Chapter 64: Think Twice Before Acting
"How do you feel, Master Kurana?"
Luo Zhen quickly stood up and walked up to him, with a hint of worry in his rat-like eyes.
"…Is it the Ugly Gentleman?"
Master Zangming was stunned for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief.
Luo Zhen's mouth twitched: "A gentleman is a gentleman. I am obviously a gentleman, so who is ugly?"
"Everyone knows that although an ugly gentleman is ugly, he has the best heart..."
Zangming Zhenren smiled weakly, but his eyes looked at Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun with some doubt. However, when he saw the silver spear in Yang Xiaoyun's hand, he suddenly realized: "Longyuan Spear... Judging from your age, you are probably Yang Yizhi's daughter, right?"
"I am Yang Xiaoyun from the Iron Blood Escort Agency, and I am honored to meet the Tibetan Master."
Yang Xiaoyun clasped his hands together, bowed solemnly, and introduced Su Mo: "This is Su Mo, the chief escort of Ziyang Escort Agency."
"Zi Yang Escort Agency..."
The Tibetan Master frowned slightly, as if he couldn't remember it, but he didn't try to understand it. He looked around and his face suddenly darkened: "Where... where is this?"
"Under the Pinjian Tower in Yuliu Villa."
Su Mo said softly, "May I ask Master Zangming, Liu Qingkong, the chief steward of Yuliu Villa, once said that a month and a half ago, you visited Yuliu Jianxin, but I don't know what happened?"
"A month and a half ago...I came to visit..."
The Tibetan master frowned, his face showed a hint of pain, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead.
Seeing this, Luo Zhen quickly said, "Master Zangming, don't be anxious. Think about it slowly."
"…I am fine, I am fine!"
The Tibetan Master suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "I remember it now! A few months ago, maybe two months , or even longer, I can't remember the details... I only know that enemies suddenly came to Xuanji Valley that night.
“This group of people have strange martial arts skills and extremely cruel methods. The leader’s martial arts skills are not inferior to mine, and there are several people assisting him.
“My two fists were no match for four hands, and I was eventually captured by them.
“After that, I was attacked by them day and night with my magic power, and my mind became hazy.
"I spent a period of time like this, without any sunlight. During that time, I was in a daze. I only know that one day, the leader among them suddenly returned with serious injuries...
"After that, I regained consciousness and saw one of them suddenly came in front of me. I don't know what tricks he used, but I couldn't help but stand up and obey his orders. My mind was actually clear for a rare time, but I couldn't control my body.
"The man looked at me and said, "It's not accomplished yet. Although it's barely enough, I can only make do with it."
“After saying this, I followed that man’s instructions and came to the guest reception area of Xuanji Valley with him.
“Then I realized that it was someone from Yuliu Villa who said he had a letter for me.
"After receiving the letter and sending away the people from Yuliu Villa, the old Taoist became confused again.
"And the next time I was conscious, I was on the way to Yuliu Villa."
After that, what Master Zangming said could correspond to what Liu Qingkong said before.
Under that man's control, Zangming Zhenren visited Yuliu Villa. Liu Suifeng was seriously injured and met Zangming Zhenren in the room. As a result... they started to fight each other in the room.
The man who came with Zang Ming Zhenren disguised himself as a boy sitting under his seat.
Although his martial arts skills were inferior to the leader's, Liu Suifeng was seriously injured after all. As a result, the leader finally captured Liu Suifeng.
“I and that man visited Liu Suifeng and captured him.
“The others besieged Yuliu Villa.
"Under the combined attack from both inside and outside, Yuliu Villa was ultimately unable to withstand it.
“When I woke up, the last thing I remembered was that they were discussing how to treat Liu Suifeng.
“From what they said, they want to bring Liu Suifeng back to Xuanji Valley and use all their strength to make him a blood slave.
“It is said that any achievement can be of great use at a critical moment.
"I don't know anything after that... They seemed to have done something cruel to me. I was in a daze all the way until now. When I woke up again, I saw you all."
When Zangming Zhenren said this, he seemed to still be affected by the residual power of the Blood Transformation Divine Art. He felt a splitting headache from time to time, and occasionally felt a little powerless.
After finishing his words reluctantly, he tried to stand up again: "What time is it now? What's going on in Xuanji Valley? Is Liu Suifeng okay? Everyone...how did you get here?"
"Master, please be patient. We really don't know what is going on in Xuanji Valley at the moment. As for Yuliu Villa...just listen to me."
Luo Zhen hurriedly helped Zangming Zhenren to sit down and began to tell the story in detail from the beginning.
Yang Xiaoyun came to Su Mo, and after exchanging glances, they both fell silent.
Ji Shuhua spent one hundred taels of silver to ask them to deliver the escort.
Su Mo's intention of accepting this escort mission was, on the one hand, to take on a system task, and on the other hand, to make some progress on the Luo Feng League's side.
Who could have thought that this incident would involve so many unexpected events?
This matter involved too many things, far beyond Su Mo's original expectations.
"Xiao Mo, this trip is too dangerous."
Seeing that Zangming Zhenren and Luo Zhen didn't notice this, Yang Xiaoyun whispered to Su Mo: "Although we say that loyalty comes first when we walk in the martial arts world, this matter involves the Youquan Sect and the lives of so many martial arts figures. We are mediating in this, and if we are not careful, we may be doomed. We have to think twice about how to proceed."
These words surprised Su Mo again. He originally thought that according to Yang Xiaoyun's personality, he would never stop even through mountains of swords and seas of fire.
Unexpectedly, she was the first one to hesitate.
As if sensing the surprise in Su Mo's eyes, Yang Xiaoyun rolled his eyes at him and said, "In the martial arts world, loyalty and promises are certainly important. However, taking risks rashly is not only irresponsible to yourself, but also to your loyalty and promises. If there is any mistake in this trip, and you go there rashly, and end up dying in the hands of the Youquan Sect, not only will you lose your life, but you will also fail to do what you promised them.
“Think twice before you act. It’s not that I won’t do it, but I don’t want you to act rashly.”
Su Mo smiled: "Sister Xiaoyun is right. If it were you, what would you do?"
"We'll deal with it based on the situation first. If there's something we can do, we'll deal with the matter at Yuliu Villa first. If not, we'll withdraw first, and then write a letter to the Iron Blood Escort Agency, asking Dad to come and help us. We're not alone in this world, so if we can't win, we can only ask our parents for help."
Yang Xiaoyun said this as a matter of course.
Su Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, and just sighed: "If there is enough time, this is indeed the best choice, but now... I'm just worried that it may be too late."
