Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning - Chapter 1133 445: Inside Xiuyun Pavilion
Su Mo’s words instantly piqued the interest of Yang Xiaoyun and the others.
Thinking carefully, Su Mo’s words do seem reasonable.
The Qi Family on Tianqi Island holds high status and power, with influence over dozens of islands, and is certainly filled with masters.
The Nanhai Alliance, as one of the three major forces of the South Sea, is even more extraordinary.
Under such circumstances, if the Qi Family truly seeks Su Mo’s help,
then the opponent must be extraordinary.
Suddenly, Yang Xiaoyun had a thought and glanced at Su Mo:
“Husband…”
“Hmm?”
Su Mo looked at Yang Xiaoyun: “Wife, just speak your mind.”
“I suddenly remembered that Qixue Sword Slave.”
Yang Xiaoyun said softly, “The person’s whereabouts have been obscure, but there are always rumors of bloody crimes circulating.
“And it seems to always be not far from us…
“Until we rushed with all our might, the rumors gradually disappeared.
“Do you think… that Qixue Sword Slave might be heading here?”
Wei Ziyi frowned upon hearing this:
“Could it be that the Qi Family did something that enraged both heaven and man?
“Qixue Sword Slave, forever a slave to the sword.
“To willingly be a sword slave just to seek revenge on the Qi Family, what kind of deep hatred is this?”
“Ziyi, don’t be anxious.”
Yang Xiaoyun quickly said, “I’m just speculating.”
Su Mo also nodded: “In the end, the idea of helping is just my wishful thinking.
“It’s indeed too early to jump to conclusions at this point.
“Everything will only become clear once we arrive at the Qi Family…”
“Hmm.”
Wei Ziyi nodded slightly, but her brows remained gently furrowed.
Her feelings about the Qi Family are far more complex than those of Su Mo and the rest.
In terms of bloodline, Qi Family Patriarch Qi Dingtian is her maternal grandfather.
Even having never met him, Wei Ziyi can’t help but feel a bit of admiration for him.
But there’s also some unease.
Who knows what kind of person this grandfather is?
Now, although Yang Xiaoyun merely speculated, if Qi Dingtian indeed drove someone to be a sword slave just to seek such deep revenge, Wei Ziyi can’t help but doubt whether he really did something so outrageous?
For a moment, her mind was truly complicated to the extreme.
But Su Mo was right, there’s no benefit in overthinking things now.
We still need to wait until we reach the Qi Family before making any judgments.
Long talk for those with much to say, short for those with little to say.
The carriage jolted and bumped along, and in just half an hour, they arrived at the Qi Family’s gates.
Upon entering the city, Su Mo had lifted the curtain and looked out at Tianqi City.
The streets were orderly and bustling, with merchants, civilians, and Jianghu people coming and going.
Following the road along the street, they entered the city center, reaching a vast mansion.
From a distance, it seemed like a city within a city.
The grand gate could accommodate three carriages entering and exiting side by side, with a plaque hanging high above bearing the words: Qi Mansion!
In front of the gate were Qi Family guards on duty, and just a quick glance revealed more than a dozen guards.
Wang Shengyuan called to open the gate, remaining on horseback as he led the carriage inside.
Within the mansion, there were patrols at times.
Security was extremely tight.
After entering through the main gate, the roads inside were still wide.
Wang Shengyuan led Su Mo and the others to a large courtyard and stopped the carriage.
He dismounted first, inviting Su Mo and the others to get down, then said with a smile:
“Hero Su, we’ve arrived.
“Let me arrange accommodations for you all first.”
“No rush.”
Su Mo smiled, “Let’s pay our respects to your Family Head first.”
Wang Shengyuan nodded:
“Very well, in that case, please follow me.”
He led the way first, and Su Mo and the others followed behind.
Along the way, the Qi Mansion proved to be truly vast and majestic, with its layout impeccably crafted.
Apart from the guards, there were many people in black robes with a ‘Qi’ character embroidered on their chests.
Some were in neat formations, practicing martial arts on the training ground, some reading books in the shade, and others in pairs sparring. Although their moves were immature, they were extremely skillful.
Su Mo casually asked:
“Brother Wang, what is this?”
“Ah, Hero Su might not know,”
Wang Shengyuan replied with a smile, “Our Qi Family, although a family, is actually also a Sect.
“Our Family Head belongs to the Nanhai Alliance’s Third Elder.
“Our family’s Martial Arts are not inherited from the Nanhai Alliance.
“Our ancestors established themselves here, founding the Qi Family enterprise.
“The martial arts within the family were initially not to be shared outside.
“However…”
He paused slightly before continuing:
“At that time, the Da Xuan Dynasty had collapsed, and the world was in turmoil.
“Some used martial arts to wreak havoc and cause countless deaths in Nanhai.
“Ordinary people without martial arts for self-defense inevitably became victims.
“Finally, the Third Generation Ancestor, after much pain and reflection, decided to overturn the old rules and teach the family’s Martial Arts to others.
“Moreover, he created the Absolute Skills of [Mountain Rain Fist], [Feihua Palm], and [Unpredictable Finger], widely teaching them to disciples.
“With the aspiration to quell the chaos in Nanhai.
“In the following decade or so, our Qi Family disciples became masters and traveled all corners of the South Sea.
“We played a significant role in the current division of the South Sea.
“However, the Third Generation Ancestor did not seek fame.
“After the affairs were settled, he returned to Tianqi Island… and these matters gradually became unknown.
“The masters who left the Qi Family back then also each returned to seclusion, vanished, and were no longer seen in Jianghu.”
“So, there is such a story behind all this.”
