50: Enemies meet on a narrow road

"Lin Chen, this is very close to my home. Come on, I'll treat you to a drink."

Duan Peng said, putting his arm around Lin Chen's shoulder.

Seeing that Chen Mo's entire family had been executed, Duan Peng and the others were in extremely good spirits.

After all, if Old Li hadn't been there, they might not have made it back.

Chen Mo was the mastermind behind everything!

"Alright."

Lin Chen smiled slightly.

Xu Yang and the other two also planned to go out for a meal to celebrate.

After all, they had earned a lot of credits from this trip to the Other World!

Lin Chen was also in a very good mood.

However, there was still one person who hadn't died.

In his Mental Energy senses, Zhou Kai was staring at him from within the dense crowd.

Zhou Kai's expression was distorted at this moment, his eyes filled with hatred.

Lin Chen's gaze slowly turned towards Zhou Kai in the distance.

Zhou Kai's expression immediately tensed up, then relaxed.

He showed no fear of Lin Chen, his face revealing a hint of provocation.

He felt that Lin Chen wouldn't dare to do anything to him, especially with so many people around.

"Lin Chen, you just wait for me. One day I will step on you and torment you!" Zhou Kai thought to himself.

But Lin Chen's lips curved into an arc.

The next moment, a Formless Thunder Needle condensed and, in a blink of an eye, pierced into Zhou Kai's mind.

Lin Chen's Mental Energy was now 170 million Hz, while Zhou Kai's was only 300,000 Hz.

Gasps of surprise came from the crowd.

Zhou Kai's seven orifices bled, and his eyes were wide open.

He fell into the crowd, dead beyond dead.

Soldiers from the military immediately went to maintain order.

General Mo also noticed.

He flashed to Zhou Kai's front. A quick scan with his Mental Energy and he understood.

He glanced in Lin Chen's direction.

"Alright, everyone leave the execution ground. This person was a Heretic, and I killed him on the spot."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately left in fear.

Heretic?

Indeed, in this world, strength still speaks the loudest.

He had gained Old Li's attention and was currently the Human Federation's only Super Spiritual Mind Master.

Killing someone in such a public setting would have no consequences.

Duan Peng and the others looked at the deceased Zhou Kai, all subconsciously glancing at Lin Chen.

Duan Peng even gave Lin Chen a thumbs up.

Then, the group happily boarded the spaceship and departed.

General Mo Zhanhai, below, shook his head helplessly.

At this moment, a team leader at the Martial King Realm peak came to General Mo Zhanhai to report.

"General Mo, this student was clearly killed by a Mental Energy attack, which might involve a vendetta. What do you think..."

General Mo Zhanhai frowned.

"I said he was a Heretic, so he is a Heretic. What's with all the nonsense? Pack up and withdraw!"

The team leader nodded repeatedly, frightened.

He didn't want to anger General Mo Zhanhai.

This general was a decisive and ruthless character, especially brutal towards foreign races...

Lin Chen and the others chatted casually on their way to Modu City.

Through their conversation, Lin Chen learned that Duan Peng was the heir to the Duan family.

The Duan family, like the Chen family, was one of the five major families in Modu.

The strongest members of their families were all at the Martial King Realm peak.

The Duan family even had two Martial King Realm peak powerhouses!

Jiang Yueru's background was even more significant!

Jiang Yueru actually came from the capital, Jingdu, the central city of the Blue Star Human Federation.

She was from one of the Human Federation's three top martial arts halls—Sword Pavilion, the daughter of the head curator, Jiang Beishan.

People of the Sword Pavilion all used swords as weapons, practicing the Way of the Sword.

The sword was primarily for offense!

Powerful sword cultivators could almost always fight above their rank.

Jiang Beishan was a Martial Emperor Late Stage powerhouse, renowned in the Other World.

Jiang Yueru awakened the Martial Dao Sword Body, possessing terrifying talent in the Way of the Sword.

She was deeply cherished by Jiang Beishan.

He sent Jiang Yueru to Modu Martial University to gain experience and learn.

After all, Modu Martial University had a legendary figure—Li Yuntian.

Xu Yang also had great talent, but he was only born into an ordinary family.

The group took a spaceship to a very luxurious restaurant in Modu City—Drunken Fragrance Tower.

Duan Peng said it was his family's business and that he was treating today. They could eat and drink whatever they wanted.

"Then I won't be polite. I heard Drunken Fragrance Tower is most famous for its high-level exotic beast feast and spirit wine," Xu Yang said with a laugh.

"No problem, senior. I'll arrange the best for you," Duan Peng said generously.

Drunken Fragrance Tower had five floors, decorated in an ancient style, very similar to the ancient architecture of Lin Chen's previous life.

As soon as they entered, a woman in a red uniform, with a full figure, around 30 years old, walked up with a beaming smile.

"Young Master Duan, you're here. The private room is ready for you."

Duan Peng smiled and nodded, introducing her to everyone.

"This is Sister Hong, the manager of Drunken Fragrance Tower. Just call her Sister Hong."

Everyone politely greeted her.

Lin Chen discovered that Sister Hong was actually a Martial King Realm powerhouse, and he couldn't help but marvel at the Duan family's strength.

Sister Hong's beautiful eyes scanned the group, finally settling on Lin Chen.

"This young man must be Lin Chen. As expected, your talent is outstanding."

"You've saved Young Master Duan twice. Our family head has always wanted to thank you."

"From now on, come to Drunken Fragrance Tower and find me. Your meals will be on the house," Sister Hong said with a full smile.

"Lin Chen, don't be polite. My dad has always wanted to thank you in person," Duan Peng added.

Lin Chen smiled and nodded.

"No problem. I have a big appetite, as long as you're not afraid of me eating you into bankruptcy."

Duan Peng rolled his eyes at Lin Chen, then laughed heartily.

"It's just one store. As long as you come, brother, whether it goes bankrupt or not doesn't matter."

Sister Hong also highly valued Lin Chen. After all, he was a super genius who had cleared the ninth floor of the Martial Hall.

She herself was a Martial King Realm, so she knew what that meant.

When this young man grew up, he would definitely be a powerful figure who could stir up storms in the Human Federation!

Immediately, Duan Peng and the other three went up to the fifth floor.

There were very few private rooms on the fifth floor. Lin Chen glanced over and saw only four or five.

As they walked, Duan Peng introduced them to Lin Chen.

"The private rooms here are for wealthy and influential people."

"Reserving a private room costs at least tens of millions of federal currency."

Lin Chen couldn't help but be amazed. This was just a small business of the Duan family.

Just then, more than a dozen people walked out of a private room.

Lin Chen couldn't help but frown, a feeling of disgust welling up in his heart.

Lin Jianguo's family of three was among them!

He was very puzzled as to why these people would appear here. He was well aware of the economic situation of that family of three.

Lin Yi was actually at the Martial Disciple Realm.

He saw the family of three following behind a middle-aged man, all smiling broadly, as if they had just finished eating and were preparing to leave.

Duan Peng saw Lin Chen's bad expression and immediately asked, "Lin Chen, do you know them?"

Lin Chen recovered and said, "No, let's go."

The two groups passed each other.

At this moment, Lin Yi recognized Lin Chen.

"Lin Chen, why are you here!"

Lin Jianguo and his wife also immediately noticed Lin Chen.

Li Sufen was also startled, then smiled mockingly.

"Oh, isn't this our family's genius eldest son?"

"Tsk tsk, I heard you got into Modu Martial University, and you didn't even tell us."

Duan Peng and the others' expressions also changed slightly. They hadn't expected to meet Lin Chen's family.

However, Lin Chen seemed to be in a bad mood.

Just as Duan Peng was about to speak, Lin Chen waved his hand and said faintly to Lin Yi and the other two, "Is there something? I remember I've already severed all blood ties with you."

Li Sufen was furious at being retorted.

"You... Lin Chen, you'll regret it now."

"Lin Yi has outstanding talent and has been accepted as a disciple by the head curator of Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall, one of the Human Federation's top ten martial arts halls."

"He won't have to worry about martial arts resources in the future."

At this moment, Lin Yi, who was nearby, also laughed wildly, his expression extremely arrogant.

"Brother, today is my apprenticeship ceremony. If you kneel down and kowtow to me now to admit your mistake, I can ask my master to guide you a few times."

Lin Chen looked at Lin Yi with icy eyes, a faint killing intent emanating from him.

Lin Yi's expression changed in surprise. He quickly hid behind the leading middle-aged man, continuing to yell provocatively.

"Brother, I'm not afraid of you now. Sooner or later, I will step on you!"

The middle-aged man in the lead also watched Lin Chen with slightly cold eyes. He thought highly of his newly accepted disciple.

Lin Chen glanced at the middle-aged man, a Martial King Late Stage. He didn't take him seriously.

Looking at Lin Yi, who was hiding behind the middle-aged man, Lin Chen's tone was very calm, "Do you think you've found a backer?"

The next moment, Lin Chen disappeared from his original spot!
