Warrior's Promise

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

There was a desolate mountain, more than 2,000 miles away from Imperial City.

Sounds of roaring beasts were constantly heard.

A youth in black was sitting cross-legged in a secluded cave. It was Su Mo.

He was treating his injuries.

After taking a few healing elixirs and treating the injuries for a few hours, Su Mo looked better. His injuries were under control.

Su Mo's internal organs were injured and his human body had nearly collapsed. He was badly hurt.

Hong Li was an expert in the True Spirit Realm and his cultivation was higher than Lv 1. A casual stroke from him had nearly cost Su Mo his life.

After a long while, Su Mo opened his eyes and let out a breath.

"I have finally recovered 20-30 percent!"

Su Mo sighed and clasped his fists together.

He had an intense desire for strength.

In such a world, one could easily lose his life if he was not strong enough!

In such a world, one would be at the mercy of others if he was not strong enough!

He had to continue to advance, breakthrough, and reach the top. By doing so, he could then be able to control his own destiny.

After a while, Su Mo stood up and walked out of the cave. After ascertaining the direction, he flew toward Gale Island.

Although this place was far away from Imperial City, someone could catch up with him. It would be better for him to return to Gale Island quickly.

Su Mo knew that he would not be safe, even in Gale Island.

There were challenges he had to face.

His cultivation had reached Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm and he would soon become the Inner Disciple in Gale Island.

It was said that the influence of the Sky Alliance in the inner gate was much stronger than in the outer gate.

...

Halcyon City was a small-medium city in Skymoon Country. It was a flourishing city with about one million people.

After three days' journey, Su Mo had finally reached Halcyon City.

Looking at the words "Halcyon City" on the city gate, Su Mo smiled and stepped into the city.

Halcyon City was Li Feng's hometown. Since Su Mo was here, he would pay him a visit.

Li Feng had been implicated by Su Mo and the Sky Alliance had destroyed his cultivation and limbs. Niu Xiaohu and Zhou Xin had thus sent him back to his hometown.

After the long journey, Su Mo was hungry. He went to an inn and decided to fill up his stomach before visiting Li Feng.

Business in the inn was good and many patrons were drinking and chatting.

Su Mo ordered a few dishes and a pot of wine and started gobbling at an empty seat.

"Have you heard this piece of news? We have another peerless genius in Skymoon Country. His name is Su Mo!"

"Of course I know. This guy has won 151 rounds of combat at Four Seas Arena in Imperial City. He has broken the 200 years of records!"

"So powerful! He has overtaken the Four Talents. I wonder which level Su Mo's Martial Soul is at!"

"…"

Many of them were talking about Su Mo.

Su Mo was surprised that news had spread so quickly within such a short period of time. It had even spread to Halcyon City!

He estimated that within a month, the entire Skymoon Country would hear of it.

Su Mo smiled wryly and continued drinking.

Suddenly, he heard the conversation of a few people and his face was overcast with anger.

"I've heard Li Feng, who used to be a genius, was swept out like rubbish by the Lis!"

"You can't blame the Lis. With his destroyed cultivation and disabled limbs, Li Feng has become useless. The Lis will not support a useless person!"

"That's right! A somebody become a nobody. This is like falling from heaven down to hell. What a pity!"

A few youths were sitting by the window, drinking and chatting.

Bang!

A loud bang burst out in the inn and shocked everyone.

The crowd turned and saw a table being blown into pieces.

A pale-looking youth in black was sitting at the table.

Having heard the conversation of the few youths, Su Mo was fuming with rage and had smashed the table that was before him. Su Mo looked at them with razor-sharp eyes, piercing them with his gaze.

"Where is Li Feng now?" Su Mo asked coldly.

The few youths froze and shivered at his gaze.

Shortly, one of them said in a trembling voice, "I've heard… I've heard he is living in the slum!"

Whoosh!

Su Mo left behind a gold ticket, dashed out and disappeared into thin air.

He was filled with uncontrollable killing intent.

"Li Feng has been thrown out by the Lis?"

"He has lost his cultivation and become crippled. How can he survive without the support of the Lis?"

Su Mo was extremely anxious. He exerted all of his strength and dashed speedily toward the slum.

Su Mo was familiar with the slum. This was a place for the poor.

The slum existed both in the previous life and the present.

In the present life, those who lived in the slum were people who did not have Martial Souls.

Since they did not have Martial Souls, they could not be martial artists. Thus they naturally become poor.

After a while, Su Mo reached the slum which was situated in the north.

The place was excessively packed with stone houses. The stone houses were low and in a jumble.

Su Mo walked in and started searching for Li Feng among the stone houses.

Fortunately, Su Mo's cultivation was high enough for him to sense the things around him within the radius of a few hundred meters.

As long as he could sense Li Feng's breath within the radius, he would be able to find him.

After a quarter of an hour, Su Mo could sense Li Feng's breath.

Su Mo was overjoyed and dashed toward one of the stone houses that was nearby. He quickly came to the front of the stone house.

A middle-aged man in hemp garment was sitting there, smoking his pipe.

The man was about 40 years old and resembled Li Feng. He looked old and had white hair.

A woman about 40 years old was cooking at a stove, made from a pile of stones.

When the two saw Su Mo, they were shocked.

The middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward and sized Su Mo up. He cupped his fists and greeted Su Mo, "My name is Li Jiang. Is there anything I can help?"

The man was respectful toward Su Mo. He dared not offend Su Mo as Su Mo looked charismatic and seemed to be a powerful martial artist.

The woman stood quietly on the spot, looking nervous.
