Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 234 - 146: Retaining a Guest_2Chapter 234: Chapter 146: Retaining a Guest_2
Only when he reached the fat man did he discover that the poison inside the fat man’s body didn’t seem to affect him much. In fact, he was the least poisoned among everyone.
Even the strike from the leader of the Qingshe Alliance didn’t seem to result in much injury now.
The reason he is unconscious… it would be more accurate to say he’s sleeping, rather than being unconscious.
“This person…”
Su Mo didn’t know what to say for a while and could only click his tongue in wonder.
After this series of actions, all the people present could barely get up.
They repeatedly thanked Su Mo.
“Alright everyone, for now, run your Qi to resist the poison attacking your heart.”
After instructing them, Su Mo finally let out a sigh of relief.
He lifted his gaze to look at the melee in the midst of chaos.
Tonight, ever since he sensed something odd about the leader of the Qingshe Alliance, he knew it was a good opportunity.
As for what exactly the Mandarin Duck List was involved with, he still had no clue up to this point.
If it were any other day, not understanding wouldn’t really matter, but now, with the recent example of the Heavenly Gate Escort Agency and the critical role of Yang Yizhi, he really couldn’t afford to ignore it.
At the very least, he had to find out who was after this item.
Previously, those people always hid in the shadows, elusive and intangible. Now that they’ve revealed themselves, it’s the perfect opportunity to grab a ’tongue’ to interrogate.
But extracting information through coercion can sometimes yield uncertain results.
The truth and lies may not willingly be revealed by the opponent.
However, when the opponent is smug and complacent, they might inadvertently speak some truths. Combine these inadvertent truths with other information, and you get a much more accurate answer.
This is also one of the reasons why Su Mo pretended to be poisoned and quietly waited.
Originally, the moment Su Mo planned to make a move was when the leader of the Qingshe Alliance attempted to assassinate him.
With the element of surprise and considering the vast difference in martial arts prowess, the opponent would have had no chance of escaping Su Mo’s grasp.
The sudden intervention of the fat man was something neither Su Mo nor Yang Xiaoyun had anticipated.
Yet, it was precisely because of this minor change that Su Mo noticed the concealed presence of Li Siyun.
This was actually easy to understand.
Li Siyun had given the Mandarin Duck List to Su Mo to deliver to Yang Yizhi.
If this item was truly of great importance, how could he hand it over so readily?
With the potential for so many unforeseen events, it was natural for him to follow and see what would happen.
His purpose was nothing more than utilizing Su Mo in the open while remaining hidden himself, waiting for the opponent lurking in the shadows to emerge.
But to Su Mo, it seemed Li Siyun’s intentions were not merely about using him. Therefore, at the moment when the leader of the Qingshe Alliance made a move on Su Mo, Li Siyun couldn’t hide himself any longer and was actually prepared to step in to save him.
Thus, after the fat man fell, the second one to ’step in to save’ became Li Siyun.
Up to this point, both parties involved with the Mandarin Duck List had appeared before Su Mo.
This chaotic situation was finally becoming clear in Su Mo’s eyes.
“Xiao Mo… what should we do now?”
Yang Xiaoyun had already assembled the Dragon Abyss Spear by this time.
Su Mo smiled and said: “Since Lord Li possesses profound divine skills, let’s just observe the enemy’s tactics for now.”
While watching, he couldn’t help but ponder.
Xu Lu once said there was an organization called the Three Extremes Sect.
Sanjue Powder is a particularly potent poison exclusive to this sect.
The leader of the Qingshe Alliance and these monks also mentioned the word ’Sect Leader’.
However, what exactly is this Three Extremes Sect, and which martial arts faction does it belong to, remained unclear at the moment.
And then, who is Li Siyun?
He had already known someone was targeting him as soon as the Golden Jade Cone was stolen.
What connection is there between the Golden Jade Cone and the Mandarin Duck List?
And could the group from the Heavenly Blade Sect of that day possibly be linked to the current events?
What exactly do these people want to do?
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, he suddenly heard the leading monk shout out:
“Everyone, get in!!!”
Whoosh whoosh!
The monks guarding outside the great hall rushed in one after another.
However, this also caught the attention of the Jiaolonghui Water Bandits, who realized there was a change inside the hall and also wanted to rush in.
ZhuGe Changtian glanced and quickly roared:
“Fall back!!!!”
His voice could naturally be distinguished by the people of Jiaolonghui, and for a moment, they stopped in their tracks.
They heard ZhuGe Changtian’s angry voice shouting: “Surround this great hall, don’t let a single one of them escape!!!!”
“Yes!!!!”
Outside the great hall, the responding voices rolled like thunder.
Only then did ZhuGe Changtian relax.
If he had allowed the members of Jiaolonghui to surge into the great hall just now, chaos would have ensued, potentially giving these monks an opportunity to exploit.
Su Mo glanced at ZhuGe Changtian, cupped his hands, and said: “Master’s tactics are brilliant.”
“…Lord Su, please don’t jest. Tonight, we have fallen into a trap.”
ZhuGe Changtian chuckled bitterly: “If it weren’t for Lord Su who saw through their deceit and had reservations, we would truly have been doomed today.”
Su Mo neither agreed nor disagreed, simply lifting his gaze to observe the changes in the hall.
As the group of monks joined the fight, the old man surnamed Li suddenly seemed a bit more rushed.
His cane flew wildly, and although his stick technique was still extremely sharp, he started to be less poised in defense.
Seeing himself falling into a disadvantageous position while Su Mo still stood by, Li Siyun couldn’t help but shout:
“You brat, aren’t you going to help out?”
“Lord Li has divine skills that are unparalleled; I, on one hand, am inexperienced in the ways of Jianghu, ignorant of the wicked’s cruelty, and on the other hand, possess meager martial arts — mere tricks compared to others. I dare not step forward and embarrass myself, please forgive me for this.”
Upon hearing these words, Li Siyun spat out blood in frustration: “You, you brat, you’re nothing like your father, how could you bear such a grudge?”
