Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”You... Chen Junyang, what are you saying? For Miss Wang to take a fancy to you is a blessing for the Chen Family. Don’t you believe I can bankrupt your family?” Wang Ni’s face turned red, no longer maintaining her affected elegance, she cursed loudly.

”I, Chen Junyang, am not flattered by your attention,” Chen Junyang sneered.

At this moment, a middle-aged couple, dressed in gleaming attire, walked over with furrowed brows. Approaching Wang Ni, they asked, ”What’s wrong, daughter?”

”This guy actually called me trash!” Wang Ni pointed at Chen Junyang.

A cold look instantly crossed the faces of the middle-aged couple as they stared at Chen Junyang.

Just then, Chen Junyang’s parents also came over, Mr. Chen wearing a sycophantic smile, hurriedly said, ”Mr. Wang, what’s the matter?”

”How could it be anything else? Your son called my daughter trash. If your Chen Family does not wish to be in-laws with the Wang Family, then let’s forget this matter. Also, about the one billion you owe me, I will have my lawyers come to collect it,” Mr. Wang snorted coldly.

Hearing his words, both Mr. and Mrs. Chen’s faces lost color. Mr. Chen glared fiercely at Chen Junyang, scolding, ”Junyang, how dare you speak to Miss Wang like that? Apologize right now!”

”Why should I apologize? I never liked her in the first place,” said Chen Junyang with a hint of anger on his face.

All the social elites from Hei Province were present, watching the scene like it was a spectacle. Mr. Wang’s face showed anger as he barked, ”Brave boy, at least you’ve got guts. Just don’t come begging to me later.”

With that, Mr. Wang, taking his daughter and wife by the hand, started to walk away.

”Mr. Wang, please hear me out. My son is no good, and I’ll definitely teach him a lesson,” Mr. Chen, glaring at Chen Junyang, quickly followed with his wife.

”Phew.” Chen Junyang let out a heavy sigh, showing a bitter smile to Lin Mo, ”Brother Mo, sorry you had to see that.”

Lin Mo looked at him, asking, ”What’s all this about?”

Chen Junyang told the whole story. It turned out the Chen Family had recently engaged in a foreign trade, but their cargo ship ran into trouble on its route, incurring tens of millions in losses. Part of that money was borrowed from a bank, and in the end, they had to ask the Wang Family for help.

Wang Ni had an affair with a young master from a prominent family and accidentally got pregnant. The complication was that the doctor had said she couldn’t have an abortion, or she wouldn’t be able to conceive later on. So, the Wang Family wanted Chen Junyang to marry Wang Ni to shut up the gossipers. Naturally, Chen Junyang was utterly opposed, feeling like it was putting a green hat on his own head.

”Brother, did Little Hui cause trouble?” Chen Guhui asked with misty eyes full of fear, revealing a timid look. The scene earlier had clearly terrified the little girl.

”It’s none of your business,” Chen Junyang sighed, grabbing a glass of champagne and gulping it down, saying bitterly, ”I suppose I can understand. My dad started from scratch and built his business, not an easy task, all for my sister and me. Sometimes I feel humiliated when I see him groveling, but there’s nothing that can be done. I guess I’ll have to apologize soon.”

Yet Lin Mo just gave a faint smile, patted him on the shoulder, ”Since you are a classmate of Lin Mo, what is a mere Mr. Wang? How could I watch you apologize to him? It would make more sense for him to apologize to you.”

Chen Junyang just smiled noncommittally. The Wang Family was wealthy and powerful, with intricate connections to the Bai Family; nobody could afford to offend them. Although Lin Mo was doing well in Imperial City, this was, after all, Hei Province.

Lin Mo bent down to pick up a rose that Wang Ni had crushed. With tendrils of spiritual energy flowing out, the once withering petals miraculously began to recover, budding anew and slowly blossoming into a more gorgeous flower.

”Wow, is this magic?” Chen Guhui’s wide, dark eyes lit up with amazement.

”When autumn comes, in the eighth or ninth month, my blooming flowers will outshine a hundred others,” Lin Mo said softly, handing the rose to Chen Guhui and standing up.

As Lin Mo rose, Chen Guhui suddenly felt that something was different about him. He seemed to be like a towering mountain standing before her, exuding an overwhelming sense of dominance and power.

Lin Mo stood with his hands clasped behind his back, slowly walking toward the villa. With each step he took, the surrounding flowers and tender grass instantly withered.

”Members of the Bai Family, Lin Mo has come to visit.”

Lin Mo spoke indifferently, his voice resonating through the cosmos, making everyone inside the villa feel as if their ears were ringing.

”What’s happening, why do I suddenly feel so cold?”

”Why have all the surrounding flowers and grass withered? Weren’t they blooming just fine a moment ago?”

Everyone showed a look of astonishment, their gazes falling upon the front door of the villa.

At that moment, Chen Junyang’s parents were apologizing to Mr. Wang, while Wang Ni bore an arrogant expression. Suddenly, her gaze landed on the figure of a cold and aloof youth, frowning, she asked, ”What is he doing?”

Everyone turned around; Mr. Chen furrowed his brows and said, ”Isn’t that Junyang’s classmate?”

Just now, everyone had seen Lin Mo; they simply hadn’t paid attention to him.

Inside the inner hall, upon hearing this voice, the Bai Family members were initially taken aback, then an elder spoke in a deep voice, ”It seems we have an uninvited guest. An Shun, come with me and check it out!”

Lin Mo stood at the doorway with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression indifferent. The guests around were curiously watching him, unsure of what the youth intended to do.

”Lin Mo?” Chen Junyang, holding onto his sister Chen Guhui, also looked at Lin Mo with suspicion.

The members of the Bai Family came out, led by an elder in his early sixties dressed in casual attire, who frowned and stared at Lin Mo with eyes as sharp as a hawk’s. Behind him stood the core members of the Bai Family, accompanied by several martial arts masters.

When everyone came out, they discovered that all the flowers in the courtyard had wilted, prompting the elder to frown deeply, ”Why has the Grand Ancestor’s Array failed?”

This elder was Bai Yuanliang, the main supervisor of the Bai Family.

Bai Yuanliang scrutinized Lin Mo with furrowed brows and asked coldly, ”Who are you?”

”Lin Mo.” The two words came coldly from Lin Mo’s mouth.

”You’re Lin Mo? The boyfriend of the Su Family’s granddaughter?” Bai Anshun’s eyes flashed with a cold glint, ”Why have you come here? Didn’t Bai Chengyang go to the Su Family?”

”Bai Chengyang has already been killed by me.”

Lin Mo stated in a detached tone.

At those words, the temperature in the courtyard seemed to drop several degrees, and Bai Yuanliang, Bai Anshun, and the others glared with eyes wide in anger.

”Bastard, you killed my son?” Bai Anshun clenched his fists, staring intently at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo nodded, speaking of the deed as if it were a trivial matter, ”He dared to covet my wife. I only killed him and did not refine his soul, allowing him to suffer greatly, never to reincarnate. That was already showing great mercy.”

Bai Anshun’s eyes turned bloodshot, while a commanding presence emanated from Bai Yuanliang.

Someone dared to kill a member of the Bai Family, and not just any member, but the heir apparent!

”Kill him for me,” Bai Anshun roared furiously, his voice icy cold. A few Peak Martial Emperors standing beside him immediately stepped forward, their eyes chillingly fixed on Lin Mo.
