Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 382 - 195 Ziyang Divine Palm_2

"Good, good, good!"

Qi Shaoming laughed heartily: "I hadn’t expected to still see a hero of such caliber at this place and time. I’m curious to see if your bones are as tough as your words!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already swiftly approached the Xuanlong Water Village Chief.

With a lift of his hand, a palm strike was already directed at the village chief’s face.

The village chief’s expression darkened, and he took a deep breath, unleashing the Xuanzhong Palm.

This hand technique was ordinary in itself and could only be considered standard.

But in the hands of the Xuanlong Water Village Chief, it carried extraordinary might.

At this moment, the two palms met with a clash, countering Qi Shaoming’s strike head-on.

The moment their palms collided, ZhuGe Changtian and the others immediately sensed trouble.

Qi Shaoming possessed superior martial arts, and the village chief had to react hastily, relying solely on his Inner Strength — how could he compete with that?

As expected, as soon as the palms met, the village chief’s figure was overwhelmed and he was forced back to where the crowd was standing.

Blood spurted from his mouth as he turned and shouted loudly: "Lord Su, save me!"

Su Mo was momentarily speechless, but he saw through the intrigue at play.

The Xuanlong Water Village Chief, rough around the edges, had a cunning mind like a finely tuned instrument.

From the very moment he uttered those words, it was clear that Qi Shaoming aimed to bully by sheer force, intending to subdue the leaders present with his superior martial arts.

Thus, as soon as he spoke, it was highly likely he would be targeted by Qi Shaoming as an example for intimidation.

True to this calculation, as soon as he finished speaking, Qi Shaoming immediately attempted to assassinate him.

Though the two palm strikes he delivered appeared to be hugely forceful, they were in fact a feint within a feint.

The village chief’s sudden collapse was due to him borrowing the opponent’s Hand Power to escape.

And in the instant he escaped, he cried out for help, having already planned for Su Mo to save him at the critical moment.

Under normal circumstances, Su Mo would not necessarily have intervened to save such a sly character.

But right now, Su Mo didn’t wish for the alliance to come to fruition.

With his mind made up, he shifted position and arrived beside the village chief in a heartbeat.

Qi Shaoming’s palm had not killed the Xuanlong Water Village Chief, and he pursued to finish the job, only to see a young man interfering in a blink of an eye.

However, he didn’t give the matter any heed and simply sneered, sending a palm strike toward Su Mo.

Even more, because of the cry for help from the village chief moments earlier, this strike was three parts fiercer than the one aimed at the village chief.

But Su Mo remained completely still, not even attempting to block.

He allowed Qi Shaoming to strike unimpeded, a palm landing squarely on the Dan Zhong Acupoint of his chest.

"Ah!!!"

The Xuanlong Water Village Chief, who had just called for help, his face filled with panic: "Lord Su!"

He had his own scheming intentions but called for help knowing that Su Mo possessed unparalleled martial arts, the only reliable support among those present today.

He assumed relying on Su Mo’s martial arts would pose no challenge against Qi Shaoming.

However, to his shock, Su Mo didn’t even attempt to dodge, taking the palm strike on a vital point of his chest.

In a moment of dismay, he slapped his thigh: "Alas, I have caused you harm!"

He was about to rush forward.

But just then, a sound as grand as a tolling bell suddenly filled the area; Qi Shaoming’s palm had struck Su Mo’s chest, and the next moment, his complexion drastically changed.

He felt as though his palm had met not flesh and blood but an unyielding mountain of metal and iron.

Stunned, the enormous rebound force surged back through his meridians and sent him flying backwards, spanning over a dozen yards, and with a resounding crash, he plummeted into the water.

"..."

Su Mo had not expected his adversary to be so direct — to strike and cast himself into the water without a word.

Throughout the entire encounter, not a single warning, and his opponent had disappeared.

For a moment, he didn’t know what expression to adopt, so he simply patted his chest lightly.

Everyone present was dumbstruck.

Especially the leaders of the other water forts; despite having heard ZhuGe Changtian and others praise Su Mo’s formidable martial arts and his heroic generosity...

Upon meeting him, they were somewhat disappointed.

After all, Su Mo looked too young.

Smooth-faced ones may not handle affairs solidly, and, after all, martial arts are often attained through long, grinding practice.

Even if he had high skills at such a young age, how high could they really be?

Only today did they realize that what ZhuGe Changtian and the others said was true.

This man truly possessed supreme martial arts!

The Xuanlong Water Village Chief rushed forward to no avail, standing next to Su Mo, both looking at each other in mutual puzzlement.

He was just about to check on Qi Shaoming, who had fallen into the water.

Suddenly, there was an explosive noise from the water, and Qi Shaoming shot up, landing back on the deck.

Looking down at Su Mo, his expression fluctuated between light and dark:

"Young man, who are you?"

Su Mo was actually quite surprised. This man had been injured by his Inner Strength’s rebound, yet he seemed entirely unscathed.

He clasped his fist in a salute and said with a smile: "I am Su Mo, the Chief of the Ziyang Escort Agency from Luoxia City. I have the honor of meeting you, senior!"

"...A fine ’honor’ indeed."

Qi Shaoming stared at Su Mo, feeling a surge of shock. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Su Mo was surprised, but he felt some fear.

Had it not been for him sensing something wrong at the last moment and retracting most of his Inner Strength, the outcome could have been dire.
