"Of course, I'm free."
Lin Mo walked straight towards Xia Mengdie, his eyes filled with doting affection as he looked at her, then he took her hand and, under countless envious gazes, the two of them walked shoulder to shoulder, like the leading actors in a movie, towards the front.
In an instant, the sound of countless young men's hearts shattering echoed around, and some girls felt they could only watch in the dust. They had been quite taken with Lin Mo, but now, his girlfriend was none other than Xia Mengdie. How could they ever catch up?
As for Tang Yi, she was filled with regret. To know a man as outstanding as Lin Mo, to be his girlfriend was an incredible honor.
However, Tang Yi quickly calmed herself. As outstanding as Lin Mo was, having hurt so many from the New Dragon Society, Lu Chendong, who stood behind New Dragon Society, definitely wouldn't let him off easily.
And looking at Lin Mo and Xia Mengdie walking away, Wu Yifan and his two friends looked on with awe, their respect for Lin Mo immense.
Previously, Lin Mo had not only stood up for them but had also swept away many of the New Dragon Society members, with Long Hai not even being a match for him.
Clearly, they had all underestimated Lin Mo before, thinking he was just an ordinary student like themselves.
Now it was clear that Lin Mo was unimaginably powerful.
The three of them made up their minds then and there, that from now on, they would follow Lin Mo wholeheartedly.
Meanwhile, on an unnamed mountain peak in Imperial City, a young man in a white shirt, wielding a Long Blade, waved it effortlessly.
With each seemingly casual swing, he conjured unpredictable Sword Energies, even distorting and shattering Space itself due to the oppressive Sword Energy.
After a short while, the handsome youth paused, flicked his Long Blade gently into the ground, piercing it as if it were tofu, a full three feet deep!
He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, facing the abyss with a confident and proud smile on his face:
"Finally, I've lived up to my father's expectations. My Wild Blade Shadow Slash has reached the Ninth Layer! One more layer, and I will be able to enter the Great Perfection Realm!"
Speaking thus, Lu Chendong even let out a contented hum, a triumphant smirk on his lips:
"Once my Wild Blade Shadow Slash is perfected, even the top young talents of Imperial City, Xuanyuan Chen and Ye Kai, will only be able to be suppressed by me!"
Just then, he received a phone call, and after a mere two or three minutes, Lu Chendong hung up, but his eyes turned icy:
"Since you're courting death, you'll be the first subject of my Wild Blade Shadow Slash's Ninth Layer!"
On the school lawn, Lin Mo tenderly stroked Xia Mengdie's little head, smiling as he asked,
"Did you miss me, Die'er?"
A blush spread across Xia Mengdie's face, and she said sweetly, "Yes, I missed you, and I missed you very, very much."
Hearing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh, "Aren't we both in the same university?"
"That doesn't change anything! Don't you know that to a lover, a second apart feels like an eternity?"
Lin Mo could tell from the look in Xia Mengdie's eyes that her affection was fervent; the deep love in her gaze made her seem incredibly irresistible at that moment.
Therefore, Lin Mo couldn't hold back and gave her a passionate kiss.
Xia Mengdie couldn't help but let out a soft moan, her face flushing red like a ripened apple, looking lusciously sweet.
After all, this was school, and kissing in broad daylight was an extremely shy matter for a goddess like Xia Mengdie.
But Xia Mengdie did not refuse, for the man she loved most was Lin Mo.
Her heart felt both embarrassed and joyful, even finding the experience slightly thrilling.
The two shared a romantic deep kiss, as if they were isolated from the rest of the world.
"Damn it!! You brat, let go of my goddess!!"
Just then, a furious, extremely jealous voice suddenly arose.
But before the voice could reach Xia Mengdie's ears, Lin Mo's eyes slightly lifted, then he directly blocked out the voice.
Thus, the young man ranted on one side, and the two seemed not to hear, continuing their heated kissing.
It was not until the kiss ended that Lin Mo placed his hands on Xia Mengdie's fragrant shoulders, his voice tender as he spoke:
"Die'er, wait here for me; I'll go take care of those annoying flies."
"Okay."
Xia Mengdie obediently nodded her head, but she was quite astonished. She noticed the young man in Armani across the way continually shouting and cursing at Lin Mo, even kicking the air in frustration.
Clearly, the young man had been swearing for quite some time now, but just now she had not heard a sound.
Inevitably, a smile of happiness appeared on Xia Mengdie's face. As long as Lin Mo was by her side, everything seemed so secure.
Soon, Lin Mo approached the young man. Standing over six feet tall, Lin Mo looked down at him and asked coldly, "Was it you who wouldn't stop yapping like a dog just now?"
"So what if it was me?"
The young man lifted his head to glare at Lin Mo, his face filled with anger as he pointed towards Xia Mengdie. "Kid, I'm warning you, stay away from my goddess!"
Slap!
However, as soon as he finished his sentence, Lin Mo delivered a slap straight across his face.
What appeared to be a casual slap actually sent the man seeing stars and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Shi Peng was utterly shocked. When he came back to his senses, he glared at Lin Mo furiously:
"Damn it, kid, you dare to hit me? Do you have any idea who I am?"
"I'm from the Shi Family!"
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, everyone around inhaled sharply.
The Shi Family was a second-tier family in Imperial City, yet their family's energy was definitely powerful.
Now, Lin Mo had openly struck Shi Peng. Was this guy too rash?
The people over here hadn't seen Lin Mo kicking Long Hai half to death with one foot. Otherwise, their expressions would have been very different.
"Are you done talking?"
Lin Mo looked at Shi Peng with disdain. In his eyes, there was nothing in this world that could threaten him. To speak of second-tier families, even the first family, the Murong Family, was nothing to him.
The next second, under the watchful eyes of all, Lin Mo raised his foot slightly and said indifferently, "Since you're done, you can roll away now."
No sooner had the word 'roll' landed than everyone could visibly see Shi Peng flying as if hit by a rocket, crashing directly into a trashcan with a loud bang.
"Ah!" A miserable scream came from the trashcan.
A full minute passed before they saw the half-dead Shi Peng crawling out of the trashcan, covered in filth. He looked extremely pathetic, especially with the blood on his face—it was a pitiful sight to behold.
"Damn bastard! This isn't over between us!!"
Shi Peng raged, staring intently at the direction Lin Mo and Xia Mengdie left, filled with resentment and jealousy.
Hearing the roar coming from behind, Xia Mengdie's pretty face showed a touch of apology: "Mo, I'm sorry, because of me, you might deal with a lot of rivals here at Tian Nan University."
Lin Mo merely smiled lightly, affectionately ruffling her hair:
"Silly girl, it doesn't matter. This only proves that my wife's charm is immense and nation-topping."
"Besides, what do I care if there are billions of rivals in the world? If anyone dares to do the slightest undue thing to you, I'll annihilate their entire family!"
Lin Mo's voice was domineering and full of profound affection, deeply moving Xia Mengdie, who couldn't help leaning her head on Lin Mo's shoulder.
Afterward, Lin Mo personally escorted Xia Mengdie back to her class.
When he headed towards his own teaching building, Lin Mo suddenly turned and walked toward a small grove, then leaning against a tree trunk, he lit a cigarette, his tone indifferent:
"Aren't you going to roll out yet?"
