Chapter 1906 - 696: Heaven Pointing Wheel_2

"He thought his death could save everyone, but didn’t expect it was still his wife’s early demise that weighed heavily.

"And this point cannot be blamed on me.

"After all, according to his own plan, this incident would still happen.

"Now that he’s alive, he could still find a way to die.

"However, I let him choose between his own death and the death of Jinglong Association.

"He chose the latter.

"First let Jinglong Association die, then let himself die, only then would everything bear more meaning.

"He believed in righteousness within.

"He practiced the Path of Chivalry in Jianghu.

"Naturally, he wouldn’t tolerate organizations like Jinglong Association, which would kill and destroy whole families at will.

"In the past, he only thought of saving his family because he couldn’t resist.

"But now since there’s a way, he would fight with his life, at least in one last battle.

"To make him trust me more, I even sent him to Pure Yang Hall on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month.

"When he came back, he was dejected, fasting for three full days without a word.

"After recovering, I began to guide him in martial arts.

"Let him stay by my side for a full year.

"He truly had the potential.

"Refining both internally and externally, progressing a thousand miles a day.

"Once Three Extremes Sect was certain that Ziyang Escort Agency and Iron Blood Escort Agency were not opposing them, and they relaxed their guard.

"I then sent him first to Xizhou, waiting for the opportune moment.

"Because of this... he never witnessed the heroic deeds of Alliance Leader Su in Jianghu, slaughtering in all directions.

"It’s quite a pity indeed."

Su Mo didn’t speak.

Upon examining Dongmen Yong’s words.

Su Tianyang back then felt overwhelmed due to Jinglong Association’s immense power.

If fully resisted, those around him feared they would die tragically.

So he thought to end everything with his life.

Unexpectedly, the one who sent people to kill him was Dongmen Yong.

Some means were involved, most likely unknown to the Store Manager carrying out the execution.

As a result, a golden cicada shedding its skin act was staged openly under the sun.

Afterwards, he feigned death to escape, but due to his wife’s sorrow, he became like a walking dead.

The only thought while living was to destroy Jinglong Association.

To eradicate this great evil from Jianghu.

After that, he could die and reunite with his wife.

Thinking of this, Su Mo sighed softly:

"Then what?"

"The years after were peaceful.

"He hid in Xizhou, waiting for my return.

"While I waited for Xiao Liu and also heard of Su, the Chief of the Escort’s renowned name.

"Upon further investigation, I was truly shocked.

"Had I known earlier of you, Su Mo, why would I let Su Tianyang struggle like this?"

Dongmen Yong bitterly smiled as he said:

"Su Tianyang always said his son was useless.

"Simply nonsense...

"But at that time, my plan was already set.

"I observed you as an unexpected variable.

"Yet when I learned of the Three Extremes Sect’s demise, and the Store Manager being forced to Nanhai, I knew...

"You were coming.

"At that time, if you had come to Xizhou, it would have been just right.

"I initially thought Night Lord would be the best candidate, unexpectedly, a True Dragon came.

"All subsequent events you are already aware of.

"I calculated Xiao Liu at the Martial God Temple, leading you to Xizhou to gain momentum.

"Ultimately allowing you entry deep in the clouds.

"Leading to today.

"Now I fought Jinglong Association to a life and death struggle, with the death of the Second Jing, Jinglong Association is largely dead.

"After you bring out the Snake Sword Order, not only is it a token but also the ’Longmen Pavilion’ key within the deep clouds.

"Inside, there’s a collection of martial arts secret manuals and classics that Jinglong Association has gathered over the years.

"Even... a roster of his undercover agents left within Xizhou and the four corners of the world.

"You can follow the map to eradicate them completely.

"From this point, Jinglong Association is destroyed, all will rejoice!

"However, Imperial Dao will surely seize the chance to invade.

"They will make much of your ’Your Highness’ status.

"Taoist Master is deeply calculating, likely not less than me...

"You must act cautiously, do not be careless.

"As for Ziyang Sect... it seems their goal is not of this world, but of a hidden knowledge.

"You may act independently when the time comes..."

Dongmen Yong forced himself to keep speaking, his tone still coherent, but his face was already pale as paper:

"...Between Su Tianyang and I, at first we guarded each other.

"After he feigned death and lived for that year, always together, we gradually became candid.

"I once hated him as a virtuous gentleman, but he was ultimately different.

"Also because of Su Tianyang, I developed feelings for you, as if you were my own child or nephew.

"Only pity... you are highly guarded against me...

"I wanted to connect with you on the ship back in Donghuang, but Xiao Liu ruined things.

"Ah... everywhere is fate, everything is calculation...

"I spent my life seeking revenge, having no offspring. If there is a chance in the next life...

"Forget it, forget it...

"I consumed countless lives, heavy sins.

"How can there be a next life?

"Su Mo... I, I have something in my arms, you... take it...

"It’s Qiankun True Understanding...

"Qiankun True Understanding I left in the cave...

"It conceals methods...

"Once cultivated, fate cannot be controlled.
