Looking at Qian Xunyue's closed eyes, Su Mo felt empty as if he had lost a precious treasure.
He had not gained anything from this duel. Although he had defeated Shangguan Hao and stopped the wedding, Qian Xunyue had died and Hong Qingxuan had been captured.
"It's all my fault!" Su Mo murmured.
"Swoosh!"
A figure flew to Su Mo's side. It was Deputy Hall Chief Hu of the Sky-sea Pavilion's Craftsmanship Hall.
"Su Mo, let me have a look!" Deputy Hall Chief Hu said in a deep voice.
Su Mo nodded his head silently.
Then, Deputy Hall Chief Hu activated a trace of Dark Force and began to check Qian Xunyue's condition.
After a while, Deputy Hall Chief Hu sighed and said, "There's no vitality left. There's no way to save her!"
Hearing this, Su Mo's body trembled slightly, and his heart sank to the bottom of the pit.
At this moment, Deputy Hall Chief Hu continued, "However, she's not completely dead. She still has a very strong spiritual consciousness."
"What?"
Su Mo was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Senior, is there any way to save her?"
Deputy Hall Chief Hu shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No. If a Martial Emperor Realm expert intervenes, there might be a chance to save her. However, there are no Martial Emperor Realm experts in the Firmament and Continent."
"Martial Emperor Realm!" Su Mo's face showed a trace of bitterness. The glimmer of hope in his heart was instantly shattered.
There was no Martial Emperor Realm expert in the Firmament and Continent, so there was no hope of saving her.
After a while, Su Mo asked, "Senior, how long can her spiritual consciousness last?"
Deputy Hall Chief Hu said, "Her cultivation is at the Martial Royal Realm, so her spiritual consciousness is strong. However, how long it can last depends on the strength of her obsession. If it's not strong enough, it will dissipate within 10 days. If it's strong enough, it might last for a year or so."
Su Mo nodded slightly and a glimmer of hope was ignited in his heart.
If Qian Xunyue's obsession was strong enough to last for a year, then he would have a chance to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm within a year.
Of course, this chance was extremely slim. Even if Qian Xunyue's willpower was strong enough to hold on for a year, it was impossible for Su Mo to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm within a year.
Su Mo's current cultivation was only at Lv 3 Martial King Realm, which was indescribably far from the Martial Emperor Realm.
Moreover, there had not been a Martial Emperor in the Firmament and Continent for tens of thousands of years. It would not be easy for Su Mo to break this shackle.
However, although it was unlikely, there was still a chance.
"Thank you for your help today, Senior!" Su Mo thanked Deputy Hall Chief Hu softly. If it were not for him, he would have been dead by now.
"It's a small matter, don't stand on ceremony!"
Deputy Hall Chief Hu shook his head and said, "Su Mo, when can you return to Sky-sea Pavilion? Deputy Pavilion Master Qian and I will be waiting for you. "
Vice Hall Master Hu's eyes were filled with eagerness. He was eager to learn the refining method of the Natal Spiritual Sword.
Su Mo thought for a while and said, "I'll go back when I'm done with the Emperor Xuan Palace."
Su Mo knew that Deputy Hall Chief Hu coveted his craftsmanship, which was probably why he saved him.
However, it did not matter. Since Deputy Hall Chief Hu had saved his life, he could pass on his craftsmanship Legacy to Deputy Hall Chief Hu.
"Great!" Deputy Hall Chief Hu nodded with a hint of joy in his eyes.
He was not worried that Su Mo would not return. The Sky-sea Pavilion was spread all over the continent, and no one could escape its eyes.
Of course, Deputy Hall Chief Hu did not dare to force Su Mo. After all, Su Mo was not only the disciple of the 13th Elder of the Emperor Xuan Palace, but also an Imperial Craftsman.
Then, Su Mo and Deputy Hall Chief Hu flew to the square below.
At this moment, the people of the Emperor Xuan Palace had begun to see the guests off. The experts of the superpowers had all left.
However, almost everyone who was leaving could not help but glance at Su Mo.
Su Mo had given them too much of a shock today.
Everyone was secretly shocked. If Su Mo did not die prematurely, he would definitely become one of the top experts in the Firmament and Continent.
After today, Su Mo's name would probably surpass the younger generation of the continent and become the most famous person.
"Su Mo, follow me to the Inner Palace!"
Emperor Shi said to Su Mo in a loud voice. Then, he called Shangguan Hao, "Hao 'er, come along!"
Then, Emperor Shi flew away and returned to the Inner Palace.
Shangguan Hao was in a trance. He looked at Su Mo with hatred and then flashed away.
Whoosh!
A figure flashed, and a thin old man appeared in front of Su Mo. It was the 13th Elder.
"Master!" Su Mo bowed slightly to the 13th Elder. Although they were not master and disciple, he was still grateful to the 13th Elder.
"Su Mo, you have exceeded my expectations!"
The 13th Elder sighed and said, "Don't worry, the Emperor Xuan Palace will not make things difficult for you. From now on, you are a disciple of the Emperor Xuan Palace."
Su Mo nodded slightly. He did not care whether she was a disciple of the Emperor Xuan Palace or not, as long as the Emperor Xuan Palace did not make an enemy of her.
"Let's go! Let's go to the Inner Palace together. "
The 13th Elder said. Then, Su Mo put Qian Xunyue away and flew to the Inner Palace with him.
…
In the Conference Hall of the Inner Palace of the Emperor Xuan Palace.
Emperor Shi sat on the main seat, and below him sat more than a dozen elders.
These elders were all the top 20 elders of the Emperor Xuan Palace. All of them were distinguished and powerful.
Su Mo and Shangguan Hao were standing in the center of the hall.
"Su Mo, since you are a disciple of the Emperor Xuan Palace, I hope you can fulfill your duty and serve the Emperor Xuan Palace." Emperor Shi looked at Su Mo and said in a low voice.
"As long as I can, I will serve the Emperor Xuan Palace!"
Su Mo nodded and said. He did not refuse directly because he knew that Emperor Shi just wanted him to take a stand.
As for serving the Emperor Xuan Palace, it depended on his mood.
"Good!"
Emperor Shi smiled and said, "As for the matter between you and Xi 'er, I will not interfere in the future. You can develop on your own."
Then, he looked at Shangguan Hao and said, "Hao 'er, a temporary victory or defeat is nothing. You still have a long way to go."
Hearing this, Shangguan Hao's eyes flickered, but he did not say anything.
Emperor Shi thought for a while and continued, "Your marriage with Xi 'er is over. If you like her, you can compete with Su Mo fairly. As for who can win her heart, it depends on your own ability!"
"Yes, Master!"
Shangguan Hao bowed to Di Shi, but when he lowered his head, a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes.
Fair competition?
Everyone in the Emperor Xuan Palace knew that Xi 'er liked Su Mo, but Emperor Shi still wanted him to compete fairly!
Was there any possibility of a fair competition?
Shangguan Hao was full of resentment. He and Xi 'er had been engaged for a long time. Even if their wedding was not completed, Xi' er was still his fiancée.
