Chapter 742: Chapter 315 Lord Jun
The setting sun dipped in the west, darkness approaching.
Now is the time when every household fires up their kitchens.
Children playing, parents scolding, and elders protecting, all happening within their respective homes.
Except in this small courtyard, where silence prevailed.
Since Su Mo raised this question, ’Wan Yutang’ fell into silence.
The first to speak was Bei Changzhi, who looked at Su Mo:
“You… Su, the Chief of the Escort, what nonsense are you spouting?
“Of course, he is our Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall, who else could he be?”
“Is that so?”
Su Mo smiled:
“Last night, the Great Hall Master visited Lady Wan’s mansion.
“Coincidentally, I also wanted to search for some things there last night.
“When the Great Hall Master and Lady Wan arrived, they carelessly trapped me in a secret chamber.
“Thus, I overheard some shocking revelations.
“And from that conversation, it wasn’t hard to discern some truths.
“In the Endless Prison, there’s an ’Old Ghost’ imprisoned, and now even Wan Cangxin is detained there.
“Lady Wan and this ’Old Ghost’ have enjoyed over a year of marital relations.
“Combining this with what Lady Wan said in public today…
“When she married Wan Yutang, but he was devoted to another, so he showed her no marital affection.
“Throughout the year or more they have been married, they have not consummated.
“With this, isn’t the truth emerging?
“Over a year after Lady Wan and the real Wan Yutang got married, certain unexpected events transpired.
“This led to a case of one replacing another; not only was the real Wan Yutang thrown into a secret place called the Endless Prison to be imprisoned.
“But he also took possession of Lady Wan.
“Both reached an agreement; she recognizes you as Wan Yutang, and you allow her, the Great Hall Master’s wife, to continue her original status.
“After all… what Lady Wan wants has never been simply to be Wan Yutang’s wife.
“What she desires is to be the wife of the Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall.
“As for whether this Great Hall Master is called Wan Yutang or Qian Yutang, why would she care?”
Bei Changzhi was left completely dumbfounded:
“How can this be?
“This is impossible…
“He is obviously the Great Hall Master.
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, you… you can’t just slander people like that!”
Su Mo gently shook his head, glanced at ’Wan Yutang’:
“Don’t want to talk yet?”
“Heh…”
’Wan Yutang’ shook his head:
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, babbling nonsense, the things you say are utterly absurd, yet not knowing what else Wan should say?”
“Hmm…”
Su Mo nodded: “Speaking of which, this face must indeed be Wan Yutang’s face, wearing another’s face in such a position, occupying it for so many years indeed hasn’t been easy.
“I am a bit curious, where did you acquire this techniques of facial transformation?”
While talking, Su Mo reached out to wipe the cheek of ’Wan Yutang’, only to find that his skin was indeed real.
There was no human skin mask on his face.
Su Mo frowned slightly, logically, this person should not possess the martial arts of Eternal Night Valley.
Hence, it should not involve the human skin trick of peeling off the skin.
But just to be safe, Su Mo still pointed out several acupoints on his body, testing him repeatedly.
Back in Tianqu City, when Wan Cangxin unveiled the human skin trick of ’Wan Cangxin’, it involved using Sword Qi to break the acupoints, undoing the crucial acupoints that combined the human skin trick with the human body.
As long as these acupoints are broken, the human skin trick naturally collapses.
Since Su Mo was present that day, he would certainly not miss out on this technique.
After all, this ability is always good to have just in case.
Thus, his application today was not the slightest bit clumsy.
But even after performing the method, when Su Mo reached out to grab again, what he touched was still real skin and flesh, not someone else’s human skin.
“…I already said, I am… I am Wan Yutang!”
’Wan Yutang’ looked up at Su Mo, this series of actions caused him substantial harm.
Thus, his face turned somewhat pale, grimaced with a smile:
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, what trick are you playing now?”
“Brilliant.”
Su Mo couldn’t help but exclaim: “I sincerely seek guidance, Great Hall Master, what exactly did you use to change yourself into this appearance?”
“I… I really haven’t used any, any means, I am Wan Yutang… Wan Yutang, that’s me!”
’Wan Yutang’ looked up indignantly, his face full of the anger of being wronged.
Seeing this, Ji Feiyang couldn’t help but somewhat doubt:
“Did we really make a mistake?”
Yang Yizhi, however, gently shook his head, saying to Su Mo:
“Mo’er, just take action directly.
“Those who achieve great things always have hearts as hard as iron, even given the means they might not tell the truth, let alone when not yet acted upon.”
“Alright.”
Su Mo sighed: “The Great Hall Master is no ordinary person, if it weren’t absolutely necessary, I truly wouldn’t want to apply such means on you.
“To be frank, I once had an encounter with Master Hongyun of Hongyun Temple, who guided me through some martial arts of the Suffering People Scripture.
“Later, Master Hongyun even passed on the complete secret book of this martial art to me.
“After studying it, I had some revelations and combined it with my Pure Yang Inner Power…
“In the Suffering People Scripture and human suffering, I added the searing of Pure Yang Inner Power.
“After I mastered this technique, I have never applied it, I assume, it must be quite agonizing.
“Today, I invite the Great Hall Master to correct me, to see if this little technique of mine can still be considered worthy.”
