Tycoon War God

”Shall I take you on a tour?” Lin Mu suggested. ”After you’ve seen it, you can evaluate whether it’s expensive.”

”Oh?” Fei Zhenghai said. ”Is there some other special feature?”

Lin Mu smiled mysteriously. ”You’ll know once you see it.”

Even Elder Xiao was extremely curious. After all, based on his investigation of Lin Mu, the fellow was a bit arrogant, but he wasn’t brainless. If he dared to ask for such a high price, there must be something special about it.

Lin Mu led the group toward the north, where a Tai Chi diagram served as the dividing line between north and south. The southern side didn’t seem to have anything special about it at the moment, but when everyone crossed the Tai Chi line, they were all completely astonished.

”This… what’s going on?” Fei Zhenghai was so shocked he couldn’t speak.

Elder Xiao’s eyes widened, and he too was unable to utter a word for a moment.

Fei Xiaoyu, Han Xiaochuan, and Fei Long reacted the same way. The scene before them was too astonishing—it was like a miracle. The northern half, it turned out, was a world of ice and snow.

”Is all this real?” Fei Xiaoyu reached out and caught a snowflake, feeling a cool sensation in her palm.

Before her lay a world draped in silver. A deep expanse of white snow, at least a foot deep, blanketed everything as far as the eye could see. When she turned her head, she saw that even the southern side was now covered in heavy snow. The large tree where they had just been sitting and drinking tea was also draped in a thick, white layer.

”What exactly is going on here?” Fei Zhenghai had lost his composure, and his hands and feet were even trembling.

Elder Xiao was deeply shaken, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Lin Mu. How on earth did this kid do it? This is all too real.

”Is this some kind of high-tech?” Fei Xiaoyu couldn’t help but ask. ”But high-tech doesn’t feel this real.”

Fei Xiaoyu shivered. The bone-chilling cold felt incredibly real.

”Something like that,” Lin Mu said with a smile. ”You can think of it as a type of high technology, but I’m afraid I can’t reveal anything more.”

Lin Mu’s meaning was clear: they could guess all they wanted, but he wasn’t going to say another word. Everyone understood that this was related to Lin Mu’s secret. But all of this was simply too miraculous. If you tried to explain it with science, it was unexplainable. But if it wasn’t science, what method could possibly achieve this? This must be a mysterious domain they knew nothing about and had no access to!

At that moment, Fei Zhenghai began to feel a true sense of reverence for Lin Mu. As for Fei Xiaoyu, her gaze toward Lin Mu now held a new curiosity.

”I always thought such things were mere legends. It is only today that I realize how shallow my own knowledge is.” Elder Xiao sighed. ”Young friend Lin, you have truly made me see you in a new light. This trip was not in vain.”

”Young man, I want two units! I’ll have someone transfer the money to you immediately!” Elder Xiao declared, making the decision on the spot.

Lin Mu suddenly smiled. ”Elder Xiao, to be honest, the rule here is one person, one unit. However, I can sell you a villa at market price. How does that sound?”

This was the same Elder Xiao who had helped Lin Mu several times before, a detail Lin Mu had already learned from Guan Chengye. Therefore, to repay the kindness, he naturally wouldn’t let Elder Xiao suffer a loss.

Elder Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then burst into hearty laughter. ”You’ve got some conscience after all, kid. I’ll have the money sent to your account right away.”

After seeing this scene, Elder Xiao no longer felt it was expensive. The place, from its environment to its layout, gave him an extremely relaxing feeling. Moreover, for some unknown reason, being here gave him an inexplicably marvelous feeling. It was as if the longer he stayed, the greater the benefits to his body.

Simply miraculous!

”Mr. Lin, I want one too!” Fei Zhenghai was moved, quickly telling Fei Xiaoyu to make the call.

”Didn’t you just complain about how expensive it was?” Lin Mu looked at Fei Zhenghai with a half-smile.

”Expensive? Is this expensive?” Fei Zhenghai exclaimed. ”This isn’t expensive at all! It’s an absolute bargain!”

As he said this, Fei Xiaoyu finished her call and looked at Lin Mu with excitement, as did Han Xiaochuan.

”Alright, stop looking at me like that. I’m running a business here, not a charity.” Lin Mu knew, of course, that they were hoping he would relent and let them buy a few more units.

But Lin Mu had no intention of doing so. While Coiling Dragon Bay seemed to have many houses, the number was limited. Rich people, however, were a different story. There were far too many of them in the world. If just anyone could buy a unit, wouldn’t that lead to chaos? Therefore, Lin Mu had to maintain strict control; he would never sell to anyone with an unclear background.

”Now, let’s get down to business,” Elder Xiao said suddenly. He was in a good mood, as Lin Mu was selling him a villa for the price of a standard house.

”This way, please.” Lin Mu led the group back to the large tree. Once again, the scene was picturesque, with lush grass and warbling birds, leaving everyone to marvel and praise it incessantly.

”Zhenghai, if you’re free, you should head back for now,” Elder Xiao said, glancing at Fei Zhenghai.

”Of course, Senior Leader.” Fei Zhenghai knew Elder Xiao wanted to speak with Lin Mu privately and that it was not his place to be there.

After Fei Zhenghai and the others left, Elder Xiao looked at Lin Mu and suddenly smiled. ”Well, well, Lin Wudi. You’ve certainly given me one surprise after another.”

Facing Elder Xiao’s praise, Lin Mu’s expression remained unchanged.

Elder Xiao nodded to himself and said, ”The Fire Cloud Sect, Liu Xiu, and the Fang Family… you destroyed them all, didn’t you?”

Lin Mu blinked. ”I don’t know what you’re talking about, Elder Xiao.”

”Stop playing coy with me,” Elder Xiao said, a smirk playing on his lips. ”What, did you think I came here to call you to account?”

Lin Mu just smiled faintly, not answering the question.

At this, Han Xiaochuan spoke up. ”Lin Wudi, your current situation is very dangerous.”

”So?” Lin Mu poured himself a cup of tea and slowly savored it.

”The Fire Cloud Sect is a power within the Martial Alliance, and Liu Xiu was a member of the Military Department. By killing them, you’ve ensured that people from both the Martial Alliance and the Military Department will inevitably come looking for trouble,” Han Xiaochuan said with a grave expression. ”Especially after the battle at Dragon Tiger Mountain. You soundly defeated Zhang Daoyun, but the world doesn’t know the truth of what happened. From now on, you will receive countless challenges.”

Elder Xiao’s smile faded. ”Young Lin, you need to be mentally prepared. Not everyone in the Martial Alliance and the Military Department is one of my people.”

Lin Mu smiled faintly, unconcerned. ”The tree wishes for calm, but the wind will not subside. I, Lin Mu, have never been one to fear trouble. If they wish to come, then let them.”

Han Xiaochuan was taken aback. This guy... where did he get such confidence? Does he really think he’s invincible just because he defeated Zhang Daoyun?

”By the way,” Lin Mu suddenly said, taking out an item and tossing it to Elder Xiao. ”I’m returning this to you.”

He was returning the Dragon Guard Order; he truly had no need for it.

”Young man, keep this safe. I’m begging you,” Elder Xiao said, catching the Dragon Guard Order and pushing it back toward Lin Mu with a serious expression.

Han Xiaochuan’s expression shifted, a hint of distress in his eyes.

Seeing the pleading look in Elder Xiao’s eyes, Lin Mu sighed inwardly. ”Very well.”

”Young Lin, I knew I wasn’t mistaken about you!” Elder Xiao’s face lit up with delight. ”As long as you get through this, I will personally host a banquet in the Capital to thank you!”

Lin Mu looked at the Dragon Guard Order before him, and for a moment, he felt the token was incredibly heavy, as if it carried the weight of mountains and rivers, a thousand catties and more!
