Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Father, you are here,” Yun Xi’s face showed a slight smile and called out. Lin Mo followed her gaze and saw a middle-aged man in a sumptuous robe standing in front, exuding a majestic aura of someone who has long occupied a high position. His appearance was ordinary like that of normal humans, with a square face, and a tuft of beard on his chin, his robe moving without wind, emitting a hidden powerful aura.

It seems this middle-aged man is the ruler of East City, a Star Domain Level Beginner expert!

As Lin Mo speculated, although the aura of the other party was strong, it was clearly somewhat unstable, probably because of injuries. ”Yun’er, are these the people you found to help me search for the ’Ghost Flame Fruit’?” Cheng Jiao gave his daughter a doting look, and then his gaze swept across the crowd, lingering slightly longer when it landed on Lin Mo, slightly furrowing his brows.

Among the people present, the lowest cultivation was Intermediate Star System Level, while Lin Mo was only at Star System Level Early Stage, naturally appearing a bit ’abrupt’ and catching Cheng Jiao’s eye.

It’s unclear why his daughter even recruited this kind of ’cheap product’.

”Yes, Father, these are the experts I found, this is Zhong Shiming, and this is Hu Lie, both are strong figures on the Demon Domain Sky List!” Yun Xi introduced them separately as she looked at the two. Cheng Jiao nodded, looking quite satisfied, ”Good, the experts on the Sky List, they are all seed-level geniuses who could enter the ’Star Sky Alliance’; with good effort, when the selection of the ’Star Sky Alliance’ begins in three years, it will be your time to shine.”

”Thank you, City Lord, for your kind words!” Zhong Shiming clasped his fist heavily and said politely.

Hu Lie just nodded, his gaze still fierce, staring at Lin Mo intensely.

”Three years later? The selection of the Star Sky Alliance?” Lin Mo pondered these words quietly in his heart, having just arrived at the Dark Demon Sea, he was unaware of the Star Sky Alliance selection, he needs to find an opportunity to ask Yun Xi about this.

”And this young hero is?” Cheng Jiao’s gaze fell on Lin Mo again, contemplating with a faint smile on his face.

Lin Mo snapped back to reality, clasped his fist towards Cheng Jiao and said, ”I am Lin Tanyu, just arrived at the Dark Demon Sea.”

”Is this young hero also on the Sky List? Which sect do you come from?” Cheng Jiao asked. Those who can stay on the Demon Domain Sky List are from reputed super sects or dynasties, these people have excellent genes inherited from their parents, along with rich resources and foundations, and grow up to be famous geniuses.

”I come from the Canglan Star Domain, Mystic Realm Sect!”

Lin Mo responded.

”Oh, so you are a genius disciple from Mystic Realm Sect.” Cheng Jiao’s smile slightly receded. In the eyes of Earth people, Mystic Realm Sect is an incredibly powerful sect, wielding absolute control over a star domain. However, within the Dark Demon Sea, Mystic Realm Sect seems somewhat lacking, here are geniuses from tens of thousands of star domains, some sect forces are unimaginably large, even have World-level experts in command.

Mystic Realm Sect, in this cauldron, is merely a third-tier sect.

”I know some people from Mystic Realm Sect have entered the Demon Domain Sky List, but it seems there’s no name of Lin Tanyu among them.” Beside him, Zhong Shiming frowned, contemplating.

Lin Mo’s sword-shaped brows furrowed, glancing at him.

”Oh, I believe young hero Lin Tanyu has just arrived at the Dark Demon Sea and is not yet familiar with the rules here, you should have a chance to enter the Demon Domain Sky List in the future.” Cheng Jiao’s tone turned much milder, the smile on his face entirely vanished.

Lin Mo didn’t care about the cold attitude, all he cared about was whether the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb had what he needed. ”I invited everyone here because I have a matter needing your help. I believe Yun’er has already informed you.” Cheng Jiao spoke slowly, ”This action is extremely important to me, so those I select must have a clean background. As long as everyone helps with the effort, there will be a reward after success.”

”City Lord, you overestimate me, this matter, I Zhong Shiming will definitely go through fire and water regardless, after all I am friends with Lady Yun.” Zhong Shiming smiled slightly, with a touch of elegance, his gaze sneakily glimpsed at Yun Xi.

”Good, with your words, I am relieved.” Cheng Jiao nodded in satisfaction, ”However, the promised benefits will definitely be given to you as long as you help me get the Ghost Flame Fruit, I will impart a Heavenly Rank Martial Art to you, which at its pinnacle would rival ordinary Realm-level Techniques.”

”Thank you, City Lord, I shall not fail in my mission.” Zhong Shiming’s face brightened with joy.

”As for young hero Hu Lie, I promised you the ’Three Elements Blood Flame Armor’, after success, you shall receive it.” Cheng Jiao looked towards Hu Lie and said.

Hu Lie nodded, ”Good, I Hu Lie will exert all my efforts to help the City Lord obtain the ’Ghost Flame Fruit’.”

The preciousness of Heavenly Rank Martial Arts naturally goes without saying, especially attack-oriented ones, their value is even more precious, slightly higher than middle-level Netherworld Technique. ’Three Elements Blood Flame Armor’ is a type of defensive armor, Hu Lie being from the Tiger Clan, inherently possesses a physique as tough as Demon Beast, coupled with a sturdy armor, improving defensive power would make him hard to injure, he could attack without concern, enhancing overall strength to a higher level.

Cheng Jiao looked at Lin Mo and said: ”Young hero Lin Tanyu, I wonder what treasure you want? Hearing from Yun Xi you are a Netherworld Pattern Master, how about I give you a million Netherworld Stones?”

”Father.” Yun Xi furrowed her crescent eyebrows, hesitating to speak, her pretty face showing a hint of embarrassment.

The treasures for Hu Lie and Zhong Shiming, if not valued at ten million Netherworld Stones, are at least worth eight million, yet only offering Lin Mo a million, clearly favoring others over him.

In his view, Lin Mo was not a figure on the Demon Domain Sky List, moreover only at Star System Level Early Stage, a million Netherworld Stones was already a decent reward.

”Humph.”

Hu Lie snorted coldly, his eyes flashing a hint of pride.

Zhong Shiming similarly wore a touch of mocking expression.

Cheng Jiao looked at Lin Mo, he didn’t think too much, if not worried about the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb’s Beast recovering strength, he would have time to select people, but now time is tight, his daughter casually pulled in someone with Star System Level Early Stage cultivation, an apparent act of ’buffering’. Offering a million Netherworld Stones was already a lot.

”I don’t need Netherworld Stones.” Lin Mo shook his head, ”I heard from Lady Yun that the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb might contain inheritances and treasures left by Nether Pattern Masters. I only wish to, after reaching the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb, obtain some sort of inheritance or treasure.”

Cheng Jiao widened his eyes, then laughed heartily. ”Do you know how terrifying the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb is? I only explored one passage and encountered a Star Domain Level Netherworld Beast, sustaining heavy injuries. And the inheritance you mentioned is deeper within the tomb, filled with array mechanisms, impossible to break open with brute force.” Cheng Jiao shook his head and said, ”Fine, as long as you reach the Nether Pattern Master’s Tomb, if you have the ability, any inheritance or treasure there will be yours.”

Wonderful continuation tomorrow.
