Chapter 430: Chapter 211: Going Separate Ways_2

Third Palace Master glared at Su Mo: “I’ve told you so much, and all you respond with are four words?”

“This… The junior doesn’t know what to say.”

“It’s fine…”

Third Palace Master shook her head: “The Tianqu Sword event may involve key matters, so it’s not just you who needs to go, Ziyi also needs to attend. Now that she has become the Eighth Alliance Leader of the Phoenix Alliance, she cannot remain merely a minor disciple under me.

“She needs to see and learn more about these things… This is also one of the reasons why I insist on having her return this time.”

“One of the reasons?”

Su Mo was startled and was about to ask what other reasons there were when he suddenly clamped his mouth shut.

He had guessed what the other reasons might be.

But it was already too late for him to keep silent, as Third Palace Master seized the opportunity:

“That’s right, another reason for calling her back, is to discuss marriage with you.

“However, what I’m saying is different from what Old Man Wei has said…

“Old Man Wei is considering this girl’s future, the future of the Phoenix Alliance… and his own foolish dreams.

“When it comes to me, I’ll only tell you one thing, Ziyi is a good girl, if you like her, keep her.”

“…”

Su Mo’s mouth twitched: “Senior, forgive my bluntness, but it seems that neither you nor Alliance Leader Wei have considered Miss Wei’s own wishes.”

“That’s true.”

Third Palace Master nodded: “That you would think this way is unexpected and makes me like you even more…”

She said this and paused, then suddenly called out:

“Ziyi, come in!”

These four words almost startled Su Mo completely.

He looked at Third Palace Master in shock, only to see this disrespectful old woman winking at him.

Wei Ziyi pushed the door open and entered, unaware of this scene.

As she approached, she bowed: “Master.”

“Um.”

Third Palace Master also resumed a serious demeanor, softly speaking: “Today, I was injured in the battle with Liu Suifeng. Now, I cannot go to Tianqu City, so for the Tianqu Sword event this time, you will take my place.”

“Yes.”

Wei Ziyi nodded, knowing that a disciple should undertake the tasks assigned, there was nothing much to say.

Then Third Palace Master took out two letters.

With a shake of her hand, she threw them to Wei Ziyi.

Wei Ziyi casually caught them, glanced at the envelopes, and tucked them into her bosom.

“One is to be delivered to Ziyang Sect, to Duan Song.

“The other is to be taken to Tianqu City, to the Second Palace Master.”

“Yes.”

Wei Ziyi acknowledged the orders.

“Alright.”

After arranging these matters, Third Palace Master waved her hand: “You may go; I am tired.”

Su Mo and Wei Ziyi both bowed to say goodbye, but just when they were about to step out of Hanxi Building, a voice reached Su Mo’s ears.

The voice belonged to Third Palace Master, with a simple content of only four words.

“Observe her closely.”

He was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Third Palace Master, but saw that she had already closed her eyes at some point.

The door slammed shut.

Su Mo pondered quietly, momentarily unable to comprehend the meaning.

Observe closely?

Observe what exactly?

Moreover, why couldn’t these words be spoken openly?

Why the need for a secret sound transmission?

This wasn’t a public place…

What suspicion is she trying to avoid?

Su Mo subconsciously looked at Wei Ziyi, thinking she couldn’t possibly be suggesting him to observe how outstanding her disciple was.

Wei Ziyi looked back at Su Mo in confusion: “What? Is there something on my face?”

“…”

Su Mo realized he couldn’t see anything.

He shook his head gently: “Are you accompanying me?”

“I can make my own way.”

Wei Ziyi’s words clearly held a trace of resentment.

The saying goes, ’what can be endured once shouldn’t be endured twice, and what can be endured twice shouldn’t be endured thrice.’ Now for Wei Ziyi, it was one thing after another.

First, Wei Ruhan was secretive around her, then her master was also vague, and several times when talking to Su Mo, she wasn’t allowed to listen in.

That was bearable, but now Su Mo said something similar?

What exactly did she do to suddenly get in everyone’s way?

“No, not at all.”

Su Mo hurriedly waved his hands: “Of course, we’ll travel together, together!”

“Humph.”

Wei Ziyi gave Su Mo a disdainful look: “What exactly is going on between you and my master?”

“This…”

Su Mo didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

Reverting to any excuse of old acquaintance now would clearly lack any convincing power.

Wei Ziyi was staring intently at Su Mo, eager to pry the truth from his lips.

Under her piercing gaze, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel retreating.

Just as he was racking his brains for a way out, Wei Ziyi spoke slowly and clearly:

“My master’s old flame…”

Su Mo was stunned and subconsciously looked at Wei Ziyi.

But seeing this, Wei Ziyi’s eyes widened dramatically: “It’s you!?”

“…”

Su Mo felt his head buzz, what in the world was all this confusion?

He couldn’t help but knock on her forehead and asked:

“Did you even think before saying that?”

“Alright… it’s not you, but it must be related to you.”

Wei Ziyi rubbed her forehead feeling hurt, thinking that Su Mo had a heavy hand, her eyes even welled up with tears:

“I don’t know much about this matter, but I do know who Duan Song is.

“My master has always been blunt about this person, but today in front of you, she asked me to send a letter to Duan Song.

“This perhaps indicates that master is gradually letting go of the past.
