Warrior's Promise

Chapter 1664: It Was So Horrifying

After Su Mo put on the jade pendant to seal his cultivation level, he immediately felt the seal entering his body.

The seal was mysterious. It immediately suppressed his cultivation level and brought it down to the Initial Stage of Rank 1 Martial Honored Realm.

Other than that, the seal suppressed his Blood Force power and mental strength.

Suddenly, his strength went down more than 10-fold.

“Shangguan Hao? Are you the one who have defeated Zhu Ying?”

When Jin Lu heard his name, he was suddenly enlightened. He did not know Su Mo, but some time ago, he had heard that someone had sent Zhu Ying flying off with one blow.

The one who had done so was by the name of Shangguan Hao.

“Yes, I am!” Su Mo nodded.

When the people heard Su Mo, they suddenly realized that the youth in the red armor was Shangguan Hao, who had defeated Zhu Ying.

Shangguan Hao and Zhu Ying were both at Rank 3 Martial Honored Realm. Since he could send Zhu Ying flying off with one blow, his combat strength must be amazing.

When Zhu Ying heard that from his seat, his face darkened.

He was afraid to hear the people bringing up the incident, but Jin Lu had brought it up in front of everyone and that made him feel embarrassed.

However, Zhu Ying was elated to see Shangguan Hao at the field.

He did not believe that Shangguan Hao was a match for Jin Lu and he would be seriously injured by him. In that way, Jin Lu would be teaching Shangguan Hao a lesson on his behalf.

“You are good. Since you have defeated Zhu Ying, it goes to show that you have strong combat strength!”

Jin Lu smiled and nodded. He then changed his tone and made fun of Su Mo, saying, “However, I have to make myself clear. It is unavoidable to get injured in the sparring. If you have been injured, I hope that you will not be a sore loser like Zhuo Hen.”

Jin Lu’s words resounded in the entire banquet, and the people knew that he would not be showing any mercy.

Many people turned to look at Gu Tianyi and saw that he looked calm. That made them feel puzzled. Could it be that Shangguan Hao has the combat strength to contend with Jin Lu?

Light flashed at the corner of the eyes of the First Prince. He stole a glance at Gu Tianyi and was baffled when he saw Gu Tianyi’s calm look.

However, he knew that his brother was cunning. He would not show his emotions openly and it was difficult to know what he was thinking.

“Brother Yuan, when shall we act?”

The charming Taishi Xiang Yue, who was seated at the other side, asked Taishi Yuan, who was sitting beside her, through sound transmission. She did not take her eyes off Su Mo.

She knew that Jin Lu was no match for Su Mo, as Su Mo had already proven himself by having extraordinary combat strength.

“Wait!” Taishi Yuan replied through sound transmission. It was not time for them to act, but once he did so, he would make sure that he killed Su Mo with one blow.

“All right!” Taishi Xiang Yue nodded.

At the Square, when Su Mo heard Jin Lu making fun of him, he simply replied, “Stop uttering nonsense. You only have the chance to throw out one blow. Do it now!”

“What?”

When Jin Lu heard it, he was stunned. He then squinted his eyes and said coldly, “Do I only have the chance to throw out one blow? I don’t think that the joke is funny!”

“You are too noisy! Since you are not doing it, I shall strike!”

Su Mo said coldly. He was not interested in talking to Jin Lu. After he made his statement, he immediately struck.

He stretched out his huge hand and grabbed the air around Jin Lu.

Suddenly, Dark Force shot out from Su Mo and formed a three-colored Dark Force Palm which was the size of a millstone.

The Dark Force Palm was solid and its force was majestic. It smashed the space up and was near Jin Lu in an instant.

“What?”

One would know a master the moment he struck. When Jin Lu saw the attack from Su Mo, his expression changed.

The aura from the blow was too powerful. The Dark Force fluctuation had way surpassed an ordinary Rank 1 Martial Honored Realm martial artist.

Moreover, the attack from the Dark Force Palm was quick. In the twinkle of an eye, it was before Jin Lu.

Jin Lu could not duck away on time and he quickly brandished the long, green sword in his hand at the Dark Force Palm that was before him.

Boom!

The long green sword slashed hard at the Dark Force Palm, causing the force to explode.

The long green sword was being thrown off and was unable to harm the three-colored Dark Force Palm.

The three-colored Dark Force Palm then grabbed ahold of Jin Lu, leaving only his head outside its palm.

“How can this be?” Jin Lu was shocked. He had not expected Shangguan Hao’s combat strength to be so powerful. The blow did not seem to have been thrown out by a Rank 1 Martial Honored Realm martial artist. Can it be that his cultivation level has not been suppressed?

Jin Lu did not have time to dwell on it. He immediately activated the Dark Force in his body and tried to get away from the Dark Force Palm.

In the next instant, a horrifying power like that of an ocean squeezed toward his body crazily.

Su Mo’s face looked indifferent. After he had caught ahold of Jin Lu, he exerted force with his hand and gently squeezed him.

Pom! Pom! Pom!

Explosive sounds resounded due to the pressure that Su Mo had exerted and Jin Lu’s Body Protection Dark Force burst out.

Bone-cracking sounds were heard and they sounded frightening.

Ah!

Poof!

Jin Lu screamed as though he was being slaughtered. He then spurted out a mouthful of blood that shot high up into the sky like a fountain.

Within the blood was a large amount of debris from his internal organs as well and they were all mashed up.

After Su Mo had gently squeezed Jin Lu, he released his Dark Force Palm. The Palm then turned into air billows and dissipated, and Jin Lu laid crippled on the ground.

When the people looked at Jin Lu, they gasped. This… this is no longer a human form!

Other than his head that remained unscathed, Jin Lu’s body had been squeezed into a dough twist and he looked horrible.

It was traumatizing to see that Jin Lu’s arms and the long green sword had been squeezed into his body and he looked wretched.

Other than Jin Lu’s howling sounds, the entire Square was in dead silence.

The people widened their eyes and fixed their gaze on Jin Lu, who had been deformed. After a long while, they still could not come back to themselves.

Everything had happened too fast!

Jin Lu had been defeated almost in the twinkle of an eye and he had been badly beaten.

No one had expected to see such an outcome. It was beyond what they had anticipated.

Shangguan Hao’s combat strength was indeed horrifying!

Only a few people were not surprised by Shangguan Hao. They were Gu Tianyi, Taishi Yuan, and Taishi Xiang Yue.

The three of them were well aware of Su Mo’s combat strength.

Su Mo looked at Jin Lu indifferently and he showed no sign of sympathy for him. Jin Lu was presumptuous and ruthless. When he injured the others, he had to be prepared to be injured as well!

Since he had been ruthless, Su Mo would not show him any mercy!
