Chen Qianyu and Tangtang are avid fans of the wuxia novel "Chivalric Tales of the Mystic Flow".

Guess what? Chen and I walked in and bam — there it was, Deeplung Gorge. Just like the book!

HA?! Chen Qianyu! You never mentioned "Chivalric Tales of the Mystic Flow" to Darkmask?

Ahem. Endmin, "Chivalric Tales of the Mystic Flow" is a wuxia novel. Everyone in Wuling City loves it.

And Deeplung Gorge is where the martial heroes have their final battle.

It's not just Wuling City, even my Stockade's all over this story. I'm a huge fan!

Oh, oh, I even scored a copy at the inn. Guess folks inside the painting got good taste too!

Here's the book. The binding's kinda unusual, though. Never seen this edition before.

This chapter's about two heroes having a life-or-death duel at Deeplung Gorge?

Yup. I was gonna head up and get a look-see myself.

But she insisted I bring you along.

Well, this is the proxy's home. If we go snooping around and something happens, I'd hate to cause trouble for HAS.

Endmin, since you're BFFs with Lady Si, can you...

Heehee... Lady Si went to so much trouble to treat you, there's no way she'd blame you.

Relax, we won't mess anything up! We just wanted you as our lucky plus-one for this view!

Endmin, I knew you would say yes!

Darkmask, you're a real one!

And I, the Supreme Chief, swear it's true. Deeplung Gorge is one fine-looking gem!

No need to think! It's the Supreme Chief's order!

And look, even if things go south, your girl's got your back!

Endmin, Deeplung Gorge isn't far from the inn. I think we could go and come back quickly...

Alright. But promise me — we'll just find Deeplung Gorge, take a quick look, and head back.

Aye, aye! Let's go!
