Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 490 - 231 Situ in DangerChapter 490: Chapter 231 Situ in Danger
Su Mo and Wan Cangxin couldn’t help but exchange a glance upon hearing this.
At the Wangyue Platform of Lengyue Palace, after the battle between Liu Suifeng and the Third Palace Master, Little Situ separated from them.
Intending to experience the charm of Jianghu on his own.
But who knew what he had encountered?
His words seemed to suggest that he had reached the end of his road?
With this thought in mind, Su Mo decided to fully release his breath.
Those four maidens, and even Little Situ, were by no means mediocre. They instantly sensed the presence of someone else in this cave!?
“Who’s there?”
“Come out!”
The four maidens drew their swords and shouted sternly.
Su Mo coughed and stepped forward with Wan Cangxin:
“It’s me.”
“Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort!?”
The expressions of the four maidens changed instantly.
But the look Su Mo saw on their faces was quite odd; not all of it was a sense of relief.
Beyond a sigh of relief as if having escaped from death’s grasp, there was quite a bit of hesitation hidden in their eyes.
And when their gaze turned to Wan Cangxin, their brows were even more tightly knit with a hint of vigilance.
Little Situ, however, lit up upon seeing Su Mo:
“Lord Su, how come you are here?”
“By a twist of fate, I was here taking shelter from the rain.
“Just now, hearing someone traveling in the rain at night, I was worried it might be adversaries, so I temporarily hid. It wasn’t my intention to conceal myself.
“My apologies to all the ladies.”
Su Mo said as he clasped his fists.
Wan Cangxin also nodded: “Lord Su has been busy tonight for my sake. What’s wrong with Little Situ?”
“You… are you better now?”
Seeing that Wan Cangxin was no longer feigning his demeanor and was speaking entirely normally, Little Situ burst into laughter, his eyes filled with joy.
“Thank you for your concern.”
Wan Cangxin clasped his fists and said: “Thanks to your and Lord Su’s rescue, I was just able to reclaim my life. This gratitude is like being given a second life. In the next life, I shall make sure to repay this great kindness with utmost gratitude.”
Hearing this, Su Mo’s brows slightly knitted.
Little Situ just smiled: “As a doctor, it’s like the kindness of a parent. Seeing you safe and sound brings me endless joy, what’s there to talk about repayment…”
He paused a little in his words and then sighed: “Moreover, I’ve been ambushed by someone, and I’m afraid my life won’t last much longer. If there really is a next life, who knows where I might be.”
“Don’t talk like this.”
Su Mo quickly said: “What exactly happened to you? What’s wrong with him?”
The four maidens subconsciously glanced at Little Situ.
Little Situ stared blankly at Su Mo, seemingly recalling something, he bit his lower lip lightly but did not speak.
“…Young Master?”
One of the maidens glanced at Little Situ, then at Su Mo, as if she had made up her mind, and spoke softly:
“To speak of this matter, we must start from a few days ago.
“That day, we were nearly reaching Tianqu City, only dozens of miles away.
“Unexpectedly, when we were near a valley, we saw a group of strangely dressed males and females attacking a big monk.
“Although the monk looked fierce and his martial arts were brutal,
“he was advising people to be good, hoping they would put down their weapons and turn back to the right path.
“But to our surprise, those people not only ignored him but also spoke foul and offensive words.
“In encounters in Jianghu, one should not interfere lightly.
“However, during the conversation, those people claimed to be from Jile Heavenly Palace.
“Although we seldom venture into Jianghu, in recent times, we have been aware that Jile Heavenly Palace is a branch of the Dongcheng Demon Sect, infamous for its numerous misdeeds, beyond redemption.
“The monk, albeit fierce, was not necessarily a bad person for being their enemy.
“Hence, we decided to help.
“These people from Jile Heavenly Palace have formidable martial arts.
“They can charm and confuse the mind with seductive sounds, making it unbearable…”
At this point, she frowned slightly but continued to speak:
“Seeing this, our young master noticed the monk was seriously injured.
“He didn’t want to entangle more with them, therefore used a smoke bomb to blind their eyes and sought a chance to escape.
“Afterward, we found a safe place to treat the monk’s injuries.
“Sadly, the monk was gravely injured, and even with our young master’s full efforts, it was beyond help.
“He could only find a moment of peace before death to explain his origins and unfinished business.
“And that monk… claimed to be Hui Bian.”
“Hui Bian!?”
Upon hearing these two words, Su Mo was momentarily stunned: “Is it really Hui Bian?”
“Does Lord Su know this monk?”
The maiden looked surprised upon hearing this and turned to look at Su Mo.
Su Mo nodded.
Outside Jiaolong Water Fort, Master Hongyun once mentioned this name.
And this person… was Ning Wubian, the Ban Tiankuang who went to cause trouble at Hongyun Temple that day!
His secular name was Ning Wubian, and Master Hongyun gave him the monastic name Hui Bian.
Su Mo remembered it upon hearing it that day.
But he didn’t expect to hear it again now!
By now, Su Mo also understood that the commotion that day in the valley was actually the clash between Little Situ and the Evil People from Jile Heavenly Palace.
But when Su Mo and Wei Ziyi arrived, Little Situ and his group had already made themselves scarce.
Only leaving behind those from Jile Heavenly Palace, blinded by the poison smoke and unable to leave, looking for their tracks.
Regretfully, Su Mo was one step too late, thus missing the chance to meet with them.
