Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning Chapter 246 - 246 150 A Gentlemans Word2

Chapter 246: Chapter 150 A Gentleman’s Word_2 Chapter 246: Chapter 150 A Gentleman’s Word_2 Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged glances, both aware that this marriage proposal must have encountered so unexpected turn of events.

Yet now, they also understood why Chu Qiuyu was embarrassed to speak of it. The love story of the elders, leading to a rift between the two sects, was indeed sothing difficult to address properly.

As expected, they then heard Chu Qiuyu continue:

“When he ca to visit, everyone in Lengyue Palace was delighted.

“Especially once his intentions were known, many disciples sneaked around the grand hall, peering surreptitiously, simply waiting for the joyous news to spread.

“Unexpectedly, when he revealed his purpose, an elder in our sect beca furious.

“Only then did he reveal the truth of what happened twenty years ago.

“It turns out… that elder in our sect had once gone to eradicate the Demon Sect upon our master’s orders, alongside a senior from Ziyang Sect.

“After that, they t another person.

“This person was a sworn brother to the senior of Ziyang Sect and was known for his righteousness and heroic spirit.

“Upon hearing that the Demon Sect was running rampant in Dongcheng, he felt it was his responsibility to join them in vanquishing evil.

“On that journey, as the young n and won spent day and night together, it led to the senior from Ziyang Sect falling in love with our Lengyue Palace elder.

“However… the elder from our Lengyue Palace had fallen for that gallant hero.

“At the ti of that eting, our forr elder only thought they had co together, never expecting that it was just the senior from Ziyang Sect alone.

“That senior from Ziyang Sect ca actually to convey a ssage on behalf of the gallant hero.

“It turned out that the hero already had a family a long ti ago, so although he realized our elder had feelings for him, he could not reciprocate.

“That was why he had the senior from Ziyang Sect deliver eight words: ‘Grateful for your love, but I cannot accept.’

Chu Qiuyu took a long sigh before continuing, “For twenty years since then, our elder has never t that hero again.

“The senior from Ziyang Sect knew full well our elder’s heartfelt yearning, thus also remained unmarried for a self-torturous twenty years.

“After hesitating for twenty years he finally mustered the courage to propose, only to be rejected once more.

“As junior disciples, it is not our place to overly judge the actions of our elders.

“It’s just that… because of this, the junior disciples of both Lengyue Palace and Ziyang Sect are implicated, finding encounters awkward, further complicating any casual interactions.

“Therefore, that night upon hearing about the connection between Su, the Chief of the Escort, and Ziyang Sect, I felt…”

At this point, she clasped her hands together, bowing deeply: “I am truly ashad, and I hope Lord Su does not take offense.”

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun stepped aside to avoid accepting the bow.

“Heroine Chu need not do this.”

Su Mo spoke softly: “Just as you said, we should not haphazardly discuss the actions of our elders.

“The two families are simply a bit displeased over this matter, it’s not such a serious issue. Perhaps in a few more years, when this has faded, it will just beco a thing of the past.”

“Right.”

Chu Qiuyu smiled and said, “It’s just that thinking back on my actions that night, I always felt I was unfair to you both. Now that I have explained this, my heart feels much lighter.”

After a few more exchanges of pleasantries, they went their separate ways.

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun looked at each other, montarily at a loss for words.

Who would have thought that on this journey, they would hear of a romantic tale involving the elders of Lengyue Palace and Ziyang Sect?

It was a love triangle.

The elder from Lengyue Palace had loved a married man, suffering in solitude for twenty years.

The elder from Ziyang Sect was infatuated with Lengyue Palace’s elder, equally self-torturing for twenty years.

But who knows where that gallant hero is now?

Yang Xiaoyun reflected for a mont then said, “Do you think that if that hero had married the elder from Lengyue Palace back then, things would have turned out differently?”

“Hmm?”

Su Mo glanced at her: “What do you an?”

“Just think about it, the elder from Lengyue Palace was deeply infatuated, resulting in suffering.

“If she could have had her wish fulfilled, she would naturally be happy.

“The elder from Ziyang Sect wasn’t the type to pester endlessly; if he had seen such an outco, maybe he would have let go in his heart.

“In this way, none of them would have been pained.”

After hearing her words, Su Mo shook his head: “That’s not right…

“You only consider the self-tornt of these two elders, but have you thought about what the hero’s wife must have felt?

“A perfectly loving couple, the husband goes out to perform righteous deeds, only to return with another woman?

“Where’s the justice in that?

“Moreover, if this sets a precedent, should the hero marry every woman who fancies him?”

“A man of honor with multiple wives and concubines is quite common.”

“Common?”

Su Mo gave Yang Xiaoyun a glance: “When my father encountered disaster in Jianghu, my mother grieved day and night until her demise, yet she never thought to remarry… Uncle Yang, after my aunt’s death, also never remarried, let alone took multiple wives or concubines.”

“That…”

Yang Xiaoyun suddenly turned to Su Mo: “Xiao Mo, promise one thing!”

“Hmm?”

Su Mo was startled: “What is it?”

“The two of us, we’re both entangled in the affairs of Jianghu.”

Yang Xiaoyun said, “Jianghu is full of deceit and endless strife, your martial arts are formidable and you’re careful in thought, of course, you fear no danger.

“But… if sothing were to happen to in the future, I an if… if sothing unforeseeable were to befall , you must not suffer on account of it, nor should you remain alone…”
