Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning

Chapter 159: Chapter 121 Please Come In_2

Therefore, I have an unkind request to make. If Liu Mo… If this person hasn’t done anything irredeemable, and if he had entered the Heavenly Blade Sect and was captured, could I implore Su, the Chief of the Escort, to try and save him?

“Of course, I’m aware that this request may be too demanding, and I can only hope that without picking a quarrel with the Heavenly Blade Sect, if it’s within your power, please do not hesitate to lend a helping hand.”

After saying so, he deeply bowed.

Su Mo shook his head slightly, helping him up: “Shopkeeper Cheng, there is no need for such formalities. Chief Liu has traveled with me and we’ve developed a rapport. I wouldn’t abandon him so easily. However, as of now, his whereabouts are still unknown, and it may not be as you suspect.

“I will wait here for him for three days. If he does not return after three days, then I will make further plans.”

He didn’t make any firm promises. Agreeing too readily could backfire if it turns out that the Heavenly Blade Sect and Liu Mo have irreconcilable conflicts that lead to violence, leaving no room for him to intervene.

It would surely be a fight to the death.

On the other hand, if Liu Mo returns tomorrow, then this matter will naturally be resolved.

Shopkeeper Cheng nodded repeatedly, appreciating Su Mo’s words. With this, the business between the escort agency and Wanxin Trading Company had come to an end, and the responsibility to rescue was not on Su Mo.

He was overflowing with gratitude.

After seeing off Shopkeeper Cheng, Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged a glance, both with a hint of complexity in their eyes.

“How has trouble arisen so unexpectedly?”

Yang Xiaoyun was somewhat helpless: “Liu Mo has been following orders and acting properly throughout our journey; to think that such an incident would occur in the end. Wei Ziyi told us he’s not simple, and we didn’t notice anything along the way. Only now do we see, he truly is extraordinary.”

Su Mo smiled: “Alright, don’t think too much about it. We don’t understand the full story. Besides, we are not involved with the Heavenly Blade Sect. If there are indeed issues, they are between Liu Mo and them.

“We shall stay here for three days. If Liu Mo does not return, then we’ll pay a visit to the Heavenly Blade Sect. Now that we are at the Five Directions Gathering, it won’t be an unjustified visit.

“If there are any grudges beyond resolution, it is not our place to intervene. We should simply go back to our own affairs.

“But leaving now wouldn’t sit right.”

“Mm.”

Yang Xiaoyun nodded.

As their scouts gradually returned, there was still no trace of Liu Mo.

He had departed in the middle of the night when it was quiet, and hardly anyone had seen him.

So naturally, there was no information to be found.

The result: they could only wait.

In fact… Su Mo and the others didn’t wait for three days.

Early the next morning, someone came looking for them.

The visitors were several young men.

With cold expressions as if someone owed them money, swords hanging at their waists, they remained silent, as though ready to draw their weapons at any disagreement.

Disciples of the Heavenly Blade Sect!

The leader was a young man, his gaze indifferent, he clasped his fists in greeting:

“Heavenly Blade Sect’s Feng Baichuan pays his respects to Su, the Chief of the Escort!”

“Pleasure to meet you, Brother Feng. May I ask what brings the esteemed disciples of the Heavenly Blade Sect here?”

Feng Baichuan replied coldly: “I won’t hide it; last night someone was lurking around the Heavenly Blade Sect, near Grandmaster Tong’s residence, and was detained by our patrolling disciples. After checking his possessions, we identified the person as Liu Mo, the leader of Wanxin Trading Company’s Guard Team!”

Su Mo’s expression twitched slightly—so the bastard actually went to the Heavenly Blade Sect?

And got caught?

Wasn’t it said that his mace techniques were formidable?

How could he be captured so easily?

These thoughts stayed within, as Su Mo feigned surprise:

“What? Chief Liu actually went to the Heavenly Blade Sect? Truth be told, his whereabouts have been unknown since last night. We searched for him yesterday without any success. I didn’t expect him to have the audacity to be reckless in the Heavenly Blade Sect.”

Feng Baichuan’s expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were stern: “So even Su, the Chief of the Escort, was unaware. Hmm, may I inquire if you are currently available to accompany us to the Heavenly Blade Sect?”

Su Mo raised his eyebrows slightly. What was this implication?

With that stern face, was he suggesting taking Su Mo to the Heavenly Blade Sect for a harsh interrogation?

Su Mo was about to scoff when he heard Feng Baichuan continue, “When this individual was discovered, he did not resist arrest. We cannot discern his motives, and despite our questioning, he has kept silent. However, it seems he bears no malice towards the Heavenly Blade Sect, and during his visit to Grandmaster Tong’s residence, he showed no disrespect or destructive intent. There appears to be an issue he is reluctant to speak of. The Heavenly Blade Sect is currently in a time of trouble, and while we are inclined to release him, we also worry he might again infiltrate our sect at night… Thus, we can only come here to ask Su to take him back, to prevent further turmoil.”

“…”

Su Mo was momentarily speechless, then frowned again.

Grandmaster Tong… could it really be Endless Blade Tong Yun?

Liu Mo said he had a grudge against someone from the Heavenly Blade Sect—it must be him.

So, after Shopkeeper Cheng mentioned last night that Tong Yun had disappeared, he must have rushed to the Heavenly Blade Sect in the middle of the night to investigate, right?

But this man did not fight back and allowed himself to be captured by the Heavenly Blade Sect people.
