Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 86 Coincidence

Just as Master Cang Ming had supposed.

When Su Mo saw Liu Suifeng at the bottom of the valley, he confirmed something thoroughly.

Master Cang Ming was problematic!

And this suspicion didn’t arise upon seeing Liu Suifeng.

Initially, at the base of the Sword Tasting Tower, when Su Mo met Master Cang Ming, he already felt something was odd.

At that time, Wei Ziyi disguised as Luo Zhen, enlightened Su Mo and others about what a Blood Slave was.

Among the key points was ’Beside a Blood Slave, there must be a master’, but when he saw Master Cang Ming at that time, only he was present.

Although Su Mo was indeed engaged in combat with Master Cang Ming then, Yang Xiaoyun was observing the surroundings and truly did not discover anyone else.

And even after they left the base of the Sword Tasting Tower, clearing the entire Yuliu Manor, they never saw anyone who seemed like the master of the Blood Slave, apart from ’Liu Qingkong’.

But there were inconsistencies between ’Liu Qingkong’ and Liu Qingkong.

Liu Qingkong had mentioned that there was an important figure in the deepest area beneath the Sword Tasting Tower.

However, this important figure didn’t seem to be ’Liu Qingkong’.

Then who was this important figure?

Su Mo should have questioned Master Cang Ming directly, but with half-baked knowledge, even questioning would yield no results, and might disperse the hard-earned unity of the people.

This was confirmed by Yang Xiaoyun today when she directly exposed Master Cang Ming.

Without solid proof, accusing a respected senior of Jianghu is not an easy task.

While contemplating how to handle this, Su Mo thought of Wei Ziyi’s invitation.

Although he wasn’t certain of Wei Ziyi’s trustworthiness at the time, he still accepted the invitation.

The outcome was rather satisfying to Su Mo, and upon parting, he requested her to keep an eye on Master Cang Ming and monitor his movements.

But even at that point, he couldn’t be sure that there was indeed an issue with Master Cang Ming.

Not until he saw the multiple arrangements within the valley.

The cages embedded in the cliff walls, and the patterns carved into the valley floor, those couldn’t be established overnight.

Master Cang Ming, who had been entrenched in Xuanji Valley for many years, was evidently diligently scheming.

The intent to conceal the local terrain with Arrays was clearly to prevent others from discovering it.

By now, Su Mo was almost certain that Master Cang Ming was indeed affiliated with the Youquan Sect.

So, when he saw the arrangements in the depths of the valley, his expression turned quite ugly.

And after seeing Liu Suifeng, there was no more doubt.

Liu Suifeng was indeed being transformed into a Blood Slave.

Cheng Feiyu’s words had much more weight than those of Liu Qingkong, or of Master Cang Ming, convincing Su Mo even further.

However, the method of refining differed completely from what he encountered with Master Cang Ming beneath the Sword Tasting Tower.

Three Youquan Needles, driven by the Demon Technique from the Youquan Scripture, could emit an extraordinarily eerie sound. Accompanied by Demon Technique, they destroy the will of the one being refined.

The patterns on the ground served another purpose; they are fundamentally to enhance the effect of the Demon Technique and catalyze the refining process.

Only with these three measures in place can a true Blood Slave be refined.

It is certainly not as simple as just boiling a person in a cauldron with blood and burning corpses!

Su Mo’s remark at the time, ’Tricking gods and deceiving ghosts, you almost had me fooled.’, resulted from this revelation.

However, this actually simplified matters going forward.

There’s no need to ponder over the true identity of Master Cang Ming anymore.

Instead, behind him was Wei Ziyi with a cold and distant gaze, watching over everything.

The two letters that Su Mo had Lou Jingjing send out, one was to keep Master Cang Ming at bay, making him believe that Su Mo was still focusing his efforts on the Xuanji Cave.

The other letter was meant for Wei Ziyi.

As different as the gaps in information between them were, the things one could speculate were certainly not few.

Change places, and if Su Mo were Master Cang Ming.

Would the painstaking efforts spent to produce so much ’material’ under Sword Tasting Tower simply go to waste?

He did have to stay hidden all along the way, but once he arrived at Xuanji Valley, there wouldn’t be a need for much more subterfuge.

It was only natural to have the Youquan Sect Disciples within Xuanji Valley take these people down anew.

Knowing this, there was even less need to discuss how to strategize.

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were invited into Xuanji Hut by the disciples of Youquan Sect, which made him aware that the real Master Cang Ming had returned.

As for why Liu Suifeng switched sides at the last moment, it naturally was because... he hadn’t truly been turned into a Blood Slave.

Since Su Mo was aware of this, the method to break the Blood Slave technique that he had previously acquired from Wei Ziyi naturally came in handy.

Today, within Xuanji Hut, all of Yang Xiaoyun’s behaviors were indeed the result of the strategizing between Su Mo and Liu Suifeng.

The goal was only one.

To give the people outside Xuanji Valley time to deal with the trouble sent by Master Cang Ming, and another... was to ensure that no one present could escape!

"Evil must be eradicated without exception!"

Liu Suifeng spoke softly at this moment, "Today is not just about catching everyone in one net, but also about not sparing a single one!"

The vengeance for Yuliu Manor, the shame of being imprisoned and made into a Blood Slave, showed not a flicker on his face, only a fierce killing intent that clashed with the sword’s edge.

"Hahahahaha."

The defiant laughter came from the entrance of Xuanji Hut:

"Bravo bravo bravo! There are always new talents rising in every generation, each dominating for decades. Cang Ming oh Cang Ming, you just can’t refuse to accept this. You think you’re a master among men, yet you don’t realize that you’ve been played for such a fool."

The speaker was none other than the Xuehai Leader, his fingers pointing at Master Cang Ming, his eyes filled with a mocking smile.

Master Cang Ming took a deep breath, "Lord is absolutely right. My plan this time only underestimated Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort. But what I don’t understand is... Even if you had suspicions about my identity, how could you possibly find Liu Suifeng?"

"...You won’t believe it, but this was actually a coincidence."

Su Mo smiled.

At that time, Master Cang Ming had named Xuanji Cave and instructed Su Mo to investigate.

Since Su Mo had doubts about Master Cang Ming’s identity, he naturally wouldn’t go.

But the night’s exploration of Xuanji Valley was directionless to begin with.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Lou Jingjing from Luoxing Sect during that time.

Her arrival was indeed timely.

Without her, how could Su Mo have easily found Liu Suifeng?

And how could he have arranged everything that was happening at present?

It’s indeed quite amusing to say, after all who would have thought, that within Yizhuang, the person whose life Yang Xiaoyun saved out of righteousness, could provide such a great convenience to Su Mo within Xuanji Valley.

Without her, Su Mo really would have had to spend a great deal of effort, and still might not have been able to find the place.

"What a coincidence..."

Master Cang Ming sneered, "Whether it’s a coincidence or not, you’d best think thrice before acting. The lives of everyone here are just a thought away from us! Don’t forget, they still have Fenxue Powder within them."

"Scoundrels!"

"Demon Path ruffians, despicable tricks!"

"Do you think I fear death? If you have the guts, then come on!!!"

While these seated were unable to move at all, they could still open their mouths to curse.

However, Su Mo waved his hand, "Gentlemen, please calm yourselves. Master was joking. Ever since the junior came to this Xuanji Valley, I found Master Liu from the very first day. With three whole days’ time, how could I have done too little? As for the substance in the incense, I may not be able to change that. However, the tea which everyone drank, I admit to have slightly tampered with."

"...What?"
