Feng’s eyes conveyed a hint of shock.
Earlier, when they were indoors, she relied on her perception to watch Xiang Li’s every move, fearing that he might launch a surprise attack on Li Wuji.
She was certain.
No suspicious behavior occurred before Xiang Li left.
So, why did this scene happen?
Could it be that Xiang Li has become stronger again?
A speculation flashed across Feng’s mind.
Though she very much hoped to dismiss this speculation.
But besides this, she could not think of any other reason.
Among all the Association Committee Members, Xiang Li’s strength remained unmatched.
Sun Yihe of Yihe Gate was the only one who could compete with him.
Now,
if Xiang Li has broken through again, how terrifying would he be?
With that thought,
a hint of trembling surged within Feng’s heart.
She looked towards Li Wuji.
But this old man in front of her seemed utterly indifferent to Xiang Li’s increased power.
All he cared about were the withering plants.
“Chairman…”
“If conflict breaks out, can we really hold up against Xiang Li?”
As for how many top fighters their side had, Feng knew well enough.
The other side, with Respected Elder and Xiang Li, was likely to have more, not less..
If Xiang Li has made another breakthrough,
and coupled with the Respected Elder who snatched Li Wuji’s soul and physical body,
the thought of it left Feng feeling somewhat suffocated.
“Rest assured.”
At this time,
Li Wuji stretched out his thin palm,
gently patting her hand.
“When the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up.”
Li Wuji lifted his head.
A faint smile appeared on his wrinkled face.
“You youngsters.”
“Just focus on your training and growth.”
There seemed to be a profound meaning in his words.
But Feng was unaware of Li Wuji’s plans.
He rarely explained anything to her.
So, Feng could only nod in seeming understanding.
“All right.”
“If there’s nothing else, help me clean up the courtyard.”
“That damned kid…”
“All of these are my painstaking efforts…”
Hearing this,
Feng pushed the wheelchair, settling the incessant mumbling Li Wuji on the bed. After tucking him in, she went to the courtyard to clean up the aftermath.
Hopefully, everything will be okay.
Hopefully, brother won’t run into any trouble.
She prayed in her heart.
Her hands continued working steadily without a pause.
Western China.
Tropical rainforest.
The rainforest was usually quiet.
But today,
a continuous roar echoed within dozens of kilometers.
Numerous fierce beasts and poisonous insects fled relentlessly from the center of the roaring sound.
Away from that dark zone.
The sky-obscuring thundercloud blocked all the light.
From the thundercloud, small thunderbolts would occasionally strike the ground.
The consequence was that everything within the strike range was reduced to ashes.
At this moment,
Where Chen Sheng stood,
the nearly two-kilometer-high mountain peak was forcibly flattened.
This,
was merely the aftermath caused by the thunderbolt strike.
One after another, purple thunderbolts fell, not giving Chen Sheng any chance to breathe.
Their posture,
was to obliterate Chen Sheng, a mortal who dared defy the divine.
Unfortunately,
since the moment Chen Sheng upgraded,
a full hour had passed.
Unlike the previous two times, he was not turned into charcoal by the thunderbolt.
On the contrary,
Chen Sheng still stood at the top of the mountain, maintaining his open-armed posture.
The surface of his body shimmered with the sheen of metal–his flawless muscles withstood one strike after another but remained unmoved.
He closed his eyes, slightly lifting his head.
It didn’t look like he was enduring the thunderbolt bombardment.
Instead, it looked more like he was enjoying a shower.
This casual attitude, naturally, annoyed the roaring thunderbolt even more.
Unfortunately,
it was just powerless fury.
Time gradually passed.
Another hour passed.
