92: Chapter 92 When apologizing, you should...

Jiangnan Prefecture, Weiyang Street.

Before dawn, the servants of the Mo Family had already risen to work. They swept the streets clean, cleared away debris from both sides, and laid down red carpets.

The main gate of the Mo Family estate was opened early. A large crowd stood outside to welcome the guests. The person in the lead had a face as fair as jade and a dignified appearance; he was none other than the Mo Family's eldest Young Master, Mo Yunzhu's own brother, Mo Lanting.

This man was no unknown figure; he was a great expert ranked seventh on the Heroes Ranking, known in the Jianghu as the "Star-Plucking Young Master."

It could be said that, with the exception of the Mo Family Clan Chief who cared about saving face, all the important figures of the Mo Family were present.

"They're here! They're here!"

In the distance, a delicate-looking servant called out. Immediately, the honor guard stationed on both sides began to play solemn and respectful music, while several house servants lit expensive incense, shrouding the entire street in a layer of white mist, as if entering the sacred grounds of immortals.

"Brother Lin, what a grand..."

"Shh! Keep quiet, don't look around, keep your eyes forward, and don't act like a bumpkin!"

Lin Yuan used voice transmission to admonish He Yiming, while he himself kept his gaze forward, a faint smile on his lips.

I have to say, compared to Sects, these noble Families really know how to put on a show.

Once I become the Sect Master of the Liuyun Sect...

"Brother Lin, I have admired you for a long time. It is an honor to meet you today. Congratulations on becoming number one on the Heroes Ranking."

Lin Yuan waved his hand dismissively. "Whatever number one on the Heroes Ranking, Martial God of the Southern Wilderness, or the number one person of the younger generation in the Southern Wilderness—they are all just empty titles."

"I have no interest in them. Because for me, the happiest time was before I made it onto the Heroes Ranking. Back then, I could do whatever I wanted without being burdened by fame, unlike now."

"Many people are watching me—in the Yue Kingdom, in neighboring countries, and perhaps even in other continents. So, I must act in a way that befits the number one person of the younger generation, which means I cannot fail. You know, maintaining an undefeated record is a very difficult thing."

The expression on Mo Lanting's face instantly crumbled.

How annoying, a person who loves to show off—especially when it isn't me.

"The two of you, please come inside for a chat."

He struggled to maintain the elegance of a noble Family Disciple as he invited them inside.

Lin Yuan and his companion entered the famous Mo Family estate, accompanied by several Family Elders and direct-line Disciples.

After they were seated and tea was served, Mo Lanting got to the point.

"I presume my sister has already told you. The reason I invited you both here today is that someone requested it, and I couldn't refuse, so I had no choice but to do so."

Lin Yuan said, "Since I accepted the invitation, it means I have no intention of pursuing the matter further. However, why is the main person in question not here?"

When apologizing, you have to expose your chest; that is common sense.

Considering Prince Yu's gender, that part isn't necessary, but surely he could at least show his face.

Mo Lanting smiled bitterly. "It's just because Brother Lin's reputation is so widespread that my relative is truly afraid."

"If he doesn't even have that much courage, I suggest he stop practicing martial arts altogether."

Lin Yuan took a sip of tea and said indifferently.

"This—"

Just as Mo Lanting was feeling awkward, a noisy commotion suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Highness, you cannot go! If he develops the intent to kill, you'll be dead for sure!"

"That's right, Your Highness! Outside, the Mo Family Clan Chief might be able to intervene, but once you are in front of him, your life and death will be in his hands. Please think twice!"

"The two of you, say no more. Before being a Prince, I am a Martial Artist! It is exactly as he said; if I don't even have this much courage, I might as well retire to the mountains and forests early."

Soon, a young man wearing a bright yellow robe walked in from outside, followed by two people.

They were Lady Liu, whom they had met before, and the half-demon Hajimi.

The latter had been treated with a Medicinal Pill and had returned to normal.

"I am the Sixth Prince of the Yue Kingdom, Prince Yu, Yu Bingqing. Greetings, Your Excellency Lin Yuan."

He paused, then continued, "Previously, I did not know your identity and caused much offense. I hope we can let this pass and turn hostility into friendship."

Lin Yuan looked at him. Hajimi, standing behind him, immediately had his hair stand on end, instinctively arching his back.

Can you even enter the Spined Dragon stance when facing an expert who can kill you in an instant?

Hajimi, you fellow!

Lin Yuan smiled faintly. "You didn't offend me. If you want to apologize, you should apologize to him."

He pointed to He Yiming beside him.

Prince Yu was quite straightforward; he didn't say anything nonsensical about insults or dignity.

"I shouldn't have kidnapped your Family and sent people to hunt you down. Please forgive me; I am willing to compensate for all losses."

He Yiming quickly said.

"It's fine. These are common struggles between Martial Artists; it's nothing."

"Disaster should not involve Family. I did wrong, so I should be punished. Later, I will..."

Before he could finish speaking, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the door.

"What a Lin Yuan! Bullying people all the way to the head of my Royal Family—do you think you are Sect Leader Qin?"

Immediately, a middle-aged Martial Artist with a dragon-like gait and tiger-like steps burst in.

"Imperial Uncle Tiandu?"

Prince Yu's expression changed drastically. He looked at Lin Yuan and said anxiously, "It's not, this wasn't arranged by me..."

"Say no more. I just came out of closed-door cultivation not long ago and heard about your situation from my niece Baoyue. Hmph, as a descendant of the Royal Family, to bow your head to a subject is simply a disgrace to the Royal dignity."

Yu Tiandu scolded Prince Yu, then looked at Lin Yuan.

"Recently, everyone has been talking about you. You have quite a reputation! Young man, number one on the Heroes Ranking, Martial God of the Southern Wilderness—what bold words! I just don't know if your strength is worthy of this fame!"

He erupted with all his True Qi, revealing his cultivation of the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm without a doubt.

In his view, third level of the Spirit Sea Realm against the first level—the advantage was his.

"Sigh!"

Lin Yuan sighed.

"No matter what I achieve, there will always be people jumping out to seek death. It seems I am still not strong enough; I can only be called the strongest, not invincible."

The strongest means one's strength is unrivaled among their generation, but challengers still exist.

While invincible means not even a challenger would appear; no one would even dare to harbor such a thought.

"Too much nonsense! Let this old man teach you a lesson on behalf of your teachers."

Yu Tiandu struck out ferociously, his powerful True Qi hissing and crackling, almost solidifying into substance.

Prince Yu's expression changed drastically. "Your Excellency Lin Yuan, please show mercy. My Imperial Uncle is simple-minded and doesn't understand worldly affairs!"

He was one step away from saying that his Imperial Uncle was an idiot.

Lin Yuan said, "Rest assured, I am not some Devil King who kills people."

The Mo Family direct-line Disciples on the side watched the conflict with a composed, unbothered attitude.

They even secretly commented using voice transmission.

"How many moves do you think it will take for Lin Yuan to take down Yu Tiandu?"

"Ten moves, maybe? After all, he is a third-level Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist."

"Three moves! Haven't you heard that he even killed a Creation Realm Martial Artist?"

"That rumor seems to be exaggerated; he used a secret treasure from the Liuyun Sect, it wasn't a solo kill."

"Regardless, we finally get to see his power. It's a good chance to analyze his specialty."

Under the gaze of the Mo Family Disciples.

They saw Lin Yuan pick up his teacup and suddenly splash the tea inside. It was like a galaxy, dazzling and brilliant, with a sense of vast, boundless depth.

It was clearly just a cup of tea, yet it contained an inexplicable power, knocking Yu Tiandu flying with a single strike, making him go away even faster than he had arrived.

The Mo Family direct-line Disciples were instantly petrified, standing motionless.

No way, a cup of tea? Just a cup of tea?

You didn't go up and throw a few punches, or use your skilled Imperial Dragon Qi?

A cup of tea defeated a third-level Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist.

How are we supposed to analyze this?!

From now on, if we encounter Lin Yuan in battle, we should just give up.
