Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 370 - 191: Conjecture_2

Wu Daoyou being one of Wei Ruhan’s men is already an open secret.

With that in the open, where is there any room for contention?

Apart from Zhou Qingchuan, who was personally killed by me, there are still six other contenders for the position of Alliance Leader of the Luofeng Alliance.

Hua Qianyu, Wei Ziyi, Wu Daoyou, and the recently joined Chi Lu, as well as the Alliance Hierarchs who have thrown in their lot with Wu Daoyou, these five are now all in the same boat.

As for the last one, in the face of this overwhelming trend, they have no choice but to submit or face self-destruction.

Thus, this play has actually come to its climax.

But why hasn’t the curtain fallen yet?

When Wei Ziyi first mentioned this matter at Ziyang Escort Agency, Su Mo felt it was strange.

And now, looking at the scene before him, he couldn’t help but speculate.

Does Wei Ruhan... know something?

Venturing further into conjecture...

The struggle for power within the Luofeng Alliance is fierce, everyone knows that.

However, in the entire process of struggle, when would be the most intense, the most distracted time?

Naturally, it would be the moment of deciding the final outcome.

At that time, no one dares to be distracted.

Isn’t that a perfect opportunity for those who want to plot against the Luofeng Alliance?

But what if, this opportunity, is actually a seductive trap?

At this moment, the fight for the position of Alliance Leader of the Luofeng Alliance has actually come to an end — it’s merely a matter of declaring it or not.

To declare it, would settle everything.

Not to do so... at least to outsiders, it would seem like the perfect chance for those with ulterior motives!

Thinking this, Su Mo couldn’t help but let out a light sigh.

If his suspicions were true, then one could not help but say, Wei Ruhan... truly is a crafty old fox.

Even internal strife can be used to plan and deploy tactics, to stabilize the entirety of the Luofeng Alliance.

What’s more... Su Mo even feels that the old fox’s schemes may go far beyond this.

As for another matter he thought of...

His thoughts wandering, he looked up at Wei Ziyi.

Wei Ziyi felt a bit peculiar being watched, and subconsciously touched her face: "What’s wrong?"

"I’m thinking..."

Su Mo pondered for a moment. Since Wei Ruhan and his people had always refrained from telling Wei Ziyi the truth, it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to reveal it recklessly at this time.

He smiled immediately: "I’m thinking, these people hiding here, even if they do want to plot against the Luofeng Alliance, what can they really scheme?"

"Hmm?"

Wei Ziyi was startled, then nodded after a bit of thought: "Indeed... This place is far from Luoxia City and also some distance from Zhongfu City. It’s a spot between the two cities...

"However, one cannot underestimate it. If the time is prearranged, and people are secretly hiding, they could gather a large force at once around Luoxia City."

"But... how many people do you think they would station here?

"And how many of them are unknown to others?"

Su Mo said: "Think about it, we left Luoxia City and were en route to Dongcheng. We randomly picked an inn to stay and happened to come across them.

"Watching their actions, they don’t seem at all concerned with hiding.

"Isn’t that odd?

"To act covertly, one must deceive others; at the slightest disturbance, they should vanish thousands of miles away.

"But look at them...

"Occupying an inn, killing people, their methods are cruel, they stop at nothing.

"Are these the kind of people who genuinely want to keep a low profile to plot something major?"

"You’re saying the Blade user lied?"

Wei Ziyi’s eyebrows lightly lifted.

Su Mo smiled: "Not necessarily the Blade user lying..."

"..."

Looking at Su Mo again, Wei Ziyi felt somewhat puzzled in her eyes: "The Blade user didn’t lie, so he was really acting under Ren Xiongfei’s instructions, waiting for an opportunity here?

"But you also said... their actions do not fit with subterfuge. If there were a plot, they should be extremely cautious...

"The Blade user didn’t lie, Ren Xiongfei did give instructions? So then..."

Wei Ziyi reached this point in her thoughts, her eyebrows deeply furrowed.

It felt like a knot in her mind that she couldn’t untangle.

Yet turning to look at Su Mo, she saw him with a smiling face watching her.

"... are you laughing at me?"

Wei Ziyi was at a loss for words: "Lord Su, if you have something to say, just teach me directly!"

"Not at all."

Su Mo waved his hand: "We each have our own opinions. I am merely offering another possibility. Take it as a reference."

"I’d like to hear the details."

Wei Ziyi puffed her cheeks, feeling that this person seemed loyal but in reality was quite sly.

Talking about expressing one’s own views, but clearly, he had discovered a problem that she had not, letting her speak first was just to see her make a fool of herself.

Su Mo ignored the look in Wei Ziyi’s eyes, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"This matter... perhaps we should think more about Wusheng Hall.

"Wusheng Hall dominates the west of Donghuang; it is a colossal entity.

"Its foundation spreads into the Twelfth Halls, overflowing with experts, not an exaggeration to say...

"The disciples within the halls are countless!

"For such a faction, if they truly had a plot, and needed to act in secrecy, would they engage people like that Blade user?

"Who could be more reliable than their own people from Wusheng Hall?"

"That makes sense."

Wei Ziyi said: "But if the people of Wusheng Hall were to come to the Luofeng Alliance, it would surely raise suspicion."
