Chapter 242: Listen, Let Me Take a Look (6k Chapter)

In the small town, Shaohua and Lin Nuoyi walked into the cinema to watch a rather unconventional and bizarre film.

Yes, they had the entire theater to themselves.

Lin Nuoyi, a true wealthy woman, found this a piece of cake.

She knew Shaohua preferred quiet, and appearing in public would likely cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, her identity was no longer a secret.

While various cameras couldn't capture Shaohua's image, many people had seen her in the Taihang Mountains, and there was always a chance someone might recognize her.

In fact, they weren't the only ones watching the movie. The people who had been secretly filmed, and even some Mutant Beasts, also went to see it.

For example, the Black Bull and Little Yellow Bull from the Kunlun Mountains took a group of Beast Kings to join in the fun. They were filmed without a care, adding immense popularity to the film.

It couldn't be helped; after all, Shaohua had given them so much.

A single sprout from the willow tree transformed the Black Bull and Little Yellow Bull, with the former becoming an outstanding Beast King in the Kunlun Mountains.

When the Black Bull heard that the movie featured the fairy he revered most, he immediately led a group of beasts to support it, unaware that Shaohua's appearance was involuntary.

Little Yellow Bull, on the other hand, knew about it. He and Shaohua had been following each other on their communicators for a while, but he wouldn't reveal the truth, finding it amusing.

"Good grief, this 'Chronicles of the Celestial Emperor: The Rise of the Great Wasteland' is incredibly influential. Have you seen the news online? Even the Kunlun Beast Kings went to watch the movie in a group!"

"Unbelievable, what magic does this movie have to make a group of Beast Kings rent out an entire theater? I haven't seen it yet, and it's embarrassing!"

It turns out that it's a fantasy story about a character traveling through time or to another world, where a young man accidentally travels to another world, meets the remnant soul of a celestial maiden, transforms from a worthless body to a holy body, and rises to become a supreme Celestial Emperor.

When Shaohua emerged from the cinema, her face still bore a somewhat strange expression, indicating that the aftereffects were quite strong.

To be honest, the movie was indeed bizarre, pieced together with various elements, but for some reason, certain scenes gave her a sense of déjà vu.

Can the term 'Celestial Emperor' be used so casually?

What about the remnant soul, the Great Wasteland, and the holy body?

Admittedly, bad movies are common, and bizarre ones aren't rare, but when a movie is so bad and bizarre to the extreme, it can have a huge impact.

Objectively speaking, this film wasn't too terrible. The cinematography was quite realistic, with many scenes shot on location.

For example, the scenes of Shaohua easily killing the Silver Sky Deity and others were heavily enhanced with special effects, turning them into a plot where the celestial maiden's remnant soul forcefully intervenes to protect her disciple, declaring, "Whoever hurts my disciple will face the destruction of their lineage."

Not to mention the scene where she slapped a mountain to dust, which actually happened, with her black cloak billowing, making her look incredibly majestic.

Her indistinct features, which no one could clearly see, sparked endless imagination and praise, with many comments praising the mysterious and ethereal quality of the scenes.

Those who had witnessed the battle in the Taihang Mountains left comments, describing her as a celestial beauty descended from the heavens.

However, no images could capture her face, and even those who had seen her found it difficult to describe her beauty, adding to her mystique.

However, while some were delighted, others were troubled. After the movie's release, Heavenly God Biotech had significant objections, as the Silver-Winged Sky Deity, one of the main antagonists, had already perished in the Taihang Mountains.

The movie also depicted Mu Family's young master and the Xu sisters being killed by Shaohua, portraying them as villains, which naturally sparked outrage.

The most awkward part was that in reality, they still had to grovel to the woman.

"I know Lin Nuoyi is still with her, but can we just let the Mu Family's grudge go? Don't forget, Xu Wanyi is your Lin Family's future daughter-in-law!" someone from the Mu Family slammed the table, unable to suppress their anger.

"Stay calm!"

An elder from the Lin Family stepped forward, his aged eyes meeting the furious Mu Family members, and spoke calmly, "Do you know what Nuo Yi learned from the person in the Taihang Mountains?"

"Humph, tell us." Despite their anger, the Mu Family knew the Lin Family wouldn't lie about something this important.

"Several days ago, a mysterious powerhouse appeared on Mount Tai, overwhelming all opponents and making numerous Beast Kings submit. Do you know who that was?" the Lin Family elder suddenly asked.

The Mu Family members' hearts sank. In this situation, what other answer could there be?

"That's right, the mysterious powerhouse on Mount Tai was the person from the Taihang Mountains. She personally took Nuo Yi there." The Lin Family elder spoke with conviction.

"If you want to take revenge, be my guest, but remember, it's your Mu Family's own doing, not related to Heavenly God Biotech, and certainly not related to us!"

The Mu Family members could say nothing and left in frustration.

Mount Lu, one of the famous mountains in the world.

In ancient times, there were the Three Mountains and Five Great Mountains, and Mount Lu was one of the Three Mountains, holding a high status and truly a renowned mountain.

Beast Kings had once battled here, but they eventually retreated.

Now, a towering ancient tree stood by the Mount Lu waterfall, its branches lush and dense. Few knew that this was a transformation fruit tree, whose fruits could turn beasts into human form.

There were similar transformation fruits in other places, but this one was undoubtedly the best.

At this moment, several Beast Kings gathered before the Mount Lu waterfall, and White Serpent was among them. Shaohua hadn't restricted her movements much.

"Please, Fellow Daoist, give us some transformation fruits." The Beast Kings bowed respectfully.

"Of course." The ancient tree, endowed with intelligence, spoke and shook its branches, dropping dozens of yellow fruits.

"Thank you!"

White Serpent didn't rush to eat the transformation fruit on the way like the other Beast Kings. Instead, she returned to the Taihang Mountains first.

"Fascinating, she really transformed into a human." Shaohua clapped her hands and laughed.

After her trip to Mount Tai, she had become more somber, but she still enjoyed interesting things and pursued beauty.

The nearly hundred-meter-long White Serpent's body crackled with light, eventually transforming into a human form.

Lin Nuoyi brought a set of prepared clothes and approached White Serpent, examining her closely.

Such a large snake transforming into a beautiful, fair-skinned woman in front of her eyes, anyone would be tempted to take a second look.

After transforming, White Serpent looked ethereal and graceful, with long white hair cascading down her back, and a cold demeanor.

She had a tall and slender figure, a slender waist, and long legs. Her eyes, slightly slanted, carried a natural coldness.

A white, ancient-style dress suited her perfectly.

"Do you have a name?" Shaohua asked.

"No." White Serpent's voice was still cold, but in human form, it had a touch of elegance.

A name was just a symbol, and with a thousand years of cultivation, she was the sole ruler of the Taihang Mountains. White Serpent was simply White Serpent, and she didn't need a symbol.

"There are legends about White Serpents in the human world. Using the name directly might not be beautiful. Let's call you Bai Su." Shaohua smiled lightly.

White Serpent had no objections and nodded, not knowing the significance of this seemingly casual name.

Even though Shaohua had lost her powers, her naming still carried an unimaginable force, gathering immense fortune for White Serpent.

After all, her final resolve had repeatedly replayed in this universe, leading to her revival in this life, and her words held the weight of divine law.

"Who is she?" In the small courtyard of Azure Sun Town, Lu Shiyun felt a sense of unease upon seeing Bai Su.

This woman had a slender waist, long legs, cold yet alluring eyes. She found herself strangely captivated by her beauty.

Bai Su kept her distance, her face cold, as Shaohua led her upstairs.

Lin Nuoyi then informed Lu Shiyun and Jiang Luoshen about her background.

"Really, the White Serpent from the Taihang Mountains?!" Lu Shiyun was shocked.

"A beast transforming into a human, mythology comes to life." Jiang Luoshen was equally amazed.

Upstairs in the study, Shaohua closed the door and wanted to examine Bai Su's body in detail. She was very interested in the process of beasts transforming into humans.

"Listen, let me take a look."

Bai Su obeyed her without hesitation, sitting on the bed and removing her clothes, her long legs crossed, looking like a beautiful snake.

Three days later, in Compliant Heaven City, several Beast Kings arrived in the capital together. The news of their transformation shook the world and led to some peace agreements between Beast Kings and humans.

Of course, the so-called peace mainly applied to some named mountains. In areas still plagued by fierce battles, the agreements might not be honored.

But it was still a significant improvement. At least many places no longer had to worry about beast invasions.

"Ha ha ha, finally breaking free from old shackles, now I know who I am. I have returned as a king!" Chu Feng returned, beaming with joy, his smile almost reaching his ears.

After this evolution, he had grown taller, from 179 cm to 185 cm, and his hair had grown longer. His muscles were strong and gleamed with a crystalline luster.

However, he wasn't the only one to break free and become a king. Lin Nuoyi had also quietly reached this realm.

"Great, King Chu Feng, I have a challenging task for you." Shaohua didn't let Chu Feng rest, being very considerate.

Chu Feng couldn't help but twitch his lips. Not sister, I just got home, and you're already sending me out again?

Even cattle and horses aren't treated this way!

At this moment, Chu Feng missed Little Yellow Bull in the Kunlun Mountains. That was a real beast, and he should be the one to be sent on errands.

Shaohua’s task for Chu Feng was simple: represent her and go out to meet people, so she wouldn’t be bothered by visitors.

For a long time, many factions had been sending invitations, and with the recent transformations of beasts into human form, even the offspring of the Beast Kings had become human, walking among human cities. Both humans and beasts wanted to meet her, and Lin Nuoyi was struggling to keep them at bay.

White Serpent had a cold and aloof personality. Even after transforming, she still preferred to stay in the mountains or by Shaohua’s side, unwilling to make public appearances.

As for Lin, Jiang, and Lu, each had their own backgrounds and, in name, were still considered Shaohua’s ‘prisoners,’ so they couldn’t represent her.

Chu Feng became the most suitable choice. Everyone knew there was a relationship between them.

“This is a huge responsibility!” Chu Feng sighed.

Shaohua was the first to claim a mountain after the Celestial Shift, the first to subdue a Beast King, and the most famous and mysterious figure online.

Representing her would inevitably draw scrutiny from various factions.

“Don’t feel pressured. Just treat it like a visit home. Oh, and don’t start trouble, but don’t back down either. Act when you need to,” Shaohua advised.

Chu Feng’s resolve was strengthened. After reuniting with his parents and resting for a night, he set off for Compliant Heaven City the next day.

A mere two thousand miles, with his Shackles realm, he could break the sound barrier in a single sprint, matching the strength of a King-level creature, reaching supersonic speeds.

Traveling didn’t require full effort; it would take just an hour or so, though it would be tiring.

“Chu Feng got into a conflict at a banquet and nearly killed a Beast King’s offspring,” Lin Nuoyi reported.

The cause was simple. Chu Feng had gained fame by slaying the Gray Wolf King on the Guiyun Plateau, and with the Mu family’s incitement, conflict was inevitable.

Soon, Chu Feng called back, saying, “A weasel, acting all high and mighty, insulting and belittling humans. I gave it a little lesson.”

He needed to explain, as he was representing Shaohua.

“I thought you would have killed it,” Shaohua said.

“It was at a banquet. Drawing blood wouldn’t be good. If anyone else attacks me, I won’t hold back,” Chu Feng replied.

While wandering outside the city, he was attacked again.

This time, it wasn’t a Beast King’s offspring but two Near-Kings, who had broken through their realms but hadn’t yet freed themselves from any Shackles, far surpassing the Awakening level.

Unfortunately for them, they chose the wrong target.

Chu Feng practiced a top-tier Breathing Technique and had the Supreme Pollen as a catalyst, breaking free from one Shackle upon reaching the King level.

How could mere Near-Kings compare to a true King?

Before long, a large peacock and a weasel lay dead on the ground. Chu Feng promptly had a barbecue, roasting the peacock meat.

He took a photo and boldly posted it online, causing a stir.

“Hunting in the outskirts, accidentally caught and roasted it!”

Many saw through it immediately. Clearly, the beasts had tried to exact revenge and were instead killed, which was both amusing and a morale boost.

The weasel and peacock clans suffered a significant loss, assuming Chu Feng was also a Near-King, and plotted to attack his parents.

“We found out he brought his parents back to their hometown, a small town at the foot of the Taihang Mountains.”

“Stupid. If it were in Shuntian, we might be cautious, but how dare he leave them in a town?”

“It’s rumored that the owner of the Taihang Mountains is in the town. Chu Feng is representing that person. Acting rashly could anger a King,” someone hesitated.

“He killed our Near-King and must pay. We’ll quietly enter the town, capture Chu Feng’s parents, and cripple him. The owner of the Taihang Mountains won’t personally intervene!”

That night, another peacock and a weasel flew toward the Taihang Mountains, both Near-Kings.

“A little bird and a rat.”

Outside Azure Sun Town, a slender white figure paused, looking up at the sky.

White Serpent hadn’t expected to find a midnight snack.

moments later, she wiped her lips, her red lips even more vivid.

The two Near-Kings, terrified, revealed everything before dying.

“So, you came to cause trouble,” White Serpent murmured, carrying the remaining peacock to the east of Azure Sun Town.

Lin Nuoyi and the others, seeing the massive peacock, knew what had happened. They didn’t expect to be “plucking the chicken” late at night.

Shaohua took a photo, logging into her personal public platform, posting the image with the caption: “Good luck, tonight we eat chicken!”

“Heavens, that’s not a chicken, it’s a peacock, just like the one Chu Feng posted this afternoon!”

“Wait, what am I seeing? Three beautiful women plucking feathers, no, my goddess Jiang, stop! Let me do it!”

“Honestly, am I the only one who wants to taste a Near-King peacock?”

Chu Feng also commented, fanning the flames: “This peacock meat is delicious. When can we get more, Shaohua?”

The internet erupted. Was the owner of the Taihang Mountains about to act?

Shaohua didn’t act, but someone did on her behalf.

The next day, before dawn, Chu Feng quietly arrived in Jinmen territory, taking the initiative to attack the weasel clan’s stronghold, Pan Mountain.

Chu Feng was furious, and the consequences were severe. Daring to harm his parents, they would pay the price. This trip was to level the mountain and destroy the clan!

It didn’t take long for him to reach Pan Mountain, unstoppable.

The weasel clan’s patriarch was only a small King, having broken two Shackles. Although Chu Feng had only broken one Shackle, he still dominated the fight.

“Don’t get too cocky, I’m a member of the alliance led by the Peacock King,” the weasel patriarch threatened, though he was more bark than bite.

“Hmph, using the Peacock King to scare me? He can’t even protect himself!” Chu Feng advanced, radiating killing intent.

In the end, the Beast King bled, and the clan was annihilated. Pan Mountain changed hands.

Chu Feng gained a crimson flying sword and the corresponding sword technique.

Meanwhile, White Serpent attacked Mount Tai, confronting the Peacock King, who was confused by her sudden appearance.

The two Beast Kings were evenly matched, but White Serpent had the advantage. She had consumed willow leaves and Zhu fruit, and with the divine medicine in her system, all her Shackles were broken. If not for the limitations of the world’s revival, she could have easily reached the Free and Easy realm!

“It’s only because my master told me to be low-key. Otherwise, how could you have lasted this long?”

White Serpent mused, revealing her true form. Her slender tail lashed through the air, like a dragon’s tail or a celestial blade slicing the sky. She struck the Peacock King, sending him crashing to the ground, unconscious.

“Considering your cultivation, and that we are both Beast Kings, I’ll spare you this time,” she said coldly, then turned and left.

This was at Chu Feng’s request; he wanted to take his own revenge.

“White Serpent is so cool and dominant. I want a cross-species romance with her!”

“Bah, you wild boar, look at yourself in a puddle first. Do you think you’re worthy?”

“So strong. I don’t think White Serpent even used her full strength to defeat the Peacock King. Most importantly, she’s here for the owner of the Taihang Mountains, still serving her. How powerful is that owner?”

This comment silenced Mount Tai.

“I suspect the one who overpowered us here was the owner of the Taihang Mountains. She must have had a great fortune, benefiting even White Serpent.”

The rumor quickly gained traction.

Soon, two pieces of news shook the internet, thrilling countless people.

“Shocking, explosive news! Pan Mountain was leveled by Chu Feng!”

“Breaking news! White Serpent appears at Mount Tai, severely injuring the Peacock King and leaving!”

These were astounding. The Beast Kings and factions were stunned. If this human and snake could achieve such feats, how powerful must the owner of the Taihang Mountains be?

Many rejoiced, feeling relieved. The beasts had been arrogant and disrespectful, even harming Chu Feng’s parents.

Now, the weasel clan was wiped out, Pan Mountain became Chu Feng’s trophy, and the Peacock King was humbled, no longer daring to act recklessly.

The beasts’ arrogance was crushed.

That day, Chu Feng’s communicator was flooded with calls. He shut it off, not planning to take over Pan Mountain. He handed over the weasels’ bodies and the entire mountain to the authorities in exchange for Mutagenic Soil and techniques.

Using only the Great Bull Demon Fist wasn’t enough. He needed to expand his arsenal.

After obtaining what he needed, he returned home to study the sword technique.

“Sword control is essentially a mental technique for manipulating objects,” Shaohua observed, instantly mastering it.

She understood it at a glance, but it wasn’t useful to her.

“Someone approached the Lin family, asking me to relay a message that they want to meet you,” Lin Nuoyi said.

“Oh? Who’s important enough for you to take seriously?” Shaohua asked.

“The master of Biyou Palace,” Lin Nuoyi informed her.

“A grand name. I consider myself the Queen Mother of Heaven. Is he really the Master of Tongtian?” Shaohua laughed. She had read Earth’s myths and legends, including later fabricated stories.

Lin Nuoyi paused, then said seriously, “There are rumors that the master of Biyou Palace indeed uses the name Tongtian.”

Shaohua’s heart skipped a beat.
