Chapter 1680 - 626: Unworthy
Is the item used by Song Sect Leader?
In that instant, the first question to arise in Xia Yuan’s mind wasn’t about Su Mo’s identity.
Instead, it was about what Song Sect Leader had used that made this person so unforgettable?
"It’s that Fire Meteor."
Seeing his confusion, Su Mo promptly reminded him:
"The kind that explodes with a swoosh, and then draws in your Hall Master, the Blood Lotus Sect Leader, and so on."
"..."
Xia Yuan’s face twisted in anger:
"You’re pushing it too far..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a loud slap.
A heavy slap landed, spinning Xia Yuan several times on the spot before he collapsed to the ground.
When he opened his mouth, a few teeth flew out.
Only then did Su Mo’s voice reach his ears:
"Enough talk, now tell me if there’s any more?"
"... Yes, there’s still more..."
Xia Yuan hurriedly said:
"But even if there is more... all our people are here. Setting it off here won’t draw in the Hall Master and Blood Lotus Sect Leader...
"They simply can’t see it."
Hearing these words, Su Mo sighed in disappointment.
But on second thought, he extended his hand:
"Give it to me."
Xia Yuan hesitated for a moment, but eventually took out a Fire Meteor from his bosom.
Su Mo fiddled with it slightly, nodding gently.
After pocketing the Fire Meteor, he dragged Xia Yuan to the Blood Lotus Sect bigwig.
That person was still struggling on the ground.
Her limbs were pierced by longswords, pinning her to the ground like a specimen.
No matter how she struggled, she couldn’t break free.
With a casual wave, Su Mo sent the four longswords flying.
As soon as she was freed, the woman attempted to spring to her feet.
But then she saw Su Mo’s palm reaching out.
She immediately flipped her hands, enduring the severe pain in her arms, trying to resist.
Unfortunately, even if she were at her peak, she wouldn’t be able to resist Su Mo.
With a single shake of his palm, Su Mo dismantled her stance, then grabbed her by the throat:
"Let’s go, this isn’t the place for conversation, you two please come with me."
He said "please come with me," but in truth was dragging them towards the inn.
With only a couple of steps, he was already on the rooftop.
Having Little Situ bring Dong Cuilan along, they soon returned to the guest room in the inn.
Elder Yushu and the woman in red hesitated for a long time, but quickly followed.
The two were still in shock.
The young woman in red, though familiar with the treacherous Jianghu, had never witnessed someone as skilled as Su Mo.
The scenes imprinted on her mind, making her tremble.
Against such a person, her life and death truly hinged on his whim.
But even Elder Yushu, one of the Three Wonders and Five Elders, couldn’t remain calm now.
Years ago, Lord Ban Shu had single-handedly thrown the entire Qianji Sect into chaos.
In a series of confrontations, he even gained an advantage, forcing the Qianji Sect to retreat whenever they encountered him.
Yet, he acknowledged that he couldn’t storm into Jingxin Hall and cause such mayhem.
However, in a one-on-one fight, he feared no one.
Without a doubt, their martial arts skills were at the pinnacle of Xizhou.
However, the person before them defied all their understanding.
Not only did he move with the speed of the wind, saving them with unseen actions.
He could even walk in the air, traversing the void, as if an invisible staircase lay beneath his feet.
How skilled does one’s Qinggong have to be to achieve such incredible feats?
Yet, these could still be explained by martial arts.
But his ability to manipulate blood and water with such precision, forming it into a sword... was this too considered martial arts?
Could he be a Daluo Golden Immortal descended from the heavens?
Disgusted by the Blood Lotus Sect’s sins, and unable to tolerate Jingxin Hall’s hypocritical actions, he appears to eliminate evil?
Although this thought seemed outrageous.
Being in the presence of such a person meant they couldn’t help but approach him.
Especially now, seeing that he harbored no malice towards them. If they could receive guidance from such a master, their lives wouldn’t be in vain, and the ’child’ could benefit forever.
With these thoughts, they hastily reached the room’s entrance.
The door wasn’t closed, and they peeked inside.
They expected to see Su Mo severely interrogating the two individuals.
Instead, they saw Su Mo and Little Situ sipping tea with their cups.
Hearing footsteps, Su Mo turned to see them and smiled:
"Oh, it’s the elder and young lady.
"Do you have anything else?"
"..."
With one question, Elder Yushu was at a loss.
He chuckled awkwardly:
"Is the Young Hero ready to receive guests?"
"I am Yushu, and this child’s nickname is WaWa, full name Tian Ning’er. We are grateful for the Young Hero’s rescue tonight."
Su Mo smiled softly:
"It was nothing.
"Please, come in and sit."
Upon hearing this, Elder Yushu sighed in relief.
He led Tian Ning’er into the room.
Elder Yushu sat down cautiously, while Tian Ning’er dared not sit, silently standing behind Elder Yushu, occasionally stealing glances at Su Mo and Little Situ, her eyes also darting to Dong Cuilan and the Blood Lotus Sect woman.
Elder Yushu was feeling quite uneasy.
