Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Director Feng shook his head with a wry smile, ”Mr. Lin, since Elder Hu’s student is here, should I still be making a fool of myself by staying? I’ll take my leave now.”

After that, Director Feng and his two students left the villa with their heads down.

”Elder Hu?” Su Yongchun was momentarily stunned, having naturally heard of the renowned medical reputation of Hu Beipeng.

”Is he Elder Hu’s disciple?” Su Yongchun wondered as he looked at Lin Mo.

Su Yingqin and Niu Tao did not try to retain Director Feng either, as even the director had been at his wit’s end just moments ago, whereas Lin Mo had easily alleviated the pain in Su Yingqin’s abdomen.

”Cousin is actually just stressed from work and has overexerted herself, which has caused a buildup of excess ’waste gas’ in her abdomen, hence the frequent pain. The infertility is related to this as well. Brother-in-law, go get some paper and a pen, I’ll write you a prescription,” Lin Mo said indifferently.

”Okay, I’ll get them right away.” Niu Tao nodded, quickly stood up, and brought over a sheet of paper and a pen to Lin Mo.

Lin Mo wrote the prescription and said, ”Follow my prescription to prepare the medicine, take it three times a day, and in one month, cousin’s illness should be healed, and the infertility issue can be resolved as well.”

”Lin Mo, thank you. I didn’t believe in you at first, that was my mistake,” Niu Tao said, his eyes red with emotion.

The couple had faced countless conflicts and pressures because of their inability to have children, and now that Lin Mo said it could be of use, Niu Tao naturally believed him.

Lin Mo smiled faintly. If he had cured Su Yingqin with just a flick of his finger, these people might find it even stranger.

Having settled the matter, Su Yongchun called Lin Mo into the living room for a chat. As for Xia Mengdie, Su Yingqin, and Niu Tao, they naturally went upstairs to avoid disturbing, unsure of what the elder wanted to discuss with Lin Mo.

”Lin Mo, this is our first meeting, right?” Su Yongchun sat upright on the couch, delicately sipped his tea, and said.

Lin Mo nodded. Though he was indifferent to the old man, he was, after all, Xia Mengdie’s grandfather and deserved some respect.

Su Yongchun sighed, put down his cup, and said, ”I never expected you to be Elder Hu’s disciple, it’s quite an eye-opener.”

Lin Mo shook his head and corrected, ”Grandfather, you’re mistaken, I’m not Elder Hu’s disciple.”

”Eh, but Director Feng just said you were Elder Hu’s disciple?” Su Yongchun asked in surprise.

”Though I haven’t taken Elder Hu as my disciple, I did teach him some medical skills. In that sense, he could be considered half a disciple,” Lin Mo honestly replied, recalling the time in Shu Province when he had indeed taught Hu Beipeng some medical techniques.

A stiffness crossed Su Yongchun’s face, his muscles twitched unnaturally, and he said, ”Elder Hu is now a respected figure in the Huaxia medical community, akin to Mt. Taishan or the North Star, and here you are claiming him as almost your disciple?”

”Yes, he has good qualifications, but unfortunately the criteria to become my disciple are even higher, so he doesn’t quite fit the bill yet,” Lin Mo nodded and replied.

Su Yongchun was visibly speechless, shook his head, and remarked, ”I’ve seen many braggarts, but someone who boasts like you, this is the first time. I don’t care if you are Elder Hu’s disciple or not, but some things can’t be salvaged anymore.”

Lin Mo frowned, unsure what Su Yongchun meant by that statement.

”Alright, come to dinner at our house tomorrow, ah,” Su Yongchun shook his head, stood up, and slowly walked towards the villa’s entrance.

After Mr. Su had left, Xia Mengdie came down from the second floor and hugged Lin Mo’s arm, complaining, ”What were you talking to my grandfather about just now? You didn’t share your matters with him; he definitely won’t believe what you said, especially since Elder Hu is such a famous person in Huaxia.”

Lin Mo, with a helpless expression, smiled faintly and said, ”Even if I told your grandfather, do you think he would believe me? Believe that I am the top person in Shu Province, believe that I dominate the Imperial City?”

”That’s true. Even if you had told my grandfather, he probably wouldn’t have believed you,” Xia Mengdie sighed gently, managing a bitter smile.

Niu Tao followed them down, while Su Yingqin had already gone to rest in the bedroom.

”Lin Mo…” Niu Tao seemed hesitant and finally spoke up, ”Lin Mo, there’s something I don’t know whether I should tell you or not.”

”Brother-in-law, what is it?” Lin Mo asked.

Niu Tao began, ”Well, I might as well tell you, as you’d find out sooner or later anyway. Actually, the Su Family asking Meng Die to come back was to find a good match for her.”

”A good match?” Xia Mengdie widened her beautiful eyes in disbelief.

”Yes, because the eldest young master of the Bai Family has specifically asked to marry you,” Niu Tao said with difficulty.

”Who are the Bai family?” A few strands of cold light flashed in Lin Mo’s eyes, as the idea of someone trying to take his wife was akin to seeking death.

Niu Tao slowly related what he knew. The Bai family was a major family in Northeast, extremely powerful—a level five family, which, although a level lower than the Su Family Main House, could completely crush the Su family. They wielded great power throughout Hei Province and held a very high status. Subconsciously, Niu Tao believed that Lin Mo could not afford to provoke them.

”He dares to covet my wife?” Lin Mo’s lips curled into a cold sneer as his eyes turned frosty.

”Lin Mo, Meng Die, people in the family have heard of these matters, but Mr. Su doesn’t allow us to tell you. I advise you and Mengdie to return to Shu Province soon. The Bai family may be powerful, but their influence will dwindle in Shu Province. They won’t be able to do much to you,” Niu Tao sighed and said, ”The Bai family is vast and influential. The Su Family wanted to climb up by marrying Xia Mengdie into their family.”

Disbelief shone in Xia Mengdie’s eyes—she had thought that her grandfather’s family had accepted her, but it turned out they wanted to use her as a bargaining chip, which instantly made her feel resentful.

”No need for that, I don’t care about the Bai family or the Su family. They think they can separate me and Meng Die?” Lin Mo said coldly.

...

At the same time, on the Dark Web’s assassin forums.

”Damn, both Godslayer Temple and Soul Destruction’s top experts failed in their assassination attempts, and they even lost five ace-level assassins?”

”Who exactly is Lin Mo that even Godslayer Temple and Soul Destruction are unable to handle him?”

”I think Godslayer Temple and Soul Destruction must be furious this time. They might send more people to continue their pursuit.”

”Not necessarily. Godslayer Temple lost three ace assassins, and Soul Destruction lost the Black and White Killers. Would they still dare trouble that man?”

”Five hundred billion is not a small sum. But the price on his head means his abilities are certainly extraordinary. I’ve heard he’s at the Martial God level.”

Promises from the top experts of Godslayer Temple and Soul Destruction followed, sparking a fiery debate on the forum.
