Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

The Qingyun List was an underground forum ranking of Huaxia’s Martial Arts World’s young prodigies, and after Lin Mo and Lin Tanyu killed Ning Xuan in the Northeast, Lin Tanyu entered the ninth place on the Qingyun King List.

This was a list recognized by both the Huaxia Martial Arts World and the Magic World. Although no one knew who was running the forum behind the scenes, no one doubted the authority of the list.

Yet to ordinary people, the Martial Arts World and the Magic World remained too distant and obscure. Even for businessmen like Du Li, who controlled a fortune of tens of billions, understanding of the Martial Arts World was rudimentary at best—not as profound as that of Martial Arts Families like the Wei Family.

It was akin to ordinary people seeing stars on the screen, with very few able to truly interact with them and understand their lives.

Although Everyone did not know what it meant for Lin Tanyu to appear on the Qingyun King List, seeing that Li Mingjun’s family representatives dared not take revenge on Lin Mo, and both the Wei Family and the He Family acted like eunuchs in front of the Emperor, Everyone had already understood that this young man had an influential background and his methods were ruthless and decisive. He was not someone they could afford to provoke.

Lin Shanshan looked up at the fearful yet admiring and somewhat reverent gazes cast over her, unable to help but lift her head to watch Brother Xiao Mo, her pure and pretty face breaking into a proud smile.

Du Feiyu and the others looked ashen and didn’t dare lay eyes on Lin Mo.

This young man, who once seemed a beggar to them, had now become a formidable figure that made Everyone afraid.

”Du Li, how will you explain this to me?” Lin Mo turned his head, his gaze fixating on Du Li, his voice light. Yet as it reached Everyone’s ears, it exploded like a clap of thunder.

Du Li and Ma Yan both came to their senses, exchanging looks as their faces turned pale and their bodies began to tremble.

”You promised that you would take good care of Shanshan. Is this what you call taking good care of her? Forcing her to marry a man from Han Country for the benefit of your family, sacrificing Shanshan’s happiness?”

”I...I’m sorry, please, sir, spare our Du Family. I assure you that I will make it up to Shanshan from now on,” Du Li blurted out, steeling himself.

Lin Mo relaxed the fists he had been clenching. He had originally planned to annihilate the Du Family once and for all, but considering that Du Li was Shanshan’s biological father, even if Du Li was never good to Shanshan, Lin Mo could not kill her biological father.

”For the sake that you are Shanshan’s biological father, I will spare your lives. If you dare to bother Shanshan again, I will show no mercy,” Lin Mo said with an icy voice.

”Yes, yes... I definitely won’t dare to bother Shanshan again,” Du Li nodded fervently.

Ma Yan looked at Lin Mo, harboring resentment but not daring to utter a single word at the moment.

”Shanshan, you should come back with me. If you don’t want to go back to your aunt’s place, I will arrange another place for you,” Lin Mo said to Lin Shanshan.

After all, he needed Lin Shanshan’s consent for this matter.

Having experienced the ordeal, Lin Shanshan seemed to have lost any attachment or hope for the Du Family, and she lightly nodded her head.

Lin Mo took her by the hand and walked briskly towards the outside, and the crowd parted to create a pathway for them.

Once outside on the deck, the night sky enveloped them, with only scattered stars dotting the dark heavens above.

”Brother Xiao Mo, how are we going to get back?” Lin Shanshan asked, furrowing her brow in confusion.

”Hold on to me tight,” Lin Mo glanced at her and then leapt off the deck without hesitation.

Lin Shanshan was so frightened that she instinctively wrapped her arms around Lin Mo’s waist, clung tightly to his clothes, closed her eyes, and her long lashes trembled in the sea breeze.

He Wuxue and Han Qingzi, among others, chased after them, and He Wuxue had wanted to say another word to Lin Mo but then saw this scene.

”Ah...” Han Qingzi exclaimed in surprise, only to see Lin Mo holding Lin Shanshan, stepping on the surface of the water, trailing long white streaks behind him as he skated toward the shore, faster than the speedboat.

”Wuxue, don’t be sad, a man like him, if there wasn’t past affection, ordinary women couldn’t possibly have him,” Han Qingzi glanced at her best friend beside her, sighed softly, and tried to console her.

At this moment, on the sea, Lin Shanshan buried her head in Lin Mo’s chest, and it took her a while before she lifted her head like a swallow and realized she was actually standing on the water, her small face revealed a look of surprise and delight.

”Wow, Brother Mo, you’re so amazing.”

Lin Mo conjured a True Essence Barrier in front of the two of them, protecting Lin Shanshan from the sea breeze so it wouldn’t chafe her face.

”That’s nothing, there are even more amazing things,” Lin Mo said, and with a casual wave of his hand, splashes of water at their sides danced into the air, like playful spirits frolicking and tussling with each other.

Under the silver-grey sky, Lin Shanshan revealed a brilliant smile, her eyes misty with a bit of moisture, Brother Mo had always been so kind to her.

”Thank you, Brother Xiao Mo.”

”Silly girl, no need to thank me,” he said.

Lin Shanshan couldn’t stay at the Du Family, and although Lin Mo didn’t kill Du Li and others, the Du Family would be erased from Xiazhou, and without his having to say anything, the Wei Family and the He Family would naturally take a series of actions against the Du Family.

Back in Xiazhou, Lin Mo called out Zhong Qiaomeng as well, accompanying her to play around in Xiazhou for a few days, and then made a phone call to have someone take care of Lin Shanshan.

Two days later, Lin Mo put Lin Shanshan on a plane and let Zhong Qiaomeng return to the filming crew to continue shooting, while he went alone to a music bar located in the university town that night.

In the bar, the lighting was dim, and the alcohol mixed with perfume pervaded the air, constantly stimulating the adrenaline of the young people.

”I’ll go, that beauty is sitting there drinking alone, seems like she doesn’t have a partner.” A few yellow-haired lads sat on the sofa, their eyes holding a hint of greedy desire, staring fixedly at a voluptuous woman wearing a shoulder-bearing black dress, seated next to the pillar.

The woman had an enchanting face, her snow-white skin flushed with a light pink from drinking, irresistibly seductive, enough to make any man’s heart race.

However, the woman was just sitting alone at the bar, her slightly squinted eyes seemingly intoxicated in the music.

”She looks good, got some fun tonight,” the leader of the yellow-haired guys scratched his chin, his eyes shining with lewdness.

Just as he was about to stand up and approach her, he suddenly saw a man with a handsome appearance wearing a black fitted suit sitting opposite the woman.

The man wore a black fitted suit, had a lean physique, thick and flowing hair, and beneath dark and slightly long hair was a face so perfect it could rival an emperor’s, with eyes like stars, and his facial contours sharp yet with a softness of a scholar.

”Beautiful lady, do you find it lonely drinking alone?” the handsome young man looked at the woman in front of him, his lips curling into a warm smile.

The woman squinted her eyes slightly, her gaze seemingly magical, yet with a bit of a haze, ”I think I’ve seen you before.”

”Yes, you’ve seen me, on the cruise,” the young man said with a light smile. But the woman’s face suddenly changed, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Her languor vanished completely, and instead, there was an edge of sharpness.
