Chapter 915: Chapter 372: Sea Witch of the Four Oceans (Part 3)
“Hold on.”
Su Mo and the black-clothed man spoke almost simultaneously.
The black-clothed man glanced at Su Mo and nodded slightly.
Su Mo also smiled.
Yet, it left Wang Chaosheng somewhat confused:
“What’s going on?”
“Family Head, it’s better not to recklessly open something brought by a stranger.”
The black-clothed man stepped forward and took the letter into his hand.
After a brief inspection, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“Is there something peculiar about this envelope?”
Wang Chengying asked.
“Through the light, apart from the letter, there seems to be some powder as well.”
Upon saying this, he suddenly shouted towards the door:
“Someone, come.”
Immediately a few guards from the Bohai Association entered from outside.
The black-clothed man pointed at the servant who delivered the letter:
“Take him away, find him a room to rest temporarily. If nothing happens by tomorrow, he can be released.”
The servant was taken aback:
“I, I’m innocent… Association Leader, it has nothing to do with me, I’m innocent!”
Seeing this, Wang Chaosheng glanced at the black-clothed man, hoping he could provide an explanation.
Then he heard the man speak:
“There’s something peculiar inside the envelope; it’s hard to say about the outside of the envelope as well.
“I have this pair of Mystical Silk Gloves to avoid any poison, so it’s fine for me.
“But for him, it’s difficult to say…
“If something really happens, better let him quietly die in the room than terrifying others outside and causing rumors to spread.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Chaosheng was enlightened and nodded immediately:
“You are indeed thoughtful, but we also can’t just let him die; find a doctor to have a look at him.
“If it’s nothing, all the better.”
After saying this, he gave a glance to the servant whose face had turned pale with fright, and sighed gently:
“You need not worry, you might not be poisoned.
“I will arrange for someone to treat you, but if it’s hopeless, dying for the Wang Family, I will take good care of your family, they will not be left without support.”
Upon hearing this, the servant knelt to the ground with a thud:
“Thank you, Association Leader, thank you, Association Leader!”
“The Association Leader is benevolent.”
Aside from Su Mo’s group and Wang Chengying, everyone else clasped their fists in admiration.
Wang Chaosheng waved his hand:
“Take him away then…”
After saying this, he turned to the black-clothed man:
“How should this letter be handled then?”
“Association Leader, please wait a moment.”
After the black-clothed man said this, he had everyone retreat a distance, and he cautiously opened the letter.
He held his breath throughout the entire process of opening the letter.
Finally, as he unfolded the letter, he began to read aloud:
“If you wish for your daughter to return safely, tonight at midnight, bring the Poison Dragon Pill…”
At this point, his face changed drastically, he paused slightly, and then continued:
“Bring the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture to the Mountain God Temple on Qiuping Mountain for exchange. If you comply, your daughter will remain unharmed.
“Otherwise… we will take her off Pingyang Island and sell her to the Tianxiang Pavilion.
“Signed, Yin Xiaoyu.”
“Yin Xiaoyu!?”
“Sihai Witch!”
“How could it be her?”
As these three words were spoken, everyone present turned pale.
Su Mo, listening, was quite confused, not knowing who this Yin Xiaoyu was.
Why did everyone present turn pale upon hearing her name?
Beside him, Ding Luo, seeing this, hurriedly explained in a low voice:
“Chief Su might not know, although the name Yin Xiaoyu sounds harmless, she is a true female demon.
“It’s said that she originally came from Tianxiang Pavilion.
“The so-called Tianxiang Pavilion is actually a large ship on Nanhai.
“This ship is entirely staffed by women.
“Wherever they go, they flaunt their allure; as long as you have enough silver, even the Pavilion Master of Tianxiang would offer her bed.
“Yin Xiaoyu was reportedly sold to Tianxiang Pavilion as a young girl because she possessed Heavenly Fragrance and National Beauty, her glamour became well known far and wide.
“Many people have been willing to spend a fortune for just a night with her.
“Who would have thought that she eventually fell in love with a common fisherman.
“No one knows how these two met; to be together, they decided to elope from the ship.
“In the end, during the escape, the fisherman was killed by the people from Tianxiang Pavilion.
“Yin Xiaoyu was also severely injured, barely escaping with her life, but no one knew where she went.
“Only when she reappeared did she not only possess unmatched martial arts skills, she also sought revenge against Tianxiang Pavilion.
“She nearly burned Tianxiang Pavilion to the ground.
“The details of what happened inside, we outsiders don’t know.
“All that is known is that after that battle, upon hearing the name Yin Xiaoyu, Tianxiang Pavilion would flee in terror.
“After that battle, Yin Xiaoyu acquired a ship, proclaimed herself as the Sihai Witch, and began raiding at sea, committing all sorts of evil.
“Since her return, her personality drastically changed.
“Whether it be merchant ships, pirates, or even island villages, hardly anyone survived where she passed.
“There are also rumors that she is skilled in dual cultivation evil techniques, but it is unknown how true this is.
“However, her martial arts are formidable, and it would be difficult for our Bohai Association to become adversaries with her.”
His explanation was so detailed, hoping to ask Su Mo for help.
However, he dared not say it outright.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo nodded thoughtfully and glanced at Wei Ziyi.
Wei Ziyi blinked: “What?”
“…Nothing.”
Su Mo shook his head and asked Ding Luo:
“Have you seen the other young ladies who traveled with me?”
“Ah?”
Ding Luo paused, hurriedly sending someone to inquire, and soon someone returned to report that the young ladies were not seen returning to the hall to dine.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo frowned.
As he pondered, someone approached and said in a low voice:
“Here is a letter for Master Su.”
Su Mo blinked, immediately taking it.
After inspecting it slightly, he opened the envelope, scanned through it quickly, and then chuckled, turning to glance at Wang Chaosheng and the others.
At this moment, these people were also in a difficult situation.
Wang Chengying even jumped with frustration, saying:
“The Poison Dragon Pill Scripture again, this Sea Snake Zeng Chou attacked our Bohai Trading Company for it.
“We almost perished at sea because of it.
“And now for this, they’ve kidnapped my sister…
“But, where on earth can we get a Poison Dragon Pill Scripture for them?”
After saying this, he anxiously paced back and forth in the room.
Then he heard Wang Chaosheng say hesitantly:
“Well… my son, if… I’m saying if.
“If we really had the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture, what should we do?
“How could we ensure that after providing the Poison Dragon Pill Scripture, they would release Wan’er?”
