Chapter 227: Tears Fall, Heaven and Earth Transform; A Date with Lin Nuoyi

The Taihang Mountains were stirring with an undercurrent of energy, drawing various factions to converge. However, few realized that someone had already marked this place as their own.

On the day Shaohua and her companions entered the mountains to investigate, the world seemed to tremble slightly, followed by a series of bizarre phenomena across different regions, leaving people in awe.

These unusual occurrences were not limited to a single continent or region. Any place with mythological legends or ancient relics began to exhibit strange celestial phenomena.

For example, deep within the Taihang Mountains, a Great Curtain seemed to rise, revealing massive, primordial mountains that loomed close to the present world, as if they were about to merge completely. The sounds of countless beasts echoed through the air.

"Hmm? What's going on?" Chu Feng was startled, gazing at the distant mountains.

It wasn't an earthquake causing the tremors; rather, some fundamental rules of the world had changed, creating an inexplicable disturbance that made everyone feel uneasy.

"How could this happen so quickly? The world is undergoing another abnormal mutation, but it shouldn't be this early!" Yellow Bull scribbled several lines on the ground, his entire body trembling with shock.

"What do you mean?" Chu Feng asked urgently.

"The world is gradually awakening, but it should follow a gradual process. Unless an unimaginable external force intervenes, Earth has its secrets, and no one would risk such a catastrophic outcome. There might be hidden dangers!"

Yellow Bull's words revealed his deep concern. The early stages of Earth's awakening should not have such anomalies, as the planet's will would protect its inhabitants and isolate them from outsiders. Otherwise, the native life forms, who were just beginning their evolutionary journey, would have no chance against the powerful enemies from across the stars.

However, this process had been interfered with by a powerful force!

Earth was entering a new phase of awakening, and many people realized that the world was undergoing another abnormal mutation, arriving abruptly and unexpectedly.

This evening would not be peaceful.

Shaohua stood atop a mountain, gazing at the sky and the surrounding landscape. She remained calm, even feeling a sense of serenity and contentment.

"Is this a deeper connection with the world? Could it be because of that tear?" She lowered her head, her eyes narrowing, sensing a subtle connection through the interplay of heaven and earth.

Earlier that morning, she had touched the mysterious Stone Box and witnessed some strange scenes, her heart deeply moved, and a tear had fallen. At the time, she was immersed in sorrow and hadn't paid much attention to the event.

But as evening approached, the world suddenly underwent an abnormal mutation, and the cause was likely that single tear.

A tear, filled with sorrow and longing for the ancient past, contained an incredible power capable of altering the world.

"Don't worry, nothing terrible will happen", she reassured Chu Feng and Yellow Bull, who were feeling uneasy.

The two exchanged a glance, their hearts slightly eased. No matter what, they had someone watching over them.

Back in Qingyang Town, after dinner, Chu Feng and Yellow Bull immediately began their training, practicing their Breathing Technique under the moonlight and performing the Bull Demon Fist under the stars.

Even with the protection of a fairy, they still wanted to enhance their own strength and take control of their destinies.

They were acutely aware that protection was only temporary, and ultimately, they would have to rely on themselves.

Shaohua leaned against a willow tree in the courtyard, her graceful figure blending with the tree, her curves perfectly formed, exuding a captivating beauty. She watched as Chu Feng and Yellow Bull trained diligently, a smile flickering in her eyes.

She enjoyed these peaceful, everyday moments.

Suddenly, her Communicator rang. When she answered, Lin Nuoyi's voice came through, simple and calm, saying, "I'll be at the Taihang Mountains tomorrow."

"Okay, I know. So what?" Shaohua raised an eyebrow.

Lin Nuoyi paused, no one had ever countered her like that before. She then continued, "Let's meet. I'll treat you to a meal."

The two were strangers, yet Lin Nuoyi felt no aversion to Shaohua. It was strange, a sense of inexplicable closeness, even more so than with Chu Feng, who had initially been a persistent nuisance.

"Alright." Shaohua smiled and agreed.

She didn't have the same strange thoughts as Lin Nuoyi. Glancing at Chu Feng, who was panting and practicing his punches in the courtyard, a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

If she remembered correctly, these two had previously been a couple?

Would Chu Feng be shocked to learn that she was going on a date with his ex-girlfriend?

After mastering the Great Bull Demon Fist, Chu Feng's senses were heightened. He immediately felt a wave of malice and turned to look, but saw nothing.

"Don't hang up yet, I have more to say. A few days ago, your ex-boyfriend's family was attacked. Several dozen people, armed with firearms and rocket launchers, and a few Mutants", Shaohua said.

"Chu Feng and I are no longer together, at most, we're friends", Lin Nuoyi explained, her eyes sharp and intense.

"As for those people, I'll give you a satisfactory answer. Please tell Chu Feng to come with you. I'll send someone to pick you up."

"Sure!" Shaohua readily agreed.

She didn't really care about the answer; she just wanted to see the sparks fly when these two met.

Lin Nuoyi hung up, confused by Shaohua's sudden excitement. Was it because they were meeting? But they were both girls, what was there to be excited about? She decided not to ask and would address it face-to-face the next day.

The most pressing matter was dealing with certain individuals who had developed inappropriate thoughts during her seclusion.

The next morning, the sun rose, casting a golden glow across the sky.

A thin mist still lingered in the mountains and the orchard outside the courtyard, illuminated by the sunlight, creating a spectrum of colors.

After Chu Feng and Yellow Bull finished their morning training and ate a breakfast of wild game, a black armored car parked at the gate.

A young woman, with a few freckles on her nose, got out of the car. She had a pleasant appearance and a warm smile that easily put people at ease.

"Are you Miss Guang? Please get in the car", the young woman said, her eyes lighting up as Shaohua approached.

What a beautiful woman!

She was more than just beautiful; even in a simple T-shirt, her extraordinary aura was undeniable. She was flawless, like a celestial being, out of place in the mortal realm.

Such a beauty was a masterpiece of heaven, so ethereal that even another woman couldn't help but be captivated.

"Snap out of it, you're staring", Shaohua chuckled, waving a hand in front of the young woman's face to bring her back to reality.

"I'm really sorry, you're just so beautiful", the young woman blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"I'll take that as a compliment", Shaohua smiled, then turned to Chu Feng, motioning for him to follow.

In fact, Chu Feng had no idea what was happening. Lin Nuoyi hadn't notified him specifically, and Shaohua hadn't mentioned it the previous day.

It wasn't until they were in the car and leaving Qingyang Town that he realized what was going on, feeling a bit exasperated.

He couldn't understand why these two women were secretly planning together!

"Did you get her number when you were using my Communicator?" Chu Feng thought, finally connecting the dots.

He didn't expect their relationship to be so close, but it didn't really concern him anymore. They were in the past.

"That's right", Shaohua nodded, confirming it.

"This journey might not be smooth", Chu Feng said, his words carrying a hint of foreboding. Before he could finish, he felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of impending danger. He instinctively opened the car door and jumped out.

"They're here", Shaohua, sitting in the passenger seat, kicked open the door, grabbed the young woman, and threw the armored car in the direction of the attackers.

With a loud explosion, the armored car collided with several rockets in mid-air, twisting and deforming before crashing to the ground, completely destroyed.

Chu Feng's face turned pale. He hadn't expected an ambush. This was a bold move, especially considering the car was sent by Lin Nuoyi, making it a direct affront to her.

"No, it might be a last desperate act. Since Lin Nuoyi knows about those people, she won't ignore it. They're trying to eliminate witnesses to avoid exposure", he said, his eyes filled with a deadly intent.

He suspected it was the same woman who had targeted him before, but he didn't expect such a ruthless and insane plan.

Clearly, they were terrified and willing to take extreme measures.

"A tiger doesn't harm people unless provoked, but people often have harmful intentions. This isn't over, and whoever is behind this will pay!" Chu Feng was enraged.

"Agreed. Attacking me is a grave offense, and they deserve to die!" Shaohua's voice was cold and resolute.

She tossed the unconscious young woman to Chu Feng and stepped out of the car, vanishing in an instant, her speed blinding.

In a nearby forest, a hidden Mutant suddenly felt a heavy blow to the head and collapsed, asleep on the spot.

The forest was eerily quiet, with no sounds of battle. Shaohua moved like a ghost, delivering a quick and deadly strike to each target.

Her speed was incredible, and her strength was terrifying. She dispatched each Mutant in less than a second, leaving no survivors.

"All of them?" Chu Feng clenched his teeth, the efficiency was frightening.

"Have you ever seen me kill?" Shaohua rolled her eyes. If it weren't for Chu Feng, she would have given them a "pat on the head."

Chu Feng's lips twitched. Indeed, her "pat on the head" was brutal but not lethal. The victims' skulls would be crushed, their brains damaged, but they would still be alive, suffering a fate worse than death.

Except for the Black Divine Ape, which wasn't human and thus died.

"Boom!"

An armed helicopter appeared, raining down bullets and rockets.

Chu Feng remained calm, stepping behind Shaohua, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. He was curious to see what kind of supernatural power she would use.

She wasn't the type to dodge or block; facing such an attack, she wouldn't just raise her hand to strike.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed again.

Shaohua did exactly that, but instead of raising her hand, she formed a fist, a gesture that resembled the Bull Demon Fist but was different.

With one punch, the air exploded, the shockwave surpassing several times the speed of sound, creating a series of sonic booms. The sky was split by a bright white line, like a silver sword cleaving through the heavens, leaving an indelible mark.

When he looked up, the helicopter was nowhere to be seen.

"An air cannon?!" Chu Feng's jaw dropped, not knowing what to say.

In a mansion in the county, Xu Wanqing paced back and forth, her mind uneasy.

She didn't believe Chu Feng had any real skills, only that he had a powerful ally who had helped him.

Coincidentally, the day before, the world had undergone an unexpected mutation. She had accompanied Lin Nuoyi to the Taihang Mountains and learned that Lin Nuoyi had sent someone to pick up a woman, not Chu Feng, who was staying with him and seemed to be close.

She realized that this woman was likely Chu Feng's protector.

Xu Wanqing feared that Lin Nuoyi would discover the truth and that the powerful ally might come after her. So, she sought help and set up an ambush, determined to eliminate the threat and leave no witnesses.

The young man sitting beside her, Mu, was her accomplice and also a suitor of Lin Nuoyi, the root of all the trouble.

"Wanqing, don't worry. It's a simple matter. Just kill them", Mu said calmly, his handsome face showing no concern for human life.

"You make it sound easy, but I've committed a grave offense. What if Lin Nuoyi finds out?"

"Who cares if she knows? Heavenly God Biotech isn't just her family's. The Mu family is an important member, and you're her best friend. Your sister is also marrying her uncle. What can she do to you?"

Mu's Communicator rang, and he smiled, putting it on speaker.

"Target located. Rockets launched, hit."

"See, the problem is solved", Mu laughed, and Xu Wanqing joined in.

But the next moment, the voice on the Communicator changed, becoming urgent and panicked, as if the speaker had witnessed something unimaginable.

"Everyone has lost contact. It's a female demon. Run! No, open fire... Ah!!"

"Boom!!"

Silence fell.

In the mansion, the two people who had been laughing moments ago fell silent, their faces pale. They knew trouble was coming.
