Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 357 - 187: Only Once, Not Twice
Chapter 357: Chapter 187: Only Once, Not Twice
"Or perhaps, Sister Xiao Yun, you could join me on this trip?"
Su Mo spoke these words while already inside the Ziyang Escort Agency.
In the room, it was just Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun.
Yang Xiaoyun was pouring tea for Su Mo when she heard him, pausing slightly, a bit surprised and amused, she glanced at Su Mo:
"Why are you acting like a lovesick boy? You seem quite obsessed.
"Although I’m pleased to hear it, this sudden change of behavior... it does strike me as odd.
"What exactly did Wei Ruhan tell you?"
"...He took up a deal."
Su Mo considered for a moment before saying, "This time I might have to detour through Lengyue Palace."
"Wei Ruhan’s deal?"
Yang Xiaoyun nodded, "Luofeng Alliance has never favored anyone in such matters, even when Wu Daoyou and father..."
She paused, then continued in a low voice, "When they were acting back then, there were absolutely no interactions like this. Admittedly, father was just putting on a show, and Wu Daoyou never intended such either.
"This clearly shows... Now Luofeng Alliance seeks the escort agency to transport their goods.
"For us, as long as we needn’t worry about getting involved in the internal strife of Luofeng Alliance, it’s a positive sign.
"Inside the escort agency, it is already chaos, and outside too, observing the situation.
"With this escort task, it could really change the atmosphere here, potentially calming storms from all directions. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"It’s a good thing... But do I really need to accompany the convoy?"
Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Su Mo, smiled, and sat next to him:
"The two escort agencies have just merged into one; my stay is essential to manage these myriads of tasks.
"This is a crucial period. Unless you give me a specific reason, I definitely won’t leave."
"..."
Su Mo’s lips twitched, he did have reasons, but he was worried that telling Yang Xiaoyun might have the opposite effect.
After a moment of contemplation, he just shook his head and smiled.
It seems he was excessively anxious about this matter.
The most troubling thing in the world is matters of the heart.
No wonder he was thrown into disarray...
But impassion alone solves nothing.
Moreover, neither of them is passionate about this.
Wei Ziyi has no such intentions at all, and I myself shy away from it like a plague.
So, what Wei Ruhan said was hardly feasible.
Was I influenced by his words?
Thinking this, he smiled and took Yang Xiaoyun’s hand, saying:
"Ever since that day I was ambushed, and you came to find me, we have never been apart for long.
"This sudden change indeed caught me off guard.
"Even though my martial arts are supreme, and it’s hard to find a match in the world, I am still merely human, and it doesn’t feel good in my heart."
"If two hearts are loyal throughout time, does it matter if they are inseparable day and night?"
Listening to him, Yang Xiaoyun’s eyes gleamed: "In this life, I have long chosen you; do you remember the words I said in front of father?"
"Of course, I haven’t forgotten."
"That settles it, then."
Yang Xiaoyun smiled and said, "You go ahead and travel the Jianghu. I will firmly guard our home here. Together, we will surely spread the fame of Ziyang Escort Agency across Donghuang... No, across the entire world!"
"Alright, Sister Xiao Yun, your boldness knows no bounds, and I shall not lag behind."
Su Mo nodded, "Then together, let’s make Ziyang Escort Agency resonate!"
"That’s more like it."
Yang Xiaoyun leaned on Su Mo’s shoulder, after a moment of peace, she suddenly remembered something:
"When do you depart on this trip?"
"It should be in the next few days."
"The destination is Lengyue Palace, the previous route is no longer viable. After reaching Jiyang Ferry, we need to change the course.
"Come, let’s plan the route together."
"Alright."
The two of them got ready, not speaking further, preparing brush and ink. Su Mo ground the ink while Yang Xiaoyun dipped the brush and pondered the route.
Occasionally looking up under the lamp at Su Mo, her eyes sparkling, "I thought of a phrase."
"Oh?"
Su Mo was taken aback.
"Adding fragrance with red sleeves."
Yang Xiaoyun covered her mouth, giggling.
Su Mo opened his mouth, looked at his sleeves, "This is white, chosen by you."
"Then you are ’white sleeves’... hmm, ’white’ doesn’t sound good, how about ’literary sleeve?’ Literary sleeve dabbing ink..."
"Sketching Jianghu?"
Su Mo blurted out.
Then both were startled, looking at the text on the paper, they exchanged smiles, realizing how fitting the phrase was in this scene.
They spent some time planning the route in detail, but some places neither Yang Xiaoyun had visited.
These would need to be discussed with the escort leader accompanying Su Mo.
"Both Captain Zhang and Captain Li are trustworthy; you could take both."
"Still, leave one here to assist you with the internal affairs of the escort agency."
Su Mo said, "What’s your opinion of these two here?"
Yang Xiaoyun thought for a moment, "Captain Zhang is methodical and keeps his own counsel; when traveling, he could be of much help to you. Captain Li is straightforward, his martial arts are slightly superior to Captain Zhang’s; though perhaps less skilled in planning, he is good at following orders."
