Chapter 1923 - 702: Bustling

The Qilin Swordsman was somewhat puzzled.

He knew that Su Mo’s martial arts were supreme, and although he was proficient in swordsmanship, he rarely used a sword.

Moreover, the Seven Feet Mysterious Light Sword was much longer than ordinary weapons.

If one is not specialized in it, it would be absolutely less effective than common weapons.

For a moment, he was somewhat confused.

After all, he was not a fool.

It was just that he always lost his sense of proportion in front of his own people.

He spoke without restraint, but now as he stared at Su Mo, a flash of insight came to him.

He was just about to speak when he heard Yu Lingxin say on the side:

"Since Alliance Leader Su wants it, naturally, we have no reason not to give it.

"Qilin and I will retrieve the sword and send it to Alliance Leader Su later."

The Qilin Swordsman was taken aback and opened his mouth to say something, but was glared back by Yu Lingxin.

He could only close his mouth sullenly.

Su Mo and Yu Lingxin exchanged a glance and nodded gently:

"Then I’ll trouble Miss Yu."

"I wouldn’t dare."

At this, everyone dispersed.

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun returned to their room, and before long, someone came to report:

"The Yu brother and sister have come to visit."

"Let them in."

Opening the door, the siblings soon stepped into the room with the Seven Feet Mysterious Light Sword wrapped in white cloth.

Yu Lingxin flicked her hand, and the Seven Feet Mysterious Light Sword fell into Su Mo’s hands.

Su Mo unravelled the white cloth, and this unusually long sword appeared before him.

Bringing two fingers together like a sword, he pressed them on the sword hilt, gently flicking it, and a clanging sound was heard as the sword was unsheathed.

Holding the sword in hand, Su Mo nodded slightly:

"When I first saw it, I felt it was a good sword, and now it seems it truly is."

"Alliance Leader Su wants to uncover the Mysterious Mechanism?"

Yu Lingxin spoke directly without beating around the bush.

Su Mo glanced at her and nodded:

"I knew I couldn’t hide it from you."

"You never intended to hide it."

Yu Lingxin shook her head lightly:

"Otherwise, how could I speak so openly?

"I just don’t understand why you would do this?

"Is there something in today’s words that still remains unspoken?"

"Miss Yu might not know."

Yang Xiaoyun had already prepared the tea:

"The two of you sit down and talk slowly."

"Alright."

Yu Lingxin and Yu Qilin sat down.

Su Mo simply recounted the events again.

"Could Senior Su be alive?"

Yu Lingxin realized after listening:

"No wonder you’re seeking the Seven Feet Mysterious Light Sword... Dongmen Yong’s words are hard to say whether trustworthy, but even if there’s a slim chance, preparation is indeed necessary.

"He saved the lives of my brother and me with Senior Yang back then.

"Now we have no reason to let it go.

"Thus, if Alliance Leader Su wants to uncover the Mysterious Mechanism, my brother and I are willing to lend a hand."

Su Mo was not surprised by these words, he just cupped his fists:

"Then I thank you.

"However, don’t mention this to my Lord Father-in-law.

"He’s worn out over this for half a lifetime, it’s time he gets some rest."

"I just wondered why you spoke so ambiguously."

The Qilin Swordsman nodded: "Worried about Old Yang’s safety, I understand. Since we know about it, we’ll definitely help.

"As for Old Yang, we won’t speak of it to anyone."

After speaking, they waited for Su Mo’s gratitude, but the entire room fell silent.

The Qilin Swordsman was dazed, looking around, he found that Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun both had faces full of suspicion.

Even Yu Lingxin looked at him thoughtfully.

"What do you mean by this?"

The Qilin Swordsman flew into a rage.

Yu Lingxin sighed:

"Careless... nowadays it’s not right to kill to silence."

"He still has to carry on the lineage for your Yu Family."

Su Mo said:

"Forget about killing to silence, why don’t I ask Little Situ to concoct a medicine for him, so after consuming it, he becomes a living dead, not affecting the lineage, yet unable to reveal any secrets."

"Hey!!!"

The Qilin Swordsman was furious.

His own sister wanted to kill him to silence.

Su Mo wanted him poisoned into a living dead.

These two ruthless people together conceived one scheme after another.

Additionally, for Su Mo to say such things, as a sister... shouldn’t you refute it righteously or be furious?

Why are you contemplating?

Was I embraced back by my parents back then?

The Qilin Swordsman had a stomach full of words, stuck at his throat, unable to utter a single one.

Ultimately, it was Yang Xiaoyun who didn’t have their malice, smiled softly:

"Brother Qilin, don’t take it to heart, they’re just jesting with you."

"Alright, alright."

Su Mo nodded repeatedly:

"I’ll ask Little Situ later."

"Don’t ask!!"

The Qilin Swordsman was enraged.

The words and laughter eased the atmosphere considerably.

At this point, Su Mo took up the conversation anew:

"Miss Yu, after this, what do you plan?"

Yu Lingxin heard this and was momentarily stunned.

After thinking for a while, she sighed:

"I don’t know either...

"At the time of the Yu Family’s fall, Qilin and I were still young.

"Only remember this deep-seated hatred, the rest, there are not many impressions.

"Although alive afterward, it was just for revenge.

"Now that the Jinglong Association is gone.

"It’s due to Dongmen Yong’s actions... I don’t know whether to hate him or be grateful to him.

"But... with this happening, I’m truly a bit lost about what to do next.

"Something to pursue with all one’s life, suddenly doesn’t need pursuing anymore.
