Warrior's Promise

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

Su Mo stood for a long time without speaking on the plains, he felt extremely helpless.

This was another instance of helplessness in his life, his destiny and to himself.

​

However, he knew that he still had to walk his way of life and he had to continue breaking through frontiers.

“It is more important for me to raise my cultivation!”

A long while later, Su Mo took in a sigh. He could only do what he wished if he became stronger.

By that point, his cultivation rank had entered the Empty God Realm and he had strength that roughly equaled a Rank 4 Empty God’s.

It could be said that there weren’t many others on God’s Path who could rival him.

If he broke through to the Rank 2 Empty God Realm, he would not have to be afraid of anything anymore.

What of Sky Tyrant Tribe? What of Myriad World Mountain? Nothing could stop him.

As such, he only needed to break through to the Rank 2 Empty God Realm to do everything that he desired.

By then, finding Xi’er would be much easier. With just a single word from him, many people would do his bidding.

With that, Su Mo did not delay further and he headed for the Dragon Tribe on Third Mountain.

…

On Star Guzhou in Infinite Region.

The Star Guzhou then was not like it used to be. Numerous stars circulated around it and it appeared to be like a major sun in the region.

Firmament Palace was bustling and prosperous with over a million disciples. It was much stronger than Firmament World was at its peak.

The sect entrance of Firmament Palace was rebuilt to become a few thousand feet tall gate that was constructed out of pure jade.

It was rumored that the Grand Supreme Elder, Li Feng of Firmament Palace, had moved a few mountains that were full of Spiritual Qi from nearby stars to Star Guzhou, revitalizing the place.

This day, a bright streak of lightning tore through the sky and a downpour of rain suddenly occurred.

However, an invisible array covered Firmament Palace and it remained dry under the umbrella array.

Inside a magnificent palace, over a thousand people had gathered, packed like sardines in a hall.

Su Hong, Emperor Shi, Grandmaster Huo Yuan, Li Feng, Si Kongyan, Jiang Fengran and Qing Ya were among the many gathered at the palace.

Su Hong stood at the front-most spot wearing an anxious look on his face as he paced up and down continuously.

At that point, in front of the eyes of many in the palace, a lady was giving birth to her child.

This lady was Mu Li.

The father of the child Mu Li was having was indisputably Su Mo.

When Mu Li was pregnant, few people knew of it.

That was because Mu Li rarely went out of her living quarters and hardly showed her face. No one knew that she was pregnant with Su Mo’s child.

If not for Grandmaster Huo Yuan, everyone would not have known that Mu Li had been pregnant for three years and only gave birth on this day.

“Why is the child still not out yet?”

Su Hong’s eyebrows creased together as his pumped wildly in anxiousness. He was about to become a grandfather and he was thoroughly excited by it.

“Su Hong, don’t be anxious. With Mu Li’s cultivation rank, bearing a child will not be a problem!” Emperor Shi observed Su Hong’s nervous steps and reassured him.

However, Emperor Shi felt helpless inwardly. Xi’er and Su Mo had been tied together for numerous years but had failed to have a child. However, Mu Li and Su Mo had only had a one night stand and she was pregnant with his child.

“Uncle, Mu Li was pregnant with this child for over three years. The wind and thunder this day is intense and thunder is cracking in the sky. This child must be a godly talent!” Si Kongyan smiled as he said.

By this point, Si Kongyan’s cultivation rank had reached the Rank 1 Empty God Realm.

Not only Si Kongyan, even Jiang Fengran had suddenly broken through to the Empty God Realm.

As for Wenren Tiandu and the others, they were all King Sages who were one tiny step from the Empty God Realm.

Jiang Fengran and Si Kongyan’s sudden break through to the Empty God Realm was understandable. After all, their talent had been raised by a few times thanks to Su Mo.

It had already been over three years since Su Mo headed to God’s Path.

Their speed of cultivation was closely behind Su Mo’s.

Su Mo had taken close to a year to head to God’s Path. Furthermore, his Sacred Elixir had been badly injured before and hence Si Kongyan and the others had caught up to his cultivation rank.

After hearing Si Kongyan’s words, Su Hong laughed lightly, “That is natural. As the grandchild of me, Su Hong, the child’s talents will not be worse than mine even if Mu Li is pregnant for three years!”

“Hehe, uncle. Once this child is born, let me be his teacher. I will make sure to guide him to become a martial artist even stronger than Su Mo!” Si Kongyan chuckled as he nudged Su Hong.

“You?”

Su Hong immediately threw Si Kongyan a side glance and said, “Forget it! You are not up for it!”

“Um…!” Si Kongyan was instantly stunned.

At this point, Su Hong looked at Li Feng beside him and laughed, “Li Feng, you are about to head to God’s Path a few days later. That is great, please pass the good news to Su Mo!”

“Of course. However, I am afraid that Su Mo would be too anxious to return!” A slight hint of a smile stretched across Li Feng’s typical stone-cold face.

Boom boom boom!

Right as the group was talking, stunning thunder cackled through the sky, sending chills down one’s spine.

Suddenly, the cry of a baby reverberated through the hall loud and clear.

“It’s a boy! A boy!”

A second later, the elated exclamation of the midwife rang through the hall and instantly, pure happiness wiped through the palace.

…

Right in the midst of the joy of the Firmament Palace, in another region, God Region.

A massive colorful flagpole waved through the wind.

Two figures stood about a hundred meters below the nine-colored flagpole.

It was a man and a lady. The man was an elder who had white hair and eyebrows. He wore a long white robe and his age was evident through the wrinkles on his face.

The lady wore a light green skirt. She appeared to be about twenty years old and she had the beauty of an innocent girl.

“Teacher, are you really not going to let me return once?” The lady frowned as she looked at the elder, her voice full of pleas.

“Xi’er, there is no more time left. You have to follow me to God’s Path!” A deep look crossed the elder’s eyes as he shook his head towards the lady.

“However…. I have my family and lover at Infinite Region!” The green-skirted lady hesitated.

“Your lover long ago headed to God’s Path.” The white haired elder informed Xi’er.

“What? Teacher, are you saying that Brother Su Mo is already at God’s Path?” Instantly, a smile crossed the lady’s face.

This green skirt lady was the woman that Su Mo was trying so hard to find, Di Lanxi.

On the other hand, the white haired elder was Elder Tiaji.

Elder Tianji had not told Su Mo the truth previously as he had only wanted Su Mo to head towards God’s Path as fast as possible.

He had already calculated Xi’er’s location and found her a long time ago.

“That’s right, Su Mo has already headed to God’s Path!” Elder Tianji smiled and nodded his head. However, he felt helpless inwardly.

His disciple did not have much talent and he had used a lot of methods and ways, to the extent of sacrificing his own cultivation, to raise the lady’s cultivation rank to the King Sage Realm.

It was only after he passed down his ancient secret technique to her at the King Sage Realm that she had barely managed to become a Rank 1 Empty God who could head to God’s Path.

This lady would be a hidden card to use against Su Mo in the future.

If the plan went smoothly, the lady would be useless, but if something bad happened, the lady would be hugely useful.

“That is great. Teacher, let’s head to God’s Path now!” Xi’er held Elder Tianji for his words and a determined look crossed her face

Since Brother Su Mo was at God’s Path, she would head there.

It had been a few dozen years and her cultivation rank had improved greatly at the same time that she had matured.

Back then, an expert had taken her away from Infinite Region and she had not expected that she wouldn’t return for so long.

“Mm, let’s go!”

Elder Tianji nodded. With that, he led Xi’er and walked towards the nine-colored flagpole.
