Chapter Summaries

Lin Mo explained that he planned to enter Slaughter City for its Divine Slaughter's Domain and the chance of finding a divine inheritance, reassuring Ye Linyuan, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling that he could survive. He left them with confidence in his strength and a willingness to fight his way through Slaughter City if necessary.

• Lin Mo told Ye Linyuan that he believed Slaughter City might contain a complete divine inheritance, and Ye Linyuan, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling reacted with shock before accepting that the risk could be worthwhile.

• Lin Mo decided to seek the domain for his Body Martial Soul and its blood-and-Qi cultivation, rather than give it to Charizard, which had other promising domains of its own.
• When Ye Linyuan asked whether he could escape Slaughter City, Lin Mo claimed he had more than a ninety percent chance of surviving and explained that Soul Bone Skills and Self-Created Soul Skills could still be used there.

He also promised Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling that they could choose more suitable immortal herbs after he returned from Slaughter City.

• Lin Mo told Ye Linyuan to use the Aromatic Silk Beauty to seek the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s protection only if he and the other Titled Douluos faced an overwhelming crisis.
• Ye Linyuan and Dugu Yan questioned whether Ning Fengzhi would risk helping them, and Lin Mo warned them to keep the herb’s effects secret.
• Lin Mo revealed that the Aromatic Silk Beauty could evolve a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, giving Ning Fengzhi a chance to break through his cultivation limit.

• Tang Hao told Tang San that his mother was a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor who sacrificed herself, and that her soul bone and true body had been stolen.
