At the same time, on the rooftop of the factory, the face of the Ten Elders was filled with a sinister smile as he stared at Xia Mengdie:
"Tsk tsk, truly a national beauty, even more beautiful than any woman I've seen in my life."
"If we were to play around, it would surely make one crave life and death alike, hehe, just thinking about it excites me."
The expression on Xia Mengdie's face was one of terror, "Who... Who are you? What do you really want to do?"
"Who am I? Hehe, that you'll have to ask your little boyfriend, he killed our Sect Leader's own brother, Holy Land Taoist."
"So today, we specifically came over to take your boyfriend back to the Shennongjia Sacred Domain, to let him undergo a fate worse than death."
"Of course, your little boyfriend has a Martial Power that shocks the heavens, even our Holy Land Taoist was killed by him."
"It's a pity, but everyone has emotions and desires, and you're that kid's greatest weakness. I believe having you in hand makes capturing that kid easier than ever."
Hearing this, Xia Mengdie's face was filled with fury, her voice cold as frost: "Despicable! You are nothing but a beast!"
At that moment, Sheng Ke, who stood beside the Ten Elders, eyed Xia Mengdie and swallowed, saying, "That woman is so stunning, why don't you have your way with her first and then let me have a taste."
Slap!
However, as soon as Sheng Ke finished speaking, the Ten Elders slapped him hard across the face, his voice cold as he said, "Before we capture that kid, not even a single hair on her can be touched. She is our trump card. If anything happens to her, we will surely have no place to be buried today!"
"Yes…"
Sheng Ke repeatedly nodded, then his gaze turned downwards, and he instantly turned pale with shock, "Ten Elders, that... that kid is here!!"
"What?" The Ten Elders hardly hesitated, in the blink of an eye, he clutched Xia Mengdie's neck, his entire demeanor tensing up.
Below.
A good dozen Martial Venerates, all with murderous intent, stared at Lin Mo, then the one with the highest cultivation among them coldly said to Lin Mo, "Was it you who killed the Holy Land Taoist?"
Lin Mo's eyes were filled with a cold light, his expression indifferent: "If you want revenge, go ahead, but if you threaten me by capturing my woman, today you will suffer a fate worse than falling into the Eighteen Layers of Hell!"
"You sure are arrogant. We are here precisely to kill you. The Ten Elders said to use your woman to threaten you. I see you are young, how far can you fight against the heavens?" one of the Martial Venerates scoffed, looking at Lin Mo with thick disdain in his eyes.
They were at least Basic-level Martial Venerables, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth from the Mortal World, even if he had cultivated from the womb, he couldn't possibly be stronger than all of them, right?
Boom!!
However, just as the Martial Venerate finished speaking, a storm of slaughter suddenly erupted from Lin Mo's body, then his hand reached out, and the giant Handprint carried a might as if slaying the heavens and earth.
"Elder brother, save me!" the Martial Venerate screamed in terror.
The highest cultivated Martial Venerate's face changed color, just as he was about to move.
Boom!
With a loud noise, in the blink of an eye, that Martial Venerate was directly smashed into the ground by Lin Mo's Handprint, completely pulverized.
Lin Mo swept a glance at all the Martial Venerates present, his voice indifferent: "A bunch of trash, either get lost or die!"
As his voice fell, a glint of cold light flashed in Lin Mo's pupils and a majestic aura enveloped him, his palm moved as if covering the heavens, smiting those people.
Where it passed, it quelled heaven and earth.
"Run!"
The face of the highly-cultivated Martial Venerate changed dramatically, that power made him feel like he was in the middle of the Asura Battlefield's storm of slaughter.
Until this moment, he realized just what kind of invincible existence he had provoked.
Even though they were Martial Venerates, in front of this youth, they were less than ants!
Boom boom boom!!!
However, including the highest-cultivated Martial Venerate, not one escaped Lin Mo's Heavenly Punishment Handprint. They perished on the spot, their bodies exploding like grenades, blood mist shrouding the skies, resembling Human Purgatory.
Seeing this scene, Sheng Ke on the rooftop almost freaked out, "Is...is this kid a fairy?"
Sheng Ke instantly turned pale, "Ten Elders, should we...run away?"
"Run? Then you might as well go die first!"
The Ten Elders, without a second word, twisted Sheng Ke's head off with his other hand, blood splattering everywhere.
The Ten Elders showed no mercy, his face revealing a ferocious expression, "At such times, those who harbor fear only have one path—death. Lin Mo may be strong, but his most beloved woman is in my hands. Today, she can only be at my mercy!"
At that very second, Lin Mo's figure had already stepped into the sky, a hundred meters up.
"Let her go!"
Lin Mo's voice was cold, the entire sky seeming frosted over.
Seeing Lin Mo appear, Xia Mengdie's face was filled with emotion, feeling completely reassured by his presence, no matter what happened.
Even amid such dangerous circumstances.
The Ten Elders, face full of sinister smiles, coldly said, "Boy, now that I have your beloved woman, immediately destroy your Dantian, or else I will twist her neck right in front of you!"
"No one can threaten me," Lin Mo spoke coldly, his voice like a winter gust from Siberia.
"How arrogant! Do you not care about your woman's life?" the Ten Elders sneered, believing that as long as he held Xia Mengdie as his trump card, Lin Mo would have no choice but to surrender no matter how strong he was.
"Do you think you can harm my woman? You can try," Lin Mo said indifferently, the words coming out light yet firm. Xia Mengdie's eyes sparkled with conviction—if any other man had said this, she wouldn't have believed it, but since it was Lin Mo who spoke, no matter how outrageous, she believed it was true.
"Are you really not afraid of her dying?" the Ten Elders' face twisted fiercely; he clearly saw that there was not a hint of fear in Lin Mo's eyes.
"No one can threaten me," Lin Mo maintained his indifferent demeanor, his voice carrying an icy murderous aura that enveloped the heavens and the earth.
"Arrogant boy, you will pay the most painful price for these words!"
Upon saying this, the Ten Elders hardened his expression, his palm tightening, ready to cruelly grab Xia Mengdie's neck.
But the next second, his expression turned to terror; his hand could no longer move an inch as if it was restrained.
"Mind lock on space? How...how can you be this strong?"
The Ten Elders was utterly horrified, now deeply regretting his actions, even wanting to run away, but sadly, his body seemed frozen like it was encased in miles of ice, utterly unable to move.
"How would ants understand the strength of a dragon?" Lin Mo's eyes gleamed coldly, an overwhelming earth-shattering suppression suddenly sent the Ten Elders flying backward.
Bang!
The Ten Elders hit the ground, his face instantly filled with immense horror, his pain far more intense than the Nine Nether Hell: "Aaaaah!!!"
That feeling was hundreds of times more gruesome than a fate worse than death.
"Anyone who dares touch my woman, all of Shennongjia Sacred Domain, today I must annihilate your entire lineage! Let every soul of yours suffer through the agonies of the Nine Nether, turned to ashes and dispersed!"
A cold voice came from Lin Mo, a killing chill soaring up into the sky, tearing the heavens apart.
