Warrior's Promise

Swoosh! Swoosh!

In the vast sky above, two sword radiances darted across the sky and their speed was fast. In the twinkle of an eye, they had traveled a long distance.

Su Mo was at Taishi Lin’s heels. After they had left Guan Ning City, he continued to pursue Taishi Lin for one day and one night.

“Is this direction… not heading toward Shenwu Academy?”

Su Mo stood tall on the Natal Spiritual Sword and light glittered in his eyes. He realized that they were heading in the direction of Shenwu Academy.

They were now not far from Shenwu Academy and they would be there in another hour.

Are you thinking of asking Lord Taishi to save you? Su Mo thought it through and realized what Taishi Lin was trying to do.

He gave a derisive smile and felt that Taishi Lin was indeed smart. However, Lord Taishi might not have the ability to save him.

As Taishi Lin got nearer to Shenwu Academy, he started to heave a sigh of relief.

His face had turned ghastly pale and, since Su Mo had been at his heels, that had given him great pressure.

Soon, he would be at Shenwu Academy and he would not have any more worries.

He regretted not setting up a method to contact Lord Taishi before he went to kill Su Mo. If he had done so, he would have been able to send message to Lord Taishi to send reinforcements to him.

Soon! Soon! I just need to persevere for another hour!

Taishi Lin took a deep breath. He fully activated the Natal Spiritual Sword and headed forward.

One hour passed by quickly. Taishi Lin was soon near Shenwu Academy and he could see the fallen star at which Shenwu Academy was located.

Taishi Lin was elated and he flew at lightning-speed toward the gate of Shenwu Academy.

You don’t know what you are doing!

When Su Mo saw it, he sneered and headed toward the gate of Shenwu Academy.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The two of them flew toward Shenwu Academy, one after another.

When a few disciples who were guarding the gate of Shenwu Academy saw them, they went on alert. They had to prevent outsiders from barging into the Academy.

Taishi Lin was not a disciple of Shenwu Academy thus when he came to the gate, he stopped immediately.

“I am from Taishi Family!”

Taishi Lin said loudly. He triggered his thought and a piece of white jade which was covered by Dark Force hung before him.

The piece of jade was about the size of a palm and the word Taishi was engraved on it.

Swoosh!

At that moment, Su Mo rushed over and landed at the gate.

Taishi Lin immediately turned around and looked warily at Su Mo. He then told the few disciples, “Go and bring Lord Taishi out!”

When the disciples heard what Taishi Lin had said, they looked at one another and one of them went in to report the matter.

Taishi Family was one of the owners of Shenwu Academy, thus the disciples on guard acted quickly.

“Taishi Lin, no one can save you!” Su Mo held the long sword in his hand and walked toward Taishi Lin.

“Su Mo, stop where you are!”

When Taishi Lin saw Su Mo walking toward him, he shouted angrily, “Su Mo, this is Shenwu Academy. Are you thinking of destroying this place?”

Taishi Lin was wary of Su Mo and he prepared himself to take on Su Mo’s attack.

When Su Mo heard what Taishi had said, he frowned and looked at the gate of Shenwu Academy and the buildings within.

Indeed. If he wanted to kill Taishi Lin, he had to avoid causing great damage to Shenwu Academy.

In that case, he would have to go for close combat!

Swoosh!

Su Mo stamped his foot and he was before Taishi Lin in a flash. He waved his Stone Sword and aimed at Taishi Lin’s head.

The blow was heavy, like a mountain, and its power was mighty like the river. Although the power was mighty, it was well-contained within itself.

Taishi Lin immediately moved back when he saw the attack and, at the same time, he triggered his thoughts. More than 300 Spiritual Swords appeared in a flash and they moved toward Su Mo to stab him.

Su Mo ignored the Spiritual Swords and light shimmered on his body. He then slashed down with his Stone Sword.

Poof!

The Stone Sword cut across Taishi Lin’s body but it merely created a cut on his body and did not kill him.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

At the same time, several Spiritual Swords hit Su Mo and the sounds of metal clanging together resounded.

The Natal Spiritual Swords seemed to have hit metal and they bounced off. They were unable to break through Su Mo’s defense.

“How is this possible?” When Taishi Lin saw it, he widened his eyes. He saw vividly how Su Mo had fended off the attacks of the Spiritual Swords and he was utterly shocked.

That was not armor, but flesh and body. However, it was able to fend off the attacks of the Spiritual Swords.

When the disciples who were guarding the gate saw the scene, they were as shocked as if they had seen a spirit.

Su Mo looked indifferent. Since he did not manage to kill Taishi Lin with the blow, he dashed toward Taishi Lin again.

Taishi Lin was alarmed. He no longer dared to take Su Mo on. He quickly moved back and dashed into Shenwu Academy.

The few disciples did not stop Taishi Lin, as he was a disciple of Taishi Family. He was allowed to enter the Academy.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

After Taishi Lin had escaped into the Academy, he ran straight into the Inner Mansion as though he was familiar with the layout of the Academy.

Su Mo chased closely behind him. Taishi Lin’s strength was comparable to Su Mo’s thus it was not an easy task for Su Mo to kill him.

The two of them openly ran around the Academy and attracted the attention of many disciples.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Suddenly, a large group of people appeared in front of Taishi Lin and he flew straight toward them.

When Su Mo looked at the group, he started to frown. There were more than 300 people in the group and all of them were the disciples from Taishi Family Faction.

The one standing at the forefront was tall and he was in a long silver robe. He looked young and possessed the imposing aura of a leader.

Lord Taishi!

Su Mo stopped moving. Although he had not seen Lord Taishi before, he was certain that the person was Lord Taishi.

“Lord Taishi!”

When Taishi Lin saw Lord Taishi, he was elated. He quickly flew toward him and gathered with the disciples from Taishi Family Faction.

Lord Taishi’s face looked gloomy. When he saw the sorry state that Taishi Lin was in, his face looked even more terrible.

He had sent Taishi Lin and 10 disciples out to kill Su Mo. However, they had not only failed to kill Su Mo, Taishi Lin had gotten in such a sorry state. Needless to say, the other 10 disciples must have been killed.

“Lord Taishi, kill Su Mo quickly. He is crazy. You must kill him!” Taishi Lin said loudly as he stepped beside Lord Taishi. His eyes were filled with hatred.

He had been pursued by Su Mo for too long and he could no longer suppress his anger.

Lord Taishi ignored Taishi Lin. He squinted his eyes and fixed his gaze on Su Mo.

“You are too audacious. How dare you go after my man’s life and pursue him into the Academy!” Lord Taishi’s voice was bone-chilling.

When the disciples from Taishi Family Faction heard Lord Taishi’s bone-chilling voice, they knew that the Holy Son had been totally enraged!

“Is there a problem with the fact that I am after his life?”

Su Mo’s face looked indifferent and there was no sign of fear in him. He was filled with immense killing intent. He not only wanted to kill Taishi Lin, he wanted to kill Lord Taishi as well.
