Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”How’s the preparation for tomorrow’s banquet?” Lin Mo asked as he lifted his head indifferently.

”The banquet is ready. People from various elite families in Seoul and the members of Martial Arts Halls will come to offer their congratulations,” a middle-aged man spoke up. This person was none other than Li Shashu’s father, the current helmsman of the Li Family, Li Zheng.

”With grandfather returning this time, our Li Family can finally make a stand. Even the chairman of Sanhe Group will have to treat our Li Family with a bit more respect,” Li Shashu’s face showed a hint of pride.

Among these advanced families, experts like Lin Mo were the true foundation of a family. Now in Han Country, several families either had a Sword Master to hold the fort or were affiliated with the Divine Palace of Han Country, each possessing unimaginable foundations to the common people.

”Hm,”

Lin Mo merely nodded lightly.

After saying this, Li Shashu suddenly fell silent for a moment before slowly continuing, ”Grandfather, but what if Lin Mo... comes?”

Half a month earlier, Lin Mo arrived in Han Country, first killing the leader of the Bloodthirsty Society, then slaughtering over a hundred of its members in Chinatown, and then crushing the Asakusa Society. He proceeded to defeat Lin Mo with three punches. Not only was the Underworld of Han Country shaken, but even the upper echelons of Han Country were alerted.

But for now, there was no news from the upper echelons of Han Country, because after all, the incident was related to the Underworld. If the Han Country officials intervened, it might lead to an even more severe outcome, especially since the relationship between Han Country and Huaxia was very special.

Moreover, Huaxia’s national strength was now powerful, with military forces ranked among the top in the world, known as the hegemon of Asia, and not an entity Han Country could afford to provoke.

Hearing Li Shashu’s words, Li Zheng and the rest of the Li Family all cast grave looks.

After all, Lin Mo’s strength was too formidable. He had slain Park Shiyou and defeated Lin Mo; the Li Family had thoroughly offended him. During the past half-month, everyone dreaded Lin Mo’s revenge. The Li Family was on high alert, with hundreds of bodyguards stationed within, even equipped with Broken Martial Guns and weaponry.

Although the family’s power was strong, if Lin Mo targeted only the high-ranking members for assassination, it would be hard to guard against.

”I had just emerged from seclusion at that time, and my power hadn’t stabilized. That’s why I lost to him,” Lin Mo snorted coldly, ”Our Li Family wields significant influence in Han Country. If Lin Mo dares to come to our place, that would be a blatant provocation of Han Country’s officials. He has probably already returned to Huaxia by now.”

Upon hearing Lin Mo’s words, everyone nodded in agreement.

Although Lin Mo’s power was great, it was now the era of advanced weaponry. As a key core of the Sanhe Group, with close ties to the official high-level officials, if Lin Mo dared to attack the Li Family, it would be a direct challenge to the official power of Han Country.

Even if an individual was powerful, they could not stand against a modernized army; otherwise, why would those ancient Heavenly Masters and Sword Saints choose to remain hidden and not reemerge, if not to avoid and fear the military powers?

The members of the Li Family came to their senses. With their formidable influence, how could Lin Mo dare to directly engage in battle with the Li Family? It was just that Lin Mo’s demonstrated strength had been so overwhelming that everyone had initially panicked, losing some of their rationality.

The next day dawned with bright sunshine.

Lin Mo finally left the hotel, changed into a simple and clean casual outfit, his finely cut hair subtly shimmering with a dark sheen under the early summer sun. He didn’t conceal his handsome features, strolling down the street and drawing the gaze of women shopping around, who couldn’t help but reveal a hint of infatuation.

”Master, where are we going today?” Yingzi asked, her clear and innocent eyes slightly shining with excitement.

This half month had nearly bored the little girl to death, and now that Lin Mo was finally able to come out, she was naturally overjoyed.

”To kill someone.”

Lin Mo’s hands were in his pockets as he casually walked ahead.

”It must be that person who escaped last time. The Li Family actually dared to betray Master; we must make them pay.” Yingzi clenched her pale fists and swung at the air twice, cute and endearing.

The Li Family was numerous, gathered in a village next to Seoul, which was the Li Family’s main stronghold.

Although Lin Mo was not familiar with Han Country, he had left a Tao Seal mark on Li Yanzhen when he escaped, much like a precise GPS tracker, so finding Li Yanzhen’s hideout was not a difficult task. Lin Mo and Yingzi were in no hurry, taking the subway and buses along the way. By the time they reached Ying County, it was evening. The setting sun cast a glow over the green mountains and waters, a shame that it was past the season of peach blossoms. Though thousands of peach trees were planted in front of Li Village, only a few scattered petals remained.

The inhabitants of Li Village were all members of the Li Family. Extending from the village was a thirty-meter-wide cement road, leading directly to the Li Family’s headquarters. However, when Lin Mo and Yingzi stood by the roadside, they noticed it was lined with various luxury cars—Ferraris, Bentleys, Mercedes, Rolls-Royces, and other high-end vehicles—as many people headed towards the village. On the peach trees, now bare of blossoms, hung two rows of red lanterns, each bearing the black character ’Li’.

”Hey, Sister Yingzi.”

Just then, a voice laced with surprise called out from behind them.

Lin Mo turned around and saw two slender women in evening dresses, with skin as fair as snow, standing gracefully behind them. At the same time, two young men in suits, both handsome with a tinge of arrogance on their faces, were also present.

”Coco, Xuanxuan,” Yingzi greeted the women with a smile. ”Master, these two sisters are Huaxia people; I met them at the restaurant last time.”

The two women were indeed Coco and Lu Xuanxuan. A couple of days ago, Yingzi had run into them at a restaurant where they were being harassed by thugs, so she stepped in to help and got acquainted. It was such a coincidence to run into them again.

”Sister Yingzi, is this your boyfriend? He’s really handsome.” Coco stealthily glanced at Lin Mo and teased Yingzi with a playful smile.

Yingzi’s cheeks flushed: ”He’s my master, not my boyfriend.”

Coco thought Yingzi was being shy. It was the modern era, after all, and referring to someone as ’master’ seemed like something out of cosplay.

Lu Xuanxuan also caught sight of Lin Mo, and even with her cool demeanor, her eyes flashed with a touch of admiration.

Lu Xuanxuan was originally from Hong Kong in Huaxia, with a Huaxia father and a French mother, making her a mix of English and French. She won the Miss Hong Kong title during her freshman year of college and later entered the modeling world, becoming a supermodel.

For a woman as outstanding and beautiful as her, who had seen countless handsome men in the model circle and never lacked attention from scions of major families, no young man had ever provoked such a feeling of astonishment.
