Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning Chapter 696 - 299: Tangled Mess3

"After all, Wan Yutang has only this one daughter.

"The great position of Wusheng Hall naturally cannot be passed to his own daughter... but a son-in-law is half a son, as long as Li Xuechun is not devoid of talents, it’s hard to say what the future may hold."

This is also why Li Zhongming is so cautious.

For others, this is just a joyous occasion.

But for Li Zhongming, it is undoubtedly the path for him and his son to reach the pinnacle of power in Wusheng Hall.

Su Mo nodded lightly upon hearing this:

"Li Xuechun doesn’t seem to be particularly satisfied with this."

The Qilin Swordsman smiled upon hearing this:

"Of course, he is not satisfied; his personality is entirely different from Li Zhongming’s.

"Li Zhongming is obsessed with power, while Li Xuechun only wants to wander Jianghu freely.

"Half of the year he is not in Wusheng Hall, either drinking here or being a playboy there.

"Sotis he drinks to his heart’s content on high places, other tis he has a quiet drink under a tree.

"To be honest, seeing how Li Xuechun lives, I’m sowhat envious.

"Besides, although he and Wan Yilan are childhood friends, it seems they only share a fraternal affection.

"Wan Yilan has no feelings for him, and he has no thoughts about Wan Yilan.

"Especially knowing that all of Wan Yilan’s thoughts are on Wan Cangxin...

"So naturally, he is unwilling to get married."

"So that’s how it is."

Su Mo smiled: "Li Xuechun previously emphasized a forbidden area in the back mountain to , as if he was afraid that I wouldn’t go, but what is so mystical about this forbidden area in the back mountain?"

"The forbidden area in the back mountain?"

Yang Yizhi and the others exchanged glances: "That is where Wan Yutang retreats to cultivate, and what martial arts he practices is unknown; he rarely appears and most of the ti he is in closed-door practice.

"Moreover, he never allows others to enter this forbidden area in the back mountain.

"If sothing requires his attention, he is summoned by the ringing of a bell hung by a thread.

"We have infiltrated Wusheng Hall, and your Aunt Ling once sneaked into the back mountain to investigate.

"But the defenses there are extrely strict, and Wan Yutang seems to have taken unrevealed precautions, such that even with Aunt Ling’s Qinggong skills, she was detected as soon as she set foot inside.

"She nearly exposed herself, and from then on, she dared not act rashly.

"Li Xuechun intentionally revealing this to you is obviously not with a simple purpose."

At this point, Su Mo pondered for a mont, and then asked:

"Among the Twelfth Hall Masters, Li Zhongming stands on his own, Xing Lan and Lai Wenxiu obey Lady Wan.

"What about the rest of them?"

"The rest of them... heh."

The Qilin Swordsman said with a smile:

"The rest are quite lively. Second Hall Master Bei Changzhi is utterly loyal to Wan Yutang, Fifth Hall Master Qin Yuren and Sixth Hall Master Wen Zhongtai are of the sa ilk.

"Third Hall Master Lin Tao, Eighth Hall Master Duan Qinghen, and Ninth Hall Master Ling Feimiao are like reeds swaying with the wind.

"At tis they lean towards Li Zhongming, at tis towards Bei Changzhi, their stance is very ambiguous.

"Then there are three others, Fourth Hall Master Wu Yong, Tenth Hall Master Deng Fengbai, and Twelfth Hall Master Rong Zantang, each standing on their own ground.

"On the surface, these three people do not lean towards anyone, less involved in affairs.

"It seems that they don’t care about the Great Hall Master, nor do they mind Li Zhongming, and just do their own thing.

"Yet Vice Hall Master Xiong Fei of the Tenth Hall seems to have a tendency to lean towards Li Zhongming...

"But now it seems that all of this might not be true.

"You said today that Ding Wugong is under Xiong Fei’s orders, Wu Yong suddenly jumped up and killed.

"The situation here seems quite nuanced.

"Moreover, Li Zhongming clearly knows sothing... Today he called aside and talked to about sothing."

"Do you think it was Bei Changzhi’s people who killed Wu Yong?"

Su Mo didn’t wait for him to speak and preemptively answered: "So these three who seem to have no inclination, are they from the sa faction?"

"That’s right."

The Qilin Swordsman nodded: "And it’s not just that, he said that Xiong Fei harbors wild ambitions, appearing loyal and kind, but in reality hiding sches. Their relationship is only for show.

"The storm inside Wusheng Hall is precarious, one misstep and the whole edifice could collapse.

"So at this ti, it is imperative to avoid provoking you, the number one figure from Donghuang, otherwise, the disintegration of Wusheng Hall would happen in an instant.

"Hahaha, he’s quite persuasive, fearing that I would completely arouse your anger."

After hearing all this, Su Mo ntally sorted it out.

The Great Hall Master is indifferent to worldly affairs, only knowing to be in seclusion.

Li Zhongming is engulfed in a pursuit for power.

Bei Changzhi and his three are from the sa lineage as Wan Yutang.

Lin Tao and the other two stand indecisively, forming their own faction.

Wu Yong, Deng Fengbai, and Rong Zantang are from another lineage.

Plus Xing Lan and Lai Wenxiu, they are under Lady Wan’s command.

Everyone in Wusheng Hall clearly has their own ulterior motives and agendas.

Truth and falsehood are difficult to discern.

However, Su Mo and his group were not here to determine right and wrong for Wusheng Hall; they had only one purpose...

To find the traitor from Li Siyun’s lineage.

With that, he pondered for a while, ready to speak, but suddenly there was a noisy commotion outside.

"Miss, please stop!

"Miss, Lord Xing has said that you must not barge in recklessly!"

The noise approached rapidly, evidently the person trying to stop the intrusion was struggling to do so.

Yang Yizhi frowned slightly, and it was already too late to put on the Human Skin Mask.

Instead, he swiftly leaped up and hid atop a beam.

As he had just concealed himself, the door was pushed open.

While pushing the door open, the voice entered the room:

"How outrageous, Xing Lan might be the Seventh Hall Master, but is my word now to be ignored?

"You even dare to stop ?"

The person speaking carried an attitude of brashness, completely unreasonable, and upon entering, her eyes imdiately caught sight of the Qilin Swordsman:

"Well, well, you have quite the nerve, even daring to stop ?"
