Chapter 1642 - 613: Tianjing Sect (2)
But soon, they turned their gaze to Su Mo.
Su Mo chuckled silently:
"He scoured your Xing Family, so naturally, this money belongs to you.
"Your current look... seems like I might snatch it forcefully."
Xing Zhan and Xing Hao’s faces suddenly turned red.
They wanted to say something but didn’t know how to begin.
Fortunately, Su Mo didn’t mind, waved his hand, and continued searching.
There were items in this underground palace, but not many.
Nothing that particularly interested Su Mo.
He checked as thoroughly as possible, confirmed there were no secret compartments, and then exited the underground palace.
Su Mo lightly clasped his fist towards Xing Hao and Xing Zhan:
"Today’s matter ends here.
"Young Master Xing, Master Xing, tonight, you haven’t seen me."
"Naturally."
Xing Zhan and Xing Hao understood the meaning behind Su Mo’s words.
They were even hoping it to be true.
Su Mo’s martial arts are so advanced; whoever he battles against, if he is this cautious, naturally his opponent is not someone they can face.
Being unaware actually protects them.
Otherwise, a small mistake can lead to endless suffering.
After glancing at the two again, Su Mo hesitated slightly, seemingly wanting to say more, but instead smiled:
"Goodbye."
With these words, Su Mo’s figure flickered, already on the rooftop, and two black clothed men, along with the impersonator of Xing Ru Hai, disappeared in an instant.
By now, Xing Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief, glancing at Xing Hao’s finger:
"Uncle... what should we do now?"
Xing Hao slightly shook his head, looked at Xing Zhan:
"I’m fine; the key now lies with you...
"The Elixir they took, that Elixir..."
At this, he couldn’t continue.
Xing Tao directed Song Qing to plunder his family’s possessions, and when the plot was exposed, Xing Ru Hai directly captured Xing Tao, making him reflect.
But unexpectedly, he covertly extracted Xing Tao’s heart, directly refining an elixir.
It was intended for Xing Zhan to consume.
Xing Zhan practices Blood Shadow Heart Demon Technique; without this elixir, achieving Great Success is difficult.
But, will consuming this elixir truly lead to Great Success?
After achieving Great Success, will there be no other hidden dangers?
If he doesn’t reach the summit, keeping it suspended, will problems emerge?
Now the elixir is taken by Su Mo; temporarily there’s no choice but to let it go.
But regarding what Xing Zhan should do next, Xing Hao couldn’t help but worry.
Thinking about the current state of the Xing Family caused further headaches.
"Uncle, my matter we can temporarily not consider."
Xing Zhan then said:
"But, three days from now... we must plan early."
Upon hearing this, Xing Hao suddenly understood.
The impersonator of Xing Ru Hai planned to take advantage of the chaos three days from now to make Xing Zhan rise in Jianghu.
Now that person is captured by ’Lord Wu’, will the happenings three days from now still occur?
If nothing happens, that’s good; but if it does, how should one respond?
...
...
Let’s set aside the matter of the Xing Family for now.
Su Mo had already returned to the Longevity Pavilion with Yu Lingxin.
Inside Longevity Pavilion, upon seeing Su Mo, Yang Xiaoyun deeply exhaled in relief:
"Husband, you’re finally back!"
Su Mo casually tossed the person in his hand to the ground, looked at Yang Xiaoyun, somewhat puzzled:
"What’s wrong with you?"
Yang Xiaoyun shook her head:
"Nothing, nothing, let’s talk about it later."
Just now, when Ling Hongxia started talking, Yang Yizhi quickly hid far away.
Then Ling Hongxia questioned Yang Xiaoyun thoroughly, even giving a substantial lesson on certain knowledge.
After confirming that Yang Xiaoyun truly understood everything, and Su Mo had performed every step correctly, Ling Hongxia was finally satisfied, nodding her head.
Then started asking, why not have children...
These topics of family issues truly overwhelmed Yang Xiaoyun.
Feeling immense pressure.
Thankfully, Su Mo returned; otherwise, she felt almost unable to bear any longer.
Su Mo glanced at her, finding that his wife seemed to have gone through a fierce battle, shaking his head with a sigh:
"Alright then."
At this moment, Yang Yizhi had already looked at the man brought back, surprised:
"Mo’er, who is this person?"
"Xing Ru Hai."
Su Mo spoke the three words resolutely.
Yang Yizhi and Ling Hongxia exchanged glances.
Thinking, has Xing Ru Hai turned young again?
Isn’t Old Master Xing a title for nothing?
Shouldn’t he be a decrepit old man; the figure before is clearly a middle-aged man.
"This person has impersonated Xing Ru Hai for ten years."
Yu Lingxin spoke solemnly:
"Ten years ago, Xing Ru Hai was already dead.
"This person wore Xing Ru Hai’s human skin, and since then, has been presiding over Xing Family affairs."
Upon these words, Yang Yizhi and Ling Hongxia finally understood.
Promptly asking for details.
So Mo and Yu Lingxin explained the situation, and the three listened with amazement.
Also with a sense of sighing.
"Xing Hao turned against his father for his son.
"Ironically, this father wasn’t his father.
"If he were the real Xing Ru Hai, he certainly wouldn’t have been so cruel to Xing Tao."
Ling Hongxia gently shook her head: "Or rather, such actions wouldn’t occur in the Xing Family now. These people never regarded the Xing Family as human..."
Yang Yizhi then looked at the person:
"What’s your surname and name?"
The man lying on the ground, looked at Yang Yizhi and the others, his brows furrowed:
"Who might you be?"
"Mo’er."
