Chapter 562 - A One-Man Show
Elder Wei suddenly looked at Su Mo and shouted, eyes red, “You son of bi*ch. You’re a bloodthirsty monster!”
Su Mo looked indifferent and sneered, saying, “Just because I’ve killed some people, am I a monster? Should I have stood still when they were trying to kill me?”
“You…” Elder Wei was temporarily speechless, but he then shouted angrily, “You crafty evil beast! You shall be sentenced to death for slaughtering your fellow disciples!”
Being cursed time and time again irritated Su Mo.
“I shall be sentenced to death? By who? You, old beast?” Su Mo asked in a cold voice.
“You’re asking to die!”
Being addressed as ‘old beast’ enraged Elder Wei. He stretched out his arm and swung at Su Mo with his palm.
As a Martial King Realm expert, Elder Wei cracked space with his palm, a move truly impressive and powerful.
Carrying the powerful force, the mighty palm print moved forward like a giant mountain. Even just a portion of its strength could kill an ordinary martial artist at True Darkness Realm.
However, An Nuan, standing in front of Su Mo, would not allow Elder Wei to kill Su Mo!
As the burgundy sword radiance reappeared, the sword Qi soared into the sky and instantly destroyed the huge palm print.
“An Nuan, Su Mo is already spellbound. Are you still going to protect him?” Elder Wei shouted in anger.
An Nuan’s face was cold, and she said in a flat voice, “He belongs to my Towering Sky Peak, so even if he’s become spellbound, you have no right to deal with him!”
“He’s killed so many of my Holy Sky Peak’s disciples, so how can I let it go?” Elder Wei cried.
“Killing people is simply killing them!” An Nuan’s voice was flat but aggressive.
“You …!” Elder Wei was going mad. The people from Towering Sky Peak were really arrogant and unreasonable.
After a while, Elder Wei gradually calmed himself.
Having predicted that An Nuan would block him, he had almost used his strongest blow, but when it was broken by An Nuan with one slash, he knew that he stood no chance of defeating her.
In light of this, he had to bear it no matter how angry he was.
“I’ll submit a report about what happened here to the sect’s Law Enforcement Hall. Su Mo, you’ll be punished!”
After a cold statement, Elder Wei turned to the remaining 16 disciples of Holy Sky Peak and said, “Why don’t you get out of here?”
The remaining disciples were still in shock.
Hearing the order, they immediately flew back to the top of the mountain.
Later, Elder Wei took a deep glance at Su Mo, waved his hand to carry the corpses of the five, and also returned to the top of the mountain.
Su Mo could not help but frown as Elder Wei took away Guan Xun and the other’s bodies. He had still wanted to profit from them! He had not expected that Elder Wei would take them away!
Seeing Elder Wei return to the mountaintop, An Nuan looked at Su Mo and nodded slightly before returning to the top of the mountain.
This, Su Mo believed, was an indication that he would be safe with her.
Su Mo sighed. He really needed to thank Second Senior Sister with a gift after this disturbance was over.
All of the nine peaks were silent. Everyone was still in shock.
After a while, someone cried, “The outer gates are invincible!”
This cry woke everyone up. In an instant, except for Towering Sky Peak, the other eight peaks were full of shouts and yells that could break the air.
“The outer gates are invincible!”
“The outer gates are invincible!”
“The outer gates are invincible!”
Many of the Outer Disciples who had lower cultivations were all shouting with admiration and respect.
This world belonged to the strong, and respecting the strong was an eternal truth. The splendid combat strength Su Mo had shown had won over 90% of the disciples.
Standing on the fighting ring and listening to the cries of countless disciples, Su Mo was also full of excitement.
This kind of feeling made him want to fight against someone for days at a time.
“Would anyone like to challenge me?” asked Su Mo, looking around at the peaks several peaks.
Su Mo’s words silenced the peaks immediately, and even the sound of a falling needle could be heard.
They were speechless. Who dares challenge you? Is that not a death wish?
A few moments later, there was still no one challenging him. Su Mo supposed that it was his frequent killing that scared them!
After thinking for a while, Su Mo added, “You can relax. I assure that it’ll be a peaceful fight and no one will get killed.”
As was expected, Su Mo’s promise stimulated many disciples, who were willing to fight against Su Mo, the invincible man in the outer gate. Even if they were doomed to failure, they would be proud of themselves if they could stand two moves against Su Mo!
Whoosh!
A white figure fluttered down from the mountaintop of Dark Sky Peak.
Su Mo was stunned when seeing that the newcomer was Hong Qingxuan.
“Brother Su Mo, how about I play with you?” A wide smile spread across Hong Qingxuan’s beautiful face.
Su Mo was speechless and said with a wry smile, “Qingxuan, do we need to fight each other?”
Hong Qingxuan chuckled and said, “Brother Su Mo, our cultivations are at the same level, so I’d like to know how big the gap between us is.”
Hong Qingxuan knew she would fail, but she still wanted to have a try.
Su Mo had no choice but to nod. He said, “Well then, here we go! You first!”
Hong Qingxuan nodded with a dignified expression.
The next moment, Hong Qingxuan pointed at Su Mo.
“Ancient Evergreen!”
As the teal finger radiance flashed, a large number of trees in the nine peaks dried out, and a huge amount of Wood Energy was extracted and poured into the teal finger radiance.
The teal finger radiance was rising and expanding rapidly.
In a flash, the teal finger radiance had turned into a huge finger that was dozens of meters long and heading for Su Mo.
Knowing that this powerful move would not hurt Su Mo, Hong Qingxuan put her all ino it.
Swish!
Coming to meet the finger radiance was an unparalleled four-colored sword Qi, which instantly cracked the teal huge finger.
As Su Mo controlled his strength well, the sword Qi also dissipated after breaking the teal finger radiance.
Next, Hong Qingxuan launched continuous finger radiance attacks.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Every finger radiance Hong Qingxuan released was destroyed by Su Mo. Su Mo took no offensive moves, but rather stuck to defense.
After dozens of moves, Hong Qingxuan stopped.
“Brother Su Mo, how can I know the gap under these circumstances?” Hong Qingxuan protested, pouting.
Su Mo shook his head with a wry smile. He did not dare attack, for an inadvertent attack might kill her.
“Qingxuan, I already know. We can play in private someday!” Su Mo smiled. He actually did know the gap between them.
Hong Qing Xuan was much weaker than Xiang Tianyang. Actually, she was comparable in strength to Fan Jing, whom he had killed.
“Alright then!” Hong Qingxuan reluctantly nodded, but when hearing they could play in private, she felt secretly delighted.
Hong Qingxuan then returned to the top of the mountain.
Whoosh!
The moment right after Hong Qingxuan had left, there came another challenger. He was a portly man.
“Su Mo, my name is Qian Ping from Bluesky Peak. How about we fight?” The plump man smiled. Hearing that Su Mo would not kill anyone, he came down to request a challenge.
Qian Ping had a purpose in his heart. So far, no one had been able to stand two moves against Su Mo. Even Xiang Tianyang had also failed in one move, but if he could do that, he would have a great reputation in the outer gate.
However, the fact was contrary to what he had expected.
As Su Mo struck one sword, Qian Ping was instantly thrown a dozen or so miles away and fell out of the fighting ring.
Su Mo would show mercy to no one but Hong Qingxuan.
Qian Ping looked pale and immediately returned to the top of the mountain.
Next, lines of people stepped onto the fighting ring one by one, but regardless of who they were, Su Mo only attacked once.
The challenger kept changing, and the only constant was the change itself.
On the eight peaks, many elders secretly shook their heads and sighed in their hearts. The Martial Arts Competition of the Nine Peaks had become Su Mo’s one-man show!
