"No, no... Young Master Wen, you misunderstand," Jiang Muchan said. "I am by no means a person afraid of death. Not to mention that today, you and Mr. Xiao saved my life, and I should repay that; even just speaking of what Xiao Zhun has done, I am willing to contribute to stopping him... It's just... I worry whether, with my Martial Arts skills, I am fit to be one of the 'Seven Sword and Saber Masters'?"
Jiang Muchan's concern was indeed reasonable. The ordeal he had undergone being "taught a lesson" by Eunuch Wei just a few days ago was still fresh in his mind, and he had also crossed swords with Xiao Wuji... These two bouts made him acutely aware that, although his Sword Skill was uniquely brilliant, when faced with a true expert, his Inner Strength would undoubtedly become a major weakness.
