Clang!
The next mont, the spatula she was holding dropped to the ground, her face filled with disbelief, and tears gradually brimd in her eyes.
"Son, is it really you?" She hurried forward, wanting to reach out and touch Ye Feng, but hesitated, afraid it was all an illusion.
"Mom, it’s , I’ve made you worry," Ye Feng’s voice choked slightly.
"I thought you were dead, where have you been these past months?" After confirming it was indeed her son, Wang Shuwen’s tears couldn’t help but fall.
Since Ye Feng had disappeared, more than three months had passed. Although his body had never been found, a death notice had been issued long ago, and they had long since given up hope.
But unexpectedly, Ye Feng had suddenly returned.
"I mistakenly entered an Ancient Ruin and had to go through a series of trials before I could co out," Ye Feng said, giving the reason he had prepared.
"Entered an Ancient Ruin by mistake?" Wang Shuwen was slightly startled but soon seed sowhat relieved.
Indeed, if it hadn’t been for an extrely unbelievable event, how could Ye Feng, a common man, have returned unhard after going missing in the wilderness for months?
At that mont, the voice of his father, Ye Xiangfeng, ca from outside, "Boss Chen, why are you standing at the door? Co on in and have a seat!"
"Heh, it’s a bit inconvenient right now, you go in first!" Chen Dalong’s voice ca through.
"Inconvenient?" Ye Xiangfeng was puzzled and worried that there might be so problem, so he quickly walked into the house.
The next mont, he stood there, stunned.
"Son! You... is it really you?" Ye Xiangfeng didn’t believe as readily as Wang Shuwen.
Rather, he was sowhat skeptical, concerned that soone was impersonating his son.
If it had been before, he definitely wouldn’t have had such doubts, but now their family held so significance in Yang City and was modestly renowned. It wasn’t impossible for soone motivated by money to try to defraud them.
As for soone having the sa appearance as his son, the level of costic surgery these days was quite sothing.
Ye Feng, with his spiritual power, could sense his father’s ntal fluctuations and knew what he was thinking. He imdiately said with a smile, "Dad! In the bottom drawer of your desk, that hidden compartnt, your pri..."
"Cough, cough, cough!" Ye Xiangfeng hurriedly coughed to interrupt Ye Feng, "It’s really you, my son, it’s so good you’re back, co, you and I must have a good drink."
"And by the way, tell where you have been these months, why are you only back now? We’ve been worried for so many months. If you don’t give a detailed explanation today, I promise to spank you until your butt blooms."
Hearing this, Wang Shuwen imdiately beca displeased, "Mr. Ye, do you realize how much suffering our son endured after mistakenly entering the Ancient Ruins? He’s finally made it out, and instead of showing concern, you want to spank him? Do you believe I’ll make you sleep in the living room for a month?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I was just saying..." Ye Xiangfeng imdiately begged for leniency.
Then he looked at Ye Feng with so disbelief, "Son, you entered the Ancient Ruins? Was it the ones that opened a few days ago?"
"Yes, that’s right," Ye Feng nodded, "It was indeed that Ancient Ruin, but unlike the others who could only enter once and gain a little benefit...
"But I have beco a core mber of the Heavenly Court and will now be a key individual trained by them."
Hearing Ye Feng say this, both parents showed surprised expressions.
"Is this... really true?" Wang Shuwen asked with a delighted face.
"How strong will you be able to beco?" Ye Xiangfeng asked more directly.
"It’s all true, as for how strong I’ll be able to beco, I’m not sure."
Ye Feng first shook his head, and then, changing the subject, said, "Old Chen must have taken pretty good care of you these past few months, right?"
Ye Xiangfeng was initially taken aback before realizing that the ’Old Chen’ Ye Feng was referring to was Chen Dalong. He said with dissatisfaction, "How are you speaking, boy? Show so respect."
"Boss Chen has helped our family out so many tis. If it weren’t for him, it would be hard to say if our family could have survived the big disaster."
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Do you know why Old Chen wanted to help you?"
Hearing this, Ye Xiangfeng’s face showed a hesitant expression. Although Chen Dalong had previously said he helped because Ye Feng had purchased security services from his security company...
But such talk, really, only a fool would believe it, and I was naturally aware of that too. But in tis like these, one can only pretend to be unaware.
And now, looking at Ye Feng with gleaming eyes, does his statent imply that he knows the answer?
"Actually, Old Chen and I were alike; in our weaker years, we accidentally entered the Ancient Ruins."
"However, his talent was inferior, so he only beca a peripheral mber, whereas I beca a core mber."
"That’s why we know each other, and I was the one who asked him to take care of you."
"But at that ti, many things couldn’t be explained, so I didn’t let him talk to you about ," Ye Feng explained.
Hearing this, the couple exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with deep shock.
The question that had always troubled them seed to be unraveling, yet it was more unbelievable than ever.
Chen Dalong is hailed as the strongest among humans, but such a formidable person is only a peripheral mber of a force called the Heavenly Court?
Then how terrifying must the strength of their son, a core mber like him, be?
It was not only them; even Chen Dalong, who stood outside the door, with his hearing, could easily make out the conversation inside.
Hearing what Ye Feng had revealed, he didn’t know what to say.
But it was undeniable that this explanation neatly tied up so previously unreasonable aspects.
Then, Wang Shuwen’s voice, deliberately lowered, ca from inside the house, "Son, how strong are you now?"
Upon hearing this question, Chen Dalong perked up his ears too.
"I’ve just awakened as a superhuman today, how strong could I possibly be?" said Ye Feng.
"Ah! Really? But sohow, it doesn’t quite feel like that?" Ye Xiangfeng was also sowhat dumbfounded.
Although he wasn’t a Spiritual Superpowered Being and couldn’t accurately probe soone’s Realm, with the perceptual powers of an Evolutionist, he could still have a rough understanding of other people’s strength.
As a Second-order Evolver, he felt that Ye Feng’s strength was greater than his own, so how could it be that Ye Feng had only awakened today?
"Plus, aren’t you a core mber? Boss Chen is a peripheral mber and has already reached the Sixth Order, how could you, a core mber, have only just awakened?" Ye Xiangfeng continued to inquire.
Regarding this, Ye Feng already had an answer prepared, saying right away, "The assessnt for core mbers is very difficult, and it took nearly two months to pass."
"Then I spent another month forging the strongest foundation before I made my breakthrough."
Wang Shuwen interjected, asking, "Son, does that an you have great potential?"
"Mm," Ye Feng nodded and said, "I’ve mastered three abilities!"
Since Ye Feng had already stated that he was a core mber of the Ancient Ruins, he naturally didn’t need to hide his genius.
Hearing this, not to ntion the three people inside the house, even Chen Dalong outside, who thought he knew a lot about Ye Feng’s "background," was inwardly impressed.
"So, which three abilities have you mastered?" Ye Xiangfeng asked eagerly.
Ye Feng stretched out his palm, and imdiately a blinding bolt of lightning burst forth in the center of it.
Standing to the side, Ye Rou had been listening obediently all this while, but at this mont, she could no longer hold back her excitent, and she jumped up exclaiming, "Wow, it’s Thunder Abilities, such abilities have such strong offensive power!"
Ye Feng smiled and retracted the Thunder Elent ability, patted his little sister’s head, and then the whole family watched incredulously as Ye Rou began to float.
"This is my second ability, control over ntal power, which can manipulate objects and also attack the Sea of Consciousness directly," Ye Feng introduced briefly, then he made sure Ye Rou landed back on the ground.
"As for my last ability." Ye Feng gestured towards the direction of the door and called soone over.
Chen Dalong, standing outside the door, suddenly felt the space around him violently fluctuate, and then in a blur, he found himself in the living room.
Ye Feng’s voice then floated into his ears, "This is my third ability, Space Shift."
