Leaving Pavilion Swallow
- In the third year of Kangyuan, the Yongning Gate nearly suffered complete annihilation. A red lotus, carved with a knife and stained with blood, was found on the right wrist of every corpse.
- Four years later, all the sects joined forces to wipe out the Xuanwu Gate. From then on, the Xuanwu Gate vanished without a trace.
- Twenty-three years later, the head of the Shangwu Gate died a violent death in the imperial prison. A blood-red lotus had suddenly appeared on his right wrist.
- What kind of organization is the Red Lotus Gang? They burn, kill, loot, and commit every imaginable crime! If they say they’ll wipe out a sect, they wipe it out; if they say they’ll kill someone, they kill them. The sects have joined forces for years, yet still haven’t managed to eradicate them. Now they’ve risen from the ashes again and teamed up with those Japanese pirates. They’re traitors to the Eight Wildernesses, rats everyone wants to beat to death! The Red Lotus Gang is hell, a hell for the living! Every last one of them is a demon!
- “Mushu has a saying about flowers: I don’t want to go to heaven with you. I just want to accompany you into hell.”
