On the way back, Xu Mo continued to think back on the things that had taken place today.
As his brain region had evolved, he realized that he also had an extraordinary talent for guns. With just a few hours of practice, he was already able to hit moving targets.
Furthermore, he also obtained a lot of useful information from Ye Qingdie. He found out about the existence of origin energy, genetic warriors, origin energy weapons, and modified humans.
Not only did technologies exist in this world, but they were also extremely advanced.
However, regardless if it was origin energy or technologies, they couldn’t be seen in ordinary people’s lives. Everyone in the Subterranean World could be controlled by human effort, and those ‘important characters’ didn’t want them to know too much.
“Si…” Xu Mo felt a sense of pain. Right now, there wasn’t a part of his body that was intact. Even his face had a bruise on it.
Sister C* was too vicious. Didn’t he just get a few more looks?
Did she have to go to this extent?
SC
The painful lesson let Xu Mo understand something-regardless of which world one was in, women’s words were never to be trusted, especially those by beautiful women.
The streets outside the general store were bustling with people.
From afar, Xu Mo saw a beautiful lady in a purple dress playing by the street with Yao‘er. Yao er was holding a balloon and had a bright smile on her face.
“Yao’er, be careful not to let the balloon fly away.” Mia stood not far away from them and said happily.
Seeing this beautiful and serene scene, Xu Mo forgot about the Subterranean World’s brutality for a moment.
Yao’er probably hadn’t had anyone bringing her out to play like this.
The young lady taking her hand was Elsa. At the sight of this scene, Xu Mo’s impression of Elsa improved a little. Other than being a little proud, she wasn’t bad. The reason she was willing to play with Yao er was probably because of the experience the other time.
Xu Mo didn’t go and disturb Mia, choosing to slip into the general store secretly. However, the moment he entered, he heard Bai Wei, who was at the general store’s entrance, calling out, “Xu Mo, you’re back.”
“Sh*t.” Xu Mo thought in his heart.
“Xu Mo.”
“Elder Brother.” As expected, two voices rang out. Xu Mo knew that there was no hiding from this, and he quietly turned over. Yao’er came running over while holding the balloon, and Xu Mo pinched her face.
“Elder Brother, what happened to your face?” Yao`er asked in her childish voice when she saw the bruise on Xu Mo’s face.
“Xu Mo, what happened?” Mia clearly noticed it as well and her countenance changed.
“I accidentally bumped into something,” Xu Mo said guiltily.
“Why is it so serious?” Mia was a little anxious and pulled Xu Mo, saying, “Come with me so I can help you apply some medicine. Yao‘er, go play with Elder Sister Elsa.”
“Alright,” Yao‘er nodded docilely and then turned to talk toward Elsa, who took a look in Xu Mo’s direction and continued to play with Yao‘er.
Mia pulled Xu Mo over to sit at the general store’s entrance, and then she went in to take some medicine.
“Why were you so careless?” Bai Wei also asked when she saw the bruise. Xu Mo smiled bitterly.
Mia walked over. She then dabbed some of the medicinal ointment on her finger and rubbed it on Xu Mo’s face.
“Sss…” Xu Mo gritted his teeth, thinking to himself that he was going to take revenge on Sister C tomorrow.
“It must hurt.” Mia’s finger rubbed gently, and she blew at Xu Mo’s face. At this moment, Xu Mo felt a numbing feeling. When looking at the face in front of him, his gaze became a little strange.

Mia didn’t think too much into things, but when she looked at Xu Mo’s eyes, their gazes met and her face instantly flushed up. After that, she quickly backed off and lowered her head to close the medicinal ointment.
“Miss Mia, why did Miss Elsa stay so long today?” Xu Mo asked a little curiously.
“To learn music,” Mia said to Xu Mo. “She also said that she wants to apologize to you. Xu Mo, although Elsa was a bit in the wrong the other day, she didn’t do it intentionally. Look, Yao’er is having so much fun playing with her.”
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded, not really minding this matter.
On the streets, a motorbike came riding over with two people on it. They were both very young, about 24 to 25 years old. From afar, they saw Elsa’s beautiful figure.
“Vroom, vroom…” The motorbike made loud noises as if they were flaunting. Motorbikes weren’t commonly seen in this area.
Amidst the loud sounds from the motorbike, the two of them whistled at Elsa.
Elsa looked at the motorbike that was coming over and frowned a little. She was disgusted by such impolite behavior.
“Isn’t this Batu’s house?” said the person in front. However, suddenly a crying sound rang out. Only then did the two of them lower their heads and take a look at the girl who was playing with a balloon. After that, they couldn’t help but break into a smile. So, this was the girl that Old Mister Batu had saved.
“Why are you crying? Do you still remember Elder Brother?” The motorbike stopped next to Elsa and Yao’er, and the person behind jumped off, squatting in front of Yao’er and asking her while smiling.
Yao’er was so scared that she fell limply on the ground, crying hard. She had been very happy a moment ago, but now, her gaze was filled with horror, as if she had gotten an intense scare.
“What’s the matter, Yao‘er?” Elsa didn’t understand. She squatted down and hugged Yao`er.
Xu Mo dashed over and picked Yao’er up, staring at the young man who was squatting on the ground in front of him. Mia also came running over. Earlier, before she could understand what was happening, Xu Mo had dashed out with an extremely strong reaction, as if he was scared that Yao‘er would be harmed.

Elsa was also frightened by Xu Mo’s action. What happened?
When the squatting young man saw Xu Mo, his eyes narrowed and he stood up slowly. The young man on the motorbike also stared at Xu Mo, his gaze suddenly turning extremely cold.
Why was he still alive?
They had verified that he had stopped breathing
However, there was no way that they’d be wrong in recognizing this young man.
The two of them were the other two murderers who had barged into the house of ‘Xu Mo’ and killed ‘his’ parents. They were brothers and were both very young. If Brother Snake were to find out that they hadn’t taken care of the matter properly, they’d die a horrible death.
Yao’er’s crying voice gradually became softer after being carried in Xu Mo’s arms. However, she still didn’t stop crying. She hugged Xu Mo tightly, burying her face in his arms. It was as if she’d only be able to find a hint of security by doing this.
The event that had taken place that day had clearly left a great trauma in her young heart.
The motorbike continued to make noisy sounds, and the young man who got off sat back on it. Thereafter, the motorbike moved, circling around Xu Mo’s group.
“What do you guys want?” Elsa and Mia had never encountered such a situation before and their countenances changed.
Xu Mo continued to carry Yao’er. While the two men were thinking about what to do, he was also doing the same. It was clearly impractical to kill them here. He’d be completely exposed and the law enforcement team wouldn’t let him off.
However, if he didn’t kill them, would they tell on him after they went back?
Would Cobra come looking for him?
The two men on the motorbike were thinking the same thing. How should they take care of this situation?
No matter what, they had to deal with this matter cleanly before Brother Snake found out about it. Otherwise, they’d be dead!
At this moment, a figure in the distance came charging over, leaping into the air and kicking the two of them off the motorbike. The motorbike then fell to the ground, making sharp and piercing sounds as it rubbed against the ground, sliding toward the streets. The crowd made way, but a few passersby were still knocked over.
The two of them got up and stared coldly at the person who had come over. It was Elsa’s coachman, Cooper. Xu Mo wasn’t surprised. In their previous trip to the main city district, he knew that this coachman also played the role of protecting Elsa.
Elsa’s parents shouldn’t be simple characters.
At this moment, the two thugs got up and stared at Cooper, who stood in front of Elsa and looked at them with a ferocious gaze.
One of them took out a folding knife from his back but was pulled back by the other person behind him. He said, “Let’s go first.”
Putting away the folding knife, the man threw Xu Mo a cold glance. The two of them then turned to walk toward the streets, lifted up the motorbike, and left the place amidst piercing sounds.
“Yao’er, it’s alright now,” Xu Mo consoled softly. Yao’er stopped crying but continued to grab onto Xu Mo’s arm, not willing to come down nor speak. She looked like a completely different person from the previous lively girl.
“Xu Mo, who are those people?” Elsa asked. She felt that the two of them seemed to know Xu Mo.
“I don’t know them,” Xu Mo replied. “Thank you, Miss Elsa.”
There wasn’t a need to tell Elsa about this matter.
“It’s fine.” Elsa shook her head and looked at Xu Mo. She hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m very sorry about what happened the other day.”
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded and carried Yao‘er back, not saying much. He wasn’t in the mood at the moment.
Elsa was stunned for a moment, feeling a little disappointed to see that Xu Mo didn’t pay her any heed. From her conversations with Mia, she had guessed that Xu Mo was the one who had created those pieces of music. This guy was a musical genius.
“Miss Elsa, let’s go back first,” Cooper spoke up. They had been out for a very long time today.
“Alright.” Elsa nodded and said to Mia, “Mia, I’ll come again tomorrow.”
“Alright.” Mia nodded. The two of them bade their goodbyes, and Elsa left on her horse carriage.
After returning to the general store, Xu Mo’s brows continued to be furrowed.
“Xu Mo, what happened?” Bai Wei asked Xu Mo.
“It’s nothing.” Xu Mo shook his head and carried Yao‘er back to his room.
“Yao‘er, get some sleep,” Xu Mo said to Yao‘er.
“Mn.” Yao‘er nodded docilely and lay down quietly, hugging Xu Mo’s leg.
Xu Mo looked at the girl and stroked the gun at his waist. He had brought it out from the abandoned factory.
Other than a gun, he also had hidden weapons on him. In addition to his perception and the improvement of his physical attributes, he now possessed a certain level of strength. However, after seeing Cobra in action today, he should still be a far cry unless he could find a chance to launch a sneak attack, killing his opponent in one try.
Would the two guys tell Cobra about this?

If they did, would Cobra care about an insignificant character like him and come attack him personally?
He could also bring Yao`er with him and leave right now. But if he did so, he’d probably implicate Old Mister Batu.
It seemed that he needed to have a talk with Old Mister Batu.
