Capítulo 1109: Chapter 437: Awakening
The clouds opened and the mist cleared, sweeping away the day’s gloom.
The large ship of Ziyang Escort Agency headed south, heading towards Tianqi Island.
And the events on Gupiao Island are now three days past.
On that day, Su Mo bid farewell to the Poison Master for the second time.
The body was not left on Gupiao Island.
Since there were a few uncertain days to wait, he simply took them with the ship, bringing both the Fansheng Pill and the Poison Master’s corpse back to his lady.
With Little Situ around, the body would not decay.
Presumably, the Poison Master wouldn’t want to be buried on that unfamiliar Gupiao Island, right?
After handling the Poison Master’s affairs, securing the Fansheng Pill, Su Mo went to the island to meet with other Jianghu people.
The tragedy on Gupiao Island provoked public outrage.
What Su Mo could do was share the details of the events he knew.
However, he did not mention the Poison Master’s term ‘one and all’.
He simply followed the usual line of thought and mentioned the Crying Blood Sword to those present.
Among the seasoned Jianghu figures present, some indeed had heard of the Crying Blood Sword.
After Su Mo finished speaking, several others immediately added their opinions.
Simultaneously, this provided Su Mo with some new information about the Crying Blood Sword.
Though, most were remarkably similar to what Zeng Chou had said.
This also confirmed to Su Mo that, even if he tried to keep it secret, news would spread following these people leaving Gupiao Island, reaching Nanhai.
Hence, he focused on just this matter, and convened a meeting with them.
Ultimately, two resolutions were made.
The first was essentially stated in advance, that through everyone’s word, the occurrences on Gupiao Island would be disseminated entirely.
So that more people in Nanhai Martial World would know that the Crying Blood Sword had resurfaced in Jianghu.
Utilizing the collective power of the astute minds in Nanhai Martial World, seeking justice for the victims on Gupiao Island.
The second dealt with the Shattered Star Sect.
After all, Gupiao Island falls under the jurisdiction of the Shattered Star Sect.
Such a significant event cannot exclude the Shattered Star Sect.
Present Shattered Star Sect disciples included Zhou Wenjing and her foolish senior brother, along with others who acted together with Li Mosheng and Zhang Quan on Dragon Wood Island.
Originally, they were supposed to report this directly to the sect.
However, due to limited ships, if this group monopolized a large ship, others would face a shortage of vessels.
Fortunately, Shattered Star Sect is not far from Gupiao Island, so Xia Qiuliang and others also followed Zhou Wenjing and her group back to the sect, later borrowing ships from Shattered Star Sect to depart.
Overall, for the time being, this is all that can be done.
And for Su Mo and his companions, there was naturally no time now to lead a group of Jianghu experts in chasing after the Crying Blood Sword Slave.
Moreover, there were hidden currents flowing beneath the surface.
Thus, the best option is still to let the people of Nanhai handle the matter themselves.
Of course, the matter is not quite finished yet.
But some things, when said by Su Mo, might not have the best effect.
Especially when the three words ‘Crying Blood Sword’ were mentioned, Su Mo noticed that many present had already developed thoughts.
Ultimately, people’s minds here are hard to control, so he chose to temporarily let things be.
Thus, the situation on Gupiao Island is slightly concluded.
After everyone buried the bodies of the victims on the island, they stayed for the night and set off in different directions the next day.
Of course, there were some side notes.
Jianghu figures present expressed their gratitude to Su Mo.
Some made verbal promises, committing to things like ‘Should there be any matter, Hero Su can command without hesitation, even at the risk of death’.
Others offered tokens.
These included not only tokens but a multitude of other items.
Such as little swords, hairpins, rings, and more…
They also provided the locations of their various sects, promising that should there be any orders in the future, simply send someone with the token and a message, and regardless of hardships, they will surely come to aid…
Such matters were handled until midnight before coming to a close.
Then it was time to decide how to settle Little Ning and his sibling.
The siblings had gone to Dragon Wood Island with Su Mo, and upon returning, home was gone!
Allowing them to stay on Gupiao Island, two children alone, was obviously impossible—they wouldn’t survive.
Finally, Zhou Wenjing proposed to take them back to the sect, to seek permission to admit them into the sect.
Su Mo consulted Little Ning and his sibling’s opinions.
Little Ning was full of anticipation and gratitude, with no intention of refusal.
Naturally, Su Mo was pleased to facilitate their growth, and thus, it was decided.
Actually, if Little Ning didn’t want to join the Shattered Star Sect, Su Mo might have considered taking him as a disciple.
But since they had already made their choice, Su Mo naturally didn’t want to force them.
Sometimes, things are just so.
A momentary difference in thought can lead to vastly different outcomes.
Opportunities arise and fade, circulating within.
Now, Su Mo sat on a chair on the deck, under a large umbrella, holding a fishing rod, though his mind was elsewhere than fishing.
He was focused on the White Tiger.
The White Tiger was on the sea.
Its four hooves churned, walking on waves, each step causing the seawater to freeze, utilizing the thin ice to leap, with unmatched speed, running joyfully.
