Chapter 735: Chapter 312 Lady Wan_3
“This…”
Deng Fengbai and the others looked at each other, and finally agreed.
They truly did not dare to offend the most prominent person in Donghuang.
Seeing this, Su Mo also looked back in the direction Bei Changzhi had gone.
The person who chased after the Qilin Swordsman just now was Ling Hongxia.
Not to mention that Bei Changzhi was now seriously injured, even if he were unharmed, it wouldn’t be easy to gain an advantage against Ling Hongxia.
The Jinghong Fenguang hand and Yixuan Divine Skill he relied on were not enough to pose a threat to Ling Hongxia.
It’s better for Ling Hongxia to capture this person than for him to be directly killed by someone from Wusheng Hall.
After this glance, he walked back to his original seat, casually glancing at Yang Yizhi.
In Yang Yizhi’s eyes, however, there was a trace of confusion.
Su Mo nodded slightly.
He understood what Yang Yizhi was thinking.
The fact that traitors from Li Siyun’s clan were hiding in Wusheng Hall had obviously been firmly established.
But… it could not possibly be Bei Changzhi.
It is said that you can recognize an expert as soon as they make a move.
If he hasn’t made a move, it still allows others to be unclear about his capabilities.
Now that he has acted, both Su Mo and Yang Yizhi could easily assess his depth in the arena.
His martial arts were indeed lacking somewhat.
Yixuan Divine Skill inherently possesses Creation Divine Power, being immersed in it for years, the traitor’s Inner Strength must be far superior to Bei Changzhi’s.
And looking at Bei Changzhi’s performance in this battle, although he killed mightily,
In actuality, his own power was not much higher than those Hall Masters present.
The reason for his immediate overwhelming effect lies in the brilliance of Jinghong Fenguang hand and Yixuan Divine Skill themselves.
If the traitor from Li Siyun’s clan had only this level of skill,
Even though there were people from the Yu Family blocking the pursuers from the Three Extremes Sect that night, he could definitely not have escaped.
However, this person might not be that traitor, but he must be his successor.
Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have learned these two martial arts.
Thinking this, Su Mo suddenly looked towards Li Zhongming:
“Hall Master Li, although North Hall Master’s martial arts are high, it seems like he hasn’t used the Great Transformation Rebirth Heart Lotus Scripture yet, right?”
“Um…” Li Zhongming nodded but then let out a bitter smile:
“To be honest, even I have never heard or seen the martial arts North Hall Master used today…”
Speaking of which, Li Zhongming felt like his position as the First Hall Master was almost a joke…
The various events unfolding inside the hall today were now beyond his understanding.
First, there was an assassin implicating Wan Yutang; then, there were rumors connecting Lady Wan and Ren Xiongfei; Bei Changzhi, in a blink of an eye, went from a revered Second Hall Master to a Wusheng Hall traitor.
He always felt that if things continued this way, Wusheng Hall might be finished.
While he was pondering this matter, he saw that the person sent to summon Lady Wan had returned.
Only, he returned alone.
Upon reaching the hall and seeing the chaos inside, he hesitated, not knowing if he should speak.
Li Zhongming was already distressed, and seeing all this only intensified his irritation.
However, being extraordinary, he took a deep breath and calmly said:
“Speak.”
The person immediately nodded and glanced at everyone present:
“Lady invites all the Hall Masters and Su, the Chief of the Escort, to come to the back mountain to talk.”
“Eh?”
Li Zhongming’s face changed slightly and he immediately asked: “What did the Lady say?”
“She said… some matters would be more conveniently explained in the back mountain.”
Everyone in the hall turned to look at Su Mo upon hearing this.
Su Mo smiled:
“That’s right, with today’s discussion reaching this point, and the key figure yet to appear, it indeed seems somewhat unreasonable.
“At this point, it’s only proper to ask the Great Hall Master to come forth.
“But I wonder if I, an outsider from Wusheng Hall, am qualified to go to the revered back mountain of your hall?”
As he said this, he glanced at Li Xuechun, seemingly casual but clearly meaningful.
Li Xuechun, seeing this, instinctively shrank his neck…
However, Su Mo’s words left everyone present quite helpless.
Logically, outsiders are not allowed to go to the back mountain.
But if they don’t allow Su Mo to go today, that means they would be turning against Su, the Chief of the Escort.
Although Su Mo’s words were polite… if you dare disobey even slightly, you might just see if the most prominent person in Donghuang really has such a good temper.
Without further discussion, the Hall Masters invited Su Mo and others to the back mountain.
…
…
Entering deep into the inner courtyard of Wusheng Hall and continuing inside, they reached the back mountain.
This area was a mountain hollow, surrounded on three sides by mountains, and one side was Wusheng Hall.
Being a forbidden area, it was usually extremely quiet.
Upon Su Mo and the others’ arrival, before even observing inside the forbidden area, they saw a woman standing alone in front of it.
She looked towards the direction of the forbidden area, her gaze filled with myriad thoughts and feelings.
Eventually, all turned into a long, leisurely sigh.
She turned around, revealing her true face.
“We’ve seen the Lady!”
Courtesy prompted the Hall Masters to bow one after another.
This person was indeed Lady Wan!
Su Mo had never seen Lady Wan before; he had only heard her voice last night.
But just that was enough to tell that the Lady Wan standing before them now was not the same as the one from last night.
Seeing Lady Wan today, lightly made up, with a serene face showing signs of age, though still charming, indicated a dignified bearing even in a simple attire with a modest curtsy:
“We’ve seen Su, the Chief of the Escort.”
Her voice also lacked the charm of the previous night; it was gentle, yet maintained elegance.
“We’ve seen Lady Wan.”
Su Mo, momentarily speechless, returned the gesture and looking around, smilingly said:
“Wusheng Hall’s forbidden area is indeed a lovely place, but may I know why the Lady has asked us to come here? Is there something you wish to discuss?”
Upon hearing this, Lady Wan’s expression changed several times before she suddenly fell to her knees with a thud.
Her face was full of sorrow:
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, I… I beg you to save me!!”
