Warrior's Promise

After Su Mo went back to the guest room, he wanted to meditate to have a deeper understanding of the Devouring Ultimacy.

However, soon after he sat down, Mu Li came knocking on the door.

“Instructor Mu Li, please come in!” Su Mo opened the door and invited her into the room.

“I am not going in!”

Mu Li shook her head and she looked dejected. She then looked at Su Mo and said, “You Tianhan, thanks for your help. Please go back to Shenwu Academy!”

“Why?” Su Mo asked. Although he had posed the question, he already knew what was on her mind.

“I do not want you to be killed because of me!” Mu Li said with a heavy heart.

“Instructor Mu Li, don’t worry! I can protect myself!”

Su Mo smiled and said, “You really don’t have to worry. I will help you settle the matter tomorrow!”

“Do you… really have a way out?” When Mu Li saw Su Mo’s confident look, she was anxious and a little doubtful.

She wondered where You Tianhan had gotten his confidence from!

“I can settle it. Just leave it to me and do not worry about it!” Su Mo nodded and gave her a serious look.

“Alright. I shall see how you are going to resolve this.” Mu Li sighed. She hoped that You Tianhan truly could settle the matter.

She did not know You Tianhan well, but she knew that he was not stupid. Since he was not afraid and was full of confidence, he might truly have a way out.

“No problem!” Su Mo nodded.

Mu Li left and went to a room in the courtyard.

Su Mo then continued to study the Devouring Ultimacy.

The progress in understanding the Ultimacy was slow. It required one to spend a long period of time in understanding it and it could not be done within a short period of time.

Time past in the twinkle of an eye. Early in the morning, Mu Li came outside Su Mo’s room.

“You Tianhan, we are setting off to visit the Qins!”

Mu Li’s sweet voice was heard outside the room. Su Mo ended his cultivation and stood up to open the door.

“Let’s go!” Su Mo nodded.

The two of them did not say a word and they headed toward the Conference Hall.

Mu Hua and Mu Chu were already waiting for them outside the Conference Hall.

“You Tianhan, let me remind you. If you are being killed by the Qins, don’t put the blame on anyone!” Mu Hua reminded Su Mo when he saw him.

“Thank you for your reminder, uncle. Everything will be fine!” Su Mo smiled.

“All right. Let’s go!” Mu Hua shook his head helplessly. Since You Tianhan was tired of living, he would not stop him.

Having said that, he shot up to the sky.

“Let’s go, You Tianhan!” Mu Chu shouted and gave Su Mo a derisive smile. He then shot up to the sky and followed behind Mu Hua.

Su Mo and Mu Li caught up with them.

Although the Qins and the Mus were in Cloud Ridge Star, they were a distance away from each other.

After the four of them flew for one hour, they came to a huge city.

The city was three times bigger than Wood City. Its surrounding wall was towering and it covered a large area, looking majestic.

That city was the Great Qin City, which was where the Qins were staying.

As there was a Martial Sage in the Qins, they were considered the Overlord in a small star like Cloud Ridge Star. The Qins were extremely powerful and they called the shots in Cloud Ridge Star.

Su Mo and the Mus entered the Great Qin City and soon, they came to a majestic looking mansion.

The mansion was a city in the city. The city wall was tall and the gate was wide. Two big words, ‘The Qins’, were written on top of the city gate.

“Mu Hua is here to discuss an important matter with Master Qin!” Mu Hua told the guards at the gate of the mansion.

“Our Master has already informed us. Let me show you to the main hall!”

The guard replied and he turned around to walk into the inner city.

Su Mo and the Mus followed the guard and entered the mansion.

After passing through a long stretch of jaded path, they came into a majestic-looking hall.

There was no one in the hall.

“Please take a seat while I inform our Master!” The guard said and left the hall.

The four of them then sat on the left, according to their seniority.

As Su Mo was an outsider, he took the last seat, which was near to the door.

The structure of this mansion is impressive! Su Mo said within himself. It would be nice if Firmament Palace could look so magnificent.

Tushan Town was several times bigger than before and Firmament Palace was still expanding.

Firmament Palace was too small and packed at that moment, as it had one million disciples in the sect.

However, the Spiritual Qi in Tushan Town was not strong and it was not suitable for long-term development.

Su Mo and Emperor Shi had already had a good discussion about that. Emperor Shi would be sending out some elders to look for suitable places with strong Spiritual Qi to set up their sect.

After that had been done, Firmament Sect would recruit talents from all over the place to be the Outer Palace Disciples. The Green Space would be used as the Inner Palace.

Su Mo and the Mus did not have to wait long. After about 15 minutes, a group of people walked into the hall.

There were five people in the group and the one walking at the front was a middle-aged man. He looked old-fashioned and his eyes were sharp like an eagle’s. He gave one the feeling that he was ruthless.

There was an elder with a head of white hair, and the other was a lady with a green dress. The other two were youths.

One of the youths had a tall and big build. He looked cold and domineering and he was Qin Yun from Triple Deities Sect.

The other youth was shorter and slimmer and he resembled Qin Yun. Su Mo reckoned that he must be Qin Xing.

Qin Xing was at Rank 7 Martial Honored Realm and Su Mo was surprised to see that he was a Sage-to-be. His aura was strong and he was not far from being a Martial Sage.

After the five of them had entered the hall, the middle-aged man at the front went up to the main seat and the other four sat on the right side of the seats.

“Greetings, Master Qin!” Mu Hua and Mu Chu stood up and greeted the middle-aged man respectfully.

Mu Li stood up as well and bowed to Master Qin.

However, Su Mo sat still and showed no intention of getting up.

When the Qins saw it, their face darkened and all of them looked at Su Mo.

After Qin Yun had sized Su Mo up, he furrowed his brows. However, he did not say a word.

As for Qin Xing, he could not be bothered with Su Mo. He simply rested his gaze on Mu Li and kept looking at her.

The more he looked at Mu Li, the more brightly his eyes shone. The Mus’ Fairy Maiden is indeed beautiful!

He had long heard about Mu Li. However, as he had joined Triple Deities Sect at a young age, he was seldom at Cloud Ridge Star and he had never met Mu Li before.
