They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent

Lin Mo’s cruelty made everyone’s throats tighten, involuntarily swallowing their saliva.

Everyone could see clearly that the middle-aged man had ceased to breathe under Lin Mo’s initial sword moves.

Yet Lin Mo still chose to bombard the corpse with a series of sword qi blasts.

Such cruelty made the old Poison Eyebrow doubt who was the real demon cultivator.

“See that? After defeating an enemy, to prevent any feigning of death, you must do as I have done,” Lin Mo taught by example.

The junior sisters immediately stood at attention, saying in unison, “Understood!”

Only then did they realize that this senior brother was indeed as brutally ruthless as the sect’s rumors suggested!

But this was towards an enemy.

On their journey, he had been very kind to them.

Xia He began to regret again, recalling how she had provoked Lin Mo before, and felt a wave of fear.

She was truly grateful that Lin Mo was her senior brother, not her enemy.

However, after witnessing Lin Mo’s power, she found herself loving him even more.

She wondered why the Qingling Sect’s rumors claimed Lin Mo was the weakest senior brother.

To be able to kill a Golden Core cultivator so effortlessly at the Foundation Building stage, probably no one in the entire Qingling Sect could do that.

“How is this possible? How can it be?” Wang Sandun stared at the middle-aged man’s corpse, shaking his head in denial.

How could he accept such a reality? Could that sword really be so powerful?

Poison Eyebrow and the elder no longer looked down upon Lin Mo; their gaze held a hint of solemnity.

“It seems, the boy’s strength lies not in his sword, but in his talent,” Poison Eyebrow speculated. “To wield a Xuan-level technique with the force of a Di-level, he must be a Heavenly Spirit Root, and perhaps even has a physique suited for swordsmanship.”

An elder beside Chen Huai said, “I’ve heard that in the Lingjian Sect, there’s a favored daughter of heaven who is a sword cultivator. She too had slain many Golden Core cultivators during the Foundation Building stage and became nearly invincible in her realm after breaking through to the Golden Core stage, even holding her ground against many Nascent Soul cultivators.”

“She seems to possess a special sword physique, and a mutated Heavenly Spirit Root.”

“With such talent, this young man must be from one of the five major families of the upper realms, perhaps even from the main family,” the elder said to Chen Huai. “Young master, I suggest we retreat.”

Having witnessed Lin Mo’s strength, Chen Huai was also frightened.

He too was considering fleeing.

Seeing this, Wang Sandun suddenly shouted, “Do you think you can escape?”

“He knows your identities. Even if you run now, do you think he won’t seek revenge later?”

Lin Mo was surprised; Wang Sandun seemed much smarter all of a sudden.

However, he had no intention of letting these people go.

“The young master of the Wang family is right!” Poison Eyebrow said at that moment. “What’s there to fear? Am I not still here?”

“As long as we kill this boy, the people from the five major families of the upper realms won’t be able to trace it back to us.”

After guessing Lin Mo’s identity, he no longer entertained the idea of taking him in.

He didn’t have the courage, unsure if leaving Lin Mo behind would allow the people from the five major families of the upper realms to find him through some special means.

Therefore, only by killing Lin Mo can safety be assured.

“Yes, yes, yes, we can’t leave, Elder Mei Du is still here!” Chen Huai realized that Elder Mei Du, who had once slain a Nascent Soul cultivator, was a powerhouse of Nascent Soul level strength.

Even if Lin Mo could challenge beyond his level, could he really leap across two major realms?

Saying this, he instructed the elder beside him to join forces with Elder Mei Du later to deal with Lin Mo, ensuring no mishaps.

Wang San Dun breathed a sigh of relief at this.

If Chen Huai and Elder Mei Du chose to leave, his life would undoubtedly be over.

“Boy, let me show you the blade technique I used to slay a Nascent Soul cultivator,” Elder Mei Du said, pulling out a blood-red scimitar, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

The elder beside Chen Huai did the same, pushing his spiritual power to the peak.

Lin Mo dared not relax, focusing his attention, closely watching every move of the two men before him.

Elder Mei Du made his move, and in an instant, the blood-red scimitar reached the back of Lin Mo’s neck, ready to decapitate him with one strike.

Lin Mo’s reaction was swift; he reversed his Liuli Sword, drawing a sword flower following the curve of the scimitar.

With the “Three Thousand Sword Art” unleashed, countless sword energies flew towards Elder Mei Du.

Elder Mei Du’s spiritual power shifted, and his blood-red scimitar also swung out, its crescent-like blade energy colliding with the sword energies.

In the end, they neutralized each other.

The elder beside Chen Huai took the opportunity to sneak up behind Lin Mo, intending to launch a surprise attack.

Little did he know, Lin Mo, with an extremely bizarre posture, turned around and stabbed at him.

The elder’s shoulder was slashed with a deep cut.

Now, the attempt to steal a chicken only resulted in losing the rice.

The elder retreated repeatedly, stabilizing his injury with spiritual energy.

Lin Mo was also startled, looking at the Liuli Sword in his hand.

The Liuli Sword spoke with a somewhat haughty tone: “It’s not like I wanted to save you. I just feared that if you were defeated, Little Li would fall into the hands of these disgusting men.”

Indeed, it was the Liuli Sword that had acted to protect its master automatically.

Lin Mo hadn’t expected a sword with a spirit to be so sentient.

The Liuli Sword continued: “If you want to thank me, then hurry up and return me to my master, Shi Yao!”

Lin Mo communicated with the Liuli Sword in his heart: “Consider it a debt of gratitude for the sword. Returning you is out of the question; after all, you were won by me. From now on, I won’t rely on you, and I’ll have you reforged.”

The Liuli Sword was shocked: “You, you actually want to reforge Little Li, you demon!!!”

Lin Mo said no more…

The situation was not optimistic.

His sword could indeed match Elder Mei Du temporarily.

But in the end, he was only a Foundation Building cultivator, with less spiritual energy than a Golden Core cultivator. Once his spiritual power was exhausted, defeat in this battle was inevitable.

Moreover, another Golden Core cultivator was watching him.

With no other choice, at this moment, he could only seek help from the system.

“System, is there a solution to this situation?”

[The system responds to the host, “You can draw online for elixir-type prizes, or enhance your own cultivation techniques.”]

[“You can always trust that spending will make you stronger!”]

A lottery draw at this time?

Forget it!

Lin Mo’s gaze fixed on the ‘Nameless Sword Technique’.

This heavenly-grade technique, he had yet to use.

Just in case, he spent fifteen thousand regret points to upgrade the Nameless Sword Technique to the third level.

He had accumulated quite a lot of regret points. After spending fifteen thousand, he still had over forty thousand left.

[Congratulations to the host for upgrading the Nameless Sword Technique to the third level.]

From noble mtl dot come

At the moment of the system’s prompt, Lin Mo’s understanding of the Nameless Sword Technique improved.

Beyond that, he saw something different.

It was the karmic hindrance of the Eyebrow Poison Elder, the souls of those who had died under his blade.

Amidst the haze, it was as if he was guided by the sword technique.

As long as he killed the Eyebrow Poison Elder, he could obtain what he desired.

A flash of red light flickered in Lin Mo’s eyes…

The blade of the Glazed Sword was wrapped in a blood-red aura, appearing incredibly eerie.

The Eyebrow Poison Elder couldn’t help but shiver, his instincts telling him he must run.

Just as he turned to flee, a blood-red sword qi descended from the sky. The sword qi, as if it had a mouth, began to devour the Eyebrow Poison Elder’s vitality.

In just a moment, the Eyebrow Poison Elder withered into a mummified corpse at a speed visible to the naked eye.
