Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”I’m not leaving the Star Sect; it’s just that I, as the Sect Leader, haven’t been responsible enough. There are beings on this Earth even more powerful than I am, and I don’t want to implicate the Star Sect because of me,” Lin Mo said calmly.

The three elders were simultaneously startled. Lin Mo had already stepped into the Innate stage; even the Qingxuan Sect within the Hidden Sect probably couldn’t handle Lin Mo. But now Lin Mo said there were beings stronger than him on Earth, which was truly terrifying.

When Lin Mo saw the appearance of the Blood Clan and Winged People in the Western World, he had an ominous feeling that something big was about to happen. Those Six-Wings and Blood Race Marquises definitely possessed the power of Innate Strong People, and perhaps even stronger alien species would emerge, as if they were just waiting for the right moment.

”Are there stronger beings than the Sect Leader?” Qiu Xingjian widened his eyes.

”Yes, now it’s estimated that they can’t come out temporarily, but the Star Sect must strengthen its power to have the ability to protect itself. The several elders can recruit disciples externally, and as for resources, the Medicine Shop can supply them, and I will provide some Spirit Stones to you,” Lin Mo stated.

This was Lin Mo’s real purpose. Once those alien species appeared, the entire world would be thrown into chaos. By then, only by having certain strength could one ensure the safety of oneself and loved ones.

”Yes, Sect Leader.”

The three elders slightly bowed and responded in unison.

Lin Mo chuckled bitterly. These people still called him Sect Leader.

”Alright, you three discuss it well. As for my parents and friends, they will stay within the Star Sect, and you should take good care of them,” Lin Mo instructed.

”This doesn’t need the Sect Leader’s command; it is our duty.”

Having parents remain in the Star Sect is undoubtedly safer than being outside. Moreover, the two of them had many misunderstandings in their youth without time together; now, being together, they could perhaps make up for past regrets.

After arranging the affairs within the sect, Lin Mo did not return to rest in the back courtyard. Instead, he walked in the sky, arriving at the highest peak of the vast mountains, and then took out the Xuanyuan Sword. The azure treasure sword’s edge was streaked with electric serpents, appearing extremely resplendent in the night.

”The Heavenly Reversal Nine Swords are one of the strongest Immortal Weapons of the Innate Stage, divided into nine layers. The power of each layer increases progressively, and the final sword’s power is nine times that of the previous eight swords, which speaks volumes about its might. Even the senior who created this Swordsmanship exhausted a lifetime’s lifespan to only reach the eighth layer of this Swordsmanship.”

Lin Mo’s eyes flashed with brilliance in the night, thrusting a sword: ”Shadowless Kill!”

Three snow-white light figures appeared around him, each one wielding a sword in a dance—one piercing through the firmament, one sweeping horizontally, and one stabbing into the ground. In less than half a breath, these three light figures merged into one sword.

In one sword thrust, the world turned into a vast expanse of glistening white snow, as if standing at the pinnacle of a snowy mountain, with winds sweeping the snow, and ice grains violently swirling in the gusts.

As the sword thrust out, a streak of white light flashed by, leaving a faint afterimage in the field of view.

”Reaching the Perfect Realm of the First Level requires the split of nine silhouettes. I can now only split into three residual shadows; I still need much effort in cultivation,” Lin Mo pondered silently.

The next day.

The air was somewhat chilly, with snow gently falling across the world, draping it in silver attire, and crystalline ice cones forming on the branches.

”Dad, Mom, Shanshan, I’ve arranged for the three elders to escort you back to Hong City. I’ll be visiting the Imperial City with Meng Die and Yingzi, and we’ll return before New Year’s Eve,” Lin Mo said. Then he cast a spell to conceal himself, Meng Die, and Su Mei, transforming into a gust of wind soaring into the sky.

In less than an hour, at Lin Mo’s speed, they reached the Imperial City territory, heading straight to a high-end villa by the riverside, revealing their true forms upon landing in a secluded spot.

”Master, I need to go home for the New Year. I’ll find you after the holidays,” Yingzi said directly.

”Alright, enjoy your time at home,” Lin Mo replied with a smile.

After Yingzi left, Lin Mo, Xia Mengdie, and Su Mei walked towards the villa.

”Wow, I’m home. I need to get some fresh air,” a voice emerged from Lin Mo’s jacket hood, followed by a golden light shooting skyward, heading to the villa’s backyard.

”Sister Mengdie, I also want to get some air,” another, more adorable, voice came from Xia Mengdie’s clothes, transforming into a white light landing in the backyard as well.

The golden light expanded into a form—an approximately twenty-meter-long, barrel-thick golden python coiled in the yard. If an ordinary person saw it, they’d surely pass out from shock.

This golden python was the Little Golden Snake Lin Mo had acquired at Lobu Lake. Now, it had entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, its size increasing along with its cultivation, and its layered golden scales reflected dazzling golden light under the winter sun, proving its solidity beyond doubt.

Its massive triangular head had two vertical pupils, in which a golden vertical line seemed to flicker, occasionally emanating a frigid and unsettling glow.

From Xia Mengdie’s clothing emerged a small, pure-white furred mink, about the size of a puppy, basking on the golden python’s body. The Snow Mink Medicine, despite not having the strong bloodline of the Little Golden Snake, benefited immensely from following Lin Mo’s cultivation. Elixirs were as common as meals, naturally bringing it to the Foundation Establishment Stage as well.

”Let’s go inside the villa,” Lin Mo suggested with a smile.

”It’s been a long time since I returned,” Su Mei sighed.

Although Su Mei was nearly fifty, she appeared as a gorgeous young woman due to cultivation, explaining why Xia Mengdie became such a stunning beauty, suggesting Su Mei’s looks were not lacking.

”Mom, I’ll accompany you for a stroll this afternoon and swing by my company,” Xia Mengdie said with a smile, holding her mother’s arm. Only in front of the closest people did this cold-natured female CEO reveal her endearing, girlish demeanor.

”Mom, would you like to meet him?” Xia Mengdie asked cautiously.

Su Mei had left Xia Mengdie when she was young; although claimed as suicide, she was coincidentally saved by people from the Miao Xue Divine Palace, but the Xia Family believed she was dead.

”No, the past me is already dead; I am a new me now. I’ve long forgotten the past,” Su Mei said calmly, but memories of the past brought a complex light to her eyes.

Xia Mengdie’s eyes showed some melancholy. Although Xia Kaihe was quite the scoundrel, he was her father by blood, and she naturally hoped for reconciliation, but this seemed impossible due to Su Mei’s resolute stance.

”Knock, knock, knock!”

Just as the three settled into the villa for less than an hour, someone knocked on the door from outside.

Since Lin Mo had already left the villa and no important items remained, Lin Mo had removed the array here, otherwise, ordinary people wouldn’t even approach the villa.

Lin Mo walked to the villa entrance and opened the door to find a group of men and women standing there.

The wonderful story continues tomorrow.
