Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Sword Domain, One Sword Breaks All Laws!”

Lin Mo’s expression was resolute as he suddenly slashed downward with his sword. A golden light burst forth from the Xuanyuan Sword, like a brilliant, massive golden flower, even more dazzling than the sun, causing Miao Xue and Miao Shuang to squint their eyes slightly.

The ice swords that floated in the air and lunged suddenly dispersed into nothingness under the light.

Instantly, the scene before their eyes seemed to have been ’refreshed’. Although no scenery had changed, the aura was completely different.

In the eyes of Miao Zhu and the other disciples, Miao Xue, Miao Shuang, and Lin Mo had all just been standing in midair, staring blankly for a long time, not realizing that the victor in the Illusion Realm had already been decided.

With Lin Mo shattering the Illusion Realm, the dome of the sky also shattered like glass, and the Mountain Protection Array Formation disappeared along with it.

”No, it’s impossible, how could you break my Illusion Technique!” Miao Xue’s face bore nothing but shock and panic.

Miao Shuang also looked extremely upset, having not expected Lin Mo to break through the Illusion Technique in an instant. If it came down to individual fighting power, it seemed neither of them was Lin Mo’s match.

”Little sister, thank you for your effort.”

At that moment, Miao Shuang suddenly heard Miao Xue’s words, her face turning deathly pale, an ominous premonition creeping up on her.

Lin Mo thrust his sword, a bluish, icy light stretching over a hundred meters. Miao Shuang felt as though someone had slapped her on the back, immediately flying towards the incoming sword light, and as she reached midair, Miao Shuang turned her head back, looking at Miao Xue with complicated eyes only to see Miao Xue already fleeing towards the distance.

”Sister, you’re so cruel!” The sword light pierced Miao Shuang’s abdomen, blood spilled from her mouth as she let out a faint, resentful sound.

The sword light that pierced through Miao Shuang’s abdomen carried a powerful Sword Dao intent that directly shattered Miao Shuang’s soul, leaving her no chance to escape.

However, this scene was witnessed by many disciples of the Miao Xue Divine Palace, all of whom showed shocked expressions.

The Great Palace Master and the Second Palace Master were sisters, yet at the critical moment, the Great Palace Master had betrayed the Second Palace Master, letting the Second Palace Master face death.

Seeing the Great Palace Master escaping and the Second Palace Master fade away, the disciples who were still fighting also stopped one after another.

”Lin... Senior Lin, all these disciples were deceived by the Great Palace Master and the Second Palace Master, they are innocent, could you spare them?” Miao Zhu approached Lin Mo, but this time her address had changed from directly calling his name to calling him ’senior’.

”Since they were unaware, I will not hold them responsible.” Lin Mo said indifferently, since he had come specifically for the two palace masters, but unfortunately, the Great Palace Master Miao Xue had escaped.

Hearing Lin Mo’s words, the other female disciples of the Miao Xue Divine Palace all breathed a sigh of relief.

”You handle the arrangements for these disciples, those who want to stay may do so, and those who wish to leave are free to go. I would like to meet Aunt Mei, do you know where she is?”

Lin Mo’s gaze swept over the crowd as he slowly spoke.

In addition to coming here to vent his anger, Lin Mo was also curious to find out who this mysterious ’Aunt Mei’ really was and what her relationship was with Xia Mengdie.

Among the crowd, a woman in her early thirties slowly stepped forward, her facial features were lovely, appearing to be in her early thirties, but she was actually around fifty years old, maintaining a relatively youthful appearance due to her cultivation.

”Are you Xiao Mo?” Su Mei suddenly asked as she looked at Lin Mo.

Miao Zhu and the other female disciples were startled for a moment, and from Su Mei’s tone, it seemed as though she recognized Lin Mo.

”Aunt, come with me to the cottage to talk,” Lin Mo said, stunned for a second. When he saw her, he had already confirmed his inner guess.

Inside the cottage, Su Mei told Lin Mo everything. It turned out that she was Xia Mengdie’s biological mother, originally targeted for assassination. By chance, she was rescued by the Second Palace Master, Miao Shuang, and ended up staying in the Miao Xue Divine Palace.

Moreover, since both the Su Family and the Xia Family thought she was dead, she stayed in the Miao Xue Divine Palace for twenty years. During that time, she had secretly visited the mundane world to see Xia Mengdie a few times and discovered Xia Mengdie’s affliction, the ”Nine Yin Body,” which brought about a severe Cold Poison that tormented Meng Die. Eventually, she found an opportunity to bring Xia Mengdie back to the Divine Palace, asking the two Palace Masters to save her.

Although the two Palace Masters agreed, they used a Cultivation Technique to erase Xia Mengdie’s memory, renamed her Miao Xin, and even prevented Su Mei from recognizing Xia Mengdie.

However, thinking about how the two Palace Masters could save Meng Die’s life, Su Mei had agreed. She hadn’t expected so many things to happen all at once. The appearance of Lin Mo and Miao Zhu let her know about the dirty dealings the two Palace Masters engaged in behind the scenes.

”If I had known about the things Miao Xue and Miao Shuang were doing, I would never have brought Meng Die back,” Su Mei said, her eyes slightly reddening.

”Aunt, don’t be sad,” Lin Mo said, clenching his fists, a firm look in his eyes. ”I will definitely find Meng Die. If you can explain the truth to her, I believe she will trust me.”

Su Mei sighed, looking at Lin Mo and said, ”Previously, I had heard some things about you and thought you were an unreliable man. I even hated you a bit, which is why I took Meng Die away from you. Turns out I was wrong. My daughter found a man of true character.”

”Aunt, you praise me too highly. You also didn’t know the truth and took Meng Die away for her good. You shouldn’t blame yourself.”

”You and Meng Die are husband and wife, so you don’t have to call me aunt. Just call me mom,” Su Mei said with a smile.

”Mom,” Lin Mo said, showing a hint of embarrassment on his face. ”But now you can’t stay in the Miao Xue Divine Palace. Should I send you back to the Imperial City?”

”I won’t go back to the Imperial City. Since as far as they are concerned, I am already dead, going back would be meaningless,” Su Mei said, her expression becoming slightly complex.

Lin Mo nodded.

”Then I will arrange for you to go somewhere. Once I find Meng Die and bring her back, you two can reunite and explain everything thoroughly,” Lin Mo said, nodding again, planning to arrange for both Su Mei and Miao Zhu to go to the Star Sect, which was currently the safest place.

As for staying in the Miao Xue Divine Palace, he still had a very important task to accomplish—refining the Tianxuan Pill!

After the conversation with Su Mei, Lin Mo called Miao Zhu to discuss the arrangements for sending the two to the Star Sect.

”Senior Lin, there is something I am unsure whether I should mention,” Miao Zhu said, hesitancy evident on her pretty face.

Lin Mo sat on a wooden chair, frowning slightly. ”What else is there?”

”Senior, most of the disciples at the Miao Xue Divine Palace are orphans. Once they leave the palace, they have no one to rely on and nowhere to go, so...” Miao Zhu said, lifting her head and looking at Lin Mo with a hint of hope in her eyes.

”Yes, you first return to the Star Sect, and I will discuss it with the elders of the Sect later,” Lin Mo said faintly.

Miao Zhu and Su Mei set out first, preparing to head back to the Star Sect.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo stayed at the Miao Xue Divine Palace. Although the Miao Xue Divine Palace was larger and had richer Spiritual Energy than the Star Sect, its only disadvantage was the existence of a living Spirit Vein within the Star Sect, which could continuously provide Spiritual Energy.
