Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning - Chapter 1460 - 552: The Little Monk’s Adventure (Part 3)
People were also surprised, how could there be a few lanterns floating on the sea?
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be some monks.
Only then did they rescue them from the water.
Finally, they all arrived at this Black Island and met Su Mo.
Xuanzhen Little Monk’s words were initially said in a calm tone.
After all, so much time had passed, there was no urgency anymore.
But when he talked about the journey with Master Kong Xing and the others, he couldn’t help but complain about the monks’ unreliability.
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun also listened with strange expressions.
Master Kong Xing and Master Kong Yan, on the other hand, appeared as silent meditating monks, each looking like a benevolent high monk.
Su Mo collected his thoughts slightly and softly spoke:
“According to Xuanzhen, does Master Kong Xing know if there is such a sect in the Nanhai?”
Master Kong Xing gently shook his head:
“There are numerous Jianghu sects in Nanhai, but those with such martial arts and entirely consisting of women…
“There is only the Yukun Palace.
“However, the skills exhibited by those female benefactors are not the same as those of Yukun Palace at all.
“They are even more ruthless, and earlier, I also inquired with Master Zhang, knowing that it wasn’t them.”
Su Mo nodded slightly and tapped his fingers gently on the table:
“Have any of you ever gone to Wangyou Island to investigate?”
Master Kong Xing was slightly taken aback, and Xuanzhen Little Monk was also a bit startled:
“Brother Su… When we encountered those women, it was on an uninhabited island, far away from Wangyou Island.
“I suppose Wangyou Island over there probably doesn’t know either?”
Su Mo pondered briefly and said softly:
“Was that deserted island you encountered truly uninhabited?”
“Mm.”
Xuanzhen Little Monk nodded vigorously:
“That island isn’t very large; if there were people, they would definitely have been discovered.
“Later, we returned to that island to search for clues…
“But we didn’t find any traces.”
“That confirms it then.”
Su Mo smiled and said:
“On your way escaping, you were forced onto that island.
“No one was on the island… so it can be ruled out that it was done by people on the island.
“To find you so accurately, either someone saw you during the three days you were being chased, had malicious intent, and followed you there.
“Or… you were already being watched when you were on Wangyou Island.
“In the former case, it’s unlikely.
“Jianghu grudges, people often remain uninvolved.
“If they observed you for a long time, they wouldn’t seek malice and then follow you to the island to strike.
“After all, they’re not sure if you have any reinforcements.
“But as for the latter.
“If they had malicious plans on Wangyou Island itself…
“Observing for those few days, discovering that there were only the two of you traveling.
“If you disclosed your background, they would have no qualms.
“That young master wishing to kill you, they wouldn’t rush to act.
“They’d wait until you’re both exhausted, and only then strike ruthlessly.
“If that’s the case, there might be clues on Wangyou Island for us to find the source.”}
Xuanzhen Little Monk suddenly realized:
“So that’s how it is, as expected Brother Su, you’re smart.”
Su Mo shook his head gently: “Not worth mentioning.”
Master Kong Xing then said:
“But if it’s Wangyou Island…
“Getting information from them might be harder than climbing to the sky.
“I and my fellow brothers have also been to Wangyou Island.
“The people on the island… do not allow almsgiving.”
“…”
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were speechless for a while.
Wangyou Island is a Xiaojin Cave; going there to beg for alms is clearly the wrong place.
Then Su Mo extended two fingers:
“There are two ways.”
Xuanzhen Little Monk immediately perked up his ears:
“Please, Brother Su, teach me.
“This trip, I ventured with Sister Xuan Yuan; if something happens to her, I truly cannot account for it when returning.
“Not to mention Tianxin Sect’s response, my master would also punish me.
“Please, Brother Su, save us.”
“It’s quite simple.”
Su Mo smiled: “I now have some reputation in Nanhai, let me write a letter and send it over. Let’s see if Wangyou Island will give me face.
“This is the first way.”
Xuanzhen Little Monk quickly said:
“Brother Su, now as Nanhai Alliance Leader and Dragon King Hall Master, I doubt Wangyou Island would dare offend you.”
“It’s still uncertain.”
Su Mo slightly shook his head:
“The second way is to buy the information with money.
“Money can work wonders; since on Wangyou Island, there’s nothing money can’t solve, then spend some money…”
“But I… am penniless.”
Xuanzhen Little Monk touched his pockets, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Master Kong Xing gently spoke:
“I can seek alms.”
No one paid him attention.
Master Kong Yan… he was already practicing silent meditation, now even more so didn’t speak.
“No need to worry about this, if it really comes to that, I’ll cover the cost for you.
“If we’re able to rescue the person, let Tianxin Sect repay the debt.”
“That’s great, that’s great.”
Xuanzhen Little Monk immediately nodded multiple times.
Su Mo didn’t hesitate:
“Time is short, I’ll write a letter now.
“Although those who captured Miss Xuan Yuan are a group of women, it seems that her life might not be in danger.
“But we’ve delayed enough time, dragging on any further is not right.
“You follow me for now and wait for a response.”
The three monks quickly stood up to express their gratitude.
After Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun saw the monks off, they didn’t waste time and went directly to the study, reaching the writing desk, while Yang Xiaoyun prepared the ink for him.
Su Mo picked up the brush and began to write.
But this letter was not addressed to Wangyou Island.
He wrote this letter to Qi Shengxuan.
From the previous traces, Su Mo always felt Qi Shengxuan had some unclear connections with Wangyou Island.
The first letter was written to Qi Shengxuan to probe the background.
If there’s indeed a connection, then the following matters will be easier.
He swiftly wrote with the brush, and within a moment, finished the letter.
Going outside, he whistled, and soon a Messenger Eagle flew down, he placed the letter, and let the eagle fly, heading straight to Tianqi Island.
A couple of days later, the Messenger Eagle returned.
Bringing Qi Shengxuan’s reply.
In the letter, he stated that he would personally visit Wangyou Island to investigate the matter.
After Su Mo read it, he was thoughtful, and shared this news with Xuanzhen Little Monk and the others.
The monks discussed briefly and decided to stay with Su Mo, waiting for Qi Shengxuan’s follow-up.
Another two or three days later, three large ships were already approaching the island where Cui Xin Temple was located.
