Such methods were truly unheard of, and Master Ban could not help but be curious.

But after experiencing what happened with Yan Dan, he also understood that some things should not be investigated to the end, because doing so would only bring disaster upon himself.

However, if it involves the Mohist school or the Six-Fingered Black Knight, even if it means death, the matter must be thoroughly investigated.

We chatted casually for a few minutes.

Like Jing Ke, Master Ban knew that Jiang Chuan was nearby when Six-Fingered Black Knight died, but he did not blame Jiang Chuan for not saving Six-Fingered Black Knight.

Some might naively believe that Jiang Chuan's presence necessitates his rescue.

Master Ban was not so naive.

Jiang Chuan is not a disciple of the Mohist school and therefore has no such obligation.

Whether to save him or not is entirely up to Jiang Chuan's own choice. The Mo family has no right or reason to treat Jiang Chuan harshly.

"After what happened tonight, what are your plans now?"

Jiang Chuan looked at Master Ban and asked him about his plans for the future.

After tonight's events.

Many leaders of the Mohist school turned against Yan Dan, the nominal leader of the Mohist school, and Qin Wuyang also died.

Yan Dan's painstakingly planned assassination attempt on the King of Qin is temporarily impossible to carry out.

Or rather, it will definitely be implemented.

However, at this stage, the Mohists could no longer be an ally of Yan Dan.

Unless Yan Dan can kill all the leaders of the Mohist school.

As long as the leaders of the Mohist school die quietly, Yan Dan can easily blame the deaths of many Mohist leaders on the Yin-Yang School.

Anyway, the Yin-Yang School has already killed a Six-Fingered Black Knight, so it's not surprising that they might kill a few more (Li Le's) Mohist leaders.

After this incident, Yan Dan could use the pretext of avenging the many leaders of the Mohist school to completely control the Mohist school.

Because the disciples of the Mohist school did not know the truth; they only knew that Yan Dan was the Grand Master jointly elected by many leaders.

Jiang Chuan shared some of his speculations with Master Ban and the others.

Master Ban pondered for a moment and said, "Yan Dan wants to kill us and completely control the Mo family, but we cannot let him succeed."

"Sir, could you help us leave Ji City? Could you help us return to the Mechanical City?"

Master Ban had clearly placed his last hope on Jiang Chuan, which was not surprising, as people often try anything when they are desperate. For the Mohist school at that time, Jiang Chuan did indeed bring them a glimmer of hope.

Master Ban knew his request was abrupt, but in his view, Jiang Chuan was the only one who could help them escape Jicheng.

Chapter 352 The Things That Matter

Jiang Chuan looked at Master Ban.

Master Ban quickly replied, "I know my request is abrupt, but for the Mohists at present, you are the only one who can help us."

Yan Chunjun's transformation originated from the person before him; without a doubt, this person controlled Yan Chunjun.

At this moment, staying in Yan Chunjun's residence, they have temporarily escaped Yan Dan's pursuit.

But escaping Yan Dan's pursuit was never the outcome they desired.

What they wanted was to return to the Mo Family's Mechanized City and tell the truth to the many Mo Family disciples, so that the Mo Family disciples would no longer be deceived by Yan Dan. They wanted to expose Yan Dan's true colors.

But Master Ban also knew that Yan Dan had definitely thought of this as well.

Therefore, Yan Dan wanted to ambush them and cause them to perish completely in Ji City.

Master Ban naturally did not want Yan Dan to succeed.

We must return to the city of machines immediately.

Now is the best time.

Because Yan Dan was about to send an envoy to the Qin state, there was absolutely no way he could go to the Mechanical City.

If they wait until Yan Dan finishes dealing with this matter and goes to the Mo Family's Mechanical City first, even if they rush back, it will be too late.

Why should I help you?

After Master Ban finished speaking, Jiang Chuan asked him a question in return.

Master Ban said in a deep voice, "If you are willing to help the Mohist school overcome this crisis, you will be our Mohist school's friend forever. Of course, I know that this is just a verbal promise and you may not believe it. So, please name your price."

"Speaking of price, I am actually quite interested in something hidden in the Mo family," Jiang Chuan said casually.

Master Ban immediately showed a curious expression, "What is it?"

"The Illusionary Sound Box!"

As soon as Jiang Chuan spoke, Master Ban's expression changed slightly.

Hundreds of years ago, when the Yin-Yang School was at its peak, it suffered the most fatal blow from Mozi, the leader of the Mohist School. From then on, the Yin-Yang School never recovered, while the Mohist School, under the leadership of Mozi, continued to grow and eventually became one of the most prominent schools of thought in the world.

The main reason for the decline of the Yin-Yang School was the loss of its most precious treasure, the Illusionary Sound Box.

For hundreds of years, countless generations of the Yin-Yang School have searched for the Illusionary Sound Box. In the process, they have also developed some enmity with the Mohist School. Little did they know that there was an old grudge between the two schools, and the Yin-Yang School's most precious treasure was hidden in the Mohist School's mechanical city.

As the chief master of mechanical arts of the Mohist school, Master Ban's understanding of the Mohist school is, in some ways, even deeper than that of Yan Dan, the current Grand Master.

He hadn't expected that Jiang Chuan actually knew about the Illusionary Sound Box being hidden in the Mo Family's Mechanical City.

"Are you a member of the Yin-Yang school, sir?"

Master Ban's gaze hardened.

He couldn't help but make some guesses.

The death of Six-Fingered Black Knight was largely due to Dong Jun's earlier attack on him, which severely injured him. Jiang Chuan happened to witness the scene and said that he sensed Dong Jun's presence. However, the Mo family members had also witnessed Dong Jun's immense strength before.

Jiang Chuan was able to contend with Dong Jun without sustaining any injuries, most likely because he was a member of the Yin-Yang School.

In addition, Jiang Chuan's methods of manipulating Yan Chunjun were also extremely bizarre.

Such methods also exist within the Yin-Yang School.

Of course, this guess is still somewhat far-fetched.

However, Master Ban still really wanted to get the answer from Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not a member of the Yin Yang School."

"In fact, for some reason, I have a very deep grudge against the Yin-Yang School."

"I learned by chance that the Yin-Yang School's treasure, the Illusionary Sound Box, is hidden within the Mohist School. I want to know if, if this thing falls into my hands, I can use it to find the Yin-Yang School's weaknesses and vulnerabilities?"

Jiang Chuan spoke eloquently, explaining the situation to Master Ban.

Seeing that Master Ban's puzzled expression remained, Jiang Chuan added, revealing some of his origins, "...Shushan!"

Master Ban was very old and had seen a lot.

The disciples of the Mohist school are found all over the world.

Although Mount Shu is mysterious, Master Ban has still been heard of.

Legend has it that hidden in the mountains of Sichuan and Chongqing was a mysterious tribe that controlled dragons and snakes and was skilled in witchcraft.

Unexpectedly, the rumors were true; the person before them was actually from the mysterious Shu Mountain tribe.

After many thoughts flashed through my mind.

Master Ban finally agreed to Jiang Chuan's request.

The Illusionary Sound Box fell into the hands of the Mo family unintentionally.

For the Mohists, that thing itself had little value.

For many years, the Mo family has kept the Illusionary Sound Box, simply because they did not want it to fall into the hands of the Yin-Yang School.

This time, the Mohist school encountered an immense crisis.

If we can resolve this crisis, it doesn't matter if we lose the Illusionary Sound Box.

……

Jicheng is under martial law.

The city's defense forces searched everywhere, hoping to find the whereabouts of the Mo family members.

However, even after they turned Jicheng upside down, they still couldn't find the Mo family members.

When the news reached the Crown Prince's residence, Yan Dan, the Crown Prince of Yan, was extremely angry.

"How could it not be found?"

"They're clearly in the city!"

"Useless! They're all useless!"

Amidst her anger, Yan Dan also felt somewhat flustered.

He was very worried that the Mohist leaders had escaped from Ji City and returned to the Mechanical City.

Once they return to the city, I will lose everything.
