At the same time, traveling through time, starting from subverting the war at the top

Chapter 317 Ants
Inside the conference hall of the Han family residence.

All that could be seen was a man in a blue robe appearing out of thin air, standing with his hands behind his back.

Han Yue's face was filled with joy upon seeing the man.

"Who do you think you are, daring to interrupt me?" Hong Chen said coldly.

Hong Chen had long regarded the Han sisters as his own possessions. Han Yue, who usually never gave him a kind look, was now being so friendly to a strange man. How could this not make him burn with jealousy?

Hong Chen was clearly determined to kill, and was preparing to make an example of Lin Mo to set an example for the Han family.

"You're courting death." Seeing that Lin Mo ignored him, Hong Chen's killing intent surged, and his fighting spirit erupted.

"Wind and Thunder Claws!"

As soon as the shout fell, lightning surged on Hong Chen's claws. Several bolts of lightning twisted strangely and finally condensed at his fingertips into a pair of extremely sharp lightning claws, which attacked Lin Mo with an extremely fierce lightning force!

Faced with someone like Hong Chen, Lin Mo didn't even bother to glance at him, simply waving his hand casually.

“Zheng!”

A dazzling azure sword light pierced the sky!
"Pfft!"

Hong Chen's head flew high into the air, his face still frozen in disbelief and horror.

It seemed to be wondering how it could have died like this.
He is the young master of the Hong family.
He was a genius disciple who was recruited into the inner circle of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion.

He is the most promising member of the Hong family in over a hundred years to break through to the Dou Zong level.
How could he just die like that?!
In Lin Mo's eyes, it was just the death of a Dou Huang. Along the way, he had killed countless Dou Zong experts.

"You killed the young clan leader?!"

Those powerful members of the Hong family trembled and screamed as they saw this scene.

The sudden change startled not only the Hong family, but also the entire Han family, leaving them stunned and unable to believe it.

The Hong family is one thing.

You must know that Hong Chen is now an inner disciple of the Fenglei Pavilion. Killing him is tantamount to offending the Fenglei Pavilion.

This is why the Han family doesn't dare to say a word when others bully them at their doorstep.

"You killed my young master, you're dead."

Lin Mo only glanced at them, and before those Hong family experts could finish speaking, they all coughed up blood and fainted.

Han Chi, the head of the Han family and Han Yue's father, smiled bitterly upon seeing this scene. At this point, there was no room for maneuver between the Han family, the Hong family, and the Fenglei Pavilion.

However, he quickly composed himself, made a decision, and after ordering his men to clear out all the Hong family members, he turned to Lin Mo and respectfully bowed, saying, "Han Chi greets Senior, thank you for your help."

Lin Mo calmly said, "Patriarch Han, there's no need for such formalities. Han Yue is a disciple of my Canaan Academy, and I will certainly not allow her to be humiliated."

"Senior has come all the way to Zhongzhou, and is also Yue'er's elder. The Han family should naturally extend the hospitality of a host. If you have any needs, please feel free to give your orders, and the Han family will do its utmost to fulfill them," Han Chi said respectfully.

Seemingly sensing his concerns, Lin Mo smiled and said, "I need a detailed map of Zhongzhou, information on the major powers, and intelligence on various rare and precious materials. Gathering these will likely take time, so I'll be troubling Patriarch Han for the next few days."

Upon hearing this, Han Chi felt somewhat relieved. What Han Chi was most worried about was that Lin Mo would just leave like that, and how would their Han family withstand the wrath of the Fenglei Pavilion?

"By the way, I wonder which city is the nearest branch of the Pill Tower?" Lin Mo asked.

Lin Mo had already confirmed with his divine sense that there were no branch towers of the Pill Tower in Tianbei City.

"Senior Lin, are you looking for an alchemist to refine medicine? This is Elder Zhu Qian, the chief alchemist of my Han family. He is a fifth-grade alchemist. If you need to refine pills below the sixth grade, you can have him do it for you." Lin Mo's gaze followed Han Chi's.

An indifferent old man with white hair and beard wore an alchemist's robe. On his chest was a medicine cauldron badge with five dazzling golden ripples. He was indeed a genuine fifth-grade alchemist.

"Greetings, senior." The alchemist named Zhu Qian bowed to Lin Mo.

To be honest, Zhu Qian's strength has only just reached the Dou Huang level, while Han Chi is already a half-step Dou Zong. However, he doesn't have the same awe for Lin Mo as Han Chi does.

It's not that they lacked respect, but rather that they exuded confidence and arrogance.

This is not to say that the old man was arrogant, but rather that most high-level alchemists in the Central Continent are like that.

The status of alchemists is even more prestigious in the Central Plains than in other places!
Because there are more powerful people here than in other places, and they need elixirs more than in other places!
Lin Mo shook his head slightly and said, "I need to go to the branch tower of the Pill Tower for alchemist level certification."

This is in preparation for participating in the Dan conference later.

Although an alchemist's strength is not necessarily linked to his power, Zhu Qian is certain that an alchemist at the "Dou Zong" level is definitely of a higher level than him.

Upon learning Lin Mo's identity as an alchemist, Zhu Qian's last shred of arrogance vanished completely. He respectfully informed Lin Mo of the location of the nearest branch of the Pill Tower, even detailing some aspects and precautions for the Pill Tower's alchemist level certification examination. After all, the certification examinations for alchemists in Central Continent differed from those in other parts of the continent.

Seeing Zhu Qian's respectful demeanor, Han Chi and the others, who were initially worried that he would offend Lin Mo, suddenly froze. What happened to this arrogant old man today?

This isn't the first time I've seen a Dou Zong level expert.

Han Chi was not an alchemist, and he didn't immediately grasp the meaning behind Lin Mo's words.

After a while.

"It's getting late, Yue'er, why don't you take Senior Lin to rest first?" Han Chi said with a smile.

Han Yue nodded slightly, then turned her head and smiled sweetly at Lin Mo, saying in a charming voice, "Elder Lin, please come with me."

Lin Mo nodded slightly and followed Han Yue.

After the two left.

Han Chi looked at the Han family members and said in a deep voice, "Listen up, all of you. Treat Senior Lin with the highest level of hospitality. Do not show him any disrespect. Any clan member who dares to offend him will be punished according to clan rules!"

Upon hearing Han Chi's stern rebuke, all the members of the Han family immediately responded respectfully.

Now that they have completely broken ties with the Hong family, if they lose Lin Mo's support, then their Han family will truly be doomed.

at the same time,

The Hong family's main hall.

Hong Li, the head of the Hong family, held Hong Chen's body, which had been brought back to him, his face contorted with rage and filled with resentment.

"No matter who you are, the Hong family will fight you to the death!"

Hong Li's resentful voice echoed throughout the entire Hong family.

In the hall, another elderly man in gray robes had an equally icy expression on his face.

He came here to take Hong Chen to the main building of Fenglei Pavilion.
