Urban: It turns out this is a comprehensive world

Chapter 35 Reactions from All Parties

Having failed to achieve his original goal of killing Xiao Chen, Mo Yu clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, and intense resentment surging in his eyes. However, thinking of how he had beaten Xiao Chen to the brink of death, he couldn't help but sneer, finally venting the pent-up anger in his heart.

What kind of bastard dares to covet his own wife! A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and the anger in his heart had not completely dissipated.

However, this feud was now completely sealed. Mo Yu composed himself, his brows furrowed, and he thought to himself that he would probably have a hard time finding peace from now on.

The Dragon King Palace has a deep-rooted and extremely powerful presence overseas. Now that relations have been broken, the people under his command, the Killing God Palace, must immediately go into hiding for a period of time to avoid the limelight.

"I should have let Ling Tian come and keep watch." Mo Yu raised his hand to rub his temples, his tone full of regret.

Originally, he had sensed that Xiao Chen's strength was only at the peak of the second tier and hadn't taken him seriously at all. He hadn't expected that the other party would be hiding his true strength, which had already reached the peak of the first tier. Even so, in his opinion, it was still not enough.

But who could have predicted that a protector would suddenly appear out of nowhere? This completely disrupted his plans.

Although the Dragon Guard commander was slightly weaker than him in combat, the other party was determined to escape. Even with his overwhelming power, he was not confident that he could stop him. He could only watch helplessly as the other party escaped with Xiao Chen.

Back at the villa, Mo Yu tossed his coat onto the sofa, his mind replaying the battle scenes, especially the final scene of the Dragon Guard Commander leading Xiao Chen through the encirclement, which made him sigh heavily.

A moment later, he took out his phone, found a number, and dialed it directly.

"Mo Yu, what's the matter so late?"

Meanwhile, in the study of Lingtian Manor, Luo Lingtian was looking down at the message his subordinate had just sent back when his phone on the table suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID on the screen, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and casually pressed the answer button.

"I just fought with Xiao Chen." On the other end of the phone, Mo Yu's voice came through, clearly frustrated, with a hint of barely perceptible irritation.

"Oh? He offended you?" Luo Lingtian picked up the documents on the table, his fingertips lightly tapping the paper. He raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone carrying a hint of knowing the answer already. "Judging from your tone, it seems you haven't been able to deal with him?"

If Mo Yu were here right now and saw the document in Luo Lingtian's hand, he would be astonished. The document recorded the entire process of his battle tonight in great detail, from the beginning to the end, without missing a single key detail.

"That kid was holding back. His true strength is at the peak of the first-rate level, and he's probably about to break through to the Innate Realm." Mo Yu curled his lips, his face full of disdain, but his tone carried a hint of annoyance at having his plans disrupted. "But in my hands, he's no different from a stray cat or dog on the street. I can crush him at will."

He paused for a moment before reluctantly adding, "But then, his protector appeared. I was confident I could defeat the protector, but the other party was determined to leave, and I had no choice but to let them go."

"So you called me because you wanted me to help you?" Upon hearing this, Luo Lingtian's voice remained calm and unwavering, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"That's right, I need your help." Mo Yu said bluntly, his tone becoming more serious. "After all, the Dragon King Palace has a deep foundation, and my Killing God Palace is far inferior to it. I will have all my subordinates withdraw to avoid trouble. You keep an eye on the Dragon King Palace's movements for me."

"No problem." Luo Lingtian readily agreed, then changed the subject, "Do you need me to help you find Xiao Chen's hiding place again?"

He knew in his heart that it was not yet time to personally deal with Xiao Chen. This time, the fight between Mo Yu and Xiao Chen had already made him see a lot. Xiao Chen was indeed a lucky guy and not so easy to kill with a single slap.

When Mo Yu made his move, a protector at the peak of the Innate Realm appeared behind Xiao Chen; if he were to make his move personally, a powerful expert at the Celestial Realm might appear. Although the realm of terrestrial immortals only exists in legends and the Celestial Realm is hard to find, and Innate Realm experts are already the pinnacle of the world, the power of destiny of the chosen one is never reasonable, and no one can predict what kind of variables might emerge.

Let alone now, even if he breaks through to the Gang Jin realm, he can't guarantee that he can kill Xiao Chen. If he really attracts the legendary terrestrial immortal, it will be troublesome.

To be on the safe side, it's best to slowly deplete Xiao Chen's luck first, and then make a move when it's almost depleted.

Thinking about this, Luo Lingtian finally understood what his previous premonition was: Xiao Chen's luck was even deeper than he had expected.

"That would be best!" Mo Yu's voice brightened instantly, filled with anticipation. "If we can find his hiding place, this time I will definitely lay a tight net and not give that brat a chance to escape!"

"Okay, I'll have my men keep a close eye on it."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Lingtian put down his phone, his fingertips still lightly tapping the table as he fell into deep thought. Although he had the help of the artificial intelligence Luo Ya, and was almost completely aware of everything happening in Hai City, he still couldn't guarantee that he could find Xiao Chen, who was deliberately hiding his whereabouts.

"It seems we need to prepare in advance for Xiao Chen to recover from his injuries and further improve his strength." He muttered to himself, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

Here, not long after Luo Lingtian and Mo Yu ended their call, many people in Haishi who had been paying close attention to Xiao Chen's movements also received news of the two fighting, and their moods were quite different.

Inside the Yu family villa, in Yu Bingyu's bedroom, soft light spilled onto the edge of the bed. Leaning against the headboard, she held her phone, quietly listening to Sun Li's report on the other end. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she murmured softly, "So Mo Yu has finally clashed with Xiao Chen? It's a pity he still got away."

"Heh, although he got away, compared to my previous life, he was seriously injured this time and almost died at Mo Yu's hands." On the other end of the phone, Sun Li's voice was tinged with laughter, her tone full of ease.

In an instant, Yu Bingyu's mind flashed back to the scenes of her past life: In her previous life, the conflict between Mo Yu and Xiao Chen occurred earlier, on the day Zhao Hao confessed his feelings to her. At that time, Xiao Chen, as a security guard, attacked Zhao Hao and others in the name of protecting her. He was then taken back to the police station for questioning. The person who responded to the call at that time was Wenren Yajing.

That time, with her vouching for him, Xiao Chen didn't receive any punishment. However, he later spoke recklessly and flirted with Wenren Yajing, which made Mo Yu hold a grudge against him.

In the previous life's battle, just as Xiao Chen was at a disadvantage, the Dragon Guard Commander appeared in time, and Xiao Chen was not injured at all. The two sides did not completely break off relations. Of course, this was only on the surface. Given Mo Yu's protective nature towards Wenren Ya Jing, the two sides would inevitably clash again in the future.

But this time was different. A glint flashed in Yu Bingyu's eyes as she thought to herself: Xiao Chen was just a hair's breadth away from dying at Mo Yu's hands. The two sides had formed a blood feud. Although it only brought forward the time when the two sides became completely opposed, it was already a significant change.

"It's a pity we couldn't completely eliminate him, but it was within our expectations." Yu Bingyu nodded slightly, a faint smile curving her lips. "However, Xiao Chen's serious injuries this time will likely require a considerable amount of time to heal, which gives us an opportunity to make our plans."

Meanwhile, in the hall of the Zhao family villa, Zhao Hao sat on the sofa, a glass of red wine in his hand. After listening to his subordinate's report, he slowly put down the glass, his eyes slightly narrowed, and his tone was deep: "That son-in-law of the Wen family is more complicated than I imagined!"

Although Zhao Hao regained control of his body and possessed memories of his previous life, his memories of his previous life were completely different from those of Yu Bingyu and Sun Li; they were memories of the life before he transmigrated.

However, compared to that, he has a deeper understanding of Xiao Chen. But in this integrated world that combines multiple worlds, he is not sure how much of a role this understanding can play.

After these days of investigation, and with the information he just received, he is now certain that this is not the simple Dragon King world he is familiar with; there are too many variables involved.

But for now, his main target is still Xiao Chen.

"Xiao Chen was seriously injured, but he survived this ordeal. After recovering, he will likely break through to the Innate Realm directly." Zhao Hao rubbed the cup with his fingertips, secretly rejoicing, "Luckily, I didn't act impulsively back then, or it would have been troublesome."

When he first sensed that Xiao Chen's cultivation was only at the peak of the second rank, he thought that the other party was no match for him. Now he realized that it was just a disguise. Although Zhao Hu under his command was also a first-class expert, if he really faced Xiao Chen, he would probably not fare well and would inevitably be humiliated.

As for finding Xiao Chen's current hiding place, Zhao Hao didn't even have that thought. As a transmigrator, he knew all too well the nature of the Chosen One.

At times like this, you either can't find the other person at all, or if you do, you're just asking for trouble and are essentially offering yourself up as easy prey. There's absolutely no need to do something so thankless.

Although the world of the Dragon King novel he was familiar with had been integrated into the comprehensive world, Xiao Chen's core trajectory did not seem to have changed much. Now that Xiao Chen was seriously injured, it was a good opportunity for him to intercept the other party's opportunity.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hao's mood instantly improved, and a smug smile appeared on his lips.

He had previously snatched an opportunity from Xiao Chen at the antique market: the lost martial arts technique "Diamond Body Technique" recorded in that painting.

He reaped great rewards after only one or two days of cultivation. His cultivation level not only recovered to the mid-stage of the second rank, but his physical strength was also greatly enhanced.

"In a few days, it will be that important auction." A glint flashed in Zhao Hao's eyes as a memory surfaced in his mind: "I remember there was an antique at the auction that contained a pill that could quickly enhance one's cultivation."

"As long as I can get that pill, I can quickly recover to first-rate cultivation, and I might even break through to the Innate Realm directly. At that time, even if Xiao Chen also breaks through, I will not be afraid at all!"
