Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”You, you killed Yuan Qing?” Moments later, seeing Lin Mo land on the ground, Liu Yiyi finally recovered, her pretty face showing a slightly unpleasant expression. Yuan Qing was an elite disciple among the Seven Sects Outer Disciples, already a quasi-inner disciple, and what’s more, Yuan Qing was Guardian Ge’s apprentice. His death in the Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land would surely prompt the Seven Sects to investigate thoroughly.

”He already harbored murderous intentions against me. If I didn’t kill him, I would be the one dead. If you think about it, this was just self-defense,” Lin Mo said calmly. His palm summoned a blue flame, which he casually tossed, burning Yuan Qing’s body to ashes. After incinerating the bodies of Yuan Qing and his two subordinates, Lin Mo collected their space rings along with the energy armor, storing them all away. It must be said that the wealth of these three people was indeed quite substantial, exceeding Lin Mo’s expectations. The two law enforcement disciples alone had a combined total of ten million spirit stones.

Yuan Qing, on the other hand, had thirty million top-grade spiritual stones and numerous elixirs, magic treasures, and various miscellaneous items that could likely be sold for another ten million top-grade spiritual stones.

In total, the combined worth of these three exceeded fifty million spirit stones. For the currently ’penniless’ Lin Mo, this was a significant fortune, although it was merely a drop in the bucket compared to the Starlight he needed, which was counted in billions.

”Lin Mo, where do we go now?” Liu Yiyi sighed softly upon seeing the situation. By now, there was no turning back.

Lin Mo retrieved the spoils of war and turned back with a grin, ”Of course, back to the Sect. Where else?”

”But you killed Yuan Qing, and his family has some influence on Qionglong Star. Furthermore, Yuan Qing was Guardian Ge’s apprentice. They will definitely investigate, and by that time, you and I...” Liu Yiyi furrowed her delicate brows, her pretty face filled with worry. Seeing Liu Yiyi’s expression, Lin Mo said, ”You should know better than I do how powerful the Mystic Realm Sect is. If both of us disappear, the Mystic Realm Sect will definitely suspect us. How will your Liu Family bear the wrath of the Mystic Realm Sect, and where could you escape to?”

Moreover, if Lin Mo fled, his family on Yu Lan Star would surely be investigated by the Mystic Realm Sect and possibly face revenge from the Yuan Family. No matter what, he could not escape. Lin Mo actually had a trump card. Even if it was exposed that he killed Yuan Qing, as long as he revealed the Shattered Star Stone, the Mystic Realm Sect wouldn’t trouble him over an Outer Disciple. However, Lin Mo didn’t want the Shattered Star Stone to be exposed unless it was the last moment.

”Senior Sister Liu, Yuan Qing had a cunning and sly personality. Bringing two law enforcement disciples to chase us this time, he perhaps didn’t report to Guardian Ge. Besides, I’m the only one who knows you killed him. As long as you don’t say anything, who has evidence that I killed Yuan Qing?”

Lin Mo’s face had an unusually calm demeanor as he spoke lightly.

Hearing this, Liu Yiyi hesitated for a moment, biting her red lips before nodding her head. Lin Mo’s reasoning made sense. Even if they ran away, where could they possibly escape to?

Canglan Star Domain, it’s all Mystic Realm Sect territory. Besides, even if he ran away, what would become of the Liu Family?

”Fine, we can only take a gamble. Yuan Qing is dead, and no one can prove we killed him.” Liu Yiyi looked up, a spark of determination again visible in her beautiful eyes.

With that, Lin Mo burned Yuan Qing’s body into the air and, along with Liu Yiyi, turned into two streaks of flowing light, swiftly heading toward the exit of the Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land.

Roughly half an hour later, the two left the Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land, and ten minutes later, they arrived at the location of the transmission gate.

A figure was standing next to the transmission gate; it was Chen Bei.

”Senior Sister Liu, Lin Mo, you finally returned. I was so worried.” Seeing Lin Mo and Liu Yiyi return safely, the previously furrowed face of Chen Bei finally showed a hint of a smile.

”Where’s Liu Chun?”

Liu Yiyi looked around but did not see the figures of Liu Chun, Zhang Rong, or Lu Hai.

Chen Bei said, ”Senior Sister Liu, you may not be aware, Yuan Qing came with law enforcement disciples, and Liu Chun and the others have already returned to the Sect. I couldn’t rest easy about you, so I waited here for your return. Didn’t you encounter Yuan Qing?”

”Yuan Qing came?” Liu Yiyi appeared surprised, furrowing her brows as she said, ”It seems our plans to seek the Fire Rat Divine Medicine in the Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land were leaked, but we didn’t encounter Yuan Qing.”

The Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land is vast, and Yuan Qing would find it difficult to track down Liu Yiyi.

”You didn’t encounter Yuan Qing, that’s good. Let’s leave here first,” Chen Bei said with a breath of relief, joy spreading across his face.

Even though Chen Bei and Liu Yiyi had a good relationship, the matter of the deaths of Yuan Qing and the two law enforcement disciples demanded secrecy. Thus, Liu Yiyi did not disclose the incident.

The three of them stepped into the transmission array, and then Liu Yiyi placed a soul coin into the transmission array’s slot. In an instant, the three appeared in the sky above the Seven Sects’ territory.

This transmission array randomly sends them to the sky above the Seven Sects to avoid being discovered entering the Spirit Ashes Forbidden Land.

”Regarding today’s events, let’s all keep it secret, and Mr. Lin, as for compensation, I will have someone deliver it to you,” Liu Yiyi said, looking at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo nodded, ”Alright, then I’ll wait for you, Senior Sister.”

With that, Lin Mo transformed into a streak of flowing light and quickly flew toward the direction of the Prison Realm.

Watching Lin Mo’s departing figure, Liu Yiyi glanced at Chen Bei and said, ”Let’s go back first. I need to request leave from Manager Zhou to visit home.”

”Senior Sister Liu, did you obtain the Fire Rat Divine Medicine?” Chen Bei widened her eyes and asked.

”Yes,” Liu Yiyi nodded and then swiftly flew off in another direction.

In the management affairs center of the Prison Realm within the Silver Giant Egg, Lin Mo entered a shop and saw Gu Sa. Gu Sa was sitting in an ornate wooden chair, leisurely holding a small teapot, enjoying tea with a carefree demeanor. Upon hearing footsteps, he opened his slightly closed eyes, and a brighter smile than a chrysanthemum appeared on his face, ”Ah, Mr. Lin, what brings you here now?”

”I have a favor to ask Brother Gu,” Lin Mo replied with a smile.

”Let’s discuss inside.” Gu Sa stood up from the chair and led the way with a cheerful smile. The two entered a quiet room in the backyard of the shop.

Gu Sa had a rather good relationship with Liu Yiyi, so Lin Mo trusted him.

”Mr. Lin, what can I do for you?” Gu Sa asked with a cunning expression common to businessmen, his eyes squinting like those of a rat.

”Here are fifty million top-grade spiritual stones and seven Fire Rat Divine Medicines...” Lin Mo tossed a space ring to Gu Sa, speaking as he did so.

Among those fifty million spirit stones, forty million were obtained from Yuan Qing and the two law enforcement disciples, while another ten million came from Liu Yiyi. Lin Mo, currently in need of spirit stones, did not refuse them. Gu Sa glanced through the contents with Divine Thought, expressing amazement, ”Seven Fire Rat Divine Medicines, even as basic Fire Rat Divine Medicines, they can be exchanged for quite a few spirit stones.”
