Shen Dongfang glared at Lin Mo, his eyes overflowing with cold fury:
"Kid, do you have any idea who these bodyguards I brought with me are?"
"They are all experts I hired for a hefty price, known as the Thirty-Six Shadows!"
Most of the people present exchanged bewildered looks, clueless about the situation.
However, Wu Yuan's expression darkened slightly:
"Thirty-Six Shadows? Could they be the same people who annihilated the Huang Family three years ago, who were ranked ninth at the time?"
"These people are said to possess extremely formidable power, with every single one of them being at least of the High-level Grandmaster Realm."
"Their coordination and synchronicity are said to be one hundred percent."
Upon hearing this, many people there were greatly shocked.
No wonder when they first saw those bodyguards, they felt an immense sense of dread.
Each of the bodyguards was bald, and their ferocity and bloodthirstiness far exceeded that of Shen Hao's two previous bodyguards by countless times.
The next second, those thirty-six bald bodyguards, all holding dazzlingly sharp daggers, looked fiercely threatening.
Seeing this, most of the people present were so frightened that their legs went weak.
Even some wet themselves from the overwhelming murderous aura those bodyguards emitted.
However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Lin Mo stood calmly in his place, hands in his pockets, his face serene.
It seemed that, to Lin Mo, these Thirty-Six Shadows were no more significant than ants.
Wu Yuan looked a bit grave and couldn't help but remind, "Mr. Lin, the Thirty-Six Shadows are extremely powerful; it's better to be careful."
Lin Mo merely smiled faintly and lit a cigarette, "No worries, to me, they're all trash."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Shen Hao, however, burst into rage-fueled laughter: "Damn, kid, you dare call our Shen Family's Thirty-Six Shadows trash? That's hilarious! Prepare to die!"
The next second, at Shen Dongfang's command, the Thirty-Six Shadows menacingly closed in on Lin Mo.
The battle ignited instantly.
The Thirty-Six Shadows looked at Lin Mo with utter contempt, believing that any one of them could easily dispose of him.
Yet, as per Shen Dongfang's order, they all charged at him.
They wielded their daggers, clamoring towards Lin Mo's position.
Striking, slashing, hooking, cutting, slicing.
Although their techniques varied, they all shared one thing: they were extremely dangerous and deadly.
Their speed was rapid, almost comparable to a bolt of lightning.
Their daggers were exceedingly fierce; as they advanced on Lin Mo, they even tore through the air, producing an unbearably shrill tearing sound.
In just a few breaths, their daggers, with incredibly tricky attacks, targeted every part of Lin Mo's body.
Seeing this, some people even closed their eyes, as if envisioning Lin Mo's imminent death the next second.
Only Shen Hao felt an extreme thrill, convinced that opposing the Shen Family could only end in one way: death.
Lin Mo coldly swept his gaze over the Thirty-Six Shadows, his expression detached:
"I guess I'll play along with you trash then."
As his words fell, Lin Mo's demeanor turned icy, and he swiftly leaped forward, then unleashed a thunderous punch.
The Thirty-Six Shadows instantly dropped their contemptuous looks.
Because, a profoundly unsettling premonition suddenly surged in their hearts.
Bang bang bang!!
The next second, it was as if glass from a thirty-story building had shattered on the road, terribly piercing and crisp.
Everyone saw that Lin Mo's punch was as fast as a shooting star.
They clearly saw that when Lin Mo's fist struck the daggers of the Thirty-Six Shadows, their sharp and formidable daggers instantly shattered to pieces.
"Ah ah ah ah ah..."
The next moment, accompanied by their utterly miserable screams, was numerous clouds of blood mist; in the blink of an eye, all of the Thirty-Six Shadows were sent flying backward.
Boom boom boom…
Like dead dogs, the Thirty-Six Shadows flew out and smashed into the entire clothing store's walls, furniture, and dressing rooms, leaving everything in utter disarray.
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Among them, Shen Hao and Shen Dongfang's eyes were especially wide.
"No... this can't be real!"
Shen Hao found it impossible to believe; he had not expected that the Thirty-Six Shadows, brought by his father, would be annihilated by Lin Mo within minutes.
Shen Dongfang took a deep breath, trying hard to calm himself down.
How could this young man, at most seventeen or eighteen years old, be so formidable?
Yet, it was all true.
God, from where did this demon emerge?
Shen Dongfang's expression darkened. They had already become enemies with Lin Mo, and the Shen Family had lost so many experts. If they were to back down now, it might turn the Shen Family into a complete joke.
However, Shen Dongfang was thinking of backing down.
Frowning deeply, Shen Dongfang looked at Lin Mo, his tone much softer:
"Young man, for today's incident, my Shen Family will step back and offer you five billion!"
"Let go of my son and daughter-in-law."
"I assure you, my Shen Family will no longer pursue this matter against you."
"Consider it as giving face to me, Shen Dongfang, how about it?"
Hearing this, everyone gasped; five billion was astronomical to them.
Moreover, even Shen Dongfang himself was softening his stance, which was entirely giving face to Lin Mo.
Yet unexpectedly, Lin Mo stood with his hands behind his back, his expression cold:
"Sorry, I really do not want to give you this face!"
Hearing this, Shen Dongfang's face turned utterly somber:
"Young man, you are forcing me!"
Lin Mo indifferently said, "Yes, I am forcing you."
"Very well! Kid, I assure you, you will deeply regret these words, I assure you!!"
Shen Dongfang's face became completely fierce and chilling.
Lin Mo, however, sneered dismissively, "Really, are you expecting him to make me regret?"
The next second, Lin Mo unexpectedly looked to his right.
Shen Dongfang's face changed drastically; had Elder Yao been discovered?
Elder Yao was the Shen Family's greatest trump card, with imposing martial power and an unmatched Concealing Technique.
Now, he had been discovered by Lin Mo?
Soon, Elder Yao stepped forward; squinting slightly at Lin Mo, he spoke in a breezy tone:
"At such a young age, you have both strength and talent, it's impressive. If you hadn't insisted on opposing the Shen Family, I wouldn't even bear to kill you."
Lin Mo, with his hands in his pockets, coldly responded:
"Don't act tough in front of me, do you think you're strong? In my eyes, you're no different from an ant."
Elder Yao instantly grew furious, his gaze icy cold: "Young man, my martial prowess is unparalleled and invincible, and I have never encountered an ignorant and arrogant lad like you. Today, I will flay and dismember you!"
(Wonderful continuation tomorrow, goodnight.)
