Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning

Capítulo 769: Chapter 324: Burning Life

“Jinglong Association and Imperial Dao?”

Jun Luo’s brows furrowed tightly upon hearing this: “Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort, knows of Jinglong Association, but does he not know where it originated from?”

“I was about to seek your guidance.”

Su Mo fiddled casually with the Mysterious Mechanism in his hand, his fingertips brushing against some patterns that were indeed there.

There were still two of these items hidden within the Ziyang Escort Agency; in the past, Su Mo avoided them like the plague.

He truly had never taken a close look at the patterns on them.

Who could have anticipated that these would actually record the location of the Imperial City of the Da Xuan Dynasty?

But with this, things seemed somewhat odd.

Why record the location of the Imperial City on the Mysterious Mechanism that unlocks the Da Xuan’s Armory?

Which king of an empire that ruled the entire world wouldn’t know where the Imperial City was?

Could it be that when they built the Da Xuan’s Armory all those years ago, they already foresaw what would happen in the future?

So they left clues on the seven Mysterious Mechanisms?

After this thought crossed his mind, he shook his head, feeling that this explanation still didn’t quite make sense.

What the Da Xuan Dynasty went through all those years ago was still shrouded in mist up till now.

But if the Da Xuan Dynasty had anticipated this back then, with the full might of the empire, what crises could not be overcome?

And even if something had to be recorded on these Mysterious Mechanisms, it shouldn’t be the location of the Imperial City, but it should be the location of the Da Xuan’s Armory, right?

While his thoughts churned, he heard Jun Luo laugh:

“Since Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort, wishes to know, then how can Jun Luo not tell the truth?

“To be honest, Jinglong Association has extended its influence across the world for hundreds of years, yet its true foundation dates back to before the fall of Da Xuan.

“Da Xuan Dynasty dominated the world, sweeping across all directions, creating a situation unprecedented throughout history.

“Emperor Xuan established his country with martial strength, and horses trampled across Jianghu, leaving bloodbaths everywhere it went.

“Having accomplished such great deeds, how could one not bear the eternal sins of slaughter?

“War will ultimately result in death, and the relatives and friends of the dead, or those who mourn the fate of others, how could they not harbor resentment and fear in their hearts?

“These people knew that it was a delusion to think of overthrowing Da Xuan with their own abilities.

“However, where there is wisdom in numbers, a collective of like-minded individuals can eventually achieve something significant.

“This was the nascent form of Jinglong Association.”

“…They’re rebels?”

Su Mo blinked.

Su Chengyu, the ancestor of the Su family, had seized the Xuantian Treasure Seal from Jinglong Association back in those days.

When Su Mo saw this ‘Imperial Jade Seal’, he even thought that Jinglong Association was a remnant of Da Xuan.

But what he heard now from Jun Luo was entirely different from what he had envisioned. Find the newest release on novlfire.net

As his thoughts churned, he raised his eyes to look at Jun Luo:

“Did the fall of the Da Xuan Dynasty have anything to do with Jinglong Association?”

“If Jinglong Association truly had the ability to overturn the Da Xuan Dynasty, then the situation in the world today would be utterly different.

“What exactly the Da Xuan Dynasty went through back then.

“There are no records in the books, and it cannot be conveyed through genealogies.

“Our clan is even forbidden to pass it down through word of mouth.

“By the time it was handed down to my generation, all this has already become a secret that is impossible to know.

“But I know, the fall of the Da Xuan Dynasty definitely had nothing to do with Jinglong Association.

“However, after the fall of Da Xuan Dynasty, Jinglong Association, originally insignificant, became one of the most formidable forces in the world.

“Our clan’s records indicate, right after Da Xuan’s trouble began, the world became utterly chaotic.

“The Da Xuan’s Armory became the target of all.

“Yet what we truly need to be wary of, is only Jinglong Association.

“For all these years, the one we’ve been avoiding is also Jinglong Association.

“It is said that when the Imperial City was embroiled in chaos, the people from Jinglong Association burst in and slaughtered indiscriminately.

“They even got their hands on some extremely important items.

“I speculate that what they seized is likely one of the other Mysterious Mechanisms.

“Seven Mysterious Mechanisms, our clan protects three of them, each hidden in three different locations.

“Each place requires the collection of three items before it can be unlocked.

“The remaining four, however, are scattered across Jianghu.

“Even if Jinglong Association didn’t get them all, they must have at least one or two…”

Su Mo shook his head slightly to what he had heard.

What Jinglong Association seized back then might not necessarily be the Mysterious Mechanism.

It should be the Xuantian Treasure Seal.

The importance of this inheritance, compared to the Mysterious Mechanism, is of a different nature.

After a slight contemplation, he asked again:

“What about Imperial Dao?”

“Imperial Dao…”

Jun Luo squinted his eyes slightly and looked up at Su Mo:

“After talking at length to this point, Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort, has yet to make it clear.

“Are you willing to collaborate with me?”

“Of course, I am willing.”

Su Mo immediately nodded: “To be able to rule and possess the world, why would I not want that?”

“…”

Jun Luo was momentarily at a loss for words hearing his eager agreement.

With a light shake of his head: “Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort, seems to regard me as a three-year-old child, your word alone is not enough; I need a guarantee from you.”

“Hmm?”

Su Mo smiled:

“What kind of guarantee?”

As he spoke, footsteps approached from behind.

Without looking back, he knew it was Wan Cangxin coming over.

He held the broken sword, having left Wan Yutang in the care of Xu Lu.

Li Xuechun and Wan Yilan had not rushed over.

The Imperial Bright Lamp Scripture naturally suppressed them both, and coming over now, beyond doubt, was to deliver hostages to Jun Luo.
