Chapter 354: Chapter 186 First Encounter with Wei Ruhan

City Lord Manor!

Huang Yuan was at this mont leading Su Mo to et Wei Ruhan.

After Wei Ziyi ntioned it during the dayti, Su Mo indeed felt that it was ti to make a visit.

He sought Yang Xiaoyun’s opinion and discussed briefly with Wei Ziyi.

In the end, those accompanying Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were not the only ones.

Liu Mo, Fu Han Yuan, the Escort Leaders Zhang Li and Xiao Chuan were brought along as well…

Most importantly, Zhen Xiaoxiao was also included.

This girl had an astonishing appetite; occasionally dining out could significantly reduce the household’s expenses.

At this ti, Little Situ from Xuanhu Pavilion was also staying as a guest at the Ziyang Escort Agency, and he wished to join the hustle and bustle upon hearing the news.

Originally, Su Mo thought it inappropriate to bring so many people for a re banquet, but Wei Ziyi said the more the rrier.

Thus, Su Mo had no choice but to comply respectfully.

During the banquet, they did not see Wei Ruhan; Wei Ziyi accompanied them throughout.

After a satisfying al, as they were chatting in the front yard, Huang Yuan led Su Mo towards Wei Ruhan’s residence.

On the way, Su Mo casually chatted with Huang Yuan for a few monts before they soon arrived at the deepest part of the City Lord Manor.

The courtyard was secluded and profoundly silent.

Huang Yuan excused himself to Su Mo, asking him to wait there for a short while.

He then approached the door, gently knocked, and was about to speak when the doors parted on either side.

An aged voice erged from within:

“Please invite the Young Chief of the Escort in quickly.”

Huang Yuan promptly nodded, then turned to Su Mo: “Lord Su of the Escort, please.”

“Thank you.”

Su Mo smiled, stepping inside.

As he entered, the large doors behind him closed.

The entire room plunged into darkness, yet as a flow of Qi moved about, a cluster of flas suddenly ignited.

That’s when the room’s arrangent beca clear.

The room, spacious and vast, had gauze curtains hanging down from the columns, gently swaying from the earlier gust of Qi.

At the far end, there was a screen, behind which the foot of a bed was barely visible.

In front of the screen, within a large space, stood only one table.

Soft couches were placed on both sides of the table and behind the table sat a withered old man, skinny as a rail, yet grood impeccably.

At this mont, he was squinting, seemingly unaccustod to the light.

Seeing Su Mo looking his way, he gently smiled:

“Young Chief of the Escort must find this amusing, indeed… As people approach death, they increasingly wish to imrse themselves in darkness.

“During the evenings, I seldom light lamps; the quiet of night brings a sense of Peaceful tranquility in the heart.

“This room is spacious, and I have no fine hospitality to offer, just a simple cup of tea prepared; I hope Young Chief of the Escort does not mind.”

Extending his arm in invitation, despite his old age, his grace remained: “Co, please sit down.”

“Greetings to the Alliance Leader.”

Su Mo earnestly perford a junior’s salute before taking his seat.

Wei Ruhan scrutinized Su Mo carefully, sighing gently:

“Su Tianyang hides his brilliance, out of the public eye, yet he’s a top figure under heaven.

“In recent years, I heard you caused quite a stir; now I see, you truly understand your father’s thods.

“Indeed, from generation to generation, the Su family lineage should not be underestimated.

“While the family tradition narrows to a single heir, it is still greatly enviable.”

As he spoke, he poured tea for Su Mo.

“The Alliance Leader is too kind.”

Su Mo shook his head lightly: “As a junior new to Jianghu, my experience is shallow, still far from enough.”

“Understanding and martial arts can grow daily, neither amount to much.”

Wei Ruhan glanced at him, smiling faintly:

“In my early days in Jianghu, I was nothing more than a ruffian of a faction. Stumbling along, I narrowly escaped death several tis.

“I’ve been duped and deceived countless tis before rising here in Luoxia City.

“Founding the Luofeng Alliance on my own, through alliances and maneuvers, achieving the current might of the Phoenix Alliance across Four Cities, Three Rivers, and two bays—while not unrivaled in the Southwest, is enough to stand on our own.”

“The Alliance Leader is exceptional, naturally incomparable to ordinary folk.”

As Su Mo spoke, he sipped the tea and nodded lightly without further comnt.

After all, he truly couldn’t make any additional assessnt.

“I’m telling you this not to boast about my heroics.

“Rather, I want you to know that when I was young, I was just a brute, too trusting and careless about matters in Jianghu…

“If not for fortuitous circumstances, having survived multiple deadly incidents, could I have reached today?

“However, luck is elusive and unpredictable. If I had your intelligence and caution back then, Phoenix Alliance might have extended beyond Four Cities, Three Rivers, and two bays.

“In this regard, you’re doing well, so I believe your future is bound to be limitless!”

Wei Ruhan’s voice was old, but when he spoke these words, it was with decisive certainty.

Su Mo was montarily stunned, not expecting to hear such words from Wei Ruhan’s mouth.

He pondered for a mont, unsure of how to respond.

It was then that Wei Ruhan spoke in a soft voice:

“I have a matter here that I want to discuss with Young Su of the Escort; how do you feel about it?”

“…Whatever instructions the Alliance Leader has, please feel free to state them.”

“This matter…”

Wei Ruhan smiled but then sighed:

“You must know, in my life I have had three sons, none of whom t good ends.

“The eldest son’s body is missing, likely carried away by the river, feeding fish and shrimp.

“The second son was a prodigy, chosen by the Yin Yang Strange Guest, who imparted martial skills to him… Sadly, after entering the Ten Thousand Mile Ice Field in the Northern Territory, he never returned.
