sweetheart, but now her identity is one of the Seven Young Masters of Wujiang County, the wife of Little Wind Thunder Hand Wang Kai.

Wang Kai is the adopted son of Wang Donglai, the Leader of the Escort of Wind Thunder Escort Agency. He perished in the recent upheaval during the downfall of Wind Thunder Escort Agency.

Although she is alive, she is now imprisoned due to her status as Wang Kai’s widow."

Tang Zhanfei gave a self-deprecating laugh and said, "My position, though called an Inner Sect Disciple of the gang, is of no concern to anyone.

I tried everything but couldn’t get her released.

Out of desperation, I sought you out, Junior Brother.

With your current status as a Guardian of the Internal Affairs Hall, it’s much better than my jobless state.

If it doesn’t work, considering our Sunburst Gang’s usual ruthlessness towards enemies, she might be sent to a place of ill repute.

Since I have known her, I do not wish to see such a thing happen."

As he spoke, a decisive glint appeared in his eyes.

Bai Ziyue was taken aback, wondering if Tang Zhanfei would fight to the death because of this?

He didn’t expect his senior brother to be such a passionate person.

But, with his words, he recalled something.

The woman he mentioned should be the one who stood beside Wang Kai in the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion.

Indeed, she was gentle and beautiful, no wonder he couldn’t forget her.

"Where is she being held now?"

After a moment of silence, Bai Ziyue asked.

"She’s with a group of women and children, imprisoned in the Unity Courtyard of the Law Enforcement Hall."

Tang Zhanfei’s eyes lit up and he quickly responded.

"Law Enforcement Hall? Even I can’t say much there."

Bai Ziyue said, seeing the anxious look on Tang Zhanfei’s face, sighed, and continued, "But I know someone who has a wide range of contacts and might be able to help."

"Who?"

"Guardian Wang of the Water Hall."

"Him!"

Tang Zhanfei’s eyes lit up. He knew this person, the only son of Wang Lei, the Hall Master of the Water Hall. Though a Guardian, his strength had long qualified him to be a Hall Master. If he intervened, many obstacles would indeed be removed.

Excited, Tang Zhanfei quickly said, "Then let’s go quickly. With him stepping in, it will be much more stable."

"No rush. When seeking help, it’s customary to bring a gift."

Bai Ziyue said, unhurriedly heading towards the backyard.

...

"Should I call you Guardian Bai now?

I didn’t expect that in such a short time, your status has risen so significantly.

What surprised me more is that you came to find me? Have you finally decided to transfer that sword to me?"

At the gate of the Water Hall, Wang Peng looked at Bai Ziyue with a face full of surprise and asked with a smile.

"A sword is a means of survival, how can it be given away lightly?

I came to you this time because I have a matter that I need your help with."

Bai Ziyue shook his head and began.

"What if I refuse?"

"Although I can’t transfer the sword I carry, there’s another sword I think you’ll be very interested in."

"What sword?"

"Crack Saber!"

"What?"

Wang Peng’s previously calm expression couldn’t hold, and he asked in shock, "The personal weapon of the Battle Hall Master of the Nine Seals Sect, the Crack Saber?"

"If there’s no other sword by that name, then it should be this one."

Bai Ziyue said with a calm tone.

Next to him, Tang Zhanfei, long under Bai Ziyue’s instructions, didn’t dare interrupt and just silently held a sword box without speaking.

However, at this moment, he quickly opened the sword box, revealing the saber inside.

It was the saber from Yu Yong, who died at Bai Ziyue’s hands.

Pure white like silver, shimmering cold, with a few tiny nicks on the blade, but it did not detract from the fact that it was a famous sword.

"Battle Hall Master Yu Yong hasn’t been seen for more than half a month, and even the people of the Nine Seals Sect are tight-lipped, not daring to discuss it.

Many suspect he’s dead.

Now that the Crack Saber has appeared, it’s evident that the rumors of his death are true?"

"Did you kill him?"

Seeing the Crack Saber, Wang Peng’s pupils shrank, and he looked at Bai Ziyue with an expression of disbelief.

"Do you think, with my skills, I could kill a second-class expert?"

Bai Ziyue shrugged his shoulders and spoke calmly.

"Of course not."

Wang Peng shook his head vigorously, directly denying, then said, "However, Brother Bai being able to get the opponent’s saber indicates that your power is not insignificant.

But I don’t understand why you approached me for a matter you couldn’t handle yourself?"

"I have a friend who is imprisoned in the Law Enforcement Hall. I need Guard Wang to step in and negotiate."

Bai Ziyue glanced calmly at Tang Zhanfei beside him and then spoke.

"Deal!"

Wang Peng felt assured and immediately reached out and touched the Crack Saber.

"Three thousand taels of silver, delivered to my residence later will suffice."

Bai Ziyue grinned and looked at Wang Peng, saying, "Guard Wang wouldn’t think that rescuing one person would earn you a famous saber, right?"

"How could I? Even if Guardian Bai was willing, I couldn’t take advantage of you like that."

Wang Peng smiled somewhat sheepishly, but he still couldn’t help playing with the Crack Saber in his hand.

Wang Peng had no other hobbies in life but loved collecting various weapons.

The legendary saber such as the Crack Saber was rare even in his large collection. Now being able to obtain it, even at the cost of five thousand taels of silver and a bit of goodwill, he was willing.

Soon, the three of them headed towards the Unity Courtyard of the Law Enforcement Hall.

"Though the Law Enforcement Hall is supposed to oversee the gang’s discipline, it has long been thoroughly corrupted.

Ordinary people might try to maintain appearances, but if you find the right person, it’s actually not hard to have them turn a blind eye."

Wang Peng shook his head, saying.

Bai Ziyue remained silent.

He had always had some conflicts with the Law Enforcement Hall within the gang. He naturally knew that there were no truly impartial and just people there.

On the contrary, it was filled with those who would kill for personal gain.

"Then why did no one respond when I stepped forward, directly offering five hundred taels of silver?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhanfei immediately asked.

Five hundred taels were all he had.

If he hadn’t been desperate without any other options, he wouldn’t have approached Bai Ziyue.

"Firstly, it’s the identity of your friend.

Wang Kai is one of the Seven Young Masters of Wujiang County. As his widow, your friend would naturally garner special attention.

Secondly, she might be involved in other matters, or someone in the Law Enforcement Hall might want to extract more benefits from her.

Therefore, they rudely rejected your request.

The Wind Thunder Escort Agency is a powerful force with considerable wealth. It wouldn’t be surprising if someone wanted to exploit your friend.

Moreover, if your friend is beautiful, hehe... people in our Sunburst Gang are rarely righteous."

Wang Peng smiled, speaking with both seriousness and sarcasm.

"Wouldn’t Ya’er be in danger then?"

Tang Zhanfei grew anxious, quickening his steps.

"Judging from Guard Wang’s demeanor, he seems very confident?"

Bai Ziyue, following closely behind Tang Zhanfei, asked nonchalantly.

"I wouldn’t say I’m completely confident, but Guardian Zhuang in the Law Enforcement Hall has a close relationship with me, and many disciples within the hall would give me face.

If Brother Tang’s friend isn’t involved in major incidents or hasn’t caught the attention of higher-ups above the hall master in the Law Enforcement Hall, there shouldn’t be significant issues."

Wang Peng smiled confidently and walked leisurely behind the two.

The Unity Courtyard wasn’t remote, but it belonged to the Law Enforcement Hall, so few people usually stepped in.

Soon, Bai Ziyue and the other two stepped into the territory of the Law Enforcement Hall, quickly approaching the Unity Courtyard.

They immediately attracted the attention of two Law Enforcement Hall disciples standing at the entrance.

One of them seemed to recognize Tang Zhanfei and snorted coldly, saying, "You again? I already told you, unrelated people can’t approach. Do you really take my words as nonsense?"

"I am Wang Peng, Guardian of the Water Hall, and with me is Bai Ziyue, the newly-appointed Guardian of the Internal Affairs Hall.

Due to a misunderstanding, we have a friend who is imprisoned in Unity Hall and would like you two to let us take them out.

By the way, I have a good relationship with Guardian Zhuang. If he’s here, please call him out.

I believe he would be willing to help with this small favor."

Wang Peng stepped forward and spoke.

"Guardian Wang, Guardian Bai?"

The man was startled. Guardians held considerably high status, far above ordinary law enforcement disciples, even higher than stewards.

Moreover, he recognized Wang Peng, the only son of the Water Hall Master, who was powerful and a prominent figure in the sect.

With such a figure personally coming forward, he naturally didn’t dare to neglect. He quickly asked, "Who is Guardian Wang’s friend? If it’s not an important person, we can make the call to release them."

The other person, seeing Tang Zhanfei standing beside Bai Ziyue and the others, felt a shock and a tinge of panic appeared on his face.

He immediately grew anxious.

"Zhao Ya’er. Our friend’s name is Zhao Ya’er."

Wang Peng replied.

Immediately, the faces of the two Law Enforcement Hall disciples changed.
