“Kill all of them without exception!” Su Mo’s voice was cold and emotionless. It sent a chill up the spines of Yun Shan, Yao Meng, and their subordinates.
“Su Mo, don’t do it. We were coerced into doing this!” Yun Shan quickly explained himself.
The high and mighty Master of the Sky Rapier Sect could only beg for Su Mo’s mercy.
He was not lying. Without pressure from Cold-blood Hall, he never would have attacked the imperial palace.
“That’s right! Su Mo, Cold-blood Hall is powerful enough to destroy anyone who dares to go against them. We were forced to do this!”
“We didn’t have a choice!”
“Su Mo, please forgive us!”
“…”
The martial artists from Sky Rapier Sect and Sky Yuan Sect begged Su Mo for mercy. His strength was terrifying. He had already slaughtered Elder Xue Yu at Lv 3 Enlightenment Realm, they didn’t stand a chance!
Su Mo glanced at them, his face completely voided of expression.
Pardon them?
How could he do that?
If he had not made it back in time, everyone from the Sus and Firmament Sect would have been massacred!
“Su Mo, you must forgive them!” Qing Pingzi also defended Yun Shan. He had sympathy for the others, they were close friends and he understood their difficulties.
Su Mo’s brow creased intently after hearing Qing Pingzi’s words. He had not expected him to defend these people.
“Su Mo, you don’t understand! We had mercy on them!” Sect master of Sky Yuan Sect, Yao Meng, continued, “Most of us held back when we were attacking the defensive formation of the imperial palace, if we had not, the formation would not have lasted 15 minutes!”
Su Mo remained indifferent and silently considered his words. Even if they had been physically forced into the situation and had shown some mercy, the facts remained the same. They tried to kill the Sus and Firmament Sect.
He could never forgive them for their actions!
Su Mo channeled his Vital Spirit into the palm of his hand, ready to strike.
Everyone from Sky Rapier Sect and Sky Yuan Sect trembled as they watched Su Mo. They were prepared to make an escape.
“Su Mo, don’t kill them.” Li Feng spoke calmly, “Isn’t it better if you keep them for your own use?”
“For my own use?”
Su Mo paused and sighed reluctantly. Although these people did not seem useful to him and were undeserving, perhaps he should spare their lives for now.
He could not ignore Qing Pingzi and Li Feng’s words.
However, he did not trust these people completely and he would’t let them off the hook too easily.
“Both of you, come here!” Su Mo yelled coldly at Yun Shan and Yao Meng.
Although they were trembling, Yun Shan and Yao Meng did not dare disobey Su Mo.
“Don’t even think of fighting!” Su Mo said flatly and pointed at their foreheads.
Two tiny finger radiance pierced through their foreheads and entered their skulls.
Yun Shan and Yao Meng both felt a tiny stream of sword Qi in their consciousness ocean.
The sword Qi contained Su Mo’s Mind. He could easily destroy their consciousness ocean and kill them if he desired.
Bitter smiles crept across their faces. They knew that their lives were now under Su Mo’s control and he could take them at any moment.
Su Mo was not going to let them off without teaching a lesson first. He needed to control them completely, this was the very least he could do to consider their actions.
“Give me all of your storage rings and storage pouches!” Su Mo commanded.
Everyone was stunned to hear Su Mo. As powerful as he was, he still coveted their wealth!
However, no one dared to disobey Su Mo. Everyone from Sky Yuan Sect and Sky Rapier Sect, including Yun Shan and Yao Meng, handed over their storage rings and storage pouches obediently.
Su Mo collected the hundreds of storage rings and storage pouches they surrendered.
“Ok, go!” Su Mo said with a wave of his hand. The tension within the group relieved as they began to leave, until they heard Su Mo’s voice again.
“When you return to your Sects collect your treasuries and bring them here!”
“Huh!”
Everyone was dumbfounded by his words. “He wanted even their treasuries?”
Without their treasuries, how could they cultivate in the future?
However unwilling they were, no one dared to reject Su Mo’s orders. They could only nod their heads and obey.
Yun Shan and Yao Meng did not dare to stay for a second longer. They followed immediately behind the rest of their Sects.
“Su Mo, let’s have a seat inside the palace!” Said the Emperor of Skymoon Country.
Su Mo nodded as he followed the Emperor of Skymoon Country into a side hall where everyone else had congregated.
The bystanders outside the palace came to their senses only after Su Mo had disappeared from their sight.
He’s so powerful!
He killed the experts of Cold-blood Hall so easily!
Is a new storm brewing in Hong Domain now that the peerless demon, Su Mo, has returned?
After the crowd left the entire Skymoon Country knew about Su Mo’s return.
In the hall, Su Mo sat across the Emperor of Skymoon Country, Luo Qianfan, and the others.
Apart from Su Hong, Qing Pingzi, Elder Wei, Li Feng, and a few others who were close to Su Mo, very few people were in the hall. Several experts of the imperial family had come, as well.
“What’s the situation in Hong Domain now?” Su Mo glanced at everyone and asked calmly.
“All 36 countries in Hong Domain are now under Cold-blood Hall’s complete control. Almost all the forces have surrendered to them, and the ones that didn’t surrender have already been wiped out!” The Emperor of Skymoon Country replied with a sigh.
Su Mo frowned and collected his thoughts before finally saying, “What about the six Overlords?”
The Overlords of Hong Domain Su Mo referred to were forces from the Great Hong Empire and Firecloud Mountain imperial families.
“The six Overlords suffered tremendous loss and evacuated from Hong Domain three months ago!”
“What’s the cultivation of the strongest expert of Cold-blood Hall?” Su Mo continued his inquiry. He wanted to destroy Cold-blood Hall immediately. There was no time to waste.
Li Feng replied. “Su Mo, I’ve heard that there are three experts of the True Darkness Realm in Cold-blood Hall. The six Overlords would not have been defeated so quickly if this were not true!”
“Three experts of the True Darkness Realm?” Su Mo nodded slowly. If there were only three of them, they must be at lower True Darkness Realm.
He was not afraid of average Lv 1 or 2 True Darkness Realm martial artists any longer!
Su Mo and his confidants discussed the difficult Hong Domain situation, at length. They began to formulate a plan.
The others asked question of Su Mo, as well. When they learned that Su Mo was at Lv 7 Enlightenment Realm they became agape and speechless.
Su Mo’s father, Su Hong, was even moved to tears by the information.
At Lv 7 Enlightenment Realm, Su Mo could be considered the strongest expert in the entire South of Yan River, not to mention all of Sky Moon Country!
After a long while, Su Mo stood up and said, “You should wait in the imperial palace for a few days. I’m heading out, but I’ll be back in five days at the most.”
Now that Elder Xue Yu and his companions were dead, Su Mo did not worry that Cold-blood Hall would send warriors out within such a short amount of time.
“Mo’er, where are you going?” Su Hong asked in a puzzled tone. Why is Su Mo leaving again after he had just come back?
“I’m going to wipe out Cold-blood Hall!” Su Mo replied flatly.
“What?” Everyone was stunned to hear him.
