Capítulo 782: Chapter 328 Great Hall Order_2
“Although Su, the Chief of the Escort, is now considered the foremost figure in Donghuang.
“Such matters ultimately do no favors for one’s reputation. Standing here now is merely the son of Wan Yutang…
“After the matters within the great hall are concluded, I will ask my father to bestow upon me a new name.
“Let the name Wan Cangxin be laid to rest in Tianqu City.”
Su Mo glanced at Wan Cangxin:
“Do the Hall Masters have knowledge of this?”
“…My father has already told the truth.”
Wan Cangxin nodded.
“Hm.”
Su Mo smiled slightly: “In that case, let’s go, we mustn’t keep Master Wan waiting.”
As he spoke, he paused slightly: “Is the lady of your heart well?”
“She has retired.”
A trace of a smile crossed Wan Cangxin’s face, yet he also sighed:
“Lady Wan passed away before her, and Jun Luo was taken away by Lord Su.
“From being the once cherished young mistress of Wusheng Hall, she’s now a girl all alone in the world…
“It’s inevitable that she feels a sense of loss.
“From now on, I will cherish her twice as much and ensure she suffers not the slightest grievance.”
“Good.”
Yang Xiaoyun, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but nod:
“That is what a true man should do.”
Wan Yutang somewhat embarrassedly smiled: “Sister-in-law flatters me.”
When there’s much to discuss, the conversation lengthens; when there’s little, it shortens.
The three proceeded together and soon arrived at the main hall of Wusheng Hall.
The main doors of Wusheng Hall were tightly closed; clearly, they were conducting a private discussion within. Wan Cangxin didn’t lead Su Mo through the back.
With Su Mo’s status, why would he enter through the back door?
Standing at the front, Wan Cangxin exhaled and announced:
“Ziyang Escort Agency, Su, the Chief of the Escort has arrived!”
With a creak, the doors opened instantly.
Su Mo, along with Yang Xiaoyun, stepped inside, followed by Wan Cangxin.
Immediately, from Wan Yutang to the various Hall Masters, all rose to their feet.
However, Wan Yutang was seriously injured, still covered in wounds and hooks. Even if he wished to rise, it was quite the struggle.
Wan Cangxin quickly stepped forward to support him.
Su Mo quickly spoke up:
“Master Wan need only sit at ease; there’s no need for the rest to stand on ceremony.”
Wan Yutang, however, shook his head:
“Lord Su saved my life, a debt I can never repay. I did not personally invite you, and that was quite rude of me, how could I remain seated?
“Please, Lord Su, take the seat of honor.”
“I dare not.”
Su Mo gestured with his hand: “Great Hall Master, please sit. As a guest, I cannot presume to take the host’s place.”
“Lord Su, please sit here.”
Li Zhongming made way from his spot, and the remaining Hall Masters accordingly moved down a seat.
Su Mo thought for a moment: “Then I thank Hall Master Li.”
“No trouble at all.”
Li Zhongming hurriedly invited Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun to sit.
After another round of polite exchanges, everyone finally sat down.
Wan Yutang glanced at Wan Cangxin, who promptly nodded, turned and went to the inner hall; shortly after, he returned with a box.
He handed it to Su Mo with both hands.
Su Mo was startled, looking at Wan Cangxin:
“What is this?”
“Lord Su, please accept it.”
Wan Yutang spoke softly:
“In the Endless Prison, Lord Su mentioned that everything Jun Luo brought from the Da Xuan Ruins would be of use to you.
“This box contains that broken sword…”
“Oh?”
Su Mo stood up, opened the box, and indeed it contained the half of the broken sword.
He took it out to inspect, then asked:
“Master Wan, do you know the origin of this sword?”
“This sword…”
Wan Yutang gently shook his head: “All I know is the sword is named ‘Dao.’ Jun Luo made a remark, ‘The Heavenly Dao is flawed, thus this sword is broken.’
“Whether this saying is true or false remains to be seen… but this sword is truly sharp and exceptional.”
Su Mo nodded, placed the sword back in the box, and closed the lid, then said with a smile:
“Master Wan, I’ve already taken what I need; forgive me for not being able to accept this sword.
“Your esteemed son is also a master of swordsmanship, and despite its own flaws, this broken sword remains a divine weapon.
“It’s perfectly suited for Brother Wan.”
“This…”
Wan Cangxin was momentarily stunned: “Lord Su…”
“There’s no need for further words.”
Su Mo smiled: “I already have Dragon Roar by my side, which I seldom use. A Divine Weapon in hand would just gather dust. With Brother Wan’s Heavenly Spring Heart Cleansing Swordsmanship, this sword will surely take you to greater heights.”
Wan Cangxin still wished to decline, but Wan Yutang sighed and said:
“Lord Su is truly exceptional, and I am in admiration.
“Since that’s the case, my son, accept this sword.”
Wan Cangxin looked at Wan Yutang in surprise, while Su Mo could only smile silently.
Observing the expressions of those present, he couldn’t help but feel that Wan Yutang had gone to great lengths for his son.
Now, he also understood why Wan Yutang had taken this opportunity to invite him.
Wan Cangxin’s schemes were slightly lacking, evidently failing to see the true motive here.
There were two purposes behind Wan Yutang presenting the sword openly…
The first was to account for the benefits acquired by Jun Luo in the Endless Prison.
This was something Wan Yutang had to explain to the other Hall Masters.
Without evidence, only with a public explanation and with Su Mo’s conformation, could this be settled.
After hearing, not only should the mouths of those present acknowledge it, but their hearts must as well.
Who amongst you would dare deny the first person of Donghuang what he desires?
“”
