The great city, Jiangning.

Chu Feng’s party arrived in a low-key manner without alarming other people. Many still believed they were at Jiangxi.

At this time, the heated discussions regarding Chu Feng were still in full swing. Chu Feng dared to blatantly oppose the marine race—this was indeed a major incident.

Many people were discussing Chu Feng’s true strength because his outstanding martial accomplishments had already surpassed that of kings with six severed shackles.

How otherwise could he have killed Hei Teng, Qianyue and the Nine-lives Cat?

In the end, some were inclined to believe that Chu Feng was perhaps already one of the top-ten experts of the East. This was an astonishing ranking of strength although it wasn’t universally recognized.

The old llama of Kunlun, the Mountain Tortoise of Mount Kongtong, the Golden Roc of Mount Hua... they were all ranked within the top-ten. Their strength was at an extremely high level.

Chu Feng was too young compared to those old demons who had lived for hundreds if not thousands of years. His rise was simply too fast.

Regardless of whether it was the truth, Chu Feng being mentioned as a potential top-ten expert had initiated a chain of heated debates. This, in and of itself, was a form of recognition.

Subsequently, many began to ponder the secret behind his meteoric rise. Many believed that it had something to do with his secret breathing technique.

However, this time, no one dared to act blindly against this demon king. He was someone who had eaten the Black Dragon Crown Prince at the slightest disagreement and overturned many major corporate powers.

Meanwhile at Deity Biomedical, the Lin family household.

Xu Wanyi’s days, as of late, were altering between joy and worries. She was delighted and relieved when Chu Feng was severely wounded. She was now feeling distressed after his return.

Back then, her sister, Xu Wanqing, and the young master of the Mu family had worked together to deal with Chu Feng, only to lose their lives at Mount Taihang. Xu Wanyi had always viewed Chu Feng as an enemy and had utilized various means to obtain revenge.

But she no longer dared to take action after Chu Feng became a king level entity.

"He’s going against the marine race and has offended the Dragon King of the southern sea." Xu Wanyi laughed. She felt that her worries were soon to be washed away.

The Elder Dragon King possessed over 1500 years of cultivation. He would’ve long since come ashore to settle things were he not busy searching for the dragonification fruit in the depths of the ocean.

"Eh? Why is it so noisy out front?" Xu Wanyi was surprised.

The Lin family was quite large and occupied several buildings within the villa district. The sudden clamor out front attracted Xu Wanyi’s attention.

"Young mistress, things don’t look good. I heard Demon King Chu has arrived!" One of her aides came to report.

"What?! Wasn’t he at Jiangxi?!" Xu Wanyi was flustered. She had targeted Chu Feng several times and had even involved his parents before. She was afraid that Chu Feng would seek vengeance.

A while later, she received news that Chu Feng had asked for her by name and wanted to meet her right away.

Xu Wanyi’s face turned pale and, with a plop, collapsed from the shock.

At this moment, some important members of the Lin family had gone forth to personally welcome Chu Feng into the guest room. Even some elders of advanced age had appeared to receive Chu Feng.

They had never thought that Chu Feng would arrive at Jiangning so quickly and come knocking on their doors.

Lin Naoi wasn’t there but she had already been made aware of the developments and would rush back within a few days.

Those from the Lin family bore complex emotions. They were somewhat apprehensive and, at the same time, delighted at how quickly Chu Feng had reached such a stage.

They recognized Chu Feng’s strength and that the human race truly needed someone like him after the upheavals.

But their internal discussions also involved how unreserved Chu Feng’s actions were. His methods were too aggressive and had offended many parties, leaving him with a terrible name among the corporate powers.

Some among these people were knowledgeable about the true nature of the upheavals and were aware of how much power these major corporations had kept hidden since they also belonged to one.

"Chu Feng, you and Naoi are classmate share a good relationship. We won’t take you as an outsider so also please bear with us a bit if we speak frankly," an old man spoke.

He was Lin Naoi’s granduncle. The man was quite old but his complexion was rosy and his spirits hearty.

"Now the upheavals are still in their early stages. No one can foretell the things to come."

He had already mentioned to Chu Feng that his killing spree wasn’t quite appropriate. He advised Chu Feng to soften his stance because no one could become absolutely unrivaled and that he should think about the future.

Chu Feng felt somewhat guilty and only nodded without retorting.

All in all, the atmosphere wasn’t too bad. No upsetting incidents took place because Chu Feng had already confirmed that the Lin family weren’t involved in the plot against him.

The Lin family also informed him that the Mu family likely wasn’t involved either.

This somewhat astonished Chu Feng.

In truth, he had come to Jiangning to deal with the Mu family. He believed that, with Lin Naoi around, the Lin family probably wouldn’t plan to harm him. However, the same couldn’t be said of the Mu family. They had long since harbored enmity towards him.

"The Mu family is currently at a stage where they are pursuing stability and waiting silently for the next upheaval. They shouldn’t be involved in the plot against you," the elder informed.

At last, Xu Wanyi also arrived with a forced smile. Even though they were within Deity Biomedicals, she was still quite worried that Chu Feng would kill her at the slightest discord.

Who wouldn’t be afraid of Chu Feng? He was almost like a demon to the corporate members. He had attacked two major corporates in succession and heads rolled continuously wherever he pointed his sword.

As a person who had old grievances with Chu Feng, she was extremely afraid. The absence of her husband, Lin Yeyi, did little to help her nerves.

The Lin family members were aware of the situation. They wanted to mediate between them, hoping Chu Feng would overlook this matter.

Chu Feng stared at her for a good while and wanted to slap her to death and bring an end to things. After some thought, he decided to defer the business but, of course, was in no mood to smile either.

He directly mentioned that he had always wanted to come and pay a visit to the Lin family because Xu Wanyi had, in the past, employed excessive methods to deal with him and even involved his family members.

The expressions of the various Lin family members changed after hearing these words. Chu Feng’s critical "visits" had never bode well for his hosts proven by the fate of the Archaic Alliance and the Extraterrestrial Research Institute.

Some of the Lin family members turned to glance at Xu Wanyi, some with sympathy and others with blame.

In the end, Xu Wanyi collapsed once again under the pressure.

Chu Feng felt quite helpless. He truly had no plans to ruin the amiable atmosphere by drawing his blade to take her head but who would’ve thought she would be so scared.

It was all too easy to kill this woman at his level. He probably didn’t even need to do it himself and could force the Lin family to do it.

But he didn’t plan to do it today.

"I hope she’ll refrain from harboring such hostile thoughts in the future," Chu Feng stated.

In the end, he wasn’t able to leave as the greatly hospitable Lin family members had already arranged lodgings for him at a meticulously decorated villa.

The Lin family members told him that Lin Naoi would soon be returning. They were apparently aware of the story between the two.

"What are everyone’s thoughts?" Within a secret room, several important people from the Lin family were deep in discussion. The construction of this building was special and could isolate the interior from exterior probes, even king level divine instincts.

"His strength is absolute and his rise is rapid. He can certainly grow to become a great tree if we were to consider only from the perspective of evolution."

"Overly rigid items break easily. He might be able to protect himself, but his road ahead is destined to be full of twists and turns."

The Lin family members participating in this discussion all recognized Chu Feng’s evolution and talents but felt that he was too unreserved. They felt that his future prospects weren’t too bright.

Not to mention what would happen to him when the corporate powers revealed all their cards, it would be difficult for him to survive the Marine race’s tribulation. Did he really think the Elder Dragon King’s 1500 years of cultivation was fake?

"Some within our clan hope to see him and Naoi together."

"What do they know? You would do well to keep their mouths shut!"

Chu Feng left after staying at the Lin manor for a day and met up with the black yak and Manchurian Tiger at the hotel.

Finally, they went to visit the Mu family.

The Mu family members sought stability and were long since prepared. Their descendents and core members were all absent for fear of Chu Feng making a move against them. They were quite apprehensive after hearing how two major corporates had been attacked.

They only left some people to inform Chu Feng that the Mu family absolutely hadn’t participated in the plot against him.

He got in touch with Lin Naoi afterwards and obtained confirmation that the Mu family was indeed uninvolved.

Chu Feng was quite surprised. The Mu family who had grievances with him hadn’t plotted against him while the unrelated Archaic Alliance and Extraterrestrial Research Institute had, instead, taken aggressive action.

"The ways of this world are indeed difficult to predict." He sighed softly.

"When will you return?" Chu Feng asked Lin Naoi.

"I should arrive at Jiangning tomorrow."

Chu Feng’s appearance at Jiangning was ultimately leaked and caused quite a commotion.

At present, more and more people began to believe that he did, indeed, possess the qualifications to be ranked among the top-ten experts.

Many people thought he would make a move against Deity Biomedicals but his visit turned out to be quite peaceful without the slightest sign of conflict.

"Don’t tell me he had become the Lin family’s son-in-law?!" Some people who were looking forward to the battle mocked.

At noon, under the scorching sun, something weird happened. Dozens of vines began to hang down from the sky and reached into the city.

Similar scenes were playing out in other places like Shuntian, Gusu and Hangcheng.

Some major cities from the West also saw similar cases of eerily hanging vines.

People from various regions were shocked. What exactly was happening?

Plants were found growing in outer space some time ago but were duly shot down by a barrage of rockets after they began to threaten the safety of the satellites in orbit. Could something similar be happening?

However, judging from the high altitude photos and satellite images, the people were shocked to find that it wasn’t the case.

These vines were rooted in the air with no sign of roots nor runners.

Chu Feng immediately had the Golden Condor King carry him up for a closer observation accompanied by a rather solemn Yellow Ox.

These vines were like ropes, some hanging tens of thousands of meters from the sky, while some only a few hundred. Their colors were also different.

Some were a verdant green while others were a sparkling violet but they all looked quite sturdy.

Chu Feng found a certain blue vine hanging from three thousand meters high. The intoxicatingly blue vine was quite uniform and as thick as a person’s arm.

They approached the base of the vine and found a misty cloud one meter in diameter.

Chu feng was planning to approach when he was stopped by Yellow Ox. "Don’t get too close."

They surveyed the area and found that all the vines were covered with mist at the base.

In the end, Chu Feng produced his flying knife and sent it into mist. However, only metallic sounds were heard from within as if it had been struck by something.

Chu Feng’s expression shifted as he withdrew the flying knife but found nothing amiss with the blade.

"Could it be that the upheaval has truly arrived?" Chu Feng pondered.

That very day, some bold mutants decided to climb up along the vines all the way to their base and disappeared into the mists.

"Climbing along the heavenly ladder bring’s one to the immortal realm!"

This news spread far and wide.

Many dared not take risks and act rashly but there were a group of people who boldly climbed up and disappeared into the mist.

This caused a huge commotion. Many were waiting to see if these people would return and if there would be any changes.
