Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 412 - 205 Third Palace Master_2

"It is unexpected that there are so many connections between Su, the Chief of the Escort, and my Lengyue Palace."

As she said this, she cast a glance at Su Mo.

Su Mo couldn’t be bothered to expose her lies; how he became acquainted with people like Chu Qiuyu from Lengyue Palace, Wei Ziyi was already well aware.

The reason she spoke like this now was probably to maintain her image of being cold and aloof, her countenance frosty as ice.

After all, she didn’t want others to know that she was actually quite shrewd.

"I see."

Chu Qiuyu nodded: "I will explain the details to you later. Su, the Chief of the Escort, the Third Palace Master summons you."

"Oh?"

Su Mo was startled.

Wei Ziyi was also taken aback: "Does her eminence already know?"

"Of course."

Chu Qiuyu smiled and said, "Ever since the matter spread throughout the palace, the Third Palace Master has always spoken highly of Su, the Chief of the Escort.

"Today, upon learning of Su, the Chief of the Escort’s arrival at Lengyue Palace, she wanted to invite him over at the first opportunity.

"She is eager to meet this young hero."

Su Mo thought for a moment; he was supposed to settle the delivery of goods first upon his arrival.

However, this is Lengyue Palace, and the Third Palace Master being the host wanting to meet him was not an unreasonable request.

It was not appropriate to refuse this invitation.

Without delay, he smiled and said, "If the Third Palace Master commands, how dare I not obey? However, these items..."

"No problem."

Chu Qiuyu replied: "I will have someone lead the heroes to place the items properly first."

"That works."

Su Mo took out the document from his sleeve and handed it to Captain Li: "Then, I’ll trouble Captain Li to inventory the goods, and remember not to miss anything."

"Yes!"

Captain Li agreed and led Fu Han Yuan, Hu Sandao, and the Scar-faced Strange Guest who was saved on the road, as well as a group of employees from the escort agency, following behind several female heroes of Lengyue Palace.

Among them, the sight of Hu Sandao, a man of imposing stature, wielding the Golden Silk Ring Blade, caught the eyes of the female heroes of Lengyue Palace.

A few of them barely resisted the urge to make a move and eliminate the bandit.

As for the Scar-faced Strange Guest, he seemed to be quite close to Hu Sandao, mimicking his every move. Even without a blade in hand, he would occasionally make swinging motions as if he could hear the sound of the golden ring clashing against the blade.

This scene truly left several young disciples of Lengyue Palace dumbfounded.

With the items now temporarily placed, Chu Qiuyu cupped her fists: "Su, the Chief of the Escort, this way, please."

"Please."

Su Mo nodded and followed behind Chu Qiuyu.

After taking only a few steps, he heard the footsteps beside him; it was Wei Ziyi.

Su Mo looked at Wei Ziyi with some confusion: "Alliance Leader Wei, you’ve just returned to your sect, aren’t you going to see your master?"

Wei Ziyi took advantage of Chu Qiuyu’s inattention to stick out her tongue at Su Mo.

Just as Su Mo’s mouth twitched, he heard Chu Qiuyu chuckle and say:

"When Junior Sister Wei returns to the sect, the first thing she naturally must do is to see her master.

"But what Su, the Chief of the Escort, does not know is that Junior Sister Wei’s revered master is none other than our Palace’s Third Palace Master."

"..."

Su Mo felt a jolt in his heart and stopped in his tracks, stunned and looking up: "What?"

"The Third Palace Master is my master."

Wei Ziyi glanced at Su Mo: "Didn’t Su, the Chief of the Escort, know?"

"...Your master is not the Cold Rain Flying Star Sword?"

"That’s a name given by well-wishers when the Third Palace Master traveled the Jianghu in the past."

"..."

Su Mo suddenly felt his head swell with confusion.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that initially, when Yang Xiaoyun mentioned this cherished disciple of Wei Ruhan to him, she did say that she had entered under the tutelage of a certain Palace Master within Lengyue Palace.

However, that was a distant affair, and had long since become unclear.

Furthermore, no one had referred to that person as ’Third Palace Master’ since then.

Yang Yizhi referred to her as the Cold Rain Flying Star Sword, and when he mentioned this title, Wei Ziyi also never emphasized that her master was the Third Palace Master of Lengyue Palace.

It was only now that he learned the Third Palace Master of Lengyue Palace was the Cold Rain Flying Star Sword.

Actually... in the past, whether he knew this or not, it didn’t really matter to Su Mo.

But just so happens that the Cold Rain Flying Star Sword had an unknown past with his adopted father.

Who knows if there was anything unspeakable involved?

Now that the Third Palace Master heard his name and spoke highly of him... thinking about it now, it seems to be not so simple.

Honestly, before coming here, Su Mo had also considered how to face the Cold Rain Flying Star Sword.

But after much deliberation, Su Mo decided to act as if nothing had happened.

The various events of the past were only known to him through Yang Yizhi’s revelations.

No one else, including Wei Ziyi, knew that he was aware of these details.

If he acted as if he was unaware, it shouldn’t be too awkward.

But Su Mo hadn’t expected to meet her so soon...

And she was the one who actively wanted to see him—what did she want to say to him?

For a moment, Su Mo was somewhat distracted.

Chu Qiuyu engaged Su Mo in conversation along the way, and Su Mo responded casually, fortunately without any discourtesy.

It was Wei Ziyi who noticed that something was off with Su Mo.

Occasionally, when Chu Qiuyu wasn’t paying attention, she gave Su Mo a peculiar look.

That drew a fierce glare from Su Mo.

The residence of the Third Palace Master was an elegant small building within the Lengyue Palace.
