Chapter 106: Reward (II)
Teng Zhihui walked over and said loudly, “Junior Brother Chen, you really gave us a huge surprise.”
“It’s all thanks to the lightning wood. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to break through to the warrior candidate realm so quickly,” Chen Yiming said, using the excuse he had thought of earlier.
“That’s only because of your own talent. Even if you give a treasure like the lightning wood, I wouldn’t dare to use it,” Teng Zhihui said with a smile.
The new list was completed in a few minutes. Su Xiuming walked out of the school and handed the list to Chen Yiming.
Chen Yiming glanced at it briefly. The nas on it had changed to Lin Yixuan, Su Xiuming, and Mu Yuerong. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he passed the na list to Teng Zhihui.
After Teng Zhihui and Su Xiuming left, Xia Yingzhe, Zhang Xingfeng, Zhao Yunrong, and Du Yuan bade farewell to Chen Yiming and quickly left.
Chen Yiming gestured for Mu Yuerong to send Lin Yixuan to the hospital to prevent him from dying from internal bleeding. He didn’t want to be accused of killing his senior brother.
In any case, as long as Lin Yixuan continued to cultivate, the trace power of lightning would continue to grow. Sooner or later, he would suddenly die from the explosion caused by the repulsion between the two internal forces.
There were many cases of people losing their minds and dying while cultivating the concept diagram. The outside world would only think that fate did not favor Lin Yixuan, and that he had failed at the stage of breaking through to the warrior realm.
At this mont, only Chen Yiming and Wang Bowen were left at the entrance of the school. The two of them exchanged so opinions about the current situation.
Wang Bowen said, “Junior Brother Chen, when Master returns, I will personally explain the situation to him. I believe Master will definitely understand. After all, Lin Yixuan was only injured. He will recover after lying down for a while.”
“Got it.” Chen Yiming nodded. He had no intention of telling Wang Bowen the truth.
As long as Chen Yiming insisted on not taking over the position of the head, Wang Bowen might soon beco the successor of the school.
“The exact scale of the beast tide this ti is still unknown. I wonder what will happen in the city.” Wang Bowen shook his head and continued. “If there’s a need, I can arrange for so experts from the Wang clan to go to your house to protect your family.”
Chen Yiming thought about it carefully. His newly established Yiming Detective Agency mainly dealt with gathering information. The overall strength of the people he recruited was still relatively weak. Most of them had undergone less than three transformations.
It was fine to let these people gather information, but it was not enough to protect his family.
“I will be really grateful for that,” Chen Yiming replied.
“What are you feeling grateful for? I believe it won’t be difficult for you to break through to the warrior realm. In the future, the Wang clan might even need your protection,” Wang Bowen said with a smile.
The two of them weren’t biological brothers, but they were closer than that. This was the friendship they had ford from the ti when Chen Yiming first rose to prominence.
At that ti, there was no issue of gains and benefits between the two of them, only pure passion for martial arts. This kind of friendship was sothing that the friends Chen Yiming made after he rose to prominence could not compare to.
The speed at which martial arts practitioners moved far exceeded that of ordinary people. About half an hour later, Teng Zhihui and Su Xiuming returned to the martial arts school.
Chen Yiming confird with Teng Zhihui that the matter regarding the na list had been settled and sent Su Xiuming away.
The three of them discussed how to deal with the aftermath. Chen Yiming invited Teng Zhihui to his company to help out, and Teng Zhihui agreed without much thought.

After the matter was settled, the three of them left.
…
In the center of the Nuhe Mountain Range, a canyon had been opened up.
The canyon was nearly two kiloters wide and more than three kiloters deep. A river flowed along its bottom.
On both sides of the river, dozens of mutant beasts were sleeping. They were all two to three stories tall, and every breath they took would raise a cloud of dust.
Looking down from the top of the mountain, one could see a black crack that was dozens of ters long at the bottom. This was the space-travel passage leading to the otherworld in the Nuhe Mountain Range.
At this mont, there was an inexplicable sense of oppression in the air.
In the next mont, thousands of flying mutant beasts surged out of the space-travel passage. These bird-type mutant beasts had bodies about three to four ters long, and each of them had a long beak that shone with a tallic glint.
After entering the blue planet from the otherworld, this group of flying mutant beasts soared into the sky in formation and flew into the sky above the center of the Nuhe Mountain Range.
In an instant, the entire central area was covered by the bodies of the bird-type mutant beasts. The entire forest beca dark, and their huge black shadows were left on the ground.
“%&$*”
A flying mutant beast that was nearly 20 ters long let out a sharp cry. Its feathers were glowing with a cold tallic color, and looked like armor that the humans used.
Its wingspan was close to 50 ters. Every ti it flapped its wings, a black fla would rise up. Wherever the black fla passed, the air was distorted and blurred.
After receiving the order, the thousands of flying mutant beasts split into three teams and flew towards Nightwater City, East Lake City, and Cloud Port City.
At the sa ti, the three troops stationed around the Nuhe Mountain Range were in chaos when they saw this scene. All the soldiers stopped what they were doing and went into formation to await their orders.
In the room where communications from the camp were conducted, a burly officer in a green military uniform was holding a landline phone and reporting the situation to soone on the other end of the line.
“Reporting, a large number of flying mutant beasts suddenly appeared in the central region of the Nuhe Mountain Range. The number is in the tens of thousands.”
The other party was silent for a few seconds, and their heavy breathing could be heard.
“What’s the size of the leader?”
“About 20 ters.”
“Direction?”
“Split into three groups, going towards Nightwater City, East Lake City, and Cloud Port City respectively.”
“Lead the troops and stay in place to defend and observe the situation. Report any new developnts in a tily manner.”
“Beep! Beep! Beep!” Once he finished speaking, the other party hung up.
In Yongluo Town, all the people who were preparing to enter the mountain to hunt mutant beasts saw the flock of flying mutant beasts that covered the sky from afar and imdiately dispersed. There was no need for any discussion or forming teams.
“Oh my god, why are there so many?”
So of them were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their lips started trembling. Their muscles were tense and their running speed was even slower than usual.
“Excuse , excuse …”
So people relied on their powerful strength and roared as they squeezed out of the crowd and fled into the distance, leaving behind the weak people who were wailing after being pushed to the ground.
These weak people had no chance to get up after falling and were trampled into the ground by the crowd.
Most of the fleeing people were not heading towards the city, but the wilderness, which was far away from the city.
Because at this ti, cities faced an assault from the air, which was often more dangerous than the wilderness.
…
In East Lake City, the air raid siren suddenly rang throughout the city.
Many children were playing among the pedestrians on the street. When the parents heard the siren, they imdiately picked up their children and ran towards the nearest air raid shelter.
The air raid shelter was built in this era to deal with the attacks of flying mutant beasts. It was equipped with reinforced concrete support pillars, and its defense was enough to withstand ordinary mutant beasts.
When Chen Yiming heard the air raid siren, he had just returned to the entrance of Jinghu District.
“Mr. Chen, you ca back at the right ti.” The guard, Xiao Zhang, walked over to greet him with a face full of fear.
Chen Yiming’s reputation had already spread throughout the district. All the residents, property managent personnel, and guards in the district knew that he had a strength that they could rely on.
If they really encountered a disaster, following the Chen family was much more reliable than running around by themselves.
Chen Yiming glanced at Xiao Zhang and leaped onto the wall that was more than 10 ters tall. He then leaped up again to the height of more than 10 floors.
After jumping off the balcony of a house, he leaped to the top of a building that was more than 30 stories high.
Only the city center had such high-rise apartnts. The suburbs were all low-rise two or three-story buildings, so the field of view was extrely wide.
Chen Yiming looked into the distance from the tall building that was 100 ters tall. The sky was dark as a group of flying mutant beasts charged towards East Lake City.
He took out his phone and dialed the landline at ho.
“Hello, Dad. Are Mom and Yingying at ho?”
The sound of rapid breathing ca from the other end of the line.
“Yes… yes. Your mother and sister are both here.”
“I’m on the roof of the building. You guys hide at ho.”
“Alright, be careful too.”
After hanging up, Chen Yiming sat down cross-legged and waited quietly for the air battle to start in a few minutes.
