Warrior's Promise

Xu Yun Hall was different from the stone halls that the soldiers of Red Dragon Camp lived in.

It was also a stone hall but it was bigger and located at the extreme end of Red Dragon Camp.

When the gate of the hall opened up, there was an illusory water curtain in it. When Su Mo saw it, he suddenly realized that an array was set up in Xu Yun Hall.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Zhu Ying, Lai Yu, and Su Mo passed through the water curtain and went into Xu Yun Hall.

The scene before them kept changing and when Su Mo looked at it, he felt as though he was faced with a void.

Other than the soldiers of Red Dragon Camp, there was nothing in the void.

Everyone looked at Su Mo, Lai Yu, and Zhu Ying when they went in. These soldiers had heard that Su Mo had challenged Lai Yu and they were here to watch the fight.

“Greetings, Squadron Leader!” The soldiers saluted Zhu Ying.

“You can dispense with the formalities!” Zhu Ying waved his hand and looked at Su Mo and Lai Yu.

“Shangguan Hao, come on!” Lai Yu shouted. In a flash as quick as red lightning, he flew a far distance away.

Su Mo stepped out into the air and followed him, then stood some distance away from him.

All the soldiers looked intensively at the two of them. Shangguan Hao was only at Rank 8 Martial Emperor Realm but he had challenged Lai Yu. He must have possessed great strength. This fight would be interesting.

I will soon find out if he is Su Mo! Heng Fei thought to himself as he squinted his tiny eyes.

“Shangguan Hao, I have been the leader of squad 29 for more than a year. During this period, three people have challenged me. All of them have a higher cultivation level than you but they have failed to defeat me. Do you think you can defeat me?” Lai Yu asked and smiled coldly.

“I have no time for your nonsense!” Su Mo said and he looked indifferent. He triggered his thoughts and activated the Dream Realm Fighting Soul. Thin purple fog then rose up and engulfed Lai Yu.

In the next instant, Lai Yu’s face stiffened as though it had been solidified.

“What is happening?”

“What is this?”

“Is this a Fighting Soul or an illusion?”

When the soldiers saw what had taken place, they were shocked. Su Mo had taken them by surprise in split seconds.

Lai Yu’s body was like a corpse and it fell from the sky.

What has happened?

Is that all?

Has Lai Yu been defeated?

All of them were stunned and they widened their eyes. They had not expected such a thing to happen.

As a squad leader, Lai Yu possessed great strength. At least among his peers, he was invincible.

However, he did not even have a chance to strike before he was being defeated by Shangguan Hao. Moreover, the defeat came too quickly!

Heng Fei’s face twitched. He had wanted to find out if Shangguan Hao was Su Mo but before the two of them could fight, the fight had ended!

“Squadron Leader, I have won!” Su Mo said as he looked at Zhu Ying. He was not surprised that he had defeated Lai Yu in split seconds.

After his cultivation level had been enhanced, the rest of his abilities had enhanced as well. His Dream Realm Fighting Soul had no problem dealing with a Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm martial artist.

This applied only to the ordinary Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm martial artists, not to Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm martial artists like Jiang Shenye.

“This…!”

Zhu Ying came back to himself and he was lost for words. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, “Shangguan Hao, you have defeated Lai Yu. From today onward, you will be the leader of squad 29.”

“Thank you, Squadron Leader!”

Su Mo cupped his fist at Zhu Ying. After he had assumed the position of squad leader, he could leave the campsite. He then said, “Squadron Leader, if that is all, I will make a move first.”

“All right!” Zhu Ying said and waved his hand.

Su Mo then walked through the exit and left Xu Yun Hall.

After Su Mo had left, Zhu Ying’s face turned ghastly pale. He looked at the soldiers who were still in a daze and shouted, “Why are you still standing there!? Bring Lai Yu here!”

When the soldiers heard what Zhu Ying had said, they shivered out of fright. They then flew down and lifted Lai Yu, who was badly injured.

After Zhu Ying had checked on Lai Yu, his face turned pale. Although Lai Yu had no external injury, his eyes were rolled back as though he had suffered from a serious mental injury.

It would take a long time to recover from such injuries and Lai Yu would need to take a few months to do so.

…

After Su Mo left Xu Yun Hall, he went out of Red Dragon Camp immediately.

What was so great about the position of a squad leader?

He was not interested in it. He only wanted to refine his avatar and leave the Ancientspirit Galaxy.

After Su Mo got out of Red Dragon Camp, he removed the red armor that was on his body. It would attract a lot of attention if he were to put it on.

Where can I find a body? As Su Mo was walking on the street, he was troubled. He could not simply kill anyone.

This would be against his principle. Moreover, he was not interested in the people with a low cultivation level.

Su Mo ran through the list of his enemies in his mind to find a suitable body for his avatar. However, other than the Sorcerer Tribe, he did not seem to have any other enemies.

You Tianhan is a suitable candidate! Su Mo said within himself. In terms of cultivation level and talent, You Tianhan would make a good candidate for his avatar. Most importantly, he was Su Mo’s enemy.

However, You Tianhan was at Shenwu Academy in Star Guzhou.

I shall go to Star Guzhou! After a while, Su Mo had made up his mind to return to Star Guzhou.

Even if Su Mo had not chosen You Tianhan to be his avatar, he would still go to Star Guzhou.

Before he departed from the Ancientspirit Galaxy, he had to make a trip back to Firmament Palace. After all, he did not know when he would be back again as he would be moving on to another galaxy soon and would not be bringing his men from Firmament Palace with him.

He had to pass on some instructions and leave an avatar in Firmament Palace to protect it, as well as to gather resources for Firmament Palace.

Moreover, Su Mo knew that Gu Tianyi would not release Nie Qian and Han Ying after he had saved them from the Torture Room. He would definitely bring the two of them to the Imperial Ancestor Court.

Gu Tianyi knew that he could use these two people to tie Su Mo down.

If he did not do so, Su Mo would leave the Imperial Ancestor Court any time.

Apparently, Gu Tianyi valued Su Mo’s talent and would not allow Su Mo to leave the Imperial Ancestor Court. He would make him stay in the Imperial Ancestor Court and serve him.

Thus, Su Mo intended to refine another avatar and let him stay in the Imperial Ancestor Court to appease Gu Tianyi. He would then be free to head for the Ming Xu Galaxy to look for Qingxuan.

Su Mo had it all planned out and he immediately headed for the Teleportation location in order to get to Star Guzhou.
