"Fifth Rank?"
Outside the ancient redwood hall, in the center of a smoothly paved gray stone brick square.
Chen Feng’s eyes narrowed, his steps paused slightly.
He didn’t believe his perception could be mistaken.
It wasn’t arrogance, but the confidence brought by countless life-and-death battles.
In an instant, perception activated with concentration, the world slowed down.
Everything within three hundred ters was completely enveloped, including the nearby Maple Forest.
Fallen leaves flew, the textures of the trees were clearly visible.
Ants on the ground moved slowly, passersby showed varied expressions.
So were from martial arts sects, so were business people and politicians, the strongest among them at most True Intent Level.
Several seconds passed, but in reality, it was very fast.
Yet, he found nothing unusual.
"What’s wrong?"
Perceiving sothing amiss, Zhou Wuren was the first to ask.
The Giant Elephant Master and others also shifted their gaze towards the Maple Forest along the step road.
With a whoosh.
An airwave surged, an eye-catching flying device rapidly descended from above, the words Black Crystal Group particularly striking.
"It’s the Black Crystal Group."
Zhou Wuren’s expression relaxed, inwardly acknowledging that Master Chen’s five senses were indeed exceptional, being the first to notice.
The Giant Elephant Master and others had similar thoughts; their steps towards the hall halted for the mont.
No one knew what Chen Feng was thinking, only he was certain there was surely a hidden exceptional figure nearby.
"To actually be able to block my perception."
"This person must be at the Fifth-Order level, though it’s unclear whether they are a transford human or in the martial arts extre realm..."
The thought flashed through, and Chen Feng recalled the encounter at the Black Crystal Group hotel in Yun Gang.
That Wu Chijiang was similarly special, with a perfectly controlled force field covering every inch of the body, making it impossible to determine their aura strength or transformation system.
However, there is a difference between the two.
It seems this person harbors no malice towards him, as emotional perception couldn’t be blocked.
Buzz!
Then, in the midst of his thoughts.
The gray-black circular flying device slowly descended, with a hiss, the cabin door opened to the side.
Tap, tap!
Footsteps sounded, several figures appeared.
The leading one was a familiar figure.
"Master Chen, Master Zhou."
Dressed in a black combat uniform and boots, appearing twenty-eight or nine.
A plain build and face, shoulder-length black short hair, an empty left sleeve clearly missing an arm.
"Zhao ng."
Chen Feng and Zhou Wuren nodded slightly, glancing at her left arm.
"The boss said to fit with a golden steel arm, but I didn’t like it."
She explained self-deprecatingly, Chen Feng understood.
The difference between biological transformations and chanical modifications is significant.
If she installed a golden steel arm, it would have so impact on activating skills like invisibility.
Then, glancing at the several Black Crystal Group security personnel behind her, seeing them fully ard, he was a bit puzzled but refrained from asking due to the occasion.
"This is Ms. Zhao from the Black Crystal Group, a friend of my master during their lifeti."
Sect Leader Tan Long of the Lion Heart Sect explained to fellow disciples.
After all, Zhao ng wasn’t from the martial arts world, not everyone knew her.
In an instant, sounds of respectful greetings rang out consecutively.
Zhao ng nodded gently, perhaps due to the gratitude for Xie Xiao saving her life, she was quite friendly to the people of the Lion Heart Sect.
By contrast, the Giant Elephant Master and Whale Flow Master, despite proactively being friendly, received only a bland nod in return.
A large group of people magnificently proceeded towards the hall.
Xie Xiao’s body was well-preserved, the black coffin not yet sealed.
Various incenses and white-yellow flowers placed on both sides, Zhao ng’s gaze sowhat wavering, as did the Giant Elephant Master and others, feeling a bit sentintal.
Although tomorrow was the official burial day, this was essentially the last viewing, as the coffin would be sealed by evening.
"If it weren’t for saving ...."
Zhao ng’s gaze was complex, quietly murmuring, while Zhou Wuren gently shook his head beside her.
The Giant Elephant Master and Whale Flow Master had already known the main reason beforehand, with the latter speaking tily as a form of consolation.
"Master Xie had little ti left."
"Ms. Zhao coming to see him blesses future generations; he surely wouldn’t regret his past choice knowing this."
After so consolation, everyone nodded in agreent.
Zhao ng’s expression improved a bit, but Chen Feng noticed that several people she brought were still outside.
They seed to move casually, but in fact, were a bit vigilant.
Finally, noting the late hour, the Lion Heart Sect had long prepared rooms for these esteed guests.
The group left the front hall, each went to their room.
Before Chen Feng could inquire, Zhao ng took the initiative to walk to his side, speaking in a low voice.
"Master Chen, the boss instructed to bring three ssages."
"Go ahead."
"Beware of the Chi General Guard."
Zhao ng said seriously, Chen Feng’s heart tightened, guessing it was likely due to Luo Wantao’s movents.
"Is she still in Yun Gang?"
"Yes."
Zhao ng nodded, giving him a deep look, not probing further about the aning of the words.
Chen Feng didn’t ask more out of tacit understanding, only forming so plans in his mind.
"The second ssage."
"Zhong Yan is still in the inner city ruins, but she privately t a Fifth-Order transford human, who has already left Yun Gang."
Zhao ng’s tone turned colder, hearing this, Chen Feng’s heart was stirred.
"Did he co here?"
"Very likely."
Zhao ng didn’t hide, honestly saying: "Zhong Yan might suspect we killed Xu Qiang and others, but lacking evidence and feeling guilty, she refrains from acting."
"Master Xie’s funeral is an opportunity to stir trouble, she wants to confirm so things through this."
No wonder.
Chen Feng’s doubts dissipated, instinctively recalling that concealed Fifth-Order aura just now.
No malice at all, thus unlikely to be from Sky Shipping.
