In the attic.
Su Mo sat opposite Nie Qian and Han Ying.
"Brother Su, I'm sorry. We've implicated you!" Nie Qian apologized to Su Mo with a serious face.
Actually, he was the one who told Han Ying about Liao Yunjian.
This was not to harm Su Mo, but in the face of Taishi Xuan and You Tian Han's interrogation, they had no choice but to speak.
Of course, even if they did not admit it, it would be useless. Taishi Xuan had already determined that Liao Yunjian had been killed by Su Mo.
However, they did not say that Liao Yunjian was killed by Su Mo alone, but by the three of them working together.
They had originally wanted to share the responsibility with Su Mo, but they did not expect that this would instead become a weapon that Taishi Xuan and You Tian Han could use to threaten Su Mo.
"Brother Su, we did not know that Taishi Xuan would actually use this matter to threaten you!" Han Ying said with a worried expression.
"You don't have to blame yourselves. We'll cross that bridge when we get there. You don't have to worry!" Su Mo shook his head and said.
"Then, Brother Su, what are you going to do?" Nie Qian and Han Ying asked in unison. Their fates were in Su Mo's hands, so they naturally wanted to know what he was going to do!
Upon hearing this, Su Mo's face darkened. He did not know what to do at the moment, but it was impossible for Taishi Xuan to make him yield.
"Brother Nie, Miss Han, don't worry! I won't let anything happen to you! "
Su Mo said solemnly. If there was no other way, he would join another faction and bring Nie Qian and Su Mo with him. Then, it would not be so easy for Taishi Xuan to deal with him.
Nie Qian and Han Ying nodded, but deep worry could still be seen in their eyes.
They were also worried that Su Mo's forceful resistance to Taishi Xuan and You Tian Han would result in all three of them being severely punished by the Academy and losing their lives.
However, they believed that Su Mo would make the right choice and would not risk his life.
"Oh right, who was that You Tian Han just now?" Su Mo thought of the young man in the navy blue robe.
"You Tian Han is a member of the Taishi Family and is also the top disciple of the Southern House!" Nie Qian said.
"Number one expert? So powerful? " Su Mo was shocked to hear this. Although he had sensed that his opponent's cultivation was high, he did not expect it to be this high.
"Yes! He is at the Peak of Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm. In the entire Southern Yard, there are only a few people who can fight against him, "Nie Qian said with a nod.
Su Mo fell silent. So this You Tian Han was actually such a powerful person.
It seemed that the Taishi Family Faction cared a lot about him.
Previously, this person had said that the Holy Son of the Taishi Family Faction valued him very much.
"Brother Nie, Miss Han, you can go back first. Let me think about it carefully! "After a while, Su Mo waved to the two of them.
"En!" The two of them nodded their heads and left without saying anything else.
Sigh!
After the two left, Su Mo fell into deep thought. Submit to Taishi Xuan?
This was absolutely impossible!
It was impossible for him to submit to anyone!
In that case, he could only join another faction or head to the Inner Mansion Huoyuan Peak to seek help from Grand Master Huoyuan.
Su Mo thought about it carefully. Compared to joining other factions, it was better to have Grand Master Huoyuan's protection at Huoyuan Peak.
Because that way, they wouldn't be caught up in the fights between the major factions.
However, he had previously rejected Grand Master Huoyuan, so now he was a little embarrassed to look for him.
Moreover, if he were to look for Grand Master Huoyuan at this juncture, he would obviously be seeking protection.
This put Su Mo in a difficult position.
"Senior Ghost Sage!"
Su Mo could not make up his mind and wanted to ask for Flaming Devil Ghost Sage's opinion.
However, there was no response from Flaming Devil Ghost Sage.
"Hmm?"
Su Mo was a little puzzled. He immediately used his mind to find Flaming Devil Ghost Sage in his Fighting Soul and asked, "Senior Ghost Sage, what's wrong?"
Flaming Devil Ghost Sage's Demonic Soul was in his Fighting Soul and there was no problem.
At this time, Flaming Devil Ghost Sage finally responded. He said in a faint voice, "Su Mo, have you ever wondered why there is no Heaven's Punishment after you broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm?"
Su Mo was stunned. Of course, he had thought about this question. After he broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm, he could not sense the Heaven's Punishment, but he did not pay much attention to it!
To him, the absence of the Heaven's Punishment saved him some trouble.
But now, Flaming Devil Ghost Sage was asking about it. Could there be a reason?
"Why is that?" Su Mo asked in a deep voice.
"I have thought about it for a long time and I have indeed found a reason!" Flaming Devil Ghost Sage said in a serious voice.
"What reason?" Su Mo asked curiously.
"Your life is not within the Rules of Heaven!" Flaming Devil Ghost Sage said.
"Not within the Rules of Heaven?"
Su Mo was confused and asked, "What does that mean?"
"It means that you are not a living creature born under the Rules of Heaven!" Flaming Devil Ghost Sage's voice was low and there was a faint throbbing in it.
This was because this speculation made him feel somewhat incredulous. It was simply too incredible!
However, other than this reason, he really could not think of any other reason.
There was no other reason that could explain the absence of the Heaven's Punishment.
One should know that when a martial artist broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm, the Heaven's Punishment was known as the Fighting Soul Punishment. It was one of the biggest tribulations in the martial arts journey.
Any living creature, any race, would face the Heaven's Punishment when their strength reached this level.
Even the Giant Beings, who only cultivated the physical body and did not cultivate the Dark Force or Fighting Soul, would face the Heaven's Punishment when they reached the Martial Emperor Realm.
Yet, Su Mo did not. How incredible was this!
"This … this can't be, right?" Su Mo's face was full of astonishment. Everything in the world was born under the Rules of Heaven. How could he not be within the Rules of Heaven and Earth?
This was too exaggerated!
According to what Flaming Devil Ghost Sage had said, he had transcended the three realms and was not within the five elements!
This was the same existence as the ancient gods in the myths and legends on Earth!
This was obviously impossible. He had experienced the Heaven's Punishment in the past. The Martial King Punishment back then was too strong!
"This is the only possibility!" Flaming Devil Ghost Sage said with absolute certainty.
"Then why did I experience the Heaven's Punishment in the past?" Su Mo asked in a deep voice. He did not believe the Flaming Devil Ghost Sage at all.
"You experienced the Heaven's Punishment in the past?" Flaming Devil Ghost Sage was startled. If this was the case, his speculation would be overturned.
"Of course, my Martial King Punishment back then was very strong!" Su Mo nodded.
Flaming Devil Ghost Sage fell silent after hearing Su Mo's words. Could it be that his speculation was wrong?
However, as long as a living creature was born in this universe and reached the Martial Emperor Realm, how could it not experience the Heaven's Punishment?
"Were you born in a Small World?" After a long while, Flaming Devil Ghost Sage seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked.
"That's right!" Su Mo nodded. The Firmament World was a Small World!
"I understand now! I understand now! "Flaming Devil Ghost Sage's voice kept ringing in Su Mo's mind.
"What do you understand?" Su Mo asked, puzzled.
However, Flaming Devil Ghost Sage did not answer him. He fell completely silent and did not speak again.
