Warrior's Promise

All those who saw the scene were both shocked and confused.

Where were they?

Had they all died?

The nine Martial Honoured Realm warriors had actually died so easily without the surge of a wave.

In the courtyard, Su Mo looked indifferent. The shadow of the Devouring Fighting Soul slowly turned behind his back.

After a while, pieces of items started to fly out of the Devouring Void and landed in front of him.

These items included long spears and sharp swords, armours and Storage Rings. They all belonged to the Taishi Family.

With a wave of his arms, Su Mo kept all these war spoils and immediately stowed his Devouring Fighting Soul.

His eyes closed slowly as the aura of his body surged. He was about to reach Level 3 Martial Honoured Realm.

Initially, he had wanted to accrete for a while and wait until the True Sage Stele was in the Star before using the vital essence of the Ancient Demon Heart to breakthrough to Level 3 Martial Honoured Realm.

Now, however, the few people of the Taishi Family had been devoured and he immediately began to hit the bottleneck of the realm.

These nine people were all of Martial Honoured Realm Cultivation. The lowest was of Level 2 Martial Honoured Realm Cultivation. He did not want to waste such rich Dark Force and vital essence.

Ji Feng’s broken body was also unable to escape the wrath of being devoured. The vital essence and Dark Force of the nine people entered Su Mo’s body and surged like a raging sea. It was beyond majestic.

Rumble!

A silent sound came from Su Mo’s body. Together with his refining, the five Divine Pills vibrated constantly.

His cultivation had already reached the Peak of Level 2 Martial Honoured Realm. Now, with a such rich vital essence entering his body, he immediately began to strike the bottleneck of the realm.

Although Su Mo had been accreting for quite some time, the foundation of his cultivation was quite stable, However, with such a Cultivation level, it was difficult to break through.

The Dark Force in his body was fast and roared. Su Mo closed his eyes and continuously refined, consistently breaking through.

Just as Su Mo was breaking through the bottleneck of the realm, the entire Tushan Town seethed with excitement.

In the small Tushan Town, Martial Honoured Realm warriors were rarely seen. However, nine of them were present today.

What was even more frightening was that the nine powerful Elites of Martial Honoured Realm were like innocent, helpless lambs that did not have any kind of resistance and were actually killed.

Everyone in Tushan Town was filled with horror. There was actually such a terrifying elite in Firmament Palace?

Su Mo? You Tianhan?

Fear gripped their hearts as many thought about what Ji Feng had said previously. Su Mo’s name could be said to be well-known in Star GuZhou.

This was because Shenwu Academy previously had a demonic genius named Su Mo who shone with extraordinary talent in True Sage Territory. However, he died long ago!

Was this the Su Mo?

Many of them were astounded. This was very likely, as You Tianhan seemed to be a disciple of the Shenwu Academy.

At that moment, the outside of the courtyard was densely packed with people.

Emperor Shi, Hai Mingjiang, Qing Mingzi and the other high ranks of the Firmament Palace were all present. There was also a large group of Firmament Palace Disciples.

Everyone had rushed to where Su Mo resided as such a huge incident happened.

However, a vast oppression came from the courtyard and the aura of a strong Honoured warrior filled the atmosphere, causing fear to grip everyone’s hearts.

They were waiting as Su Mo seemed to be Cultivating. They did not dare to disturb him.

Yun You You had also come. She wanted to understand what exactly was going on. She was very concerned about the safety of the Firmament Palce.

Time passed by, hour after hour.

The sun rose and set. Soon, a day and night had passed by.

Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, an even more vast surge of aura suddenly spread from the courtyard and swept in all directions.

This aura was so vast that it immediately shocked everyone.

However, this aura only lasted for a short while. It retreated like a tide and disappeared without a trace.

“Broken through?”

All the people in the Firmament Palace were surprised. This aura was obvious proof that Su Mo had broken through his Cultivation.

This was a joyous occasion for everyone. Su Mo’s breakthrough in cultivation and increase in power was great fortune for the entire Firmament Palace.

“Come in!”

Su Mo’s voice resounded in the courtyard after a while.

When the crowd heard this, they pushed the gate of the courtyard open and rushed in.

In the courtyard, Su Mo had already gotten up and was sitting at the front of the stone table. He had already known that everyone had come.

After a day and night of hard work, his cultivation had finally broken through to Level 3 Martial Honoured Realm.

However, the Dark Force and vital essence of the nine disciples of the Taishi Family was insufficient. Su Mo had used up quite a hefty sum of Spiritual Crystals.

“Su Mo, what was that just now?” Emperor Shi was the first to speak as he asked with a solemn look. This was no trivial matter. There was definitely a strong hatred behind the attack of so many Martial Honoured Realm Elites.

The crowd stared fixedly at Su Mo, waiting for him to explain.

“They are from the Shenwu Academy!” Su Mo sighed and said in a deep voice. He was very dignified at the moment.

He had just returned, how could the Taishi Family be monitoring him? Or was it that he was too careless!

This time, he reckoned that it would spell trouble once again.

The Taishi Family and he had a deep hatred. Although they had temporarily reconciled when they were at the Shenwu Academy, this tension was only temporarily suppressed.

Now that the Taishi Family Faction knew that Su Mo was not dead, they would definitely seek revenge against him.

Su Mo was fearless. However, he had to spare a thought about the Firmament Palace

“People of Shenwu Academy?” The crowd was puzzled upon hearing this. They all knew that Su Mo was a disciple of the Shenwu Academy. Why would the disciples of the Shenwu Academy come to kill him?”

“The factions in the Shenwu Academy are complicated. I formed an enmity with them at the beginning!” Su Mo explained when he saw the confused faces.

So that was the case. The crowd instantly had a moment of realisation.

“Mo’er, now that these people have died, will there be any trouble?” Su Hong asked anxiously. There was definitely bound to be trouble after killing so many Shenwu Academy Disciples.

“There will be some trouble!” Su Mo sighed. However, he was not too worried as he had made a breakthrough in cultivation and his strength had greatly increased.

After all, he had only killed the Taishi Family Disciples of the Shenwu Academy, not the true people of the Taishi Family.

The disciples of the Taishi Family Faction of the Shenwu Academy were not of high Cultivation. There shouldn’t be anyone who was his match.

Even Holy Son Lord Taishi was an unlikely opponent, though he seemed to be only of Level 4 Martial Honoured Realm Cultivation.

Of course, there would be no problem in a short period of time if he were guarding the Firmament Palace. However, if this went on for a longer period of time, there was bound to be trouble. After all, his identity had been exposed.

Also, he was going to Myriad World Mountain so he could not possibly keep staying in Firmament Place.

“Su Mo, what should we do?” Hai Mingjiang asked. Everyone’s faces turned solemn. They knew that Su Mo could not always stay in Firmament Palace. Once Su Mo left, Firmament Palace would be doomed!

“It would be best to leave Tushan Town!” Su Mo said quietly. He was unafraid of the Taishi Family Faction Disciples. He was worried about the Sorcerer Tribe.

He had bad blood with the Sorcerer Tribe and everyone knew about this. If the Sorcerer Tribe found out that he was still alive, it would really spell trouble.
