Chapter 623 - Payback
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Sikong Yan felt incredibly frustrated. Even as a Lv 7 True Darkness Realm martial artist, ranked in the top 50 on the List of Top 1,000 Talents and with a combat strength comparable to a martial artist at Half Step to Martial King, he was unable to handle an insignificant Su Mo.
Without a channel to vent his frustration, he felt like he was going to explode!
“Sikong Yan, would you like to visit Celestialspirit Sect?” Su Mo turned around and shouted loudly when he saw that he was only a few thousand kilometers away.
Su Mo’s words undoubtedly pissed Sikong Yan off tremendously.
“You bastard!” Sikong Yan roared angrily and shot his fists at Su Mo in the air. Streams of fire fist radiance tore through the void and headed toward Su Mo.
However, since Sikong Yan was more than 100 kilometers away, his attacks dissipated before they could reach him.
His attacks were futile!
Sikong Yan stopped chasing Su Mo and his face turned pale. As much as he wanted to, he did not dare to enter Celestialspirit Sect.
“Haha!” Su Mo laughed out loud. He continued flying toward the Sect and soon disappeared from Sikong Yan’s sight.
“Su Mo, this isn’t over!” Sikong Yan said coldly. Reluctantly he had to suppress his anger after a while.
He recalled his flying beast and left.
Su Mo was approaching Celestialspirit Sect. As he stared at the nine peaks, he was lost in deep thought.
“Master should be back by now?”
If he had yet to return, he might need to leave the Sect again. If not, the people from Holy Sky Peak and Law Enforcement Hall might come after him again.
Su Mo kept his Spiritual Sword in hand as he flew toward Towering Sky Peak.
SWOOSH!
Shortly after, he landed in Towering Sky Peak’s main square.
Towering Sky Peak was quiet as if no one was around.
Su Mo strode to Tian Chen’s tower and knocked on the door softly.
CREAK!
After a while, the door opened and a pale-looking Tian Chen appeared before Su Mo.
“11th Junior Brother, you’re back?” Tian Chen’s eyes lit up when he saw Su Mo.
“Erm, I’ve just returned!” Su Mo nodded and asked, “Is Master back yet?”
“Master has been back for 10 days!” Tian Chen replied.
Su Mo let out a sigh of relief. Now that his Master was back, Holy Sky Peak and Law Enforcement Hall would not dare to come after him!
When Su Mo noticed that Tian Chen was pale and appeared weak, he asked suspiciously, “Tenth Senior Brother, what’s wrong? Are you injured?”
“Aye!” Tian Chen sighed, and said with resentment, “I was injured by Holy Sky Peak’s Inner Disciple!”
“What? Holy Sky Peak again?” Su Mo frowned. It seemed like there would never be peace between Holy Sky Peak and Towering Sky Peak.
“Who hurt you?” Su Mo asked calmly.
“It was Xuan Feng. He’s a genius on the List of Top 1,000 Talents!” Tian Chen said with a sigh.
“Xuan Feng?” Su Mo was startled. “How dare he become so arrogant after I defeated him in the Hong Domain?”
Su Mo’s killing desire surged. He would never let Xuan Feng off for chasing him all the way to the Hong Domain.
At this moment, Tian Chen asked with a bewildered look, “11th Junior Brother, is it true that you’ve made it to rank 977th on the List of Top 1,000 Talents?”
Tian Chen was clearly shocked to his core. Su Mo had become quite famous recently and everyone had been talking about his accomplishments.
Rumor had it that Su Mo had made the List of Top 1,000 Talents while at the Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm, the first person in history to do this. Countless people were amazed by his accomplishment.
However, there were also many who thought that the rumor was exaggerated and not true.
Tian Chen could no longer identify Su Mo’s current cultivation.
“Mmm hmm!” Su Mo nodded without any denial.
Tian Chen gasped when Su Mo verified the information.
Su Mo’s rate of improvement could no longer be described as fast, it was well beyond horrifying.
When he first arrived at Towering Sky Peak, Su Mo’s cultivation had been lower than Tian Chen’s. But now, Su Mo had made the List of Top 1,000 Talents while he was at Lv 4 Enlightenment Realm.
Although they were both peerless geniuses, the gap between them was enormous.
Tian Chen pondered for a moment before asking, “Well… 11th Junior Brother, you promised to help me with my cultivation last time, and even told me to prepare the Spiritual Stones. I’m ready!”
Su Mo was startled, but quickly remembered that he had promised to help Tian Chen with his cultivation before the Martial Arts Competition of the Nine Peaks.
If Tian Chen had not reminded him, he would have forgotten about it!
“How many Spiritual Stones do you have?” Su Mo asked.
“Two billion Medium Spiritual Stones!” Tian Chen replied, putting out two fingers. He had put all his efforts into collecting Spiritual Stones recently so that Su Mo could help him to improve his cultivation.
Su Mo’s trip back to the Hong Domain had caused him to wait long enough!
“That’s a lot!” Su Mo was speechless. “He has so many Spiritual Stones. How many levels does he intend to increase?”
No matter how stable his cultivation was, it was not advisable for anyone to increase more than two levels at a time.
Su Mo pondered for a while before continuing. “You should heal your injuries for the next few days. I’ll help you to improve your cultivation after you’ve recovered.”
“Sure. Thank you, 11th Junior Brother!” Tian Chen was delighted. He quickly cupped his fists at Su Mo.
He was reassured by Su Mo’s words. He could not help but imagine his cultivation soaring just like Su Mo’s.
“By the way, Tenth Senior Brother, is Xuan Feng still in the Sect?” Su Mo asked. He wanted to kill Xuan Feng now.
This kind of enemy should not be spared!
“He should be. He hurt me yesterday,” Tian Chen replied.
“Ok, then it’s payback time now.” Su Mo laughed and flew toward Holy Sky Peak directly.
Now that his Master, Huangfu Qing, had returned, Su Mo was no longer concerned about the consequences. Since Xuan Feng wanted to kill him, he would kill Xuan Feng first!
“Payback?” Tian Chen’s eyes lit up, and he quickly followed suit. He too was fearless, and if he had been strong enough he would have already gone after him himself.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Su Mo and Tian Chen soon arrived above Holy Sky Peak.
At the top of Holy Sky Peak, countless disciples began to complain when they saw Su Mo swagger up to Holy Sky Peak so fearlessly.
“How dare Su Mo come to Holy Sky Peak again!”
“The Law Enforcement Hall wants to arrest him for killing so many of our disciples! How dare he show up here!”
“Is he here to cause trouble?”
“Su Mo made the List of Top 1,000 Talents, he is not the same anymore!”
Standing tall in the air, Su Mo could not be bothered with all these disciples. He glanced around Holy Sky Peak, before yelling thunderously, “Xuan Feng, come out here and meet your death!”
His voice traveled in all directions like sound waves and shaking heaven.
His thunderous roar alarmed almost the entire Celestialspirit Sect. Several people looked toward him as he stood tall in the air.
