Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Kill me! My mission may have failed, but I will never betray my organization!” the woman declared, her complexion resolute, facing death without fear.

”Oh?” Lin Mo looked at her with interest then lifted a finger slightly, and a powerful blast of invisible energy instantly penetrated the woman’s body.

The woman was startled, her face dramatically paled as she felt a pain akin to bones and flesh tearing apart: ”Ah!”

Almost instinctively, she screamed out loud.

Her face turned ashen, cold sweat constantly breaking out from her forehead.

The agony was such that not even any man could withstand it.

Yet the woman still clenched her teeth, her face deathly pale, but she still didn’t beg for mercy.

”Kill me! I’ve said it before, no matter what torture you use, I won’t submit!”

Lin Mo gazed at her thoughtfully.

In fact, if he really wanted the woman to confess, Lin Mo had plenty of ways to do so.

However, the move he just used was enough to break any assassin.

But this woman had withstood it, showing that she was incredibly committed.

Although he was powerful, some people close to him needed protection.

For example, Xia Mengdie.

He deeply loved her, but he couldn’t always be by her side, so if there was a guard who was both strong and wholly devoted, it would be good for Xia Mengdie.

Lin Mo looked at the woman and said indifferently, ”I’ll give you a chance to live. You don’t have to disclose who sent you, but from now on, serve me wholeheartedly and do my bidding!”

In the next second, all the pain in the woman’s body was relieved.

The woman looked at Lin Mo, somewhat surprised: ”Why don’t you kill me?”

Lin Mo glanced at her: ”Not killing you is simply because you possess a loyalty that I find quite admirable. If I’m not mistaken, even if I don’t kill you now, you’ll be facing certain death when you return. So consider your options.”

The woman was silent, knowing Lin Mo was absolutely right.

After a deep breath, the woman pondered for a moment and said, ”Indeed, it would be a dead end for me to go back. You are very powerful; following you is the wise choice. My name is Yingzi. If the young master doesn’t mind, I will call you my master from now on.”

Lin Mo nodded and said, ”I need you to protect someone, always stay by her side, and ensure she never comes to harm in any danger, unless you’re dead.”

Upon hearing this, Yingzi’s expression became incredibly serious: ”Yes, Master!”

Then, Lin Mo took out a photo and handed it to her, saying lightly, ”Good, from now on, stay hidden by her side 24 hours a day and protect her. Don’t disturb her; only emerge when there’s danger.”

”Understood, Master!”

As their conversation concluded, Yingzi’s figure vanished from the spot, disappearing in an instant.

Just then, Lin Mo’s phone suddenly rang. He pressed the answer button, and Xia Mengdie’s sweet voice came through:

”Mo, it’s my grandfather’s birthday tomorrow. Could you accompany me?”

Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled slightly and replied, ”I’ll accompany you tomorrow. By the way, what kind of gift does your grandfather like?”

”What kind of gift? My grandfather has a particular fondness for jade. When he was young, he was a Gambling Stone master, so he has a great love for jade.”

”Mm, okay, I got it. I’ll personally select a gift he likes for him tomorrow and go with you.”

”Mo, you are so kind!”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Mo planned to visit the Gambling Stone market to prepare a gift for Xia Mengdie’s grandfather.

”Mr. Lin.”

Suddenly, a car came to a stop at the roadside; the window rolled down, and the person inside stuck out his head, saying with a smile, ”Mr. Lin, it’s quite fated that we meet here.”

Lin Mo glanced at him, saying indifferently, ”Do you know where the largest jade market nearby is?”

”Mr. Lin wants to go to the jade market? It just so happens that there’s a Gambling Stone event today, hosted by the famous Du Yunxuan. She’s not only beautiful, but also has an exceptional figure...”

”Enough, stop the nonsense and take me there.”

”Right away, Mr. Lin!”

Soon, Yu Haonan drove off towards the Gambling Stone event.

By this time, countless luxury cars were already parked at the entrance, with many celebrities heading inside.

Generally, those who could enter the Gambling Stone event were influential figures.

Yu Haonan managed quite well himself and, after whispering something to the two guards at the door, gestured to Lin Mo with an inviting hand, ”Mr. Lin, after you.”

Lin Mo walked toward the inside with a light and airy step, Yu Haonan closely following behind.

Many people inside were busy looking at jade.

However, as soon as Lin Mo entered, hands clasped behind his back, his upright, aloof stature stood out as truly unique.

Among those gambling on stones here, there were no lack of super-rich socialites.

Lin Mo’s looks could be considered outstanding among all the men.

The eyes of several wealthy ladies nearby brightened, staring at Lin Mo with a wolf-like gleam.

Before long, a wealthy lady hurried over to Lin Mo, her eyes radiating a sultry invitation as she spoke, ”Handsome, can I get to know you, make a friend?”

Lin Mo looked at her indifferently, then, in a cold tone, said, ”Not interested.”

Instead of leaving, the cold tone of Lin Mo’s voice only heightened the rich lady’s desire; her eyes burned as she stared at Lin Mo, saying, ”Handsome, if you agree to follow me, all the money on this card will be yours.”

”Do you know how much? Five million!”

As she spoke, the wealthy lady pulled out a bank card, flaunting it in front of Lin Mo.

Yet, Lin Mo couldn’t even be bothered to glance at her, his eyes showing a touch of coldness, ”Get lost!”

”What... what did you say?” The wealthy lady was taken aback, ready to explode.

Yu Haonan stepped forward, pointing at the rich lady, ”Hey, Mr. Lin told you to get lost, didn’t you understand? You think you’re so rich, huh? I’ll give you ten million if you bark like a dog!”

Hearing this, the wealthy lady’s face turned to embarrassment, clearly outclassed in wealth by the other party.

After that, Lin Mo began to select jade.

He circled around those raw stones, flipping through them, and finally settled on one that seemed very smooth.

”This one, pick it up.”

”Right away, Mr. Lin.”

Yu Haonan had just picked up the stone when a voice, full of disdain, rang out from the side:

”Hahaha! Young people are just young; you can tell he’s a greenhorn who knows nothing about jade!”

The voice carried a strong sense of superiority, as if it belonged to someone accustomed to looking down on others from a great height.
