Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 320 - 174 Death Order_3

"It is said that the daughter of the Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall fell in love with a disciple named Wan Cangxin.

After knowing this, the Great Hall Master, enraged and humiliated, wanted to seize this man to accuse him.

Unexpectedly, Wan Cangxin turned out to be immensely talented and possessed extraordinary martial arts prowess despite his young age.

Those sent to capture him not only failed to subdue him but were instead killed by him without leaving a single survivor.

Wan Cangxin was of extreme temperament, and his actions were decisive and ruthless.

Knowing his deed had been exposed, he even planned to elope with the little princess of Wusheng Hall.

However, the little princess did not follow him, and in his rage, he set a huge fire in Wusheng Hall and seized the opportunity amidst the chaos to break into the Scripture Pavilion, stealing away with the [Great Transformation Rebirth Heart Lotus Scripture] from Wusheng Hall.

At that time, three Hall Masters of Wusheng Hall tried to stop Wan Cangxin, but he fought one against three, killing one on the spot while leaving the other two with varying degrees of injuries, and Wan Cangxin himself escaped with injuries.

The Great Hall Master of Wusheng Hall was in seclusion cultivating that day and could not come out in time.

By the time he emerged, Wan Cangxin had already fled.

Immediately, he was furious and issued the Death Order across Jianghu, declaring that anyone, no matter who, who could capture Wan Cangxin and deliver him to Wusheng Hall would receive great rewards.

Of course, the Death Order meant regardless of life or death!

In an instant, the situation intensified, with even people from Wusheng Hall stepping into the Phoenix Alliance’s territory in search of him.

Unfortunately, most people have come up empty-handed to this day.

...

...

Days passed leisurely, and the ship finally docked at Three Rivers Bay Pier.

Su Mo and his group of five disembarked and bought some fast horses to begin their journey to Luoxia City.

As usual, Zhen Xiaoxiao was still following behind them.

It was just that since Su Mo found out that the martial arts Zhen Xiaoxiao practiced might indeed be the long-lost Whale Swallowing Skill,

Su Mo became quite concerned about her condition.

Earlier, while she was eating, he checked on her.

He discovered that the food she ingested was naturally converted into Inner Strength under the influence of her Inner Strength and directly stored in various acupoints throughout her body.

This undoubtedly became even more aligned with the Whale Swallowing Skill.

Under the current circumstances, Su Mo could not easily alter the operating route of the Whale Swallowing Skill.

He could only continue with the method he had used before when assisting Zhen Xiaoxiao in circulating her energy, allowing Zhen Xiaoxiao to operate it in this manner during her usual rapid cultivation sessions, and try to convert the Inner Strength in her acupoints as much as possible.

This method turned out to be truly effective; after trying a few times, Zhen Xiaoxiao started complaining to Su Mo.

She said that following the Master’s method made her feel hungrier quicker.

Su Mo told her to endure, and she honestly agreed.

Though it was a stopgap solution, they tried to delay as much as possible.

That day, as the evening approached, Yang Xiaoyun looked at the surroundings and said:

"There is a village right ahead; let’s stay overnight at a villager’s house tonight.

"A bit further, and we will reach Zhongfu City. Once we pass Zhongfu City, it won’t be much farther."

"Alright."

Su Mo nodded, and did not forget to remind Zhen Xiaoxiao, "When we have dinner at the villager’s house later, try to restrain yourself, don’t frighten the host."

"Okay, Master!"

Zhen Xiaoxiao immediately nodded.

"...call me Chief."

Although Su Mo knew it was useless, he couldn’t help but correct him.

"Um, I understand, Master!"

Zhen Xiaoxiao nodded earnestly, his face full of determination.

Su Mo sighed deeply and decided to give up.

Liu Mo and Fu Han Yuan glanced at each other, both somewhat amused.

They had come to understand Zhen Xiaoxiao even better on this journey.

This chubby fellow was a simple child, naive and cheerful, yet, paradoxically, skilled in martial arts.

Even Liu Mo, renowned for his extraordinary physical strength, wielding the Purple Gold Concave Maces, was difficult for ordinary people to approach.

However, when he tried to compete in strength with Zhen Xiaoxiao, he was far outmatched.

Although Zhen Xiaoxiao possessed remarkable inner strength and divine power, his techniques lacked variety.

Even Fu Han Yuan, with his limited practical experience, could slightly take advantage of Zhen Xiaoxiao in terms of technique.

But only slightly...

Zhen Xiaoxiao’s martial arts were bizarre; his Sky Frost True Qi was actually useless against Zhen Xiaoxiao, who instead deeply inhaled it, finding it cool and rather enjoyable.

This left Fu Han Yuan cursing in frustration, for his lethal Sky Frost True Qi was nonchalantly treated like cold food by Zhen Xiaoxiao.

When there’s more to say, it’s long; when there’s less, it’s short. In the blink of an eye, the village was already in sight.

However, Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun furrowed their brows.

The two exchanged a glance, and Su Mo gently raised his hand:

"At dusk, yet no smoke from cooking fires; there must be trouble in the village, everyone be careful."

"Yes."

Liu Mo and Fu Han Yuan responded, Su Mo spurred his horse forward, with Yang Xiaoyun following closely.

Zhen Xiaoxiao, carrying the One-legged Copper Man, ran with a thunderous sound.

Following behind were Fu Han Yuan and Liu Mo, Liu Mo having already drawn one of his Purple Gold Concave Maces.

Before even getting close, the air was already filled with the stench of blood, and a few more steps toward the entrance of the village revealed bodies strewn about, with dead villagers everywhere.

Yang Xiaoyun’s expression darkened; dismounting with his Dragon Abyss Spear, he turned over a body only to see its chest hollowed out, a claw-like weapon having gouged out the heart.

At this moment, Su Mo suddenly looked up to see a small man standing on the roof of a house.

Casually swinging an iron chain in his hand, with an iron claw attached to it,

he swung it lightly, chuckling:

"A fierce horse, a rider, carrying a spear, wearing maces, and also a one-legged copper man... What else is in that box of yours?

"Gentlemen, could it be that you are skilled warriors of Jianghu?"

Su Mo quietly glanced at him: "These people, did you kill them?"

"Yes, yes."

The man nodded repeatedly: "My brothers were hungry, the villagers gave too little food, not enough. After asking, they said there is not much food at home, barely enough for this winter, they planned to cultivate more wasteland next spring to grow more food...

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, seeing their hardship, I simply took their lives; wouldn’t it be wonderful for our brothers to eat and drink here for a few more days?"

As his words fell, the whooshing sound of rushing air began, and more figures arrived, each taking up positions on the rooftops, their gazes turning towards Su Mo and his group.
