Warrior’s Promise

Su Mo walked out of the palace and looked around. Not many changes had been made to Dragon Tribe and it looked the same as before.

Dragon Tribe did not have many members, and as the tribe occupied a large area, the buildings were far apart from one another.

​ 

Great!

Su Mo looked around and when he saw the people, he heaved a sigh of relief.

When he was in seclusion, something must have happened to the Dragon Tribe. The men from Sky Tyrant Tribe must have been there.

Judging from the situation, the two parties had not gotten into a fierce fight.

“Look, it’s Su Mo! He is out of seclusion!”

“He has been here for almost two years!”

“I have never seen him around!”

Some men from Dragon Tribe who were nearby saw Su Mo and they started to talk amongst themselves.

It was no secret that Su Mo was at Dragon Tribe and all the nine mountains in God’s Path knew about it.

More than one year ago, the top powers from Sky Tyrant Clan and Sorcerer Tribe had almost brought their entire tribe over to Dragon Tribe.

They had wanted to capture Su Mo.

Although the top powers from Sky Tyrant Clan had asked Dragon Tribe for Su Mo, they had had to leave empty-handed as Dragon Tribe refused to accede to their request.

Apparently, Sky Tyrant Clan did not want to get into a war with Dragon Tribe because of Su Mo.

Swoosh!

At that moment, a figure flew over to Su Mo.

It was a tall young man. He was good-looking, and he was in a golden robe.

“Long Teng!”

Su Mo was surprised to see Long Teng.

“Su Mo, we have not seen each other for three years. How have you been?”

Very quickly, Long Teng came before Su Mo, looking happy.

“Long Teng, when did you come to God’s Path?” Su Mo asked in amazement. When he sized Long Teng up, he noticed that Long Teng was still a King Sage and he had not reached the Empty God Realm.

Su Mo was surprised as Long Teng had great talent. However, after such a long time, he had not advanced to the Empty God Realm.

“I have been here for half a year. Since you were in seclusion, I did not want to disturb you!” Long Teng said with a smile.

“I see. How is the Firmament Palace?” Su Mo nodded and asked about Firmament Palace.

Since Long Teng was at God’s Path, Firmament Palace would be in danger if no one was around to protect it.

“Don’t worry. Firmament Palace is doing fine. Moreover, Li Feng is there so you don’t have to worry about it!” Long Teng replied with a smile.

Li Feng had wanted to come to God’s Path but only one of them could make the trip.

In the end, Li Feng did not fight over the trip with Long Teng and decided to wait for another two years.

“Great!”

Su Mo nodded. He then said with a smile, “Long Teng, I made it before you. When do you intend to go to the Empty God Realm?”

“Soon. At most, another three to five months!” Long Teng said confidently. He had been cultivating and was not far from breaking through to Rank 1 Empty God Realm.

However, when he noticed that Su Mo was out of seclusion, he stopped his cultivation.

“You must work hard and have a breakthrough soon!” Su Mo said with a smile. He was happy to see Long Teng.

“I will!”

Long Teng nodded. He then said with a smile, “I have yet to congratulate you for breaking through to the Empty God Realm!”

Su Mo smiled when he heard it. Before he could respond to Long Teng, a group of people walked toward them.

There were more than 20 people, and they had two horns on their heads. All of them were young.

All of them were Empty Gods, and there were four Rank 3 Empty Gods among them.

The one at the forefront was a burly young man in a golden robe. He had a golden crown on his head, and he had a square face. He looked prestigious.

“Su Mo, that is Long Daotian, Prince of Dragon Tribe. He is ranked number five on God’s Path’s Ten Great Saints. He is also a Five Claws Golden Dragon like me.”

Long Teng whispered to Su Mo as he turned around to look at the youth with the golden crown.

Although Long Teng was with the Dragon Tribe for only a short period of time, he knew most of the top powers there.

After he had come to Dragon Tribe, he had been valued as he was a Five Claws Golden Dragon.

Su Mo nodded and looked indifferent. He was waiting to see what the Prince was up to!

After a while, Long Daotian came before Su Mo with the group of top powers.

“Are you Su Mo?”

Long Daotian looked at Su Mo and laughed. He then said, “What’s so great about you? I wonder why the Holy Sage thinks highly of you!”

Su Mo did not say a word. He realized that Long Daotian was unhappy because the Holy Sage had thought highly of him.

“Well, you will have to ask the Holy Sage!” Su Mo replied flatly.

When Long Daotian heard what Su Mo had said, he sneered, “Su Mo, I am here to tell you that you don’t have to do anything for the fight over the Dawn Stone Mine. I can handle it. We can do it without you.”

Long Daotian was unhappy when he learned that Dragon Tribe had allowed Su Mo to take part in the fight over the Dawn Stone Mine. It showed their lack of confidence in him.

Moreover, the Holy Sage had wanted Su Mo to fight for the top position. He must be kidding!

If Long Daotian could not obtain the top position, Su Mo would not be able to do so either!

Long Daotian looked at Su Mo with disdain. He knew a little about Su Mo, that he was powerful.

However, if a Rank 1 Empty God could obtain the top position, that would be the greatest joke in the world.

At times, Long Daotian could not help wondering if the Holy Sage was muddle-headed as he was aged.

That was a thought in his mind and he dared not verbalize it.

“Oh?”

Su Mo smiled when he heard it. He shrugged and said, “If you can get the top position, I won’t have to step in.”

Long Daotian’s face darkened when he heard it. The top powers behind him looked unhappy as well.

The statement sounded fine.

However, the underlying message was implying that Su Mo was more powerful than Long Daotian.

If Long Daotian managed to get the top position, Su Mo would not have to do anything. However, if Long Daotian was unable to get the top position, Su Mo would have to step in!

“You are presumptuous!”

Long Daotian was furious. However, he suppressed his desire to spar with Su Mo.

After all, the tribe was out to protect Su Mo. The Holy Sage would be unhappy if he had a clash with him.

“Su Mo, when we have a fight, you will know that we don’t need you at all!” Long Daotian said coldly and turned to leave.

He had to enhance his combat strength. He would let the Holy Sage and everyone in Dragon Tribe know that he was the only one who could get resources for the tribe. Su Mo was not fit to do so.

“I am looking forward to seeing that!” Su Mo said. He became curious about Long Daotian’s combat strength since he looked so confident.

The young top powers sneered and followed Long Daotian.

They were Long Daotian’s supporters and thus, naturally, they were unhappy with Su Mo.

“Su Mo, don’t take it to heart. He means no harm.”

After Long Daotian and the top powers had left, Long Teng sighed and told Su Mo.

Long Teng was not close to Long Daotian. He simply did not want Su Mo to feel estranged from the Dragon Tribe.

“I am fine!”

Su Mo shook his head. He knew that Long Doatian did not mean any harm. Long Daotian must have felt that the tribe did not trust his abilities.

He felt so as the tribe wanted Su Mo to get the top position.

“Alright. Long Teng, start working on your cultivation. I have to get out of Dragon Tribe for a while!” Su Mo said.

“Su Mo, will you get into danger if you leave Dragon Tribe?” Long Teng asked and knitted his brows when he heard what Su Mo had said. He knew the situation that Su Mo was in.

“Don’t worry. I know what I am doing!”

Su Mo then waved his hand and left in a flash.
