“The nineteenth elder of the Xuanyin Sect?
Although Su Mo had no idea what the significance of the title was, he could still be certain that the other man was unlikely to be a late Primal Core adept.
After all, the one who had previously been killed by his master, who belonged to the Divine Light Sect, Liu Xuanyu, had also been a mid Primal Core adept. Although the Xuanyin Sect was as equally famous as the Divine Light Sect, in truth, they were still inferior to the Divine Light Sect.
The seventeen elders of the Divine Light Sect were all only mid Primal Core adepts. Of the Xuanyin Sect’s nineteen elders, the majority were also just mid Primal Core adepts.
“A mid Primal Core adept?”
Su Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a pallid gleam flashed across his eyes. Immediately, he skipped a step and flew toward where the voice was coming from at full speed.
In the blink of an eye, Su Mo arrived at of the Valley of the Medicine Masters, hovering over the Valley and stood face to face with the old man in black waiting there.
“So it was a mid Primal Core adept after all.”
Before he approached the old man, Su Mo could tell just by looking at the milky white inner Yuan twisting around him, that the man was only able to condense the essence of a mid Primal Core adept.
“What?”
However, as he approached the old man, he could clearly make out see the old man’s features, and Su Mo couldn’t help but stare blankly.
If it were not for him being a hundred percent certain that the Xuanyin Sect’s member, Chi Ping, had died by his hand, he would have really thought that the Chi Ping from that day still lived and had returned to settle the score after breaking into the mid Primal Core stage.
This was because, on first look, the old man in front of his eyes was identical to the Xuanyin Sect’s Chi Ping, who he had killed with his own hands.
Of course, looking at the other man in detail a moment, Su Mo could make out some small differences between him and Chi Ping.
For example, the other man was much more composed than Chi Ping.
“Who are you?”
As Su Mo had leapt and approached, the Xuanyin Sect’s nineteenth elder, Chi An, could tell from the white inner Yuan wrapping around him, that the other man was also a mid Primal Core adept like himself. It shocked him to his core that in such a small, remote place, there existed a Primal Core adept, and at the same time, a fearfully regretful look emerged in his eyes.
“Haven’t you come in search of me? You even know my name, and now you’re asking who I am?
Su Mo raised an eyebrow and looked derisively at Chi An.
Before Su Mo had hardly finished speaking, Chi An’s eyes widened, and he said automatically, “You… you are the Head of the Valley of Medicine Masters, Su Mo?!”
“That’s my name, I wouldn’t hide it come what may,” Su Mo said with the same indifferently cool tone as before.
After getting Su Mo’s confirmation, Chi An could not control his urge to secretly curse that female disciple of the Xuanyin Sect’s chief Zhong Ya. Hadn’t she said that this Valley Head was only a late Connate stage adept?
How could this man be mistaken for a Connate stage adept; it was clear he was a Primal Core adept!
Furthermore, this was a mid Primal Core adept matching his own abilities.
“Valley Head Su.”
Seeing that the man opposite him was also a mid Primal Core adept, Chi An’s tone became much more genial. “I am the nineteenth elder of the Xuanyin Sect, Chi An, I have an elder twin brother named ‘Chi Ping…’ One year ago, he must have come to your Valley of the Medicine Masters, did you happen to see him?”
As Chi An saw it, his elder twin brother, Chi Ping, being a lover of unorthodox methods, would never have dared to provoke this man after seeing that the Head of the Valley of Medicine Masters was a mid Primal Core adept.
“So that’s why you and that Chi Ping look alike; turns out you’re twins.” Su Mo suddenly realized what was going on. “However, that older twin brother of yours was still vastly inferior to you… he was only a Connate-level Primal Core adept.”
“You have seen my brother, Valley Head Su?”
Chi An’s eyes brightened.
At that moment, Chi An was just about to ask if Su Mo knew anything about his brother’s whereabouts, but Su Mo had already begun to speak first. “I’ve seen him. Hm, actually I’ve not only seen him, I actually killed him myself.”
Whoosh!
Su Mo said it as lightly and casually as the wind, as if the person he had killed had not been a Primal Core adept, but rather a peasant or a stray dog.
After Su Mo finished speaking, Chi An’s facial expression immediately underwent a drastic transformation. In the space of a split second, his eyes burst with the icy cold, murderous intent of battle. Still, for a short moment he had some restraint. “Sir, what reason did you have to kill my brother? He was a member of the Xuanyin Sect, even if he had done some wrong, it is up to the Xuanyin Sect to punish him. Outsiders have no right to kill him!”
“I didn’t just kill him… today, since you’ve delivered yourself up right to my doorstep, you also will not go back.”
A murderous intent flashed in Su Mo’s eyes, and his two hands instantly curled slightly.
The most conspicuous thing was the mittens he wore on both hands. All the fingers were all inlaid with sharp claws.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that they were the same as eagle claws.
Looking even closer, it was not difficult to see that on each eagle claw were countless, fine lines carved in. Like the pattern on top of the gloves, these were clearly defined, carved lines and appeared to be extremely particular.
“I will send you off to meet up with him right away.”
Su Mo grinned, a dazzling smile that would have been enough to drive tens of thousands of women crazy.
Even in his dreams, Chi An wouldn’t have expected this Valley Head to be this powerful. It was more than just being unable to reason things out with him, but as soon as he started to speak, he said he wanted to kill him, to end him to meet his elder twin brother.
Momentarily dazed, Chi An returned to his senses, and his eyes surged with flames of fury. Just like the fires that set a prairie ablaze, the situation had become hopeless and could not be controlled!
“Su Mo, you talk big!”
An angry look grew on Chi An’s face, and he shouted frigidly, “However, if you mean to kill me, you had better have the capacity to do it!”
As Chi An saw it, this Valley Head was just an unorthodox, mid Primal Core adept, so his actual power must definitely be inferior to his own as an adept coming from the Xuanyin Sect… even if Su Mo’s strength really was greater than his, as a mid Primal Core adept himself, Chi An was still completely sure he could escape unscathed.
He just had to make it back to the Xuanyin Sect, and then he could almost assuredly find others to help him return here and obliterate Su Mo, to obliterate the Valley of the Medicine Masters!
“If you can withstand one of my attacks, I’ll let you go,” Su Mo said coolly with a laugh, and his body glowed, his inner Yuan surging forth.
He formed a gigantic sword and brought it towards Chi An, sword screaming as he went, quick as a bolt of thunder.
“Ha!”
Chi An had been ready, and as Su Mo swung his sword to kill him, he started to move to get out of the way of Su Mo’s strike. “You talk big!”
“Sorry… just now I was just warming up, I am now ready to start fighting.”
Su Mo did not seem at all surprised that Chi An had been able to avoid his quick move. As he spoke, both arms bent slightly, and each of his gloved hands gradually became fists.
Except for the thumbs, the eight fingers of his hands fanned out and turned into a strong bow.
“You can be the first person to die in my home by the spirit weapon refined by and given to me by my master. In this way, you will have led something of a worthy life, Chi An.”
After he spoke, Su Mo’s two arms suddenly became straight, and both hands curved in creating a strong bow from his fingers. In an instant, he released it.
“A spirit weapon!”
As he heard Su Mo’s words, Chi An’s pupils instinctively dilated, his expression astonished.
Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh!
…
However, in the space of a second, the whistling sound of the sword passed by his ears, and it brought Chi An back to his senses.
He finally realized that eight swords had flown from above Su Mo’s two hands, and together with each sword was a single sharp claw. In total there were eight claws like small, finely wrought swords. After the swords, they instantly appeared right before his eyes.
“Huh!”
He wanted to escape again then, however there was no time. Hurriedly, Chi An’s face grew grave, and he waited to accumulate his inner Yuan. All of it erupted out, flowing into two swift moves, and he created an inner Yuan sword, and brought it down menacingly on the eight swords coming his way.

…
In an instant, while Chi An brandished a sword in each hand, there were more than ten hundred swords flying out, and no sooner had one fallen did another take its place. Trying to withstand the attacks from Su Mo’s eight swords was like taking on several people at once.
Furthermore, the eight swords were extraordinarily swift and fierce. It was clear this was not a power that came from a single level of difference.
“How is this possible?!”
If Chi An had not had any idea about the eight swords before, he could now see right before his eyes how easy it was for the swords to destroy all of his attacks. He was also finally and clearly aware that there was more than one level of difference between them.
The eight swords were truly terrifying, completely exceeding his imagination.
“Escape!”
Realizing his offense was completely thwarted by his opponent, Chi An did not have enough time to think about how a mid Primal Core adept could possibly put forth this kind of terrifying attack. He only had one thought then: how to escape from this place so as to avoid dying here.
The only thing was, could Chi An escape this time even if he wanted to?
“I’ve said it already… since you’ve come, there’s no way you can go back.”
Like electricity, Su Mo moved his body swiftly. In an instant, he stood where near Chi An had been before, and raising both hands, he made the eight claws among the eight swords come back to the fingertips of his gloves.
In the next moment, Su Mo made another move.
Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh!
…
This time, the swords the eight sharp claws turned into came together halfway and created a foot-long sword. Exceeding normal speed, they overtook Chi An, and while Chi An turned his body to try to block the attack with his hands, it pierced through Chi An’s brow.
The entire thing happened in the blink of an eye.
Chi An, the nineteenth elder of the Xuanyin Sect had been decimated!
“Hah!”
After Su Mo made the eight claws return to his gloves again, he simply removed the space ring from Chi An’s finger. Soon afterwards, there was a whistling sound, and a vast amount of inner Yuan caused Chi An’s corpse to turn into a bloody mist that filled the air. As it fell back down, it looked as though it had begun to rain blood.
“This mid-quality spirit weapon that Master gave to me really was useful after all.”
Su Mo looked at the gloves on his hands, and he broke into a dazzling smile.
These spirit weapon gloves were actually what Zhou Donghuang made from the sharp claws of the eagle, a kind of Primal Core demon, which accompanied the Divine Light Sect’s tenth elder, Lin Hantian. It had been his companion when Zhou Donghuang had killed him. Zhou Donghuang had combined it with several other ingredients to refine this. It was a mid-quality spirit weapon and it could increase inner Yuan threefold.
In the next moment, Su Mo looked toward the area he had made off-limits in the Valley of the Medicine Masters. It was like a haven of peace, a Land of Peach Blossoms within the small mountain valley, and he said to himself, “I also don’t know… how long master will shut himself off from the world this time.”
