Su Mo fell silent after Luo Qianfan’s words.

He was considering the risk of keeping the Firmament Sect and the Sus in Hong Domain.

Su Mo agreed with Luo Qianfan. It was indeed safer to do so.

He was just wondering why Luo Qianfan and the imperial family were being so kind to offer shelter, pay a rather great effort to settle his people and ask for nothing in return!

Did the imperial family value his potential?

Su Mo was not sure!

However, he knew the moral standing and disposition of Luo Qianfan pretty well.

After some thinking, Su Mo made up his mind and looked at Highest Elder and Elder Wei.

“What do you think?” He asked.

“Su Mo, you’re the Sect Leader now, and I’ll respect your decision!” Elder Wei said.

Highest Elder’s eyebrows knitted tightly. He turned his head to Yue Gu and asked, “Brother Yue, how sure are you to be able to hide us from Cold-blood Hall?”

Highest Elder was not that sure about the kid’s words and just want an affirmative reply from Yue Gu.

“As long as the imperial family stays, we’ll keep you safe!” Yue Gu said earnestly.

Highest Elder took a deep breath and said to Su Mo, “I agree to stay in Hong Domain!”

Su Mo nodded assent. He also preferred Luo Qianfan’s offer.

Su Mo was not worried if the imperial family had some evil intent to Gale Island and the Sus. It would be of no benefit to the imperial family who were incapable to dominate Skymoon Country under Cold-blood Hall.

Weak as Gale Island was, they had Highest Elder to protect them. Besides, the imperial family would have to expose their strength to attack Gale Island.

“Luo Qianfan, I’ll leave them to you! You should make the arrangements!” Su Mo said.

Luo Qianfan smiled and said, “Rest assured, Su Mo! I guarantee that we’ll do this nice and sound in the name of the imperial family!”

“Many thanks!” Su Mo said and then took a deep breath.

“We’ll be leaving then!” Luo Qianfan stood up and said, “We’ll go home first to do some preparations. Tonight, we’ll take all Gale Island members and the Sus to Imperial City!”

“Okay!” Su Mo nodded heavily.

“Li Qingping, let’s catch up after you arrive at Imperial City!” Yue Gu smiled and said to Highest Elder.

The two then walked out of the hall and flew away.

Su Mo, Highest Elder, and Elder Wei stayed for another while in the hall, talking about the future development of the Firmament Sect.

Soon, two hours had passed, many disciples and elders gathered at the hall.

Su Mo told them the plan was changed to tonight and told them to gather there before dark.

He also communicated with his father Su Hong about the new plan to let the Sus wait at home for the imperial family’s members.

Time passed slowly, and night fell.

Su Mo had been waiting quietly in the hall. Soon, a lot of members gathered here again.

Nobody talked, and everyone was moody. After all, they were leaving Gale Island, a place they had stayed for years, not knowing when they would return.

Apart from Highest Elder and Elder Wei, none of them knew the truth, and they thought that they would leave Skymoon Country.

An hour later, wind noise rose, along with hundreds of figures landing from the sky.

The experts from the Imperial family had arrived!

The crowd turned pale with fright because they thought the figures were Cold-blood Hall experts. Highest Elder immediately explained to them.

Then, the experts divided thousands of the Firmament Sect members into groups and carried them away to the skyline.

Some hours later, there were few people left on the island.

They were Su Mo, Highest Elder, Elder Wei, the First Elder, the Second Elder, Wang Hui, and several other elders.

“Su Mo, we’re leaving!”

Highest Elder said in a deep voice, and they all knew that Su Mo would not come along.

“Go!” Sitting in the main seat, Su Mo nodded slightly and said.

“Junior Brother, take care!” Wang Hui stepped forward and said to Su Mo with his hands slightly folded. He was still terribly weak with a pale face.

“Brother Wang, you too!” Su Mo stood up and folded his hands too.

“Su Mo, safety first!” Elder Wei said with a solemn face.

“Sect Leader, take care!”

“Sect Leader, take care!”

“…”

The crowd saluted to Su Mo with their hands folded.

Su Mo took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. He swept the crowd and said firmly, “Elders, wait for me. You must wait for me, and I will be back!”

Su Mo sounded solid and husky with emotion.

He was not sure when he would be back this time.

Maybe months, maybe years, maybe never!

However, as long as he was alive, he shall be back!

“We will wait for you!” The crowd said loudly.

Moments later, they left. On the vast Gale Island, there was only Su Mo himself.

Sitting in the sect hall, he looked over the sky and lost in thought.

He felt lonely and in desolation. Having seen the leaving members and the quiet island, a thought of giving up everything to live an easy life had rose in him from nowhere.

People, they came and left, grieved and joyed, laid low and showed off. No one could determine how his life went, which was both the sad and lucky part of life!

Later, Su Mo shook his head and immediately called off this ‘dangerous’ mood.

Swoosh!

Right at the moment, a figure flew here and landed in the doorway. It was Luo Qianfan.

“Su Mo, I have a jar of fine wine. Let’s drink till all’s blue!”

Luo Qianfan walked into the hall and took out a jar.

“Good! Drink till all’s blue!”

Su Mo chortled and said. They then sat on the ground of the hall and started to drink.
