In the Throne Room of the Qingyu Imperial Palace.
The Qingyu Emperor sat high on the dragon throne. On the left below sat Nation Master Qu, Princess Qing Ya, and a group of imperial family experts.
On the right below, there was only Su Mo.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Su Mo. They were all curious about this young man's identity!
Princess Qing Ya's beautiful eyes were full of splendor. She kept looking at Su Mo. She was very curious about Su Mo's cultivation. Why was he so powerful?
"Little friend, my name is Qing Gu. May I know your name?" On the dragon throne, the Qingyu Emperor smiled and slightly cupped his fists to Su Mo.
He did not ask Su Mo which force he came from. He was going to find out Su Mo's name first, so that it would be easier to investigate.
"A name is just a code!"
Su Mo did not answer him. He looked directly at Nation Master Qu and said, "I want to ask Nation Master Qu, how long have you been a Nation Master in the Qingyu Empire? Who are your former masters?"
Su Mo did not force him to answer, because he was probably not a member of the Netherworld Devil Sect. Moreover, if he was really a member of the Netherworld Devil Sect, he would not admit it even if he wanted to hide it.
Therefore, he casually asked about his situation to see if there was anything strange.
"Little friend, I have been a Nation Master in the Qingyu Empire for more than 40 years. As for my masters, I joined several sects in my early years, including the Tiehua Sect of the Sky Rock Island, the Golden Light Sect of the North Continent, and the Thousand Swords Sect of the Golden Ring Island!" Nation Master Qu Tan said slowly. He did not hide anything and told Su Mo all the forces he had joined.
Hearing this, Su Mo looked at the Qingyu Emperor and the other members of the imperial family. They all nodded to him.
Obviously, everyone agreed that Elder Qu Tan was telling the truth.
Su Mo thought for a while. What Elder Qu Tan said was reasonable and did not seem to be false.
Moreover, this kind of thing could be found out with a little inquiry. Elder Qu Tan should know better.
Was it really not true?
Everything was just a coincidence!
However, Su Mo always felt that something was wrong here, but he could not tell what was wrong.
"Nation Master Qu, do you know which forces in the Firmament World practice Corpse Skill?" Su Mo looked at Qu Tan with burning eyes.
"Cultivating the Corpse Art?" Qu Tan thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, in the entire Firmament World, except for the Corpse Hall of the Netherworld Devil Sect, there are very few people who practice Corpse Skill!"
"Where did you learn your Zombie Skill?" Su Mo asked again.
"It's in the North Sea, in an ancient relic, three days' journey from Qingyu Island!" Qu Tan said.
"Have you been in the Qingyu Empire for more than 40 years?"
"…"
"…"
Su Mo kept asking questions about Qu Tan.
Qu Tan answered all of Su Mo's questions one by one and told Su Mo about his own situation.
Although the people of the Qingyu imperial family did not know why Su Mo wanted to know about Qu Tan's situation, they did not ask.
After 15 minutes of questioning, Su Mo did not find anything strange.
"Everyone, farewell!"
Su Mo sighed and stood up, ready to leave the Qingyu Palace.
Since he could not get any information, he did not want to stay any longer.
"This … little friend, the palace has prepared a banquet. Why don't you stay for a while and let me do my duty as a host?" The Qingyu Emperor saw that Su Mo was about to leave and immediately asked him to stay.
"Yes! Little friend, the Qingyu imperial family has the best wine. It will not let you down! "
"You must have come from afar. Why don't you stay in the palace for two days and have a rest?"
"The imperial family will treat you as a guest of honor!"
Some of the other imperial family experts tried to persuade him to stay. Their thoughts were the same as the Qingyu Emperor's.
This man had killed Wang Sheng. If he left, there would be big trouble.
Su Mo glanced at the crowd. His heart was like a mirror. Naturally, he knew why these people wanted him to stay.
However, he could not stay in the palace. He did not fully believe in Qu Tan and had a plan in mind.
"Everyone, I have something important to do. If there is a chance in the future, I will come again!" Su Mo shook his head and then turned to walk out of the hall.
"Master, wait!"
At this moment, a delicate voice was heard. Princess Qing Ya walked quickly to Su Mo's side.
"What's the matter?" Su Mo turned to look at Qing Ya and asked doubtfully.
"Master, Wang Sheng is a proud disciple of the Icy Palace of the North Sea. He died in our Qingyu Imperial Palace. The Icy Palace of the North Sea will not let us go."
Qing Ya's pretty face was full of worry. She bit her red lips and continued, "Master, your strength is extraordinary. You must be from a superpower. Please find a way to help us get through this!"
As soon as Princess Qing Ya said this, the faces of the Qingyu Emperor, Qing Gu, and the imperial family experts suddenly changed.
They all wanted to calm Su Mo down. Even if they could not, as long as Su Mo was in the territory of Qingyu Island, when the people from the Icy Palace of the North Sea came, they only needed to put the blame on Su Mo.
Wang Sheng was killed by Su Mo, and it had nothing to do with them.
But now, Qing Ya had directly stated the seriousness of the matter. In this case, the unknown young man would escape as far as he could. How could he stay to bear the anger of the Icy Palace of the North Sea?
Qing Gu and the others were anxious, but they could not say anything, and they did not dare to stop Su Mo.
"This girl!" Qing Gu was angry and helpless. Now that things had come to this, there was nothing he could do.
"Every debt has its debtor. I killed Wang Sheng, so the Icy Palace of the North Sea won't do anything to you!" Su Mo said lightly. He did not have much contact with the Icy Palace of the North Sea. He had only seen the Empress of the North Sea, the Palace Master of the Icy Palace of the North Sea, and the Dark Ice Queen twice.
But presumably, the Icy Palace of the North Sea would not blame the Qingyu imperial family for Wang Sheng's death!
However, Princess Qing Ya's performance impressed Su Mo. It seemed that although this woman was a little unruly, she was very reasonable and knew to think about her clan.
Moreover, this woman did not try to calm him down like her father and the others in the imperial family, and then bear the anger of the Icy Palace of the North Sea.
Instead, she directly explained the situation and asked for his help.
This showed that this woman was open and aboveboard.
"You don't know the Icy Palace of the North Sea. As a superpower and the overlord of the North Sea, the majesty of the Icy Palace of the North Sea cannot be violated. Although our imperial family did not do anything, the Icy Palace of the North Sea will not let us go!"
Princess Qing Ya's arrogant and domineering attitude changed. She became quite calm, and her pretty face was full of deep worry.
After saying that, Qing Ya seemed to think of something. She blushed, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, "Young … Master, if you can help the Qingyu imperial family through this disaster, Qing Ya is willing to marry you!"
Qing Ya's voice was as low as a mosquito. The previous martial arts contest for a spouse was held to choose a husband for her.
She liked Su Mo very much. Although Su Mo seemed to have no interest in her, she would try her best to fight for him.
This was not only for herself, but also for the safety of the Qingyu imperial family.
Su Mo shook his head helplessly. He was not in the mood to marry again.
"You don't have to marry me. The Qingyu imperial family will be fine! Don't worry! "
With that, Su Mo's body flashed and he left the hall, disappearing without a trace.
