Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Whatever!”

Lin Mo glanced at her indifferently and then ignored her.

His mood was very calm, as calm as the sea, without a ripple. By dawn, he would reach the Han Country, which also meant that the end of the Yin Yang Shishen Sect was near.

”This debt, Yin Yang Shishen Sect, I will settle it with you properly,” Lin Mo thought to himself, taking a sip of his drink.

Seeing that Lin Mo ignored her, Liang Youqi was initially stunned. After hesitating for a moment, she sat opposite him and ordered a drink. ”Thank you for saving me today. I had planned to kill myself, thinking that death would be the end, but the moment I sank to the bottom of the sea, I regretted it. Death is a terrible thing,” she said, taking a sip from her glass.

Then she spoke calmly.

It seemed she didn’t care whether Lin Mo was listening to her or not.

”Do you know who I am?” Liang Youqi raised her head again to look at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo still slightly bowed his head, swirling his glass, and said nothing.

”I’m from the Liang Family in Xiazhou. My dad is ranked 58th on the Hurun Rich List,” Liang Youqi said softly.

Lin Mo remained expressionless.

”Of course, someone like you, a Martial Artist, probably looks down on wealthy families like ours, or else my family wouldn’t bow to the Jiang Teng family and would have to ask the Ji Family for help,” Liang Youqi took another sip of her drink. ”I heard that the Jiang Teng family has the support of someone from the Yin Yang Shishen Sect, otherwise, I wouldn’t have to turn to the Ji family for help,” she said, resting her face in her hands. The drink had brought a rosy tint to her cheeks, making her already beautiful face even more attractive.

”Yin Yang Shishen Sect?”

Only then did Lin Mo look up at her.

”Are you interested in the Yin Yang Shishen Sect?” Liang Youqi was surprised, finally realizing that Lin Mo would actually speak to her.

”Not interested, just heard of it,” Lin Mo replied blandly.

Liang Youqi immediately opened up, revealing that the Liang Family had business dealings with the Han Country, with their most important being the mining business. However, the Liang Family had offended Jiang Teng in their bid for mining rights.

The business conflict quickly escalated into a Martial Arts conflict, with the Jiang Teng family having deep ties to the underworld, causing severe harm to the Liang Family. This time, the Liang Family planned to seek peace with the Jiang Teng family.

”What about this Ji Family you mentioned?”

Lin Mo asked.

”The Ji Family is right here, and this friend seems very interested in meeting me?” Suddenly, an unexpected voice interrupted their conversation.

Lin Mo slightly furrowed his brows and looked up to see a well-dressed, handsome young man about twenty-five or six years old, with a subtle smile on his face, approaching from the bar.

”Ji Li, why are you here...” Liang Youqi’s expression changed slightly upon seeing this young man, frowning.

”Miss Liang doesn’t want to see me. When I invited you for a drink, you said you were tired and wanted to sleep. I didn’t expect you’d have the energy to come to the bar for a drink,” Ji Li said with a smile, sitting down next to Lin.

Liang Youqi pursed her lips, ”Well, I suddenly wasn’t tired anymore and felt like having a drink. Is that a crime?”

”Of course, I have no say over what Miss Liang likes to do, but going out for a drink with a man, shouldn’t you inform your fiancé?” Ji Li said with a smile, turning his head to look at Lin Mo, ”Don’t you agree, my friend?”

”You, you’re nobody’s fiancé...” Liang Youqi’s face flushed red, biting her silver teeth in defiance.

Ji Li laughed, ”Did Miss Liang forget? My Ji Family agreed to help your Liang Family deal with Jiang Teng, making you my fiancée. Does Miss Liang want to go against Mr. Liang’s wishes, or perhaps crumble the Liang Family?”

”You, Ji Li, you’re such a scoundrel,” Liang Youqi said, clenching her fists and glaring fiercely at Ji Li.

”A scoundrel, we’re just exchanging benefits,” Ji Li said indifferently, without a trace of embarrassment, then turned to Lin Mo and said, ”This friend, today’s bill is on me, but Miss Liang is not someone you can have.” Unable to hold back any longer, Liang Youqi slapped Ji Li’s face, but unfortunately, he caught her wrist, ”Miss Liang, is this how the Liang Family is educated? I might have to ask Uncle Liang about this, and don’t keep that cold face with me, if you weren’t from the Liang Family, I wouldn’t be so patient.”

”Come back with me now,” Ji Li said, standing up and pulling Liang Youqi.

Liang Youqi looked at Lin Mo with reddened eyes and asked, ”By the way, I haven’t asked your name yet.”

”Lin Mo.”

Lin Mo placed his glass on the table and replied coolly.

Ji Li’s eyes flashed with a fierce chill as he listened to their conversation, giving Lin Mo a significant look before the two of them left the bar.

After they left, another figure approached Lin Mo.

”Mr. Lin...”

The person stood respectfully by, dressed in a sharp suit with slicked-back hair so shiny even a fly couldn’t land on it.

”And what do you want?” Lin Mo asked with a frown.

Before him stood the Liang Family’s butler. ”Just outside, Mr. Lin saved our young lady; the Liang Family is grateful, but this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Lin, and hopefully...” The butler stopped short, but his meaning was clear: he didn’t want Lin Mo involved in the Liang Family’s affairs, much less with Liang Youqi.

”The more you say this, the more curious I become about the Liang Family affairs. I heard the Liang Family offended a Han Country family called Jiang Teng, and that involves Martial Artists and Magic Users!”

Lin Mo looked at the butler with a faint smile. The butler frowned and said, ”Mr. Lin, I know you are a Martial Arts Grandmaster and extraordinarily powerful, but the Jiang Teng family is not to be trifled with either. Our Liang Family has wide connections and knows experts from the Martial Alliance, even asking a Grandmaster for help, but still ended up being beaten by the Jiang Teng family. This time we managed to ask Master Gu through the Ji Family, hoping for a slim chance.”

Lin Mo’s expression remained calm; the butler’s words were clear. Although Lin Mo was of the Martial Arts Grandmaster’s realm, the Liang Family could also invite them, and the Jiang Teng family could suppress the Liang Family, indicating the Jiang Teng family’s hidden strength.

”It’s not the same as it was a few years ago,” Lin Mo said something that puzzled the butler.

A few years ago, when he had just reincarnated, even a Martial Arts Grandmaster could dominate an area and be a regional hero. But now the Mystic Realm Sect has appeared, spiritual energy has resurged, and the Yu Lan Star has officially entered the Spiritual Energy 3.0 era. Grandmasters are no longer so rare.

”The more you say this, the more interested I become.”

Lin Mo smiled, got up, left the bar, and went back to his room to sleep.

He wasn’t concerned about Liang Youqi’s situation; in this world, there is constant injustice, wherever there are people, there are conflicts and interests. Only the strong can see through everything and transcend their Heart Demons. The butler frowned slightly at Lin Mo’s departing figure, clearly somewhat annoyed.

The wonderful continues tomorrow.
