Chapter 440: Chapter 214 Placement_3

But he shook his head lightly: “However, this person’s cunning is shallow and laughable. I could tell without any tricks… he is under the Night Lord.”

“You!”

As soon as these words came out, the old man’s face suddenly changed.

Duan Song turned around abruptly upon hearing this.

Su Mo suddenly realized:

“It really is.”

“No!”

The old man blurted out.

However, after saying it, he regretted it.

By denying it this way, Su Mo would surely know that he really was under the Night Lord.

Duan Song couldn’t help but marvel: “Were you tricking him?”

“What else?”

Su Mo smiled: “However, these words were not said casually, but because other things had happened, which led to such conjecture.”

“Let’s hear it!”

Duan Song eagerly asked.

Su Mo thought for a moment and then recounted the events he had experienced in detail.

The E Tao Sect secretly infiltrated the Southwest, and the Eternal Night Valley tried to control the riverfront waterways.

There were people suspected of being from the Demon Sect disguised as the Wusheng Hall’s members, secretly plotting against the Phoenix Alliance.

This series of seemingly unrelated matters almost formed a line in Su Mo’s eyes.

But whether the bottom line was Eternal Night Valley, Su Mo was not sure.

Especially the person from the E Tao Sect he encountered last time, he could not determine which family of the Dongcheng Demon Sect he was from.

Hence, the statement earlier.

In short, it was to trick him to see if he could verify the information.

Unexpectedly, it really worked.

Thus, the previous events already had some confirmation.

The riverfront incident was manipulated by the Eternal Night Valley, and the people from the E Tao Sect going to the Southwest to plot a major event also originated from the Eternal Night Valley.

And this event was somehow subtly connected to the ’big shot’ from the Wusheng Hall secretly coordinating people’s intrusion into the Phoenix Alliance territory with sinister intentions.

Su Mo now could basically conclude that all this originated from the handiwork of the Night Lord.

However, what exactly the Night Lord intended to do was indeed a subject of great curiosity.

He dealt with the Seven Great Sects in Tianqu City on one hand.

On the other hand, he looked towards the Southwest, stepping into the Eastern Wilderness.

This person seemed to be playing a very big chess game.

Of course, Su Mo couldn’t mention all of this to Duan Song, especially things about the Wusheng Hall and the Phoenix Alliance that Su Mo had not touched upon.

This part of the matter hadn’t been verified yet; speaking of it prematurely might lead to misconceptions, which could be detrimental in the future.

After Su Mo finished speaking, Duan Song pondered for a moment, as if he had made some decision, then approached the old man and grabbed his foot.

The old man was shocked: “What are you doing?”

“Speak if you want to speak… otherwise, you shall see the methods of the Ziyang Sect!”

Duan Song’s expression was solemn, but his tone was rather fierce.

“…”

The old man was speechless, struggling to find words, but Duan Song had already yanked off his boot.

The next instant, a stench struck them.

Duan Song’s face turned pale on the spot, and he instinctively stepped back two or three steps, looking at Su Mo:

“Is this torturing him, or torturing me?

“How could you bear to do this?”

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, “I generally don’t do this.”

“… Then how do you do it?”

Duan Song was taken aback.

Su Mo smiled, approached the old man’s side.

And besides Fu Han Yuan, no one knew what he planned to do.

Only Fu Han Yuan, even before Su Mo took action, had already grimaced in anticipation.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Hu Sandao looked at Fu Han Yuan with some surprise.

Fu Han Yuan was about to answer when another voice asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

It was the Scar-faced Strange Guest.

This person was particularly fond of Hu Sandao and mimicked his every move daily.

Two consecutive questions almost made Fu Han Yuan forget how to respond.

Just when he was ignoring the matter, a sudden scream erupted.

It was the old man who had been punctured by Su Mo at the Yutang Acupoint.

This took the old man completely by surprise.

He knew Su Mo’s approach meant nothing good, but he had not expected such pain?

A scream as he collapsed to the ground, his face turned pale, he writhed on the ground from the pain, convulsing all over.

Su Mo turned back and smilingly said to Duan Song, “I usually do it this way.”

“…”

Duan Song was stunned: “And I thought you would cover your nose… what kind of methods are these?”

“Call me Master Duan.”

Duan Song interrupted him: “Your father was my fellow disciple, calling me ’Master Duan’ won’t be a loss for you.”

“… Master Duan, have you heard of the Suffering People Scripture?”

“Demon Monk Hong Ye!?”

Duan Song blurted out, but immediately shook his head: “No, it’s Master Hong Ye! You… you actually know this martial arts?”

“Yes.”

Su Mo nodded, ignoring the old man, and just casually sat down:

“Let him suffer for a while. Speaking of which, Master Hong Ye really is a great monk. I once had the fortune to meet him, and upon our first meeting, he taught me the methods of the Suffering People Scripture.”

“There really is such a thing.”

Duan Song was quite envious for a moment, but after sniffing again and then looking at the extremely unpleasant sight of the old man’s feet:

“So, the method you just mentioned, you haven’t used it yourself?”

“I have the Suffering People Scripture, what use would I have for it?”

“…”

Duan Song was momentarily speechless.

Su Mo puzzled, “Master Duan, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I just suddenly think that there’s a folk saying that’s really good.”

“What saying?”

“Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, a rat’s son will learn to dig holes…

“You truly are Su Tianyang’s son indeed!”

Duan Song looked at Su Mo, his expression complicated, unsure whether he felt reassured or apprehensive.

Su Mo speechlessly watched as Wei Ziyi and the young girl came around from behind the main hall.

The young girl seemed quite pleased, her face filled with joy.

Wei Ziyi noticed Su Mo and stopped talking momentarily before saying:

“Senior Duan, my coming here is to deliver a message from my Master.

“I expected I would have to go to the Ziyang Sect to deliver this letter, but unexpectedly, I met you halfway.”

“Deliver a message?”

Duan Song was stunned, his ears twitched, and then in a tone full of disbelief, he asked:

“To me?”
