"You..." Lightning gritted his teeth.
"Or we could continue to fight, you can test my strength again." Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, appearing harmless, but it was this demeanor that made Lightning dare not act rashly.
"Fine, it was wrong for the War God Temple to insult a strong man this time."
After a moment of silence, Lightning finally nodded.
In the Ice Plateau, after the two stood for a moment, they turned into two flowing lights and flew towards Snow City.
In the War God Temple's conference hall. Among the ten War Gods, only Jins fell, and everyone sat in the temple, Hurricane's face was extremely ugly, clenching his fists and slamming hard on the steel-made conference table, making a bang sound, "When the Councilman acts, he will surely kill that guy."
Crack.
Just after Hurricane had vented, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and everyone turned their heads, seeing a figure entering from outside.
Among them, one figure was shrouded in a black robe, seemingly like a Black Hole, as if all the surrounding light was being devoured by him, causing the light to distort.
"Councilman."
The War Gods at the table all stood up, their faces showing solemnity.
But everyone was shocked to find a young man with tied hair and black pupils standing beside the man in a black robe.
"Why are you all so surprised to see me?"
Lin Mo sat back in the chair with a Heavy Sword on his back, looking carefree.
"Councilman? How could he..." Hurricane widened his eyes with a look of resentment like Poison Snake glaring fiercely at Lin Mo, "How could this guy appear in the War God Temple's conference room?"
"Are you questioning me?"
Lightning frowned, with strong True Yuan swirling around him, speaking coldly.
"I dare not." Hurricane formed his hands into fists, lowering his head.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a strong wave of Primordial Energy struck Hurricane's chest, sending him flying like a cannonball directly against the conference room wall; the wall's transparent Protective Shield rippled like water waves, and then his body rebounded to the ground, spraying blood from his mouth.
In the previous battle, Hurricane had already been injured by Lin Mo, and now he couldn't withstand the power of Lin Mo's palm.
The other War Gods glanced at each other; with the First Councilman still here, it wasn't their place to speak.
"This is the price for insulting the strong; today I give you face for the First Councilman, didn't kill him, but shattered one of his meridians." Lin Mo said calmly, as if he had done a trivial thing.
"Councilman."
Hurricane clutched his chest, looking painfully at Lightning.
"Get out. In this world, the strong are kings. Since you offended a strong person, take it as punishment, if you don't want to leave, you can die here." Lightning said coldly, without even a glance at Hurricane.
"Someone, take Councilman Hurricane to the hospital."
Po Bing frowned, calling out.
Only then did two bodyguards enter and carry Hurricane out of the conference room.
Adam Vite looked at Lin Mo, nodded gently. Adam Vite wasn't a fool; he knew that by crippling Hurricane right after arrival, Lin Mo was helping him. If Lin Mo had killed Hurricane, given the subtle relationship between Adam Vite and Lin Mo, it would undoubtedly lead to criticism in the future.
Now that Jins was gone and Hurricane could never become a councilman in the future, with Adam Vite's influence in the War God Temple, he could easily secure the position of Second Councilman.
Lin Mo did this only to return a favor to the Lanbo Family, after all, his disciple had been staying at their house for three years, eating and living for free.
"Councilman Lightning, the items I want are listed on this paper. I will leave Snow City tomorrow." Lin Mo took out a paper filled with various materials.
Lightning opened his hand to absorb the paper, glanced at it and frowned deeply, "Lin, your demands... are excessive."
"Councilman, I know the Mercenary Group and the War God Temple's capabilities, these are trivial for you, tomorrow I'll be waiting for you." Lin Mo smiled, then stood up and walked out of the conference room.
"Councilman..."
Po Bing stood up, furrowing his brows.
The War God Temple had never been oppressed like this; other War Gods showed complex expressions.
"Prepare for him, let him leave quickly." Lightning snorted coldly.
"Alright then." Po Bing nodded helplessly.
Everyone was silent, perhaps in the previous battle, Lightning had suffered a lot, otherwise, it wouldn't have been such an attitude.
...
The next day.
At the entrance of the Lanbo Family villa.
"Councilman said he isn't feeling well and can't come personally, he asked me to hand over the items to you." Adam Vite smiled, handing several Ice and Snow Space Rings to Lin Mo.
"Is that so? Let the Councilman take care of his health, I'll visit him given the chance."
Lin Mo tossed the Ice and Snow Space Rings into his own Space Ring, scanning them with Divine Thought to quickly check the items inside.
"I'm afraid the Councilman isn't too welcoming of you." Adam Vite laughed heartily.
"I'm off."
Lin Mo smiled.
"Goodbye, Young Master Lan Bo." Yingzi also waved her small hand towards Lan Bo, then turned her head and walked alongside Lin Mo towards the exit of Snow City.
"Miss Yingzi, feel free to come back to Snow City to play someday, goodbye." Lan Bo waved wistfully until the two disappeared from his sight, he heaved a deep sigh.
"My child, there will always be some things in life you can't obtain; learn to accept, learn to grow stronger." Adam Vite patted Lan Bo's shoulder, comforting him.
...
"Some things, only appearing at a specific time, will be forever remembered, in the future, no one can replace..." Yingzi murmured.
"What are you mumbling about?"
Lin Mo looked at Yingzi, somewhat puzzled.
"Nothing, just rambling." Yingzi grinned, revealing a row of white teeth, her eyes crinkling in a radiant smile.
"Alright, let's go find Shen Feng."
Lin Mo furrowed his brows; originally he wanted to find the Water Essence in the War God Temple, but it seemed the temple didn't have any such Treasure, so he had to go find Shen Feng to figure something out.
"Okay." Yingzi took a deep breath.
Lin Mo appeared in the darkest period of her life; back then, she and her mother were struggling, facing poverty, illness, cold, and hunger... the entire world seemed shrouded in darkness.
Later, Lin Mo's appearance was like igniting a flame of hope in her dark and despairing world.
In every special period, the people who appear will have a special meaning, and later, they become irreplaceable.
It's like one can never forget their first love who moved them even if they meet someone better later on, that feeling remains irreplaceable.
When Shen Feng left Snow City, he gave his address to Yingzi; however, since Yingzi had been waiting for Lin Mo in Snow City, she never went there... the location was in Saint Petersburg.
