Warrior’s Promise

Chapter 1366: Any Idea To Resolve This?

Su Mo stayed for 10 days at Firmament Palace, merging Fighting Souls for a few others before he left.

Xi’er was particularly reluctant, and she held on tightly to Su Mo’s hand, refusing to let go.

Before he left, Su Mo gave careful instructions that You Dishi, Hai Mingjiang and Dragon King of the East Sea were to take charge of the Firmament Palace once Xi’er, Zhan Luan and the rest left.

He further said that they could accept disciples in the future provided that they were top talents.

Yet, the Firmament Palace was not allowed to expand dramatically and had to remain discreet in their growth so as to prevent attracting the attention of other superpowers.

Su Mo left a wealth of resources for the Firmament Palace, leaving only 40000 Lower Spiritual Crystals for himself while he gave the rest to them.

Including Spiritual Crystals, Spiritual Stones, weapons and martial arts, he seemed to not hesitate at all as he left these wondrous items for the Firmament Palace.

The Spiritual Stone ores in the Jade Bracelet space was also given to them and they buried it within the grounds of the palace.

Once he had settled everything, Su Mo prepared to leave Town Tushan along with Xi’er, Si Kongdan and the rest of the group. They were also prepared to travel the world.

They would leave Star Guzhou, and even Ancientspirit Galaxy, without even knowing their actual final destination.

All of them had a common goal, which was to join a strong superpower.

Once Su Mo left Town Tushan, he headed straight towards Shen Wu Academy. Activating his ‘Invisible Fighting Soul’, Su Mo hid himself carefully and was very wary of any dangers.

For this journey back to Shen Wu Academy, he had to be extra cautious and careful. Any slight warning sign and he would escape immediately.

He was sure that there was not just a single Sorcerer Tribe member on Star Guzhou now. If he wanted to escape, it would be very hard. His only choice would be through the starry sky.

Even if he escaped via the starry sky, it would probably still be dangerous as he might not be able to hide from the Martial Honourables.

In actual fact, Su Mo’s best bet now would be to hide on Star Guzhou. Hiding himself wouldn’t be too bad. It was his safest plan.

However, as news of him spread through the Sorcerer Tribe, they would definitely send a large group of experts over to Star Guzhou, maybe even the Grand Priest would come.

Although Star Guzhou was big, it would be very hard for him to escape the Grand Priest’s grasp.

Although he was ranked first in the True Sage Board and his talents were indeed high, Shen Wu Academy would probably still not protect him.

Su Mo flew all the way to Shen Wu Academy without stopping. A few days later, he neared the academy as the large fallen meteor came into sight.

He immediately decreased his speed and carefully checked his surroundings. However, he did not find anything amiss. No Wu Ren Wang, and no Sorcerer Tribe men.

Perhaps they had hidden themselves and did not show themselves in broad daylight.

Su Mo sighed but he still did not show himself and continued to activate the ‘Invisible Fighting Soul’ in order to enter the academy discreetly.

Once he had entered the academy, he immediately returned to his cave residence at Huo Yuan peak.

Everything was peaceful and there appeared to be nothing out of the ordinary. Su Mo showed himself and walked towards the entrance of the cave. To his surprise, he found that both Nie Qian and Han Ying were not around and a thick layer of dust had gathered in one spot.

“Weird!”

Su Mo frowned slightly. Before he had left, he had instructed the two of them not to leave Huo Yuan Peak in case the Taishi Family decided to take revenge on him.

Yet the two of them had left Huo Yuan Peak. Where did they go?

Heaving a sigh, Su Mo sat down cross-legged in the cave and he bent his head down to think carefully about his subsequent plans. He did not have the heart to cultivate or train at all.

The Sorcerer Tribe was very strong. Although it was only the Heavenly Underworld branch, it was still incredible and he did not have the abilities necessary to confront the tribe currently.

He needed someone to support him, and Grandmaster Huo Yuan was his best candidate.

However, not only was he unsure as to whether the Grandmaster would be able to confront the Sorcerer Tribe, whether he was even willing to confront the Sorcerer Tribe was another matter.

Shoosh!

Right as Su Mo was thinking deeply, a white figure appeared at his cave entrance. It was Instructor Muli.

“Grandmaster wants you to see him!” Mu Li stared at Su Mo and casually instructed him.

“Mmph!” Su Mo nodded his head and raised himself. He was just planning to go see Grandmaster Huo Yuan and did not expect that the Grandmaster would invite him over!

However, he felt that Instructor Mu Li was staring strangely at him, as though he were a monster.

“Instructor Mu Li, do you regularly come to Huo Yuan Peak?” Su Mo asked, beaming. He wanted to talk to her and find out the reason why Grandmaster Huo Yuan was finding him.

“Lets go!”

Yet, she did not seem to be in the mood for a chat as she immediately turned and flew into the air.

Su Mo was at a loss for words. Then, he shook his head and left the cave to fly towards the top of Huo Yuan Peak where Grandmaster Huo Yuan lived.

The grand palace gates slowly opened but Instructor Mu Li wasn’t there, only Grandmaster Huo Yuan appeared before him. His eyes were closed as he sat calmly on the grand seat of the hall, as though he were an old elder.

Su Mo took a deep breath before he strode into the Palace and stood before Grandmaster Huo Yuan.

“Greetings to the Grandmaster!” Su Mo bowed towards the Grandmaster.

Grandmaster Huo Yuan slowly opened his eyes when he heard Su Mo. With a warm gaze, he stared down at the young man.

“Su Mo, I heard that a True Sage Board had appeared, and you are ranked first on it?” Grandmaster Huo Yuan asked softly. His face was calm and he appeared to be a kind old man.

“Mmm…!”

Su Mo was slightly surprised before he nodding his head awkwardly, “this… yes!”

He realised that now that the auction at Glory City had ended, the news of him being the first on the True Sage Board would have probably spread all over Star Guzhou.

Furthermore, it shouldn’t be long until the entire Ancientspirit Galaxy would know.

“I also heard that you and the Sorcerer Tribe have some animosity between each other. One of their geniuses even wants to kill you?” Grandmaster Huo Yuan asked.

“Mmph!”

Su Mo nodded his head and after a moment of silence, he said, “we have a huge grudge against each other. All the Sorcerer Tribesmen of the Heavenly Underworld Star want to kill me!”

He did not hide this information and wanted to see if the Grandmaster would offer him any protection with this knowledge.

“Oh? What grudge?” Grandmaster Huo Yuan frowned and asked in a deep voice.

“I killed over a thousand young Sorcerer Tribe geniuses and also destroyed a few towns on Heavenly Underworld Star, killing over a hundred thousand Sorcerer Tribesmen!” Su Mo’s words were shocking.

Grandmaster did not speak after hearing his words. A deep and mysterious look was held in his eyes, one that Su Mo could not comprehend.

“Grandmaster, how can I resolve this matter?” Su Mo tried to probe further. Of course, he did not think he could resolve their grudge completely. Instead, he just wanted to escape his current predicament.

“Do you still think you can resolve this grudge?” Grandmaster Huo Yuan calmly countered.

“I don’t think that is very possible!” Su Mo shook his head. This was a bone-deep grudge, and he knew that it would be very hard to resolve.
