Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

For Martial Artists, even those of the same level can discharge their True Qi, but some have pursued Martial Arts to the extreme, where even their nails and hair are lethal weapons.

”Bang!”

Just as Bai Zhan Hall was stunned, a leg whip viciously kicked from the side, instantly causing the air to explode, indicating the attacker’s speed had surpassed the speed of sound in a flash.

Bai Zhan Hall raised his arms subconsciously, but his entire body was sent flying backwards, with the True Yuan gathered around him dispersing.

”How, how is this possible?”

What shocked Bai Zhan Hall even more was that he was now unable to immediately gather his True Yuan, as it was scattered throughout his body and he couldn’t gather it again right away.

”A Basic-level Martial God, and his Martial Arts skills have reached the Transcendent level,” Lin Mo murmured to himself as he looked at Mr. Hong.

Not only was the opponent’s True Yuan profound, but his Martial Arts skills were even more superior. That kick had not only launched Bai Zhan Hall but had also released two extremely fine streams of True Qi from his leg, which struck two major acupoints on Bai Zhan Hall’s body, hence his current inability to gather True Yuan.

”You’re no match for me,” Mr. Hong turned his head and looked at Bai Zhan Hall coldly.

Bai Zhan Hall clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and stared dead at Mr. Hong, his whole body breaking out in dense, fine sweat, but still unable to gather True Yuan.

”Let me do it,” Lin Mo suddenly stood up, walked over to Bai Zhan Hall’s side, and spoke indifferently.

Bai Zhan Hall glanced at Lin Mo and nodded, retreating to Bai Rui’s side.

”And who are you?” Mr. Hong frowned and looked at Lin Mo coldly.

Lin Mo indifferently asked, ”Are you here for the New Mine?”

”Do you already know the secret of the New Mine?” Mr. Hong looked at Lin Mo, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

”This New Mine is mine now; go back to Hongmen, and I won’t kill you,” Lin Mo said with an indifferent expression.

Mr. Hong was stunned for a moment, as if he had heard a ridiculous joke, ”With just you? My return is not only for the New Mine; Hongmen is reclaiming its place in the Dragon Sect, and no one can stop that.”

As he spoke the last word, Mr. Hong suddenly slapped towards Lin Mo, with a surge of True Yuan in his palm, forcefully shattering a huge stone beside Lin Mo.

”If you don’t want to die, get lost...” Mr. Hong hadn’t finished speaking when his pupils suddenly constricted.

Because Lin Mo had vanished from his sight suddenly, only for Mr. Hong to then widen his eyes, seeing Lin Mo reappear right before him.

Lin Mo punched Mr. Hong in the shoulder; Mr. Hong was sent flying, his scapula and sternum breaking, he lay on the ground, spitting out mouthfuls of fresh blood.

Mr. Hong looked at Lin Mo with horror in his eyes; Lin Mo hadn’t used any True Yuan, merely his physical strength had done this damage; such a man was truly terrifying! ”Today I won’t kill you, go back and tell the people at Hongmen that they can’t take a step here,” Lin Mo said with a cold voice.

Mr. Hong looked at Lin Mo, his gaze filled with deep dread, he endured the pain and asked, ”By doing this, you’re making an enemy of Hongmen, may I know your honorable name?”

”Lin Mo.”

Lin Mo said calmly.

Hei Xiong hurriedly ran over to help Mr. Hong up, as Mr. Hong bowed slightly towards Lin Mo, ”Mr. Hong has not returned to Huaxia for over a decade, I didn’t expect the young generation here to be so formidable, I am impressed.”

”Mr. Hong, shall we just...”

Hei Xiong was somewhat unwilling; not only did they lose to the Liao Family today, but it’s likely that his reputation in Tengchong would severely decline henceforth.

”Let’s go.” Mr. Hong, holding his shoulder, shook his head and turned to leave with his people.

”Mr. Hong, are we really going to let this go?” Hei Xiong supported Mr. Hong, biting his teeth as he spoke.

Mr. Hong sighed and then said in a deep voice, ”I’ve said before that Hongmen must not be insulted.”

This year’s Gambling Stone Conference was particularly lively, not only witnessing the competition among the Gambling Stone Saints but also seeing Martial Arts Masters take action. In no time, news spread throughout Tengchong and even the entire Yun Province.

Various major families of Yun Province summoned their children back home, as if facing a formidable enemy, because Hongmen had arrived!

The Liao Family, Shan Family, and people from the trade associations also left one after another.

”Mr. Lin, I really can’t thank you enough for what happened this time, but I don’t know how I can express my gratitude to you now,” Liao Zhiping said as he clasped his hands together.

Lin Mo chuckled and said, ”If you want to thank me, just give the New Mine to me.”

Hearing Lin Mo’s words, Liao Zhiping clenched his teeth and said, ”Mr. Lin not only saved my life but also preserved the reputation of my Liao Family. If Mr. Lin truly desires this New Mine, I am willing to offer it as a token of my gratitude.”

Lin Mo looked at him deeply.

Having navigated the business seas for decades, Liao Zhiping was experienced in human relations. Now that he was offering the New Mine to him so readily, he probably didn’t want to deal with trouble.

”I don’t know where the New Mine is, but I’d like to go see it right now,” Lin Mo asked.

”I’ll have someone take you there,” said Liao Zhiping as he called over Housekeeper Huang and gave him some instructions.

”Brother Xiao Mo, let me come with you,” Bai Rui suddenly said.

Lin Mo nodded, and the two of them followed Housekeeper Huang toward the New Mine.

Liao Ke and Li Yunfei opened their mouths, then noticing Bai Rui following Lin Mo like a little bird, both felt a twinge of sourness in their hearts.

”Dad, it was so hard for us to get the mine, and now you are just handing it over to someone else,” Liao Changjing said with furrowed brows and a look of pain on his face.

Liao Zhiping glanced at him, his eyes filled with disappointment, ”You are like uncarvable rotting wood. I’m afraid even Xiao Ke understands better than you do.”

Liao Ke snapped back to his senses and said earnestly, ”We definitely can’t keep this New Mine. Now the Bai Family, Mr. Lin, and Hongmen have all come for it. The New Mine has become a hot potato, and even if we held onto it, we wouldn’t be able to grasp it, not to mention it would bring disaster upon us.”

Liao Changjing and Liao Changwei, among others, felt as if they’d been hit over the head with a realization.

Whether it was Mr. Lin, the Bai Family, or Hongmen, none were forces they could afford to offend. This was a battle of the gods—mortals who got involved would only suffer.

”Mr. Lin, Miss Bai, this area is where the newly opened mine is located,” Housekeeper Huang said, standing tall and pointing toward a mountain range with reverence.

”Mm, you can go back. I’ll have a look around myself,” Lin Mo nodded.

Housekeeper Huang clasped his hands and then turned to leave.

Lin Mo stood still, his gaze sweeping over a desolate expanse. Sparse trees grew amidst the chaos of stones unearthed from the mining operations. To his eyes, these stones shone like bright candles and seemed as tempting as delicious food.

Bai Rui stood elegantly by his side, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, ”Brother Xiao Mo, what’s so impressive about this place?”

Bai Rui was aware of Lin Mo’s capabilities; why would he be interested in a mere mine? There surely must be some ’treasure’ inside that attracted both Lin Mo and the people from Hongmen.

”Feel it closely,” Lin Mo said softly.

”Okay,” Bai Rui nodded, closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and tried to feel carefully.

After a while, Bai Rui opened her eyes in surprise, a spark of brilliance in her gaze.

”Brother Xiao Mo, these stones seem extraordinary. I can feel a very warm and comfortable sensation,” Bai Rui exclaimed, her cherry lips agape.

(The excitement continues tomorrow.)
