Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 443 - 215 First Entry into Ziyang_3

Su Mo casually held a sword and wrote three words beside the corpse: Do Not Touch!

Then he sheathed the longsword back into Wei Ziyi’s scabbard.

Wei Ziyi saw this and curled her lips:

"There’s a type of person in Jianghu, the more you tell them not to do something, the more they insist on doing it."

Su Mo nodded: "Such people are quite despicable... Good advice is wasted on the doomed, even if I didn’t leave a note, would they really not touch it?"

"That’s also true."

Wei Ziyi nodded: "And if they truly are cautious, seeing this note will naturally lead them to follow the virtuous path."

"That’s the idea."

Duan Song glanced at Su Mo and shook his head: "Really resembles your father..."

"..."

Su Mo found that the Su Tianyang seen in Duan Song’s eyes was definitely not the same person seen by others.

But this was understandable.

After all, people are fickle.

Duan Song and Su Tianyang had grown up together, naturally seeing different sides of Su Tianyang.

To others, Su Tianyang might indeed appear bold and generous, a hero of great virtue, but in front of Duan Song, he probably was the mischievous elder brother always thinking of ways to tease his junior brother.

Shaking his head with a smile, Su Mo did not bother to dwell on this.

The old man had two disciples of the Ziyang Sect lead the way as everyone headed towards the Ziyang Sect.

With Duan Song leading the way, they naturally took no wrong turns.

It didn’t even take half a day when the Ziyang Sect was already within sight.

It was just that it was already night when they arrived, so they missed the scenic views of Shouyang Mountain.

Climbing the mountain in the dark wasn’t really appropriate but with Duan Song leading, the propriety didn’t matter anymore.

Along the way, they went straight to the Pure Yang Hall.

Duan Song let Su Mo and the others sit for a while, ordered disciples to prepare tea, and had someone arrange accommodations for Su Mo and his company.

After making these arrangements, Duan Song said to Su Mo:

"Since it’s evening, let’s not disturb your Grandmaster tonight, tomorrow morning, I will take you to pay a formal visit to him."

"That is as it should be."

Su Mo nodded, actually feeling that they shouldn’t have come tonight.

Visiting in the morning and meeting the elders of the sect would have been most suitable.

However, Duan Song said that coming back home didn’t need so much formality, and that being casual was fine, hence Su Mo was forcefully brought up the mountain.

At this moment, taking in the Pure Yang Hall, he saw not some Tao Elder enshrined at the altar, but a Golden Body.

Looking up, Su Mo saw the golden body withered, its robes fluttering ethereally, yet inexplicably, he could feel a trace of Pure Yang Qi emanating from it.

He shivered slightly in his heart.

Seeing this, Duan Song smiled: "This is the Pure Yang relic of our sect’s founding ancestor."

"Ah?"

Su Mo was greatly surprised.

Wei Ziyi curled her lips and said: "To think you call yourself a disciple of Ziyang Sect and don’t even know what’s enshrined in the Pure Yang Hall. This is your Ziyang Sect’s founding ancestor... Ziyang True Mortal."

"Exactly."

Duan Song nodded: "...Xiao Mo, as the son of Su Tianyang, you should definitely be aware of our Ziyang Sect’s origins.

"Our Ziyang Sect was founded during the Da Xuan Dynasty!

"With his mastery of the Nine Purple Fierce Sun Burning Sky Technique, evolving into Nine Purple Dominating the Sky, he was like a Heavenly Person.

"He founded our sect on this mountain, thus beginning Ziyang Sect’s centuries of glorious history.

"And this Nine Purple Fierce Sun Burning Sky Technique, since its creation, was only cultivated to the realm of Nine Purple Sky by ancestor Zi Yang himself.

"Afterwards, this realm became akin to a legend, never again appearing before the public.

"We, the later generations with meager abilities, are barely managing to carry on these absolute skills, but can never truly replicate the glory days, it’s indeed embarrassing..."

When he said this, he no longer maintained an air of pretentious superiority.

His words were heartfelt.

Su Mo gently nodded, recalling the legends of the Heavenly Blade Sect.

It’s said that the founder of Heavenly Blade Sect, with his Absolute Skill, split a thousand-mile cloud sea with one slash, truly shocking and awe-inspiring.

Now Ziyang Sect has its own legend of Nine Purple Dominating the Sky, which seems equally incredible.

Of course... Su Mo always felt that their ability to exaggerate was not to be underestimated, but it wasn’t necessarily as profound as claimed.

Duan Song continued:

"Later, our ancestor felt his time was near, so he called his predecessors to his side, instructing them, ’After my death, my body shall not decay and should be placed in the Pure Yang Hall for younger disciples to study the mysteries of the Divine Skill.’

"However, the younger disciples felt that just placing it there for inspection wasn’t enough to honor the ancestor.

"Therefore, they offered incense and worshipped regularly.

"To this day, hundreds of years have passed."

Su Mo couldn’t help but admire this.

In this era, burial was the norm.

Ziyang Ancestor, who comprehended the mysteries of life and death, knowing his end was near, willingly allowed his later disciples to observe his remains to understand the essence of Ziyang Sect’s cultivation techniques.

Such an open-minded attitude was truly extraordinary.

After adjusting his clothes, he asked Duan Song: "Master Duan, should I also pay homage to the ancestor?"

"Ha ha ha."

Duan Song laughed heartily: "Well, we’ll ask your Grandmaster about that tomorrow."

Just then, a disciple came with a message that the accommodations were ready.

Duan Song nodded, leading Su Mo and the others out of the Pure Yang Hall, making their way towards the back mountain.

While walking, he said:

"Tonight, you can rest in the courtyard your father once lived in.

"The people from Ziyang Escort Agency are also resting near your lodgings.

"Actually, cleaning was done for this reason; otherwise, just your courtyard... has been cleaned for over a decade."

At this point, he paused slightly, glancing at Su Mo: "Ever since your father left the Ziyang Sect that day, the Sect Leader has had it cleaned daily.

"When your father was here, it was in preparation for his return.

"After your father was gone, he has been waiting for you.

"He always said to keep it clean, otherwise, when that child returns, he wouldn’t have a place to stay."
