Chapter 647: Chapter 283 Let’s Go Kill Someone_2
Yang Xiaoyun had also arrived by now and couldn’t help but sigh at the sight.
Just how resolute that woman’s decision must have been, nobody could imagine.
The dagger she threw was not just a weapon, but represented the life of her and her son.
The three immediately set to work untying the ropes around these people.
Afterwards, Su Mo hesitated for a moment, before asking Xu Lu:
“How come you are here? What’s with that big red sedan chair?”
This was the doubt that Su Mo had earlier.
Jianghu is filled with deception, and Su Mo is naturally cautious. Earlier, he had not seen Xu Lu displaying such heroism; suddenly seeing him together with a mysterious and obviously shady person, he naturally had some concerns.
That’s also why he hadn’t taken immediate action before. He wanted to see what Xu Lu was really up to.
Yet unexpectedly, he saw Xu Lu sacrificing himself for righteousness.
And the words he said had also affected Su Mo.
Indeed, Jianghu is deceitful. The evilness in people’s hearts and the peril in Jianghu only make those with chivalry shine even more brilliantly.
So, his question now was much more direct.
Xu Lu was startled: “Master…”
“Shut up!”
Su Mo rolled his eyes largely, why was this man still clinging on?
“…Alright then, Su, the Chief of the Escort, did you see that?”
Xu Lu wasn’t foolish. If Su Mo could ask this, it must be because he had noticed something, he immediately said:
“This is a long story, but I’ll keep it short. I got the Hidden Killing Order and used some old connections, after some effort, I finally found a way to the Hidden Killing Building.
“After submitting the request, I was rushing here to meet with you and the others.
“But unexpectedly, while on the way, I got kidnapped by the woman in that sedan chair…”
“Kidnapped?”
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged glances, the term he used was rather intriguing.
Especially since Xu Lu possessed the Qinggong of Immortal Trace Mysterious Record, and was usually very alert and cautious, the fact that he was kidnapped… was indeed surprising.
Xu Lu felt somewhat embarrassed and scratched his head:
“At that time, I was resting temporarily in a rundown house in the wilderness, and this woman actually started scaring people by pretending to be a ghost.
“Although I’m accustomed to traveling at night, there’s always a saying lingering in my heart…
‘Those who frequently walk at night will eventually encounter ghosts.’”
“…”
Su Mo was momentarily speechless.
Xu Lu was so frightened by the slick tricks of pretending to be a god in that big red sedan chair that his legs went weak, how could he possibly use his Qinggong?
And in the end, just like that, he was caught.
Even now, he could not help but feel indignant:
“What kind of red sedan Ghost Burning Lamp, if not at the third night watch then at the fifth.
“Insisting she was some Ghost Lady wanting to marry in the middle of the night…
“Later I found out that she was actually from the Hidden Killing Building.
“Knowing my connection with you, she then came knocking on the door.”
Su Mo reflected:
“Then, how did you come to know about the situation in Tihu Village?”
“It was the Ghost Lady who told me,” Xu Lu continued: “She said she actually just wanted to express a goodwill towards you, not to pry any information from me.
“The Hidden Killing Building has extensive reach with numerous disciples everywhere.
“Many of its adept members actually have dual identities.
“By day, they are heroes of Jianghu, but by night, in their night clothes, they are assassins of the Hidden Killing Building.
“Hence, the information within the Hidden Killing Building is extremely reliable.
“They not only know where you are currently, but even know who wants to deal with you.
“She said, according to the schedule, by the time they caught up to you, you’d be in Tihu Village.
“There, the Master of Wangxuan Mountain intends to use underhanded methods to steal the Xinghai Relic Sand Iron.
“And they had captured villagers to use as leverage against you in case their plan was exposed.
“We rushed here and had already planned our moves.
“She went to deal with those masters, whereas I came here to rescue the villagers to free you from being constrained.
“I just didn’t expect that the guards of the villagers would also include masters… almost costing me my life.”
He felt a chill recounting his ordeal.
In moments of crisis, bold actions are needed, and contemplations of life and death allow no hesitance.
Looking back now, he truly had walked a line between life and death.
Feelings of fear were inevitably resurfacing.
Su Mo meditated:
“Did she mention what means the Master of Wangxuan Mountain planned to use to steal the Xinghai Relic Sand Iron?”
“She didn’t tell me that.”
Xu Lu shook his head.
Su Mo was momentarily silent, his thoughts churning.
According to Xu Lu’s story, the Hidden Killing Building seems no ordinary entity.
Yet, the Master of Wangxuan Mountain also seemed somewhat ridiculous.
