Chapter 1782 - 656: Escort Delivery

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader was fleeing at Xiao Jingshan at that time.

This matter was actually within Su Mo’s expectations.

It could even be said to be intentionally facilitated.

The reason for this is that after Little Situ gave the Blood Lotus Sect Leader the Soul Loss Potion that night, from this person’s behavior, Su Mo could see... he was not under the influence of the Soul Loss Potion at all.

The Soul Loss Potion is an extremely peculiar poison.

After drinking it, one believes whatever is said by the people around them.

Therefore, every time someone drinks the Soul Loss Potion, Su Mo would always be nearby, gently guiding them.

He would weave a reason, utterly outrageous yet unassailably believable, for the poisoned person.

Making him speak everything he knows, keeping nothing back.

However, the Blood Lotus Sect Leader at that time completely disregarded this part and directly answered whatever was asked.

After Su Mo asked the first question, he realized something was amiss.

Thereafter, he remained nonchalant, casually asking questions, allowing him to answer.

As for the words spoken, it was evidently a mixture of truth and falsehood.

Among them, the matter of Dongmen Yong appearing at Imperial Court Mountain might just be the other party’s unscrupulous fabrication.

However, this situation on Imperial Court Mountain is bound to be complicated, and the possibility of Dongmen Yong being personally there is quite high.

Thus, Su Mo chose to believe in the possibility of his presence rather than his absence.

Regardless of whether he appeared or not, he was treated as if he was secretly hiding here, plotting.

And after that night, the Blood Lotus Sect Leader was handed over by Su Mo to the Qilin Swordsman, requesting him to deliver him to Elder Yushu at Xiao Jingshan.

This move had two purposes.

Firstly, to provide Elder Yushu with more tangible evidence, ensuring that Jingxin Hall couldn’t recover.

Secondly, to give the Blood Lotus Sect Leader a chance to escape.

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader had lost all his martial arts skills and, even in front of the Qilin Swordsman, had no chance of escaping.

But since he was colluding with the Jingxin Hall Master, conspiring together.

His only hope would be this person.

And the outcome was just as Su Mo predicted.

This person managed to flee.

Zhen Xiaoxiao and Mu Shanshan had no clue how he escaped.

However, there was another person who was always observing in the shadows.

This person was Yu Lingxin.

When Zhen Xiaoxiao and Mu Shanshan accompanied the Qilin Swordsman, Su Mo also secretly sent a letter to Yu Lingxin.

This letter instructed her to secretly follow and monitor the Blood Lotus Sect Leader.

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader’s downfall, with Jingxin Hall now under public condemnation, made any attempt to reverse the situation impossible, but the Blood Lotus Sect Leader, wanting to regain his martial arts skills, was beyond ordinary people’s capabilities. However, Dongmen Yong might have a solution.

Keeping an eye on this person would greatly increase the chances of finding Dongmen Yong.

At the same time, this was also a precaution for Su Mo to ascertain whether Dongmen Yong was truly at Imperial Court Mountain.

If the Blood Lotus Sect Leader indeed came to Imperial Court Mountain, then the probability of Dongmen Yong being here increased significantly.

Now, with Yu Lingxin already here, it is an indirect confirmation of this matter.

It’s just that Su Mo is also unsure how she ended up with Xiao He and them?

Logically speaking, shouldn’t she have sought out Yang Yizhi and others?

Xiao He, under the alias Xiao Yifeng, claiming to be from Heluo Xiao, came to visit Shunfeng Escort Agency’s Vice Leader Chen Dinghai.

The two exchanged pleasantries in the yard, and then Chen Dinghai led them into the main hall, closing the door for discussion.

Seeing this, Lu Ren and the others thought it inappropriate to approach further.

Hua Shiyi glanced over the people of Shunfeng Escort Agency one by one, finally landing her gaze on Su Mo, who followed behind them.

Seeing him looking around proudly and joyfully, she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

How could she have doubted him?

The Heluo Xiao is an unfamiliar name, indicating they don’t have much renown.

Even when they came to visit Shunfeng Escort Agency, he was proud and happy, suggesting his perspective was indeed quite ordinary.

He definitely wasn’t the expert from last night.

As the thought ran through her mind, she noticed Lu Ren gazing at her.

Their eyes met, she gave a slight nod, and moved towards a room.

Hua Shiyi hadn’t even informed Lu Ren about what she experienced when she stayed out late last night.

Now was a good time to share a thing or two.

Meanwhile, inside the hall, no one was seated.

Shi Shengtian, Yu Lingxin, and Yang Xiaoyun stood aside, while Chen Dinghai and Zhang Quan, along with the group from Nanhai, knelt down:

"Greetings, Supreme!"

Their voices were not loud, fear of being overheard making them somewhat sneaky.

Su Mo chuckled silently and gently waved his hand:

"All of you, please rise."

"Thank you, Supreme."

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up, looking at Su Mo with joyful eyes.

Yu Lingxin, witnessing this, couldn’t help but feel an emotional swell.

Thinking back to the first time she met Su Mo, she thought of him as an inexperienced little young master.

Thrown into a chaotic situation, naive and unknowing.

Even though he later showcased unfathomable martial arts skills, in front of the colossal Jinglong Association, he still seemed insignificant.

Yet unexpectedly, along this journey, she watched him rise.

The Heavenly Gate Master of the Three Extremes Sect struggled between life and death because of him.

Later, he traversed Donghuang, his fame soaring.

Gradually, he earned the title of the number one expert.

Now, after a trip to Nanhai, he garnered the title of Nanhai Supreme.

She herself, along with Yang Yizhi and the others, have been in Xizhou for some time, eagerly waiting for him to come and take charge.

Unknowingly, that once naive little young master has become the pillar everyone relies on.

Undoubtedly becoming the backbone in the hearts of many.
