Chapter 1554 - 584: Infinite Qiankun
Su Mo stood before them, smiling brightly.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master and the Xu Huai Valley leader exchanged a glance and quickly accepted the reality.
The Longmen Sixth Jing had sworn that this stone forest could trap Su Mo.
The result clearly proved to be an exaggeration.
The man he mentioned as the third brother, who would keep his promises, was obviously talking nonsense.
And now, Old Liu just up and left, showing no nostalgia, leaving the two of them to face this person named Su.
To think he expected that with just the two of them, they could kill Su Mo here.
That was absolutely impossible.
It was basically hoping to use their lives to hold Su Mo at bay temporarily.
There must still be schemes for this person within the Martial God Temple.
Otherwise, how could he flee for a moment and expect to escape forever?
This made the Dark Dragon Hall Master very unwilling.
Why should he end up in such a situation?
Don’t think he hasn’t been grinding his teeth in hatred for Su Mo before.
Wanting to eat his flesh, gnaw his bones, and swallow his tendons, this thought didn’t dare cross him at this moment.
When he saw Su Mo approach, he quickly raised his hand:
"Hold on!!"
Su Mo tilted his head and looked at him:
"Hall Master, is there anything else you want to say?"
The Dark Dragon Hall Master exhaled:
"Commander Su, since you hold the Dark Dragon Order, we are considered family.
"Why make things difficult for family, right?
"I know... my actions have not been tolerated by the Imperial Dao, marking me as a first-class traitor.
"But today I yield to you, Commander Su, even if you wish to kill me, you should detain me at the Beichuan Imperial Court Headquarters for the Taoist Master to judge my crimes!
"Acting unilaterally here is not permissible."
Su Mo raised an eyebrow slightly:
"Hall Master intends to bring the Imperial Dao to pressure me?"
"I wouldn’t dare."
The Dark Dragon Hall Master quickly said:
"Commander Su is a person extraordinary, and even the Imperial Dao might not have your respect.
"I admit I am no match for you, today I only wish for you to spare my life, Commander Su.
"From now on, I am willing to follow you as my master, to not oppose your will."
"Oh?"
Su Mo stroked his chin, seeming to contemplate:
"Do you seriously mean this?"
"If I lie, may I die a miserable death!!"
The Dark Dragon Hall Master immediately swore to the heavens.
Su Mo chuckled:
"Alright then, in that case, you first kill Xu Huai Valley."
"Ah..."
The Dark Dragon Hall Master was stunned upon hearing this.
Xu Huai Valley had been coldly observing the Dark Dragon Hall Master kneel and show submission, however, upon hearing this, he immediately frowned.
Only to see the Dark Dragon Hall Master signaling at him with his eyes.
Suppressing his fiery temper, he heard the Dark Dragon Hall Master speak coldly:
"Xu Huai Valley, as the Gui Xu Island Master, you are incompetent and foolish.
"Now that my master is here, I advise you to hand over the Infinite Qiankun and swear allegiance under him.
"Lend your frail life from now on, to serve my master.
"Otherwise, this day next year will be your death day!!"
Xu Huai Valley raised an eyebrow.
Give up the Infinite Qiankun?
Was the Dark Dragon Hall Master trying to trick him or was he really defecting?
Xu Huai Valley couldn’t quite grasp the Dark Dragon Hall Master’s intentions at the moment.
Turning back to look at Su Mo, he found the man watching them as if they were performing a monkey show.
Knowing he did not believe a word of what they said.
Faced with life and death, Xu Huai Valley exhaled, shook his hand, and a golden ring fell into his palm, lifting it with both hands high:
"Chief Su, today Xu Huai Valley is willing to hand over the Infinite Qiankun Ring to you.
"I only ask that you spare my life, allow me to live to serve you.
"From this day forth, I will follow you alone — I dare not defy your commands!!"
Su Mo did not reach to receive the Infinite Qiankun.
He merely smiled subtly and said:
"You also intend to align with me? If true, the Nanhai Alliance Dragon King Hall and Gui Xu Island will truly become one family."
"From here, the Nanhai will be unified, and my master will become the Nanhai Supreme!!"
Xu Huai Valley seemed caught up in the performance, showing a naturally excited expression while saying these words.
Kneeling deeply, he held the Infinite Qiankun Ring aloft with both hands in a gesture to offer it to Su Mo.
And just at this moment, his inner strength surged in his grasp, and with a buzz, the Infinite Qiankun suddenly vibrated, like a stream of golden light rushing straight at Su Mo.
The golden ring continued to tremble, the sound grating on one’s nerves, as it steadily pressed toward Su Mo, the surroundings began to crack and burst with noise.
Nearby strange rocks were shattered into pieces by the vibration.
Su Mo wasn’t surprised, bending his finger in mid-air.
Inner Strength landed on the golden ring, and immediately it buzzed intensely.
The golden ring stopped just two inches from Su Mo’s finger, vibrating ceaselessly from the provocation of his Inner Strength.
The sound flowed outward, its power thrice what it originally was.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master felt his blood surge at once.
Yet he took a deep breath, clenched his teeth, and leapt towards the wall behind.
Xu Huai Valley, seeing this, was enraged.
The Dark Dragon Hall Master’s so-called allegiance was merely a delaying tactic.
This fact was apparent to all three present.
Just by Su Mo’s expression, he obviously didn’t believe the Dark Dragon Hall Master.
Earlier it seemed like they had found a way to live.
But in reality, it was still a dead end.
This is why Xu Huai Valley struck when ’handing over’ the Infinite Qiankun.
This strike couldn’t fool Su Mo.
But Xu Huai Valley knew the Infinite Qiankun was always concealed, with specific effects unknown, Su Mo might not know them.
