137: Section 137

“Not only the sect’s ultimate technique.”

“There’s also the Zhenwu Treasure Sword, the sect’s treasure of Wudang.”

“I got that too.”

“Su Jin.”

“Give it to him!”

“Boss Su, this will be your personal sword from now on.”

Su Jin, who was standing behind Fei Lingxue, stepped forward and threw a sheathed treasure sword to Su Mo.

Seeing the treasure sword thrown over,

Su Mo quickly caught it.

The sword’s hilt had a Yin and Yang fish pattern, and its overall appearance was ancient and profound.

When drawn, the blade was dark and heavy, with many naturally formed Talisman Dao patterns on its surface.

When wielded, it moved with formidable power.

Vigorous Yang Righteous Qi was gently activated.

The Talisman Dao patterns on it immediately emitted a dazzling light.

Su Mo recalled how others had praised the Zhenwu Treasure Sword during his previous simulation with Fei Lingxue.

It was said that this sword was incredibly powerful; even an ordinary person wielding it could fight against a Demon.

Looking at the Zhenwu Treasure Sword thrown into his hand, Su Mo felt a bit strange inside.

Because he felt that

this Zhenwu Treasure Sword and the Congenital Shaoyang Sword Secret Manual

looked exactly like the “sponsorship” Fei Lingxue gave him!

However, after a moment’s thought,

Su Mo felt relieved.

It’s just eating soft rice, isn’t it?

Others want to eat it but can’t.

How could he refuse such a good thing?

He was determined to eat this soft rice!

……

Su Mo did not choose to refuse.

He then accepted both the Zhenwu Treasure Sword and the Secret Manual.

“Many thanks, Chief Fei!”

“These two things have helped me greatly.”

Yesterday, Xu Miaoyin had already told him about Fei Lingxue’s situation, so there was no need for him to pretend not to know.

Fei Lingxue saw that Su Mo was not being coy but had generously accepted her gift, which made her feel incredibly pleased.

Being able to give to the person one loves is actually a great joy in the world.

Especially after receiving a response,

it brings immense happiness.

Fei Lingxue glanced at Su Mo.

“Since that’s the case, our purpose for coming today has been achieved.”

“Boss Su, Heroine Xu, if you have time later, you can come to my residence for tea.”

“Su Jin, let’s go.”

Fei Lingxue came quickly and left just as quickly.

Seeing Fei Lingxue’s actions, Xu Miaoyin was not surprised.

She knew Fei Lingxue had come to a realization.

Looking at Su Mo, who was still foolishly grinning while holding the Secret Manual and the treasure sword, Xu Miaoyin’s eyes showed helplessness.

Su Lang,

how many women will you provoke in this lifetime?

……

……

……

Days passed, and the weather gradually warmed up.

To quote Teacher Zhao:

Spring has arrived, and all things are reviving.

It’s breeding season for animals again.

But Linjiang City was very different; all the land outside was left fallow, with no one coming to cultivate it.

At the foot of Black Wind Mountain,

seven people stood there, leading seven horses.

The one in the lead was none other than Liao Ming!

After more than a month of recruitment, he finally managed to recruit six highly skilled heroes with an overwhelming sense of justice.

Of course,

an overwhelming sense of justice wasn’t enough; it was mainly due to the seven jade tablets Su Mo had given him.

“Have you finished testing?”

“Yes, the man-eating fish Demon that was harming both banks of the Yellow River turned into a skeleton just by being illuminated by the ‘Kill’ jade tablet.”

“This jade tablet is truly powerful, completely defying logic.”

“I wonder where Great Master Liao Ming obtained such jade tablets; the Demons that Jianghu practitioners fear most are no longer a threat.”

“Indeed, what we fear most are those Demons that transcend normal phenomena, aren’t they?”

Liao Ming looked at the ‘Seal’ tablet in his hand; he was full of confidence at this moment.

“Everyone, let’s stop chatting for now.”

“Next, we need to deal with this Black Bear Demon.”

“But everyone be careful; this Black Bear Demon can absorb people’s Qi from hundreds of meters away, so we must first use the jade tablet to seal its power!”

“Good!”

Everyone echoed in agreement.

Because Liao Ming had escaped from the Black Bear Demon’s clutches twice, everyone trusted him greatly.

“Let’s go!”

Then, the seven people mounted their horses and rode towards Black Wind Mountain!

Chapter 127: Exotic Goods from the Western Regions, Ice Silkworm Stockings

Inside the kitchen,

Su Mo was stir-frying dishes and muttering to himself.

“Although I’ve already earned over two thousand taels,”

“when will this girl Fei Lingxue let me off the hook?!”

“I’ve even lost weight.”

Over the past two months, Fei Lingxue had become a loyal customer of his restaurant.

Three meals a day, she required Su Mo to deliver them.

At first, Su Mo was a bit reluctant, but Su Jin came to deliver a message, saying that delivering one meal paid ten taels of silver.

Su Mo, of course, wouldn’t refuse such a good offer.

So, he happily went to deliver meals.

However, every time he delivered dinner, Fei Lingxue would detain him for an hour, putting him through a full range of “frying, grilling, stir-frying, and deep-frying.”

Coupled with her perfectly sculpted figure that could wear a man out, Su Mo felt himself getting weaker and weaker.

But with Vigorous Yang Righteous Qi converting solar energy to replenish him with a large amount of Yang Qi every day, he felt he could last a few more years.

To turn a loss into a profit, he probably needed Vigorous Yang Righteous Qi to upgrade again.

And for some reason, Huang Qingwan and Guo Lin had visited very rarely during this period; it seemed the General’s Residence had been busy with something.

This also made Su Mo breathe a sigh of relief.

Sometimes, having too many women isn’t a good thing.

However, he still needed to find time to visit them.

After setting aside dinner for Xu Miaoyin and Chun Zhu, Su Mo took the food box and left the restaurant.

Seeing this, Yu Luoniang also sprang up, shrunk to the size of a mosquito, and carefully hid in Su Mo’s hair.

She had become obsessed with watching from the sidelines.

She even kept saying, “Once I master martial arts, I shall offer them to Sir.”

This made Su Mo feel helpless.

Although Yu Luoniang was a beautiful female Demon,

being watched wasn’t a very comfortable feeling.

However, seeing her pitiful appearance, Su Mo agreed.

And he warned her that she could only watch, not interfere.

……

Stepping out of the restaurant’s main entrance,

the street was pitch black.

Linjiang City was now even more desolate compared to two months ago.

Because the Black Bear Demon couldn’t be eliminated, over a hundred people had gone missing in the past two months.

Ducks are the first to know when the spring river warms.

Wealthy and powerful families had long since fled.

Those remaining were people who had no means to leave.

Now, they could only resign themselves to fate,

waiting to see what means of survival might appear next.

However, yesterday, Liao Ming arrived in Linjiang City with his group.

Judging by their appearance, they were clearly fully prepared.

To be even more secure,

Su Mo secretly gave Liao Ming four more mutton-fat jade tablets.

This would ensure foolproof success.

Currently, of the fifteen sets of mutton-fat jade tablets, Huang Qingwan has one, Guo Lin has one, Chun Zhu has one, Xu Miaoyin has one, Fei Lingxue has one, and Yu Luoniang has one.

Plus the set given to Liao Ming.
