Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Snow Country, one of the largest countries in the northern region of Jiling Planet, according to Lin Mo’s understanding, should be about five or six times the size of the United States. The current emperor is named ’Zaye’, who is now seven hundred years old and a Star System Level Early Stage expert.

This kind of country is different from the Dayan Dynasty that Lin Mo knows. The Dayan Dynasty stands shoulder to shoulder with the Mystic Realm Sect, being a Cultivation Level dynasty, controlling an entire Star Domain’s territory.

On the other hand, Snow Country is just an ordinary dynasty, one of many countries on a single planet.

This information wasn’t calculated by Lin Mo himself, he isn’t omniscient. This information was obtained from Shi Zhong’s mouth.

Shi Zhong, the Captain of the Brave Cavalry of Snow Country, according to his official position, belongs to the Second Tier. His own strength also ranks relatively well in Snow Country and he is a trusted confidant of the Second Prince.

In the land of swirling snow and ice grains turning in the hurricane, if it were an ordinary little beast, it would be impossible to survive in such a harsh environment. But these fierce and cold energies cannot penetrate the array circle outside the tent. Inside the white tent, there is a faint glow of a fire, bringing a touch of warmth to this cold and solemn world, even if this warmth only emanates from within the heart.

”If not for Mr. Lin and Miss Zhou’s intervention this time, I’m afraid my life would have ended in the jaws of those beasts.” In the tent, Shi Zhong raised his glass, and his face, under the shining light, showed less paleness and more of a rosy color.

”The young master and I just happened to pass by and saw the general in trouble, so Mr. Lin asked me to help,” Zhou Xinyue smiled, raising her glass, and said.

Shi Zhong is not a fool. He can see that Zhou Xinyue’s strength is much stronger than Lin Mo’s, but she always treats Lin Mo with great respect, which clearly indicates that Lin Mo’s identity is not ordinary. Besides the dynasty, there are many sects thriving in Snow Country, and beyond Snow Country’s territory, there exist super sects that can rival or even surpass the dynasty forces. He highly suspects that Lin Mo is a disciple from one of these sects out for training, which isn’t uncommon.

”In any case, I should thank both of you, Mr. Lin, this is our Snow Country’s specialty ’Snow Brew’, you can try it,” Shi Zhong smiled, his gaze falling on Lin Mo.

Lin Mo nodded, raised his glass filled halfway with an icy liquid, emitting a faint white cold energy, which had already transmitted through the glass to his palm.

Drinking it all in one go, the liquid in the throat did not feel as cold as Lin Mo imagined. On the contrary, a fiery sensation emerged in the throat, then slid down the esophagus into the stomach.

”Captain Shi, may I ask what brought you here this time and how did you provoke the Ice Leopards?” asked Lin Mo after setting down his glass.

It’s important to understand that Ice Leopards are different from other beasts; they are a species that moves in groups, and offending such beasts is more dangerous than directly offending a single Star Sea Level High-level Beast.

The other two surviving men under Shi Zhong’s command exchanged glances with eyes full of concern upon hearing this.

Shi Zhong set his glass down, laughed heartily, and said, ”Since Mr. Lin asked, I won’t hide it. If it weren’t for your help, I would have been dead by now. Wouldn’t it be easier for Mr. Lin to take the things in my hands after I’m dead?”

”Things?”

Lin Mo squinted slightly and smiled. Shi Zhong had quite a straightforward and forthright personality.

”Exactly, the Ice Dragon Flame,” Shi Zhong said, as a transparent bottle appeared in his palm, containing a small amount of pale blue liquid. Through the bottle, the blue liquid inside appeared dreamy and illusory.

”The Ice Dragon Flame is a Detoxification Holy Medicine. We ventured here this time specifically for this treasure,” Shi Zhong explained slowly. ”The Second Prince was ambushed and poisoned with a rare toxin, and only this treasure can cure that poison.”

Lin Mo nodded, refraining from further questions. Indeed, this treasure has detoxifying properties and is quite rare. Shi Zhong’s venture to capture the Ice Dragon Flame was for the Second Prince.

Shi Zhong watched Lin Mo’s eyes closely, which remained calm and deep, unlike a young man’s eyes. More importantly, Lin Mo’s gaze lacked greed, indicating that he wasn’t interested in the Ice Dragon Flame.

As long as he didn’t attempt to seize the Ice Dragon Flame, Shi Zhong was at ease.

”Mr. Lin, Miss Zhou, may I ask what brings you to Snow Country?” Shi Zhong filled their glasses and inquired.

”Nothing much, just exploring,” Lin Mo smiled. ”If that’s the case, I’d like to invite both of you to meet the Second Prince. He’s very hospitable and enjoys making friends. Besides, you saved my life, which also means saving the Second Prince. He would be most pleased to know.”

Shi Zhong said, taking a seat.

Zhou Xinyue frowned slightly at the words. Coming to Anlin Star System, Lin Mo’s injuries hadn’t healed fully, and they had no other plans yet. However, it was very likely that Marquis Mu would pursue them to the Anlin Star System.

”Alright, though I’m not fond of making friends, it’s nice to have a look around,” Lin Mo replied with a smile.

”Great! Mr. Lin is straightforward, then after I treat my injured brothers, we shall leave immediately.”

Shi Zhong laughed heartily.

Though the Ice Leopard’s attack didn’t directly hit Shi Zhong’s two subordinates, the sweeping fierce cold energy had already caused them significant injuries. After waiting a day and a night, they continued onward. When they reached the Snow Country Imperial City, it was already midday of the second day. The warm light shone on the city, giving off a sparkling luster. Snow Country wasn’t just a simple name; it was a place perennially enveloped in snow and ice, with a chilling atmosphere.

The footsteps on the snow-laden streets made a crunching sound.

”Mr. Lin, Miss Zhou, this is the mansion of the Second Prince,” Shi Zhong stopped, looking back at the two of them, and said with a smile.

Lin Mo and Zhou Xinyue looked up and indeed saw a sprawling manor ahead. Inside, lush greenery was planted, creating a stark contrast with the icy world outside.

Although the manor was expansive, it did not appear grand or magnificent. Compared to a prince’s status, this residence seemed somewhat modest.

Shi Zhong seemed to understand their confusion and said with a smile, ”The Second Prince prefers tranquility and dislikes conflict, so after coming of age, he moved out of the Imperial Palace and has lived here ever since.”

At this moment, the gates opened, and two guards stood at the entrance. Seeing Shi Zhong, their faces lit up with joy, and they bowed, ”Captain Shi, you have returned.”

”Yes, I am here to see the Second Prince. These two are my lifesavers and, by extension, the Second Prince’s,” Shi Zhong stated. Then, led by the two guards, they passed through a long hallway before arriving at a mansion’s back garden filled with rare flowers and peculiar plants, with a sweet and refreshing fragrance permeating the air.
