Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 483 - 228 Who Are You?_4Chapter 483: Chapter 228 Who Are You?_4
“The person who killed the fake Wan Cangxin that night, was me!”
“Impossible!”
Su Mo asserted, “If that were the case, the subsequent events would not have occurred.
“The Sect Leader of the Huayang Sect was pierced through the heart with a sword, an incident that caused a great uproar.
“The disciples of the Huayang Sect even went so far as to threaten suicide to further spread the news.
“And you… took the opportunity to place all the blame on the already deceased ’Senior Brother.’
“Afterward, Guyun Sect Xu Zhou, Qingshan Sect Ximen Yuan, and Unpredictable Finger Hu Dingming were successively attacked by this ’Senior Brother.’
“Every time it’s claimed that the assailant used the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword.
“The incidents with Xu Zhou and Ximen Yuan cleared your name of suspicion in this matter.
“The case of Hu Dingming even more solidly confirmed the ’Senior Brother’s’ identity.
“All of the affairs were tightly linked to this ’Senior Brother.’
“Because, aside from you, there is only this Senior Brother who is known to wield the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword.
“But they are all wrong about one thing…
“In this Tianqu City, you aren’t the only one capable of wielding the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword.
“The Wan Cangxin who died that night in the dense forest outside the city could use the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword too.
“And behind all this, could there be a third or even a fourth fake Wan Cangxin?
“If all of you can use the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword,
“Why couldn’t you collaborate in staging a grand drama?
“To push all the conspiracy onto a knight who’s already dead, thereby cleansing your sect’s reputation.”
As he said this, he gently shook his head:
“If someone impersonates me, indiscriminately killing others, and tarnishes the reputation of a deceased senior brother,
“I cannot tolerate it.
“Even at the cost of my life, I must make you pay the price.
“This is what you’ve been wanting.
“You never intended to kill those people; therefore, their lives don’t matter to you at all.
“All you’ve done is to lure out the real Wan Cangxin,
“To kill him before everyone’s eyes!
“In this way, you can rest easy. Continue being Wan Cangxin, continue your Tianqu Sword, and continue to be famous in the Martial Arts world!
“If you truly are Wan Cangxin, and all of this conspiracy is targeted at you, then it would never serve to clear your suspicion; it would only lead you to an irreversible doom.”
Wan Cangxin quietly listened to this and couldn’t help but applaud:
“Wonderful, Su, the Chief of the Escort’s imagination is indeed fascinating.”
Su Mo sighed, “After all this, you still won’t admit it?”
“What do you want me, Wan Cangxin, to admit?”
Wan Cangxin smiled, “Even the person tonight has never said that he is Wan Cangxin. If he were, why wouldn’t he just admit it?
“Why wouldn’t he acknowledge it?
“Lord Su, in my presence, you’ve talked incessantly, saying so much…
“But where is the evidence?
“Lord Su… you can’t tarnish someone’s reputation with baseless accusations.”
Su Mo smiled faintly, “Do you know that sometimes, I really don’t need evidence.”
“You!”
Wan Cangxin’s face changed.
He had witnessed Su Mo’s martial arts; the Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword technique of tonight held no ground in front of him.
If Su Mo unleashed his killing intent, he himself would hardly be able to resist.
He took a deep breath and smiled, “Aren’t you curious, Su, why I invited you for a drink tonight?”
“Hm?”
Su Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, then suddenly his expression changed.
“Lord Su is skilled in martial arts; that person’s Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Sword has reached such a level, I truly have no assurance of victory.”
“I never expected to be pierced through by a single sword strike from Su, the Chief of the Escort.
“Only the last palm strike was too obvious. Was it because you suspected that the man was the real Wan Cangxin, that you deliberately let him go?
“What a pity, after all, he was seriously injured. I wonder where he ended up dying.
“Of course, there are things that even I cannot do perfectly, things that cannot be done in front of everyone. However, doing them covertly might not be a bad idea.
“Hmm, Su, the Chief of the Escort, now has two choices.
“The first is to kill me before you leave.
“But, killing me for no reason could tarnish Su, the Chief of the Escort’s reputation…”
He said this much and then lightly shook his head: “Of course, there’s a second option.
“To find a way to save the person who Su, the Chief of the Escort truly believes to be Wan Cangxin. To have this person stand in front of everyone and prove their identity!
“At that time, my lies will be easily exposed, won’t that be better?
“Of course, to accomplish this, there must be two prerequisites.
“First, the Wan Cangxin in the heart of Su, the Chief of the Escort, must still be alive to wait for Su, the Chief of the Escort’s arrival.
“Second, Su, the Chief of the Escort must know where he is!
“However, forgive my frankness, during the time that Su, the Chief of the Escort and I have been drinking and chatting here, that person’s body is probably already cold.”
Wan Cangxin gently shook his head, the smile at the corner of his mouth quite pleased with himself.
He watched Su Mo, seemingly curious about Su Mo’s decision.
Su Mo stood up, giving Wan Cangxin a final look:
“Nice trick, indeed I miscalculated.
“Your head can stay on your neck for now.
“Just wait for me to come back and claim it!”
After saying this, with a tip of his toe, he had already left the tavern.
As soon as Su Mo had left, Wan Cangxin let out a breath of relief, took an ingot of silver from his bosom, and placed it on the table.
Then he leaped up and fled, reaching Penglai Inn in a moment.
He dipped the brush in ink and penned a letter.
It read:
Wan Cangxin’s matter has been discovered by Su Mo.
However, he remains oblivious to our schemes, he is not a concern for now.
The Heavenly Spring Twelve Swords may need to be abandoned, please Your Majesty decide!
After finishing the letter, he rolled it up into a bamboo tube and then brought over a jet-black carrier pigeon, tying the tube to the pigeon’s leg.
Only then did he push the window open, releasing the pigeon with a flick of his hand.
That black pigeon, which seemed to be some kind of rare breed, merged into the darkness, almost invisible.
Its speed was unimaginably fast.
And as the pigeon flew over the lights of countless homes in Tianqu City, a surge of wind suddenly shot towards it.
The pigeon trembled all over, falling from mid-air, only to be caught by a hand.
The person took one glance at the letter, exhaled lightly, and smiled slightly:
“Not a concern for now… It seems that my performance was quite good.”
He placed the letter back into the bamboo tube and gave it a shake. The pigeon did not move. He shook it again, and still, the pigeon stayed motionless.
“Come on…”
Su Mo’s mouth twitched: “I didn’t even put much force into my Finger Flicking Technique, don’t you play dead and try to scam me.”
After saying that, he threw it into the air. At this height, if the pigeon remained motionless, it would only fall to its death.
As expected, after being released, the pigeon flapped its wings slightly and hovered over Su Mo’s head twice, as if harboring some ill intent.
Su Mo’s expression darkened, his finger poised to flick.
The pigeon, as if understanding the danger, glared fiercely at Su Mo and then took off, not daring to hover at a low altitude again.
In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared.
“Are all the carrier pigeons from Eternal Night Valley this fickle?”
Su Mo’s mouth twitched again, he turned his head and glanced in the direction of Penglai Inn, then slightly smiled.
Without further ado, he leaped into the air and headed straight for the east without any hesitation.
