For a moment, there was a smile at the corner of his eyes and brows:

"When did the old man arrive?"

"I heard he’s been here for less than a month."

Qilin Swordsman chuckled:

"He’s currently staying at Dongsheng Inn.

"I have no idea why he ended up here tonight. Otherwise, how do you think I managed to kill Song Qing?

"From the moment he stepped into the Jianghu, I’ve never been able to gauge his martial arts.

"Now it’s even more incredible. With just a bit of help from him, Song Qing was completely defeated, killed cleanly.

"Anyway, the urgent task is to find him first."

"Uh uh uh."

The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly.

He recalled witnessing the person turning tides with just a flick of his hand in the main hall of Wusheng Hall.

Without him to stabilize the situation in Xizhou.

His heart felt uneasy.

Now that he’s here, we have a central figure.

Not much left to be said.

Only Chen Yu couldn’t forget his savior.

Seeing that Su Mo was nowhere to be found in the ruined temple, his face was filled with anxiety:

"This, how could he just leave?

"He expended his Inner Strength to heal me and was hit by the Vice Leader...

"Now that the invader is gone but hasn’t recovered, and still severely injured, what if something happens?"

Qilin Swordsman listened and sneered.

Thinking: healing just you? Even if he heals all of us, it wouldn’t make a difference.

But recalling Chen Yu mentioning Su Mo disguised with the surname Wu, he asked casually:

"By the way, what is this Brother Wu’s name?"

"Wu Daoyou!"

"..."

Qilin Swordsman was stunned, thinking it’s truly befitting of Su Mo, if Wu Chengfeng finds out, he’d want to kill Su Mo?

Though saying wanting to kill isn’t accurate, it’s practically suicide.

Shaking his head, without saying much more, after Xing Hao had people clean up the corpse, they headed to Baisui City together.

According to Xing Hao, he wished to invite Qilin Swordsman and others to stay at the Xing Family.

The result was Qilin Swordsman bluntly said:

"I’ve just killed Song Qing, it’s not convenient to go to your Xing Family. I think it’s better to find an inn around here."

One sentence left Xing Hao speechless.

He could only agree.

Finally, after careful selection, they chose Dongsheng Inn.

Night had fallen deeply, there wasn’t anywhere to inquire. It wasn’t until the next morning that Qilin Swordsman had that middle-aged man go out and inquire if someone named Wu Daoyou was staying here.

Soon the middle-aged man returned.

Looking perplexed, he said:

"No Wu Daoyou... but there’s a young merchant claiming to be Wu Chengfeng."

"..."

Qilin Swordsman was speechless for a long time.

Su Mo has taken the son’s position as the father.

No idea how this father-son duo offended him, keeping him so obsessed.

Nodding immediately:

"That’s him, where is he staying?"

"Is it really him?"

The middle-aged man was puzzled, not knowing why Qilin Swordsman was so sure.

But seeing his confidence, said no more, and pointed the way.

Immediately, the two got up and headed straight towards Su Mo’s courtyard.

Only they didn’t go openly but sneaked into the courtyard.

Soon they arrived behind the main house of the courtyard.

Looking at the sky, thinking Su Mo should be awake by now.

Pushing the window to go in wouldn’t disturb his dream.

But before he could act, he heard the window click open from inside.

Su Mo poked his head out, and when he saw him, he smiled:

"Up so early to be a thief?"

"..."

If not for being unable to beat him, Qilin Swordsman would want to kill.

He glared at Su Mo:

"Just afraid that you were performing a grand ceremony with your wife?"

"So, you brought Lord Bei here to eavesdrop?"

Su Mo’s eyes showed disdain.

"Am I that kind of person?"

Qilin Swordsman hurriedly defended himself.

Su Mo nodded: "Whatever, come in."

"How could it be ’whatever’?"

Qilin Swordsman felt helpless and had to climb into the house with the person beside him.

The middle-aged man, upon seeing Su Mo, quickly cupped his fists:

"Greetings to Su, the Chief of the Escort."

As he spoke, catching sight of Yang Xiaoyun standing on the other side, he quickly cupped his fists again:

"Greetings to Madam Su."

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun immediately returned the gesture, then laughed:

"Last night, Head of the Escort, Chen Yu mentioned Mr. Nan...

"I was thinking, where did a Mr. Nan come from?

"Unexpectedly, it’s not Mr. Nan, but Lord Bei."

This Lord Bei, was actually Bei Changzhi, the Second Hall Master of Wusheng Hall.

For the first half of his life, he was loyal to Wusheng Hall.

Until Su Mo appeared, he realized that all his loyalty was a joke.

Landed in Su Mo’s hands, releasing him would risk exposure.

Killing him seemed unjust, as he was rather pitiful.

So, Yang Yizhi took him away.

Now, it seems he’s joined Yang Yizhi’s group.

"Let Su, the Chief of the Escort, have a laugh."

Bei Changzhi felt a bit embarrassed:

"Everyone needs an alias. ’Bei’ is a rare surname; to avoid any potential exposure, I changed it to ’Nan’."

Su Mo nodded slightly, glancing at Qilin Swordsman:

"What about you? Turning from Jade Qilin to Golden Tiger...? How does that align? At least, it should be three words... Golden Old Tiger?"

"...You’re the Golden Old Tiger. You’re a puppy lion!"

Qilin Swordsman blurted out in regret, seeing Su Mo’s dangerous gaze, he quickly changed the topic:

"How come you appeared there last night?"

"Yesterday evening, our people discovered something happened at Yulong Escort Agency."

Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Qilin Swordsman and replied:

"He was restless. Couldn’t sit still without going to take a look."

"I see..."

Qilin Swordsman nodded, but soon paused:

"Wait, something happened at Yulong Escort Agency, why worry? How did you know we opened a Yulong Escort Agency here?"

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged a look, then faced Qilin Swordsman:

"You didn’t know?

"Jinglong Association sent the Tenth Shock to Donghuang to investigate.

"All because of the Yulong Escort Agency.

"You’re likely already on Jinglong Association’s radar."
