Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Even though I’ve seen you once, I don’t know any Xia Mengdie, nor do I know you.” Luo Lianxin’s eyes were as calm as a still lake, without a ripple of emotion.

This sentence struck Lin Mo’s heart like a heavy hammer, causing his breath to catch.

”Really? You’re not Xia Mengdie?” Lin Mo’s lips curled up into a smile, ”Xinyue, come here.”

Zhou Xinyue heard his words, her figure lightly drifted over, landing next to him.

”Mr. Lin, what’s going on?” Zhou Xinyue looked at Lin Mo, then at Luo Lianxin, also feeling quite puzzled, as to her understanding, Lin Mo was not someone who would lose his mind over beauty.

Lin Mo did not finish speaking, he suddenly wrapped his arm around Zhou Xinyue’s slender waist and gave her a quick peck on the cheek like a dragonfly touching water.

Zhou Xinyue’s delicate body stiffened, and in an instant, two blushes like peach blossoms rose on her cheeks, her eyes widened, and her mind went blank.

Bang!

Suddenly, a condensed force of primordial power struck Lin Mo’s chest, causing him to fly backward through the air, the one who acted being none other than Luo Lianxin.

”If you’re not qualified to compete for the treasure of the Ice Emperor Relics, then don’t get in the way here. If you want to be affectionate, go elsewhere.” Luo Lianxin frowned slightly, speaking coldly.

Lin Mo wiped a sliver of glaring blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, but a faint smile lingered on his face. He was completely certain that Luo Lianxin was indeed Xia Mengdie, and she hadn’t lost her memory of him; only he didn’t know why she wouldn’t acknowledge him.

”What’s with this guy? Is he crazy? He got hit but he’s still smiling?”

”Tsk tsk, I thought I was already a romance expert, turns out there’s always someone better, like a building outside a building!”

The hushed whispers reverberated.

”Holy Daughter, this shameless scoundrel dares to offend your eyes, allow me to kill him.” A woman from the Ice Origin Palace, her eyebrows raised, contemplated and said.

”No need, the Great Demon Palace is still here, let’s not forget our purpose.” Luo Lianxin shook her head slightly.

Suddenly, Fu Mo from the Great Demon Palace burst into hearty laughter, ”The Holy Daughter of the Ice Origin Palace is indeed unparalleled in charm, to think someone is so infatuated with the Holy Daughter that they’re unafraid of death, truly rare, truly rare indeed.”

Luo Lianxin cast him a light glance, not responding.

At this moment, the square suddenly began to tremble, as if an earthquake or a tsunami, this trembling lasted only a few seconds before disappearing, while everyone focused their minds, staring at the square’s ground. From the ravines on the ground, golden liquid suddenly flowed, quickly filling all the crevices on the square, emitting a hazy golden glow.

Soon, these hazy golden lights covered the square, making it seem as if everyone was immersed in a golden ocean, with a warm feeling.

”The treasure inside the Ice Emperor Relics is about to appear!”

At the center of the square, thousands of stone pillars also burst forth with golden light, and the beasts engraved on the stone pillars seemed as if they were about to awaken.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The golden light surged from the stone pillars, rushing towards the sky, thousands of golden beams shot upwards into the sky, creating a magnificent and strange sight that could be clearly seen from afar.

This strange phenomenon continued for an hour, and the golden light from thousands of stone pillars was absorbed into the sky, forming a golden vortex-like presence, while the glowing gold on the ground transformed into countless stars shooting into the sky toward the golden vortex.

That golden vortex resembled a chessboard, while the nodes of the ravine marks on the ground were like chess pieces, all sweeping up to the sky, adorning the golden vortex.

After another hour passed, all the golden light disappeared, and the sky now displayed a golden chessboard, with one line of gold connecting to another, forming a complex and ancient pattern, exuding a vast and distant aura.

Everyone’s eyes simultaneously became burning hot, knowing that this was the place where they could obtain the Ice Emperor Relics.

Roar!

Roar roar!

But before anyone could react, violent and low beastly roars shattered the tranquility of the square. Dozens of beasts came back to life from the stone pillars, pouncing onto the ground, kicking up dust and letting out various strange hissing sounds.

These beasts emitted an extremely ferocious aura, their eyes turning red upon seeing humans, directly charging toward cultivators.

A mid-level Star Sea cultivator standing on the outskirts immediately turned to flee, but a beast resembling a hyena with the head of a crocodile had already swooped over, its claws tearing through the air, splitting the cultivator’s body in half, blood splattering.

In such a situation, piercing cries instantly resounded, along with an endless wave of beasts emerging from the stone pillars as if they were continuous sea waters, within moments the square had over ten thousand beasts with not insignificant cultivation, the weakest being at the Star System Level Early Stage.

It seems, this square also possesses a protective array, once activated, not only the treasure appears but also a beast tide emerges.

”Saint Heir, quickly enter the relics, we’ll hold them off here!”

”Holy Daughter, we’ll hold them here, quickly go to the relics and take the treasure.”

The Great Demon Palace and the Ice Origin Palace also began to take action, after all, these people were in the Star System Level High Realm, easily able to handle these beasts, but the sheer quantity of beasts made advancing extremely difficult.

As for those with weaker cultivation, not to mention, they turned and fled at top speed, but many unlucky ones died under the beasts’ claws, becoming their meals.

”Xinyue, quickly get out of here.”

Lin Mo smashed a rhinoceros-like beast’s head with a punch, then his Divine Thought moved, and with a whirl, hundreds of Star Feather Insects scattered everywhere flew over, forming a protective shield around Zhou Xinyue, assisting her in breaking through the beast tide.

”Mr. Lin, and you?” Zhou Xinyue frowned, her face pale, yet she saw Lin Mo actually charging toward the beasts.

”I can’t leave her behind.” Lin Mo’s voice was faint, coming from nowhere.

Lin Mo held the Xuanyuan Sword, its sword light flashed as another beast fell, but the beasts were too many, nearly piled up one upon another. Lin Mo fought valiantly, his figure quickly leaping, heading toward the center of the array.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three road-blocking beasts’ massive bodies collapsed, Lin Mo’s eyes turned red, staring at the array at the square center, crushing a beast’s head underfoot, his figure like a phantom flitted forward. The Great Demon Palace and Ice Origin Palace were busy clearing out the surrounding beasts, apparently not expecting someone to dare charge into this beast tide.

In this moment, the Great Demon Palace and Ice Origin Palace couldn’t stop him, helplessly watching as that black silhouette dashed into the light circle at the center of the array, and the figure flickered slightly, and then disappeared.

Suddenly, Lin Mo, gaining consciousness again, found himself in a Dark Void, where small points of light twinkled like fireflies in the deep mountains in summer, but these weren’t fireflies. They were spheres of light emitting a brilliant rainbow glow like bubbles, each sphere dozens of feet large, and spread out in their thousands.
