Su Mo was familiar with the Black Blade Clan. They were a small clan, and their master was only a stage three cultivator of the Meridian Formation Realm. They were the neighbors of the Crimson Heart Village and a subsidiary clan to the Crimson Hearts.
However, when the Crimson Hearts and the Cerulean Ocean Blades were at war, the Black Blades had mercilessly backstabbed the Crimson Hearts.
The Black Blades had directly cut off the escape route used by the Crimson Hearts. They caused dozens of disciples who had already escaped to be intercepted and killed.
However, after the Crimson Heart Village was destroyed, it was not their turn to share the spoils. The Black Blades did not dare to utter a word.
Only after the more powerful clans had left did they dare to send a few disciples over to investigate and scavenge for loot.
One had to know that the Crimson Heart Clan was the most powerful clan of the Demonic Path on the floating island at that time. Even if they only left a few things behind, these treasures could be considered valuable in the eyes of those who came from smaller clans.
Su Mo noticed the disciples of the Black Blade Clan and immediately walked out. Su Mo was unwilling to let them die in the Illusion Barrier Formation. He wanted to kill these disciples with his own hands.
The five disciples from the Black Blade Clan were already trapped in the Illusion Barrier Formation. This formation would affect its enemies using their darkest desires hidden deep within their souls.
At this moment, the commander of the disciples was looking at his pretty sister shyly. The commander had been a virgin for decades, so he could not resist such a temptation. He immediately hugged and gnawed on a large tree in front of him. He even began to undress slowly.
The other disciples were also affected. One of whom was holding a leaf, thinking it was a treasure. One was exclaiming that he was the reincarnation of an immortal and wanted to conquer the floating island. One was seen climbing a tree and saying that he was a monkey. As for the last disciple, he fantasized that he was a woman and was flirting around with his brethren.
When Su Mo rushed over, he saw the ugly expressions on their faces and couldn't help but sigh, "The system's rewards must be of high quality. Their commander's buttocks are quite white. It seems like they are a shameless bunch after all."
Su Mo got bored after looking at them for a while, so he snapped his fingers and temporarily dispelled the Illusion Barrier Formation.
The disciples of the Black Blade Clan immediately snapped back to reality.
"W-What's going on?" The youngest disciple asked with some confusion.
Their commander looked down at his naked body and noticed that he was erect. He immediately understood what was going on after that.
"It's an Illusion Barrier Formation!" The commander said with some discomfort.
'My reputation as their commander has gone down the gutter,' the commander thought as he put on his clothes.
Fortunately, the commander of the disciples often bullied his brethren with his cultivation skills, so the junior disciples did not dare to say anything even if their commander was behaving foolishly.
"This person before us must've dispelled the illusion. Thank you very much." When one of the disciples noticed the embarrassed expression on his commander's face, he quickly changed the topic and thanked Su Mo.
"You're welcome." Su Mo nodded coldly.
"What are you doing here, Brother? Are you here to scavenge for treasures from the Crimson Heart Village as well?" The commander asked as he finished getting dressed.
The commander realized that he could not figure out Su Mo's true intentions. If Su Mo had the same goal as them, it would be challenging for the five of them to gain any treasure.
"No, that is not why I am here," Su Mo said as he shook his head.
"Then what is your purpose, Brother?" The commander continued to ask.
"I'm here to kill people. The people who betrayed us in our time of need." Su Mo spoke the truth.
The commander let out a sigh of relief when he heard Su Mo's words. He then replied, "Then we will not get in your way, Brother. We will enter the Crimson Heart Village and scavenge for goods."
However, the commander didn't notice that the killing intent in Su Mo's eyes had almost solidified.
"Hmph, do you honestly think that I'm the kind of person who would ignore injustice?" Su Mo chuckled and said.
"Just tell us what you want. We can afford to pay you," the commander said generously.
The commander thought that since Su Mo's purpose was different from his, it would be easy to deal with Su Mo. He knew that he would obtain some treasures when he entered the Crimson Heart Village. He would then use those treasures to bribe Su Mo.
"I want your lives!" Su Mo no longer concealed his murderous intentions. He immediately unleashed his cultivation aura.
"T-That's not funny, Brother," the commander said as he swallowed his saliva in terror.
"I am the third generation commander of the Crimson Heart Clan. Do you still think that this is a joke?" Su Mo's words immediately shocked the others.
'I thought there weren't any survivors from the Crimson Heart Clan. Didn't the Cerulean Ocean Blades join forces with the surrounding clans to completely purge and annihilate the Crimson Heart Clan?'
'Even the surrounding secular forces related to the Crimson Hearts had been exterminated. Why did someone who claims to be the leader of the Crimson Heart Clan suddenly appear here?'
'Is he a madman who's courting death? Or is he truly the third-generation commander of the Crimson Heart Clan? If so, which realm of cultivation is he on? Is it the Meridian Formation Realm or the Golden Core Realm?'
'If we were to face such a person, we would probably be annihilated! Except for Big Brother,' the other disciples secretly thought to themselves.
At this time, their commander was also thinking, 'Since this person is the sole survivor of the Crimson Heart Clan, we should bring this information back to the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan. If we do that, we will be able to obtain a considerable amount of rewards.'
'No, this man is on the same cultivation realm as I am. If we coordinate and attack him together, we might be able to capture him and bring him to the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan. When that time comes, the Cerulean Ocean Blades will definitely reward us handsomely.'
The commander of the Black Blade disciples was overjoyed. He thought that he had hit the jackpot.
"You're the new commander of the Crimson Heart Clan? Hahaha! You're only a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. Do you take me for a fool?"
"As the sole survivor of the Crimson Hearts, you'd better surrender and hand over the last treasures of your clan. Otherwise, we will kill you," the commander said disdainfully.
"Big Brother, don't provoke him. We are no match for this man!"
Although the other disciples had sensed that they were in the same cultivation realm as Su Mo, the aura and killing intent emanating from Su Mo's body were truly terrifying. Seeing that their commander seemed to have lost his mind, they hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"Don't worry. I can feel his cultivation aura. He is only in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and he's on a lower stage than me! Even if he is a disciple of a notable clan, we can still defeat him!"
After saying that, the commander waved his fist and rushed toward Su Mo.
Su Mo smiled but remained silent. His hatred toward the Black Blades was deeper than that of the Cerulean Ocean Blades.
In the past, the Crimson Heart Clan would always protect the Black Blade Clan and offer them help whenever they needed it. However, Su Mo did not expect these greedy men to betray his clan at such a critical moment.
Nonetheless, Su Mo decided that these people had to die today. He planned to trick them into believing that they had hope in defeating him, then he would crush that hope by killing them. Su Mo wanted to do this because he wanted these disciples to feel his brethren's despair before they died.
"We'll see how arrogant you are when I catch you and bring you to the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan!" The commander immediately yelled as he was about to hit Su Mo
Su Mo did not even need to open his eyes when he stretched out his hand to catch the commander's fist.
No matter how hard the commander struggled, his attempts at hitting Su Mo were futile.
Su Mo suddenly let go of the commander's fist and slapped him across the face.
Su Mo's slap was mighty and instantly sent the commander flying. A few of his teeth shot out of his mouth.
The others did not dare to move forward once they saw this. The commander imposing demeanor vanished in an instant.
At this moment, Su Mo looked at the others expressionlessly. He could not help but exclaim in his heart, 'That was such a satisfying slap! No wonder Master liked to slap people when he was alive!'
But no matter what was going on in Su Mo's mind, he still looked at the other disciple with a solemn expression on his face. He then proceeded to walk toward them, step by step.
