"Look, it's the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden!"
Su Mo immediately turned his head and followed the man's gaze.
Then, he saw two figures standing on the edge of a cliff at the top of Emperor Peak.
The two figures were a man and a woman. The man was a young man dressed in a golden robe. His figure was tall and straight like a pine tree, and his face was extraordinarily handsome. His entire person gave off a sense of firmness and dominance.
The young man just stood there quietly, but he was like the sun in the sky, the center of heaven and earth, the protagonist of the world. His powerful aura was unparalleled.
He was the Holy Son of Emperor Xuan Palace, Shangguan Hao!
Although Su Mo had not seen him for four years and his appearance had changed a little, he still recognized him at a glance.
Su Mo had never forgotten Shangguan Hao's arrogant face, contemptuous demeanor, and overbearing behavior in Sunnywood City four years ago.
As for the other person, it was a young woman who looked to be in her twenties. She wore a moon-white velvet dress, and her figure was graceful and gentle.
Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall. Her beautiful face was like a blooming green lotus, beautiful and noble.
"You've grown taller and more beautiful!"
Su Mo murmured to himself as he stared at the woman.
This woman was none other than Xi 'er!
Xi 'er had changed a lot. As the saying goes, a girl changes eighteen times between womanhood and womanhood. In four years, Xi' er had lost her youthful appearance and turned into a stunning beauty.
Su Mo was a little excited and wanted to rush over to meet Xi 'er immediately, but he tried hard to suppress his impulse.
Now that Shangguan Hao was here, he would be courting death if he rushed over now!
It was not that Su Mo was afraid of Shangguan Hao, but it was not the right time yet. He would fight with Shangguan Hao eventually, but not now.
Seeing that Shangguan Hao and Xi 'er seemed to be talking, Su Mo immediately focused his Dark Force on his ears and listened carefully.
On the top of the mountain.
Shangguan Hao and Xi 'er stood side by side, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
"Junior Sister, I've discussed it with Master. We'll get married in eight months!"
Shangguan Hao said with a chuckle. Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, he had an inexplicable smile.
"Didn't you say you'd wait until you broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm?" Xi 'er's face was cold, and she frowned slightly.
"My cultivation has reached the critical point, and I have accumulated enough. I will be able to break through in half a year!"
With absolute confidence on his face, Shangguan Hao continued, "Our marriage is no small matter. We will invite experts from all over the Firmament and Continent. Not only the Three Clans and Five Sects of the Human Clan, but also experts from the Demon Clan. So we have to set a date early."
Xi 'er remained silent, but her face grew colder and colder, like a block of ice that wouldn't melt in a thousand years.
Seeing this, Shangguan Hao frowned slightly, and a trace of haze flashed in his eyes.
"Junior Sister, are you still thinking about that aborigine?" Shangguan Hao's voice became cold.
He knew that Xi 'er had not forgotten about Su Mo, but now that their wedding was imminent, she was still thinking about another man. This was absolutely unacceptable to the proud and conceited Shangguan Hao.
If Xi 'er was not his Master's daughter, he would not be so nice to her!
"Brother Su Mo said that he would come to the Central Continent in five years!" Xi 'er's eyes were slightly complicated, and she said flatly.
Hearing this, a trace of anger flashed across Shangguan Hao's face. It had been four years, and she still had such an unrealistic fantasy!
Shangguan Hao clenched his fists, and a killing desire flashed in his eyes. His woman was thinking about another man all day, which almost drove him crazy.
However, Shangguan Hao was not an ordinary person, and he was not swayed by emotions. He quickly suppressed his anger.
They would soon be married, and everything Su Mo had done would be in vain!
Shangguan Hao shook his head and said, "Junior Sister, when will you get rid of this unrealistic fantasy?"
Xi 'er shook her head gently and said, "It's not unrealistic. Brother Su Mo will definitely do what he said."
Xi 'er's words seemed to show that she believed in him.
Hearing this, Shangguan Hao smiled disdainfully and said, "Junior Sister, don't you know that there is a Barbaric Mountain Range between the East Continent and the Central Continent? Not to mention the distance between the East Continent and the Central Continent, that aboriginal can't cross the Barbaric Mountain Range!"
Shangguan Hao did not believe that a barren aborigine could cross the Barbaric Mountains from the East Continent to the Central Continent.
Even if that aborigine cultivated for another 100 years, it would still be impossible!
Shangguan Hao was very sure of this!
"Brother Su Mo is very talented, and he works very hard. Nothing can stop him!" Xi 'er said firmly.
Xi 'er did not trust Su Mo blindly, because she knew Su Mo's secret, a secret that no one else knew.
That was Su Mo's Martial Soul!
When Xi 'er went to the Breezewind Mountain outside Sunnywood City with Su Mo, she saw how terrifying Su Mo's Martial Soul was.
Although Su Mo's Martial Soul was not of a high level, it could easily improve his cultivation by devouring a large amount of blood essence of demonic beasts.
Back in the Breezewind Mountain, Su Mo improved his cultivation by two levels with the help of his Devouring Martial Soul. How many people in the world could do that?
Therefore, Xi 'er still had some confidence in Su Mo. Although it was impossible for Su Mo to defeat Shangguan Hao in five years, there was still a great chance for him to come to the Central Continent and the Emperor Xuan Palace.
Xi 'er was waiting. She had been waiting for Su Mo to come.
However, now she was a little anxious because she and Shangguan Hao were about to get married.
If Su Mo could not come before her wedding with Shangguan Hao, then it would be too late!
In fact, Xi 'er was also very conflicted. On the one hand, she hoped that Su Mo would come soon, but on the other hand, she hoped that he would never come.
She knew that even if Su Mo came, he would not be able to change the truth. He might even lose his life.
Xi 'er had wanted to secretly leave the Central Continent and go back to the East Continent to find Su Mo, but she did not succeed.
Her father had left a mental imprint in her body, so her every move could not escape her father's control.
A year ago, Emperor Shi wanted to send someone to the East Continent to kill Su Mo, so that Xi 'er would not have any hope.
Xi 'er begged, and Emperor Shi finally agreed to let Su Mo go. However, the condition was that Xi' er had to forget Su Mo and marry Shangguan Hao.
Xi 'er could not resist. In order to save Su Mo's life, she had to agree.
"Very hard?"
