Chapter 1894: Chapter 1661: Complicated
In the Shanshui Mansion.
Lin Mo sat cross-legged beside a small lake, eyes closed in silent meditation, not cultivating but simply sitting still. The cultivation of the realm is an extremely mysterious and unquantifiable thing.
By relying on the Buddhist and Taoist classics brought back from Earth, reading them daily, his heart has become increasingly peaceful, yet as firm as a rock. Lin Mo merely borrowed some ideas from Taoism, combined with his own cultivation, to harden his Heart Realm and pursue the path of the strong.
A childlike heart, the way of sincerity, unity of knowledge and action, eyes looking at the bridge to the other side.
Only by staying focused, persevering, believing in oneself, and acting, can one see that they have already reached the strongest realm.
Suddenly, Lin Mo opened his eyes and exhaled softly, looking at the water as water, the mountain as still a mountain, and the fish as still fish.
Sitting like this for several hours every day did nothing to enhance his strength, but Lin Mo felt a change in his Heart Realm. This change was unquantifiable and indescribable, yet it indeed existed.
"I wonder if the approval for me to go to the Star Domain Battlefield has been granted?" Lin Mo muttered to himself.
To go to the Star Domain Battlefield, one must obtain approval. Lin Mo had reported to Marquis Xuan Yang a week ago, intending to train on the Star Domain Battlefield, where there are Demon Clan, which might help in obtaining information about Xia Mengdie.
The commander’s seal fluctuated, and Lin Mo took it out, revealing a dense array of words on it.
"Hmm, Marquis Xuan Yang has already approved my entry to the Star Domain Battlefield. One week later, I’ll join this batch of soldiers into the battlefield of nature and life." Lin Mo, after reading the words on the commander’s seal, immediately replied to Marquis Xuan Yang.
"The matters concerning the Star Domain Battlefield have been settled; now all there is to do is wait, and then head to the Star Domain Battlefield."
Lin Mo put away the commander’s seal, a smile appearing on his face.
Up ahead, a guard strode along the stone path, looking anxious, and quickly said, "My lord, there are two Advanced Realm Generals outside. Miss Yingzi has been seized by them; they claim Miss Yingzi hit their maid and have come to confront you."
The guards are arranged by the Star Sky Alliance. Some Star Domain Level experts who haven’t reached World Level can’t join the Star Sky Alliance, but can apply to serve as guards for newcomers like Lin Mo, about a hundred Star Domain Level guards were arranged.
Initially, these guards were somewhat disgruntled, as Lin Mo was also a Star Domain Level and had not yet truly reached the height of a World-Level Expert. Why should they serve as his guards?
However, later on, Lin Mo beat a lackey World General of Duke Yaoyang, and solved a sword skill of Xialing Saint in the Stone Forest, gaining great fame. These guards admired and respected this young lord greatly. When they go out now, they can be proud when encountering guards from other Boundary General Mansions.
"Yingzi injured someone?" Lin Mo sneered, striding toward the mansion’s entrance.
He knew Yingzi’s character better than anyone. First, Yingzi would not cause trouble without reason, and secondly, Yingzi’s strength was not high. In the Star Sky Alliance, she was at a low level; who could she have hurt?
There were already many people at the entrance, all nearby World Generals, aware someone came to trouble Lin Mo, they all came to watch the spectacle.
Lin Mo’s reputation had already spread throughout the Boundary General Area, and someone coming to give him grief, regardless of the spectators’ purposes, they wanted to join in the fun.
"Those are the Advanced Realm Generals Mu Yuan and Yuan Xi."
"Lin Mo is a hot topic in the Boundary General Area lately. His fame is inevitable that someone might intentionally come to provoke him."
"Don’t you know? Mu Yuan and Yuan Xi have a good relationship with Duke Yaoyang; Lin Mo had offended Duke Yaoyang before." Someone whispered.
Around, many World Generals began to discuss.
At the mansion’s entrance, two young men stood tall at the door, with a pretty maid standing pitifully next to them in tattered clothes, looking as though she suffered a great grievance.
Beside the two young men stood a lovely figure enveloped and detained by True Yuan, unable to move, her beautiful face filled with hatred.
Lin Mo brought the guards to the entrance, seeing Yingzi controlled by one of the young men with True Yuan; his face instantly turned icy and cold.
"Lin Mo, is this maid yours?" The young man controlling Yingzi said arrogantly, squinting slightly at Lin Mo, "Your maid encountered the maid from my mansion while cultivating on the mountain and ended up hitting my maid. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation?"
Lin Mo’s eyes were very cold as he glanced at him, "Explanation, what kind of explanation do you want?"
Yingzi looked at her, but being controlled, she could not speak to defend herself.
"Offer an apology. She’s your maid, but you didn’t manage her well. You, as her World General master, should apologize. Although I’m not a Realm Marquis, I am still your senior. I can’t just let your people bully mine, right?" Yuan Xi sneered coldly, looking at Lin Mo mockingly.
"Alright, release my person first." Lin Mo said.
Yuan Xi paused, and even the other young man beside him was stunned, not expecting Lin Mo to be so ’agreeable,’ seemingly inconsistent with the rumored arrogant and crazed demeanor.
They intended to blow the matter out of proportion and take the opportunity to teach Lin Mo a lesson. If Lin Mo truly apologized, they wouldn’t know what to do.
Yuan Xi looked at Mu Yuan beside him, and upon getting his agreement, he released the True Yuan cage.
Yingzi quickly ran to Lin Mo’s side, eyes red, "My lord, I didn’t actively provoke her; she came to provoke me, and that’s why I fought back. Moreover, she’s not weak; she intentionally didn’t fight back to look this pitiful."
"Alright, it’s fine now." Lin Mo reassured Yingzi.
Yingzi’s eyes were red, fearing she brought trouble and disaster to Lin Mo because of her actions.
Lin Mo then looked at the young men named Mu Yuan and Yuan Xi; both were Advanced Realm Generals, quite renowned in the Advanced Realm General Zone, and he smiled, "My maid hit your maid? Even if she hit you two, so be it."
Hearing Lin Mo’s words, both Mu Yuan and Yuan Xi’s faces changed, a ferocious expression spread across their faces, but their eyes hid a gleam of joy. They weren’t afraid of Lin Mo speaking arrogantly; they were only worried he’d cowardly retreat, as then they couldn’t find an opportunity to teach him a lesson.
Protectiveness!
Dominance!
The other World Generals watching on the side had reached this unanimous conclusion, then many of their faces and eyes became quite amused, looking at Lin Mo with schadenfreude.
Lin Mo had become too prominent recently, making many proud and arrogant World Generals uncomfortable. Now two Advanced Realm Generals stepping in to teach Lin Mo a lesson was a delightful spectacle to them.
"Young Master Mu, Mr. Yuan." Among the crowd, suddenly a group of people emerged, the leader Lin Mo recognized as Hong Yi.
Hong Yi cupped his hands, "Young Master Mu, this Mr. Lin is also my friend, could you give me some face? After all, it’s a small matter; let’s just let it go."
