Chapter 48 -48: A Change in Yuliuxing?

Editor: Atlas Studios

In the following days, things really went as Yang Xiaoyun had said.

Smooth sailing without the slightest hitch!

The only thing that bothered Su Mo was that on that night, he had acupunctured the sword borrower’s acupoints and thrown him onto a tree to hide him, hoping to shake him off.

But to his surprise, this only delayed the man for a day.

On the third day, the man appeared again like a ghost outside the inn where Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were staying.

The look in Su Mo’s eyes carried a hint of caution, as if he feared that Su Mo would immobilize him again without warning.

Su Mo felt that the reason this man could keep following him and Yang Xiaoyun wasn’t merely because of his superior tracking skills.

Relying on his obsession with the sword, Su Mo speculated that the man was probably not following a person… but a sword!

However, what mysteries were involved, he couldn’t quite figure out for the moment.

Fortunately, the man had no ill intentions. He had followed all the way without causing trouble for Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun; on the contrary, he even helped them solve some problems.

So Su Mo just let it be.

In this way, with much to talk about they spoke at length, and with little to say the time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived at the domain of Yuqing Mountain.

…

…

Pingfeng Town.

This was the closest town at the foot of Yuqing Mountain.

When Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun arrived here, it was already late, so they had to rest here for the night.

And at this place, it was no longer the familiar route of the Iron Blood Escort Agency; all the inns they stayed at along the way had to be found through their own exploration and consideration.

Luckily, the town was not big, and everything could be seen at a glance. They didn’t have to walk far before they saw an inn.

Just as they approached, a waiter came out to greet them:

“Two honored guests, please come in quickly, are you here to eat or to stay?”

Eating meant having a meal and resting the feet before moving on, and staying naturally needed no explanation.

“Staying.”

Su Mo casually took out a piece of scattered silver and threw it over: “Take good care of these two old mates of ours, then get us a top-class room.”

“Right away, right away.”

The waiter took the silver and immediately found someone to take Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun’s old mates… which were their two horses, to the stable for feed.

He then led the two into the inn.

The moment they entered, Su Mo couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Inside the inn, in the main hall, there were quite a few jianghu people carrying swords and bladed weapons.

Some sat in groups of three or five; others sat alone. Yet, not one of them was talking loudly.

When Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun came in, these people all lifted their heads to look at them.

But their gazes only lingered for a brief moment before withdrawing.

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged glances, feeling a bit uncertain.

After the shopkeeper prepared their room, the waiter led them to the second floor.

On this trip, the two of them mostly shared a room.

It wasn’t to say that on this long journey, the relationship between the two had progressed by leaps and bounds to such an extent…

The main reason is that along the way, both individuals have been taking turns resting, each covering either the early or late part of the night.

There always has to be someone on night watch.

Given this, it’s truly unnecessary to split into two separate rooms. It’s not only pointless but also a waste of silver.

And at this moment in time, despite Hua Qianyu’s ‘pearl’ clearing the way ahead, it’s still too early to say for sure. Who knows whether the hidden danger from within the Luofeng Alliance has truly vanished?

Therefore, neither of them had any intention of separating.

After the waiter showed them to their room and cheerfully provided an introduction, he then said, “Alright, do the two of you wish to eat something? I can have the kitchen prepare something for you.”

“There’s no hurry for food and drink.”

Su Mo smiled and said, “Waiter, I would like to trouble you with an inquiry.”

“Ah?”

The waiter was taken aback, glancing at Su Mo then at Yang Xiaoyun, blinking without saying a word.

“Waiter, no need to worry, I’m just a bit curious. The folks sitting in the main hall today, are they all locals from Pingfeng Town?”

Su Mo said, “My sister and I have some matters to attend to here. Being unfamiliar with the place, seeing some of them with vile expressions, we feel somewhat fearful.”

“Is that so?”

The waiter smiled and said, “Rest assured, even though the Tianxia martial jianghu has been chaotic for some time, our Pingfeng Town is located within the territory of Yuqing Mountain. Atop Yuqing Mountain resides a remarkable martial hero of Jianghu, Yu Liu Sword Heart Liu Sui Feng. Here in Pingfeng Town, we always live in peace and safety. As long as you two don’t come here to cause trouble, there will absolutely be no problems.”

Su Mo quickly nodded: “Brother, having seen all sorts of people from the north and south at this inn, your insights must be extraordinary. Just by looking at us, you could tell we are not evil people and, naturally, we have no intention of stirring up trouble.”

“That is true.”

The waiter looked at Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun, the man handsome and the woman beautiful. Despite being worn out by travel, they still possessed an air of grace.

After pondering for a moment, he spoke again: “However, it is indeed strange to mention that recently, there have been quite a few new faces in town. In the past, merchants would stop to rest, and martial heroes would pass through on their way to visit Yuliu Manor, but it’s rare to have so many at once.

“Don’t conceal from you two, among the people who have arrived these past few days, quite a few bear malevolent appearances and don’t seem like kind folk. They’ve taken lodging in this inn, yet it’s uncertain how long they’ll stay. When free, they gaze in the direction of Yuqing Mountain but never go there.

“Moreover, they speak little to one another, and while they haven’t caused any trouble, their presence feels somewhat unsettling.”

“Oh?”

Su Mo’s heart stirred subtly, yet he replied with a smile: “Could it be they’re admiring Yu Liu Sword Heart?”

“If they genuinely admired him, they could just visit him directly. In the past few days, many people have come, but few have actually gone towards Yuqing Mountain.”

The waiter said this with a puzzled face, but quickly smiled again: “However, the shopkeeper is quite happy; these folks eat and drink without skimping on silver, with some staying as long as half a month. The shopkeeper even said that if this continues…”

The waiter rambled on, even going so far as to spill the beans about the shopkeeper’s plans to redeem Miss Ruyi from Xiaohong Building to work for them.

Yet these words held no meaning anymore.

They could only ask the waiter to have the kitchen prepare some food and bring it up, stuffing a piece of broken silver into his hand before sending him away.

“Half a month ago, this group arrived in Pingfeng Town, looking out towards Yuliu Manor… and some have even gone to visit Yuliu Manor.”

Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Su Mo, her brows furrowed in concern: “Could it be that something has happened within Yuliu Manor?”

“It’s still too early to draw conclusions now, but we can’t ignore the need to investigate. Fortunately, as long as we deliver the escort safely, we can ignore other matters.”

Although Su Mo said this, for some reason, he suddenly remembered in Yizhuang, the Yin Mountain Ghost Lord and Cheng Feiyu’s invitation.

Daoist Cangming widely distributed invitations, calling upon heroes from all over the world to deliberate matters in Xuanji Valley.

Then… did he invite Liu Sui Feng?
