Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning Chapter 143 - 143 116 Hongyun Temple

Chapter 143: Chapter 116 Hongyun Temple Chapter 143: Chapter 116 Hongyun Temple “The mont Liu Mo recognized Ji Feiyang, Su Mo knew they were in for serious trouble today.

The Chief of Heavenly Gate Escort Agency, Ji Wanli of Heavenly Gate Flying Blade, died tragically at ho over an escort mission.

This case remains unsolved to this day.

Not to ntion outsiders, it’s said that even mbers within Heavenly Gate Escort Agency don’t fully understand the details.

Under such circumstances, instead of properly mourning Ji Wanli at ho, Ji Feiyang oddly found himself at Heavenly Blade Sect…

What was he doing?

What was the inside story behind his avoidance of Heavenly Blade Sect disciples earlier?

Moreover… it’s rare for Heavenly Blade Sect disciples to venture into Phoenix Alliance territory, why did they cross the river to Phoenix Alliance this ti?

The path we are currently on leads to Five Directions Gathering, but just north of it lies Heavenly Blade Sect.

At this mont, Ji Feiyang secretly sidestepped the gaze of Heavenly Blade Sect Disciples and walked here… what could his destination be?

And what about the black-clothed n who ambushed him on the way here? What is their origin?

Sotis, the fear isn’t in missing a puzzle piece, but in the trouble when it’s found.

Yet, Su Mo had pieced together quite a bit in the instant he recognized Ji Feiyang.

Though there were still unresolved aspects, past experiences warned Su Mo…

Not to delve into the unresolved.

His primary mission was to escort a shipnt for Wanxin Trading Company, and if it had involved personal danger, that would be one thing, but since it hadn’t… there was no sense muddling in the affairs of Heavenly Gate Escort Agency.

Thus, after administering the elixir, he considered his duty to Jianghu fulfilled, and chose not to inquire further.

Instead, he hastened to lead the caravan away.

Throughout the journey, although Su Mo didn’t do anything special, he was the one engaging in fights, planning routes, and deciding lodging – thus, without showing any particular prowess among the caravan.

Yet, the people admired him.

No matter how skilled in martial arts or how renowned in Jianghu.

For the guards, those were of no importance, what mattered was soone could take them out safely, and bring them back safely.

Despite earning their bread by the sword’s edge, none really wished to willingly throw their lives away.

Thus, without realizing it, Su Mo’s prestige within the group had reached its peak.

Liu Mo, being reserved and unassertive, sowhat paled in comparison to Su Mo.

That’s why, although they recognized Ji Feiyang from Heavenly Gate Escort Agency, when Su Mo decided it was ti to leave, they hesitated not at all.

At that mont, Liu Mo finally reacted, glancing at Su Mo then closing his mouth again.

His eyes showed surprise, but also admiration.

However, when he looked back towards Ji Feiyang, his eyes conveyed so worry.

But in the end, he just shook his head and said nothing more.

The group quickened their pace slightly, but the sparse fall rain continued relentlessly.

After the rain, the roads turned slippery and the carriage, being heavy, was inconvenient to handle over long durations.

After nearly two more hours, a squad mber returned to report that there was a temple ahead where they could take shelter from the rain.

Su Mo inquired briefly: “What kind of temple is it? Well-maintained or decrepit?”

“It’s a good one.”

The squad mber eagerly replied: “I saw other rchant caravans sheltering from the rain there, and the reception monk even made hot tea to ward off the chill.”

Su Mo nodded: “Lead the way ahead.”

Then he instructed Yang Xiaoyun and Liu Mo: “Order everyone to take shelter in the temple, be cautious and alert. Show our Escort Flag clearly. Once the rain stops, we leave imdiately without further delay.”

Both nodded and passed the ssage along.

The squad mber led the way and in no ti, they arrived at a temple in Half Mountain territory.

As Su Mo and the others drove their caravan up, they indeed saw several carriages parked nearby.

Guards were also watching their carriages under temporary shelters, and upon seeing Su Mo and his group, they looked guardedly.

Yet when they caught sight of the Escort Flag on the carriage, they seed puzzled yet hesitant to recognize.

Su Mo then glanced at the temple, which was not too large; hanging above the entrance was a plaque that read: ‘Hongyun Temple.’

Beside the main door, a little monk stood with a pale face from the chill of the fall rain.

But upon seeing Su Mo and his group arriving, he still managed a smile and stepped into the rain:

“Benefactors, the autumn rain is cool, hurry inside and take shelter, just offer a bit of money for incense as a mark of respect to Buddha.

“Respecting Buddha always brings blessings.”

The little monk’s face was smiling, though he shivered from the cold, the smile did not diminish at all.

Su Mo was rather dumbfounded by the unexpected request but, noticing the temple’s location, knew that the temple likely didn’t receive many visitors on regular days.

Just asking for money like this, wasn’t he afraid of angering so formidable person?

Or perhaps Hongyun Temple had its powerful protectors?

Considering this, he casually asked: “How much is this small incense money?”

“One cent per person,” the little monk quickly replied with a wide grin showing all teeth.

Su Mo suddenly understood, one cent per person really wasn’t enough to turn a dispute into bloodshed.”
