Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning - Chapter 1201 467: Mo Shuang_3
“Hmm…”
Su Mo pondered for a moment, glanced at Elder Du’s wife again, then suddenly smiled:
“Speaking of which, Madam, you heard what Xiao He and I said just now.
“If I truly were the Left Sage of the Dragon King Hall, would Madam still be willing to repay with this item?”
“Hmm…”
Elder Du’s wife replied with a smile:
“If that’s the case, then Benefactor’s plan will be fully realized.”
“Indeed.”
Su Mo nodded repeatedly.
As they exchanged a smile, Elder Du’s wife lightly touched the coffin lid with her hand:
“I’m sorry… You’ve just left, and I’m already having a pleasant conversation with this young hero.
“If you were around, you’d surely be so angry you’d bite a chicken leg.
“However, Benefactor is no ordinary person; I suppose you wouldn’t mind, right?”
She sighed softly, then said:
“If Benefactor truly were that Left Sage, even in death, he would never hand over the Fansheng Pill.
“More likely, he would destroy himself along with the Fansheng Pill.
“He is Elder Du; even if constrained, he can still achieve Jade and Stone Burning Together.
“I never doubted this.
“Moreover… I am one of the few in Jianghu who has seen the Left Sage with my own eyes.
“He is of similar age to me and wouldn’t die so easily, I imagine.
“As the Left Sage… Benefactor is still much younger.
“Lastly, if you truly were the Left Sage and came for Mo Shuang, there would be no reason to awaken me.
“Because within the secret chamber’s coffin, Mo Shuang has always been in my arms.
“You only needed to search a little to find her.
“With all these points, if I couldn’t make a judgment, then I wouldn’t deserve the title of Nanhai Alliance’s young lady.”
“It’s I who underestimated Madam.”
Su Mo slightly bowed with clasped hands, then, as he set his gaze back on Mo Shuang, he pondered slightly, looked up at Elder Du’s wife, and said with a smile:
“If Madam insists on giving me this item,
“then please, grant me one request.”
Wei Ziyi looked at Su Mo, seemingly in deep thought.
Elder Du’s wife was taken aback:
“What is it, Benefactor?”
“Since this island holds memories for both Madam and Elder Du,
“I suppose, even if I wish to take you away with this, Madam would be unwilling to leave?”
Su Mo spoke softly.
Elder Du’s wife smiled slightly: “Benefactor speaks correctly.”
Su Mo nodded:
“Then, if someone comes looking for this item…
“Madam can just tell them that it’s with me.”
“What?”
Elder Du’s wife was stunned, her expression changing slightly:
“You mean…”
Su Mo took another glance at Wei Ziyi, then said with a smile:
“This Hu Niu, though lively and energetic, still has trouble in her body yet solved.
“That man is, after all, your father.
“If the object he seeks is not with you, he likely wouldn’t be ruthless.
“I can just use this chance to meet him.
“To borrow an item…”
“But the one who comes might not be him…”
“No, it will definitely be him.”
Su Mo spoke softly: “Because there is something nearby that requires his personal involvement.”
“This…”
Elder Du’s wife knitted her brows tightly, her heart full of hesitation.
The ‘man’ Su Mo spoke of was naturally Gao Tianqi, the Nanhai Alliance Leader.
He was also the biological father of Elder Du’s wife.
Due to these familial ties, Elder Du’s wife understood Gao Tianqi very well.
He is a hero of Nanhai Alliance and never hesitates to achieve his goals by any means.
Even not listening to him, his own daughter might not escape death.
Zhang Fang and Yu Tong permanently stayed on Yusheng Island this time.
Logically, the next to act should be the Five Leaders.
But if Gao Tianqi had to come nearby, his personal involvement was almost ninety percent certain.
This… was also her chance.
Although Elder Du’s wife had promised Elder Du not to seek her own end,
if killed by another, it wouldn’t be breaking the promise.
But if, as Su Mo suggested, she spoke out about his matters, Gao Tianqi might not kill his unfilial daughter.
This made things extremely difficult for Elder Du’s wife.
If Su Mo’s action was just to protect herself,
then she might feign compliance.
But Su Mo wanted to use this to meet Gao Tianqi for another purpose…
If she didn’t agree, she might ruin Su Mo’s plans.
For a moment, she was in a dilemma.
She finally sighed deeply:
“Benefactor…
“I… I agree to your request.”
“Thank you, Madam.”
Su Mo said with a smile: “In that case, I’ll accept Mo Shuang.”
He looked up at the sky, chuckling softly:
“It’s getting late, and I still have important duties.
“I can’t stay on Yusheng Island for long…
“After this farewell, I’m afraid we may not meet again.
“I only hope for Madam’s health and well-being.
“I bid you goodbye.”
Wei Ziyi also clasped her hands, bidding farewell to Elder Du’s wife.
Elder Du’s wife sighed gently:
“Heading south from here, traveling along the coast will lead you to Tianqi Island.
“Benefactor, take care on your journey… I’m sorry I can’t see you off.”
“Madam, please stay, farewell.”
Su Mo bowed slightly, turned, and left with Wei Ziyi.
Watching Su Mo and Wei Ziyi, led by the maid, gradually fade into the distance until their figures disappeared, Elder Du’s wife finally exhaled deeply.
She leaned against the coffin, collapsing to the ground.
Using one finger, she gently traced a line on the coffin, murmuring:
“Old man, without you by my side for the rest of my life,
“what should I do…
“You’ve always been so tolerant and pampering of me.
“If I don’t keep your and my promise, will you… will you blame me?
“Don’t worry… I won’t do that.
“Yet, though it hasn’t even begun, it’s already such a torment…”
…
…
The night deepened.
On the turbulent sea, two ships were drawing close together.
One ship, damaged, was gradually sinking into the sea.
On the other ship, laughter erupted, mixed with a few cries of extreme panic.
Then came a whooshing sound, as a flying knife cut through the air, heading directly for a man tied to the mast.
The knife grazed his face, not piercing through his head, but stabbing through his ear, nailing him to the mast.
“Your hidden weapon technique is truly clumsy.”
“The boss said, if you kill directly, there’s a reward of a woman, but with your hidden weapon skills, you’ll likely spend tonight alone.”
“Hahaha.”
The laughter mingled with screams echoed simultaneously.
The pirate who threw the flying knife was instantly embarrassed, snorted, and downed a bowl of liquor.
A man, sitting among the pirates, casually playing with some jewels and jade ornaments, watched the scene with a smile.
He sighed:
“It’s been a long time of restraint, a rare activity, yet it’s still not satisfying.”
“After all, this is Qi Family’s territory; we still need to act cautiously.”
A man dressed as a scholar nearby cautioned in a low voice.
“I understand… It’s just that inactivity leads to restlessness after too long.
“If only a small boat came along, giving us the chance to plunder, it would let the brothers see some blood again.”
The scholar was suddenly at a loss, thinking, where could another boat come from at this time?
As this thought faded, a shout came from above:
“Boss, something strange, something strange!”
“What’s the matter, yelling like that?”
The scholar looked up, frowning slightly.
“There’s a Peng Boat sailing through the waves in the open sea!”
“Peng Boat?”
The scholar and the pirate leader exchanged surprised glances.
Just after mentioning a boat, a small one really comes, but a Peng Boat… that’s too small, isn’t it?
