Chapter 4000: Chapter 4019: No Matter Who You Are, If You’re Not Convinced, Let’s Fight!

Chu Zhou hadn’t found a suitable excuse yet when Mo Shuyan arrived with Secretary Bai.

Chu Zhou turned around and saw them, his expression changed slightly: "Lord Mo?"

Mo Shuyan’s gaze swept the surroundings, looking at Lin Chen who seemed unscathed, and then at the Yan family sprawled all over the ground, his eyes showing a look of shock.

Did he actually succeed?

In such a short time, he brought down the entire Yan family?

Lin Chen has become so strong now?

Or perhaps, he relied on those two Sky Wolf Battle Armors?

Only deployed two units?

Mo Shuyan restrained his inner shock and greeted Chu Zhou: "Lord Chu, you are here too?"

Chu Zhou asked coldly: "What brings Lord Mo here, to protect them?"

Mo Shuyan wore a formal expression: "I heard that Lin Chen’s family was kidnapped while shopping, so I hurried over to check it out. Lord Chu, the security in your Frost Cold City is quite lacking; even in the most bustling mall center, there can be kidnappings..."

Chu Zhou was immediately quite embarrassed, wasn’t this a public slap in the face?

Chu Zhou said in a deep voice: "Lin Chen has already rescued his family, but he destroyed the Yan family’s furnaces. This matter is of great importance, what do you think we should do?"

Mo Shuyan nodded: "Great importance, are you referring to the kidnapping incident? This certainly deserves a thorough investigation and strict punishment. Only with heavy penalties will others take warning, and only then will such things not happen again."

Chu Zhou looked at Mo Shuyan pretending to be ignorant, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Mo, I’m referring to Lin Chen and his group’s destruction of the Yan family’s furnaces. You should know how important the furnaces are to warriors; destroying them is no less than killing them!"

"But they’re all alive, aren’t they?"

Mo Shuyan looked indifferently at the Yan family members lying on the ground: "Allowing one’s family to commit crimes and harm many innocent people, such families should have long been eradicated. Simply destroying their strength is much too merciful."

"Lord Chu, from the tone of your voice, do you think Lin Chen and his group were wrong and want to intervene on behalf of the Yan family?"

Chu Zhou felt a jolt internally as he heard Mo Shuyan make no secret of his words.

With Mo Shuyan’s stance so clearly favoring Lin Chen and the others, it’s apparent that today any attempt to target Lin Chen and his group would be difficult.

In terms of moral and legal grounds, there’s nothing against them, not to mention in terms of military strength.

Just those two Sky Wolf Battle Armors alone are enough to deter anyone.

"So what should be done about today’s incident?"

"Forget about it!"

Mo Shuyan coldly tossed out two words, leaving Chu Zhou both angry and helpless.

"I know you have close ties with the Yan family, but when someone does something wrong and gets beaten, they have to stand firm. If Lin Chen didn’t have enough strength, his family, along with Lin Chen and his group, would not only have been humiliated by Yan Xiaoxiao, but would ultimately have perished."

"According to Lin Chen’s Soul Search performed on Yan Xiaoxiao’s bodyguard, similar incidents have happened not just once, but many times, with many innocent people dying at her hands."

"Instead of concerning yourself with the destruction of their furnaces, Lord Chu, you might as well investigate the truth and seek justice for those innocents."

"I’ll take them away. If the Yan family has any complaints about today’s brawl incident, they can come to me."

"Lord Chu, farewell."

Mo Shuyan decisively threw out a few words and said to Lin Chen: "Back to the hotel."

Lin Chen summoned the Linglong Tower, retrieved the two Sky Wolf Battle Armors, then left with Yao Xuanji following Mo Shuyan.

Chu Zhou was both angry and pained by Mo Shuyan’s ridicule, but there is nothing he could do—Lin Chen’s powers are formidable, and they stood on the side of reason too.

Arguing wouldn’t work, and fighting wouldn’t give him an advantage either.

So what’s the point of saying anything?

Chu Zhou sighed, waved his hand: "Bring them all inside, I’ll talk to them."

How Chu Zhou would talk with the Yan family, Lin Chen neither knew nor cared.

If dissatisfied, then fight!

Lin Chen and his group have now established themselves in Jinghai City, greatly increased their strength, and obtained legitimate status in the Federation, so under normal circumstances, others would find it difficult to deal with them.

Conversely, if Lin Chen and his group wanted to deal with someone, it would be all too easy.

The power of Lin Chen and his group may not be the strongest, but it is already enough to command respect.

Just how arrogant had the Yan family become?

Our group didn’t even use their full strength to bring the Yan family down, so as long as we don’t go against the official power, Lin Chen doesn’t think anyone could beat them in private.

Without a word, they returned to the hotel.

In Mo Shuyan’s room, Mo Shuyan smiled and said: "Sit, what would you like to drink?"

"Water will do."

Mo Shuyan got ice water from the small refrigerator, handed it to them, then sat down across from Lin Chen and Yao Xuanji, smiling: "You certainly surprised me today." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Thank you for running over here to back us up, otherwise there might still have been some trouble."

Mo Shuyan waved his hand: "You’re in the right, you didn’t kill anyone, and have such power. Even if Chu Zhou wanted to target you, he’d have to think twice."

"In front of sufficient strength, a City Lord and anyone else makes no difference."

Lin Chen naturally understood what this meant, if Chu Zhou wanted to face off against them, they surely wouldn’t surrender and would reciprocate; after fighting, Chu Zhou would have to face their retribution.

Don’t be fooled into thinking he’s merely a City Lord, if he lacks strength, Lin Chen could easily eliminate him quietly.

In the cultivation world, the strong rule, and even an Emperor of the human world must kneel in submission. The Federation, though with laws ensured, fundamentally still places power above all else.

Why was the Yan family so formidable? Isn’t it because they had so many strong warriors?

Because they had numerous and powerful warriors, the Yan family could hold such extensive assets without being annexed and maintained their high status.

Now the industries remain, but many of the Yan family’s seventh-level warriors have been incapacitated, and we’ll see if they continue to be as mighty.

Strength is the core of maintaining dignity and power.

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "If I had a choice, I would prefer to do good business, make money, and live leisurely."

Mo Shuyan smiled: "Can you tell me, what level of strength are you at now?"

Lin Chen answered: "Seventh-level peak."

Mo Shuyan widened his eyes: "In two months, you reached the peak?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Maybe it’s because my physique is special, my physical condition allows for relatively fast cultivation improvement."

Mo Shuyan suddenly understood: "No wonder you have confidence to deal with the Yan family, no wonder the Yan family was defeated by you all, unable to escape, it seems your combat power in battle outside the arena is much stronger."

Lin Chen nodded: "Without considering rules or space, we are certainly more advantaged in combat."

Mo Shuyan’s gaze turned expectant: "Originally, I didn’t have high expectations for the results, but since you’ve hit the seventh-level peak, I should really look forward to a big surprise from you..."
