Silvia's arrival wasn't something Wang Cheng paid much attention to initially. He thought the matter would just pass.
However, just a little over a day later, Silvia called Wang Cheng again.
"What did you say?" Hearing Silvia's words, Wang Cheng was instantly startled.
"Sorry, I didn't know he was your neighbor when I met him in the Wilderness Area, and it seems you're on good terms!" Silvia apologized.
"My companions have all learned the news by now, and they're investigating further with significant progress... They'll likely report to the Li Yao couple soon!"
"It's not your fault, and it's not a big deal!" Wang Cheng's tone had calmed down. After some thought, he asked, "How did you discover Luo Feng is a Mental Master?"
"I'm also a Mental Master, and I have a special ability that makes me sensitive to others' Mental Energy!" Silvia explained. "Shortly after I left Yangzhou City the day before yesterday, I happened to run into that young man. I noticed his Mental Wave was very unusual. After tracking him for a while, I naturally confirmed his identity!"
"I see..." Wang Cheng understood. This was his fault. If it weren't for him, Silvia wouldn't have encountered Luo Feng. If she hadn't encountered Luo Feng, no matter how sharp her perception was, she wouldn't have discovered he was a Mental Master.
The Li Yao couple had clearly stated when they offered the bounty for the killer that the culprit could be a powerful War God or a Mental Master.
Under these circumstances, it wasn't strange for Silvia to investigate further after discovering Luo Feng was a hidden Mental Master!
Luo Feng had many suspicious points. While these points couldn't confirm Luo Feng as the killer for Silvia's teammates, they didn't stop them from reporting him.
After all, they had no relation to Luo Feng, so reporting him carried no pressure!
And if the matter was proven, they stood to earn 100 billion. Why wouldn't they?
"Thank you for telling me this!" Wang Cheng expressed his gratitude.
The situation was clear: Silvia had unintentionally discovered Luo Feng was a Mental Master and had investigated further.
Although Luo Feng already possessed General level strength, he was essentially still a novice Warrior. He had little experience, making him easy to investigate.
Luo Feng being a Mental Master, coupled with some of his experiences, would likely make anyone suspect him.
Silvia, who also had no relation to Luo Feng, probably intended to report him. However, she suddenly discovered Luo Feng was Wang Cheng's neighbor and that they were on good terms... Unable to stop her teammates, she could only inform Wang Cheng.
However, after hearing Wang Cheng's thanks, Silvia smiled, "It's unwise to offend you for 100 billion! If I had a reason to stop my teammates, I wouldn't let them continue investigating now!"
"Haha!" Wang Cheng burst into laughter, surprised by Silvia's frankness.
"But what will you do? My teammates are innocent. You're not going to silence them, are you?" Silvia asked with some concern.
"Since you've said so, I won't do anything, even for your sake. Let them report to Li Yao. Anyway, the Li Yao couple will probably find out about this sooner or later!" Wang Cheng said.
"Sooner or later? No, no, no, that young man hid very well. If he hadn't run into me, the Li Yao couple wouldn't have found him!" Silvia repeatedly shook her head.
"I've got it handled!" Wang Cheng said no more. Although his arrival had changed some things, some events were unavoidable. Wang Cheng estimated that even without Silvia, Luo Feng's identity as a Mental Master would have been exposed sooner or later.
In other words, if the Li Yao couple's son was indeed killed by Luo Feng, they were already on opposing sides from the beginning. This hatred could not be resolved; one side was destined to perish.
After talking with Silvia for a while, Wang Cheng quickly hung up the phone.
"With Luo Feng's current strength, he probably can't withstand the schemes of the Li Yao couple! However, this matter ultimately started because Silvia came to me. If Silvia hadn't come to me, she wouldn't have met Luo Feng, and if she hadn't met Luo Feng, she naturally couldn't have discovered he was a Mental Master. I have to take responsibility!" Wang Cheng made up his mind.
Wang Cheng hadn't intended to get involved in this matter. If Luo Feng grew normally, the Li Yao couple wouldn't be able to do anything to him. Moreover, the Li Yao couple's existence would serve as pressure for Luo Feng.
But now, because of Wang Cheng, Luo Feng might be exposed prematurely, and he likely wouldn't be able to withstand the Li Yao couple's revenge!
In this situation, let alone the fact that this matter originated because of Wang Cheng, just considering Luo Feng's current relationship with Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
"Luo Feng isn't too weak right now. As long as Li Yao doesn't act directly, he should be able to handle it!" Wang Cheng thought, and he quickly made a decision.
Li Yao was a High-level War God and possessed the Black God suit. If he acted personally, Luo Feng was likely no match for him!
However, as long as Li Yao couldn't act personally, his other methods would at most involve asking for help. Luo Feng wasn't a pushover, and he had received numerous guidance from Wang Cheng. His progress was actually much faster than normal development. He wasn't someone who could be easily manipulated now!
As for how to prevent Li Yao from acting personally... Killing him directly was unnecessary. Wang Cheng wasn't one to kill innocent people.
"Let him lie in bed for a few months!" Wang Cheng chuckled. Then he got up and left the villa in an instant.
A moment later, Wang Cheng arrived at the Jiangnan Landscape Community in the Main City of Jiangnan Base City.
The Jiangnan Landscape Community was the most luxurious residential area in the entire Jiangnan Base City, especially the six large villas located at the very center, which boasted incredibly beautiful scenery.
However, no matter how beautiful the surroundings were, Li Yao, who was currently sitting cross-legged on the balcony, had no mood to appreciate them.
He stared grimly into the distance, his anger and anxiety almost bursting from his chest.
It had been nearly three days, yet there was still no news of the killer. Even with a 100 billion bounty, he couldn't get any useful information. Li Yao truly doubted if he would ever find the true culprit.
"No matter who killed my son, I will make them pay the price..." Li Yao's fists were clenched so tightly they creaked. Just then, Li Yao seemed to sense something, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
He abruptly turned his head. Indeed, behind him, a figure had appeared at some unknown time.
The reason it was called a figure was that the light around the person who appeared at this moment was completely distorted, making it impossible to see their appearance clearly.
"Who are you?" Li Yao instinctively stood up and questioned.
At this moment, the figure looked up. In a daze, Li Yao saw a pair of eyes of unfathomable depth.
"Li Yao, remember to keep a low profile from now on!" A calm voice sounded in his ear, and then Li Yao felt a sharp pain in all his bones.
Bang!
Li Yao was sent flying far away, and after crashing through an unknown number of buildings, he finally stopped.
Hearing the commotion, in an instant, a beautiful blonde woman, no less stunning than Silvia, rushed out of the villa.
Undoubtedly, this was Li Yao's wife, Vinina Polenas!
"Yao!"
Vinina couldn't help but cry out when she saw Li Yao, who had collapsed into a heap, covered in blood.
"I almost forgot, you're also a High-level War God!" The calm voice sounded again, and the next moment, Vinina was also sent flying backward fiercely.
"..."
Crippling two High-level War Gods in an instant, that figure was naturally Wang Cheng.
This was a trivial matter for Wang Cheng, so he left after finishing the job.
Not long after Wang Cheng left, Li Yao's butler discovered the situation. After confirming that the unbelievable event was indeed true, he hurriedly sent the Li Yao couple to the Warrior Hospital.
About half an hour later, the news of the Li Yao couple's incident spread among the councillors of Earth.
Being able to cripple two High-level War Gods in an instant was something other High-level War Gods clearly couldn't do. This was at least the work of a Planet-level warrior or a Planet-level Mental Master. On Earth, all Planet-level warriors and Mental Masters were councillors, so the matter naturally spread rapidly within the councillor circles.
In fact, upon learning of the Li Yao couple's injuries and the circumstances, most councillors immediately concluded that this was not the work of an ordinary councillor.
For a Planet-level being, killing an Advanced War God was not difficult, but shattering the bones of a High-level War God in one move was something ordinary councillors could not achieve. On the entire Earth, only the Five Great Speakers and a very small number of councillors could accomplish this.
Of course, who exactly did it could only be guessed.
However, while other councillors were busy speculating amongst themselves, some also turned their suspicions in other directions.
The area where the Li Yao couple was attacked was under surveillance. The surveillance footage was obtained by four parties: the Chinese official authorities, Limit Martial Hall, Lightning Martial Arts Hall, and the HR Alliance, to which the Li Yao couple belonged.
At this moment, Hong and Thor, who had visited Jiangnan Base City a month ago, arrived again. After meeting the Li Yao couple, who had just woken up, they gathered together again.
"Brother Hong, before it was just speculation, but now it seems that an Alien Visitor has indeed come to our Earth!" Thor said, stroking his bald head, his tone filled with an indescribable complexity.
"Mm!"
Hong nodded. The video, coupled with Li Yao's injuries, was enough for them to confirm this matter.
"If they have the ability to come to Earth, they wouldn't be without an Intelligent Optical Computer to assist them!" Hong analyzed. "So I suspect this surveillance was deliberately left behind by them. They don't intend to hide themselves; they even want us to know of their arrival!"
"And this guest is very likely in Jiangnan Base City!" Thor added. The two incidents, one outside Jiangnan Base City and the other right near Jiangnan Base City, made it very obvious.
"What is their purpose?" Hong couldn't help but frown.
"This incident with Li Yao seems very strange!" Thor chuckled.
"The only major thing the Li Yao couple has done recently is to offer a reward of 100 billion for the beast that killed his son. And according to Li Yao, that person also told him not to be too arrogant before attacking him. Could it be that this guest couldn't stand Li Yao and decided to act?"
"They didn't kill anyone!" Hong pointed out the crucial detail.
"That's good news!" Thor also nodded with a solemn expression.
Possessing such immense power and facing a bunch of ants, if their mindset were even slightly extreme, they could have killed them with a single blow. Especially when Li Yao, an "ant," might have even offended them. But even so, the Li Yao couple were still alive!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this the greatest news!
Hong and Thor continued to discuss. As the two strongest individuals on Earth, they naturally had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the planet. Although they both detested this feeling of speculation, they had no choice but to guess and prepare for potential future events!
Unfortunately, after a long discussion, the useful information they obtained was still very limited.
"Brother Hong, I plan to stay in Jiangnan Base City for a while!" Thor suddenly said.
"It's been a long time since we brothers sparred. Let's take this opportunity!" Hong smiled.
"No problem!" A smile also appeared on Thor's face.
