The Axemaster's Final RequestTo hell with the Nine Heavenly Thrones! That old bastard Ming is a beast in human skin! We caught him violating and killing a woman, and he twisted the truth and accused us instead! That animal Gu Lingran called us brothers, but all along he was Old Ming's lapdog! He slaughtered three of my brothers! ...If I, Peng Meng, survive the Transcension... I'll have my revenge! I'll have my revenge! I'LL HAVE MY REVENGE!!!
The Four Axes Rebellion: CalamityThose heretics have more backbone than I expected. Fourth Axe had eight teeth pulled and was put through torture time and again, yet he still refused to sign a confession. And Third Axe actually recanted the moment he was brought before the court! I went to all that trouble fabricating seven accounts of how they violated women, abducted people, looted and pillaged, committing every evil imaginable... and now it's all ruined! At this rate, I can forget about ever getting promoted!
The Four Axes Rebellion: ChaosSecond Axe was put on trial today, and he revealed quite the shocking scandal! Eleven years ago, Master Ming tried to violate and kill a woman, only for the Four Axes to catch him in the act. He fled in disgrace, and bad blood has festered between them ever since. Later, the Four Axes became acquainted with Master Gu. One moment they were drinking together, talking about Master Ming's filthy deeds. The next, Master Gu had seized them, and they were subjected to every manner of brutal torture. He told it all so vividly, haha! What a tale to hear!
The Four Axes Rebellion: ConfusionThe scouts report that Axemaster Peng Meng has holed up in a remote area and undergone a crude form of Transcension using abandoned equipment. He's said to be extremely dangerous. Could the captain really be right? Is this our retribution? But this world has never lacked for people who were wronged. Even if what he said was true, it won't save his life now... And what could possibly make things right?
Gu Lingran's Letter to Sect Leader MingTo the Honorable Sect Leader Ming, The Four Axes are bloodthirsty by nature and pose a grave threat to the Wulin! I propose sending them a letter claiming that I stole a secret manual of the righteous sects and am to be executed in three days, pleading with them to come to my rescue. Once they have rushed a hundred li through the night and are utterly exhausted, we can seize them in one fell swoop! If this plan succeeds, I shall have no regrets even if it costs me my life. I respectfully await your decision, Sect Leader. Lingran, Disciple of the Qingfeng Sect
Captain Wu's Final LetterTo the Nine Elders of the Mandate, When the Maskwalkers attacked, we should have devoted ourselves to resisting them with all our strength. Yet, instead, Master Gu abandoned the battle to escort Axemaster Peng Meng to Sect Leader Ming, hoping to claim credit and earn rewards! While we were hastily transporting the prison cart, Peng Meng broke free in the chaos and slaughtered over a dozen of my brothers! We would spare no sacrifice to eliminate the Maskwalkers. Yet after suffering such a disaster, how can my fallen brothers ever rest in peace? I humbly ask the Nine Elders to investigate this matter with clear judgment and punish those responsible for this grave mistake! Wu Chao
Strategist Xu Feng's Secret LetterTo Esteemed Master Gu, Yuyin of Kunlun is now missing, while discord has arisen between Huangxing and Moji. The forces under their command are already beginning to splinter! In my humble opinion, you should seize this opportunity and immediately escort the Four Axes to Sect Leader Ming. With such distinguished service to your name, who could possibly rival you? Yuyin's position would surely be yours! Xu Feng
Response from Sect Leader MingNephew Gu, You have always acted with decisiveness. I trust that you will handle the matter of the Four Axes with due care and uphold the dignity of the righteous path. Do not disappoint my expectations. Burn this letter after reading. Master of Sun Moon Hall
