Chapter 1048: The Odd Man
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Welcomed by Li Fei’s cold words, the serious looking youth remained calm and even put on a gentle smile while taking the seat.
“You…” Li Fei rose with rage and shock for this man’s inconsiderateness!
“Fei’er, don’t be mad!”
Dugu Sheng waved his hand, attempting to calm Li Fei down.
Staring at the young man, Dugu Sheng asked with a sneer, “Young man, arrogance comes with a price. Have you any idea who we are?”
As far as Dugu Sheng’s concern went, this youth in the Lv 7 Martial King Realm was barely a nobody.
Actually worse than a nobody. He was a total fool who dared sit down without their concent.
“Arrogance? Am I arrogant?”
The serious looking young man shrugged his shoulders and turned to Li Fei with a grin. “I would save the word for this beautiful lady.”
Dugu Sheng, Li Fei, and Dugu Tianwang’s face turned black upon hearing his comment.
Especially Li Fei whose enchanting eyes were filled with coldness, giving off an intense killing desire.
The entire restaurant quieted down, with her killing desire echoing in the lobby.
“I happened to hear that you have recently received a Natal Spiritual Sword. I know how to remove the traces of its previous owner so you could gain full control of it!”
In front of her murderous look, the young man kept his face straight and locked his eyes on Dugu Sheng.
“What did you say?”
The trio was obviously stunned by Su Mo’s claim, staring at him with disbelief.
Ready to strike, Li Fei temporarily stopped making moves.
“Don’t you take me as a fool!”
Dugu Sheng sneered with disdain. “A Natal Spiritual Sword can have one and only one master. No one can inherit.”

“No one can inherit the Natal Spiritual Sword’s power. However, I can turn it into an ordinary Spiritual Sword!” The serious young man put on a confident smile.
“Emm? You are not kidding?” Dugu Sheng, eyes narrowed, was not fully convinced but the young man’s extreme confidence did cast a spell on him.
“Of course not. But it won’t be for free.”
The square face youth pointed out one finger and continued with a grin, “One hundred million Supreme Spiritual Stones!”
This serious looking young man was none other than Su Mo in disguise.
He was determined to take back his Natal Spiritual Sword along with a great fortune from Dugu Sheng.
Su Mo didn’t mind the trouble. He was willing to spend some time here as long as he could retrieve the Natal Spiritual Sword safely. After all he was still inside the Lone City. He could never be too careful.
“One hundred million Supreme Spiritual Stone? Is it becoming a robbery here?”
Dugu Sheng’s face darkened. “This is Dugu Sheng from the Dugu clan. Tell me what you know or you’ll be a dead man.”
Dugu Sheng laughed scornfully at this young man, who was trying to trick his Spiritual Stone on his land!
One hundred million Supreme Spiritual Stones… What a ridiculous offer! It was more than half of the Dugus’ annual revenue!
“What? You are Dugu Sheng?”
Su Mo changed his face as if in shock. He frowned while pondering. “I can’t do it myself but my master can.”
“Hmm… Where is your master?” Dugu Sheng sneered at the stunned Su Mo.
“My master is in the Cloud City down south,” replied Su Mo.
Located over ten thousand miles south to the Lone City, the Cloud City was a small town Su Mo had passed through on his way here.

He was leading Dugu Sheng out of the Lone City so he could get to work at will.
“Lead the way!”
Dugu Sheng rose, his voice cold. “If there is any trick in this deal, you will die a horrible death!”
Dugu Sheng wasn’t very concerned about this square face youth. He was too confident to believe that someone would attempt to harm him in the city of the Dugus.
Besides, he would have this highly skilled Dugu Tianwang by his side. No need to worry about anything at all.
The only thought that was bothering him was that this whole thing might be just a prank from this nonsense youth.
In that case, he would have one hundred ways to give him a miserable end.
“This… Doesn’t sound good! My master doesn’t like to be disturbed by outsiders.” Su Mo appeared to be hesitant.
“Cut the crap!”
A killing desire flashed in Dugu Sheng’s eyes. “Talk no more or you’ll become a vegetable!”
“Fine!” Su Mo crinkled his neck out of fear, getting up to leave.
The trio followed closely and left the restaurant after Su Mo.
The group of four headed straight out of the city.
“Brother Sheng, this man seems really odd to me.” Li Fei telepathized to Dugu Sheng.
“I second that. Cousin, I’m afraid this man has some hidden intention.” Dugu Tianwang sized up Su Mo without any expression.
“I know but I’d like to see what game he’s playing.” Dugu Sheng nodded slightly.
None of the trio was stupid. They could tell Su Mo was rather strange.
First of all, who else in the Lone City couldn’t recognize Dugu Sheng besides this square face youth?
Second, with the cultivation of the Lv 7 Martial King Realm, this young man seemed to confident, with no fear for these three masters.
Su Mo tried to look scared but it didn’t work well enough to full the trio.
“Brother Sheng, could this be a trap?” Li Fei looked very concerned.
“Cousin, I’ll call an elder just to be safe!” Dugu Tianwang chipped in.
“Alright”
Dugu Sheng nodded his consent after a moment of pondering. Bold from his superb skills, he decided to play safe by having an elder on site.
A beam of light flashed in Dugu Tianwang’s palm and a Messaging Charm sent the request.
Su Mo led the trio out of the Lone City. He then rose to the air and flew towards the Cloud City.
After glancing at the trio behind him, Su Mo laughed in his heart.
He sensed their little movements but didn’t care about their conversation at all.
Everything would be under his control once they got away enough from the Lone City.
They moved at an incredible speed and soon got very close to the Cloud City.
At a distance of just over one hundred miles from the Cloud City, Su Mo suddenly came to a stop and turned around to look at the trio behind him.
“Why did you stop?”
The trio also stopped. Dugu Sheng looked at Su Mo with a cold frown.
“Robbery!”
There was a faint smile on Su Mo’s face. “All three of you, hand over your storage rings.”
“What?” They were shocked and the shock was soon replaced by fear. The trio looked around at once.
However, they found no ambush. Actually there was no one but them at all. They felt puzzled and looked at Su Mo as if he was the biggest idiot.

Hacking Reality (A teenage Mad Scientist's story.)
Maya Williams was smart. For the first time however, she realized she might be a little too smart. At least if the fact that a gang had kidnapped her was any indication. But that didn’t matter, because she’d show them. She’d show them all!!! Just as soon as the voices in her head could agree on how to get out of this mess. --- Please Note: This is a version of a forum quest I run following a teenage Mad Scientest with heroic tendencies in the same city/setting as my other stories the Huntsman's Quest and Get Ink'd. Meaning that while a majority of the plot is made up by me, the major choices as well as what each chapter is about are usually made by the actual readers in forum votes. Additionally, given how this is essentially a story version of a Tabletop game there is also a background RPG system that while the characters aren't necessarily aware of, the readers can see these stats to know how each chosen 'Action' effects their character's development.
