Chapter 659: Chapter 287: Why the Tears?_2
Su Mo glanced at him, and after a brief contemplation, he then asked:
“What are the Blade Techniques that I used just now?”
“Da Lie Divine Blade!”
Ding Wugong immediately looked up at Su Mo:
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, now that things have come to this, I must dare to ask.
“The Da Lie Divine Blade is the Absolute Skill of the Second Hall Master of Wusheng Hall. It was said that ever since the Second Hall Master disappeared, the transmission of this martial arts has been severed. How did you manage to learn it?”
Su Mo, upon hearing this, began to believe that within Wusheng Hall, this martial arts had indeed been lost.
Otherwise, why couldn’t Ding Wugong realize that the Blade Technique he used was merely all show and no substance?
But… disappeared?
Su Mo remembered that Hu Sandao once mentioned, the person who taught him martial arts told him.
The rest of the Blade Technique required Hu Sandao to rescue someone from Wusheng Hall.
After rescuing this person, they would pass on the remainder of the Blade Technique to him.
Something didn’t match up here.
Ding Wugong had just mentioned that the Blade Technique was the Absolute Skill of the Second Hall of Wusheng Hall.
If the ‘disappearance’ of the Hall Master led to the loss of the Blade Technique.
This indicates that only the Second Hall Master knew this martial arts.
But according to the person who taught Hu Sandao, there was still another person within Wusheng Hall who knew this Blade Technique.
Who could this person be?
And why were they imprisoned within Wusheng Hall?
And which of these two was the real former Second Hall Master?
At the time when Hu Sandao told him, he briefly mentioned it, and Su Mo did not delve into it, nor did he ask in detail.
After this incident, he could definitely ask in detail.
But from the current situation, the affairs within Wusheng Hall seemed to be more complex than imagined.
If the existence of the Dark Hall was not a fabrication by Ding Wugong.
Then what exactly was the purpose of Wan Yutang creating this Dark Hall?
And how could the Dark Hall know so many secrets that others were unaware of?
Did they even know about Wan Yutang leading his men deep into the Da Xuan Ruins to find the potion of separation?
Furthermore… Why does Wan Yutang have the ability to delve so deeply into the Da Xuan Ruins?
Ever since the fall of the Da Xuan Dynasty, the Da Xuan Ruins could be considered the most dangerous place in the world.
In the initial years, many people wanted to enter to find the relics left by the Da Xuan Dynasty.
However, they either returned empty-handed or stayed there forever.
Over the years, although people occasionally ventured inside, they all came back without any gains.
They couldn’t even find the location of the Da Xuan Dynasty’s royal courts…
Then how could Wan Yutang do it?
Su Tianyang once left a message saying that the traitor from Li Siyun’s family had fled to the west.
Yang Yizhi also followed the clues of the Heavenly Gate Master and came to the territory of Wusheng Hall.
Could this person really be nestled within Wusheng Hall?
Why would he go anywhere else and instead come precisely to Wusheng Hall?
Thinking this, he suddenly asked:
“When did the original Master of the Second Hall disappear?”
“It was within a year or two after the current Great Hall Master assumed the position.”
Ding Wugong immediately gave an answer without any hesitation: “This is not a secret, the Master of Wangxuan Mountain should have heard about it.”
The Master of Wangxuan Mountain cursed inwardly, but seeing that Su Mo was looking at him, he nodded immediately:
“This incident also caused quite a bit of chaos at the time.
“The disappearance of the Second Hall Master, Xiao Xiong, left the entire Wusheng Hall searching for a long time to no avail.
“The original Vice Hall Master should have succeeded to the position, but the night before the handover, he drunkenly fought over a woman in a brothel.
“Unexpectedly, he was killed.
“In the end, the position of the Second Hall Master was taken over by Bei Changzhi, who was relatively unknown back then, and the Vice Hall Master fell into the hands of Xiao Feng, who was still under the age of 20.”
“Xiao Feng?”
Su Mo’s brows raised slightly.
“Gui Cang Blade, Xiao Feng.”
Ding Wugong nodded: “The Da Lie Divine Blade is the inherited martial arts of the Second Hall Master. Although Xiao Feng is Xiao Xiong’s son, he had no right to practice this Blade Technique before his succession.
“However, he has been learning blades since youth, also once witnessed firsthand the sharpness of the Da Lie Divine Blade in combat.
“Furthermore, he is a prodigious talent who managed to incorporate the strengths of various families into his own, eventually creating the Gui Cang Blade Technique.
“With this martial arts, his current reputation has already surpassed that of Bei Changzhi.”
After saying all this, Su Mo had temporarily nothing else to inquire about.
Contemplating, he pointed his finger, and Ding Wugong was suddenly immobilized.
Su Mo then looked at the Master of Wangxuan Mountain, who was still silently circulating his Inner Strength, attempting to break through his acupoints, and couldn’t help but smile:
“Mountain Master still hasn’t given up hope?”
The Master of Wangxuan Mountain was startled, and as these words fell on his ears, he felt as if all his strength had drained away.
He had been surreptitiously attempting to break through his acupoints, not wishing to draw Su Mo’s attention.
But the description of the potion of separation surprised him too much. The fact that Wusheng Hall had such a finding and yet no one knew made it impossible for him to contain himself.
So, even though he knew that speaking up would definitely catch Su Mo’s notice, he couldn’t help but ask.
Fortunately, afterwards, Su Mo’s attention was always on Ding Wugong, and he figured he might just get by without issue.
But he didn’t expect that Su Mo would still see through him.
He let out a long sigh:
“Lord Su, at this point, there’s no need for superfluous words. Kill or carve as you please, I will accept whatever comes my way.”
Su Mo nodded slightly, then glanced at the Heart Demon, who was quietly stepping towards Zhen Xiaoxiao’s location:
