Watching Da Shan grab the two and leave the courtyard, both the Rain King and Luo Yu’er were left dumbfounded.

Zhou Yang and Sun Mei, these two were also disciples who had joined the Mystic Realm Sect for quite a long time, genuinely at the Intermediate Star System Level, yet in Da Shan’s hands, they were like two children, carried away as effortlessly as chickens.

"Mr. Lin, who is this Da Shan?" The Rain King widened his eyes, opened his mouth, and even found breathing a bit difficult.

"My servant, at Star Domain level strength, also cultivates a body cultivation technique," Lin Mo said.

Luo Yu’er opened her mouth, taking a deep breath, "He’s a Star Domain-level expert and he’s your servant?"

Even the Rain King was a bit astonished. Da Shan didn’t say a word all the way, which seemed a bit strange. Moreover, his aura was restrained, making it impossible to probe his cultivation, but both the Rain King and Luo Yu’er felt a hint of danger from him.

"It seems, Mr. Lin is still Mr. Lin. Just now, I mistakenly thought..." Luo Yu’er blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.

The Rain King laughed heartily, "Sister Yu, Mr. Lin just loves to play the pig and eat the tiger, don’t blame yourself, don’t blame yourself."

Lin Mo showed a helpless expression. It’s not that he wanted to play the pig eating the tiger, the key reason being that his true self was taken away by the True Yang Venerable and now remains cultivating in the Venerable Mansion, unable to come out.

"With Mr. Lin around, Brother Yu, we can go deal with that Star Domain-level beast." Luo Yu’er shouted excitedly upon remembering something.

"Have you found a Star Domain-level beast already?" Lin Mo asked.

Star Domain-level beasts aren’t scarce in the Dark Demon Sea, but it’s somewhat difficult to specifically find water attribute beasts. Moreover, it’s a very critical time now, with experts from various Star Domains pouring into the Dark Demon Sea. Those Star Domain-level beasts have already become somewhat intelligent, afraid of encountering some hunting squads, so they usually hide away, making them difficult to find.

The Rain King seriously replied, "Yes, actually we’ve discovered that beast long ago, but just don’t have enough confidence to kill it. We initially planned to stay in the city a few more days, hoping to find one or two helpers, but unfortunately..."

"Unfortunately, Shao Wenfeng didn’t care for the benefits you offered him?" Lin Mo said.

The Rain King nodded, "Indeed, we wanted to invite Shao Wenfeng to lend a hand, but unfortunately, the treasures we have are insufficient, so it’s natural he didn’t want to help."

"Tomorrow, I’ll go with you to kill that Star Domain-level beast," Lin Mo said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin." Luo Yu’er was full of joy, even taking out a new cup, filling it with wine for Lin Mo, "Mr. Lin, earlier words of mine were reckless, please don’t mind."

"I don’t mind, I don’t mind." Lin Mo drank, smiling.

In the past, he indeed had some small grudges with Luo Yu’er, but such grudges have faded a lot in the Mystic Realm Sect, and after twenty years, Luo Yu’er no longer cared.

...

Not far from the small courtyard, within a ruin.

Two figures turned into a dark curtain, crashing heavily to the ground, thud thud, making two loud noises.

On the ground, two giant pits appeared, with cobweb-like cracks spreading around them. Two battered figures lay within, hair disheveled, blood oozing from their mouths, bones shattered significantly, and their breaths weak.

"The young master said to spare your lives." A large figure stood before the two giant pits, with a wooden expression and hoarse voice.

After saying that, the large figure stomped its feet, transforming into a stream of light and quickly darted in one direction.

"Damn it, how does Lin Mo have such a master around him?" Zhou Yang lay in the giant pit, with five or six ribs broken, his leg bone fractured. Slightly moving his body caused so much pain it made him break into a cold sweat all over.

"We stumbled this time, fortunate he didn’t kill us, otherwise neither of us would have survived," Sun Mei also frowned deeply in the other pit, speaking weakly.

"Quickly take some elixirs, meditate and recover, then go back and inform Brother Shao," Zhou Yang said quickly.

"Okay."

Following that, the two took out spiritual medicine to consume, meditating to recover. After all, both were at the Intermediate Star System Level in cultivation, the physical pain wasn’t much of an issue, as long as it didn’t hurt their foundation, they could quickly regain temporary mobility.

After a stick of incense time, the two recovered mostly, then flew out of the giant pit.

"This debt, I must settle it with Lin Mo," Zhou Yang’s gaze carried a hint of malice looking forward, "If it weren’t for that strong man, I would definitely take care of him."

"Stop complaining here, quickly go back and report to Brother Shao," Sun Mei urged.

With that, the two transformed into two streams of rainbow light and vanished from the spot.

In no time, they arrived at a refined mansion, which was a private mansion rented by Shao Wenfeng. It was many times better than the shabby courtyard the Rain King had casually found.

In a small courtyard.

Shao Wenfeng and Liu Qingyang were sitting face-to-face beside a stone forest, with snacks and wine placed on the stone surface.

"Brother Shao, the Yanhuang Palace and Water God Sect are all eyeing that secret realm, I heard they’ll start acting tomorrow, if we go, can we gain any benefits?" Liu Qingyang frowned, his willow-leaf eyebrows knitting together as she asked.

Shao Wenfeng held a wine cup, a faint smile on his face, "Junior Sister, I have a fairly good relationship with a prince from the Yanhuang Palace, this time having discovered a relic treasure, although we might not obtain the most important treasure, getting a share is not bad, and with some luck, there might be a substantial gain."

"Hmm. Let’s hope we’re lucky this time." Liu Qingyang nodded.

While speaking, along a path connecting the courtyard to the outside, two figures hurriedly approached, seeing Shao Wenfeng and Liu Qingyang drinking and chatting.

"Brother Shao, Sister Qingyang."

The two were exactly Zhou Yang and Sun Mei. Seeing their tattered robes, Liu Qingyang couldn’t help but show a hint of suspicion.

"Qingyang, you go back to your room and get some rest, we have to get up early tomorrow," Shao Wenfeng said looking at Liu Qingyang.

"Yes, Brother Shao, then I’ll head back to my room," Liu Qingyang stood up, nodded slightly to Zhou Yang, then gracefully walked toward her room.

Zhou Yang and Sun Mei approached Shao Wenfeng.

"What’s going on?" Shao Wenfeng slightly furrowed his brow.

Seeing their disheveled appearance, Shao Wenfeng knew these two had taken a beating, but he was also puzzled, as Lin Mo hadn’t even reached the Star System Level, how could these two suffer at his hands? Even if the Rain King and Luo Yu’er worked together, they might not be a match for these two.

"It’s that burly man following Lin Mo, he’s a master," Zhou Yang quickly said.

"Yes, a Star Domain-level master, and extremely strong physically, both Zhou Yang and I got beaten up by him," Sun Mei added.

Shao Wenfeng’s eyes widened, then his gaze turned a bit gloomy, "A Star Domain-level expert, and skilled in body cultivation methods, such a fellow isn’t easy to deal with!"

"Who would’ve thought Lin Mo would have such a master beside him," Zhou Yang complained.

Shao Wenfeng raised his head, "Do you know what relationship that Star Domain-level master has with Lin Mo?"
