Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 339 - 181: People’s Minds Change

Yang Xiaoyun’s acting skills were still on point, although she did start out a bit slow.

But upon hearing these words, she seemed stupefied, trying to take two steps forward, yet stumbled and hastily reached out to grab Su Mo.

Turning her head, the utter bewilderment in her eyes almost convinced Su Mo:

"Xiao... Xiao Mo... Dad... Daddy..."

Su Mo took a deep breath, held onto Yang Xiaoyun’s hand, and asked the servant, "Where is he?"

"Right outside."

After the servant finished reporting, he began to speak more briskly.

"Let’s go."

Su Mo, pulling Yang Xiaoyun, walked outside. Yang Xiaoyun took a few steps, then snapped back to reality, placed Zhaodi down, and forced a smile:

"You go eat first."

Zhaodi was at a loss for words, only standing there and silently watching as Su Mo took Yang Xiaoyun away.

Arriving at the front gate, indeed Captain Zhang was standing there.

Seeing Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun, he quickly approached two steps:

"Su, the Chief of the Escort, Young Leader..."

While speaking, he couldn’t help but give Yang Xiaoyun a second look, sighing internally, thinking about the deep father-daughter bond, that regardless of any barriers, when such a major event occurred, Yang Xiaoyun couldn’t stay composed.

Only hoping that this incident wouldn’t utterly dishearten the Young Leader.

Su Mo was the first to speak: "Where are the people from Haoran Academy?"

"They’ve been at the Iron Blood Escort Agency for some days already, having arrived just after the Young Leader had left. We were anxious yet dared not act rashly."

Captain Zhang immediately responded.

"Take us to see him."

Su Mo said gravely.

"Please."

Captain Zhang didn’t waste words and led the way.

Behind them, Liu Mo and others followed, Zhen Xiaoxiao foremost among them. Su Mo looked back and said, "Everyone stay within the Escort Agency, do not act recklessly."

Liu Mo, Fu Han Yuan, and others exchanged looks and bowed in unison:

"We will carefully obey the Chief’s orders!"

"And, Master, if there’s going to be a fight, remember to call me."

Zhen Xiaoxiao said in a deep and serious tone.

Su Mo was at a loss for words, not knowing who had taught them that.

With a wave of his hand, he led Yang Xiaoyun to follow Captain Zhang.

During the walk, Captain Zhang recounted the events exactly as they had occurred.

It was no different from what Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun had been briefed.

Clearly, the subsequent events had indeed unfolded as Yang Yizhi had planned.

Once at the Iron Blood Escort Agency, they saw several scholars from Haoran Academy standing there, visibly restless.

Yang Xiaoyun, with an ashen face, gazed at them:

"Where... where is my father now?"

"Miss Yang."

The scholars looked at one another, and finally, one stepped forward, sighed, and said:

"Miss Yang, please accept our condolences, this incident occurred abruptly, after several days of investigation within the academy, we only thought to send someone to Luoxia City to inform."

"Currently, Chief Yang’s body is still at the academy.

"But... but..."

The scholars hesitated mid-sentence, finally one spoke up:

"Our misfortune, after investigating for several days within the academy, it was confirmed that... the murderer of Chief Yang was... was Vice Dean Liu Yun."

"Uncle Liu Yun..."

Yang Xiaoyun looked utterly bewildered: "Why... why would this happen? Uncle Liu Yun and my father have been friends for twenty years, what... what reason could he possibly have to harm my father? Did you... did you truly investigate thoroughly?"

"The investigation is complete...

"Chief Yang died of poisoning, that day... that day two had visited Haoran Academy.

"And that day, Chief Yang had not eaten anything.

"Until the evening, when Vice Dean Liu Yun brought food and wine to see him.

"This point can be attested by the escort masters of Iron Blood Escort Agency.

"Furthermore, after that night, Vice Dean Liu Yun disappeared.

"Combining these aspects, it is not difficult to conclude that even if Vice Dean Liu Yun didn’t commit the act directly, he is inevitably connected.

"The Dean has already dispatched people to capture Liu Yun.

"By the way, before we came here to deliver the message, the Dean had written a letter, asking me to hand it over to you two."

At this point, he reached into his sleeve and pulled out a letter.

Su Mo promptly took it, unfolded the envelope, and took out the letter inside, skimming through rapidly.

He then handed it to Yang Xiaoyun.

The letter mainly outlined the investigation process by the Dean regarding this matter, and promised that even if it took searching to the ends of the earth, they would capture Liu Yun Scholar and provide an explanation to Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun.

Yang Xiaoyun scrutinized the letter as if she wished she could extract every word from it.

After a long while, she took a deep breath, looked up at the disciples of Haoran Academy across from her.

Barely nodding, she said: "Thank you all for informing us of this matter... I have noted this... soon I will go to retrieve my father’s body. Please... please rest for a while, forgive... forgive me for being absent."

The lead scholar immediately bowed:

"Miss Yang, we came only to deliver the message, now that we have informed you... we should return."

"Please rest for a while!"

Yang Xiaoyun insisted distinctly.

After a moment of exchanged glances, they finally sighed, "Well then... we shall follow the host’s convenience."

Their rush to leave harbored no other intentions.
