Warrior’s Promise

Su Mo stood before the stone house and glanced at the two of them. They had no cultivation. He said in a deep voice, “I’m looking for Li Feng!”

When the two heard that Su Mo was looking for Li Feng, they became nervous.

The man’s expression suddenly changed. He bit his lip and said, “Master, there is no such person here. You may want to look for him elsewhere!”

“Oh?”

Su Mo frowned and was puzzled.

“They should be Li Feng’s parents! Li Feng is obviously in the stone house, but why did the man lie?”

Then, he said softly, “Don’t worry, I mean no harm. I’m Li Feng’s friend from Gale Island!”

After pondering for a while, Su Mo told the man.

“Gale Island?”

The man was stunned, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, “Li Feng is in the house. Come with me!”

Having said that, he led Su Mo into the stone house.

The woman had stopped cooking and followed behind.

The stone house was small, slightly over 20 square meters. It was well kept.

There were two wooden beds in the house, and Li Feng was lying on one of them. He looked thin and had bruises on his face.

When he saw Li Feng, Su Mo frowned and felt terrible!

Li Feng opened his eyes upon hearing the sound of footsteps. Without lifting his head, he asked, “Father, Mother, is the food ready?”

“Li Feng, it’s me!”

Su Mo took a deep breath and walked toward Li Feng.

Upon hearing Su Mo’s voice, Li Feng shivered and slowly turned his head over.

“Su Mo!”

When he saw Su Mo standing before him, Li Feng’s eyes turned red.

For a moment, they gazed at each other and did not utter a word.

Su Mo pondered for a while and asked, “Li Feng, what has happened? Have you been chased out by the Lis?”

Upon hearing this, Li Feng shut his eyes and took a deep breath. He then opened his eyes again and said, “Never mention it. Let’s talk about you! How have you been?”

Su Mo did not reply to him but fixed his gaze on Li Feng. He said in a deep voice, “Li Feng, tell me what has happened.”

Seeing Su Mo’s persistence, Li Feng was silent for a while and then let out a sigh and said, “I’m now a useless man. Hence, the Li family is unwilling to support me!”

Li Feng said in a low voice and sounded disheartened.

“But they shouldn’t have chased you out!” Su Mo said with a frown.

“Li Feng is the Lis’ relative. How can they chase him out simply because Li Feng has become crippled! They are so heartless!”

Li Feng let out another sigh and said, “My parents are ordinary people. They did not awaken their Martial Souls. I was well treated and groomed by the Lis previously because I have talent. Among the younger generations, I ranked within the top three. Now that I have become crippled and am no longer talented, there is no reason for the Lis to treat me well!”

Li Feng sounded calm, but Su Mo could see the hatred in his eyes!

Li Feng hated the Lis!

This was understandable. Anyone in his shoes would be filled with hatred.

Su Mo’s eyes were filled with killing intent. His buddy had been ill-treated. How could he remain indifferent?

“Li Feng, what has happened to your face?”

Su Mo saw the bruises on Li Feng’s face and was curious. Li Feng had obviously hurt himself.

Li Feng’s limbs had not recovered and he could not move about. How could he have hurt himself?

Su Mo recalled Li Feng’s father’s earlier behavior. He turned to look at Li Jiang and asked, “Uncle, why did you refuse to tell me earlier that Li Feng is here?”

Upon hearing this, Li Jiang said bitterly, “Recently, a lot of people often came here and…”

Before Li Jiang could finish his sentence, a laughter was heard outside the stone house.

“Hahaha! Where is our great genius!”

“Hahaha, what do you mean ‘a great genius’? He’s now a useless person. He is worse than a dog!”

“That’s right! A dog can still crawl! But our great genius can’t even crawl!”

A few arrogant voices were heard outside the stone house, followed by the sound of footsteps. A few youths walked into the house.

When Li Jiang and Li Feng’s mother saw them, they turned pale.

When Li Feng saw them, he looked furious.

Su Mo squinted his eyes and instantly realized how Li Feng got his bruises!

There were four of them, around 15 years old. Each of them was well dressed and looked tyrannical.

When they stepped into the stone house and saw Su Mo, they could not be bothered with him.

The one leading in front was a good looking youth. He went straight to Li Feng’s bed and said with a sneer, “Oh no! Why has our great genius not recovered from his bruises?”

“Li Yi!”

Li Feng’s face turned red, and looked at him furiously, gnashing his teeth.

Li Yi was the cause of the bruises on his face.

When Li Yi saw Li Feng staring at him, he sneered and said, “How dare you stare at me? Do you think that you are still the genius? Trust me, I will dig your eyeballs out and crush them right now!”

Ever since Li Feng had become crippled, Li Yi was beaming with joy.

Although Li Yi was the young master of the Lis, he was not respected in the family because his talent was mediocre. He could not even become a disciple of the four sects.

Li Feng was only related to the Lis. His parents were not martial artists, but Li Feng managed to awaken his Martial Soul of the Rank 7 Human Class. He was respected by the family and had become a disciple of Gale Island.

All these made Li Yi envious!

When Li Feng was the genius, his cultivation was higher than Li Yi, so Li Yi could not deal with him.

Now that Li Feng had become crippled, it was his chance to trample Li Feng.

Although Li Feng had been chased out of the Lis, Li Yi had never let him off. Every now and then, he would visit Li Feng, either to jeer at him or to beat him up.

Li Yi felt good being able to torture the previous genius of the Lis!

“Dig the eyeballs out and crush them?”

A killing intent flashed across Su Mo’s eyes.

Li Feng’s parents were terrified when they heard that Li Yi wanted to dig Li Feng’s eyes out.

Li Jiang quickly stepped forward and begged Li Yi, “Young master, I beg you! Please let Feng’er off!”

Having said that, Li Jiang turned to Li Feng and shouted at him, “Feng’er, apologize to young master!”

After hearing his father’s words, Li Feng kept quiet.

He was not in the wrong. Why should he apologize!

“Old man, who has given you the permission to talk!”

Li Jiang pleaded with Li Yi, but Li Yi could not be bothered with him. He lifted his palm to hit Li Jiang.

Although the blow was not powerful, if it struck an ordinary person like Li Jiang, he would be badly hurt even if he did not get killed.

“Father!”

Li Feng cried out in shock.

As Li Yi’s palm was about to strike onto Li Jiang’s body, a hand appeared and caught hold of Li Yi’s arm.

Li Yi felt as though his arm had been caught by a pincer, and could not move.

“Who are you? Are you tired of living?”

Seeing that Su Mo had stopped him, Li Yi shouted at Su Mo.

Su Mo’s face darkened. He did not look at Li Yi, but looked straight at Li Feng and asked, “How should I kill him? Chop him into pieces or stab to death? You decide!”
