Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 297 - 167 Yixuan Divine Skill_2

Su Tianyang had helped him manage his family business, and then introduced him to join the Ziyang Escort Agency, although back then it was only in name.

"If everything continued like that, perhaps it all would’ve been quite nice.

"After he had caused enough trouble in Jianghu, he would naturally join the escort agency and start getting busy with the agency’s affairs.

"I would’ve happily served as his Vice Leader after he took over the Ziyang Escort Agency.

"Jianghu... Initially, everyone has grand ambitions, but as time goes by, not everything has to be a fight to the death.

"Especially when you have more to care about by your side, you begin to yearn for stability above all else.

"I just didn’t expect that it was at this juncture when things went awry."

Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun were both jolted to attention, knowing that he was finally getting to the crux of the matter.

Yang Yizhi sighed, "This matter originated from an escort assignment. What seemed routine ended in the loss of the escorted goods.

"He glanced at Su Mo, "Your grandfather, along with dozens of strong individuals from the Ziyang Escort Agency, all vanished without a trace.

"How could Su Tianyang remain calm after that?

"Naturally, he had to investigate the matter himself. I accompanied him, and after months of tracing and searching, we finally located your grandfather...

"However, by that time, he was already at death’s door.

"Before his death, he gave Su Tianyang an item and entrusted him to deliver this item to the Ziyang Sect.

"And with that, he departed from this world.

"Looking back on it now... I understand a bit of it, but at that time, we knew absolutely nothing of what was ahead.

"How unbearable is the pain of losing a father?

"Yet, that was all we could do—gather the spirits and bring the old master’s body back to Luoxia City for burial.

"But unexpectedly, we found a critically injured person on the verge of death by the roadside during our journey.

"This was a dilemma for both Su Tianyang and me.

"It was the peak of summer. If we hurried back, we could still give the old master a dignified burial.

"But any further delay, I feared..."

Yang Yizhi shook his head as he said this, "Ultimately, Su Tianyang is a man of great compassion. If he had not seen it, he could pretend it never happened.

"But seeing such a scene, how could he let someone die by the roadside?

"Conflict and killing are inevitable in Jianghu. Whether that person was good or bad, we had no idea.

"Eventually, he decided to save the person.

"However, after we rescued him, we found that his injuries were near incurable, beyond the help of medicine.

"The Immortality Rejuvenation Pill from Xuanhu Pavilion is a sacred miracle drug for healing, rare in the world.

"Yet, it still couldn’t fully revive this person.

"There was an extremely obscure inner breath within his body; every time we would save a bit of him, it would kill him again.

"Your father and I, though we might consider ourselves very experienced, had never seen such mysterious Inner Strength.

"The bizarre internal injury meant that we could only use the Immortality Rejuvenation Pill to extend his life while continuously channeling our Inner Strength into him day and night.

"After three days and using nine Immortality Rejuvenation Pills, we finally managed to revive him.

"But unexpectedly, this person was extremely wary, keeping his guard up against Su Tianyang and me.

"According to my temperament, I should’ve just left.

"Your father, however, believed that the man was not evil but merely persecuted and thus distrustful of others. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"Furthermore, his injuries showed no signs of improvement at the time. It was a miracle he awoke, and if we neglected him, he would likely be headed straight for Netherworld.

"With no choice left, Su Tianyang had to bury the old master right there.

"Afterwards, we began a long ordeal with this man.

"This ordeal... lasted for three whole months.

"His condition weakened by the day, and he often cursed at your father and me, telling us to leave.

"Your father turned a deaf ear to this. Although I felt insulted, I couldn’t leave your father there alone.

"In the end, after suffering for three months, the man gave up.

"He summoned us over and explained that his harshness was for our own good.

"His enemy was too powerful; even though he had found some peace for the moment, it was inevitable that they would come after him.

"Since we were willing to save the life of someone unrelated to us, how could he let us lose our lives because of him?

"This was why he kept turning us away, hoping we would sever ties and avoid bringing disaster upon ourselves.

"After saying all this, his words became more forceful, demanding we leave immediately and not lose our lives over him, a stranger."

Su Mo sighed, "If that’s the case, then my father probably wouldn’t leave."

"That’s right."

Yang Yizhi nodded, "That’s just the kind of person your father is. If the person he saved were utterly vile, he might end his life on the spot.

"But if it were a good person with good intentions, even if it meant facing mortal danger, he wouldn’t let them die in obscurity.

"Therefore, he insisted on staying to help, and how could I leave by myself?

"The man was furious upon seeing our determination... even now, I feel he was incredibly foul-mouthed when he spoke.

"But later, when he realized he couldn’t drive us away, he sighed deeply and told us.

"If we wished to stay and help him, our current martial arts level was utterly insufficient."
