The Great Road of Shading the Sky

Chapter 228 Let go of that girl and let me handle it!

In a mansion in the county town, a man and a woman both looked pale.

They never expected that sending out eighteen extraordinary individuals would result in their complete annihilation.

What's even more terrifying is that they seemed to be wiped out without any chance of fighting back.

So many extraordinary individuals combined, along with so many heavy weapons, were wiped out, all by a single person in a matter of moments. Such a feat is bound to cause a sensation if word gets out!
Xu Wanqing and Mu both stood there dumbfounded. Not long ago, they were still dreaming about the future, but now their hearts were filled with worry and horror.

If such a master were to attack, who could defend against him?
"Why did this happen? Damn it!" The young man from the Mu family roared, smashing the wine glass in his hand in a fit of rage.

"This is not your fault. No one could have predicted the emergence of someone who doesn't belong to any of the major powers, yet is comparable to Silver-Winged Celestials and Vajra, among others," an old man appeared and comforted him.

That's true, but unfortunately they have no idea what kind of being they are about to face.

Eighteen extraordinary individuals represent the limit of what they can send out, not the limit of what the other side can send out.

In fact, even for Chu Feng now, as long as he isn't surrounded and attacked by a group of people first, taking on eighteen people at once wouldn't be difficult; at most, he would have to pay a price.

"It seems we have no choice but to go there." In the mountains, Chu Feng sighed softly, carried the unconscious young woman on his back, and hurried along.

"Just think of it as a pre-dinner walk. But going to see your ex-girlfriend, do you feel any joy of a long-awaited reunion?" Shao Hua walked leisurely beside him, a teasing look on her face.

"Of course I'm happy, since we can still be friends even if we can't be lovers. But right now, there's nothing between us, and we broke up peacefully!" Chu Feng solemnly declared.

"Yes, we are completely innocent. We've only held hands a few times, and we've never even hugged." Shaohua nodded, uttering the most heartbreaking words in a very calm tone.

"She even told you this?!" Chu Feng felt a pang of heartache.

Although he hadn't actually thought he could bring the goddess home, he still felt a little embarrassed to have his shortcomings exposed to his face.

Especially since these words were spoken by a stunningly beautiful celestial maiden.

Is this appropriate?

This is inappropriate!
“We hit it off immediately, it’s like we’ve known each other forever, okay? You’re just an accident, we’re the real love!” Shao Hua glanced at him, her red lips slightly raised, her words sure to be shocking.

"Pfft!!"

Chu Feng was shocked upon hearing this. He lost his footing, tripped over his own feet, and fell forward.

Having cultivated for so long, he was no longer an ordinary person, and in theory, he shouldn't have made such a basic mistake, but he was still genuinely shocked.

Shao Hua reached out and caught the young woman who was thrown out, giving the woman, who had been jolted awake, a bright smile.

It's warm, as gentle and bright as sunshine, and it's intoxicating.

Upon seeing this scene, Chu Feng's legs immediately gave way, and he couldn't help but kowtow to the ground again.

"Why did I act so spontaneously? Because I love this land so deeply!" He spat out the sand that had fallen into his mouth and got up, speechless for a moment.

What a strange turn of events! My ex-girlfriend and my current live-in fairy are inseparable, while I feel like an outsider.

Isn't something a little off?
Although I knew I was most likely being teased, and I understood that Lin Nuoyi wasn't that kind of person, for some reason, I still had a feeling of being cuckolded.
Oh no, he's gotten stronger, and he's turned green too!

"One should not forget one's roots, but one can forget one's ex-girlfriend. Don't worry, I will take care of your girlfriend." Shao Hua comforted him, pretending to be serious.

"I'm not at all reassured by what you're saying!" Chu Feng sighed, covered his face, and put on a mask of pain.

He shouldn't have bought that communicator in the first place. Such an approachable and kind-hearted fairy, I don't know what she learned online, she seems to have become too integrated into modern civilization, and you can't tell at all that she is an ancient person.

Shaohua laughed heartily, her clear voice echoing through the mountains and forests, having completely forgotten the slight unease she had just experienced during the attack, and the entire journey was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Just as they caught sight of the county town in the distance, on the other side, Lin Nuoyi also focused her suspicions on Xu Wanqing and brought her over.

At this point, the matter is essentially settled; her actions were far from foolproof and would be exposed upon investigation.

"Are you hiding something from me?" she asked bluntly.

"No," Xu Wanqing feigned surprise, still trying to cover it up.

"You have disappointed me greatly. I trusted you and asked you to handle some things for me when I was unable to communicate with the outside world for a short period of time, but you have crossed my bottom line!" Lin Nuoyi said coldly.

Regardless of that person or Chu Feng, Xu Wanqing's act of acting on her own initiative is a grave taboo, no matter where or who it is!
"I don't know what you're talking about." Xu Wanqing was uneasy, feeling that something was wrong and that her actions had probably been exposed, but she still stubbornly refused to admit it.

Lin Nuoyi's eyes turned completely cold, and the last trace of affection vanished. Such a person should never be kept by her side.

She stood there, her tall and graceful figure exuding a coldness that kept people at a distance, making her appear exceptionally aloof. She calmly said, "Take her away. Don't forget she's an alien. Use the latest alloy shackles."

Xu Wanqing was stunned, her face turned pale, and she was terrified. Even with her sister's protection, she would probably have to pay a heavy price.

She could only pray in her heart that Mu would come to her rescue, after all, she had done all this to help him, step by step walking into the abyss.

"Where are you? Did you encounter any danger on the road?" Lin Nuoyi thought for a moment and dialed a number.

"We just arrived in the county town. We haven't encountered any danger, but your car is gone," Shaohua told the truth.

Chu Feng almost burst out laughing when he heard her answer.

They didn't encounter any danger on the road; on the contrary, the group of strange people blocking their way encountered real danger.

Who gave them the audacity to intercept and kill a celestial being?!
Even though they have been banished to the mortal realm and are no longer what they once were, they are not people that a few mutants who have eaten strange fruits can easily take advantage of.

Lin Nuoyi was also extremely clever and understood immediately. The fact that the car was gone meant that they had encountered danger, but it had been easily resolved.

"I've come to pick you up. Let's have a meal together, it's on me," she said.

This is a humble gesture and an expression of apology.

Regardless, Xu Wanqing is her person. It is their ability to resolve the crisis, and it is her duty to apologize.

Shao Hua nudged Chu Feng, who glanced around and gave her an address. A short while later, Lin Nuoyi personally drove a red sedan to the side of the road.

"Red? I thought you had a cool temperament and would like blue."

Shao Hua chuckled, sizing up the beautiful figure stepping out of the car, and said, "Hmm, she really is a great beauty, not much less beautiful than me."

Lin Nuoyi hadn't expected the other person to be so narcissistic. But when she saw the other person's appearance, a look of amazement flashed in her eyes.

The other person was indeed extremely beautiful, without a single flaw on her body. She had a graceful and slender figure, long legs, and was even taller than her.

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, and a smile graced her fair face. Her features were exquisite, her eyes bright as the moon, her lips red and teeth white, her nose straight and delicate, and she possessed a pair of captivating, clear eyes, as beautiful as a tree adorned with divine diamonds.

She possesses an ethereal and otherworldly quality. If she weren't dressed in such a modern and simple outfit—just casual trousers and a T-shirt—but instead in a traditional Chinese long dress, she would truly appear as if a celestial being had descended to earth.

"I am not as good as you," Lin Nuoyi sighed softly.

Although she never judged people by their appearance and never considered herself exceptionally beautiful, she still felt a little disappointed when someone who could overshadow her appeared before her.

“You’re still young, you have room for improvement.” Shao Hua chuckled, her gaze undisguised as she looked Lin Nuoyi up and down, from her beautiful face to her snow-white neck, and then all the way down.

The two were dressed in a strangely similar way, both wearing simple T-shirts on their upper bodies. However, Lin Nuoyi wore hot pants on her lower body, revealing a pair of straight and well-proportioned long legs, which was very eye-catching.

"With that tone, are you much older than me?" Lin Nuoyi asked, ignoring Shao Hua's scrutinizing gaze, because Shao Hua was also intensely observing her.

However, although the other party was also a woman, she did not feel the slightest dissatisfaction, which was unprecedented, and she almost thought that there was something wrong with her orientation.

Even from the very first moment of meeting the other person, I felt a genuine sense of joy.

Why is this? Could it be that there really is such a thing as fate in this world?
It couldn't possibly be love at first sight, could it?!
It's more accurate to say that the two had some unforgettable grudges and entanglements in their past lives, and are now reincarnated to continue their bond.
Even though she had a cold demeanor, she was somewhat flustered at this moment, and the coldness on her face faded.

“I am indeed older than you.” Shao Hua’s gaze shifted to Lin Nuoyi, and she leaned forward slightly. The contrast between them made her smile even brighter.

"It's not this big," Lin Nuoyi said, somewhat speechless, but a slight smile appeared on her lips. This was the first time she had ever chatted and joked like this.

"You look so beautiful when you smile like that, it's a pleasure to look at!" Shao Hua stretched out a slender, fair hand and gently stroked her pretty face, then lifted her chin, just like a delinquent youth teasing a respectable woman.

Lin Nuoyi, the daughter of a powerful conglomerate, was naturally not intimidated; she merely showed a slight change in expression.

At first, she slightly furrowed her brows, but quickly calmed down, standing tall and graceful, her beautiful eyes calm and undisturbed as she met Shaohua's gaze.

A beautiful woman flirting with another beautiful woman, both of whom are absolutely stunning, is a scene that makes one's blood boil and wish they could switch places with her on the spot.

Chu Feng was practically grinding his teeth to powder. In broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of everyone, these two were actually being so intimate right there on the side of the road, right in front of him—they were practically ready to hug and kiss.

Who are you kidding? You still say there's nothing between you two? Is this how things should happen on your first meeting?!

"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" The young woman with freckles on her face looked at Chu Feng, whose condition was obviously not right, and couldn't help but worry.

"I'm fine, I just want some peace and quiet." Chu Feng forced a smile.

This is a lie. What he really meant was: Let go of that girl and let me have her!
Well, either one is fine, being teased isn't a bad thing either.

"What do you want me to do?" the freckled woman asked, crossing her arms in front of her chest and instinctively taking a step back, scrutinizing the man before her with wariness.

"Your name is Jingjing?" Chu Feng felt completely unwell.

Fortunately, Shao Hua and Lin Nuoyi didn't do anything too outrageous. After exchanging smiles and names, they concluded their first meeting.

Of course, Shao Hua still gave the name 'Shao Guang'. She felt that if she revealed her real name, some unpredictable events might occur.

It may not necessarily lead to anything bad, but it is definitely not a good thing for the person who calls upon it.

This is why Chu Feng sometimes calls her "Sister Guang".

Soon, the four of them arrived at a restaurant together, and no one was left out.

The woman with freckles was naturally overjoyed, but Chu Feng was somewhat absent-minded, looking at the backs of the two stunning beauties walking side by side in front of him, feeling a little numb.

"What victim, what green? I will surely become a saint and an ancestor in the future. How can I give up the whole forest for a single tree?" He consoled himself, and his mood gradually improved.

"That's right, she's just a woman, how could she possibly disturb my peace of mind?!"

He strode forward with his head held high, as if his soul had been elevated to a higher level. His demeanor was confident and radiant, with a touch of youthful spirit amidst his composure. Coupled with his already handsome face, he appeared dignified and imposing.

However, when Chu Feng saw Shao Hua pull out a chair for Lin Nuoyi, hold her shoulders to help her sit down, and then the two of them whispered to each other, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and his pupils dilated in shock.

But in the end, he pretended not to see anything and began to recite the Ice Heart Mantra.

"A pure heart remains unperturbed even when the sky falls, calm amidst countless changes, and serene in spirit."

Lin Nuoyi wasn't just focused on the instant connection with Shaohua; she still considered Chu Feng a friend. With a slight smile, she asked the others what they wanted to eat.

Chu Feng had been waiting for this, so he immediately ordered ten catties of beef!
That damned ox, it's been making trouble for him every day at home. This time, the ox isn't around, so he's going to take revenge and channel his anger into his eating spree.

"Sister Guang has already told me about the attacks you've been subjected to one after another. I'm sorry, it was indeed because of me that you suffered this undeserved misfortune." Lin Nuoyi looked at the two of them earnestly, stood up, bowed slightly, and solemnly apologized.

"It seems you've caught the mastermind. What are you going to do with her?" Chu Feng didn't mince words and asked directly.

"First, we'll revoke her superhuman status. Then, we'll have to punish her severely. It will take some time, and I hope you can understand. My uncle is about to marry her sister, and I will do my best to impose the most severe punishment," Lin Nuoyi explained.

“I understand, it’s definitely a difficult situation for you. But what do you think, Sister Guang?” Chu Feng nodded and then turned to Shao Hua, who was sipping her drink.

"Kill him, and that will end it all." Shao Hua put down her cup and said calmly.

Chu Feng secretly gave a thumbs up. As expected of my sister Guang, she's ruthless and doesn't talk much!
