An Jian was as important as an Empty God for the Dark Shadow Tribe.
The Dark Shadow Tribe had been ranked sixteenth on the Ten Thousand Archean Tribes Board in the ancient times.
However, the Dark Shadow Tribe now no longer lived in the glory of the ancient times.
An Jian had been the most gifted talent in the Dark Shadow Tribe for a few thousand years. He would have the pressure of leading the Dark Shadow Tribe in the future.
The An Jian then had the strength of a regular Rank 1 Empty God. Once he was an Empty God, he would nearly have the strength of a Rank 2 Empty God.
Furthermore, An Jian was very young and had a lot of potential. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to reach the Rank 3 Empty God or Rank 4 Empty God Realm.
As such, An Jian was an important character for the Dark Shadow Tribe.
Elder An Yuan would even sacrifice himself for An Jian’s life.
“You won’t escape!”
With a loud roar, Elder An Yuan continuously pierced his spear forward for a sky full of Spear Radiance to shoot out.
These Spear Radiance were not strong individually but there was a great number of them and they formed a spear rain that surrounded Su Mo.
Su Mo could not dodge this large-scale attack and could only strike them.
Shoosh!
Boundless Sword Force appeared as a broad Chaotic Sword Qi tore through the sky with destructive strength towards the Spear Rain.
Boom!
In the next instant, the Chaotic Sword Qi struck the Spear Radiance with a deafening explosion.
Boom kaboom!
Chaotic Sword Qi tore apart the thousand Spear Radiance, both exploding apart into shockwaves that rolled out in all directions.
Su Mo’s body was as fast as a lightning as he sped off on the Natal Spiritual Sword.
“Damn it!”
Elder An Yuan cursed as aura shot out of his body and gushed out. Su Mo was already more than a thousand kilometers away from him.
Shoosh!
All of a sudden, Elder An Yuan’s body vanished. He was like wind that vanished into thin air.
“Hm?”
Su Mo had been taking notice of Elder An Yuan behind him and his eyebrows rose in surprise when Elder An Yuan disappeared.
However, he wasn’t too taken aback. The Dark Shadow Tribesmen had an Invisible Technique. As the Empty God of the tribe, Elder An Yuan would have a strong mastery of the Invisible Technique.
Su Mo allowed his Spiritual Senses to flow out but he found no trace of Elder An Yuan.
However, he was not too worried. With a mental thought, he allowed an aura to cover him. He had used the Invisible Fighting Soul.
Once the Invisible Fighting Soul was activated, Su Mo’s body also disappeared.
“Hm?”
Elder An Yuan jumped in shock as his face turned blank.
Su Mo had disappeared?
How could that be?
Invisibility was a secret technique of the Dark Shadow Tribe, why would Su Mo be able to use it?
As he allowed his Spiritual Senses to spread out, Elder An Yuan immediately scoffed. Su Mo’s Invisibility Technique could not fool him.
Elder An Yuan discovered an invisible figure moving through the space in front of him rapidly.
However, this figure was thin and soft. If he had not carefully looked, he would not have sensed Su Mo.
With that, Elder An Yuan immediately increased his speed and chased after the figure.
Yet, Elder An Yuan was unable to catch up to the figure.
Su Mo’s speed was no less than his.
“Damn it!”
Elder An Yuan fumed with rage. He couldn’t understand how a Middle Stage Martial Sage could be so strong. Why did he have such a high speed?
Even if he used a Natal Spiritual Sword, Su Mo couldn’t be so fast!
Although there were a few Natal Spiritual Swordsman who were King Sages, their speeds of travelling were also not so fast.
However, Su Mo as a Middle Stage Martial Sage could match up to his speed. This made Elder An Yuan shocked.
Nonetheless, Elder An Yuan could not give up the chase. He had to crush Su Mo and save An Jian.
“Sigh!”
As he flew, Su Mo sighed a long breath. He didn’t want to become enemies with the Dark Shadow Tribe nor the sky Tyrant Tribe, but he had no choice to save himself.
He could not find out where Elder An Yuan was but Su Mo was sure that the elder was still chasing after him.
With that, Su Mo cleared his mind and focused on travelling.
His speed was at the maximum level and he flew through the starry sky like an invisible ghost.
Even after a few hours, Su Mo maintained his speed of flying as he mind spun to think of ways to shake off the elder.
After his strength was suppressed, he had the strength of an average Rank 1 Empty God.
Yet, Elder An Yuan was evidently no ordinary Empty God. He was incredibly strong.
Su Mo may use his hidden cards and still find it difficult to defeat Elder An Yuan.
It was even harder to shake off Elder An Yuan and hence, the only way left was to trap him.
With that, Su Mo slowed down and stared into the empty space behind him.
The Devouring Fighting Soul was released and Su Mo grabbed it to take An Jian out.
“I know you are there, show yourself!”
Su Mo grabbed An Jian by his neck as Chaotic Energy circled his hand. This action threatened to kill An Jian at any moment.
“Su Mo, what are you trying to do?”
Silence filled the area and only An Jian’s roar of rage echoed the starry sky. He did not dare to make any movements.
His life was in the hands of a split-second decision by Su Mo.
If Su Mo squeezed his hands, An Jian’s mind and body would instantly be destroyed. His Fighting Soul would not be able to escape.
Su Mo ignored An Jian and he stared intently at the starry sky.
“Are you not going to come out? Since that is the case, don’t blame me!” Su Mo’s voice rang coldly through the air and suddenly, Chaotic Energy in his hand surged wildly, threatening to kill An Jian.
“Hold on!”
A loud shout erupted. The space a few dozen kilometers from Su Mo wavered slightly and Elder An Jian appeared.
“Su Mo, what are your conditions?” Elder An Jian was red with anger as his eyes shot daggers at Su Mo.
He had to show himself. If Su Mo really killed An Jian, the loss for the Dark Shadow Tribe would be huge.
“My condition is to stop following me!” Su Mo shouted.
“Let An Jian off and I will stop chasing you!” An Yuan yelled. He would not let Su Mo off if Su Mo did not allow An Jian to go.
“Su Mo, there is no animosity between you and me. Why are you doing this?”
An Jian shouted as he continued, “What do you want? Spiritual Crystals, Martial Skills, weapons. Anything you say, the tribe will give you!”
“Sorry but I don’t want any of that. I only want you!” Su Mo turned towards An Jian and smiled.
“What?” Hearing Su Mo’s words and looking at the smile on Su Mo’s face, An Jian’s eyes bulged wide open as his hair stood on end.
Could it be?
Could it be that Su Mo wanted him in that way?
An Jian had heard that some men were perverted in their romantic life. They didn’t like women and only liked men.
Could Su Mo be someone like that?
At this thought, An Jian felt his heart shudder and he felt faint.
