Warrior’s Promise

As if he read Su Mo’s mind, Shangguan Yun smiled proudly. “That’s right. The Holy Son, Shangguan Hao, is my younger cousin!”

Shangguan Yun’s smirk radiated smugness.

As if it was a huge deal to be Shangguan Hao’s cousin.

He did have reason to be smug, however. Shangguan Hao had reached Peak Lv 9 Martial King Realm at a young age and ranked 5th on the List of Top 10,000 Continental Talents. He truly was the God’s chosen one.

With his talent, he could be the first on the List some day.

This was something that every single member of Shangguan’s family took pride in, as it had brought glory to the family name.

The Shangguan family was originally just an ordinary family from the Central Continent. However, after Shangguan Hao was born, the family’s social status increased.

Each and every Shangguan family member was proud of Shangguan Hao.

The crowd shook their heads discreetly upon seeing this.

“Shangguan Yun is bullying others again!”

“What can you do? He’s a relative of the Holy Son!”

“Who is this guy? He’d better submit to Shangguan Yun. Otherwise, he’ll be damned!”

The crowd whispered. They knew Shangguan Yun, and they were used to witnessing a scene like this.

Shangguan Yun smiled coldly and continued, “Nobody dares to piss me off in the Outer Palace! I’ll give you 6 seconds to hand me the Book of the Sky Sword. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Shangguan Yun completely looked down upon Su Mo. A Lv 6 True Darkness Realm martial artist was nothing to him.

Su Mo’s eyes narrowed as his brow furrowed. “How can he be Shangguan Hao’s cousin?”

If he fought this guy, he would catch Shangguan Hao’s attention and then get killed.

However, how could he give away something he just bought!

He had never given in to anyone in all his time in this world. Why should he start doing so for this person?

Shangguan Hao was in seclusion from the Martial Royal Realm. As long as he did not kill this guy, Shangguan Hao might not come looking for him.

Su Mo then casually said to Shangguan Yun, “I won’t give it to you. If you wanna make a move, do it!”

“What?”

Shangguan Yun’s face twisted, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He was getting livid.

“You little Lv 6 True Darkness Realm piece of sh*t. You must be tired of living!”

The crowd was surprised to hear Su Mo’s words.

“Oh my god, this guy is so arrogant!”

“It’s not arrogant. It’s stupid!”

“He’s done. He will suffer a lot even if he survives!”

“Although Shangguan Yun’s strength is not worth mentioning, there are still many experts willing to serve him!”

The crowd was shocked by Su Mo’s attitude.

Almost everyone thought that Su Mo would not get away with offending Shangguan Yun.

“Kid, you have successfully pissed me off. It’s too late for you to regret it now!”

As his voice fell, he instantly swung his fist at Su Mo.

With his speed and their proximity, Shangguan Yun’s fist approached Su Mo’s head in no time.

Shangguan Yun’s move was ruthless with the intention to kill Su Mo.

A murderous glint appeared in Su Mo’s eyes, but he suppressed the impulse of killing Shangguan Yun.

Killing Shangguan Yun would ruin his plan and put his life in danger.

“Fu*k off!”

Su Mo stepped back instantly and punched Shangguan Yun’s palm.

Boom!

With a blast, Shangguan Yun was knocked back like an arrow.

Because of the Air-sealing Formation, Shangguan Yun’s body could only slide onto the ground.

He steadied himself after sliding for 3,000 meters.

Su Mo turned around and walked away after he threw the punch. He did not even look back at Shangguan Yun.

Before leaving, he summoned the storage ring Shangguan Yun threw at him with his hand.

He took the stones as compensation for offending him.

“You…!”

Upon seeing Su Mo take his ring and leave, Shangguan Yun was incensed.

“Puff!”

He could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

He had been internally injured by Su Mo’s punch.

“Bastard!”

With his gaze locked onto Su Mo’s back, his eyes glittered with murderous intention, and he looked like a ferocious beast ready to pounce.

However, he did not get up to follow Su Mo because he knew he was no match for him.

Ever since he entered the Emperor Xuan Palace, he had never been humiliated like this because of his relation with Shangguan Hao. Even some of the Martial King Realm Inner Palace disciples were nice to him.

Now, an unknown Outer Palace disciple had hurt him. That was unacceptable.

The crowd looked on at the scene and could not believe their eyes. They had never expected Su Mo to hurt Shangguan Yun with a single punch!

“Who is this guy! He’s not weak!”

“As strong as he can be, he will die after offending Shangguan Yun.”

“Correct. Last time, a Peak Lv 9 True Darkness Realm disciple was easily killed by Shangguan Yun!”

“This guy possibly has some background too!”

“I don’t know. Let’s just wait and see. Shangguan Yun will not let this go!”

The crowd murmured. They knew that Shangguan Yun would definitely seek revenge madly!

Shangguan Yun stood up and watched Su Mo enter a tower before he left with a sneer.

Su Mo had no mood to look for books, hence he left for his residence.

He knew that Shangguan Yun would not let this incident go, so he had to prepare himself for the retaliation.

He was not scared at all. As long as Shangguan Hao did not show up, there was no disciple in the Outer Palace who could defeat him.

Outer Palace disciples had to reach Lv 1 Martial King Realm to become Inner Palace disciples.
