Jiangning was a very large city.
Chu Feng's group arrived in a low-profile manner and didn't alarm anyone. Many people thought they were in Jiangxi.
At this time, the outside world was discussing Chu Feng. His daring to fight to the death with the marine race was definitely a major event.
Many people were discussing how powerful Chu Feng was because his accomplishments were simply too outstanding. He had already surpassed ordinary king level entities with six severed shackles.
Otherwise, how could he have killed Hei Teng, Qian Yue, and the Nine-lives Cat?
In the end, some people believed that the current Chu Feng could be ranked among the top ten experts of the East. This was a shocking ranking even though not everyone agreed with it.
The old llama of Kunlun, the mountain tortoise of Kongtong, the golden-winged roc of Mount Hua … these people were considered to be among the top ten experts.
Comparatively speaking, Chu Feng was too young. His rise was simply too fast compared to those old demons who had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, the fact that Chu Feng was mentioned as one of the top ten experts of the East was a form of acknowledgement.
What followed was the secret of his rise. Needless to say, many people guessed that it had something to do with the breathing technique he had mastered.
However, no one dared to act blindly without thinking. This was a demon king who had devoured the Black Dragon Crown Prince and even overturned the corporations.
Celestial Biology, Lin Family.
Xu Wanyi had been alternating between joy and sorrow recently. She was naturally happy when Chu Feng was on the verge of death, but she was in a terrible mood after Chu Feng's return.
Her sister, Xu Wanqing, had joined forces with the Mu family's young master to deal with Chu Feng. In the end, both of them died in Mount Taihang. This caused her to view Chu Feng with hatred and wanted to take revenge.
But after Chu Feng became a king level expert, she no longer dared to attack.
"Fighting to the death with the marine race and offending the Elder Dragon King of the Southern Sea." Xu Wanyi laughed.
The Elder Dragon King of the Southern Sea had a thousand and five hundred years of cultivation. Currently, he was searching for the draconification fruit in the depths of the ocean. Otherwise, he would have arrived on land in person.
"Eh, why is it so lively up ahead?" Xu Wanyi was astonished.
The Lin family was a big family with a large population. They owned many houses in this villa district. At this moment, the noise attracted her attention.
"Young madam, it's not good. I heard that Demon King Chu has arrived!" Her trusted aide came to report.
"What? Isn't he in Jiangxi?" Xu Wanyi was very flustered. She had targeted Chu Feng several times and even implicated his parents. She was very afraid of this devil king's revenge.
Then, she received news that Chu Feng specifically wanted to see her, and it was now.
Xu Wanyi's face was deathly pale, and she fell to the ground with a thud. She was so frightened that she fainted.
At this time, a few important members of the Lin Family personally came to greet Chu Feng, inviting him into the guest hall. Even a few elders of great age appeared, personally accompanying him.
They did not expect Chu Feng to come to Jiangning so quickly and directly visit the Lin family.
Linnoy was not here, but she had received news that she would be back in a day or two.
The Lin family's mood was complicated. They were somewhat apprehensive, but also rejoicing. In the past, they had never imagined that Chu Feng could reach this step in such a short time.
They acknowledged Chu Feng's strength. After the upheavals, this kind of person was needed by all parties.
But there were also some criticisms among them. They felt that Chu Feng was not reserved enough and that his methods were too extreme. He was notorious among the corporations and had offended too many people.
Some of them understood the nature of the upheavals and knew how terrifying the corporations' foundations were. That was because they themselves were corporations.
"Chu Feng, you and Lin Naoi are classmates and have a good relationship. We won't treat you as an outsider, so please don't mind our harsh words," an old man said.
He was one of Linnoy's granduncles. He was quite old, but his face was ruddy and his spirit was hale and hearty.
"This can only be considered the early stages of the upheaval. No one can say for sure what will happen in the future."
He had just mentioned to Chu Feng that it wasn't good to continue killing like this. He tactfully advised that no one in this world could be invincible and that he should consider the future.
Chu Feng nodded humbly after hearing this and didn't refute it.
All in all, the atmosphere wasn't bad and nothing unpleasant happened. That was because Chu Feng had already confirmed that the Lin family hadn't arranged for a king level expert to deal with him.
So much so that the Lin family told him that the Mu family hadn't done so either.
This astonished Chu Feng.
In truth, he had come to Jiangning mainly to target the Mu family. He believed that with Linnoy around, the Celestial Biology Lin family wouldn't oppose him. The Mu family, on the other hand, had always been hostile toward him.
"The Mu family is currently seeking stability and waiting for the next upheaval. They probably haven't gotten involved," the old man informed.
Finally, Xu Wanyi arrived with a forced smile on her face. Even though she was in the Celestial Biology Lin family, she was still worried that Chu Feng would kill her at the slightest disagreement.
To the corporate powers, Chu Feng had almost been demonized. He had conquered two major corporations in a single day and had sent heads rolling. Who wouldn't be afraid?
She was someone who had an old grudge against Chu Feng and was now extremely afraid. Moreover, her husband Lin Yeyu wasn't here at the moment.
Some people from the Lin family knew a bit about the situation and tried to smooth things over, hoping that Chu Feng would let this matter go.
Chu Feng stared at her and really wanted to slap her to death. But after some thought, he didn't act out on the spot. However, there wasn't much of a smile on his face either.
He directly mentioned that Xu Wanyi's methods were outstanding and had actually involved his family. He had wanted to pay a visit to the Lin family more than once.
This caused the Lin family members' expressions to change. This demon king's words weren't pleasant at all. He had visited the Archaic Alliance and the Extraterrestrial Research Institute before, but what had happened in the end?
Some people from the Lin family looked at Xu Wanyi with unkind expressions, but there were also some who sympathized with her.
In the end, Xu Wanyi collapsed with a thud and fainted once again.
Chu Feng was helpless. He really hadn't planned to cut off her head under such a harmonious atmosphere, but in the end, she couldn't help but be frightened.
At his level, it was too easy to kill this woman. He didn't even need to do it himself, all he had to do was force the Lin family.
But today, he didn't want to do so.
"I hope she doesn't have any evil thoughts," Chu Feng said.
In the end, he couldn't leave. The Lin family was very hospitable and had arranged a well-decorated villa for him.
The Lin family told him that Linnoy would be back soon. They all knew that there was a story between the two of them.
"What do you think?" Within a secret room, several important characters of the Lin family were discussing. The building materials here were quite special and could isolate them from the outside world. There was no need to fear the divine instincts of king level entities.
"Extraordinary strength and rapid rise. He might really grow into a great tree, but this is only from an evolutionary point of view."
"Even if he can protect his body, his future path will be full of twists and turns."
The Lin family members were discussing. They acknowledged Chu Feng's talent for evolution, but they felt that he wasn't reserved enough and that his future prospects weren't very bright.
Not to mention what would happen when the corporations went all out, he might not even be able to pass the marine race's trial. Did he really think that the Elder Dragon King's 1500 years of cultivation was fake?
"Some people in the clan hope that Lin Naoi can be with him."
"They don't know anything. Tell them to shut up!"
Chu Feng stayed with the Lin family for a day and then left for the hotel to find the black yak and the Manchurian Tiger.
Finally, they arrived at the Mu family.
The Mu family sought stability, so none of their direct descendants were present. Apparently, they were worried that Chu Feng would take the opportunity to attack them. The defeat of the two corporations had long since touched their nerves.
Those who stayed behind told Chu Feng that the Mu family hadn't taken action!
Afterward, he contacted Linnoy and asked for confirmation. The answer he received was that the Mu family really hadn't attacked.
Chu Feng was fairly astonished that the Mu family, who had enmity with him, hadn't acted rashly. On the contrary, the Archaic Alliance and the Extraterrestrial Research Institute had taken action.
The affairs of the world were truly unpredictable. He sighed lightly.
"When will you be back?" Chu Feng asked Linnoy.
"I should arrive at Jiangning tomorrow."
News of Chu Feng's appearance in Jiangning leaked out and caused quite a commotion.
Soon, more and more people felt that he might be qualified to be ranked among the top ten experts.
Many people thought that he was going to attack the Celestial Biology Institute, but they found that he was quite peaceful and there were no signs of a war.
"Don't tell me he's going to become the Lin family's son-in-law?" Some people who hoped to see a war said sourly.
At noon, just as the sun was blazing, something strange happened in Jiangning. Dozens of vines descended from the sky and reached the city.
Similar things happened in Shuntian, Gusu, and Hangcheng.
Following which, the same thing happened in the skies above some of the major cities in the west.
People everywhere were astonished. What was going on?
In the past, plants had grown in space and even threatened satellites. In the end, they were all destroyed by missiles. Could it be that something similar had happened?
However, this time, after taking photos from the sky and monitoring satellites, people were shocked to find that this wasn't the case at all.
These vines seemed to have grown out of thin air and rooted themselves in the void. There was no sign of their roots.
Chu Feng immediately ordered the Golden Condor King to take him into the air to see what was going on. Yellow cattle also followed with a solemn expression.
These vines were like ropes. Some fell from tens of thousands of meters in the air, while others fell from hundreds of meters. Moreover, they were all different in color.
Some were lush green, some purple, but all of them were very sturdy.
Chu Feng found a blue vine and dropped it from three thousand meters in the air. The vine was only as thick as an arm from top to bottom. There were no changes to it, and it was an intoxicating blue color.
They arrived at its source and found a ball of mist a meter in diameter.
As Chu Feng was about to approach, Yellow cattle pulled him back and said, "Don't go near it."
They observed for a while and found that there was a ball of mist at the source of all the vines, but it wasn't very big.
Finally, Chu Feng summoned his flying sword and approached the mist. Soon, a clanging sound came from the scarlet sword as if it had been hit by something.
His expression changed. With a swoosh, he instantly recalled the flying sword and carefully observed it. He couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.
"Could it be that another great change has arrived?" Chu Feng muttered to himself.
That day, some mutants were very daring. They climbed up the vines and disappeared into the mist!
"The Stairway to Heaven is connected to the world of immortals!"
Just like that, a rumor began to spread.
Most people didn't dare to act rashly. They didn't want to take the risk, but there were still some who climbed up and disappeared into the mist.
