Warrior's Promise

“The Chaotic Chalcedony?” Wei Tian Supreme Being said, taken aback. He gave Su Mo a once-over before something clicked.

Su Mo’s training was at the Fourth Grade, High Rank. He was just one step away from the Fifth Level. It seemed like he wanted to level up via the Chaotic Chalcedony in order to enter the Thousand Selection Fight.

Slightly groaning, he said, “Su Mo, the Chaotic Chalcedony is too precious! Moreover, there are but a few in my Court!”

The Chaotic Chalcedony was not his decision to make, mainly because the item was of utmost importance to the Chaotic Tribe. There were only a handful of those in the entire Court, and none available at that moment.

“Senior, I have to participate in the Thousand Selection Fight. The Chaotic Chalcedony is my only hope! I’m willing to pay any price!” Su Mo exclaimed.

“Any price?” said Wei Tian Supreme Being, astounded. He had not expected Su Mo to be so persistent, willing to do anything for the Chaotic Chalcedony.

The Wei Tian Supreme Being stayed silent for a while, before saying in a low voice, “Su Mo, I as the Elder can tell, you’re training with the Grand Chaos Five Element Skill. It’s a unique inherited method within the Chaotic Tribe. I don’t know how you got it, but since you have it, it makes you a member of the Chaotic Tribe. But you’re one of Reincarnation. Your identity is very sensitive. Even the Elder such as I cannot decide whether to help you.”

“Then… who can?” Su Mo asked. He understood the other party’s difficult position. After all, he was not a normal warrior. If the Chaotic Holy Court decided to help, it would greatly affect the Divine Realm.

“Tell you what, I’ll take you to Yuan Wang!” After a moment of silence, Wei Tian Supreme Being got up.

“Yuan Wang?” Su Mo said, perplexed. He did not know who that was.

“Indeed. Chaotic Yuan Wang, the ruler of the Chaotic Holy Court,” Wei Tian Supreme Being nodded, “Come with me!”

And so, Wei Tian Supreme Being strode out of the palace.

Su Mo trailed behind him. The ruler of the Chaotic Holy Court? So, all he had to do was convince this person, and he would get the Chaotic Chalcedony.

Wei Tian Supreme Being moved as swiftly as the wind. Quickly, he passed by the ancient mountain as he rushed towards the mountain top.

Su Mo made haste as he followed him with large strides.

The nearer they got to the mountain top, the denser the Chaotic Mist became. Once they had reached there, the dense Mist circled around them. They could easily stretch out one arm and catch a handful.

There was a mansion at the top of the Chaotic Ancient Mountain. To be precise, it was a courtyard.

It was not too large, but it was extremely quaint, with nothing too grand, and occupying no more thana few hundreds of square feet. It was like a manor hidden in the clouds, full of mystery.

“Yuan Wang, I’ve brought Su Mo!” Wei Tian Supreme Being exclaimed respectfully as he arrived at the front gates.

Su Mo’s eyebrows rose slightly when he heard the Supreme Being’s

announcement. It seemed Chaotic Yuan Wang knew of him.

“Come in!” A moment later, a low, masculine, and extremely husky voice rang from beyond the courtyard.

Then, Wei Tian Supreme Being pushed the gates open and led Su Mo into the courtyard.

The insides of the building was much emptier. Several dwarfish spirit trees grew within, while at the centre of the place was a white stone table.

In front of the stone table sat a man in a gray gown, facing the gates sideways. Chaotic Mists still lingered above the courtyard. His face could not be seen clearly.

The man in gray was helping himself to tea at that moment, but he was not drinking spirit tea, or any tea made from divine herbs. It was Chaotic Tea.

The white jade cup in his hands seemed to have mystical powers, sucking in the Chaotic Mists above.

In the blink of an eye, the dense Chaotic Mists became a swirl of grayish-white liquid in the cup, and the man drank it.

“What pure Chaotic Power Energy!” Su Mo said, eyes widening. He could feel that the liquid in the jade cup was pure and highly rich Chaotic Power Energy.

One cup contained the amount of Chaotic Power Energy produced by several millions of Upper Five Element Power Stones.

“Yuan Wang, Su Mo is here!” Wei Tian Supreme Being approached the man in gray and reported respectfully.

“Right. Wei Tian, you may leave!” the man in gray put down the cup and lightly waved a hand.

“Yes!” Wei Tian Supreme Being nodded, glanced at Su Mo, and left.

“I’ve seen you, sire!” Su Mo bowed at him. He was asking for help, so he had to do everything he could.

“Su Mo, how did you come to know me?” Chaotic Yuan Wang spoke as he turned to face him.

“Y-You…!” When Su Mo saw him, he was stunned, his eyes widening.

Very quickly, thoughts spun in his head and instantly locked onto the person’s face deep in his memory.

Five Element Emperor?

Chaotic Yuan Wang’s appearance matched the statue of the Five Element Emperor which he had once seen at the Firmament Palace.

How was this possible?

The ruler of the Chaotic Holy Court, Chaotic Yuan Wang, was the Five Element Emperor all along! Su Mo was completely caught off guard. He would not have dreamed of it.

“It seems like you do know me!” Chaotic Yuan Wang said, smiling very indifferently.

“Y-You’re the Five Element Emperor?” Su Mo asked uncertainly. If he recalled correctly, the Five Element Emperor had been annihilated by the Wu Tribe when they had attacked the Firmament World ages ago.

Could it be that the Five Element Emperor had not been killed, but he had simply left the Firmament World, only to return to the Divine Realm stronger in the end, and become the overlord?

Su Mo had a feeling his brain was failing him. If that were true, then why would the man not wipe out the Wu Tribe after he had gotten stronger? He could have saved the Firmament World!

“You can call me that!” Chaotic Yuan Wang said with a smile.

Su Mo was astonished. This person was indeed the Five Element Emperor.

“Do you have many doubts on your mind?” Chaotic Yuan Wang sighed, having seen through Su Mo.

“Yes, sire. If you haven’t fallen, why didn’t you save the Firmament World?” Su Mo nodded as he asked in confusion.

Since the man could have attained his present achievement, then he must have reached the point of invincibility within the Star Realm during his time in the Lower Plane.

He did not understand why the man had not saved the Firmament World, nor the Firmament Palace, and instead allowed the Firmament World to become the land of trials for the Wu Tribe, and therefore sacrificial lambs for their wanton slaughter.

If he had not shown up, the Firmament World would have remained the same. It would still be the land of trials under the Wu Tribe’s rule.

“No, the Five Element Emperor is dead!” Chaotic Yuan Wang shook his head as he spoke solemnly.

Su Mo had doubts. The man admitted he was the Five Element Emperor, and yet here he was announcing that the Five Element Emperor had died.

He looked at the Chaotic Yuan Emperor doubtfully, waiting for him to clear to clear his confusion. There must be a reason for this.
