Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Lin Mo furrowed his brow, hesitated, and said, "Well, I have nothing else planned for tonight, so I might as well attend the birthday of the Huo family's young lady."

"Great, Little Shi, you can show Mr. Lin around. I still have to return to the company to handle some matters. Mr. Lin, please excuse me." Huo Jiaming bowed slightly, then stood up and left the villa with his bodyguards.

"Mr. Lin, we have some villas available in our estate. I'll have someone arrange one for you," Huo Yongshi spoke and had the butler arrange accommodation for Lin Mo and Yingzi, then she also left the villa.

Growing up in a wealthy family, the little girl found it difficult to change her haughty thinking, even though she had witnessed Lin Mo's "transcendent" abilities.

Lin Mo didn't care about her attitude. He stayed at the Huo family only for the Magic Box, and in the room arranged by the butler, he sat down to meditate and cultivate with Yingzi.

Huo Yongshi drove a red sports car away from the villa, speeding along until she stopped outside a Starbucks on Xiu Shui Street, and walked inside.

"Little Shi."

At a table by the window, two beautiful girls were sitting, and upon seeing her enter, they immediately waved their hands to greet her.

Both girls had delicate oval faces, were stylishly dressed, wore refined makeup, and had bold red lips, giving off a social media influencer vibe, but their demeanor was much more sophisticated, clearly from wealthy families considering their Gucci and Chanel outfits.

"Xiao Wan, Shushu." Carrying a Burberry purse, Huo Yongshi greeted them cheerfully as she sat down.

"Little Shi, we haven't seen you in so long."

Both girls showed excited expressions.

The girl with wavy curled hair was Qi Wan, the third youngest lady of the Qi family from Ancient Capital and a renowned beauty there.

The other girl had straight chestnut hair cut to shoulder length, wearing a spaghetti strap dress that revealed her sexy collarbones. She was Gai Shu, the daughter of the Gu family.

The trio were close friends from junior and senior high school, but after Huo Yongshi went to the United Kingdom for further studies, they scarcely met.

"I've missed you too. Xiao Wan, I heard you were dating a male celebrity. Why didn't you bring him out?" Huo Yongshi asked with a smile.

"He's history now. That guy was just living off women; all he did was ask me to finance his movies. He had no talent, just good looks," Qi Wan said disdainfully.

For girls like them, choosing a boyfriend was not only about appearance; capability and talent in various aspects were the primary considerations.

"Enough about him, Little Shi, didn't you have a boyfriend overseas?" Qi Wan teased.

Huo Yongshi took a sip of her coffee, "I was busy writing papers and doing research every day. Where would I find time for a boyfriend?"

"I heard that Li Shujie was quite happy when you came back, nearly desperate to have his family propose to your family," Gai Shu covered her mouth while chuckling slyly.

In modern society, although free love is advocated, for high-status families like the Huo, Gu, and Qi families, which are deep-rooted and complex like centuries-old trees, political marriages are quite common.

Huo Yongshi frowned and said, "Shushu, stop laughing at me; you know I have no interest in him."

"The big master of the Li family is handsome, and I heard from my dad that Master Li is now a Martial God Strong Person, ranking in the top ten among the young generation of Ancient Capital," Qi Wan chimed in.

Families of their class were aware of the existence of Ancient Martial Arts and often had close relations with various Ancient Martial Arts sects and families.

"Yes, the young Li heir has already reached the level of a Martial God Strong Person at such a young age, and he will inherit the Li enterprise. A truly promising young man, yet you, Little Shi, are the only one who doesn't see him in that light," Gai Shu said with a light laugh.

"Feelings still require a bit of sensation, and I've never felt much for him," Huo Yongshi said, disinterested.

Gai Shu and Qi Wan both noticed that their friend wasn't in high spirits today, and after exchanging glances, Qi Wan said with furrowed brows, "Little Shi, you seem down today, did something unpleasant happen?"

"Yes, I ran into an annoying person." Thinking of Lin Mo's cold attitude made Huo Yongshi grit her teeth in anger.

Hearing her words, both girls looked surprised.

"Whoa, who dared to make Miss Huo angry? Do they not want to stay in the Ancient Capital anymore?" Gai Shu huffed.

It was known that the Huo family was a major family in the Ancient Capital with close ties to the military; not many could afford to offend Huo Yongshi.

Thinking of her grandfather's warning not to reveal Lin Mo's identity, she pursed her lips and said, "It was just the grandson of one of my grandfather's friends who annoyed me."

"He's not from the Ancient Capital?" questioned Qi Wan.

"Yeah, he seems to have come from Shu Province," Huo Yongshi said nonchalantly as she sipped her coffee.

Gai Shu then said, "But it's strange, Little Shi, you never get mad because of a man. Could it be that you like him?"

"How could I possibly like him?" Huo Yongshi frowned tightly. "He's probably the person I dislike the most in my lifetime. He's so arrogant it's unbearable."

Gai Shu and Qi Wan exchanged glances, becoming curious about the person Huo Yongshi was talking about, who dared to upset the treasured daughter of the Huo family.

"Tonight, we're having a party at my house, don't forget to come over early," Huo Yongshi changed the subject.

"Sure, I've already prepared your gift."

"You're not going back to the United Kingdom this time?"

"No, I plan to help my grandfather with his work. After all, he's getting on in years, and he has discussed this with me several times. It's not possible to go out and have fun anymore," Huo Yongshi said in distress.

That evening at the Huo family mansion, lights dazzled brightly. Huo Yongshi's 23rd birthday party was attended by nearly all the celebrities and politicians of the Ancient Capital. Luxury cars filled the expansive parking lot, resembling a luxury car exhibition.

That night.

Meanwhile, a shocking event took place in the Martial Arts World.

"Hey, Xiao Mo, hurry up and check the Martial Arts Forum on your computer, something big has happened," came Sima Zining's somewhat anxious and nervous voice over the phone.

Lin Mo answered the call with a frown, "What happened?"

"The Sect Master of Qingxuan Sect is coming to seek revenge on you tonight, what should we do? Should I go ask my grandfather for help and get the military involved?" There was a deep tone of concern in Sima Zining's voice.

Hearing her words, Lin Mo also frowned slightly, his expression turning grave.

Innate Strong Person?

"There's no need to involve Mr. Sima, I must handle this matter myself," Lin Mo said lightly.

If an Innate Strong Person arrived and they had to deploy the military, it would at least require the use of some superweapons. However, if the Qingxuan Sect Master decided to confront him in a crowded place, then the military's super equipment wouldn't be of use as they had to consider the safety of ordinary people.

If the two were to fight in the city, it could potentially destroy half of it.
