Chapter 643: Chapter 282 Hero Xu
This display of rapid and decisive action was truly extraordinary.
Chang Shixin was by no means an ordinary man, yet no one expected his death to be so abrupt.
In that moment, a rising bitterness hadn’t yet surfaced, but everyone’s hearts were filled with shock and uncertainty.
The two bearers glanced at the half-corpse in their hands, tossed it to the ground carelessly, and retreated back under the sedan chair, lifting it up once more.
However, Su Mo paid no further attention to the changes inside the hall. In his view, these people were all bound to die tonight in Tihu Village.
Whether they died sooner or later was merely a matter of time.
Qi Dashan’s actions went unnoticed by others, but Su Mo saw them clearly.
He saw him quietly leave through the back courtyard, only the direction he took was not towards the house where they were staying tonight.
Coincidentally, he was heading towards Xu Lu’s location.
A spark glinted in Su Mo’s eyes, suddenly recalling a phrase someone had previously mentioned, “If this action fails and the news leaks, then what should be done?”
The current situation was clearly disadvantageous for the Mountain Master.
Fiends and evil spirits from all directions were converging, some even inexplicably.
Especially the last big red sedan.
In such a situation, instead of gathering manpower, he had Qi Dashan do something else…
“Could it be…”
A thought struck Su Mo, and he immediately pulled Yang Xiaoyun: “Let’s go.”
Yang Xiaoyun had always obeyed Su Mo without question, and since he suggested they leave, they left.
The arrival of the big red sedan was mysterious, and by the looks of it, its purpose here was to trouble these two groups of people.
Judging by this person’s behavior, they must originate from the Yin Mountain lineage.
But somehow, they got entangled with Xu Lu?
Could it be… that this person also came from the Hidden Killing Building?
The thought rippled through her mind, and as Yang Xiaoyun was pulled by Su Mo, both of them used the Divine Transformation, catching up with the still oblivious Qi Dashan in an instant.
Qi Dashan was headed into the forest.
On the way, he kept looking back to see if anyone was following him.
However, overall, he was quite hurried.
Thus, in just a moment, they arrived at a hidden cave through a twisting path.
There was no firelight outside the cave, but two men were guarding it.
Upon seeing Qi Dashan arrive, they hurriedly bowed:
“Have seen the master.”
Now, Qi Dashan had none of the simplicity he had when splitting wood earlier, his eyes coldly sweeping over the two men:
“Did you hear any noises? Or see any figures?”
“No.”
The two men looked at each other and simultaneously shook their heads.
But after shaking their heads, there was a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
Qi Dashan instantly noticed, shouted:
“Speak.”
“Just now… there was a wildcat moving back and forth in the bushes, we thought it was someone, so went to check.”
One person hesitantly said, “But there were no traces, we only heard the cat’s cry.”
Qi Dashan’s expression suddenly changed, leaving only one sentence:
“Guard the gate!”
And he had already rushed into the cave between them.
The two men looked at each other, a bit uneasy, and could only stand guard again.
But just at this moment, both shuddered and found themselves unable to move at all.
In the next second, a man and a woman arrived gracefully.
Yang Xiaoyun looked at them and said to Su Mo, “Xiao Mo, your acupoint technique is truly exquisite.”
“If Sister Yun likes it, I will teach it to you later.”
While Su Mo was talking, he flicked his fingers twice more, the two guards remained motionless, but the gleam in their eyes dimmed instantly.
Their arms, previously curved, now dropped naturally, and their heads drooped slightly, having been hit by Su Mo with the Finger Flicking Technique on their fatal acupoints.
Although they were already stiff from Su Mo’s Qiankun Acupoint Technique while alive, their bodies did not collapse as their blood was sealed, which would no longer be a matter of concern as long as they were left untouched.
Su Mo had absolutely no mercy for the followers of Wangxuan Mountain or those from Wusheng Hall.
He used lethal moves, intending that none should leave Tihu Village alive.
After killing the two guards, Yang Xiaoyun peeked into the cave:
“What exactly is inside this cave?”
“If I’m not mistaken, it should be the villagers of Tihu Village.”
After saying this, Su Mo took Yang Xiaoyun and walked into the cave.
…
…
The Master of Wangxuan Mountain came prepared.
Su Mo, hailed for his immense righteousness ever since he started walking in Jianghu, was regarded as a role model by the younger generation on the Path of Chivalry.
Therefore, after the Mountain Master led his men to Tihu Village, he did not massacre all the villagers as Su Mo had thought.
Instead, after killing those who resisted, he detained the rest in this cave.
Their decision not to kill was not out of mercy.
It was merely because these villagers could be valuable.
Su Mo’s reputation was too significant, and even with the Heart Demon’s Charming Heart Technique, they were not sure of success.
If they failed, then what?
If Su Mo discovered their intentions, could they withstand the wrath of Donghuang’s foremost warrior?
At that point, these villagers would indeed prove useful.
