Chapter 30: Set You Up (Refined)

  At this moment, Su Mo had slowly walked into the middle of the street.

  But saw the exquisite jade-like face in the dimly lit lanterns, half bright and half dark, a pair of eyes deep and beautiful, jet-black hair scattered over her slender figure, shining with a captivating luster like black jade. She looked at the crowd around her, gradually revealing a playful smile.

  She circulated her inner power and said clearly: "The shop owners of the Business Alliance, I discussed with you just now that those goods only need to be sold at a high price, and give me a 10% discount, I wonder how much it will come down to?"

  Everyone took out their abacus and started calculating with a "click-click" sound. Someone immediately stuck his head out and shouted: "Young master, the goods in our store that were sold because of you have made a pure profit of 5,000 taels, and you've earned 500 taels."

  "I am 1,000 taels." "I am 800 taels." "I am 500 taels."

  "Little master, today you have obtained a total of 50,000 taels of silver as your allowance."

  "Great, this silver is enough for me to buy the rest of those goods, right?" Su Mo's lips curled up with a charming smile.

  "Not bad, we're even now, and young master has also obtained our business alliance token, so he can come find us to discuss business at any time."

  Seeing this, everyone stared at Su Mo in shock, speechless, and the surroundings were silent.

  They thought this young man was oppressed by a powerful force, but unexpectedly he made a big profit.

  From head to toe, it turns out that some people have become a joke themselves when watching jokes.

  Up until now, after understanding what had happened, Xiaojie fainted.

  At this moment, the rain is gradually stopping, and the surrounding air seems to be slowly condensing.

  Miss Xia smiled slightly in the direction of Su Mo, her smile a bit provocative and cold. In her past life, the Xia family had also caused the Su family to lose one million taels of silver. Now she was just returning the favor, tit for tat. Seeing her lips curve into an elegant smile, she said slowly: "I've already taken what I need, not a single thing is missing. As for the goods that aren't needed, they've all been taken away by the Xia family. This time, the Xia family has indeed made great sacrifices for the sake of the business alliance. Thank you to the Xia family for their generosity. I think the business alliance will surely present a brocade banner to the Xia family."

  "You..." The young nobles looked at each other in dismay.

  "Shameless! You shameless little brat!" Miss Xia covered her ears and shrieked.

  "Wait, what's going on?" At this moment, a man in black was walking towards him with a swagger.

  Everyone immediately looked at this man and was immediately convinced by the masculinity of the man in front of him. He had to admit that the man in front of him was very handsome, with a unique wild aura under his black shirt, and his eyes were sharp and fierce. This man was Xia Zhe, the eldest son of the famous Xia family.

  At this moment, Miss Xia covered her face and showed a weak appearance, sobbing and saying, "Brother, you have to make decisions for me."

  But all he saw was Xia Ze's gloomy gaze, his eyebrows cold and condensed, with a fierce killing intent, the lives of others were as insignificant as straw in his eyes.

  His voice was cold and detached at this moment, and in the dark night, it carried a chilling tone. "You little one, all your actions are under my eyes, really despicable and shameless. I give you a choice, immediately kneel down and apologize to my sister, then spit out everything you swallowed, and I will consider letting you die not too ugly."

  Listening to his words, people secretly said: What a good way to call a deer a horse and say white is black.

  Su Mo's smile still had a hint of coldness, "Young Master is certain he wants to make a move in the market? This doesn't follow the rules!"

  "I am the eldest son of the Xia family, my words are the rules." With a cold wind blowing, Xia Ze took out a token, with an air of a high and mighty crown prince.

  As soon as the words fell, the noble young men around him immediately jumped out to act as thugs. Su Mo smiled without diminishing, his eyes shining brightly, and he walked forward with a gentle and elegant demeanor, walking freely among more than a dozen noble men. His movements were extremely fast and accurate, two thin butterfly short knives flew out of his sleeves, the fingers holding the knife were snow-white and translucent, beautiful to the extreme. The angle of attack was extremely strange and cunning, making people unable to defend against it, sending chills down their spines.

  Her ten fingers flew swiftly, each time she made a move, it was always aimed at the most vulnerable spot.

  In the flash of swords and shadows, everyone's weapons clanged to the ground, and immediately a large area was knocked to the ground!

  As long as she flashes her knife, others can feel the chill in it.

  Everyone's face turned as white as snow and fell to the ground, unable to get up. All the young men were screaming in agony.

  Su Mo's sleeves were rolled up, and a confident smile rose from the corner of his lips.

  Xia Ze pointed at Su Mo again, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes. "No one is allowed to hurt others in the market. You little scoundrel must be put to death! Guards, come!"

  The thief shouts to catch the thief, and the Xia family is indeed very shameless at heart. Su Mo slowly hooked his lips and looked at Xia Ze's gaze with a hint of coldness.

  Suddenly a white light flashed quickly, bringing with it a chill in the air. The black-clad man's face flickered with a hint of surprise, and his eyes flashed with a deep meaning.

  All of a sudden, a white figure flashed forward like lightning, without any warning, and bit down hard on Xiaojie's proud full chest. Moreover, not every woman wears a protective mirror.

  This happened so suddenly, too suddenly, even Su Mo was momentarily stunned.

  Miss Xia let out a shrill cry, as if a cold current had quickly pierced her heart, and a chill ran through her, causing her to convulse for a moment, frozen like ice.

  Xia Ze's face changed, and he drew his sword to stab Bing Hu, but Bing Hu sneered at him, made a swift move, and vanished into thin air.

  When it reappeared, it was already a zhang away, its body ghostly and swift to the point of being unimaginable.

  "Hurry up and catch that damned white-haired beast!" Xia Ze coldly waved his sleeve, gritting his teeth fiercely.

  "Stand still, don't run!" The congenital guardians of the Xia family immediately gave chase, but they were rushing towards the fox instead.

  In the chaos, Su Mo smiled, her deep and mysterious eyes flashing with uncertainty. Suddenly, she felt a man's hand grasp hers, pulling her into the crowd. She followed his footsteps immediately, their fingers intertwining tightly. In that instant, Su Mo felt the man's slender fingers, cool and smooth like jade, extremely comfortable to hold.

  The next moment, she raised her eyes and saw a cold and handsome profile, Wen Renyi.

  ……

  The dusk is approaching, and the cold wind is blowing in our faces.

  In the dense and gloomy forest, trees cast their shadows everywhere.

  Xia Ze held the sword in his hand, gazing at the hidden pursuer in the corner of the rain, with a cold expression.

  "It's all over, young master. The warriors our Xia family sent have been completely defeated." Everyone knelt down on the ground, their faces filled with terror.

  Now those pursuers of Xia's family are lying on the ground, and not a single one is alive. Some were poisoned, some were stabbed to death.

  "What? How is this possible?" Xia Ze's eyes narrowed, his face shocked. "Where is that child?"

  The little boy entered the misty forest not far from here.

  "That forest is normally off-limits to everyone, let alone at night. It's said to have poisonous substances inside and there are also a group of assassins tracking them down. Once our people go in, they can't come out again. We're really powerless."

  "No, Brother Ah, we must catch that little brat, no matter what the cost. I want to kill him, I want to kill him." Miss Xia's face was terrifying, her voice shrill and menacing.

  "That's enough! The Xia family knows to plan before acting, but you didn't even investigate the young man's background, all you know is that he wants revenge, which is why you failed. Are you trying to destroy the foundation of the Xia family with your own hands?" Xia Ze's eyes were cold and harsh as he glared at his sister.

  Miss Xia was scolded by her brother for the first time, feeling wronged in her heart, biting her lip and covering her face, she burst into loud sobs.

  Now she not only lost her dowry, but also owed a lot of debts, and had a clear bite mark on her chest. Which man would marry her in the future?

  ……

  At this moment, Su Mo had been led by Wen Renyi into the outer periphery of the Misty Forest.

  She turned her eyes sideways, slanting a glance at his face, her gaze calm, sharp and clear.

  A man in white clothes with black hair, his straight nose and deep, cold eyes, and his thin lips, were revealed as the night wind blew. His long white robe fluttered in the wind like clouds and mist, and his sleeves floated as if he were a celestial being, making him even more pleasing to the eye. Moreover, a faint scent of masculinity emanated from his body, light and almost imperceptible, yet extremely pleasant.

  Su Mo's gaze fell on his tightly clasped hand once again, a faint smile brushing against the corner of his lips: "Hear People Young Master, do you still want to hold my hand?"

  "This place is dangerous." He said without turning his head back.

  Su Mo let out a soft sigh, under the vast moonlight, the moonbeams filtering through the mottled tree shadows, creating an inexplicable ambiguity between the two.

  Of course, Su Mo didn't think that Wen Renyi was saving a beauty in distress. She guessed that it must be because the Heavenly Book was placed on her own body.

  However, in Su Mo's heart, he thought that the men of the Xia family were indeed formidable, but compared to this "Killing God" in front of him, they were not worth mentioning. If he fell into the hands of the Xia family members, Wen Renyi would certainly not get any benefit, after all, he had always been eyeing the Xuanji Heavenly Book, so he took action.

  She knew that this man's mind was extremely sharp and meticulous in doing things, so when he brought her to this place, she didn't even ask a single question.

  The man seemed very pleased with her silence, and the two walked hand in hand, a few feet apart, strolling leisurely.

  Su Mo glanced at him obliquely, but seemed to hear his light breathing and her slightly rapid heartbeat.

  This feeling, this scene, made her think of the hand in hand and growing old together, that kind of enchanting feeling, only unfortunately the man in front of her was not her beloved, but another man.

  Su Mo shook her head vigorously, stopping the swirling thoughts that had been flying around. Normally, she was not one to indulge in such flights of fancy.

  Especially with people chasing after them coming one after another around their eyes, judging from the footsteps, it seems that there are not only Xia's family but also some other assassins.

  She narrowed her eyes and remained silent, having already guessed that these people were the same group of assassins who had dealt with Yu Ran.

  Su Mo thought seriously, whether it was Yu Ran or Wen Ren Yi, it seemed that some people wanted to take the lives of both of them.

  In short, Wen Renyi discovered that she was being stalked by a group of assassins and left the town with her. Now they are facing pursuit from two groups of people.

  Su Mo was usually calm when faced with things, but at this moment he had a slight headache.

  Don't these men know they should clean up the assassin first before coming after her?
