Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 1724 - 636: Deep in the Clouds (Part 3)Attempting to find clues from this person’s words was truly a bit unrealistic.
Thinking of this, Su Mo casually asked:
"Do you know where the Third Shock went?"
At this point, his tone was already devoid of hope.
"I don’t know... but, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, he might be at Weiyang Palace."
"Oh?"
Su Mo was taken aback; he had entirely not expected any reply to that question.
Unexpectedly, he actually got an answer!
"Fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Weiyang Palace..."
Yang Yizhi glanced at Su Mo:
"Is the Third Shock of Longmen also interested in the coming-of-age ceremony of the young hall master of Jinglong Hall?"
Su Mo gave the Blood Lotus Sect Leader a meaningful look:
"How did you come to know this? Did the Third Shock tell you?"
"No."
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader honestly replied:
"I happened to overhear him talking to himself.
"He said, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, there would be excitement at Weiyang Palace, and he must see it for himself."
Upon hearing this, Su Mo couldn’t help but ponder:
"What expression did he have when he said this?"
"Anticipated satisfaction."
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader replied softly:
"It’s the expression the Third Shock always shows when he has schemed against others."
"I see."
Su Mo’s expression remained calm, but his gaze grew sharper.
After a moment, he took a light breath and then said to Yu Lingxin:
"Miss Yu, could you please prepare some paper, ink, and a writing brush?"
"Alright."
Yu Lingxin nodded.
She turned and left, and when she returned after a moment, she was carrying the items Su Mo requested.
Su Mo looked at the Blood Lotus Sect Leader:
"I want you to write two things.
"The first is a self-narrative of all the evil deeds the Blood Lotus Sect has done over the years.
"Write everything clearly in detail, no matter how big or small."
"Yes."
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader agreed immediately, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and began writing.
Su Mo quietly watched for a moment, then taught him how to simplify it, before saying:
"The second document... concerns the matters of the Jinglong Association. Write down everything you know, regardless of whether it’s hearsay or not, and leave nothing out."
"Yes."
The Blood Lotus Sect Leader agreed again.
He lowered his head, writing vigorously and swiftly.
It was only now that Su Mo took out a letter from his bosom and threw it onto the table:
"This is the letter left to me by the Third Shock. Everyone, have a look."
The envelope had four large words: ’To be opened personally by Su Mo.’
Yang Xiaoyun and Yu Lingxin didn’t react much.
But when these four words caught the eyes of Yang Yizhi and Ling Hongxia, it caused a great stir.
Yang Yizhi even looked up suddenly at Su Mo:
"You said this was left to you by the Third Shock?"
Su Mo nodded.
Ling Hongxia had already taken the letter, read it quickly yet thoroughly.
Not satisfied, she read it carefully again, then suddenly stood up to leave.
"Aunt Ling, please wait."
Su Mo quickly spoke up.
Ling Hongxia’s footsteps immediately paused.
Then she heard Su Mo sigh:
"Aunt Ling, where are you going?"
"... to find him."
"Where will you find him?"
"The fifth day of the fifth lunar month, at Weiyang Palace."
Ling Hongxia spoke without a second thought.
Su Mo gently shook his head:
"The Third Shock’s cunning is unparalleled in my life.
"How can you be sure whether the letter is genuine or not?
"And how do you know... that so-called self-talk wasn’t performed for the Blood Lotus Sect Leader?
"The goal is to make us lose the ability to discern the truth, rushing into Weiyang Palace on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
"Once our identities are exposed, the subsequent situation is hard to tell.
"Aunt Ling... hasty actions lead to trouble. Please keep calm for now."
Upon hearing this, Ling Hongxia took a deep breath, looking up at the ceiling, tears welling up in her eyes, yet she forced them back:
"Indeed... I didn’t expect you to remind me.
"He’s been dead for so many years.
"I have also considered him dead for so many years...
"Why am I still so impatient?
"It’s just, thinking, if this letter is real.
"I... I truly am..."
As she spoke, she took a deep breath, seemingly unsure how to continue.
Meanwhile, Yang Yizhi had finished reading the letter, his face turning ashen:
"This is impossible!!
"Before he left, he came to see me, and we talked a lot that night.
"Those things could not be fake.
"Moreover, if back then, the Third Shock knew all about this, how would I have survived?
"This scoundrel deceives us so, how could I rest in peace?"
Yang Xiaoyun, Wei Ziyi, and Yu Lingxin, however, were confused.
They didn’t know what the letter contained.
Immediately, Yu Lingxin took the letter, and Yang Xiaoyun and Wei Ziyi didn’t wait, moving directly behind her to read it as well.
After reading, they each gasped.
Only then did they understand why Ling Hongxia and Yang Yizhi had such strong reactions.
If the contents of this letter were true, it was indeed unbelievable.
But... could this letter be real?
The silence was eventually broken by Yu Lingxin, who softly spoke:
"Brother Su is right, the Third Shock’s ability to scheme is indeed terrifying.
"This letter’s authenticity is hard to discern, its reality unknown.
"So at this point, we might as well not consider the letter’s authenticity, but rather ponder why the Third Shock would write such a letter!"
"I think this letter is fake."
Yang Xiaoyun suddenly spoke up, calmly and resolutely.
"Oh?"
Everyone immediately looked at Yang Xiaoyun.
They heard Yang Xiaoyun speak softly:
"Everyone’s concern has led to confusion.
"Perhaps you’ve all ignored a crucial point..."
"Yun’er, speak quickly."
Yang Yizhi urged.
This letter indeed threw his heart into disarray.
Though he didn’t want to admit the letter could be real, deep down, he held onto a sliver of hope.
If his brother was actually still alive?
This thought is quite terrifying.
It would affect all subsequent judgments.
What they’re doing is like walking on a tightrope over a cliff.
Any slight mishap, and they would fall to their deaths.
If Yang Xiaoyun truly could discern the truth, even if disappointed, it would strengthen his resolve.
Yang Xiaoyun hesitated not, speaking softly:
"If Father-in-law were still alive, why write this letter?"
