However, Su Mo killed nine men before, and he just killed three more, so now there were only eight left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Die!” Su Mo?yelled, his body as swift as a flash. With a glint of his sword, two more bandits were slashed in the waist and collapsed to the ground, spilling their guts everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hurry! Surround and kill him! Hurry!” screamed the bandit leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his giant war saber and charged toward Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Su Mo did not directly block his attack. He used his swiftness to weave between the men, and with every flash of his sword, he struck down a bandit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Screw you!” roared the bandit leader angrily. No matter how hard he swung his war saber, he had never touched a hair on Su Mo’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Su Mo practiced the Lower Lv 3 body move,Shadow Steps, his dexterity had been greatly increased. Although he had only begun to cultivateShadow Steps, his movement was way beyond the bandit leader’s capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides their leader, the other bandits were all at Lv 3 or Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm, so very few stood a chance against Su Mo’s sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they blocked one strike, they could not block another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Sword Qi spreading everywhere and sword radiance shining, Su Mo killed one man with every step he took.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the bandit leader had become a commander without soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the men who tried to run were killed by a single strike before they could get away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve killed so many men of my Bloody Blade Stockade! I won’t let you get away with it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bandit leader issued this threat but turned around to run away. He could tell that he was at a disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way that he could kill his opponent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re going nowhere!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo blocked the bandit leader’s path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t push me! Even though I can’t kill you, you also can’t kill me!” The bandit leader yelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really? I’ve told you that you will all die today!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo sneered condescendingly, which immediately enraged the bandit leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must be looking for death! I’ll show you just how powerful I am.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bandit leader roared, and his Martial Soul rose up behind him, bathed in yellow light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Martial Soul was a three-meter-tall Fierce Bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After activating his Martial Soul, the bandit leader’s abilities at least multiplied. He drew out his shining war saber and swung it forcefully towards Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo did not dodge it and stood silently in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bandit leader was overjoyed to see this, and he channeled all his force into his swing to incapacitate Su Mo with one strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo smiled coldly. When the bandit leader’s war saber was about to come down, he sheathed his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This action instantly shocked the bandit leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this boy dumb?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he was even more excited. Now that his enemy had sheathed his weapon, this was his chance to kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the bandit leader’s war saber was about to reach Su Mo, a shining long sword appeared in Su Mo’s hand with a flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Spirit-slayer Sword, a Medium Lv 4 weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo grasped the Spirit-slayer Sword and swung it up to meet the war saber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang! Splash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the weapons met, the bandit leader’s war saber was shattered. The Spirit-slayer Sword did not lose any momentum and cut through the bandit leader’s neck like lightning, causing his head to fly up and spew blood everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo let out a sigh after killing all of the bandits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Spirit-slayer Sword, you didn’t let me down!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo looked at the longsword in his hands and smiled. His Medium Lv 4 weapon was really exceptional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weapons of different levels and grades varied greatly in quality, not to mention that the bandit leader’s weapon was a common Lv 1.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the two weapons were not even at the same level, it was not surprising that his sword could slice through the war saber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When faced with these degenerates, Su Mo was not stupid enough to fight fairly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After killing all the bandits, Su Mo looked towards the kidnapped women, who were all shell-shocked and unresponsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, all of the bandits have been killed! You’re all free!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo said, waking the women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, kind sir!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the women kneeled on the ground and bowed their heads to Su Mo in thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can all get up! It isn’t safe here. Go back to your village first!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo waved his hand and asked them to stand. Although their village had been destroyed, he could only ask them to go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, most of the bandits had war horses that the women could ride back to the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir, I’ll never forget your kind deed today. Could you tell me your name? I’ll bear it in mind forever.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young girl in green quietly said as she nervously walked up to Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the girl whom the scar-faced bandit had lusted after, and the one who was being taken as a gift to chief brigands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her skin was as white as snow, her beauty unparalleled, and her eyes as clear as a spring. Although she was wearing rags, she exuded an undeniable elegance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl had the appearance of a fallen angel, making her desirable but incorruptable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo had only just realized this outstanding beauty among the women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could such a small village produce such a gem?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging purely by appearance, this girl surpassed even Luo Huan, the leader of Purple Gold Pavilion. However, she seemed shyer than the charismatic Luo Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My name is Su Mo! Go back first, and I’ll come later and help you bury your relatives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo smiled and led a war horse over to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, sir.” The girl lightly nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After everyone had left, Su Mo stared at the pile of corpses with excitement glinting in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With all these bloodessence, breaking through my cultivation shouldn’t be a problem!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo immediately walked over, sat down cross-legged, and released his Devouring Martial Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The longer he waited, the more essence these bodies would lose. Moreover, their Martial Souls would disappear after a while, which would be a great loss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo used all his force to activate his Devouring Martial Spirit, which quickly sucked in all the bandits’ Martial Souls and Blood Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of these bandits’ Martial Souls were Rank 2 or 3 Human Class, so Su Mo’s Martial Soul was not affected after devouring them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the great amount of Blood Qi became a surge of pure energy after it was devoured and absorbed into Su Mo’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo suddenly experienced a spike in genuine Qi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, Su Mo’s cultivation broke through the bottleneck of Lv 3 and entered into Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blood Qi was so strong that Su Mo’s cultivation continued to rise after reaching Level Four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Middle Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peak Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, after Su Mo finished devouring everyone’s Blood Qi, his cultivation stopped at Peak Lv 4 Qi Cultivation Realm, which was only a step away from Lv 5.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not disappointed and was instead satisfied that he had increased his cultivation by one level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I keep killing and taking other people’s Blood Qi and Martial Souls like this, won’t my cultivation skyrocket?” Su Mo thought excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he shook his head.“If I continue this, even though my strength will improve quickly, I will also lose my humanity and become a bloodthirsty monster.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo had always been a moral person who had no sympathy for enemies and villains, but slaughtering the innocent was no different from those bandits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he took a deep breath, stood up, took all of the mummies’ belongings and left.\u003C\u002Fp>",1437,"2026-06-05T21:45:05.822Z",1,"novelbin.me","7de3b9068bf48098ff7691608eb047f2dfd2a30f1f04ec2bf68aeb65096bb5e5","warrior-s-promise-chapter-18","warrior-s-promise-chapter-16",3336,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarrior-s-promise-cover.jpg"]
