Warrior's Promise

Leng Xie’s face turned as dark as coal upon hearing Su Mo’s words. A murderous glare passed through his eyes and he felt as though his pride was stabbed and his authority was challenged.

“Su Mo, if you have the guts, take another one of my attacks!” Leng Xie dared Su Mo. His previous attack was too weak. He had underestimated Su Mo and hence he did not even use half of his maximum power.

Therefore, he wanted to attack Su Mo again. His next attack would definitely be his ultimate attack and it would kill Su Mo indefinitely.

“Tch. were all your words nonsense?” Su Mo sneered, he would not be fooled by Leng Xie.

Shoosh!

Right at that moment, a shadow flashed past. Yun Youyou flew forward and stood in between Su Mo and Leng Xie.

“Leng Xie, with your status, I don’t think you will go back on your words, right? This matter will be settled here!” Yun Youyou subtly warned.

“I…!” Leng Xie was at a loss for words. His face turned shell shocked as he knew he had to stick by his words. Since Su Mo had survived the first strike, Leng Xie would have to let him go.

However, he had thought that he could kill Su Mo with that one strike.

Now that his one strike was unsuccessful, he was not content with letting Su Mo go so easily.

Leng Xie threw a glance at Su Mo before turning to look at his surroundings. Upon seeing Li Hentian, Tian Lang and the other onlookers around him, Leng Xie’s face darkened considerably.

He had to stick by his words. If he went back on them in front of so many people, it would be of great harm to his reputation and status.

Furthermore, Yun Youyou would also look down upon him if he went back on his words in front of her.

Sucking in a deep breath, Leng Xie calmed himself down and said, “Su Mo, consider me merciful today as I will let you go!”

With that, Leng Xie turned around and flew off in the distance like a bolt of lightning.

Yun Youyou heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that. She had been worried that Leng Xie would not let Su Mo go.

Su Mo also silently breathed out. Leng Xie was strong and Su Mo was not a match for him. He was lucky to achieve such an outcome from the situation.

Many of the onlookers also sighed as they had not imagined the situation would be resolved in such a manner. However, they also knew that a large part of it was due to Yun Youyou. If it wasn’t for her, Su Mo would be in deep trouble.

Li Hentian’s face darkened. Leng Xie’s strike did not do much harm to Su Mo at all!

It seems that he had to personally take things in his hands and deal with Su Mo.

“Li Hentian, are you not going to leave yet?”

At that moment, Yun Youyou glared at Li Hentian and barked coldly.

“Holy Lady, I will take my leave now!” Li Hentian did not hesitate for long. Cupping his fists to Yun Youyou, he commanded the group of Empty Sky Sect disciples and left.

He knew that he could not kill Su Mo with Yun Youyou around unless he wasn’t afraid of getting into her bad books.

Therefore, Li Hentian could only leave for now. He wasn’t leaving completely as he still had to kill Su Mo.

With that, the rest of the spectators also left.

A few moments later, the crowd had left and only Su Mo and Yun Youyou were left at the mountain.

Cough!

Right at that moment, Su Mo’s body quivered and a mouthful of blood escaped his mouth as he fell uncontrollably from the air.

“Are you alright?” Yun Youyou asked in a serious manner as she immediately flew beside him.

“Yes, it is only a minor injury.” Su Mo stabilized himself and shook his head, dismissing her concerns.

In all honesty, his injury was not minor and Su Mo was just controlling it.

Although he had exerted his full power to block Leng Xie’s attack, the Haze Ball was incredibly powerful and it had completely crushed him.

While Su Mo was able to break it apart in a single strike, the forces on the Haze Ball was earth-shattering and it almost caused him to suffer a heavy internal injury.

Luckily for Su Mo, his special body constitution was strong and the multiple body physique along with the variety of defensive Blood Forces had allowed him to block the attack.

Otherwise, even if he had been able to break the Haze Ball, his physical body would have been crushed apart.

Su Mo hands had almost been destroyed by the Haze Ball.

He was surprised by Leng Xie’s strength, Leng Xie’s power really was strong.

Leng Xie was a few times stronger than Yang Tianwei from the Empty Sky Sect. Despite being in the same cultivation realm, Leng Xie’s power was on a whole different level from Yang Tianwei.

“Then, I will leave you to heal yourself. We will talk again when you are recovered!” Yun Youyou nodded her head slightly.

“It is alright. This small injury can heal by itself!” Su Mo shook his head as he retrieved an elixir and swallowed it.

Although his injuries were not light, it was much better compared to what he had sustained when he had fought the yellow-robed elder of the Empty Sky Sect previously.

“Mm! Then let’s talk down there!” Yun Youyou said. Then, she flew downwards and landed on the peak of the mountain.

The ground below had already been crushed by a thousand feet. And the mountain peak was also a thousand feet lower than it originally as.

However, the mountain peak was still spotless. Despite the strong forces from the attack, it was still unharmed.

Su Mo and Yun Youyuo stood side by side on the mountain peak. A light breeze caressed the both of their hairs.

“Su Mo, I would like to go over to the Firmament World!” Yun Youyou exclaimed in a light voice. Since she was supposedly from the Firmament World, she wanted to revisit her hometown. Perhaps, she might regain her memories from seeing some familiar sights.

“Firmament World has already been destroyed!’ Su Mo shook his head dejectedly. He did not tell Yun Youyou this previously.

“Destroyed?”

Yun Youyou fell into a deep silence before she asked again, “Then where are my parents?”

“Your parents are in the Firmament Palace in Star Guzhou of Ancientspirit Galaxy!” Su Mo informed Yun Youyou. Su Mo had brought the men of Great Hong Empire to the Firmament Palace.

“Once the Ancient Demons Cemetery is over, bring me to Star Guzhou!” A resolute expression was worn in Yun Youyou’s eyes as she said this.

Although she did not regain her memories and had no feelings for her supposed parents, she decided that she ought to pay them a visit.

“Alright, I will bring you over in the future!” Su Mo nodded his head. He naturally would not reject Yun Youyou. If she met her parents, she might be able to remember some of her past.

Yun Youyou flipped over her palm and a messaging charm appeared in her hands. Then she said, “Let me give this to you before I leave!”

Yun Youyou handed the messaging charm over to Su Mo.

“I will wait for you!” Su Mo kept the messaging charm.

Right at that moment, Yun Youyou’s face suddenly turned cold as she glared at Su Mo and warned, “If I find out that you are lying to me, you will end up in a pitiful state!”

Yun Youyou did not trust Su Mo completely. Although she believed his words, she had to prepare for anything.

She could not expel the possibility that Su Mo was lying to her.

“Mm!” Hearing her icy cold words and looking into her dark eyes, Su Mo was at a loss for words. He had no reason to lie to Yun Youyou!

“Everything I said is the truth!” Su Mo smiled.

“I hope that is true!” Yun Youyou acknowledged Su Mo. Without any further words, she turned and flew off into the sky.

“She really has grown up!” Looking at Yun Youyou’s back, Su Mo muttered to himself.

Qingxuan was no longer the happy-go-lucky girl from 10 years ago. She had matured.
