The Eternal Holy King
Chapter 26: Hearing About the Secret

This was the first meeting between Su Zimo and the City Lord of Cang Lang.

It was extremely difficult to read the thoughts of the City Lord just by looking at his eyes. He was expressionless and seemed to be very deep and cunning.

Luo Tianwu also sized up Su Zimo at the same time.

His first impression of Su Zimo was a cultured and polite man; no different from any other scholar.

If he had not known earlier much of Su Zimo's actions in Ping Yang City, it was extremely difficult for Luo Tianwu to imagine that a weak-looking and weak scholar could actually conquer two great family clans!

Immediately after, he sensed that Su Zimo was mysterious and unfathomable!

The views of both sides collided in the air. Immediately after, Luo Tianwu revealed a smile first. He said in a loud and clear voice, “I've long heard of the famous Second Young Master Su. We finally met today. Please sit down."

From the side, a hunchbacked old servant dressed in a gray robe walked over. Grey-haired, she has a thin face and cloudy eyes. He brought a chair and placed it carefully in front of Su Zimo.

Su Zimo's gaze looked relaxed as he swept over the old servant. He did not refuse and sat down.

Luo Tianwu was very polite to her. However, there is more in this case and it becomes more clear that this meeting is not so simple.

Something happens when something happens out of the ordinary.

What was the status, strength, and prestige of a City Lord?

Luo Tianwu had never invited Su Zimo when the latter had achieved a scientific award before, let alone his current inferior status.

The gray-robed old servant stood beside Su Zimo and filled a cup of tea for Su Zimo respectfully.

Su Zimo's mind was so deep as he stared intently at the gray-robed old servant. With an invisible smile, he said, “You served me tea. This must be hard for you."

The gray-robed old servant paused for a moment. He placed the teapot on the table expressionlessly. After which, he retreated to stand behind Luo Tianwu and did not say a word.

After hearing this, a beam of light flashed in Luo Tianwu's eyes but disappeared after a while.

Su Zimo's words seemed to be unintentional but the others were unsure of the implied meaning.

He could mock himself for his lower status or pity the gray-robed old servant for his old age.

Of course, there is another possibility. This child had already seen through the identity of the Qi Refinement Warrior of this old servant wearing shabby and gray clothes!

"This person .. is not easy to deal with."

Luo Tianwu furrowed his brows silently.

The gray-robed old servant hid herself very well. However, he could not deceive the spirit perception that Su Zimo had achieved through his near-death experience.

Without a word, Su Zimo raised his teacup and sipped the tea casually.

Luo Tianwu was silent as well. The tip of his finger tapping on the table was neither light nor hard.

About eight minutes passed …

The stillness of the pin-drop in the room was frightening. Only the sound of fingertips tapping on the table resonates. Smothering atmosphere.

The smile on Luo Tianwu's face had already disappeared.

Under such circumstances, ordinary people would not be able to withstand the pressure. They had long spoken to ease the atmosphere. However, from the very beginning, Su Zimo's expression did not change in the slightest. His gaze was as calm as that of an old monk meditating.

“This child is only 18 years old and she has a calm and mature temperament. It's very difficult to deal with him!"

Luo Tianwu muttered in his heart. He's already feeling a little uneasy.

In fact, this is a psychological pressure tactic. Anyone who could not stand the situation and speak would definitely be behind the feet.

Luo Tianwu originally wanted to conquer Su Zimo in the first instance. However, he did not expect to hit him in the wrong place. He's feeling really upset.

"Didn't Second Young Master Su want to know why I invited you today?" Luo Tianwu asked with a smile.

Su Zimo laid down his teacup casually and glanced at Luo Tianwu. He said calmly, "May I ask the City Lord to give me an explicit reason."

"Two young masters of the Su family were both creamy plants. The patience and perseverance of Young Master Su, and Second Young Master Su hid your light under the bushel." Luo Tianwu praised.

Su Zimo frowned slightly and said, “City Master, you don't need to investigate any further. Please get to the point."

"You are frank! I admire people like Second Young Master Su."

Luo Tianwu smiled faintly. "Your brother failed to kill King Yan. He was seriously injured and was bedridden right now. I know that Second Young Master Su's heart must be filled with anger."

After hearing this, Su Zimo's face changed.

Big brother killed King Yan? He injured?

Su Zimo had not returned for a year. Therefore, he did not know that a severe problem had occurred to the Su family.

Why did the elder brother kill King Yan?

Observing the change in Su Zimo's expression, Luo Tianwu was slightly surprised. He asked, "Don't tell me that Second Young Master Su doesn't know about this?"

"I'm not conscious." Su Zimo shook his head and resisted the urge to rush back to Ping Yang City.

Luo Tianwu felt that he had regained the victory with this. He revealed a slight smile and said, “Actually, I still admire and respect Su Mu, Mr. Wuding, the most. How powerful and prestigious was the black armored cavalry under his wings? Which of the surrounding countries did not know the famous Su Mu? Too bad …"

Su Mu's!

After hearing this name, for some unknown reason, Su Zimo seemed to feel a pain in his heart.

Su Zimo had already sensed that this man named Su Mu was very likely his father!

He only heard Luo Tianwu continue with his words, “16 years ago, we heard that Su Mu had been framed and framed by a criminal. King Yan gave the order to exterminate his entire family. At that moment, I also clenched my fists in sadness and pain. I am saddened by the loss of such an amazing hero! Fortunately, Lord Wuding's bloodline still exists.. Two young masters of the Su family escaped."

After hearing this, Su Zimo already understood in his heart. He had found the answer to many of his doubts.

Without a word, Su Zimo's thin body rose up and headed outside.

"Where did Second Young Master Su go?" Luo Tianwu asked quickly.

Su Zimo's face was serious. He turned around and looked at Luo Tianwu. Red veins were visible in his eyes. That's so scary!

Luo Tianwu was stunned.

The gray-robed old man behind him moved a step back instinctively. He tucked his hand into his chest and searched inside the storage bag.

In fact, Luo Tianwu did not know that Su Zimo did not know the Su family's background. He did not expect that Su Zimo would react so greatly.

Luo Tianwu calmed himself down and took a deep breath. He said in a deep voice, “I know that Second Young Master Su wants revenge. I also want to seek justice for Lord Wuding. Why don't we do this? I have a spy in the city where King Yan lives. I can try my best to help Second Young Master Su approach King Yan. With Young Master Su Second's ability, we will definitely be able to execute King Yan and avenge Lord Wuding if we join forces!"

Su Zimo closed his eyes. After a while, he slowly opened it. The color of blood in his eyes slowly faded and his eyes returned bright and clear.

“This is the Su family's personal grudge. Why should I bother the City Lord?" Su Zimo asked.

Luo Tianwu smiled and said, "Lord Wuding is the person I admire the most in my life …"

"You can only deceive children with such words." Before Luo Tianwu could finish his words, Su Zimo cut him ruthlessly.

Su Zimo's words were considered a form of great contempt for the City Lord.

However, the smile on Luo Tianwu's face did not diminish. He continued to say, “Second Young Master Su was a little angry. I …"

"You're the one who sent Chu Liang to the inn, right?" Su Zimo interrupted Luo Tianwu again and said calmly.

Luo Tianwu withdrew his smile. There was a flash of killing intent in his eyes but it disappeared a moment later. He asked back, "What made Second Young Master Su say that?"

"From the moment I made the first move until I conquered Chu Liang, it only took ten breaths."

Su Zimo pointed at Cao Gang at the side and added, "Councer Cao suddenly ran in. Ha. .. that's a little too fast. It's as if this was prearranged."

"I ... I just happened to pass by ..." Cao Gang explained hurriedly.

Luo Tianwu waved his hand to stop Cao Gang from continuing his words.

It was just a short interaction and Luo Tianwu realized that this kind of little trick could not fool the person in front of him. Forcing an explanation will only make a joke.

Su Zimo sneered and turned around. He halted his steps when he reached the doorway and said calmly, “If City Lord Luo is sincere in helping the Su family, I, Su Zimo, will of course thank you. However, I do not like to be used by others. City Lord Luo .. You better pay attention to your behavior! ”

After finishing his words, Su Zimo left without turning around.

When Su Zimo's figure disappeared from the City Lord's residence, Luo Tianwu's expression turned solemn and sinister. There were already fingerprints on the sandalwood table next to him!

"This green and young lad .. He actually dared to be so arrogant before me!" Luo Tianwu was furious. He gritted his teeth and scolded.

After some time, Luo Tianwu let out a long sigh. He turned around and asked, "Sir, how do you feel about this child?"

At this moment, the gray-robed old servant straightened his back. His eyes are clear and bright. There were no signs of the appearance of the previously old and tired.

When he heard Luo Tianwu's question, he said in a deep voice, “Second Young Master Su is not simple. Although he is not a Qi Refinement Warrior, he can see my identity as a Qi Refinement Warrior with one glance. This kid's hand was certainly stained with a lot of fresh blood. When he was angry earlier, I could feel the fear in my heart. He is a very dangerous man!"

"Oh?"

Luo Tianwu raised his eyebrows slightly. He asked again, "What will happen if you fight him?"

The expression of the gray-robed old servant was proud. He said, “I am a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior. How can humans compete with me ?!"

"Yet …"

After pausing for a moment, the gray-robed old maid changed her stance. "Given this kid's temperament and ability, he has a great chance of success in killing King Yan! Like whether he could escape the capital alive .. Haha …"

The gray-robed old servant smiled but did not say a word.

"I'm not worried if he can escape from the capital where King Yan lives. As long as King Yan dies, the country will become leaderless and there will definitely be chaos. This will be the best time for me to storm the city and declare myself king!" Luo Tianwu smiled. Everything is under his control.
