“Wu Shan, how dare you to hurt Xiao Yushu! Do you know that you have committed a crime?” Cui Yan reprimanded Su Mo immediately.
“Wu Shan, Brother Xiao Yushu is Reverend Jin Wu’s Pro-Disciple. You have gotten yourself into trouble!” Hu Mei’er said loudly. The opportunity had come for them to take revenge.
“Are you crazy?”
Su Mo glanced at Cui Yan and Hu Mei’er and said disdainfully, “Xiao Yushu lost and he has to leave Palmy Branch. He no longer belongs to Palmy Branch!”
Su Mo knew that Xiao Yushu would not leave Palmy Branch. However, since that was their agreement, there was no reason for him to be fearful.
Moreover, it was nothing new to be injured in a fight. As long as Su Mo did not kill Xiao Yushu, he would not get into serious trouble.
“You…!” When Cui Yan and Hu Mei’er heard what Su Mo had said, they were speechless. Although they knew that Xiao Yushu would not leave Palmy Branch, they could not publicly mention that he would not honor his word!
Su Mo ignored the two of them and stooped down before Xiao Yushu.
Xiao Yushu had regained consciousness and he could see clearly.
“My apologies for hurting you, but you have lost. May I know when you intend to leave Palmy Branch?” Su Mo asked flatly.
“Wu… Shan…!” Xiao Yushu gritted his teeth and called out his name as he looked viciously at Su Mo.
He hated Wu Shan!
He was full of hatred for him!
His Spiritual Soul had been severely injured and it was impossible for him to recover within a short period of time. Even if Reverend Jin Wu had treated him, it would take him two to three years to recover!
Xiao Yushu had not expected Wu Shan to possess such great mental strength and he was full of regret.
“I hope you will honor your word lest you become a laughing stock in Palmy City!” Su Mo smiled and flung his sleeve before he left.
He knew that Xiao Yushu would not leave Palmy Branch and he could not do anything about it. Thus, he did not dwell on it.
When the people in the Holy Pavilion saw Su Mo departing, they were full of awe for him. Wu Shan is indeed amazing!
After Su Mo left the Holy Pavilion, he headed back to Wu Mansion. Although he had not earned the number of Dawn Stones according to his target, the Dawn Stones that he had won would last him for some time.
“Brother Wu Shan…!”
Suddenly, Qin Zhi called out to Su Mo when he had caught up with him.
“Brother Wu Shan, I am impressed by your performance!” Qin Zhi said excitedly. Wu Shan had won beautifully in the three rounds.
“Hoho! They were too weak!” Su Mo smiled as he shook his head.
“Brother Wu Shan, Xiao Yushu enjoys a high status in Palmy Branch and he has many friends here. Since you have injured him, he will not let you off in the future!” Qin Zhi said with a grave look.
“I’ll be fine!” Su Mo replied nonchalantly. He knew that Xiao Yushu would still create trouble for him even if he had not injured him.
Su Mo was not concerned about whether Xiao Yushu would take revenge. After all, Xiao Yushu could not openly send someone to kill him.
Su Mo’s only concern was that Reverend Jin Wu would put the blame on him.
“In any case, do be careful!” Qin Zhi warned Su Mo.
“I will!” Su Mo nodded and chatted with Qin Zhi along the way. After that, Qin Zhi took Su Mo to a shop to trade the Dawn Stones that Su Mo had won for the Five Elements Dawn Stones.
Su Mo had also sold Hu Mei’er’s treasures and belongings for more than 2,000,000 Higher-grade Dawn Stones.
After that was done, Su Mo and Qin Zhi went back to their respective abodes.
After Su Mo had returned to Wu Mansion, he started to work on his cultivation. He could remain indoors for some time since he had a large number of Dawn Stones with him.
Su Mo was in the room, and he took out 200,000 Higher-grade Dawn Stones to devour them.
Given his current cultivation pace, he would be able to reach Rank 9 True God Realm in no time since he had sufficient Dawn Stones with him.
…
While Su Mo was cultivating, the entire Palmy Branch was talking about the Spiritual Fight between him and Xiao Yushu. News about it traveled at an amazing speed.
All of a sudden, Palmy Branch was in an uproar!
“How did Wu Shan manage to possess such great mental strength when he is only at Rank 8 Advanced True God Realm?”
“I am curious about his actual combat strength!”
“Xiao Yushu was badly beaten! I’ve heard that he has been carried back to Jin Wu Mansion!”
“I’ve heard that the fight between the two of them lasted only for two breaths!”
“Xiao Yushu did not keep his promise. This is such a disgrace!”
“…”
The people were talking about the fight in every corner of Palmy City. Discussions were heard in the courtyards, palaces, shops, and the streets.
The people were curious about Wu Shan’s great mental strength. They wanted to know how talented Wu Shan was and the strength of his cultivation level.
Most of them reckoned that Wu Shan’s strength was mighty.
Only a small number of people felt that Su Mo’s cultivation strength was reasonably powerful, although it would not be weak.
After all, most of the martial artists who possessed great mental strength had great talent.
After the Spiritual Fight, Wu Shan’s name became well-known in Palmy Branch and everyone had heard about him.
Jin Wu Mansion.
Xiao Yushu was kneeling before Reverend Jin Wu at the secret chamber in his palace.
“Teacher, I have brought shame to you. Please punish me!” Xiao Yushu said, feeling uneasy. His face looked pale, and he had been treating his injuries when his teacher barged in.
Xiao Yushu dared not ask Reverend Jin Wu to avenge him as that would not happen. His Teacher was fair and righteous and he would not help him deal with Wu Shan simply because he had lost the Spiritual Fight.
“Yushu, I’ve heard that you are the one who asked Wu Shan to compete with you and you suggested that the loser has to leave Palmy Branch!” Reverend Jin Wu said as he looked at Xiao Yushu.
He looked disappointed!
“Yes. I didn’t expect Wu Shan to possess such great mental strength!” Xiao Yushu nodded. He had to admit it as that was a known fact.
“You are silly! Stupid!” Reverend Jin Wu reprimanded him. Xiao Yushu had been silly to come up with such a suggestion. He had not treated his status as a disciple of Palmy Branch and Pro-Disciple seriously.
“Teacher, I am sorry! I know that I am in the wrong!” Xiao Yushu said sincerely as he pressed his head to the floor. However, his eyes were full of rage.
He had been severely injured, but instead of helping him, Reverend Jin Wu was reprimanding him.
“As your teacher, I will definitely help to treat your injuries!”
Reverend Jin Wu sighed and said, “However, after you have recovered, you will no longer be my Pro-Disciple!”
“What?”
When Xiao Yushu head what Reverend Jin Wu had said, he lifted his head with his eyes widened. He looked at Reverend Jin Wu with disbelief and said, “Teacher, are… are you driving me out?”
Xiao Yushu could not believe his ears! Reverend Jin Wu was callous. He was driving him out because he had lost the Spiritual Fight!
“However, you can continue to stay in Palmy City and remain as a disciple of Palmy Branch!” Reverend Jin Wu said, looking indifferent. Having said that, he turned around and left without saying another word.
Reverend Jin Wu did not drive Xiao Yushu out because Xiao Yushu had been defeated or he was injured. Xiao Yushu should not have used the discipleship as the bet.
If he had won the fight, things would not have been that bad. However, he had been defeated.
On top of that, he had not kept his promise even though he had been defeated. He had ruined his reputation and if Reverend Jin Wu were to continue to keep him as his Pro-Disciple, he would be mocked by the disciples of Palmy Branch.
Thus, he had to drive Xiao Yushu out.
However, he would treat Xiao Yushu’s injuries before that as he was Xiao Yushu’s Teacher. He would give Xiao Yushu some perks before he ended their relationship.
If Xiao Yushu was unwilling to carry out his promise, he could continue to stay in Palmy Branch and remain as a disciple of Palmy Branch.
When Xiao Yushu saw that Reverend Jin Wu had left, his face turned paler. He fell to the ground and looked dispirited.
“Wu Shan… Wu Shan, I will not let you off!”
After some time, Xiao Yushu howled. His eyes were like a those of a wild beast that was ready to devour its enemy, and he seemed to have lost his mind.
This time around, he had fallen from the heavens to hell.
After Xiao Yushu had lost his status as Reverend Jin Wu’s Pro-Disciple, his position in Palmy City took a dive.
He had no desire to leave Palmy Branch. In the future, he would become a laughing stock if he were to continue to stay in Palmy City.
Wu Shan was the cause of it.
Xiao Yushu had to take revenge.
He had to make Wu Shan pay for the humiliation that he had suffered!
