In the evening, at ChuFeng's house.
The fragrance of the red-braised tyrant dragon meat wafted through the air. Even from afar, one could smell it. Before it was even cooked, the yellow cattle had already grown impatient, trying to rush into the kitchen several times.
On the dining table, there were also a few plates of berries—some bright red, others purple and some yellow. The fruit aroma was refreshing and delightful.
"Dinner is served!"
At these words, the yellow cattle rushed over directly.
A person and a cow fell into a "war," fighting for food. During distribution, disputes easily arose when someone got more or less than the other.
"The meat is so fresh and delicious!" Chu Feng exclaimed. The tyrant dragon, who mastered a certain breathing technique, had undergone physical changes and evolved; its flesh contained mysterious substances.
After a busy day, they finally enjoyed dinner late in the evening, with both having great appetites.
Chu Feng browsed the news in the evening, watching various reports about extraordinary people while paying special attention to the movements in the Taihang Mountains.
"Thousands, even tens of thousands, of extraordinary people have gathered in the Taihang Mountains..."
This report caused a sensation, with many discussing that the northern mountains would soon be unsettled, possibly leading to large-scale battles.
Many reports highlighted Tian Shen Bio-tech, which was determined to obtain the mysterious fruit this time, preparing adequately, even sending top executives.
Even a profile picture of Lin Nuoyi was seen by Chu Feng. Despite being a side view, she was still stunningly beautiful, cold yet attractive, causing many to exclaim.
Is this one of the high-level executives of Tian Shen Bio-tech? She's too beautiful.
Many were amazed, not expecting such a young woman among the executives, making many hearts flutter.
"She has an ethereal charm, much prettier than those so-called popular actresses."
"What a pity, only a side view was shown. Who can release a close-up photo?"
Reporters didn't expect that a news image, a secretly taken photo, would attract more attention than the main article, causing quite a stir.
Similarly, some reports focused on Puti Genes, suggesting a possible direct confrontation with Tian Shen Bio-tech.
Over the past two days, continuous news emerged of conflicts between the two major conglomerates, with casualties on both sides.
Then, Chu Feng read some reports about powerful extraordinary people across different regions, whose methods were described as shocking and akin to mythological tales.
"With the ripening of the exotic fruits, strong contenders vie for supremacy. Who will stand out?"
A highly influential media outlet created a special page for public discussion.
As a result, posts about Vajra and Silver-Winged Heavenly God dominated the screen. Could anyone surpass them? It was confirmed that these two would definitely attend.
Even, someone revealed that the two top figures had already clashed once, with their ultimate showdown set in the Taihang Mountains.
Once the mysterious fruit on the peculiar small tree ripened, it would be the moment for them to decide the winner.
"Will Huoling come? Will White Tiger King appear? If these two also arrive, then all four top figures will gather, truly exciting!"
"I hope those two extraordinary people show up. Then, the battle between dragons and tigers will climax in the Taihang Mountains, to see who is the strongest."
"Forget it, if those top figures really come, what chance do you and I have? Their casual strikes cannot be blocked even by combined efforts."
...
The special page sparked heated discussions, attracting countless eyes.
Following this, a gambling company timely launched betting services on who was stronger among Silver-Winged Heavenly God, Vajra, Huoling, and White Tiger King, allowing anyone to place bets.
They also introduced a so-called Top 100 Strongest list for betting.
This caused a huge uproar but undeniably drew significant attention, with many participating personally and placing bets.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves!
That night, the executives of the gambling company laughed until their faces went numb due to the overwhelming response and numerous participants.
Ultimately, Silver-Winged Heavenly God gained extra favor, with his popularity far ahead. Many believed he was the strongest!
Subsequently, a survey found that his lead over the other three powerful figures was due to a leaked combat video.
After the video played, his popularity skyrocketed, drawing widespread attention.
In the footage, his moves were clean and decisive, invincible, showcasing mythical prowess and an unbeatable demeanor.
Moreover, his tall figure, silver hair cascading down, made him look extremely perfect, carrying silver wings, standing aloft like a deity descending upon the earth, exceptionally transcendent.
Many young women found him exceptionally handsome, with an impressive style, creating a favorable first impression, leading to a psychological inclination towards him as the strongest.
Undoubtedly, the gambling company's move was highly successful, attracting eighty percent of the attention, prompting many companies to follow suit.
For a time, online discussions surged continuously.
Due to various topics and discussions, all kinds of information circulated, constantly catching people's attention.
"Do you think that young woman with just a side profile has any relation to Silver-Winged Heavenly God?"
"Definitely, both within Tian Shen Bio-tech, how could they not be related? Now that you mention it, thinking carefully, they seem quite compatible."
"True, even though it's just a side view, she looks like a goddess-level figure, quite fitting for Silver-Winged Heavenly God."
...
No one expected that merely a leaked video and a side-profile photo could become hot topics, sparking widespread discussions.
This left some media outlets at a loss, rushing to dig deeper for further reporting.
That night was destined not to be peaceful, filled with numerous trending topics, as many learned that the fruit in the Taihang Mountains was about to ripen.
Perhaps it could be picked tomorrow, inevitably leading to a massive storm in the Taihang Mountains!
"Hard to endure, hoping for dawn to come early, wanting to know tomorrow's outcome."
Many eagerly awaited, even those not extraordinary, unable to participate in the competition, feeling enthusiastic about the arrival of the next day.
Storms loomed over the Taihang Mountains!
Many waited, gathering attention from all directions.
After reading various reports and gaining sufficient understanding, Chu Feng put away his communicator.
Morning, with the sun rising brightly.
Despite heading into the Taihang Mountains, Chu Feng did not neglect the mysterious breathing technique.
He felt as if he were in a blazing furnace, golden light rising from his body like flames or golden waves, surging powerfully, astonishingly.
Quickly finishing, as the process indeed wasn't long.
Thunder rumbled, bones and organs vibrating, as if lightning spread, cleansing his entire body, effectively purifying every part.
After brief pain, came indescribable comfort!
The Great Thunder Sound Breathing Technique, even severely incomplete, showed some effects.
"Alright, let's go into the mountains!" Chu Feng called to the yellow cattle.
Suddenly, he listened intently, sensing something—vehicles approaching his house on the street, and not just a few.
So many cars so early in the morning coming towards his house?
Puzzled, Chu Feng handed a large bag of sauced tyrant dragon meat to the yellow cattle, originally intended for the road, asking it to take it back inside to hide.
Indeed, his judgment was correct, as those vehicles stopped outside his door.
Chu Feng acted swiftly, packing arrows, animal skins, etc.
Someone knocked forcefully on the door, not quietly, with many people outside, but not noisy.
Opening the door, Chu Feng saw dozens of vehicles parked, blocking the road.
Many stood outside, sharp-eyed, protecting a heavily armored limousine, clearly a super bulletproof car, entirely glossy black.
Someone opened the car door, inviting the occupants out.
A man and a woman, neither ordinary, stepped out, both with distinguished demeanors.
The man appeared around thirty-five, wearing a snow-white shirt, looking scholarly and calm, handsome, with a composed aura.
Very serene, after getting out, he looked towards Chu Feng, observing him.
Beside him, a woman in her mid-twenties, with phoenix eyes and sexy lips, although not as beautiful as Lin Nuoyi, was undoubtedly a great beauty, exuding a charming aura.
Seeing her, Chu Feng's heart skipped a beat, guessing her identity due to her resemblance to someone.
Xu Wanqing's older sister! He deduced.
Thus, the man's identity could be inferred as well, likely Lin Nuoyi's uncle, Lin Yeyu, rumored to be marrying Xu Wanqing's sister soon.
Around them were a dozen extraordinary people, closely guarding them.
Lin Yeyu walked forward, observing Chu Feng calmly, showing no particular expression.
As for Xu Wanqing's sister, she held onto his arm, walking beside him, her phoenix eyes gleaming, scrutinizing Chu Feng carefully.
None spoke, all eyes fixed on Chu Feng, some examining, others hostile, and some indifferent.
Bang!
Unexpectedly, Chu Feng slammed the door shut.
Everyone was surprised by his action.
Seeing this, Lin Yeyu slightly paused, then smiled, saying, "You've got character."
An extraordinary person approached, knocking hard on the door.
Ignoring them, Chu Feng sat on a rattan chair in the yard. Since these people remained silent, rudely examining him, he decided to return the treatment, speaking not a word, leaving them facing a closed door.
"Open the door!"
"Open up quickly, we have business!"
Someone knocked and shouted.
Chu Feng sipped half a cup of tea, seeing they were restrained, not forcing entry, then concisely responded with one word, "Speak."
Meaning, speak if you have something to say.
"Mr. Chu, please open the door, we have a few questions, and we'll leave immediately after talking." Clearly, it was the woman, Xu Wanqing's sister, speaking.
Seeing the main person speak, Chu Feng opened the door.
"Good, calm under pressure, and courageous." After meeting again, the scholarly-looking Lin Yeyu commented.
"Please sit." Chu Feng indicated, neither humble nor arrogant, without pressing for details since the other party hadn't spoken.
"My sister, was she killed by someone behind you?" Xu Wanqing's sister asked directly, her eyes revealing strange light, containing mysterious power.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Chu Feng replied.
At that moment, he sensed a mental fluctuation approaching him, very subtle.
"My sister is Xu Wanqing." The woman said.
"Oh..." Chu Feng drew out the sound, appearing surprised, "She was a very annoying woman, dead?"
Coldness flashed in the woman's eyes but quickly vanished, asking again, "Was her death unrelated to you?"
"Unrelated." Chu Feng answered calmly.
In fact, his heart churned, sensing a strange mental fluctuation compelling him to reveal his innermost thoughts.
But he resisted, responding simply, seeming sincere.
Disappointed, the woman's mysterious gaze faded, remaining silent, obviously unimpressed with Chu Feng, looking at him coldly.
"You're good." Lin Yeyu patted Chu Feng's shoulder, smiling warmly, then turned to leave.
Xu Wanqing's sister followed, holding his arm, with other extraordinary people dispersing to protect them.
Before boarding the car, Lin Yeyu glanced back at Chu Feng, flashing his white teeth, smiling brightly against the dawn, yet exuding dominance, "You're good, but stay away from Nuoyi in the future, better not to interact anymore!"
"Tell that to Nuoyi yourself, it won't work on me." Chu Feng replied.
"I advise you to quietly leave. You belong to different worlds, can you compare to Mu? Let alone match Silver-Winged Heavenly God!" Lin Yeyu finished, entering the car.
Dozens of vehicles departed, disappearing from Qingyang Town.
"Yellow cattle, let's go into the mountains, hunting!" Chu Feng shouted, slinging the Great Thunder Sound Bow and loading Dragon Tooth Bone Arrows.
"Moo!" The yellow cattle darted out."
