Chapter 281: Golden Day Skill!_2
Nine True Gods correspond to nine sequences, with no such path.
"Martial Artist."
Chen Feng said calmly, and Trin's eyes flickered slightly.
Martial Artist Sequence?
It always sounded somewhat fitting.
Soon after, after a brief conversation, Chen Feng looked out the window.
Soldiers in coats, armed, were appearing on the street, seeming to be searching for something.
"After Bernard died, that Viscount Mod was furious, deploying Hurricane Island Guards to search everywhere."
"All the fleets coming and going from Hurricane Island have been inspected because of this."
Trin sensed his confusion and proactively offered a few explanations.
Chen Feng understood, yet wasn't afraid of being traced back to the Red Flame Fleet.
He did things cleanly at that time, using some means for both departure and appearance.
Then, he glanced at the distant sea outside the window.
The fleet flag of the Red Scepter was still flying, and Hurricane Island seemed bustling and peaceful.
In the end, without lingering, he didn't use the Black Dream Mark either.
He left the fleet company and quietly returned to the Earth Star Martial Arts Hall.
Meanwhile, in the noble estate on Hurricane Island,
"Still haven't found the murderer?"
The man with brown hair in a ponytail frowned heavily, his stature somewhat short among adults, with a face rather fierce.
The subordinates were somewhat terrified, only nodding quietly.
"Useless!"
With impatience, Viscount Mod cursed.
Pacing left and right in place, that list was intended as a gift for his father at the birthday banquet.
Growing more irritable until the subordinates nervously offered a suggestion.
"Sir, doesn't Lady Soya have an extraordinary item?"
"If..."
He didn't finish saying, but the pacing suddenly stopped.
Just then, sounds came from outside the study room, a boy's voice urging loudly.
"Uncle, Uncle!!"
"Where's the mermaid you promised me!"
....
Boom!
In Nanjiang City, a vehicle braked suddenly by the roadside, nearly hitting a pedestrian.
The sounds of swearing rang out, but most people kept their heads down, looking at their phones, or looked up at the external screen on the mall wall.
[Recently, our City Association combat team went to Luo River City Suburb and eradicated a hideout of the Evil God Church, rescuing twenty-seven hostages!]
[This church is the Snake Spirit Sect, also the culprit of the Luo River City explosion case.... Our City Association has given high importance to this matter, and began as early as last week....]
"Solved it."
"It seems the City Association is quite capable."
"This Evil God Church is really disgusting, everyone should be more careful in the future."
Watching the news report, many people were relieved.
Quiet conversations spread among the street crowd, as Chen Feng glanced from the back seat of a black car.
The destruction of the Luo River City Evil God Church had already been announced, which Chu Shihong had told him in advance.
Therefore, the City Association planned to hold a commendation ceremony, requesting him to attend.
He originally didn't plan to go, but....
"There's actually a reward of Advanced Life Potion."
His eyes flickered, recalling the eerie black bat and investigation follow-ups, so he agreed to this matter, heading to the Union Building.
The road was bustling, he saw many large flat flying cars, carrying numerous special materials, flying over Nanjiang City.
The construction of high walls had long begun, with many local large companies participating in bids.
However, mainly spearheaded by Sky Shield Heavy Industry, Black Crystal Group, and several other ultra-large groups from Yun Gang.
"Perhaps it's soon."
Watching the swift flight of cargo flying cars in mid-air, Chen Feng knew, a new Nanjiang was about to take shape.
Online discussions were already fermenting, with many speculating about the purpose of the high walls being built there.
Regarding this, Chen Feng took a brief look at his phone and then ignored it.
Eventually, as the Union Building loomed ahead, the black car slowly decelerated and parked.
"Chen, we've arrived."
Zhao Jushan accompanied him, respectfully opened the car door.
His aura was increasingly harmonious, thanks to the Holy Flame Awakening Method, he already felt slightly touching the True Intent.
"Hmm."
Stepping out of the car, dress shoes touched the ground.
The black wool coat was simply tidied up, and Chen Feng saw several flying cars landing nearby.
Armed genetic enhancement people, mechanical martial individuals carrying briefcases, and tall, burly transformed people.
One after another, powerful security personnel appeared here, wearing headsets or wireless communicators, gathered behind their respective councilmen.
In comparison, the simplicity of his travel could be said to be to the extreme.
"Councilman Chen, impressive."
"Indeed, not surprising for Councilman Chen, the Snake Spirit Sect vanished just like that."
"Councilman Chen, I admire you."
Several councilmen approached with smiles, proactively showing goodwill.
Even if some of them had once been friendly with Zhao Jianlong and were not particularly favorable towards him at the last meeting.
Strength is the best proof of earning respect, this saying was proven true again.
Chen Feng nodded slightly and responded with a few words, also noticing the elders of Luo Yue and Li Chengdong.
"Councilman Chen."
"Councilman Li, Councilman Luo."
Chen Feng smiled and nodded, showing a slightly more gentle attitude than with others.
These two had always maintained goodwill towards him due to their juniors, including the deployment of action teams and the eradication of the Evil God Church, they had taken the initiative to shoulder these responsibilities.
On one hand, they came from the military and the Security Bureau, with ample relevant action experience.
On the other hand, it was also at the request of Chu Shihong, to provide support and take on some of the action responsibilities for him.
"You're welcome, if not for you, things might have taken a turn that day."
"Indeed, as Old Luo said, no mistake, I was in the command room then and was scared stiff, it was truly thrilling."
Li Pinghai, Li Chengdong's biological grandfather, although over sixty years old, looked vigorous and spoke with a resonant voice.
The other councilmen, not knowing the exact details, now looked deeply at Chen Feng upon hearing this.
With a slight smile and without saying much, Chen Feng was soon surrounded and led into the interior of the Union Building, taking the elevator directly to the top floor.
"By the way, Councilman Chen, I heard you are acquainted with Yang Wudi?"
Inside the elevator, Li Pinghai suddenly spoke.
In the narrow space, others perked up their ears.
"I met him a few times in Suluo back then."
Though puzzled by the other's inquiry, Chen Feng gave a simple response.
In reality, he and Yang Wudi could be considered to have some relationship, having experienced the Black Tide disaster of Suo Jia together and fought side by side.
However, he never liked to exaggerate, so he didn't say much.
"Then do you know about Yang Wudi's recent matters, Councilman Chen?"
Li Pinghai asked with a smile, the face under his gray-white hair lined with wrinkles.
"Oh?"
Chen Feng was surprised, while the other smiled, not minding the presence of others.
"When I was young, I used to move around with the embassies abroad, and got to know some people from surrounding countries."
"Yesterday, while reminiscing with a friend, I heard that a shocking battle broke out in Niduo Country, and two martial artists damaged the Ni City Palace."
The tone paused, and the people inside the elevator were somewhat startled.
Niduo Country, located south of Suluo.
Though merely a small country, it had some strength, yet the palace was damaged by others.
"Was Yang Wudi one of them?" Chen Feng asked.
"Yes."
Li Pinghai nodded gently, his smile restrained.
"The satellites captured his photo, although the matter is too significant and damaging to the reputation, so Niduo has sealed the news."
"Yet, Niduo Country has issued a wanted notice for him, and his whereabouts are currently unknown."
Chen Feng's heart trembled, but soon he felt puzzled again.
"Who was the other person?"
To warrant Yang Wudi's action and cause such a commotion.
It couldn't be a weakling.
"My friend didn't tell me."
Li Pinghai shook his head as the ascending elevator slowly decelerated to a stop, producing a dinging sound.
"However, I did hear from another friend about this matter."
"Oh?"
The elevator doors slowly opened, yet no one stepped out.
Even those unfamiliar with Yang Wudi, or the martial arts world, stayed inside the elevator, ears perked to listen.
"Over a decade ago, a martial artist at the absolute peak of the Extreme Realm was very active in the war-torn regions of the Eastern Continent, but later he silently retired and never appeared again."
"Many have speculated about his identity without answers, until recent years...."
Li Pinghai looked at Chen Feng, speaking earnestly.
"There are rumors that he hails from the Nido Royal Family."
"He may very well be connected to the Star Palace."
