Warrior's Promise

After thinking of a detailed plan, Su Mo called forth the young servant and ordered him to summon Wu Tian Yu. The best candidate for possession and escape would be Wu Tian Yu. Not only would Su Mo be able to successfully escape, but he would also be able to take his revenge. It would be killing two birds with one stone.

As the Young Priest, his current status was high. Wu Tian Yu would not dare refuse Su Mo’s invitation.

Glancing at the back of the young servant who left, a cold flash passed through Su Mo’s eyes. This servant was probably a spy for the Grand Priest. Su Mo did not wait for long before Wu Tian Yu was brought to his hall by the young servant. Then, Su Mo ordered the young servant to leave them.

“Wu Chen, Young Priest, what have you called me here for?” asked Wu Tian Yu in a deep voice, his face guiltless.

“Wu Tian Yu, I remember you wanted to battle with me before!” Su Mo sat on the main seat and smiled as he answered.

“This… This is a misunderstanding!” Wu Tian Yu wore an awkward expression on his face and shook his head, “Wu Chen, Young Priest, your talents are heaven-defying and you are so powerful, how can I be your opponent!” With that, Wu Tian Yu’s heart hardened, and he knew that Su Mo had called him to create trouble. He humbled himself as much as he could.

“Humph! Misunderstanding… Why didn’t you say it was a misunderstanding before I became the Young Priest?” Su Mo coldly laughed.

Wu Tian Yu’s face fell. He did not imagine that Wu Chen would become the Young Priest and bear this grudge.

“Young Priest Wu Chen, I was disrespectful before. I hope you can forgive me!” Wu Tian Yu pleaded in a low voice.

“You want me to forgive you? That is possible, but you need to give me some compensation!” Su Mo laughed. With that, he immediately began the plan the Flaming Ghost Sage told him. Instantly, with the Ghost Soul of the Flaming Ghost Sage, a strong wave of willpower surged up and changed into a shapeless seal that surrounded the storage ring on Su Mo’s finger.

“What kind of compensation?” Wu Tian Yu asked.

“Your life!” Su Mo’s cold voice rang and he waved his hand. A large wave of Ghost Qi rolled out and instantly filled the room to prevent anyone from spying.

“You…!” Wu Tian Yu’s eyes widened in shock upon seeing this scene. However, before he could react, his body was instantly covered by a wave of light purple coloured haze. Then, Wu Tian Yu froze and was dragged into the dream realm. In the dark room, it was the same scene as it had been before. Wu Tian Yu was tied to a frame and he saw Su Mo standing coldly before him.

“Where is this place? Wu Chen, what do you want?” upon recovering his senses, Wu Tian Yu realized his predicament and began shouting loudly.

“Kill you! Devour! Possess!” Su Mo coldly answered. He was not in a rush, although the Flaming Ghost Sage could only suppress the Grand Priest’s energy in the Young Priest badge for a mere three breaths.

However, the dream realm was just a dream. Even if eight hours had passed in this place, it would be at most a span of one breath in the real world. Furthermore, even if he needed half an hour, he would still be done in an instant.

“You… I only offended you with my words and you actually want to kill me. How ruthless you are!” Wu Tian Yu’s eyes widened with rage, and he shouted angrily as he tried to survey his surroundings. However, he felt sapped of his energy and he could not escape no matter how hard he tried.

“Offend me with your words?” Su Mo laughed out loud and confessed, “Wu Tian Yu, even if I killed you a thousand times, it wouldn’t be enough. Still, I wouldn’t be doing justice to Hong Qing Xuan and the billions of lives in Firmament World if I didn’t kill you. Only by killing you will I be at ease!”

Wu Tian Yu froze upon hearing Su Mo’s words, his face wearing a stunned expression. A few moments later, Wu Tian Yu’s face changed completely, his eyes widened to large spheres and he yelled, “You are Su Mo! You are Su Mo! You actually infiltrated the Sorcerer Tribe!”

“That’s right! I am Su Mo, and I will let you die knowing this!” A cold flash passed through Su Mo’s eyes as he released his Devouring Fighting Soul to devour Wu Tian Yu’s Fighting Soul.

However, with a sudden change of heart, he decided he did not want Wu Tian Yu to die an easy death.

Swoosh!

Su Mo’s hands flashed brilliantly and a long sword that was covered with dense sword radiance appeared. With a single swing, he struck down on Wu Tian Yu’s chest.

“Ah!” Wu Tian Yu emitted a bone chilling shriek as his face contorted in pain.

Pow! Pow! Pow!

Su Mo’s was ruthless in his ways and the long sword in his hands struck uncontrollably down. Wu Tian Yu shrieked endlessly.

“Su Mo, you cannot kill me. If you kill me, you will never be able to find out where your friend is!” Wu Tian Yu’s face showed his fear and he shouted loudly.

“You know where Qing Xuan is?” Su Mo immediately stopped striking, frozen in surprise.

“I know. In the entire tribe, only the Grand Priest and I know!” said Wu Tian Yu weakly. He had already suffered heavy injuries. Of course, his injuries were only in the dream realm. His body remained unharmed in the real world.

“Where is Qing Xuan?” Su Mo anxiously asked.

“Let me go and I will tell you!” Wu Tian Yu responded through his gritted teeth.

Su Mo laughed cold-heartedly. Let him go? Then Su Mo himself would be inviting his own death! With that, he pressed his palm onto Wu Tian Yu’s temple and started searching his soul. Since this was the dream realm, both he and Wu Tian Yu’s existence were based on their willpowers, hence he could search Wu Tian Yu’s soul.

Wu Tian Yu’s mess of memories flooded through Su Mo’s brain like a rushing river. Su Mo did not search through Wu Tian Yu’s entire memories, but only those regarding Hong Qing Xuan. Not long after, Su Mo finally found those precious memories. He learned that Hong Qing Xuan had originally been kept in a special device belonging to Wu Tian Yu.

Wu Tian Yu had told Hong Qing Xuan’s situation to the Grand Priest, but the Grand Priest did not take her away. Instead, Wu Tian Yu had been called forth by the Grand Priest and went to the Clan Prefecture. Once he was there, the Grand Priest ordered him to release Hong Qing Xuan and hand her over to another woman. This woman was roughly 30 years old and wore a palace outfit. She was stunning, but a cold aura surrounded her body.

The Grand Priest handed Qing Xuan over to the woman and she in turn handed an important treasure to the Grand Priest. However, since Wu Tian Yu did not have a high enough status, he wasn’t sure what the treasure was. After that, the woman wiped Hong Qing Xuan’s memories and led her away from the prefecture.

“Sun Tribe!” Su Mo removed his hand from Wu Tian Yu’s temple and mumbled to himself. He recognized from Wu Tian Yu’s memories that the woman was a member of the Sun Tribe. It was clear that Hong Qing Xuan had been taken away by them.

The Sun Tribe was another large and strong tribe in the Infinite Region. It was more than ten times stronger than the Sorcerer Tribe and it was ranked 87th on the Ten Thousand Archean Tribe Board.

“Damn it!” Su Mo clenched his fists tightly as a killing rage surged within him. The Sun Tribe woman had not only taken Qing Xuan, but wiped all her memories as well. This infuriated him.
