Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning - Chapter 1155 452: Request for Audience_2

Ximen Huai’s mind was entirely focused on Shangguan Jingjing, and now he trusted Su Mo immensely, believing that he must have been out of his mind earlier; otherwise, how could he have misunderstood that a peerless figure like Su Mo would snatch love with a horizontal sword?

Therefore, he answered Su Mo’s questions without hesitation.

As they traveled, Su Mo gained a deeper understanding of the Ximen Family.

He learned that their family-transmitted Jade Crown Quenching Heart Scripture had long become unrecognizable compared to its original form.

However, the core mental method had always been in the hands of the main family.

Although Ximen Xiong was impressive, what he practiced was martial arts derived from it.

Although it was also called the Jade Crown Quenching Heart Scripture, its power was worlds apart.

Currently, in the entire Ximen Family, only Ximen Zhengyan and Ximen Huai possessed the most authentic Jade Crown Quenching Heart Scripture.

And these words made Su Mo realize that there might be a reason Seven Killings Hall wanted to capture Ximen Huai.

They might want the Sea Map to find the inheritance site, which was likely the Nanhai Cuixin Temple.

Was the secret because… only Ximen Huai, having practiced the Jade Crown Quenching Heart Scripture, could find it?

However, this posed some confusion.

If this was truly the case, why did the Ximen Family’s several visits end in failure?

After a brief reflection, the thought settled in his mind.

Arriving at their lodging, Su Mo casually pushed open the courtyard gate and immediately heard the wind howling inside the courtyard. Yang Xiaoyun was brandishing a Dragon Abyss Spear, with Powerful Energy sweeping in all directions.

Upon entering and seeing Su Mo, she didn’t even think before shouting:

“Watch out!”

As the words fell, the sound of the Dragon Roar rose continuously, the spear tip enveloped in dragon-shaped True Qi, whistling onwards.

Before the spear arrived, the wind came first. Ximen Huai felt dazed, almost unable to open his eyes.

Narrowing them slightly, he only felt the vast expanse of the world around him, clouds rolling and unrolling, and a mighty dragon roaring to the heavens, reaching out with claws.

Its awe-inspiring might made it impossible to muster any thought of resistance.

What kind of spear technique was this?

What kind of martial arts was this?

Ximen Huai was terrified in his heart. Would he die at this very step before even seeing Shangguan Jingjing?

However, the next moment, a gust of wind suddenly dispersed,

directly blowing Ximen Huai back, while Su Mo’s laughter reached his ears:

“Good move!”

Good where?

Ximen Huai was bewildered, struggling to open one eye and saw Su Mo reaching out to grab at Yang Xiaoyun’s spearhead.

The move was subtle and extraordinary but momentarily unable to catch the spearhead.

The two of them were fighting at such speed that in the blink of an eye, over a dozen rounds had passed.

The moves they used were all fierce and ruthless.

Seeing this, Ximen Huai was secretly alarmed:

“Do these two have a grudge against each other?”

He considered himself quite skilled among the younger generation.

But meeting Su Mo, he felt instantly overshadowed.

Now it seemed that this young woman was also far superior to him.

Who… who are these people?

The mere gusts of their exchange, he dared not intervene, for fear of instantaneous death.

Yet Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun seemed to share a tacit understanding, fighting fiercely, then each executing a move before leaping back.

After settling momentarily, Su Mo then smiled and said:

“Lady, so clever, exceptional talent, and your martial arts have improved.”

“Hmph.”

Yang Xiaoyun rolled her eyes at Su Mo:

“All you do is talk sweet to coax me, did you even use ten percent of your power just now?”

“Far more!”

Su Mo hurriedly shook his head.

“Then how much did you use?”

Yang Xiaoyun immediately pursued.

Su Mo was momentarily speechless, his own wife was wonderful in every way, except for her unyielding competitiveness.

He then gestured with his hand:

“Eighty percent.”

“As if I’d believe you.”

Yang Xiaoyun huffed coquettishly: “I didn’t even use eighty percent of my power!”

“Ahem…”

Su Mo promptly coughed: “By the way, there are guests here, lady.”

Yang Xiaoyun glanced at the utterly bewildered Ximen Huai at the door.

The couple’s leisurely talk of how much power they used left Ximen Huai questioning his very existence.

So all this time, were they just sparring?

Is this what sparring looks like?

It seemed like they had some deep-seated grudge, only to reveal… they were spouses?

At the same time, Ximen Huai recalled Su Mo’s previous praise of Ximen Xiong’s martial arts.

He now found those words unbearable to look upon.

Ximen Huai knew well how capable Ximen Xiong was.

He likely wasn’t even fit to carry Su Mo’s shoes.

Yet Su Mo praised him sincerely, making Ximen Huai believe it.

Such a humble person truly was rare in the world, which only increased Ximen Huai’s admiration.

At this moment, Yang Xiaoyun spoke:

“Ah, you must be the Ximen family’s young master, Miss Shangguan rested late last night and hasn’t woken up yet.

“If you wish to see her, please sit in the courtyard for a moment.”

“Yes, thank you, sister-in-law.”

Ximen Huai immediately cupped his hands in salute.

Yang Xiaoyun look puzzledly at Su Mo, sensing the drastic change in this person in just a day?

Su Mo gently shook his head:

“Young people are prone to mistakes, and those who love beauty are drawn to the young.

“When small things weigh heavily, we shouldn’t immediately condemn them…

“Opportunities should still be given when needed.

“Besides, even if things were to end, it should be spoken clearly face-to-face.”

“Yes.”

Yang Xiaoyun nodded: “Husband, you are quite right.”
