Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Hmm, the Master and I also believe he will definitely come out.” Ba Dao nodded. What surprised him was that Xia Mengdie did not react with excitement or loss of composure as he had imagined upon hearing the news; this woman was truly strong.

At this moment, Ba Dao suddenly frowned and said, ”Mr. Xia, there are several very powerful auras appearing in the building.”

Xia Mengdie’s face also slightly changed color. Although her strength was not strong, she could also sense certain auras.

”You can’t enter...”

”Bang!”

The sound of a collision came from the corridor, followed by the door to the office opening, and a group of people slowly walked in.

Leading them was an elderly man dressed like someone from ancient times, with long silver-grey hair draped over his shoulders. Behind him were a dozen men in black suits.

The leader emitted an unsettling aura, deep and profound, like an abyss, making everything around him seem like darkness. He was the only radiant presence, like the sun, a god-like existence.

”Who are you?”

Ba Dao clenched his fists, his sword-like eyebrows furrowning, coldly staring at the elder at the forefront, and the aura of a fierce beast also unfolded mercilessly from his body.

”Ha, you haven’t even stepped into the Star Wheel Mirror, and you dare to speak to me?” The silver-grey-haired elder snorted coldly, and immediately a powerful suppression, like seawater, surged from all directions onto Ba Dao’s body.

The immense suppression made Ba Dao extremely uncomfortable, with his entire skeletal structure emitting a grating sound, and his face flushed red.

”Thud!”

Ba Dao resisted firmly, but it was obvious that the elder’s strength was far superior. Even though he tried his best, it seemed like an ant trying to shake a tree until he could not help but collapse with a thud, his knees carving two deep pits into the hard ground.

”Weak.”

The silver-grey-haired elder spat out a word, then ignored Ba Dao and turned his gaze to Xia Mengdie, saying indifferently, ”Are you Xia Mengdie?”

”Who are you people?”

Xia Mengdie’s bright eyes stared at them, showing no sign of weakness, knowing these people meant no good coming here.

”I am the Qingxuan Sect Master. Where is Lin Mo now? He killed my two sons, and today I am here to claim his life,” said the Qingxuan Sect Master.

”Qingxuan Sect Master?” Xia Mengdie’s eyes widened, not expecting the other party to seek out Lin Mo at this time.

The Qingxuan Sect Master sneered, ”Xia Mengdie, you were originally the Goddess of Miao Xue Divine Palace, and even had a marriage contract with my son Qing Xuan. Unexpectedly, you united with outsiders to murder my son, huh!”

”I am not the Goddess of Miao Xue Divine Palace, you only wanted to use me as a tripod furnace.” Xia Mengdie gritted her teeth, her delicate and weak hands clenched tightly together.

”Lin Mo...isn’t here!”

Ba Dao gritted his teeth, bearing the invisible suppression, making his complexion flush red and his words extremely laborious.

”Hmm? He’s not here.”

From the Qingxuan Sect Master’s body, a hand formed of green spiritual energy suddenly extended, rushing to Ba Dao’s front, grasping his neck, lifting him from the ground with his feet dangling, ”Tell me where he is? This world and the underworld, if I want him dead, no one can save him.”

”Lin Mo is in the Nine Continents Secret Realm. If you dare, you can storm the Nine Continents Secret Realm and declare war with the Three Great Martial Arts Schools...” Ba Dao said with reddened eyes, the tone of his voice cold.

”Ha, the Nine Continents Secret Realm? Do you think I am really afraid of you martial schools?”

The Qingxuan Sect Master’s eyes carried a cold and sinister gleam, ”Go tell Lin Mo, I’ll give him one month. If he doesn’t want to see his relatives die by my hands, he should come for the challenge, otherwise, I will kill one of his relatives every day until he shows up!”

With that, the spiritual energy that grasped Ba Dao’s neck was dispersed, and Ba Dao fell to the ground with a thud.

”Cough, cough...” Ba Dao knelt on the floor, coughing violently.

”Bang!”

Immediately afterward, the large glass wall facing east in the office shattered instantly, countless fragments scattering like bullets, some falling onto the office floor.

The Qingxuan Sect Master and the dozen men behind him transformed into beams of light, shooting up into the sky.

In the bustling city, when the group flew out of the building, it naturally drew the attention of countless people.

”Is that... are those people flying?”

”Wow, is this a movie shooting?”

”Quick, take out your phone to record a video; I want to upload it online and go viral!” Many people on the ground looked up at the sky, taking photos or recording, and with the speed of online propagation, the video would soon spread all over Huaxia.

”Are you alright?”

Xia Mengdie saw Ba Dao still kneeling on the floor and immediately went forward to help him up.

”I’m fine, but I didn’t expect people from the Qingxuan Sect to come out, it seems other sects of the hidden clans will emerge soon as well.” Ba Dao’s eyes bore a hint of heaviness, ”Mr. Xia, why don’t you come with me to the Nine Continents Secret Realm now? I believe the Qingxuan Sect wouldn’t dare to exact revenge there.”

Upon hearing Ba Dao’s suggestion, unexpectedly, Xia Mengdie shook her head.

”Hmm?”

Ba Dao looked puzzled.

”I can’t just go to the Nine Continents Secret Realm alone. Besides me, Lin Mo has family and friends; are we all supposed to hide in the Nine Continents Secret Realm forever?” Xia Mengdie’s eyes flashed with determination.

”What do you plan to do then...”

”I will inform Xiao Mo’s parents and my family. Now that Xiao Mo isn’t here, I, as his wife, must take on this responsibility.” Xia Mengdie clenched her hands tightly, her expression firm.

”Alright then, I will immediately return to report this to the Master.” Ba Dao nodded, stopped hesitating, knowing he couldn’t change Xia Mengdie’s mind, and instantly turned into a beam of light flying out of the office, heading south.

Xia Mengdie calmed herself, quickly made phone calls to inform Lin Guang, Yang Chuxue, and Yingzi, but concealed that Lin Mo was in the Prison Tower, afterward, she thought for a moment and dialed another number.

”Hello, is this Sister Mengdie?” A light and sweet voice came through the phone.

”Yes, is it Zi Ning?”

Xia Mengdie briefly explained the situation but did not conceal that Lin Mo was undergoing trials inside the Prison Tower.

The voice on the other end of the phone was noticeably silent for a moment, ”Xia Mengdie, Xiao Mo will definitely be fine, I believe in him.”

”I believe in him too.” Xia Mengdie smiled faintly.

”Sister Mengdie, I have to rely on you for this period. I have an important mission to carry out within the Emperor Group and can’t return for the time being,” Long Ge Yue said.

”Mm, work hard. When you come back, Sister Mengdie will treat you to a meal.”

Xia Mengdie smiled and then hung up the phone.

...

Inside the villa.

”Mengdie, what do you think happened to Xiao Mo?”

”Don’t worry, Xiao Mo is fine.”

By the afternoon, when Xia Mengdie returned to the villa, Lin Guang and Yang Chuxue were already sitting on the couch in the living room.

”Mom and Dad, don’t worry. Xiao Mo’s friend came to see me today and told me he’s still cultivating in a secret place; he’ll be back soon.” Xia Mengdie said, a relieved smile appearing on her face.

”But didn’t you say someone was going to cause trouble for Xiao Mo? Is that person really powerful?” Yang Chuxue’s expression still carried a hint of tension, her hands gripping the sofa, palms sweating slightly.

”Mengdie already said it’s nothing, Xiao Mo will be fine.” Lin Guang said sternly.

”Yes, Mom. Don’t worry, Xiao Mo has so many friends, and with the Star Sect’s help, those people won’t dare to act recklessly.” Xia Mengdie comforted, ”However, during this time, you should stay here in the villa until Xiao Mo returns.”

”Okay.” Lin Guang nodded.

Xia Mengdie said, ”I’ll go to the study to handle some things.”

With that, Xia Mengdie clicked her high heels as she walked up to the second-floor study.

Inside the study, the layout was simple, with a laptop placed on a desk.

Xia Mengdie sat down, typing on the laptop, sending email after email. These emails were sent to various media through Xia Mengdie’s connections, and the attachments were footage of people like those from the Qingxuan Sect flying.

As long as public opinion is stirred, once the Security Bureau pays attention to the Qingxuan Sect, they won’t dare to act recklessly.

Second, Xia Mengdie called Yu Fei and Guo Hu. Die Mo Pharmaceutical is now a top group in the country, with significant influence. Spreading those videos online using Die Mo Pharmaceutical’s influence and connections is the first step.

Third, Xia Mengdie had arranged for Yingzi to go to the Star Sect. If the Qingxuan Sect really wanted to wipe out the Lin Family, the power of the Star Sect could help, at least making them cautious of the Star Sect’s strength.

Fourth, the Three Great Martial Arts Schools, the military, and Lin Mo also have close ties, so the Master of Qingxuan Sect has to weigh things carefully.

After completing all these arrangements, it took five hours. After all, spreading those videos on the internet is very challenging, and Xia Mengdie had to coordinate with various departments to get the videos online.

”Whew!”

Xia Mengdie rubbed her tense temples, pursing her thin lips, ”I hope doing this can ensure the Lin Family’s safety, Xiao Mo, this is all I can do. I hope you can come out safely soon.”

...

A day passed.

The video of those from the Qingxuan Sect leaving the office by flight suddenly spread across various video platforms in Huaxia. Of course, some chose to believe it, while others considered the video a publicity stunt.

For this, there was an intense discussion online, almost surpassing the trending topic of a popular celebrity’s scandal.

”These videos must be staged for publicity. How can anyone fly?”

”No, I once heard from my friend, who said he actually saw some Superpower Users.”

”You’re bluffing; I won’t believe these videos.”

”If someone can really fly, that’d be great; then I could find a Master to learn from.”

...

The vast land of Shuzhou.

In a luxurious villa by the water.

An elderly man with long silver-gray hair sat cross-legged in the backyard of the villa, surrounded by the intoxicating fragrance of flowers and plants.

However, where the old man sat was a square with about a hundred square meters of area paved with blue stones, an ancient, mysterious array scattered across the square, casting a faint golden glow, giving off an ethereal feeling.

The old man sat at the center of the array base, where faint white spiritual energy, like silkworm threads, gathered from all directions, quickly absorbed by the array and then surged into the old man’s body.

”Master.”

At this moment, a voice broke the tranquility of the back garden.

A young man in a black suit, with exceptionally handsome features, strode along a stone path about a meter wide, walking briskly towards the old man.

The Master of Qingxuan Sect opened his eyes and slowly stood up, ”You’ve arrived.”

”Master, as per your instructions, I’ve posted on the Huaxia Martial Arts underground forum, announcing that our Qingxuan Sect is extensively recruiting disciples, offering cultivation techniques and resources.” The young man slightly bent over in a respectful salute.

”Good, you’ve done well.”

The Master of Qingxuan Sect nodded, ”As for the recruitment process, you oversee it and let two of the elders assist, only recruiting elites and not accepting any trash.”

”Master, I’m somewhat confused. Why does our Qingxuan Sect need to expand and recruit disciples upon reemerging?” The young man raised his head, a hint of doubt in his star-bright eyes.

The Master of Qingxuan Sect gazed at the young man, revealing a rare smile, ”You are my most prized disciple, with the greatest talent in my Qingxuan Sect. Now, I will tell you something. Haven’t you noticed that many dormant spirit veins on Earth are starting to awaken?”

”This, I do know, but...” The young man frowned slightly.

”With the revival of Spiritual Energy, great treasures will appear on Earth. Our Qingxuan Sect must seize time to build our strength, do you understand?” The Master of Qingxuan Sect conveyed his words through divine thought, a look of seriousness on his face.

To be continued wonderfully tomorrow.
