Warrior’s Promise

A couple of young martial artists were walking in a mountain range crawling with demonic beasts in Daqing Country. There were five of them, three boys and two girls.

They all had been well-trained and had come here to hunt demonic beasts.

A stunning girl who was about 17 years old walked in the middle, surrounded by the others. She was clearly their leader.

“Sister Wanqiu, why are there fewer and fewer demonic beasts in the Evilwind Mountains? After all this time, we’ve only run into three Upper Lv 2 demonic beasts, and they were all Medium Lv 2 Demonic Beasts!” said a green-clothed maiden, frowned. She was also around 17 years old and walking next to the stunning girl.

The Sister Wanqiu she called was a radiant beauty. Wanqiu chuckled lightly and teased, “Xiao Qing, then you should take care of any Upper Lv 2 demonic beasts we run into!”

Xiao Qing plastered a bitter look and said with a pout, “Sister Wanqiu, I’m the weakest one at the Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm. How can I take on an Upper Lv 2?”

The stunning girl said with a smile, “Then why are you complaining about running into low-level demonic beasts?”

“Sister Wanqiu, I’m thinking on your behalf!”

Xiao Qing’s words made everyone laugh.

Sister Wanqiu’s name was Tong Wanqiu, and she was a martial artist at the Peak Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm. The three young men here were all at the Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.

Tong Wanqiu belonged to the Tongs, one of the top 10 families in the Blackjade City. Tong Wanqiu was the daughter of the Tongs’ Master.

Among the Tongs’ disciples, Tong Wanqiu’s cultivating talents were unparalleled. She had a Rank 9 Human Class Martial Soul and was certain to enter into the True Spirit Realm in a couple of years.

These mountains held countless Lv 2 demonic beasts and were not far from the Blackjade City, so Tong Wanqiu often came here to hunt for demonic beasts with fellow disciples.

They continued in the mountains until they soon reached a large river.

“Oh? Look, a demonic beast is eating someone!”

Among them, a young man around 20 years old, suddenly pointed to the edge of the river and shouted.

Everyone looked up and saw a Class 5 Lv 2 Demonic Wolf eating a man in a long moon white robe who was lying on the ground.

“Mutt, how dare you!”

Moved by this pitiful sight, Tong Wanqiu yelled and swiftly darted over.

Swoosh!

She wielded her long sword, which shot out a violent burst of sword Qi toward the Demonic Wolf.

Splash!

Tong Wanqiu was indeed a martial artist at the Peak Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm, and the Class 5 Lv 2 demonic beast was instantly killed by her.

Then, Tong Wanqiu walked towards the corpse that the demonic beast was chewing on, and the other four people followed.

They saw that he was a handsome young man who was around 16 years old.

He looked very pale. He must be heavily injured.

He was Su Mo!

After battling with Pang He, Su Mo was heavily injured. Pang He’s last punch was incredibly powerful, and it smashed Su Mo straight into the river.

Then, Su Mo passed out and floated to this location.

Tong Wanqiu and her group studied him more clearly and all felt confused.

“Wasn’t he just being chewed by the demonic beast? How come he doesn’t have any injuries on him?” Tong Wanqiu asked in shock.

Only Su Mo’s clothes were torn up by the demonic beast, but his body did not have a single scratch on it.

“What’s going on? This is so strange!”

The other four were also completely puzzled.

Dong Wanqiu inspected him and exclaimed, “He’s still breathing, and he has a strong aura of life about him!”

Everyone was shocked. This person must have been lying there for a long time and his body chewed on by a demonic beast, yet not only did he die, but he also did not have a single wound on him!

After a while, Tong Wanqiu sighed and took out a green elixir to feed Su Mo.

“Sister Wanqiu, that’s Ninefold Elixir, the priceless Lv 3 Spiritual Herb! How could you give it to him?” Xiao Qing exclaimed and tried to stop Tong Wanqiu.

“Yes! Cousin Wanqiu, this elixir is too precious. How can you give it to a complete stranger?” said another handsome young man.

“Xiao Qing, Cousin Liang Yao, since we ran into this man, I can’t just let him die!” Tong Wanqiu said confidently with a serious face.

Then, she fed Su Mo a Ninefold Elixir and two regular Lv 2 healing elixirs.

Ninefold Elixir was very effective. After Su Mo swallowed it, his pale face regained a hint of color.

However, he was still unconscious!

“Cousin, what are you going to do with him?” Liang Yao asked with a frown, looking at Su Mo.

Tong Wanqiu thought for a while and said, “Let’s take him back to the Tong Mansion! We’ve been out here for two days, and it’s time to return anyway.”

Liang Yao said with a frown, “Cousin, we have no idea who he is, where he’s from, or what he’s here to do. Do you really think it’s wise to bring him back to our family? This person might also have been heavily injured by some powerful figure, so what if we cause trouble for our family by taking him in?”

He paused for a second and continued, “Also, there is something strange about this man. Even after being chewed by a Class 5 Lv 2 demonic beast, he had no injuries on him. I don’t think even a master of the True Spirit Realm could achieve that!”

Liang Yao blabbered on to Tong Wanqiu about all the possible harms of taking Su Mo to the Tongs.

He had always viewed his stunning cousin as a goddess and did not want her to care about a stranger this much.

Dong Wanqiu’s face grew dark, and she said in frustration, “Cousin Liang Yao, I’ve made up my mind. Please stop talking!”

Dong Wanqiu was determined and did not care what others thought.

Liang Yao sighed in defeat. His cousin was a very stubborn person, and no one could change her mind.

“Tong Kai, carry him on your back! Let’s go home!” Tong Wanqiu turned to another young man and said.

The young man nodded, picked up Su Mo, and left for home with others.
