Chapter 489: Chapter 230 Reunion_3

“This time, luck was on our side. We didn’t end up with severe exhaustion and injuries.

“Otherwise, without Little Situ by my side, and without Grandmaster’s capability, I’m afraid saving me would truly be an impossible task.”

Su Mo stood up and glanced at the Black Clothed Man: “You can take off the mask now.”

The Black Clothed Man looked up at Su Mo, sighed, and removed the black fabric from his face.

Revealing a face covered with scars.

Seeing this face, Su Mo was speechless for a long time:

“How much must these people hate you to disfigure your face like this?”

“It wasn’t them…”

The Black Clothed Man quietly said: “It was myself.”

“…”

Su Mo was stunned, then suddenly realized:

“Decisive choice!”

“Inflicted with the Five Ghosts Heavenly Demon Qi, yet I still didn’t want to die.

“I still have many things left undone…

“However, because of the Death Order, my face became the opportunity for many people.

“After being attacked by a group of Jianghu scoundrels from the Western Border, I knew…

“If I continued to wear Wan Cangxin’s face.

“I… would undoubtedly die!

“So, I had no choice but to destroy this face.

“If I wanted to live, I had to make sure no one could recognize… that I am Wan Cangxin!”

At this point, Wan Cangxin finally openly revealed his identity.

Su Mo casually gathered some firewood, lit it, and the fire illuminated the cave, gradually warming it.

“Since Little Situ mentioned that there is a special kind of Inner Strength in your spiritual platform, I started to suspect your identity.

“Wei Ziyi once told me that the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword emanates from the heart, emphasizing changes in the Mental Stage.

“If there are imperfections in the Mental Stage, one thought could lead to demonization.

“From this, it is evident that this martial arts is related to the heart.

“And the martial arts I know that are related to the heart, there are only two…

“One is Liu Suifeng’s Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword from Yuliu Manor.

“The other is Elder Tianquan’s Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword.

“That’s why I started to have some doubts about your identity.”

Su Mo stared at the fire, speaking softly: “Especially after your wounds healed and you looked as innocent as a newborn child, it made me think about it more. But back then… I still couldn’t be sure.”

“Was it from Lengyue Palace that you confirmed I was Wan Cangxin?”

Wan Cangxin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Su Mo nodded: “Because that day, there was a change in your eyes. What happened on that day?”

He then looked at Wan Cangxin:

“Liu Suifeng challenged the Third Palace Master using the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword.

“Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword, probing the heart’s door.

“If… you really are Wan Cangxin, because of practicing the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword, cleared your heart of dust and forgot your past.

“Then this probing of the heart’s door, if it reminded you of something, wouldn’t that make sense?”

At this, Wan Cangxin couldn’t help but sigh:

“That was an opportunity I never anticipated.

“I was at the brink of death on the spiritual platform, purely by coincidence.

“If Hu Sandao hadn’t saved me, if I hadn’t later met you and Little Situ.

“If it wasn’t for your righteousness.

“Willing to spend your effort and Inner Strength for someone of unknown origins.

“I would have been dead long ago.

“That day, in front of Lengyue Palace, on Wangyue Platform, Liu Suifeng challenged the Third Palace Master.

“Because my mental stage was clear, I subconsciously imitated Liu Suifeng’s Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword.

“But because the sword moves touched me, probing the heart’s door.

“That’s when I remembered my past.

“And among these, it is also because Liu Suifeng understood another sword move.

“Otherwise, relying on his first sword move, although I barely remembered some things, it still wasn’t enough.

“Only when the second sword move was executed did I suddenly realize and rediscovered my true self.

“Speaking of it, it was truly extremely lucky.”

This is also why, earlier tonight in that courtyard, even though he was filled with killing intent and even used the strongest move of the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword wanting to kill the fake Wan Cangxin on the spot.

But when Su Mo stood in front of him, he still retracted most of his full power.

The injuries on his body were mostly internal injuries sustained at that time.

However… no matter what he intended to do, he did not want to harm Su Mo in the slightest.

This had nothing to do with the strength of the martial arts, but simply because, he could not repay kindness with ingratitude.

Su Mo smiled: “Maybe this is fate, heaven has not forsaken you, Wan Cangxin!”

However, there was not much joy in Wan Cangxin’s eyes.

He just said softly: “Maybe it’s because, heaven knows, I still have sins to repay, so… it does not permit me to die.

“Thus, it arranged one accident after another, allowing me to gain a new life at the brink of death, to repay my sins.”

Hearing this, Su Mo’s eyebrows slightly raised:

“Sins?”

“To be honest, I…”

Just as Wan Cangxin was about to speak, Su Mo suddenly furrowed his brows.

He raised his hand to stop Wan Cangxin from speaking further, then swiftly waved his hand and snuffed out the fire.

In the silence, Wan Cangxin also heard hurried footsteps approaching.

In just a moment, they had already reached the entrance of the cave.

Judging from the footsteps, there were quite a few people.

Yet among them, there were also faint creaking sounds, it was unclear where they came from.

The two of them remained silent, just observing, and saw several figures blink into the cave entrance.

It was four maidens, carrying a soft sedan.

The creaking noise was from the slight sounds emitted by the sedan as it shook.

Su Mo and Wan Cangxin were momentarily stunned.

They hadn’t expected to encounter Little Situ here.

Just as they were about to reveal themselves, they heard one of the maidens say:

“Young master, for now, let’s take refuge here briefly.”

“Four sisters, stop worrying about me.

“Leave me here and save yourselves.”

Little Situ’s voice was not very good, as if enduring to the utmost.

“No way!”

The four maidens said in unison.

“But now, with the Chasing Army still behind us, and me… in this state…

“I have no chance of recovery.

“Don’t waste your lives for me.”
