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

Chapter 255: Chapter 153 Old Times_2

“If you don’t start talking, I’ll have to apply the Fengshi acupoint on you again, and you’ll truly understand what ’a fate worse than death’ means.”

The scar-faced brute was startled: “You… you’ve been through it before?”

“None of your business!”

Fu Han Yuan’s mood flared instantly as he flicked his sleeve and let out a cold huff.

“…”

It was you who started talking first!!

The scar-faced man felt great injustice in his heart, but he dared not cry foul.

He took a deep breath: “You… you… want to ask about what Endless Blade Tong Yun had us do over twenty years ago?”

Despite the intense pain just now, the Suffering People Scripture would not let one’s mind become clouded under suffering.

On the contrary, it made one’s mind all the clearer.

Under such circumstances, he had overheard the entire conversation between Su Mo and the others.

He took another deep breath: “Heh, alright, I will tell you… But, what I say, you might not believe.”

“Oh?”

Liu Mo was taken aback but nodded and said: “Just speak. Whether it’s true or false, we can discern for ourselves.”

“Alright!”

The scar-faced man took a deep breath and said: “Endless Blade Tong Yun… Heh, such a great reputation. A master of the Heavenly Blade Sect, at the height of his power. A lofty figure on the Righteous Path… Heh, truth be told, I suspect that his origins are far less simple than you imaged…

“That person suddenly came to us brothers back then, his martial arts were formidable, so impressive!”

A flicker of fear crossed the brute’s eyes.

It seemed he was recalling some terrible events from the past.

But the next moment, he made a shocking statement: “But he stated his purpose, which was to have us… rob an escort!”

Rob an escort!?

Su Mo’s brow slightly raised. As someone who runs an escort agency, he was naturally very concerned about such matters.

Yang Xiaoyun also unconsciously tightened her grip on the Dragon Abyss Spear.

“What escort?”

Liu Mo promptly inquired.

“That thing…”

The scar-faced man frowned: “It’s said to be a musical score.”

“…”

Both Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun felt a jolt in their hearts.

A musical score!?

At the Five Directions Gathering, when Li Siyun had approached them, he also referred to the Mandarin Duck List as just a musical score.

Now this scar-faced man was saying, Tong Yun had had them rob an escort in the past, and it was for a musical score too?

Could it be… the Mandarin Duck List?

Although both were shaken, they did not let their thoughts show on their faces.

They listened quietly as if the matter had nothing to do with them.

Liu Mo was stunned: “Tong Yun had you rob a musical score?”

As he said this, he looked towards Feng Baichuan.

Feng Baichuan was also confused and perplexed, which only made his gaze grow colder.

“Quit beating around the bush, speak up already, to save us the trouble of wild guesses.”

Fu Han Yuan roared angrily.

“Hmph!”

The scar-faced man took a deep breath: “So be it. Heh, back then Tong Yun didn’t use that name with us.

“He created an alias for himself and didn’t speak directly after finding us.

“But first, he defeated us brothers to the ground. The Blade Technique he used was like that of a demon or ghost, terribly fierce.

“Our brothers had just entered the Jianghu for a few years then, our skills nowhere near what they are now.

“Who had ever seen such a sinister and fierce Blade Technique before?

“In Jianghu, if you’re not an opponent, you can only kneel and beg for mercy.

“However, he told us that he did not come to kill but needed our help in doing something.

“His words are still ringing in my ears to this day. He said: ’In seven days, an escort agency will pass by the foot of Huai Mountain. The escort carts will hoist a flag with the word Ziyang written on it. Then, you will rob the escort. Look for a musical score among the items carried with the carts. Succeed, and your lives will be spared. Should any refuse, the blade will take your heads, and you have been warned!’”

With these words, Liu Mo and the others were profoundly shocked.

This scar-faced man was still unaware that Su Mo is now the Chief of Ziyang Escort Agency.

When Su Mo had just taken over the agency, the sleeves of his manner still bore the two characters of Ziyang.

But after Yang Xiaoyun took over as the head, the attire of Ziyang Escort Agency was changed.

The word Ziyang on the sleeves was removed, and until now, the scar-faced man remained oblivious to the origins of Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun.

Su Mo remained calm and simply asked:

“Then what?”

“At the time, we brothers had no other choice.

“Since that man was elusive and highly skilled in martial arts, and since he was not our match, we could only obey his orders.

“Therefore, after questioning that man extensively about Ziyang Escort Agency, we got to know… it was an agency founded by the former Chief of Ziyang Sect after leaving the sect.

“The agency had deep roots, surely not comparable to an ordinary escort agency.

“Even after the former Chief Su passed away, his descendants and disciples were still respected as members of Ziyang Sect.

“The relationship between the agency and Ziyang Sect was so profound that it was frightening.

“Although we had to take on this task due to that man’s martial prowess, robbing Ziyang Escort at the base of Huai Mountain, whether successful or not, was tantamount to courting death.

“Therefore, after some cunning conversation, we managed to find out his name for future reference.

“After discussing it among ourselves, we decided to take on the business.

“If Ziyang Escort turned out to be too formidable and we were not a match, then we could simply feign death or kneel and beg for mercy.”
