Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 387 - 197 Speaking Frankly

Su Mo’s thinking was actually very straightforward.

I hold no feelings for you, and you have none for me.

Since that’s the case, why bother hiding and skirting around the issue?

The thoughts of the elders are their own, but there shouldn’t be anything the youth cannot discuss.

As long as Su Mo and Wei Ziyi are firm in their stance, it wouldn’t matter how others decide or act; it would merely be scratching an outside itch.

Moreover, such matters are the scariest when concealed.

Some things, if not spoken openly, might become very unpredictable.

Beating around the bush could just lead to an unclear mess.

In the end, if Wei Ziyi were to learn about this matter, how would she view him upon a reflection?

Therefore, Su Mo simply laid it out for her.

The sounds of water were continuous, and under the starry night, one could see the sails of the various camps Along the River fluttering in the wind.

Wei Ziyi’s eyes suddenly bulged out, round as beads.

She thought she had heard wrong.

"What did you say?"

Wei Ziyi asked with wide-eyed disbelief.

"...I’m saying, your grandfather is planning to find you a husband and has fixed his sights on me as the prized catch."

Having said it once, repeating it wasn’t a big deal.

Wei Ziyi was stunned for a moment, then frowned.

Her initial considerations were not of romantic affections.

Indeed, at Wei Ruhan’s level, in the situation of Hua Qianyu.

When deliberating matters, where was there room for childish entanglements?

What she looked at was the bigger picture.

Although recently Wei Ziyi had revealed more of her true nature around Su Mo,

it was only because at this moment she didn’t need to ponder the overall situation of the Luofeng Alliance.

Nor did she have to mull over the dangers of Jianghu.

With Su Mo standing before her, all storms naturally calmed.

She was pleased with the leisure and let her guard down, revealing her true self.

However, at this moment, after hearing Su Mo’s words, her first thought was, what did Wei Ruhan’s decision mean for the Luofeng Alliance?

The answer was evident—it meant a powerful reinforcement!

How high Su Mo’s martial arts were had been entirely apparent during the battle in Xuanji Valley.

The recent battle had once again refreshed Wei Ziyi’s impression of Su Mo.

How he cultivated his martial arts was a mystery, and the man himself seemed like an unfathomable abyss.

No one knew what kind of depths were hidden beneath that serene surface.

Such a strong reinforcement, if it could be integrated into the Luofeng Alliance, would absolutely benefit the Alliance’s development.

Although... Su Mo was just a minor Escort Leader of an escort agency.

But was he an average Escort Leader?

Inside Xuanji Valley, a good part of the Southwest Martial World owed Su Mo a huge debt of gratitude.

With his command, countless would heed the call and follow his orders.

Looking at today, a mere gesture from him made the river’s big thieves eagerly bow in respect.

With Ziyang Escort travelling this route, even a mere squad member, waving the banner of Ziyang Escort, could travel unobstructed Along the River.

And Su Mo... having become the Chief of Ziyang Escort Agency, it has only been just over half a year.

In just this half a year, he had already reached such a stature.

Looking to the future, his achievements were boundless.

If he truly could marry her, then a hundred years after Wei Ruhan, the Luofeng Alliance would be even more stable.

Possibly even stronger than when Wei Ruhan was present!

The name Su Mo would be like the Stabilizing Anchor; anyone who wanted to disturb the Luofeng Alliance or touch a hair on her head would have to consider if the Anchor would land on their head.

With a little thought, Wei Ziyi understood the logic.

Yet to say she felt repulsed... that was truly not the case.

And liking him was even less likely.

She had no intention of giving up her youth and future, as the little princess of the Luofeng Alliance, she had never considered matters of marriage.

She had more important things to do than to find someone she could live with for a lifetime.

The great enterprise of the Luofeng Alliance needed continuation, and its future still rested on her shoulders.

And of course, there was the mountain of her father’s vengeance bearing down on her.

What she had been enduring all this time was not what a woman of her age should be burdened with.

And marriage... even though she had never thought of it before.

Now it seemed, it was but a bargaining chip.

Now, Wei Ruhan was merely placing this chip on Su Mo.

Even if it wasn’t him, it would be someone else.

In her position, she could ponder the fate of the Luofeng Alliance, even contemplate the entire world, but the only thing... she couldn’t consider was herself.

At this thought, Wei Ziyi let out a light sigh and glanced at Su Mo:

"What do you think?"

"..."

Su Mo was momentarily stunned, Wei Ziyi’s reaction was much calmer than expected...

But this did not affect Su Mo’s stance, as he smiled lightly: "I have Sister Xiao Yun."

In six simple words, his intentions were very clear.

"For a man, having multiple wives and concubines is common practice."

Wei Ziyi stated: "Yang Family Sister is so deeply in love with you, she probably wouldn’t mind, would she?"

"..."

Su Mo felt something was off in her words; he had outright spoken to seek an ally.

Why did it feel like he had just made an enemy?

He shook his head gently: "Hold on... Miss Wei, what do you mean by that?"
