Chapter 2622: Keep Coming

In the hidden chamber, Xiao Yushu fell into endless resentment. He resented Su Mo as well as Reverend Jin Wu.


Of course, he could not take revenge on Reverend Jin Wu, but he could do so to Su Mo.


His eyes flashed with enmity as he thought about the many ways to get back at Su Mo.


Just then, there was the smell of a sweet fragrance. An elegant figure appeared at the entrance of room.


This was a rather curvy woman with a beautiful appearance, wearing a green dress.


“Senior Lin Ya!” Xiao Yushu exclaimed when he saw her. She was Reverend Jin Wu’s eldest disciple, Lin Ya.


“Junior Yushu, you’ve made a mistake. Please do not to it again. It’ll ruin you!” Lin Ya gave Xiao Yushu, whose face had paled, a stern warning.


She knew that the young man was not used to setbacks and could be quite persistent, so she had to remind him.


They might have had the same teacher, but they actually were not that close, just close enough.


“Senior, I admit that I was wrong, but this punishment is too much!” Xiao Yushu said in a low voice.


“Take it as a challenge. Our teacher will heal your injuries and, with his temperament, even if he kicks you out, he won’t leave you with nothing!” said Lin Ya.


“Hehe! How so?” Xiao Yushu disagreed. Without his ident.i.ty as Reverend Jin Wu’s disciple, both his status and future training would fall greatly.


“Don’t take revenge on Wu Shan, at least not yet!” Lin Ya reminded him.


“Why?” Xiao Yushu frowned. Wu Shan had done this to him, how could he not avenge himself?


“Now, Wushan’s name is everywhere. Many elders in the branch are paying close attention to him, and some intend to take him in as their disciple. Planning revenge now would be tantamount to suicide,” Lin Ya warned.


Crack~


Xiao Yushu unknowingly cracked his knuckles when he heard that. The anger in his heart grew stronger.


Wu Shan had used him as a stepping stone to gain all of this!


His demise had empowered Wu Shan.


“I get it!” Xiao Yushu nodded. He was angry, but he was not foolish. No longer Reverend Jin Wu’s disciple, he would indeed be a sitting duck if he looked for Wu Shan now.


But he would have his revenge someday!


“Do what you will!” Lin Ya sighed and left.



In the room, Su Mo’s shut his eyes as he condensed the Chaotic Energy Source.


He had devoured a lot of Five-Elements Dawn Stones. His training was gradually improving, but it could not be done so swiftly.


Knock! Knock! Knock!


At this time, he heard a dull knock coming from outside the courtyard.


“Could that be Ling Chang?” Su Mo opened his eyes. News of his battle with Xiao Yushu had spread. Ling Chang could have come to see him.


He took a quick scan with his divine thoughts and found out that the guest outside the courtyard was not Ling Chang, but rather a frail young man.


The man was not weak. In fact, he was at Ninth Grade, High Rank. But Su Mo did not know him.


Suspiciously, he stopped his training, exited the room, and went to open the gate.


“Wushan, I’m s.h.i.+ Yi!” the frail man grinned and greeted him when the gate was opened.


“What business do you have?” Su Mo returned the greeting and asked.


“My teacher, Elder Wu Meng, is quite impressed with your talent. He says, if you’re willing, that he shall accept you as his disciple!” the young man, s.h.i.+ Yi, relayed the message to Su Mo.


“Elder Wu Meng?” Su Mo said, surprised. He did not know the Elder, but he understood what was going on.


It seemed that he had fully demonstrated his talents when he had battled Xiao Yushu and won. This Elder had happened to notice him.


The Elder had no worries about Reverend Jin Wu. After all, Su Mo had injured Xiao Yushu.


“May I know how Elder Wu Meng’s training is going?” Su Mo asked. He would not study under just any teacher, but at the same time he was not quite familiar with the Elders in the Palmy Branch.


He only knew that Reverend Jin Wu was one of the two Chief Elders, and one of the top fighters with the best skills in the Palmy Branch.


“He’s at the Small Accomplishment Supreme Realm!” s.h.i.+ Yi said proudly.


“Small Accomplishment Supreme Realm!” Su Mo fell speechless. This level was too low. He might not even compete with Young Master Liu Yun. Why should he become the man’s apprentice!?


Admittedly, Su Mo needed backup support during his stay at the Palmy Branch in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance.


But he would only consider studying under a teacher at the Great Completion Supreme Realm.


“I appreciate Elder Wu Meng’s kind offer but….” Su Mo balled his fists together and declined the invitation.


“Wu Shan, are you actually rejecting it?” s.h.i.+ Yi remarked, frowning. This was not what he had expected.


All the disciples of the Palmy Branch had always dreamt of studying under the Elders. No one would have rejected the chance.


There were millions of members in the Palmy Branch, but only about three thousand Elders. Each Elder could accept up to three disciples. Some would not even want any.


That was why so many wanted to learn from the Elders. They could gain access to better resources and frequently receive the Elder’s guidance.


Today, s.h.i.+ Yi had come to see Su Mo under his teacher’s orders, but he had never expected a rejection.


“I’m really sorry about it!” Su Mo sincerely apologized. He could only do so much in regards to their kindness.


“Idiot!” s.h.i.+ Yi suddenly turned hostile and left with a sneer.


He would not waste his breath on the likes of Su Mo. He would return and report this to his teacher.


Su Mo frowned at the man’s reaction. He did nothing but shake his head helplessly.


Then, he shut the entrance, got back to his room, and continued his training.


But it was not long before there was another knock from outside the courtyard.


Su Mo did a quick scan again with his divine thoughts. It was another stranger, this time it was a woman in pink. Her training was not too high, only at Eighth Grade, Middle Rank.


Su Mo guessed this was another Elder’s disciple again, who had come here with the same purpose as s.h.i.+ Yi.


So he stopped training and went to open the gate.


“Brother Wu Shan, please to meet you! I’m Xiu Feng!” the woman in pink bowed very politely to Su Mo.


“What is it?” Su Mo asked.


“My teacher, Elder Chun Mu is quite impressed with your talent. He would like to accept you as his disciple!” the lady grinned.


“And how is Elder Chun Mu’s training?” Su Mo asked.


“My teacher advanced to the Supreme Realm three thousand years ago. He’s currently at the Beginning Supreme Realm!” she said.


Su Mo only became more speechless. The Ancient Demon Elder and the Ultimate Sword Honorable were at the same level too. He had absolutely no interest in studying under a teacher.


Admittedly, Su Mo’s training was only at Eighth Grade, High Rank. Those from the Supreme Realm were a hundred times more powerful than he was, but he had set his standards quite high.


To him, he was looking a teacher who could provide backing. Anyone who was not strong enough would mean nothing to him.


To him, the best teacher would be Reverend Jin Wu. Firstly, he was strong enough. Secondly, he was supported by the Lord of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance.


“I appreciate Elder Chun Mu’s interest in me, but my training is quite low, my talent too common. Please pardon me, for I cannot accept!” Su Mo declined the offer once again. Perhaps Elder Wu Meng or Elder Chun Mu also had the support of the alliance headquarters, but it seemed unlikely, and he did not bother to look for proof.


There seemed to be only thirty-six lords in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance. Within the Palmy Branch, there were three thousand Elders, most of whom were just regular Elders.


“This…!” the woman in pink uttered, somehow appalled that Su Mo would decline resolutely without a thought.


“I’m sorry, please relay the truth to Elder Chun Mu!” Su Mo spoke to her politely, his fists balled together.


“Alright,” the woman in pink sighed and said, “I hope you’ve thought things through. Don’t regret it!”


“I apologize!” Su Mo said again. That was all he could do in regards to their kind offer.


And then, the lady in pink left.


Su Mo watched her go. He wondered if Reverend Jin Wu was impressed with his talent.


But he had injured Xiao Yushu, which meant he had indirectly offended the Reverend. Even if the man saw potential in Su Mo, he might not take him as a student!


Su Mo sighed again as he sauntered back into his room.


Over the next few hours, Sumo’s ‘Wu Residence’ was constantly filled with a stream of guests who came from time to time.


Many Elders a.s.signed their disciples to ask Su Mo about his plans in seeking a mentor.


Over twenty people came looking for him within three short hours.


Among them, two Elders had personally come to see him, making him panic a little.


Nevertheless, Su Mo rejected all of them. The highest level of training among the Elders was only at Great Accomplishment Supreme Realm. None of them had attained Completion Supreme Realm.


Most remained polite even after he declined, but some of them showed scorn.


Su Mo did not care any more.


“Oh my gos.h.!.+”


Opposite Wu Residence, Qin Zhi stood by the second floor window of his loft, looking at the scene below and feeling immense envy.


His loft and Su Mo’s residence were separated only by a street, so he had long noticed the visitors at Su Mo’s doorstep.


His training and perception had also picked up their conversations. These people represented the Elders of the Palmy Branch and had come to take Su Mo as an apprentice.


Receiving one good offer after another was certainly something to be envious of.


More surprising was the fact that Su Mo had rejected all of them. Qin Zhi was baffled by this.


If any one of these Elders were to take Qin Zhi as a disciple, he would be ecstatic.
