Chapter 150 Sprout Roots

Boom!

A terrifying imposing aura was crashing down on Xu Sanqi like a landslide.

Xu Sanqi suddenly sneered and slammed out his fist. It was a simple punch but Xie Ruties expression altered subtly and he brought his palm up to block it.

Who would have thought that Xu Sanqi would lean his body slightly forward and just as his right fist struck Xie Ruties palm, he threw out his left arm and pounded Xie Ruties shoulder like a hammer.

Xin Rutie swayed violently and his face turned ashen. In the end, he couldnt help but stumble back one step.

You!

Xin Rutie was livid. He was about to strike back when Xu Sanqi retracted his imposing manner and stood aside. He said coldly, What? You really want to fight?

Xin Rutie glowered at Xu Sanqi for a long moment before he said with a smile. Old man, you are still the same. You never like to lose.

Xu Sanqis face was devoid of emotion when he said, I dont dare to go against the orders of the empire but I can only let you take Old Mo. Lin Xun has to stay here!

Lin Xun scrunched his brows, unsure why Xu Sanqi had changed his stance.

Xiaomans expression changed again. She wanted to say something but seemed hesitant.

Old Mo laughed loudly. It doesnt matter. I have spent long enough time in this hell. Its pretty good that I can return to the empires Divine Workshop.

Xin Rutie swept a glance over Xu Sanqi and said, The order I received is to bring them both back!

Xu Sanqi said coldly, You came here because you heard about the new Violet Hero battleship and the Flying Star Crossbow. I can tell you that Old Mo produced those two treasures and they have little to do with Lin Xun.

Only then did Lin Xun realize the source of the problem. Everything turned out to be caused by the Violet Hero Battleship and the Flying Star Crossbow!

His emotions turned complicated. What is this? A persons talent brings about danger due to others greed.

From one glance, he could tell that Xin Rutie had an extraordinary background and was clearly an influential person in the empire. Yet he was ordered to personally come to Blood Kill Camp to carry out an order. From this, it was obvious that the empire attached great importance to this matter.

Logically speaking, it should be a good thing for Old Mo and Lin Xun. But the expressions on the faces of Xu Sanqi, Xiaoman, and Old Mo clearly indicated that the matter wasnt that simple.

Xin Rutie snorted. He clearly didnt believe it and he had no intention of changing his attitude and stance. He said bluntly, Whether or not it is related to that boy, I will find out after I bring him back to Zijing City.

He inadvertently glanced at Lin Xun and it immediately made the qi freeze around Lin Xun and his hair stand on end. Lin Xun felt like an ancient savage beast was watching him and was choosing someone to devour.

How terrifying is Xin Ruties cultivation level?

Lin Xun couldnt guess.

But the more it was like that, the heavier his heart felt. The consequences of being watched by such an important person were unpredictable.

If you want to take him away, you might as well kill me right now! Old Mo said suddenly. His wrinkly and thin face bore a look of determination.

At that moment, Old Mo was completely different from usual. His creepy look was gone and he emitted a calm, heroic and fearless aura.

Lin Xuns heart trembled and swirled with a vortex of complex emotions. Scenes of the time he spent with Old Mo flashed across his mind, each one clear and vivid.

Threatened with the life of a rune master, Xin Rutie realized the situation was a little tricky. He scrunched his brows and said coldly, Master Mo, do you know that you are going against the orders of the empire?

Enough!

Xu Sanqi drew a deep breath and said coldly, I will take all responsibility. If you still dont agree, perhaps we have no choice but to settle it with a match.

Xin Ruties face darkened and the atmosphere grew tenser and tenser, making it difficult to even breathe.

Alright, good! Xu Sanqi, since youre so courageous, lets wait and see how the important figures in Zijing City view this matter!

Xin Rutie coldly left those words before he turned around.

Just as he reached the warehouse door, he suddenly turned his head. Before dawn tomorrow, I hope Master Mo will willingly leave with me. If something happens, Blood Kill Camp might be closed like before.

Before his voice faded, he had already disappeared into the night.

There was a long moment of silence in the warehouse. Xu Sanqi didnt say a word like he was deep in thought while Xiaoman seemed to have lost her soul.

Old Mo looked a lot more relaxed in comparison. He clapped Lin Xun on the shoulder and reassured, Kid, dont worry too much. Im not leaving forever. Also, they wont dare to do anything to me because I hold the secret to transforming the Violet Hero Battleships.

He grinned proudly. On the contrary, they would treat me like a master. Beautiful women, money, status, honorI can get whatever I want!

Lin Xun stared blankly at Old Mos smiling face. It was only after a long moment that he could say in a serious voice, Old Mo, your acting is too fake. Im not reassured at all.

Old Mos expression stiffened and he smiled bitterly. Then what else do you want me to say?

Lin Xun drew a deep breath and said firmly, Regardless of who gave the orders to take you away, I will personally make them pay for it one day!

Old Mo was visibly moved; the corners of his lips quivered but he didnt say a word. Finally, he just patted Lin Xun on the shoulder and smiled in gratitude.

Xu Sanqi suddenly turned his head around and said, This isnt the worst result. Even if Xin Rutie didnt come, other people will come sooner or later.

Old Mo nodded. Chief Xu is right. Its impossible to conceal the secret of the Violet Hero Battleship. Such a war weapon should be handed over to the Divine Workshop because only then would it have the greatest use.

Seeing that Old Mo understood, Xu Sanqi nodded. Tomorrow morning, I will personally see you off.

Xu Sanqi turned around and left.

Old Mo stood in a daze for a long while. He eventually shook his head and said, I need to prepare some things. He darted into a room in the depths of the warehouse.

Lin Xun knew that Old Mo didnt want to say anything more in case it would create more misunderstandings and make him worry.

That old man Lin Xun sighed, feeling complicated.

Old Mo is pretty nice. He has been like an old friend to me all this time but he is suddenly forced to leave yet I couldnt do anything to change it. Helplessness and powerlessness filled Lin Xuns heart to the point that it was suffocating. He felt horrible.

Old Mos departure has nothing to do with you. Why did you make that decision? Xiaoman asked him softly.

It does!

Lin Xun didnt hesitate. If it wasn't for me, the Violet Hero Battleship wouldnt have been successfully transformed and the Flying Star Crossbow wouldnt have appeared in the world. If those two things hadnt happened, do you think there would still be todays incident?

Xiaoman was about to say something when Lin Xun interrupted her. I dont care about the interests of the empire. I only care that Old Mo will be taken away and I will get justice for him!

Looking at Lin Xuns sharp and handsome face, seeing his determined and calm expression, and listening to his powerful words, Xiaoman suddenly realized that the young man in front of her already had the courage to shoulder everything himself.

He had the mind and bearing that only real men had!

The next day. Early in the morning, the sky was still dark.

An imperial intermediate-level falcon battleship rumbled and was about to take off.

In front of the battleship, Xin Rutie stood with his hands behind his back, his expression imposing and cold. An imperceptible sneer flashed across the corners of his lips when he saw Xu Sanqi personally escorting Old Mo.

Master Mo, please!

Xin Rutie stood aside and invited Old Mo onto the battleship.

Thank you. Old Mo nodded absentmindedly as he boarded, but he couldnt help but turn his head around to take another glance. It was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

He couldnt help but laugh at himself. He no longer hesitated, and his figure quickly disappeared into the battleship.

Old man, you should know that you have already gone against the will of the upper levels of the empire by refusing to bring the young man called Lin Xun. The consequence wont be light. As Old Mos figure disappeared, Xin Rutie turned his head and looked indifferently at Xu Sanqi. I hope we will still have a chance to battle. Farewell.

He was about to leave when Xu Sanqi suddenly said, Do you know who sent Lin Xun to Blood Kill Camp?

Xin Rutie halted his footsteps and snorted, What, you want to scare me with the power behind that kid? Ridiculous! I represent the will of the empire. Who would I fear angering in the entire world?

Sneering, he strode into the battleship.

Just as he reached the door of the battleship, Xu Sanqi's voice rang out, The will of the empire mustnt be shaken, but I know a cart driver who will never change his attitude because of the will of the empire.

Xin Rutie was taken aback. He seemed to remember something as his face abruptly changed. He spun around but Xu Sanqi was no longer there.

Could it be that person from the Black Glory Sacred Hall?

As he headed into the battleship, he felt a little unsettled. He kept thinking about the cart driver that Xu Sanqi mentioned. A cart driver that the empire cant controlThere is only one person in the entire empire!

Could it be that person?

Xin Ruties face was shrouded in a haze of gloom. He hated Xu Sanqi for telling him that just before leaving. How hateful!

Rumble

The falcon battleship soared into the sky, pierced the sky, crushed the clouds, and quickly disappeared into the vast sky.

Dawn broke and a ray of light tore apart the eternal night like a bolt of lightning, illuminating the world.

In the camp, Lin Xun silently retracted his gaze and turned around.

The early morning light bathed the slender and handsome figure, casting an illusory glow on him. But no one knew what was on his mind.

On the other side, Xiaoman faintly sighed as she watched the youngster disappear. She cast her mind back to Lin Xuns powerful words that night, and a thought uncontrollably emerged in her mind

Some hatred is the same as fate, an inadvertent twist will make it sprout root.
