Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning Chapter 571 - 258: Stealing Leisure
Su Mo embarked on his journey when winter snow had yet to thaw.
Now, in the blink of an eye, autumn was approaching.
Having not seen him for so long, Yang Xiaoyun felt her eyes fill with Su Mo at this sudden reunion, unwilling to divert her gaze for even a mont.
Yet she wasn’t an ordinary woman; after indulging in his sight for a short while, she forcibly shifted her gaze behind Su Mo.
Startled, she exclaid,
"Why are there so many people?"
When she left, there were only people from the Ziyang Escort Agency, but now, glancing back, there were, at the very least, a hundred people either on horseback or in carriages.
Most were faces she didn’t recognize.
Without delving into who they were, she quickly pulled Su Mo over to Wei Ziyi and her company.
She greeted with a clenched fist and said, "Miss Wei, it’s been a long ti."
Wei Ziyi had already dismounted from her horse and, upon hearing this, giggled in response:
"Sister Yang, you have beco even more beautiful."
Chief Su has now returned to where he belongs. Rest assured, Sister, I have been keeping an eye on him this whole journey, making sure he doesn’t flirt around."
"Then I must thank Miss Wei for that."
Yang Xiaoyun feigned indifference, "This journey has been rough and arduous. The day is still young; Miss Wei, why don’t you join us at the escort agency for a while?"
"There’s no rush for that."
Wei Ziyi replied, "I’ve been out for too long this ti. After eting with the Ancestor at the City Lord Manor, I’ll likely have to set off overnight back to Tianyu City. I can’t delay further in Luoxia City... However, there’s sothing else I need Sister Yang’s help with."
"Please, don’t hesitate to ask," said Yang Xiaoyun, ever magnanimous.
Wei Ziyi smiled and glanced at Hu Sandao’s family saying,
"Your Chief here admires Brother San Dao’s skill and couldn’t bear to see them remain as robbers.
So he took them all under the escort agency’s wing.
But clearly, many of the won, children, and elderly can’t endure the hardship of being escort masters. I promised to provide them with temporary housing.
Fortunately, I own a residence near the Ziyang Escort Agency.
Sadly, I have not been in Luoxia City for a long ti, so the place has been sowhat neglected.
Now, with no ti to attend to this matter... I must ask Sister Yang to take care of it for ."
Upon hearing the full story, Yang Xiaoyun laughed and replied, "How is this your issue? Clearly, it’s his responsibility. Rest assured, I’ll take care of everything."
"Then, I’m grateful, Sister."
Wei Ziyi smiled lightly, looked towards Su Mo again, and spoke, "I shall now proceed to the City Lord Manor to see my Ancestor. Housekeeper Huang will send anything required. If I find so leisure ti in the future, I’ll co to the Ziyang Escort Agency for a drink and chat."
"That’s fine..."
Yang Xiaoyun sighed, "I thought we’d have fun together tonight."
"There will be another chance."
After Wei Ziyi finished speaking and exchanged a glance with Su Mo, who was still held by hand by Yang Xiaoyun, she clasped her fist and said, "Lord Su, I must take my leave."
"Please."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
Without further ado, Wei Ziyi spurred her horse towards Luoxia City.
Su Mo and his company didn’t delay further, aside from introducing Hu Sandao to Yang Xiaoyun.
Yang Xiaoyun had almost forgotten about him, only recalling upon Su Mo’s ntion that this was the highwayman they’d encountered during the Five Directions Gathering.
As they walked, Su Mo narrated Hu Sandao’s past.
Yang Xiaoyun frowned deeply upon listening.
"Using people to test his blade, such deeds... and Wusheng Hall does nothing about it?
I heard that ever since the Great Hall Master took over, it transford the old ways.
The lives of the governed are quite tough... I didn’t understand before, thinking it was just rumors.
Now, it seems even more excessive than I imagined."
Su Mo nodded gently, looking out at the hard-working people in the nearby fields, and spoke,
"The Heavenly Blade Sect may not be good at governance, but at least they ensure full bellies for the commoners.
And there’s no need to ntion the Phoenix Alliance. Wei Ruhan has devoted most of his life to administration.
Despite the Eight Alliance Leaders’ inner strife, as long as Old Wei is around, the Phoenix Alliance won’t be chaotic.
The citizens under the Phoenix Alliance have good days ahead of them.
Compared to these, Wusheng Hall is truly... beyond words."
He glanced at Yang Xiaoyun when he said this, opened his mouth but seed to have forgotten what he was going to say.
After a brief pause, Yang Xiaoyun looked up at him,
"What’s wrong?"
"I was montarily bewitched by beauty and forgot my words," Su Mo whispered low.
Yang Xiaoyun’s face instantly flushed red, and she pinched the back of his hand gently.
She unconsciously glanced back to see if her embarrassing words had been overheard.
Relieved they were not caught by others, she scoffed at Su Mo,
"We are still outside, refrain from speaking nonsense..."
Seeing Yang Xiaoyun in such a demure manner was rare, and Su Mo couldn’t help but feel elated and laughed heartily.
While his previous words hadn’t attracted attention, his loud laughter was hard to ignore.
Everyone exchanged looks and laughed secretly to themselves.
The ten-mile journey wasn’t far, yet Su Mo felt it passed in a blink.
Reaching the city gate, they slowed down and entered the city with the flow of people.
