Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

As this icy voice echoed, a young man in a long robe slowly stepped out from the crowd. The aura emanating from him was clearly a level higher than Wu Yu’s, and his sharp, eagle-like eyes stared fixedly at Lin Mo, with cold light flickering in his pupils.

”Brother Lei, you, you must teach this guy a lesson!” Wu Yu, who had been helped up, said urgently, his eyes filled with intense hatred.

”You rest aside for now and take this elixir for a good recuperation.” Lei Ying frowned slightly, waved his palm, and threw out a green pill. Wu Yu caught it in his hand, nodded, and retreated to the side. Upon swallowing the elixir, the mild and pure medicinal power spread throughout his body instantly, alleviating much of the pain. However, his eyes, like venomous scorpions, continued to gaze with hatred at the black-haired, black-eyed young man in the center of the square, the cold light in his pupils growing ever sharper. Four days ago, he had been severely humiliated by Lin Mo on this same square. Unexpectedly, today he had been slapped by Lin Mo in front of everyone, causing him to lose face in front of his fellow disciples. His hatred for Lin Mo was intense, wishing nothing more than to peel off his skin and cut off his limbs to quench the hatred in his heart. But at this critical moment, Lin Mo stood proudly in the center of the square, with an indifferent expression. He did not change his demeanor with the appearance of Lei Ying, raised his head, and met Lei Ying’s gaze directly, without the slightest fear of the sharpness and edge in his eyes. Their gazes seemed almost tangible, with thunder clashing in midair, sparking fiercely.

”I am Lei Ying of the Five Primus Sect. Your prowess is extraordinary and admirable.” Lei Ying suddenly smiled and cupped his hands towards Lin Mo.

This unexpected change left not only Lin Mo, but also those spectating, somewhat baffled. Lei Ying was not supposed to directly confront Lin Mo? Why was he being so polite?

”Lin Tanyu.”

A mere two-word response came from Lin Mo. Lei Ying chuckled, ”Though you only have a high-level Star Sea cultivation realm, your combat power is already exceptional among your peers. If you were to ascend to the ranks of Star System level experts, I might not be able to match you. But… advancing to the Star System level is extremely difficult.” From his words, despite complimenting Lin Mo’s invincibility within the high-level Star Sea realm, the underlying message was clear: while Lin Mo was impressive, he was still at a high-level Star Sea cultivation realm. Without reaching the Star System level expert realm, he would always be somewhat inferior. ”Lin Tanyu, my sect would like to clear any misunderstandings with my junior brother. The Five Primus Sect is a major sect, eager for talent. If Lin Tanyu is willing to join the Five Primus Sect, all past grievances can be erased, and Lin Tanyu can gain our resources to aid in an early advancement to the ranks of Star System level experts.” Lei Ying squinted slightly, smiling. Upon hearing this, a wave of astonished murmurs spread through the crowd, revealing that the outcome was far beyond everyone’s expectations. The Five Primus Sect had always been domineering; when did they become so accommodating?

”Brother, he hit me, and took my space ring, damaged my Corpse Master, he cannot be let off so easily!” Wu Yu was stunned for a moment, then roared angrily.

Lei Ying turned his head, glaring fiercely at Wu Yu, whose face turned purple as he bit down on his teeth, ultimately closing his mouth reluctantly.

”The Five Primus Sect recruits talents?” Lin Mo sneered, ”Could it be you want to use me to refine the Nether Origin Stone?”

Lin Mo was not foolish. He was merely at a high-level Star Sea cultivation realm. Even though he demonstrated decent combat power, it hadn’t reached the level of making the Five Primus Sect ’respect talents.’ In these days in Ruins City, Lin Mo’s repeated exchanges of Nether Origin Stones had already attracted the attention of the Five Primus Sect. His speed in refining and purifying the Nether Origin Stone was miraculous, and the sect’s recruitment was no more than an attempt to seize the secrets of how he refined the stone. ”I, Lin Tanyu, am accustomed to roaming freely, not used to joining any sect… Especially not a despicable sect like the Five Primus Sect.” Lin Mo cast a glance at the injured Hu Kuang, snorted coldly, ”Capturing my friends to force me out, such an act, does it deserve to be called a major sect?” His words stirred up another wave of discussions within the crowd, and the faces of Hu Kuang, Liu Hong, and Wei Dao changed slightly. If Lin Mo joined the Five Primus Sect, he could receive protection and avoid disaster, but these words have almost completely offended the sect.

Crack, crack… From Lei Ying’s slightly squinted eyes shot two cold beams like mysterious ice, his palms gradually clenched into fists, joints crackling crisply, and his whole body’s True Yuan suddenly surged out. A Star System level early-stage expert, clearly the highest-level cultivator in this Ruins City.

In an instant, the overwhelming aura swept out, causing those around to retreat backward, creating an open space.

At the center, only Lei Ying and Lin Mo remained.

”No one has dared insult my Five Primus Sect like this, now hand over your treasures and the method for refining the Nether Origin Stone, perhaps I might spare you a complete corpse.” A ruthless curve spread from the corner of Lei Ying’s mouth as he slowly extended his right palm.

Lin Mo certainly exhibited strong capabilities by repelling Wu Yu, but he was still a level lower than Lei Ying, and naturally didn’t consider Lin Mo a real opponent. ”Want the method for refining the Nether Origin Stone and my treasures? It depends on whether your sect members have the ability, otherwise, they’re just like this guy, an incompetent, and the sect might as well be called the Pig Dog Sect.”

Lin Mo sneered, indicating Wu Yu.

”You…” Wu Yu gritted his teeth with hatred, his eyes almost tearing apart. ”Fine, fine, you dare to call our sect members incompetent… such arrogance.” Lei Ying’s face darkened further, faintly revealing a sinister aura. ”Even if you hand over everything now, I will still kill you, to show others the consequences of daring to insult our sect, to set an example.”

Boom, boom, boom… Condensed True Yuan instantly gathered at Lei Ying’s right palm, a stream of black fog emerging and swirling around it, then a palm strike was launched, black fog trailing into threads, surging forward in a roar, a giant handprint spanning a zhang wide, thundering as it traveled towards Lin Mo’s chest.

Lin Mo was about to activate the Beast Transformation Map and initiate a counterattack when suddenly his expression changed. A figure appeared beforehand and smashed the palm formed by the black fog with a fist, dispersing it into faint black fog.

”I didn’t expect members of the Five Primus Sect to only rely on numbers? Bullying the weak?” A voice with slight disdain commented.

Lin Mo suddenly laughed, ”Brother Xue.”

Standing in front of Lin Mo was none other than someone he recognized, Xue Chen.

”Brother Lin Tanyu, I didn’t expect that the one offending the Five Primus Sect was you, haha.” Xue Chen also laughed heartily. Accompanying Xue Chen were Le Qian and Jing Xiao. Recently, news had spread in Ruins City about someone injuring the Five Primus Sect’s disciple Wu Yu and their impending revenge. Naturally, Xue Chen and others heard this information and came to check it out, not expecting to find the one in conflict with the sect was their acquaintance Lin Mo.
