Warrior's Promise

Right now, there were only Su Mo and Highest Elder in the sect hall of Gale Island. The others had been dismissed.

"Su Mo! Now that Cold-blood Hall is sweeping the Hong Domain, and the Red Blood Branch is also preparing to take control of the seven countries in South of Yan River, what should Gale Island do?"

Highest Elder sat in a rosewood chair, sighed with a gloomy face, and asked Su Mo.

Su Mo sat in front of Highest Elder and looked dignified. He said nothing and sunk into meditation.

"Highest Elder, how strong is the Red Blood Branch?" After a while, Su Mo asked in a deep voice.

"None of the seven countries in the South of Yan River can match their strength!"

Highest Elder shook his head and said, "As far as I know, the master of Red Blood Branch is a super expert at Lv 7 Enlightenment Realm, and they have at least a dozen Lv 5 and Lv 6 Enlightenment Realm experts!"

"What?" Su Mo's eyebrows knitted together. If this were true, they could easily destroy Gale Island.

"Correct!"

Highest Elder nodded and continued. "Red Blood Branch had already made thier move. If one doesn't surrender, they kill. Many powers have been destroyed recently. This attack on us was to make an example to Sky Rapier Sect and Sky Yuan Sect!"

"I think they will come for us again in half a month!"

Highest Elder had a face of anxiety. He felt helpless facing the Red Blood Branch and Cold-blood Hall, yet he refused to join them.

Once they submitted to Cold-blood Hall, Gale Island died in a way.

He disliked such a vicious superpower, plus the fact that Elder Xue Tan died on Gale Island had made it impossible for them to join Cold-blood Hall.

"Half a month!"

Su Mo fell utterly silent and heavy.

Cold-blood Hall and Red Blood Branch overpowered Gale Island. Although Su Mo was strong enough to run away himself, he had to consider the members of the entire island.

Gale Island could not wait for its doom.

"Highest Elder, we should evacuate Gale Island!"

After a long while, Su Mo eyed Highest Elder and said.

"Evacuate?" Highest Elder was shocked at the idea as he had never considered.

"Correct!" Su Mo nodded and said, "It's too dangerous to stay here. The best option we have is to evacuate Gale Island and leave Skymoon Country!"

This idea was a compromise. Judging by the current situation, they had to leave here if they refused Cold-blood Hall.

Compared to Cold-blood Hall, Gale Island was too weak .

Su Mo had already offended them, and they did not stand a chance of joining if they were to submit.

Not only had Su Mo killed the young master, Mo Yue, but also narrowly killed Xue Mo in the Firmament Divine Realm.

Xue Mo's father, the figure that appeared above Xue Mo's body when Su Mo was about to kill him, came to Su Mo's mind.

The man must have considerably overpowered Enlightenment Realm experts.

The truth was that Su Mo had offended Cold-blood Hall completely. Therefore, they would not forgive Gale Island, not to mention him.

The Red Blood Branch was just a branch of the superpower Cold-blood Hall in the East Continent, and they could easily find Su Mo.

Highest Elder knitted his eyebrows. He thought silently for a good while and then nodded heavily.

"Seems like we don't have much of a choice. Let's evacuate Gale Island then!"

They started to discuss the details of the evacuation and made sure that they would leave as soon as possible.

"Well, Su Mo, leave the rest to me!"

After another short while of thinking, Highest Elder said, "But, we've got one more thing to do before we evacuate."

"What is it?" Su Mo was wondering what the urgency was.

"Yuan Tu is dead, and Gale Island must have a leader. You shall be the island owner!" The elder looked at Su Mo with keen eyes.

Eh?

Su Mo was surprised about this.

While it was true that Gale Island needed a leader, Su Mo was not interested. He would leave for the Central Continent after having settled the Gale Island members, hence he had no time to manage Gale Island in the future.

"I think...Highest Elder, you should be the island owner!" Su Mo said.

The elder shook his head and said, "Su Mo, I'm not qualified at all. Among the entirety of the Gale Island members, only you had the ability and the status to be the island owner."

Hearing this, Su Mo smiled bitterly, shaking his head and said, "Elder, as I have told you before, I'll be heading the Central Continent later. I can't stay here, not to mention managing it!"

Su Mo had to refuse this. If he were not going to the Central Continent, he would definitely be willing to be the island owner.

"Ha ha! Su Mo, to be an island owner doesn't mean to manage the island!"

The elder said, "Be the island owner and go to the Central Continent. Nobody will stop you. As for managing the island, leave it to the elders' group!"

"Er...!"

Su Mo hesitated. Obviously, Highest Elder's was imposing the title on him!

Whether on the island or not, whether managing the island or not, he had to be the island owner.

Highest Elder had a beaming face. No matter what, he would make Su Mo the island owner.

Su Mo's talent was way too horrifying, and he was an unrivaled talent hardly seen in 10,000 years. Su Mo's future achievements were beyond Highest Elders imagination. Therefore, he had to bound Su Mo with Gale Island together.

He would not let such a genius go away easily!

After much persuasion from the elder, Su Mo finally agreed to be the island owner.

"Ha ha ha! Good! Su Mo, I hope that you will bring prosperity to Gale Island!"

Highest Elder laughed and said, "The evacuation is at hand, and we can't provide a grand ceremony for you. How about this, we'll hold a simple succeeding ceremony, and then evacuate Gale Island!"

"Okay!" Su Mo nodded.

After a long while, Su Mo walked out of the hall, rose into the sky, and headed toward Sunnywood City.
