Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning
Chapter 221 - 142: Charging AheadChapter 221: Chapter 142: Charging Ahead
This water prison indeed held a considerable number of captives.
However, being able to sleep within the confines of the water prison, that was truly a unique sight.
Regardless of who was detained in the water prison, whether it was ZhuGe Changtian, the Qingshe Alliance, or the three major thieves from Xuanlong Water Fortress.
All stood there, honestly upright.
Yet, this hefty man was comfortably sprawled inside the cage, sound asleep…
What was astonishing was that he had not drowned while sleeping.
Initially, when Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun had rescued him, they thought he was already dead.
However, they discovered that his breathing transitioned from external to internal, forming a cycle within his body.
Once he was pulled up, his breathing naturally shifted from internal to external, reconnecting with the external cycle.
Both Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun marveled at this, evidently recognizing the uniqueness of the hefty man’s Inner Strength.
The rest of the crowd wanted to thank Su Mo for saving their lives; however, hearing him speak, they all turned their attention to the hefty man.
The scene was somewhat spectacular.
Nearly a hundred people detained in the water prison were bustling around watching the hefty man sleep.
This hefty man… seemed entirely content, paying no mind to the many gazes upon him.
After a moment, everyone snapped back to reality.
ZhuGe Changtian hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun:
“Thank you both for saving our lives, especially this Young Hero… May I ask for your esteemed name?”
“No need for formalities.”
Su Mo waved his hand: “I am Su Mo from Ziyang Escort Agency in Luoxia City.”
“Su Mo?”
Someone well-informed among those present changed their expression, the leader of the Qingshe Alliance exclaimed:
“Could it be Su, the Chief of the Escort who broke the Youquan Sect in Xuanji Valley?”
“I dare not claim credit for a significant victory; it was merely being at the right place at the right moment.”
Su Mo quickly waved his hand again.
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman, the leader of the Hongye Gang, glanced at the leader of the Qingshe Alliance, “Broke the Youquan Sect? What do you mean?”
“This…”
The leader of the Qingshe Alliance looked at Su Mo, and seeing no objection, he explained:
“Not long ago, the Youquan Sect secretly infiltrated Southwest, harboring nefarious plans. This plotting has spanned over twenty years, even having connections within the Southwest.
A conspiracy that covered almost the entire Southwest Martial World, excluding Wusheng Hall, Phoenix Alliance, and Heavenly Blade Sect.
Finally, they lured these masters into Xuanji Valley and controlled them with Fenxue Powder from the Youquan Sect!”
“Hisss!!”
Hearing just this, some people couldn’t help but gasp.
The village chief of Xuanlong Water Fortress also darkened his expression:
“Fenxue Powder? If they had truly succeeded, the ownership of the Southwest Martial World could have changed hands in an instant.”
“That’s exactly right.”
The leader of the Qingshe Alliance said with a smile: “However, at this critical moment, Lord Su of the Escort emerged dramatically. He stormed into Xuanji Valley, turning the tide in our favor. Not only did he foil the Youquan Sect’s twenty-year scheme in a single stroke, but he also thoroughly crushed the Youquan Sect.
Among the Youquan Sect’s two parts, three flags, six orders, the master of the Xuehai Department and the three Commanders of Blood Transformation, Blood Condensation, and Fenxue, were all executed.
Following this, the Dongcheng Sects took advantage of the weakened state of the Youquan Sect, capturing Qingxiu Mountain and Rain Cold Valley directly.
They even managed to push back the Three Flag Order into Chimei Forest.
If it weren’t for Chimei Forest’s unique terrain, the Dongcheng Sects would have likely stormed into the main temple of Youquan Sect.
This can be said to be an unprecedented victory in the past fifty years!”
Listening to the leader of the Qingshe Alliance, Su Mo initially felt a bit embarrassed.
As he continued, however, he was utterly bewildered.
So, after all that, there had been so many changes?
They only knew that by capturing the master of the Xuehai Department and those three Commanders in Southwest, they had severed one of Youquan Sect’s arms reaching into the Martial World of the Southwest.
But little did they realize that, for the Youquan Sect, they had lost much more than an arm.
This failed scheme indeed resulted in massive losses.
“How could such a monumental event have gone unheard by us?”
The village chief of Xuanlong Water Fortress was temporarily at a loss for words.
However, the leader of the Hongye Gang nodded:
“I had heard of this, but you only care about your own fortress’s affairs, having little understanding of external situations, which is normal. Besides, the struggle between the righteous and evil factions in the Dongcheng is quite distant from us who are above the waterways, not paying attention is also logical.
“But, I never expected that the roots of this great victory originated from an incident in the Southwest.
Now I must admit my ignorance.”
“Indeed so.”
Hearing this, ZhuGe Changtian and the others nodded, clasped their fists, and thanked Su Mo again.
Su Mo shook his head:
“Just now, the Hongye Gang Leader mentioned that the conflict between the Dongcheng Sects and our matters on the waterways are quite distant, but now it seems that might not necessarily be the case.”
“Exactly.”
The village chief of the Xuanlong Water Village eagerly nodded: “ZhuGe Changtian, what’s this about Eternal Night Valley?”
“This is a long story.”
ZhuGe Changtian said: “Now that we have escaped, we can’t afford to delay here any longer. Eternal Night Valley has major designs, and we must prevent them from succeeding.”
“Hmph.”
The Hongye Gang Leader sneered: “It’s nothing but your incompetence leading to failure, otherwise, why would you have implicated us and got us trapped here?”
“Shut your damned mouth.”
Although ZhuGe Changtian was a robust man, he was not one to suffer slights quietly, angrily retorting:
“If you weren’t inadequately competent yourselves, why would you end up in this water prison with me?”
