"Meng Die." Xia Mengdie stood up, joy apparent on her pretty face, and she quickly rushed over to hug Lin Mo, "Mo, you're not hurt, are you?"
"Your husband is so powerful, how could he get hurt?" Lin Mo said with a smile.
Hearing his words, a light blush spread across Xia Mengdie's face.
"Good, you're alright. The Bai Family didn't do anything to you, did they?" Xia Mengdie's bright eyes looked at him. Although her lips spoke without worry, her heart was more concerned about Lin Mo than anyone else.
Although Lin Mo was very strong in her heart, the worry for her loved one was the most natural thing.
Lin Mo shook his head and said, "If they had done something to me, could I have come back? The Bai Family has already been annihilated by me."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Su Family was stunned. The Bai Family had been annihilated? What did that mean?
Master Mo exclaimed, "Mr. Lin, didn't you encounter Bai Gu Cheng?"
"Bai Gu Cheng has been killed by me, and all members of the Bai Family were slain by me. Anyone who covets my wife must pay the price," Lin Mo said indifferently.
The entire hall fell into a cold silence; everyone felt as if the temperature had suddenly dropped several degrees.
Others might not understand the power of the Bai Family in Hei Province, but the Su Family did. The Bai Family had assets worth tens of billions, and their power was immense. Apart from the other four major families that could surpass them, there were even rumors that the Bai Family was the fifth largest in the Northeast.
Yet such a powerful family had been annihilated by Lin Mo!
Master Mo displayed a look of utmost respect and bowed, "Mr. Lin, immensely powerful, you are truly admirable."
Su Yongchun, Su Anshun, and others had faces flushed red, as if they had been slapped hard. They had initially ridiculed Lin Mo and even tried to force Lin Mo and Xia Mengdie apart.
Now, they were even more terrified. If it wasn't for the fact that Xia Mengdie still had the Su Family bloodline, Lin Mo might have annihilated the Su Family too.
Su Feiyue, Su Ze, Su Minmin all lowered their heads with reddened faces. In front of Lin Mo, what were their achievements worth?
However, a shadow flickered in the depths of Lin Mo's eyes. The conspiracy against Xia Mengdie was orchestrated by the Joy Sect, and the real culprit had not yet been found. If the roots of weeds aren't removed, troubles will follow.
"Die'er, why don't you return to Shanghai first? I still have some matters to take care of in the Northeast!" Lin Mo said, holding Xia Mengdie's tender hand gently.
Xia Mengdie looked at him, worry evident in her eyes: "What else do you have to deal with? Could it be that the Joy Sect will seek revenge?"
The words of Su Gongyang had reached Xia Mengdie's ears; she naturally knew that behind the Bai Family was the Joy Sect.
"Even if the Joy Sect comes, do you think I would lose to them? Don't worry about me, Die'er. I'm staying just to find some things," Lin Mo said with a smile.
"Alright then, be careful," Xia Mengdie bit her thin lips. She knew Lin Mo's character; forcefully staying in the Northeast would only hinder him, making him worry about her.
A faint sadness crossed Xia Mengdie's heart: "I'm really useless by Mo's side. If Yingzi were with him, he would have another helper."
Then Lin Mo had Su Xiaoxiao and Master Mo accompany Xia Mengdie to leave the Northeast and return to Shanghai. At least in Shanghai, Yingzi could ensure her safety.
Moreover, staying in the Northeast himself, the people from the Joy Sect wouldn't leave the Northeast to go to Shanghai to find Xia Mengdie, since their enemy was him.
Lin Mo stayed in the Northeast for another reason, not only to eliminate the trouble caused by the Joy Sect but also to search for the Falling Dragon, as the materials and treasures from a transformed Flood Dragon's body were plentiful.
"If I could use the blood, bones, and flesh of a Flood Dragon to refine a 'Flood Dragon Pill,' it could enhance my physical defense by another level," Lin Mo said with a faint smile. Although his current strength was formidable, further strengthening his physical body was undoubtedly a good thing for Lin Mo.
During the days Lin Mo stayed with the Su Family, he had left everyone trembling with fear, as Lin Mo was essentially a ticking bomb, with people from the Joy Sect possibly looking for him at any moment.
Su Yongchun didn't dare to directly drive Lin Mo away and could only accompany him cautiously.
The Northeast was known for its crisscrossing mountain ranges, abundant in Spiritual Medicine.
At this time, within a mountain range spanning hundreds of kilometers, classical villas appeared surrounded by mountains. These villas were equipped with strong barriers, invisible to satellites or anyone standing in front of them.
A middle-aged man in a suit walked into one of the villas. The villa was lavishly decorated and very comfortable in temperature, unlike the cold outside.
On the villa's couch, several layers of thin purple gauze curtains hung, vaguely revealing the inside where a man and several women were laughing and playing.
"Young Sect Master," the middle-aged man stood seven or eight meters away from the couch and respectfully bowed his head.
The laughter behind the curtains gradually quieted down, and a pale, bone-like hand pulled the curtains aside slightly, revealing a glimpse inside. An enchanting and beautiful woman wearing a thin silk garment was seen, and a young man was lying shirtless on one of her white thighs, while another woman next to him held a Night Light Cup, feeding him wine.
"Did the Bai Family bring me that woman?" The man on the couch spoke.
The middle-aged man in the suit, with his head lowered, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Sect Master, the Bai Family has been wiped out, and the Sixth Elder is dead."
Once this was said, the previously laughing women quieted down, and the young man lying on the woman's thighs narrowed his eyes, which emitted streaks of Cold Light.
The middle-aged man, with sweat on his forehead, continued, "Young Sect Master, it's my fault for not investigating the woman's background thoroughly. I only knew she was related to the Su Family by marriage, not expecting her husband to be Lin Mo."
"Lin Mo? I've heard this name before, seems familiar," the Young Sect Master raised his head and frowned slightly.
"He is currently the most discussed person on the Dark Web, with many unaware of his true identity," the middle-aged man replied.
This middle-aged man named Gu Yu had been sourcing women for the Young Sect Master outdoors. He had once gone to Shanghai six months ago and, upon discovering Xia Mengdie's special constitution, began plotting to capture her. He had not expected Lin Mo to appear unexpectedly and disrupt his plans.
"Both the Fifth and Sixth Elders died by his hand. Is he a Martial Arts Master or a Magic Master?" the Young Sect Master finally showed a hint of concern.
"According to our information, he seems to practice Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts, likely a Martial Arts Master and a Magic Master," Gu Yu mused.
"Why fuss over an enemy? Just send someone to slaughter him," the woman holding the wine cup, exposing her snowy shoulders and speaking with sultry eyes, said.
Slap!
With a slap, the Young Sect Master hit the woman in the face and scolded, "When I'm dealing with matters, no one is allowed to interrupt."
The group of women instantly fell silent.
The middle-aged man continued, "However, Young Sect Master, although he killed Elder Bai, he might have been injured. He is still at the Su Family and hasn't left yet."
"Oh, to be so young and yet a Martial God Level expert, a Magic Master—if he does not have any backing, then he must have received a formidable legacy," the Young Sect Master held his wine glass, took a sip, and his eyes gleamed with malice, saying, "Have him killed for me; I want all his possessions, and his woman as well. A Nine Yin Body is too rare to encounter. With that woman as my tripod furnace, what can stop my Divine Skill from advancing?"
"Yes, Young Sect Master, I will immediately organize experts," Gu Yu said before leaving the room.
