Early morning the next day, Xu Mo was already seated cross-legged. Many metal poker cards were circling around him, as though there was an energy field propping them up.
Little Qi helped to get him these. There were many useful machines and equipment in the old factory. Although Little Qi was only 15 years old, he was very talented at working with machinery.
Xu Mo controlled the poker cards carefully, and they flew back to his side, stacking together and landing in front of him. “Hu…” Xu Mo exhaled and opened his eyes. The origin energy he could control had gotten stronger, and he could use psychokinesis to control multiple poker cards concurrently. After killing Cobra, he should be able to relax a little, right?
Previously, he killed the four murderers who had barged into ‘his house’ in succession, but the risks remained. The four of them were just the ones carrying out the act, and it was Cobra who had given them the orders to do so.
As for who else was behind him, Xu Mo did not know. After killing Cobra, perhaps the identity would be lost forever.
At this moment, there were sounds coming from outside. It was Mia who had woken up early. After washing up, Mia heard a knock on the door downstairs, so she went downstairs and opened the shop door.
“Good morning, Elder Sister Bai Wei.” Mia smiled and greeted her.
“Good morning, Miss Mia,” Bai Wei replied. “I’ll prepare breakfast.”
“No need. I’ll do it. Elder Sister Bai Wei doesn’t know what Xu Mo and Yao’er like to eat,” Mia said with a smile.
“Mn, alright.” Bai Wei didn’t insist but smiled and nodded.
Xu Mo got up as well, heading downstairs after washing up. He then greeted them, “Good morning Miss Mia, good morning Elder Sister Bai Wei.”
“Good morning Xu Mo,” replied the two of them while smiling.
“Xu Mo, are you heading out today?” Mia asked Xu Mo.
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded.
Mia seemed to be thinking about something. She then said to Bai Wei, “Elsa has invited me many times and I’m thinking of going to her house today. If I’m going alone, I won’t be bringing Yao‘er along. Elder Sister Bai Wei, can you help to take care of Yao‘er? I’ll also tell Father not to go out today.”
Elsa had been coming quite frequently recently, so in turn, she also wanted to invite Mia to her house as a guest.
“Alright.” Bai Wei smiled and nodded.
“Thank you, Elder Sister Bai Wei.” Mia said, “Then, I’ll go and prepare breakfast.”
When Xu Mo heard their conversation, he also broke into a smile. Yao‘er didn’t receive such treatment in the past, as there was no one to shower her with love.
Sitting in front of the counter of the general store, Xu Mo looked outside.
“Xu Mo, Miss Mia is so nice,” Bai Wei said to Xu Mo. She thought that Xu Mo would be able to understand her since they shared similar fates.
At the general store, she could feel some warmth because Miss Mia had never treated her like a servant.
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded seriously. With Mia’s existence, this general store seemed to not blend well with the outside world.
“Then you’ll have to treat Miss Mia better in the future.” Bai Wei looked at Xu Mo’s gaze with a ‘meaningful’ smile.
“Of course. I’ll always protect Miss Mia,” Xu Mo replied. But since Bai Wei saw him looking outside, she had no idea if he really understood her words.
After having breakfast, there were gradually more and more passersby on the road. The general store started to get some business too.
Xu Mo and the other two sat in front of the counter with nothing to do. Yao`er was there as well.
At this moment, an extremely conspicuous figure appeared by the street, walking over in their direction.
“So beautiful.” When Bai Wei saw the woman walking over, she whispered. It wasn’t just the case for males. Females also liked to look at beautiful women.
The woman who was walking toward them had a height of 1.75 meters and was wearing tightly-fitted leather clothes and short heeled leather boots, bringing out her figure perfectly. Her long and slender legs were the envy of many women.
Not only was she beautiful, but she also looked valiant and had a heroic disposition to her. When she walked up to them, Bai Wei was actually a little nervous. “Hello, Miss. What do you need?”
Ye Qingdie looked at Bai Wei and Mia, and then at Xu Mo.
This kid was young but knew how to live!
He seemed to be leading a very comfortable life.
“Elder sister is so beautiful,” said Yao’er, who was sitting on Xu Mo’s lap. She sounded very well-behaved.
“Is that so?” Ye Qingdie smiled brightly and looked at Yao`er. “What’s your name?”
“My name is Yao‘er,” Yao‘er replied.
“Yao’er.” Ye Qingdie pinched Yao’er’s face and looked at Xu Mo. “Aren’t you going to introduce us?”
“This is Miss Mia, and this is Elder Sister Bai Wei,” Xu Mo introduced.
He then pointed to Ye Qingdie and looked at the two of them. “This is Sister Die.”
“Ye Qingdie.” Ye Qingdie nodded at the two of them. Mia and Bai Wei clearly hadn’t regained their senses yet and were a little stunned.
So, this beautiful older sister was here to look for Xu Mo.
When Ye Qingdie saw their reaction, she smiled and said to Xu Mo, “Shall we go?”
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded and handed Yao’er to Mia. “Miss Mia, I’ll be going out.”
“Sure.” Mia nodded.

Xu Mo then walked out and Ye Qingdie also turned around to leave.
Now, Mia and Bai Wei looked at their backs in a daze.
“Xu Mo has been going out every day these days. So it’s really…” Bai Wei said in a soft voice.
She then closed her mouth again, feeling a little strange. Although Ye Qingdie was very beautiful, she was much older than Xu Mo.
“She looks really pretty,” Mia smiled and said, but there seemed to be a hint of sourness in her smile.
“You’re quite lucky with the ladies, Younger Brother Xu Mo,” said Ye Qingdie while smiling at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo could not be bothered to reply.
“Are older sisters your type?” Ye Qingdie smiled ambiguously. Be it Mia or Bai Wei, they were both older sisters.
Xu Mo continued to ignore her. The two of them then walked to another street and met up with Seth and the rest. Little Qi and Fang Ze were also there. Together with Ye Qingdie and Xu Mo, there were a total of five people. They were carrying bags on their backs, and it was obvious that they had combat equipment. They had come much more prepared this time.
The last time they went to the church, it was an impromptu decision since their tracking of the leads had led them there.
“Where’s the silver-masked man?” Xu Mo asked. The silver-masked man who had helped them stop Cobra in the black market should be very strong. He could fight Cobra alone.
“He’s already waiting,” Little Qi said.
“Let’s go.” The group set off.
There were no tall buildings on either side of Strand Street. They were all two to three stories high, and the road in the middle was very wide. The people who lived here all had quite good living conditions, and this was the district for the rich.
Most of the buildings on both sides were stores, with a machinery vibe.
There were endless people and cars passing by.
In a room on the second floor, Xu Mo and Seth opened up the window and looked at the street outside. They had given the owner federal coins and rented it for a day. As for Little Qi and Fang Ze, they were on the opposite side. Meanwhile, Ye Qingdie found a high spot and was a distance away from them.
Seth was opening and disassembling his equipment. He said to Xu Mo, “Xu Mo, Sister Die told me to bring you an origin energy battle blade and battle armor. However, the battle armor is simpler. It’s the most basic type. We aren’t able to get our hands on more advanced equipment.”
Xu Mo walked up and put on the battle armor. It wasn’t that fitting. After all, it was basic armor but could still fend off bullets.
Other than that, he still had battle blades, a gun, and metal poker cards as hidden weapons. He could be considered to be one of the more well-equipped ones.
“When will Cobra be coming?” Xu Mo asked.
“I don’t know. Wait for Sister Die’s gunshot.” Seth was more simple-minded and didn’t care about those things.
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded. “Is it certain that he’ll pass by here?”
“That’s what the lead we received said,” Seth replied. “They didn’t know anything too concrete either. They were just in charge of carrying out the mission.”
The organization clearly didn’t just have this small group. There were many other people, and there were many things that Ye Qingdie hadn’t told him.
“Don’t blame Sister Die for not telling you too many details. Until now, you haven’t agreed to join us. Meanwhile, Sister Die has put a lot of effort into you and trained you personally. I didn’t get such treatment when I joined.” Seth seemed to know what Xu Mo was thinking and said this to him.
“That’s training?” Xu Mo mumbled in his heart. He was suspecting that Ye Qingdie was a s*dist.
“I understand.” Xu Mo wasn’t one who couldn’t recognize other people’s good intentions. It was true that he hadn’t agreed to join their organization yet, so Ye Qingdie naturally didn’t have the obligation to tell him everything.
However, killing Cobra was their common
goal.
“Did Sister Die join earlier than you?” Xu Mo asked.
“Mn.” Seth nodded. “I joined the latest. Back then, I got into a conflict with someone and was locked up by the law enforcement team. My wife went to plead with them, wanting to save me, but those b*stards…”
Seth paused when he said this. Even though a very long time had passed, he still couldn’t forget that humiliation and hatred.
“Later on, I joined the fighting arena, wanting to die there. It was Sister Die and Uncle Fang who found me,” Seth spoke up. “Just like that, I became a member of the organization and killed the two enemies who had harmed me back then.”
Xu Mo fell silent. The members of this organization might all be people who had experienced the Subterranean World’s darkness and were left with no way out.
Back then, the reason Uncle Fang and Ye Qingdie had followed him was probably to find out about his background.
“Little Qi’s background is very pitiful too. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have joined the organization from such a young age. Even though he looks cold, he’s a pitiful person.” Seth continued to say, “You’ll know after the fighting starts later.”
“Mn.” Xu Mo nodded. Seth was a straightforward guy. He could tell this back from when Seth trained with him. He was very honest.
The members of this small group should all have their stories, so Xu Mo wondered what Ye Qingdie had gone through.
Time passed by slowly, and more and more people appeared on Strand Street. Xu Mo then took a look at the moving crowd and frowned slightly. He noticed that there were people walking to and fro along the street.

Xu Mo expanded his perception, covering an area of the street. His brain instantly moved like a machine, and all the actions of the people passing through the street were displayed in his mind.
His frown increased in severity as he seemed to notice something off. He didn’t know if he was overthinking things or not.
In the distance, a horse carriage was driving over in their direction. The young lady on the horse carriage was chatting happily.
“Mia.” A strange expression appeared in Xu Mo’s eyes. That was Elsa’s horse carriage. Elsa was on the horse carriage with Mia, and it drove past the room he was in. He then heard Elsa speaking to Mia. “It’s just right in front and we’ll be reaching soon.”
Clearly, Elsa’s house was in the area. She had gone to fetch Mia earlier and they were now heading toward her house together.
