Chapter 429: To Central Continent!

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

Su Mo and Luo Qianfan chatted non-stop about a variety of topics as they drank.

Luo Qianfan only left when dawn approached.

Su Mo then sat quietly for an hour before he changed into a long teal robe. He walked out of the hall and shot up into the sky.

As he hovered in the air, he took a last look at the deserted Gale Island before he turned into a ray of light that soon disappeared into the clouds.

Three days after Su Mo’s departure, a big group of black-robed men arrived at Gale Island.

They were enraged when they realized that no one was here and proceeded to destroy the palaces and mountains. Gale Island was razed to the ground!

“Search! Search thoroughly! Search for Su Mo’s tracks!”

The angry roar shook the earth.

Su Mo flew as fast as lightning between the clouds. He was heading west, toward the center of the entire world— Central Continent.

Now that the Firmament Sect and the Sus had been cared for, Su Mo had nothing to worry about.

Su Hong had earlier informed him that the Sus had arrived without a hitch at the Imperial City and settled down.

Su Mo had to travel in a straight line toward the west since it was the shortest route to Central Continent. Although it was a long journey, Su Mo was not worried since he could train while travelling.

However, he had to pass through the Great Hong Empire.

The Great Hong Empire was the biggest country in Hong Domain and occupied almost half of the entire domain. Su Mo would have to pass by the Great Hong Empire regardless of his destination.

During his journey, Su Mo saw many terrifying acts of cruelty that were no different from what he had seen at Blackjade City.

In many cities, there were mountains of corpses and dried-up bodies scattered everywhere. Su Mo was sure that Cold-blood Hall had brought about this carnage.

“These people from Cold-blood Hall are sick-minded!”

Su Mo was discomfited. He knew that Cold-blood Hall had subjugated the entire Hong Domain so that its disciples could devour blood essence without opposition. This would enable them to increase their strength very quickly.

“Die!”

“Die!”

“Ah! Ah! Ah!”

As Su Mo entered Wuning Country, he heard the sky-trembling war cries issuing from a beautiful stretch of mountains.

Shocked but wary, Su Mo immediately flew toward the source of the war cries.

From afar, he saw a big group of buildings, which turned out to be a small Sect in Wuning Country.

At this moment, there were over 100 black-robed men committing a mindless massacre.

The attire of the black-robed men identified them as Cold-blood Hall disciples. Almost all of them were at Lv 8 or 9 True Spirit Realm, while their leader, a skinny man, was at a half step to the Enlightenment Realm.

In contrast, the Wuning sect had no martial artists in the Enlightenment Realm. They did not even have many experts at Lv 8 or 9 True Spirit Realm. They were outnumbered and powerless against the attacks by Cold-blood Hall’s experts.

Massacre! This was a blatant massacre!

A river of blood flowed from the Wuning sect disciples down the mountain path.

The Cold-blood Hall experts ignored the blood essence of the weaker disciples. They focused on the blood essence of the stronger disciples which would have a better effect.

SWOOSH!

Without hesitation, Su Mo sped up and dashed toward them.

Su Mo was not so kind-hearted that he wanted to rescue this small Sect. He was just overcome with hatred and anger toward Cold-blood Hall and charged forward without hesitation.

“Die!”

With a dazzling five-colored fist radiance, Su Mo’s punch blew a black-robed man of Lv 8 True Spirit Realm into pieces.

“Who are you? How dare you interfere with Cold-blood Hall’s business!”

“He’s tired of living!”

“Kill him!”

Five to six black-robed man yelled angrily and bolted toward Su Mo.

“All of you shall die!” With a cold expression, Su Mo unsheathed his sword and struck them with a terrifying five-colored sword Qi.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

All of them were killed immediately!

“What? He’s so powerful!”

The experts of Cold-blood Hall were shocked that this young man who was only at Lv 8 True Spirit Realm had managed to kill six martial artists of the same level with one casual move. “Could he be one of the geniuses on the List of Top 100 Talents?”

SWOOSH!

The skinny leader flew over rapidly.

“You are… Su Mo?”

The skinny black-robed man had been dazed at first. When he recognized Su Mo, his face became gleeful. He laughed, “Hahaha! I didn’t expect to be so lucky today!”

“Oh? How’s that so?” Su Mo asked disdainfully.

“Su Mo, you killed Mo Yue, the young master of Cold-blood Hall. I will be handsomely rewarded if I kill you today!”

The skinny man had a ruthless expression on his face.

The Cold-blood Hall in Hong Domain had learnt that Su Mo had killed Mo Yue. Angered, Red Blood Branch had already sent experts to Skymoon Country to kill Su Mo.

The skinny man had not expected that Su Mo would escape and run into him. He was certain that a huge reward awaited him if he could kill Su Mo!

“Are you still thinking of being rewarded when you’re about to die? Pathetic!”

Su Mo was indifferent. It did not surprise him that Cold-blood Hall was aware that he had killed Mo Yue. After all, so many people had witnessed him slaughtering the big group of geniuses from Cold-blood Hall.

Having made his comment, Su Mo attacked again.

Su Mo’s swift attack was accompanied by a flash of sword radiance. The black-robed man was beheaded before he could even scream!

“Die!”

“Devour!”

Su Mo proceeded to brutally slaughter the remaining black-robed men.

Incessant screams were heard as blood splattered in the sky.

Moments later, Su Mo left and continued his journey west.

He did not dare to remain in Hong Domain for too long. Since Cold-blood Hall already knew that he had killed Mo Yue, they probably knew that he was responsible for Elder Xue Tan’s death as well. They would definitely not let him off. Once they found his tracks, they would pursue him relentlessly.

As such, Su Mo hurried for the remainder of his journey. He did not pause and took extra care when he entered the Great Hong Empire. He did not even dare to expose too much of his aura while he was flying.

After 20 odd days, Su Mo cleared the expanse of land occupied by the Great Hong Empire and entered Cloud-reaching Country, which was another big country. After Cloud-reaching Country, he would only need to go through three small countries before he exited Hong Domain and entered Yuanwu Domain.

At this moment, Su Mo was flying above a deserted plain while being deep in thought.

His cultivation had more or less stabilised, so he wanted to find a place to devour Spiritual Stones and Herbs to improve his cultivation.

After all, he had to become stronger to ensure his safety.

Glancing around, he spotted a few small mountains dozen of kilometers ahead.

Just then, he felt a sudden and intense wave of Genuine Vitality from afar.

Although it was distant, the Genuine Vitality was strong, meaning that it definitely came from an expert of the Enlightenment Realm.

“Could it be a battle between martial artists of the Enlightenment Realm?”

Su Mo was confused. He paused briefly before carefully heading toward the source of the Genuine Vitality.

Soon, five figures who were engaged in a fierce battle appeared in Su Mo’s sight.

Of the five, one was a black-robed man with an intense aura. He was obviously from Cold-blood Hall. He was attacking the other four people ferociously.

Among the four others, there was a gorgeous lady.

“Isn’t that Hong Qingxuan?”

Su Mo squinted his eyes and instantly recognized the lady. She was the Great Hong Empire’s ninth princess, Hong Qingxuan.
