Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning

At this moment, Xiao He came forward to report:

"Young master, that person has woken up."

"Then please ask him to come over for a talk."

Su Mo nodded slightly.

Xiao He agreed, and shortly after, brought over the man named Yun Mantang.

The poison in his body was severe, but it had already been neutralized by Little Situ.

Yun Mantang was aware of his condition; the Yanwang Zhuiming Powder was by no means an ordinary poison.

These people not only had many experts but also had a master in medicine, making Yun Mantang increasingly cautious.

Upon arriving, he honestly saluted Su Mo:

"Thank you, Brother, for rescuing me. This life-saving grace, Yun Mantang will remember it in my heart!"

"No need to be so polite."

Su Mo gently waved his hand:

"Brother Yun, please sit down and talk. It’s inappropriate to delve deeply after a shallow acquaintance. Therefore, the matters concerning Brother Yun’s predicament are not my business to inquire."

Upon hearing this, Yun Mantang breathed a sigh of relief.

The matters concerning him were secretive; Su Mo had a life-saving grace towards him. If he inquired, it would be difficult for him to handle.

Concealing the truth would be ungrateful to Su Mo’s kindness.

Yet telling Su Mo would betray the trust of friends.

Now that Su Mo had already said he wouldn’t ask, Yun Mantang felt deeply grateful.

He immediately clasped his fists together:

"Thank you, Brother."

"It’s nothing."

Su Mo shook his head:

"However, although I have no intention of prying into your affairs, there is something here that I would like to inquire about with you, Brother."

"Oh?"

Yun Mantang immediately took a serious tone:

"Brother, feel free to ask. As long as I know, I will speak without reservation."

"Alright then..."

Su Mo got straight to the point:

"May I ask, in the land of Xizhou, which faction reigns supreme?"

The question left Yun Mantang momentarily speechless:

"Brother is not from Xizhou?"

Su Mo shook his head with a smile:

"I refrain from asking Brother Yun about his origins, yet Brother Yun seeks to probe into mine."

"This... I misspoke."

"It doesn’t matter."

Su Mo waved his hand: "Our origins are of no great concern.

"I am Wu, Wu Chengfeng.

"I come from Nanhai, here in Xizhou to engage in trade.

"However, new to this area, my understanding of Xizhou is limited.

"Although I have inquired about some things, it cannot compare to Brother Yun, who knows the Jianghu so well.

"That’s why I asked rather abruptly."

"So, it is Brother Wu in person."

Yun Mantang quickly clasped his fists again and said with surprise:

"Brother Wu is actually from Nanhai?

"I have heard that there is an incredible figure in Nanhai now!"

"Oh?"

Su Mo smiled: "Whom might Brother Yun be referring to?"

"The Nanhai Supreme Su Mo!"

When Yun Mantang mentioned this, he was somewhat excited:

"It is said this person hails from Donghuang, recognized as Donghuang’s top expert.

"Under the name of Ziyang Escort Agency, they entered Nanhai, overturning clouds with one hand and summoning rain with the other.

"They successively subdued the Nanhai Alliance and Dragon King Hall, eventually defeating Gui Xu Island, unifying Nanhai, and becoming the acknowledged Nanhai Sovereign!

"Such a person, has Brother Wu not heard of them?"

Everyone who heard this was momentarily awkward in their expressions.

Seeing this, Yun Mantang was momentarily taken aback:

"Could it be that Brother Wu has some connection with this Supreme Elder Su?"

"Brother Yun jests."

Su Mo waved his hand:

"That person is the Nanhai Supreme, far above. I am merely a merchant, how could I be associated with him?

"However, to say there is no relation at all would not be accurate.

"This person becoming the Nanhai Supreme has far-reaching impacts on Nanhai’s structure.

"We who conduct trade naturally have to leave ourselves an extra way out.

"In the past, I wanted to join the Hundred Merchants Association... hmm, this is an alliance in Nanhai. Brother Yun might not be aware...

"But now, even the Hundred Merchants Association is in a state of mutual unease.

"With a Supreme in Nanhai, no one knows if it’s a blessing or a curse, which is why I’m risking to come to Xizhou for a chance."

"I see."

Yun Mantang suddenly understood, also nodding slightly:

"Since the fall of Da Xuan, the world has been in constant turmoil.

"Ah... Brother Wu has this concern, rightly so, as one contemplates safety amidst danger, which I respect.

"As for Xizhou, it is relatively easier to discuss.

"As long as you don’t offend that hall, the Eight Sects, and the Nine Peaks, relying on the experts by Brother Wu’s side, you can venture out boldly for business in Xizhou."

"One Hall, Eight Sects, Nine Peaks?"

Su Mo raised his eyebrow slightly:

"Please elaborate, Brother Yun."

"Certainly."

Yun Mantang immediately began to explain the so-called One Hall, Eight Sects, and Nine Peaks.

The so-called Nine Peaks actually refer to nine mountains.

Or rather, nine major factions.

They hold the mountains and are numerous, but have fewer experts, often gathering like a whirlwind.

The Nine Mountains unite, dominating an area, not to be underestimated.

The Eight Sects, on the other hand, are eight great factions.

Disciples are spread throughout Jianghu, each with their Absolute Skills, not to be trifled with.

"The ancestor of the Xing Family in Baisui City, in the past, hailed from one of the Eight Sects.

"The martial arts heritage is exceedingly impressive.

"There is a saying in Jianghu, ’Better to see Yanwang alive than a Xing Family youth.’

"This gives a glimpse of their prowess."

When Yun Mantang spoke of this, his gaze showed slight composure; although he admired, he didn’t overstate.

Su Mo then naturally inquired:

"The Xing Family... is it the Xing Family of Baisui City?"

"Indeed."

Yun Mantang smiled: "Earlier Brother Wu had also heard; actually, my trip is to Baisui City, entrusted to seek Old Master Xing, though the reason is not for public sharing."

"Hmm."

Su Mo nodded: "And what about this One Hall, what’s the significance?"

"This One Hall... is called Jinglong Hall!"

Yun Mantang said this, frowning:

"Jinglong Hall is mysterious, with few knowing about it in Jianghu, yet it’s extremely formidable.

"If you offend the Eight Sects and Nine Peaks, apology and gifts, coupled with someone to mediate, can ease major issues into minor ones, eventually resolving them.

"But if you offend Jinglong Hall...

"Under the pressure of Jinglong, there is no way out, only hope for reincarnation.

"Brother Wu, if in the future you encounter people from Jinglong Hall, no matter what, you must retreat, avoid conflict at all costs.

"Otherwise, in all Xizhou, I fear no one can save you!"

Upon hearing this, Su Mo nodded slightly, turning to glance toward a carriage.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Yun Mantang’s words were exactly the same as the Tenth Shock.

It seemed that woman hadn’t deceived him.

As this thought crossed his mind, suddenly a voice was heard from afar:

"You only told him not to provoke those great and large factions.

"But did you not tell him that there are some people in the Jianghu who also must never be offended?"

Su Mo glanced in the dark, then looked at Yun Mantang.

He saw that Yun Mantang’s face was already pale, and upon seeing Su Mo, he sighed long:

"I should have known not to meddle where I shouldn’t.

"Brother Wu, this time I’ve caused trouble for you..."
