NOVEL NEXT Chapter 330 Tiger Lord Hall_2
...
...
Tonight there is wind, the sky is overcast, dim without any starlight.
Inside Baihu City, there is no longer the bustle of the night of the small ceremony; it resembles a resting tiger nestled in the mountains.
Three black figures suddenly arrive at the top of the city wall of Baihu City.
Gazing ahead, the first sight that meets the eye is the Tiger Lord Hall.
The Tiger Lord Hall stands at the very edge of Baihu City, leaning against Hu Jun Mountain, isolated from the surrounding buildings.
There's an elusive sense of being detached from the mundane world.
Apart from that, the most eye-catching is the former Chief Steward Mansion.
That night, Su Mo wreaked havoc in Baihu City, almost flattening the Chief Steward Mansion.
Even after such a long time, it still hadn't been repaired, appearing quite prominent from a high vantage point.
Among them, a black-clothed man gazes at that place, his eyes flickering with unusual emotions.
"...Feeling satisfied with your own masterpiece?"
Another black-clothed person, upon seeing this, speaks softly.
The voice is clear, unmistakably Yang Xiaoyun.
"Cough cough... How could that be?"
Su Mo quickly shook his head: "I just miss that big pillar... swinging it was indeed very exhilarating."
...
Yang Xiaoyun was momentarily speechless.
Remembering the scene of Su Mo swinging the stone pillar, where no one could withstand it.
Compared to something like the Canglong Bahuang Dianyun Spear, or even the Group Battle Skill, it seemed trivial.
Their appearance here was naturally because of the words of the High Priest that night.
Among Da Xuan's top four experts, there was one suspected to be from the Ziyang Sect.
Later, from Jun Luo's words, they learned that Imperial Dao was formed around the four great experts of Da Xuan.
The High Priest also mentioned that their clan had scriptures about this... which Su Mo naturally could not ignore.
Not only that, the day Su Mo and his group passed by Baihu City, the locals coveted the Xinghai Relic Sand Iron.
The General played some poor tricks right in front of him.
Afterward, the High Priest secretly intervened, causing Su Mo to have concerns, thus leaving early to lure out the hidden enemies.
Unexpectedly, the High Priest still harbored ill intentions.
Though he offered the Emperor Heart Technique as an apology, the technique contained hidden schemes.
With all these reasons combined, Su Mo's trip this time was precisely to settle the score with them.
However, for now, Su Mo still planned to first explore their descendants' scriptures.
Hence, during the day, they disguised themselves and after passing through Baihu City, let Zhen Xiaoxiao wait in the inn.
Taking advantage of the night, Su Mo, accompanied by Yang Xiaoyun and Xu Lu, returned to Baihu City.
Considering that tonight, they would initially play the role of thieves.
Bringing Xu Lu along naturally made sense.
After all, in terms of expertise in this area, although Xu Lu wouldn't claim to be unbeatable in Jianghu, he was far superior to Su Mo and others.
Xu Lu, upon hearing that he would have the chance to resume his old profession, was quite excited.
After exchanging a few casual words with Yang Xiaoyun, Su Mo leapt up, employing his Qinggong towards the Tiger Lord Hall.
Xu Lu closely followed behind them.
The three of them, one after another, reached the dark alley opposite the Tiger Lord Hall momentarily.
Tiger Lord Hall is heavily guarded; the distance isolating it from other buildings is precisely for protection.
From a high perspective, if anyone trespasses the Tiger Lord Hall, they can be spotted immediately.
Thus, at this place, the three of them briefly paused, and Xu Lu, as the leader of the thieves, was the first to speak:
"Master, Mistress, the security of the Tiger Lord Hall is even more severe than we imagined.
"The best strategy for now would be to divert their attention.
"After drawing their gaze away, figure out a way to find a gap to break in.
"Or identify the locations of all their people and see if we can enter the hall rapidly using Qinggong without them noticing..."
As he spoke, he casually picked up a stick and started drawing on the ground.
"The Tiger Lord Hall backed by Hu Jun Mountain, no one knows the inside situation.
"As I've passed through Baihu City several times before, I heard from some people that looking directly at the Tiger Lord is a severe crime.
"This also made me quite curious...
"I had planned to sneak in before to see what's so extraordinary about this Tiger Lord?
"But the first time I rashly came here, I was almost discovered by the hidden guards; coupled with the fact that I had urgent matters at the time, I ultimately dared not visit again.
"But that time allowed me to figure out the positions of several guards..."
Along with his words, the overall layout of the Tiger Lord Hall appeared on the ground.
Then he pointed out a few spots on the drawing to mark the locations of the guards.
After marking a few, he shook his head: "I still need to explore more."
Su Mo, hearing all this, couldn't help but nod slightly:
"You lad really deserve to be a thief."
Xu Lu thought for a while, unable to decide how to respond.
Was he supposed to thank Su Mo for the compliment?
Or accept Su Mo's teachings with trepidation?
In his confusion, he saw Su Mo already grabbing his shoulder.
He was stunned for a moment: "Master, I no longer steal... You don't need to punish me for this, right?"
"Your two plans are good, but your Master has a better one."
"Hmm?"
In the moment Xu Lu was puzzled, he felt Su Mo moving swiftly, and in the next moment, he felt as if he became the wind.
His form was led by Su Mo, and in an instant, they were inside the Tiger Lord Hall.
