Chapter 217: Temporary Stronghold

“Two against one? Hardly seems fair, does it?”

A white light flashed, and a white-clothed cloaked in a holy aura woman flew over from afar.

Lin Mo was shocked once again. This person was the Saintess of the Profound Azure Holy Land, Han Yue.

It seemed that in the ten or so days since the opening of the Ancient Flame ruins, it had attracted quite a number of individuals from major backgrounds.

The Primordial Sun Holy Land was adjacent to the Profound Azure Holy Land, but there was no conflict between the two factions. On the contrary, they had a rather harmonious relationship.

The disciples of both factions interacted regularly, and they were on good terms with one another.

It seemed that they had chosen to join forces in this exploration of the Ancient Flame Ruins.

The only unknown variable at this moment was whether Yuan Hong’s brother, Yuan Cang was part of their group.

Lin Mo frowned slightly at the newcomer, Han Yue. She was not an easy opponent to deal with.

She seemed to utilize an extremely powerful cultivation technique.

Although her level was slightly behind, being only at tier 15 of the Dragon Transformation Realm, her combat prowess did not seem that far behind Yuan Hong’s.

“Hehe, I didn’t expect the Saintess of the Profound Azure Holy Land to be the type of person who would engage in robbery.” Lin Mo joked with a smile.

Han Yue was caught off-guard by Lin Mo’s attitude.

Throughout all her years of living, those who met her for the first time would either be at a loss or would try their best to attract her attention.

To think that the person before her would blatantly voice out his disapproval of her...

Her cherry-red lips opened slightly. “Fellow Brother in the way of Dao, we have need for this Golden Bug King. Can you part with it? We are willing to purchase it if needed.”

“I refuse. I have no intention of selling it at the moment.” Lin Mo shook his head and responded. The fact that they were still standing above him and acted superior left quite a distasteful impression on him.

“Bzzt.”

The sound of a bow being drawn could be heard. Yuan Hong held the flaming longbow in his hand. Eyes flashing with killing intent, the flames wreathing the arrow intensified even further.

“I advise you not to make a move.” Lin Mo glanced at him indifferently and warned him.

Yuan Hong was one of the top two geniuses of the Primordial Sun Holy Land. He had never been looked down upon like this.

This was in spite of his elder brother Yuan Cang being the Saint of the Primordial Sun Holy Land, who was even married to the Saintess of the Profound Azure Holy Land, Han Yue.

Nevertheless, his talent was by no means weak either. His status was extraordinary, and as such, he would receive courtesy wherever he went.

“A mere tier 12 Dragon Transformation cultivator dares to talk big in front of me!?” Yuan Hong grinned sinisterly. There was a hint of smugness on his face as he said, “Today, I will let you know what true power looks like.”

Flames burst forth from his body, and terrifying runes appeared on the arrow as he prepared to attack.

“Wait...”

Han Yue called out to Yuan Hong, but it was already too late. The flaming arrow had already been shot out...

“Thud.”

This time, Bai Luo did not make a move. She was merely glaring down at Han Yue.

In front of Lin Mo, stood his Origin Spirit Puppet. Despite the immense power contained within the shot, the puppet had still blocked it effortlessly.

Not only that, after blocking the attack, the Origin Spirit Puppet rushed forward and arrived in front of Yuan Hong near instantaneously.

It launched its fist forward, and a powerful burst of force ensured. With only a single attack, Yuan Hong was sent flying.

At the same time, while Yuan Hong was being sent hurtling, the fiery red longbow in his hand was snatched away.

The Origin Spirit Puppet flew back and handed the longbow to Lin Mo..

“A tier 25 Puppet...”

Han Yue was stared wide-eyed in fear at the Origin Spirit Puppet.

As much as a genius the two of them were, Han Yue and Yuan Hong could only face enemies who were at most one or two tiers above them. As such, the tier 25 Origin Soul Puppet was like an insurmountable wall to them.

“Bastard, is it truly your own strength if you’re relying on a puppet?”

Yuan Hong flew back from afar with an ashen face.

He did not expect Lin Mo to have such a powerful puppet up his sleeves. There was no way he could go against a tier 25 puppet.

“Do you think that this some sort of game? Why would I have a fair duel with you?” Lin Mo smiled disdainfully.

Anything could happen within the Ancient Flame Ruins. As such, strength was a necessity here.

Those who went on and on about rules and such were usually the first to get killed.

“Brother, I admit that we have acted rashly in this matter. If you could please return the Blazing Flame Spirit Snake Bow to us, we will promptly take our leave.” Han Yue stopped Yuan Hong who was about to charge forward and cupped her fists in respect.

The Blazing Flame Spirit Snake Bow was personally given to Yuan Hong by Yuan Hong’s father. It must not be lost.

“Are you joking?” Lin Mo said with a cold smile.

It was already in his hands, why would he still return it?

“Sir, do you really want to offend the Primordial Sun Holy Land and the Profound Azure Holy Land?” Han Yue’s tone turned cold.

She faintly sighed and her jade-like fingers twirled, forming numerous runes. Within these runes, Lin Mo could faintly sense a powerful aura lingering within.

“So what if I’ve offended you?” Lin Mo smiled. “Are the Profound Azure Holy Land and the Primordial Sun Holy Land supposed to be very powerful?

Even if he could not go toe-to-toe against those factions, what was preventing him from hiding from their wrath?

Moreover, if one were to compare backgrounds, Lin Mo was certain that his would come out on top...

Although Lin Mo, would rather not rely on his background, if things came to it, he would not hesitate to rely on it.

“You... Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you have that puppet,” Yuan Hong barked.

He announced that the elders of the Primordial Sun Holy Land and the Profound Azure Holy Land were also within the ruins.

In the face of the elders, Lin Mo’s puppet would not be able to put up much of a fight.

“Is that so...”Lin Mo frowned and fell into deep thought.

Just as Han Yue and Yuan Hong thought that Lin Mo was afraid and a disdainful expression gradually appeared on the latter’s face, Lin Mo spoke indifferently.

“In that case, what if I kill both of you? No one would be able to tell who did the deed, right?”

As he spoke, he handed Plain White Snow over to the Origin Soul Puppet. The sharpness of the tier 9 weapon was extremely dazzling.

In the next moment, the origin soul puppet launched into action, thrusting towards Yuan Hong.

At the same time, Bai Luo also made her move. Her spear techniques were profound, and she suppressed Han Yue to the point that she felt helpless.

“I’m afraid it won’t be that easy to keep us here.”

Han Yue frowned. Her cultivation base was lower than Bai Luo’s, so she had no chance of winning.

In the end, the two of them used a special talisman, and their figures disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only a shallow spatial imprint.

“Sigh... What a pity.”

Looking at this spatial imprint, Lin Mo felt helpless.

The talisman the other party used was very high-grade, and it was a spatial talisman as well, making it even more precious.

“Offending the Primordial Sun Holy Land and the Profound Azure Holy Land at once. All this enmity when there are still people from the Secret Ghost Sect coming after you...”

Bai Luo reminded Lin Mo about his current circumstances.

If he was not careful, he would most likely be reduced to ashes.

“What are you panicking for? We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. One step at a time, one step at a time.”

Lin Mo did not panic in the slightest as he walked forward. Through the spatial imprint left behind by Yuan Hong and Han Yue, Lin Mo’s soul power had sensed the general location that they had teleported to.

It was around tens of thousands of meters ahead, and he sensed several more human auras as well.

“They’re probably in a temporary stronghold. There are quite a number of people staying there. However, it could also be a stronghold that’s exclusively for the use of the two great Holy Lands...” Bai Luo reminded.

“Who cares,let’s go and take a look.”

Lin Mo was not afraid at all. The only thought in his mind at this moment was to find people to sell his goods to.

He wanted to seclude himself and cultivate as soon as possible. He was going to sell all of his loot, seclude himself, and completely focus on cultivating with the spiritual stones he earned.

He would definitely make a huge breakthrough...
