When Su Mo spoke, both the Qilin Swordsman and Bei changzhi were stunned on the spot.

"This... this is impossible..."

After a while, the Qilin Swordsman spoke with difficulty:

"Since we came to Xizhou, we’ve been secretly investigating.

"The places mentioned by the mad Sect Leader of the Three Extremes Sect, we didn’t even dare to rush into, for fear of being discovered by the Jinglong Association.

"Until now, we’ve purely been running the escort agency.

"Thinking, when we make a name for ourselves in this Jianghu, using this as a cover, everything we do would be much easier.

"Why would the Jinglong Association focus on us for no reason?"

Listening to him, Su Mo was also taken aback.

Initially, upon learning of this news, he thought it was because the Yulong Escort Agency had done something.

Only then would it have drawn the Jinglong Association’s attention.

Otherwise, the Jinglong Association wouldn’t have mobilized forces.

Sending the Tenth Shock to investigate Donghuang.

But according to the Qilin Swordsman, they shouldn’t have attracted the Jinglong Association’s notice at all.

So how did the Jinglong Association become aware of this matter?

He pondered slightly, then asked the Qilin Swordsman and Bei changzhi to sit down first.

Pouring a few cups of tea, he picked one up and took a sip.

"On the way to Baisui City, I once encountered a man named Yun Mantang."

"The Yunxia Blade, Yun Mantang?"

The Qilin Swordsman was taken aback: "How could he be here?"

"The Twelve Evils of Tianfeng massacred the entire Zhou Family for the Jade Inheritance.

"Although Yun Mantang didn’t say it explicitly, it’s clear that the Jade Inheritance is with him.

"His journey here is to seek help from the Xing Family."

Su Mo did not hide anything, recounting the previous events as such.

"Jinglong Hall..."

The Qilin Swordsman scratched his head:

"It’s all just a mess...

"We also know about Jinglong Hall, it’s incredibly mysterious.

"Old Yang... cough, Senior Yang and my elder sister always thought that Jinglong Hall was the Jinglong Association.

"After all, the names are similar, and equally mysterious.

"With such vast divine skills, if someone said it wasn’t related to the Jinglong Association, no one would believe it.

"But I always felt it wasn’t that simple.

"Precisely because the name is so similar, why would the Jinglong Association go through the trouble to establish a Jinglong Hall?

"Covering up by creating misdirection?

"But that’s just something I can only wonder about.

"And even if they wanted to investigate this Jinglong Hall, they found no place to start.

"Unexpectedly, there was even the matter of a hall master’s coming-of-age ceremony beforehand."

He spoke to here, but then frowned:

"But what’s the matter with the Xing Family?

"Even if Old Master Xing plans to attend the hall master’s ceremony, since the item is already at their doorstep, why did Song Qing suddenly lead people to intercept the escort? What for?"

Everything belongs to the Xing Family anyway.

Why rob each other within the family?

Bei changzhi seemed deep in thought, nodding slightly.

"Ultimately, it might still be for that hall master’s coming-of-age gift."

Su Mo spoke softly:

"I just didn’t expect that even you didn’t get this news?"

"It’s a long story."

The Qilin Swordsman curled his lips:

"We’re unfamiliar with both the people and the land in Xizhou, and our martial arts couldn’t be used casually.

"Especially the Canglong Bahuang Dianyun Spear of Senior Yang.

"It’s simply a signature move that’s hard to miss, feared by those who know.

"It’s just that my sister and I are a little better, never really showing what we’ve learned before others.

"Otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy to open a escort agency.

"To make a name in such a short time is also due to Senior Yang’s rich experience.

"Yet even so, our understanding of Jianghu news is still limited.

"The Twelve Evils of Tianfeng have been famous in Jianghu for a long time, and the Xing Family, let alone, is a prestigious Martial Arts Family.

"It’s only natural that they got this news."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Bei changzhi couldn’t help but cough twice after the Qilin Swordsman finished speaking.

The Qilin Swordsman shot him a look.

Only to see Bei changzhi grin:

"Actually, we also received this information.

"Miss Yu and her group even plan to get an invitation..."

"???"

The Qilin Swordsman suddenly looked at Bei changzhi:

"Why don’t I know?"

"They felt it was more suitable that you didn’t know."

"...Then why do you know?"

"Because my knowing doesn’t affect the overall situation."

"So, would my knowing disrupt the overall situation?"

The Qilin Swordsman was caught between anger, chill, and shivering.

Bei changzhi gave a couple of awkward laughs, unable to seamlessly respond to this matter.

Su Mo gave Bei changzhi a glance:

"They shouldn’t be in Baisui City now, should they?"

"Not yet."

Bei changzhi lightly shook his head:

"The original plan was for the Yulong Escort Agency’s involvement in the Xing Family matters to end here.

"With the Vice Leader leading, we could leave reasonably.

"Only then would they cautiously infiltrate near the Xing Family.

"Whatever happens to the Xing Family afterward has nothing to do with us.

"However, unexpectedly, with Su, the Chief of the Escort in Xizhou, we temporarily changed our plan."

"So that’s how it is...so, some insights have been gained into the Xing Family’s situation?"

"That’s right."

Bei changzhi smiled:

"Old Master Xing is a hero of his generation.

"But his offspring haven’t quite lived up to that legacy.

"While Xing Hao can surely handle matters independently, he only maintains the status quo without any expansion.

"And Xing Hao’s three sons are each cunning in their own ways and do not act as one."
