Warrior’s Promise

Murong Wudi reluctantly rejected Su Mo.

He did not want to go back on his words, but he could not actually give Mountains-weight Skill to Su Mo, or he would be severely punished by his Master.

In this world, it was a big taboo to give away martial art techniques that had been bestowed by one’s Master. In the best case scenario, one would be severely punished, and in the worst, expelled from his sect.

Even if he would be seen as a dishonest person, Murong Wudi could not give Mountains-weight Skill to Su Mo.

After a brief silence, Murong Wudi said, “Su Mo, although I can’t give you this cultivation skill, I will pay you back with treasures equivalent to its value.”

Squinting, Su Mo replied, “Murong Wudi, are you trying to go back on your own words?”

Su Mo did not want anything else as Mountains-weight Skill was too suitable for him.

With a dark face, Murong Wudi clasped his fists at Su Mo, saying, “Su Mo, it’s not my intention to break my promise. I hope you can understand!”

Murong Wudi knew he was in the wrong, so he spoke courteously to Su Mo.

With a solemn expression, Su Mo kept quiet and stared at him.

Murong Wudi felt uneasy because he was afraid that Su Mo would not give up and put him in a tough spot. After all, there were countless people watching them!

After a long silence, Su Mo suddenly burst into laughter.

“Hahaha!” Su Mo laughed with a scornful expression, saying, “Murong Wudi, as the sect Master’s pro-disciple and someone who claim to be peerless, you don’t even have the courage to honor your words. How are you qualified to be the sect Master’s pro-disciple? How are you qualified to be called a ungodly genius?”

Su Mo loud voice echoed in all directions, causing many faces complicated.

“You…!” Murong Wudi was enraged, but he could not retaliate since he was at fault.

“Hmph! Am I wrong?” Su Mo scoffed, shook his head, and said with a sigh, “There’s nothing I can do to make you give me Mountains-weight Skill. After all, it’s normal for a man of your prestige to bully a normal disciple like myself!”

“However, a dishonest person like you is truly an insult to the reputation of Celestialspirit Sect. You’ve brought shame to the hundreds of thousands of disciples in Celestialspirit Sect!”

Su Mo was on the moral high ground and spoke like he was oppressed. Each of his sentences revealed the harsh truth.

Everyone was dumbfounded that Su Mo acted like he was actually oppressed.

However, they could not help but be amazed by Su Mo eloquency.

“I… I…!”

Murong Wudi’s face went red. He knew that Su Mo was taunting him, but Su Mo was being reasonable. As the pro-disciple of Celestialspirit Sect’s sect Master and an absolute genius, he would never be able to stand tall in Celestialspirit Sect anymore if he really went back on his words.

However, he could not bring himself to give Su Mo his Mountains-weight Skill. This was not just for the sake of his Master, for he had his own reasons as well. After all, which martial artist would give his unique skill away?

Murong Wudi was in a dilemma and had no solutions.

Just then, a majestic voice sounded across the entire Celestialspirit Sect.

“Wudi, give it to him!” The majestic voice sounded indifferent, but it was irrefutable.

“Master!” Murong Wudi’s expression changed.

“Sect Master!” Countless disciples and elders were also shocked that the sect Master had been alerted.

Su Mo was similarly taken aback.

However, he was delighted to hear the sect Master, because it meant that Murong Wudi could no longer go back on his promise!

After taking a deep breath, Murong Wudi nodded and said respectfully, “Yes, Master!”

He then took out a jade notes and said to Su Mo, “Mountains-weight Skill is recorded in these jade notes!”

Murong Wudi then threw it to Su Mo.

Su Mo accepted the jade notes with a smile and kept it without checking its contents. Since the sect Master had spoken, Murong Wudi could not possibly give him a fake.

Murong Wudi took a deep breath and looked at Su Mo intently before leaving.

As the gamble fight ended, the spectating crowd burst into an uproar.

“Su Mo is truly ungodly. He’ll known by the entire Celestialspirit Sect now!”

“Another peerless genius has joined Towering Sky Peak!”

“Su Mo’s Martial Soul seems incredible. It appears to be able to affect his opponent’s strength!”

Everyone chatted over each other noisily.

Su Mo wanted to continue the gamble fight to earn Spiritual Stones, but it seemed to be impractical at this moment.

Sighing internally, Su Mo nodded at Hong Qingxuan before he left and headed toward Towering Sky Peak.

Not before long, Su Mo had returned to his residence.

In the palace not far away, a pair of eyes lit up with unknown intentions while gazing at Su Mo.

After returning to his residence, Su Mo could not wait to enter the training room on the third floor to study Mountains-weight Skill.

“Hehe! What an effortless win…”

Walking up the stairs, Su Mo could not help bursting into laughter, but it did not take long before he stopped laughing.

This was because a gorgeous person was standing before the stairs. It was Cai Yun, who was wearing a black robe.

She shot him a cold gaze and said flatly, “A scoundrel gets his way!”

“Uh…”

Su Mo was startled, and his face soon turned dark. ” Is she crazy? Not only did I not offend her, I also brought her out of the Horned-demon Territory, so she is in debt to me!”

It was fine if she was not grateful, but she did not have to be so mean.

“How am I a scoundrel?” Su Mo sneered and asked.

Instead of answering him, Cai Yun only replied coldly, “Take me out of Celestialspirit Sect!”

“Out of Celestialspirit Sect?” Su Mo fell into a brief thought, before he nodded and said, “Fine! I’ll bring you out when I have time!”

He then walked toward the third floor.

It was indeed a bad idea for her to stay here for too long. Su Mo was already kind enough to bring her out, so what happened afterward had nothing to do with him.

He was not going to keep her in Celestialspirit Sect just because the Horned-demon tribe once belonged to Firmament Palace. Most importantly, this girl was cold as ice and completely unapproachable, so Su Mo was not going to shower her with passion.

However, since she was not courteous, Su Mo was going to make her wait for a couple days before sending her out.

Without Su Mo, a horned demon like Cai Yun could never make it out of Celestialspirit Sect.
