Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

The starship traversed layers of clouds and finally hovered steadily in the magnificent floating harbor of the Sky City.

The hatch opened, and Ling Feng, Veronica, and Freya stepped out one by one.

Without lingering, after exchanging a glance with Veronica, he took Freya and sped directly toward the Supreme Temple located on the cantilever at the very top of the core area.

The Supreme Temple remained solemn and majestic, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.

After overcoming numerous guards, we finally entered the main hall again.

Because Wu Zhao is in seclusion, all affairs, large and small, within the Supreme Temple are temporarily being managed by Si You.

However, Si You still dared not overstep his bounds, and could only set up a slightly lower seat on the left side of the supreme divine throne.

At this moment, Si You sat upright beside the throne that symbolized supreme power, his deep eyes beneath the mask scrutinizing Ling Feng and the other two.

"Long Fei (Veronica, Freya) greets Lord Siyou!"

The three bowed in greeting.

"Yes, no need for formalities."

Si You's voice was flat and emotionless, "I have received the battle report from the front lines regarding the Longyuan campaign. You have done a good job."

"It is also thanks to Lord Siyou's orderly scheduling and strategic planning."

Ling Feng bowed to Si You, appearing humble.

I'll keep this woman calm for now. Anyway, once I rescue Bingqing, I'm not staying in Sky City anymore.

Next time I come, I'll be stepping on this woman's head!

"It's all thanks to Lord Longfei's quick thinking!"

Veronica stepped forward, her voice tinged with excitement, and gave a detailed account of the speech she had prepared.

She recounted in detail, from the perspective of someone who had experienced it all, how Long Fei and Ling Zhan had narrowly escaped death in the Zerg hive, how they had uncovered Gabriel's plot and killed him, how they had risked their lives to cover the retreat, and how they had ultimately turned the tide on the main battlefield and repelled the Zerg army.

She showered Ling Feng and the other two with praise, clearly acting like a devoted fangirl.

"Lord Long Fei and Lord Ling Zhan deserve immense credit for turning the tide of the battle, repelling the Zerg army head-on, and buying the Longyuan Relay Station a chance to regroup! Without them, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

As Veronica spoke, she couldn't help but look at Ling Feng, her beautiful eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

Even Ling Feng blushed a little at what he said.

If she knew that the reason their raiding squad encountered the Zerg ambush was because she had tipped them off beforehand, her expression would probably be quite interesting.

On the throne, Si You listened quietly, his expression hidden behind the mask.

After Veronica finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Ling Feng and said calmly, "Long Fei, your performance this time has indeed exceeded my expectations. It seems that it was a waste of your talent to only let you take charge of the Third Divine Throne."

Of course, it's just talk.

How could Si You possibly hand over the position of the second divine throne to an "outsider"?

Of course, what she didn't know was that Ling Zhan and Ling Feng had already formed an alliance.

Ling Feng bowed slightly and smiled modestly, saying, "Lord Siyou, you flatter me. The victory against the insectoids was entirely due to the selfless and valiant efforts of all the soldiers. How could I dare to claim credit? However... Miss Er went into dangerous territory to collect samples of the mutated insectoids and unfortunately perished... I was unable to protect her, and I feel deeply ashamed."

As he spoke, a hint of regret appeared on his face.

Upon hearing the word "ear," Si You's gaze shifted slightly, and the air in the hall seemed to freeze for a moment.

After a moment of silence, Si You slowly said, "I already know about Er's matter. To sacrifice herself in the pursuit of truth is her destiny. There's no need to mention it again. As for your Tianmu Temple, you have lost a guest elder. I will have someone send the compensation to the Tianmu Temple in a while."

"Thank you, Lord Siyou!"

Ling Feng bowed to Si You again. He hadn't expected that he could get a compensation for faking Long Ze Liyue's death. After all, Long Ze Liyue was a first-level priest and the former Amaterasu Goddess. This compensation probably wouldn't be too stingy.

Anyway, it's all about taking advantage of the Tribunal, a huge profit!
However, judging from Si You's attitude, the news of Er's death seems to have had some impact on her, but it is not so difficult for her to accept.

Is it because Yan is still under her control?

Well, I'm sorry to say, but soon, Yan will also be "disappearing"!

The reason he didn't take Yan away directly was simply to temporarily appease Si You.

"Alright, you've had a long journey. Go and rest now. Long Fei, I'll remember your merits."

"Yes! I'm resigning!"

Ling Feng and the other two bowed again and were about to leave.

"Veronica, you stay here for now!"

Si You called Veronica again.

Veronica nodded and stood still.

Ling Feng glanced at Veronica. He already knew that one of Veronica's tasks was to keep an eye on him, so he wasn't surprised at all.

He shrugged and left the High Temple with Freya.

After Ling Feng and the other man left, Si You finally spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on Veronica, his voice still calm: "Veronica, what do you think of Long Fei? Was there anything unusual about his trip to the Longyuan relay station?"

Veronica bowed respectfully and said with certainty, "Reporting to Lord Siyou, I believe that Lord Longfei is extremely loyal to the Judgment Council and possesses outstanding abilities. This surprise attack on the Zerg mother nest further proves his strength and courage. If it weren't for him and Ling Zhanren, I'm afraid I wouldn't have returned alive. As for the unusual circumstances, this..."

She pondered for a moment, then shook her head. "I haven't noticed anything unusual."

"Is it……"

Si You's voice was unreadable, "So, what's your opinion on Gabriel's collusion with the Zerg and betrayal of my Tribunal?"

"This is something I didn't expect. I think it must be because he was stripped of his Godhood and is harboring resentment..."

Si You shook his head and smiled. "Given Gabriel's personality, even if he has the heart to rebel, he might not have the guts! There's probably more to this than meets the eye. Veronica, you need to understand that the more perfect something seems, the more vigilant you should be."

Veronica's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly replied, "I understand! I will continue to keep an eye on things, but for now, Lord Longfei is indeed beyond reproach."

"You..."

Si You sighed softly, "Very well, you may leave now!"

"Yes……"

Veronica raised her head, gave Si You a deep look, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she bowed and left the hall.

Watching Veronica's departing figure, a complex expression appeared in Si You's eyes beneath the mask.

After a long pause, she murmured, "Even now, you still won't call me 'Mother'..."

It turns out that Veronica is actually Si You's daughter!
A moment later, behind the supreme divine throne beside Si You, the space suddenly rippled like water, and then a smooth light screen appeared.

Within the light curtain, there was only an infinitely deep darkness and nothingness.

The next moment, a cold and somber voice slowly rang out: "The end is near, Si You, you may begin... preparations..."

That voice was none other than that of the Supreme God Wu Zhao!

"Is it finally coming?!"

Si You's expression changed slightly, and he straightened up a bit, facing the light screen, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Lord Wu Zhao! The bait is ready, we're just waiting for the big fish to bite!"

The darkness within the light screen shifted slightly, and the chilling voice rang out again: "Very good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the light screen vanished instantly, as if nothing had ever happened. The next moment, Si You let out a long sigh, slumped back on the throne, and lightly tapped the armrest with his fingers, producing a low, rhythmic sound…

Da da……

Da da……

Da da……

……

Meanwhile, after leaving the Supreme Temple, Ling Feng and Freya returned directly to his own Heavenly Eye Temple.

Sensing the return of its master, the temple's intelligent butler, "Tianmu," immediately activated, and soft light filled the hall.

"Welcome back, my lord!"

Having already received the news, Sariel and Della quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

When they saw Ling Feng return safely, their faces lit up with joy.

"Hmm, how was everything at the temple while I was away? Was there anything unusual?"

Ling Feng nodded and asked casually.

Sariel quickly replied, "Reporting to my lord, everything is normal."

"That's good."

Ling Feng felt relieved and instructed, "I need to go into seclusion for a while. Unless it's urgent, don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes!"

Sariel and Della responded in unison.

Ling Feng nodded and walked straight to his bedroom.

When he left, he arranged for no one to enter his bedroom, since he had left Night Owl behind to prepare for breaking through the data encryption of the Supreme Research Institute.

But Ling Feng was slightly taken aback the moment he pushed open the door.

The once empty bedroom has now been completely transformed!
Various sophisticated instruments gleaming with a faint light occupied most of the space, and countless tiny data streams danced and intertwined in the air like fireflies.

The walls were covered with huge light screens, on which scrolled dense, dazzling code and structural diagrams.

Apart from the bed, the entire room was filled with things that Ling Feng couldn't understand.

Meanwhile, Night Owl was sitting in a floating chair in the center of the room, his hands moving rapidly through the air as countless holographic images arranged and combined in front of him.

Hearing the door open, he turned around sharply and saw that it was Ling Feng. He breathed a sigh of relief: "Deputy Commander, you're back? I heard you had a great victory at the Longyuan Relay Station!"

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled wryly. This guy truly deserves to be called a genius hacker. He had only just returned, and this kid had already gotten the news.

This technology is truly remarkable!

But it was precisely because of this that Ling Feng was able to entrust the task of breaking through the encryption of the core database of the Supreme Research Institute to Night Owl.

After closing the palace doors and reactivating the layers of restrictions, he walked over to Night Owl's side, looked around, and couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get all these things?"

Night Owl shrugged, finally stopping what he was doing. He turned around, raising an eyebrow smugly: "Thanks to you, the temple's intelligent butler, with your high permissions and strong computing power, you've been a great help!"

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled. Tianmu had been modified by Night Owl before, and now the highest authority was completely under Night Owl's control.

Through Tianmu, Night Owl estimated that he had obtained a lot of information again.

He raised an eyebrow and continued, "After the last failure, I learned my lesson. After all, it's the core database of the Supreme Research Institute of the Arbitration Council, which is far more secure than the Arbitration Academy Library. We definitely need to get some professional equipment!"

He patted a core processor connected to countless conduits beside him: "Now, the preliminary preparations are basically complete, Deputy Commander. I'm waiting for you to come back. We can take action again at any time!"

"Oh?"

Ling Feng nodded, took a deep breath, and finally got to the point: "So, Brother Night Owl, how confident are you this time?"

Upon hearing this, Night Owl dropped his nonchalant expression, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

He snapped his fingers, and a complex, nested model immediately appeared on the screen in front of him—a simplified structural diagram of the Supreme Research Institute's database.

"Having learned from the lessons of the previous failure and after a period of dedicated research, I have thoroughly figured out the operating mechanism and self-checking rules of their self-checking system."

Night Owl pointed to several key nodes in the model and said confidently, "I rewrote the intrusion program and adopted the 'Quantum Ghost' protocol. With the internal access provided by Tianmu as a springboard, I am more than 90% confident that I can bypass their core alarm system, sneak in silently, and steal at least 30 to 40% of the highest-level encrypted information!"

"Ninety percent certainty?"

Ling Feng's gaze sharpened. He was basically confused by the previous words, but he was 90% sure he understood them.

Ninety percent is already a very high success rate.

Although Night Owl habitually exaggerates when he speaks, Ling Feng believes in his confidence in hacking skills.

"it is good!"

Ling Feng no longer hesitated, "There's no time to lose, let's make our move tonight!"

"I've been waiting for your words!"

Night Owl grinned, his eyes gleaming with excitement, like a top player about to embark on an extreme challenge.

……

That night.

Ling Feng stared intently at the night owl before him and said in a deep voice, "We can begin!"

"Ok!"

Night Owl nodded. "It's the same as last time. Our communication is interrupted every three seconds, during which time..."

Ling Feng waved his hand and smiled, "No, this time is different."

He shook his head and smiled. "Let's start by hacking the database. There's no need to break through the previous barriers again?"

"what?"

The owl was clearly taken aback.

Ling Feng then activated the Eastern Emperor Bell once again.

"If I've been to a place before, I don't need to go through the main entrance again."

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled. Currently, only a very small number of people know this information.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Feng activated the teleportation channel of the Eastern Emperor Bell, and within a few breaths, he directly entered the core database of the Supreme Research Institute.

"Night Owl, we can begin."

Ling Feng's voice immediately reached his ears, so fast that even Night Owl was somewhat dazed.

"Holy crap, that fast???"

Night Owl was still excitedly thinking about how to break through the barriers around the database again, but he didn't expect Ling Feng to bypass them directly.

He shook his head and smiled, then said in a deep voice, "Very good, perfect positioning! Now, take out the 'Ghost Beacon 2.0' I gave you and connect! Leave the rest to me!" (End of Chapter)
