Warrior’s Promise

“Luo Qianfan, long time no see!”

Su Mo said with a smile, going to Luo Qianfan.

Luo Qianfan had already spotted Su Mo. He chuckled and said, “Encounters do happen when it’s meant to be. Su Mo, we could fight together again for this task!”

Su Mo nodded and looked Luo Qianfan over, his eyes lighting up.

Luo Qianfan, who had restrained breaths and deep eyes, was equipped with an unspeakable but introverted temperament, from which Su Mo felt sure Luo Qianfan’s cultivation was no worse than his.

Su Mo was inwardly surprised because he knew well he had reached today’s realm in a short time owing to his Devouring Martial Spirit.

Luo Qianfan, however, shouldn’t have enjoyed such rapid progress. It was just incredible.

“It’s only been three months since we last met. I see you have made great progress!”

Su Mo admired.

“Ho-ho!”

Luo Qianfan chuckled, shaking his head, and added, “Still a long way for me to match you! Your name is widely known to the outer gate now.”

Su Mo forced a smile. He knew it was a bad reputation.

He had brought shame on the Sky Alliance. Their members would not let it go.

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

Soggy footsteps sounded. A robust young man walked slowly out of Scorching Sun Sect’s crowd.

Two meters in height, this man was extremely strong and muscular like a bear. His muscles bulged out.

His arms were as brawny as the thighs of common people. The muscles on his arms twisted like flying dragons.

“Are you Su Mo?”

The young man asked flatly, sounding like dull thunder. He came toward Su Mo.

I am!” Su Mo answered. He nodded, looking into the man’s eyes.

“Good!”

The man said with a grin, and added, “You injured more than 20 Scorching Sun Sect’s disciples. You owe us an explanation!”

Su Mo squinted and looked him over, a grim look on his face.

This man possessed beast-like breaths which intensively oppressed him.

“What should I do then?” Su Mo answered indifferently.

666

“Stay alive after taking three punches, or I won’t let you off!” the young man said arrogantly.

He wore an absolutely confident look.

“You sure?” Su Mo asked with a sneer.

Three days ago, another disciple from the Scorching Sun Sect had blustered to let Su Mo take three axes.

That disciple had failed.

Now this man was also asking Su Mo to take three strikes.

“Ha-ha! This will be interesting!”

“I know this man. He is Shi Long, a talent from the outer gate of the Scorching Sun Sect.”

“Shi Long is a Body-refining Expert. He is so mighty that he can easily tear up tigers and leopards.”

“Shi Long’s human body owns a force equaling that of over 30 tigers. Though he’s only at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm, he is no worse than normal martial artists at Lv 6.”

Murmurs came from Sky Yuan Sect’s direction.

Sky Yuan Sect’s disciples did nothing but gloat.

The Sky Rapier Sect’s members were also taking pleasure in this fight.

The Sky Rapier Sect did not recruit many disciples. As the supreme of the four sects in Skymoon Country, its members were too arrogant to communicate with fellow disciples of the other three sects.

The Sky Rapier Sect’s disciples ranked first in the four sects for their individual strength. Members from other sects dared not provoke them.

On the other side, the Scorching Sun Sect’s members all sneered. Many who had been defeated by Su Mo could not wait to see his retribution.

They expected Shi Long would crush Su Mo.

Gale Island’s members, on the contrary, looked uneasy for fear that Su Mo would disgrace Gale Island.

Especially those who had been defeated three days ago by the Scorching Sun Sect. They hoped they would not witness Su Mo’s defeat.

A few Gale Island’s disciples, however, wore smiles. Yu Xiong was one.

There were Gale Island disciples whose cultivation was no worse than that of Shi Long, but they just coldly looked on.

Su Mo raised his eyebrows and gazed calmly at Shi Long.

“Body-refining expert?”

“Force equaling that of over 30 tigers?”

“Could even fight with martial artists at Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm only depending on his human body?”

“My human body strength is not much worse than his.”

“But he is after all at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm.”

“Senior Brother Su Mo! Don’t!”

Li Feng growled at Su Mo, shaking his head. He looked at Shi Long, adding, “Your Scorching Sun Sect’s men said rude words first and bullied our Gale Island’s disciples. Otherwise, Senior Brother Su Mo wouldn’t have injured your fellow brothers!”

He was so convinced by Su Mo now that he even added “Senior Brother” to address Su Mo.

“Get away!”

Shi Long answered and swung his hands. A wave of Qi directly shot Li Feng, causing him to squirt blood. He stepped back.

“A small fry is not qualified to talk to me.”

Shi Long was extremely domineering. He wounded Li Feng with a mere swing of his hands. He looked back at Su Mo, saying, “Whatever the reason, you should take my fury since you injured my fellow brothers!”

With these words Shi Long began to release his gushing genuine Qi, disregarding whether Su Mo accepted or not. Shi Long’s fists, as big as crock pots, were wrapped with red radiance. He elevated his imposing manner and prepared to fight.

“Li Feng, are you okay?” Su Mo asked, looking back at Li Feng with sharp eyes.

666

“I’m fine!”

Li Feng looked a little pale but nodded his head.

Su Mo nodded, stared back at Shi Long, and said, “Come on!”

Su Mo was uncertain if he could defeat Shi Long, but he would never flinch when humiliated.

“Ha-ha! Take my first punch!” Shi Long said and laughed.

Lifting a fist, he threw a punch at Su Mo’s chest.

Shi Long’s punch contained overwhelming fist force. The air burst in a flash and his huge fists were very mighty, as if they were the weight of Mount Taishan.

Clang!

Faced with such a powerful punch, Su Mo dared not distract his attention. He immediately released four Spiritual Spirals that revolved round him. He unsheathed his long sword with boiling genuine Qi. One strike chopped out.

“Gale Blade!”

Dazzling sword radiance transformed into a wind blade which merged into the void. It cut Shi Long’s fists severely.

Boom!

Earsplitting sounds astounded the crowd.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Shi Long stood still like a monolith after a violent collision.

Su Mo, however, took five steps back to stand steadily.

“So powerful!”

Su Mo became inwardly shocked. His Qi blood was burning, and his arm with the sword in hand was vibrating fiercely, limp and numb.

Shi Long’s cultivation was at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm. Combined with his strong human body, Shi Long could fairly match normal martial artists who were at Lv 6.

Su Mo, in terms of both cultivation and human body, had made great progress. His Divine Wind Swordplay was approaching the Peak of the Great Completion.

But he was still much weaker than Shi Long.

The gap between them was too big!

They differed by three realms.

“He took it!”

“Su Mo took that!”

“Wow, incredible!”

All present were shocked.

“You’re pretty good! Now take my second punch!”

Shi Long grew his fighting desire with a bellow, as if he were a Human-shaped Beast. His iron fists glared.

“Give up!”

Shi Long yelled raising his fists.

“Stop!”

A sudden voice came over. It contained extremely strong genuine Qi.

Everyone was startled by this shout.

Shi Long groaned and broke his imposing manner.

Following the voice, the people in the crowd saw two middle-aged men not far from them. They were striding fast, with steps like a dragon’s gambol and a tiger’s prance.

One of the two men was gorgeously dressed and imparted a dignified appearance.

The other, tall and whiskered, wore a hoary armor and sent forth a strong evil spirit.

A mere glimpse caused Su Mo to turn dumbstruck. A chilling fear arose.

“Expert!”

“He must be an absolute expert!”
