Capítulo 1379: Chapter 527: Assassination

“So it really is him.”

Upon hearing the voice of the person requesting to see him, Su Mo was not surprised in the slightest.

Instead, it seed expected to him.

Yang Xiaoyun, however, felt as if she were in a fog.

Why would Xiangtian Sect suddenly co to visit?

Just now, when discussing the situation with Su Mo, even if the Dark Dragon Hall intended to fra soone, causing Su Mo, the new Hall Master, to lose people’s support among the Eight sects…

If Xiangtian Sect acted as the Dark Dragon Hall’s claws within the Eight sects, orchestrating this situation on Weilong Island…

Then it makes sense for him to kill Shui Wuchang…

Yet she couldn’t fathom why he would co to see Su Mo.

Her face was full of confusion as she looked at her husband.

Su Mo simply pinched her cheek, causing the lady to feign slight anger before he spoke:

“Lord Xiang, it is late at night, why disturb us?”

“Yes, it is improper for to disturb you at such a late hour, but there are things I wish to discuss with the Hall Master…”

“If the Hall Master has already retired, then I shall take my leave.”

The voice of Uncle Tian outside was full of fear.

But since Su Mo had already addressed it, Yang Xiaoyun felt this fear seed sowhat deliberate.

As she pondered, she saw Su Mo suddenly gesture towards her face.

Slightly startled, she understood Su Mo’s aning, imdiately rubbing her face slightly to change her expression.

Three parts dissatisfaction, seven parts elegance.

It suited her current status and was the appropriate reaction.

Su Mo slightly smirked, stood up, and said:

“No worries, I have not yet retired either.

“Lord Xiang, please co in.”

As he finished speaking, the door opened with a rustle.

Uncle Tian entered cautiously, bowing:

“Greetings to the Hall Master, greetings to the Hall Master’s Wife.”

Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Su Mo before speaking:

“No need for formalities.”

Su Mo then pointed to a chair and said:

“Sit down.”

“I dare not.”

Xiangtian Sect spoke softly.

“Lord Xiang has been in the Dragon King Hall longer than anyone, the eldest among the Eight sects.

“Though I, Su, have succeeded the position of Dragon King Hall Master…

“Ultimately, I am young and inexperienced, and if there is anything inappropriate, I must ask for guidance from seniors like Lord Xiang.

“So, behind closed doors, there’s no need for such formality. Co, co, sit down quickly.

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t feel comfortable sitting while talking to you.”

Su Mo smiled broadly, casually pouring Xiangtian Sect a cup of tea.

Uncle Tian, full of gratitude and emotion:

“The Hall Master is too kind, then I shall take the liberty to sit.”

He sat cautiously, only a third of his seat taken, back straight, perfectly composed.

With both hands, he accepted the teacup from Su Mo, sipping it lightly.

Then Su Mo said:

“Lord Xiang, coming to see so late at night, what is it for?”

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoyun imdiately perked up her ears, ready to hear what Xiangtian Sect had to say.

This must be extrely crucial.

At least in terms of their strategy, it is vital.

Uncle Tian quickly put down the teacup:

“With the Hall Master’s permission, I am here tonight concerning Shui Wuchang.”

“Shui Wuchang?”

Su Mo raised an eyebrow, tapping a finger lightly on the table, and then smiled:

“If Lord Xiang’s visit concerns the presumption made in the hall by the Water Departnt Master today, there’s no need to discuss it.

“Though I am young and inexperienced, I can be magnanimous and would not hold it against him.”

“The Hall Master’s generosity is truly our blessing.”

Uncle Tian quickly added, “In that case, I am relieved.

“To be honest, the reason for Shui Wuchang’s actions tonight is due to extenuating circumstances.”

“Oh?”

Su Mo glanced at Xiangtian Sect with so surprise, then nodded, saying:

“If so, then why doesn’t Lord Xiang tell ?”

“Since the Hall Master is interested, allow to speak boldly.”

Uncle Tian spoke solemnly:

“As you know, the previous Hall Master went astray in Jianghu, leading to the loss of the Dragon King Mirror.

“The forr Hall Master obtained his position without rightful authority, and we, the Eight sects…”

He spoke slowly, full of helplessness.

Yang Xiaoyun, listening, beca sowhat surprised.

She initially thought the old man ca to speak ill of Shui Wuchang.

Unexpectedly, his words narrated the struggles of the Eight sects while justifying Shui Wuchang.

Hoping Su Mo wouldn’t take it to heart and such…

However, after the surprise, she suddenly understood.

This is as it should be!

This is exactly what’s expected!

If he truly intended to plot against Shui Wuchang, the most crucial step would absolutely not be to show hostility toward Shui Wuchang.

It should be to act as the peacemaker and to display the utmost goodwill.

Firstly, to explain the difficulties of the Eight sects so that Su Mo understands them.

Secondly, to show loyalty, displaying the proper attitude, so Su Mo believes he has already submitted.

In this way, once Shui Wuchang ets his end…

Su Mo would never suspect him.

After all, who could imagine that soone who spoke favorably of Shui Wuchang the previous night would turn around and beco his assassin?

Likewise, if he truly gains Su Mo’s trust tonight…

Then the subsequent investigation into the death of Shui Wuchang would undoubtedly rely on him.

At least for now, on Weilong Island, the main reliance is on the power of the Four Divisions.

Mu Shanshan primarily, but with greater regard for Zhen Xiaoxiao, the Eight Sects Dragon Maiden.

Shui Wuchang’s death would surely lead to chaos under him.

Zhou Yuanming is suspicious and unreliable.

Therefore, by then, the one Su Mo can most rely on would naturally be Xiangtian Sect!

But if so, it’s a complete setup.

With this person manipulating from within, it wouldn’t be hard to incriminate Su Mo for the murder of Shui Wuchang.
