Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 400 - 201 Rescue_2

"I, in a fit of rage, took up my blade and killed.

"In terms of martial arts alone, although I’m not the match of Su, the Chief of the Escort, I’m still much stronger than those from Forging Blade Gang.

"Yet these people, seeing the strength of my martial arts, did not engage me in close combat, but resorted to sneak attacks with hidden weapons. novelbuddy.cσ๓

"Taking the village’s old and young as hostages.

"At that time, the captured village elders took the initiative to put themselves under the knife, and only then did I take action.

"Despite that, it still resulted in both sides suffering heavy losses.

"After a fierce fighting, I killed their last man, and then I turned to consult with my fellow villagers.

"At this point, staying there meant certain death; rather than that, it was better to flee the realm of Wusheng Hall with me.

"They asked me, where should we go if we leave our native land?

"I told them, being villagers, we are but fish on the cutting board!

"If that is the case, it is better to take to the hills and become bandits; let them fear us, than to live in confusion and die an unjust death!"

"From that night on, Hu Sandao led the villagers into banditry.

"There were hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the villagers. Hu Sandao himself was illiterate, but during those two years, a teacher happened to come to the village.

"He learned quite a bit by asking for advice every day.

"After some twists and turns, he dabbled in a few robberies but always stopped short.

"He resented the injustice of heaven and earth, but in the end, he was not truly a bad person.

"Lacking the ruthlessness, his attacks were not resolute enough.

"Many times, he secretly decided to become more ruthless, but every time, he couldn’t do it.

"In the end, they left the realm of Wusheng Hall and secretly set up camp in the first place they encountered Su Mo.

"They intended to start anew and make a name for themselves in Green Forest, but in their first encounter, they ran into Su Mo.

"I was dissatisfied with Lord Su’s reputation and wanted to challenge him, and you all know how that turned out...

"Afterward, fearing retaliation from Lord Su, I brought them directly to Dongcheng.

"On this bumpy road, we lost many people, and the days of hiding were hard to bear; some also left on their own.

"At last, we found a place to settle on Tuniu Mountain.

"Unexpectedly, this place was so desolate that, after waiting for several days, no one passed by.

"Finally, when we came across someone passing by... it was Lord Su again..."

Hu Sandao let out a long sigh: "Now when I think about it, it seems heaven was against me."

His story ended there.

Su Mo, after listening, had an indescribable expression.

Forging Blade Gang was ruthless and heartless; Wusheng Hall was of no help.

Hu Sandao, it’s as if he was forced to go to Liangshan.

Just a few robberies, yet he encountered himself time and time again.

A respectable mountain bandit ended his days in such a pitiable state.

Wei Ziyi shook her head:

"In my view, it’s not that heaven is against you, but that heaven doesn’t want you to enter Green Forest and wants to give you a chance to start anew."

"Hm?"

Hu Sandao glanced at Wei Ziyi: "Young lady, what do you mean by this?"

"You are not cut out to be a bandit in the first place. Having encountered Lord Su so many times, it has led to this acquaintance.

"Why not seek to work under him?"

Wei Ziyi gave Hu Sandao a knowing look.

Hu Sandao was startled, but then suddenly understood, and was quite tempted for a moment.

But after hesitating, he sighed again: "If it were just me alone, I would certainly be willing to work under such a person as Lord Su, even if it meant kowtowing on the ground.

"But... what about the old and young in this camp?

"Some of the able-bodied can join the escort agency to earn a living.

"But there are also many elderly, weak women, and children who cannot fend for themselves..."

"That’s something you needn’t worry about."

Wei Ziyi said: "In Luoxia City, there will naturally be a place for you all. Women can wash and mend clothes to help support the family. The able-bodied can join the escort agency and will have a monthly salary to provide for. As for a place to stay..."

She looked at Su Mo: "I have a house near your Ziyang Escort Agency which I’m not using at the moment; they might as well stay there for the time being. The house is not small, and it’s more than enough to accommodate them. When they are able to set up their own homes in the future, they can return it to me."

"Really?!" exclaimed Hu Sandao, his eyes widening.

"Of course."

Wei Ziyi smiled: "But all this is still up to Lord Su. If he doesn’t want to include you in the escort agency, then just go to my Tianyu City, and you will have a meal to eat."

"Tianyu City?"

Hu Sandao was naturally not unfamiliar with it, but upon hearing this, he couldn’t help but ask curiously: "May I ask, who exactly are you?"

Wei Ziyi smiled mysteriously, about to tease him when Su Mo interrupted:

"This is the Eighth Alliance Leader of the Phoenix Alliance, Deputy City Lord of Tianyu City, the granddaughter of Alliance Leader Wei... Wei Ziyi."

"Hissss!!"

Hu Sandao took a sharp breath: "To be... The prized jewel in the crown of Alliance Leader Wei?"

Wei Ziyi gave Su Mo an annoyed glance but also nodded: "So, you should be at ease now, shouldn’t you?"

"This... with Alliance Leader Wei’s words, I’m naturally very reassured."

He looked at Su Mo, took a deep breath, then knelt on one knee with fists clasped in hand:

"We brothers here are willing to serve under Lord Su, ready to lay down our lives for him, and beg Lord Su to take pity on us and grant us a meal to eat."
