Arrival

“Boyfriend?” Xu Xin’s eyes widened as she looked at her brother, Xu Gang. Didn’t her brother know… she and Luo Feng hadn’t officially confirmed their relationship yet?

“Boyfriend?” Luo Feng’s expression was odd, but he remained silent.

In his heart, he felt a certain fondness for Xu Gang. Although this ‘little brother-in-law’ seemed to place too much importance on status, he couldn’t be overly criticized. The first time they met, Luo Feng had been quite annoyed, but honestly, Xu Gang’s actions back then were indeed for his sister’s well-being! And now, he was actively pushing Luo Feng and Xu Xin together…

Having such a sensible brother-in-law wasn’t bad at all.

“Luo Feng,” Xu Gang said with a smile, “The first time we met, I, Xu Gang, was quite offensive. I hope my brother-in-law can give me some face…”

In the blink of an eye, Luo Feng’s status had upgraded from Xu Xin’s boyfriend to ‘brother-in-law’.

“Brother!” Xu Xin couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Ah,” Xu Gang cried out, “My sister is shy. Luo Feng, I’ll treat you later. For now, I’ll leave with Uncle Bo and the others. We’ll head back first and won’t disturb you two.” With that, he grabbed Sun Chao’s arm. “Sun Chao, let’s go. We should head back. Don’t interrupt their private time.”

Sun Chao’s expression was stiff and awkward. He was simply pulled away.

…

Sun Chao and Xu Gang walked out of the airport exit and left in three separate cars with the rest of their family.

Inside the extended luxury sedan.

Sun Chao and Xu Gang sat in the back. Xu Gang was no longer as jovial as before. He calmly glanced at Sun Chao beside him. “Sun Chao, don’t you dare interfere with my sister and Luo Feng’s relationship. The consequences…”

“We’ve practically grown up together, so as an older brother, I’m warning you: the highest echelons of our Xu family fully support my sister and Luo Feng’s relationship. Anyone who dares to disrupt it, even if your father protects you, you won’t have an easy life afterward,” Xu Gang said in a low voice. “My sister and Luo Feng’s matter is currently the most important thing for our family.”

Sun Chao remained silent, not uttering a word.

After a long while, Sun Chao finally blurted out, “Xu Gang, that Luo Feng… could he be the Luo Feng from the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo?”

“Oh, you know him?” Xu Gang smiled.

“A couple of days ago, when I was abroad, my dad called me and mentioned this Luo Feng, saying he’s quite a prominent figure within the War God Palace.” Sun Chao let out a long sigh. “At the airport just now, your words made me furious, but at the time, the name ‘Luo Feng’ felt familiar. It was only after getting in the car that I remembered.”

Xu Gang looked at him with a smile. “Still want to compete for my sister?”

“Compete for what?!”

Sun Chao glared at Xu Gang. “Your sister never gave me the time of day, never showed me any respect, but I didn’t care then… I thought it was because I hadn’t spent enough time with Xu Xin, so I specifically came back from abroad with you this time. But I never expected Xu Xin’s boyfriend to be *that* Luo Feng. I can’t compete with him. If I really tried, my dad would probably break my legs!”

Sun Chao’s father was a Wargod-level expert! He was a guest Wargod of the Xu family.

Because of his father’s status, Sun Chao was qualified to manage a small portion of the Xu family’s business in America. Sun Chao knew very well… his father clearly couldn’t compare to *this* Luo Feng. Would he dare to provoke him? Steal someone’s girlfriend, and not just anyone’s, but Luo Feng’s girlfriend? Was he looking for death?

“And you, you didn’t even tell me in advance that Xu Xin had such a boyfriend,” Sun Chao complained.

“You’re blaming me? This trip has been so busy. I’ve been busy checking on the family’s business in America. I’ve been in America the whole time, and I’ve only seen you three times. How was I supposed to know you came back to the country to chase my sister? Didn’t you say earlier… you missed your hometown and wanted to see your parents?” Xu Gang retorted, wide-eyed.

Sun Chao was speechless.

That was just an excuse, wasn’t it? This trip back seemed to have been in vain. Oh well, at least he got to see his parents. As for Xu Xin, first, Xu Xin wasn’t interested, and second, the thought of Luo Feng’s legend sent shivers down Sun Chao’s spine. Damn… he was an ‘Invincible Wargod’! Killing him would be as easy as eating and drinking.

…

It was past eight in the evening. Night had fallen, and the dim glow of streetlights spilled onto the concrete street.

Luo Feng and Xu Xin walked side by side. They had eaten dinner together, and now, Luo Feng was walking Xu Xin home!

“Wealthy families really are different. Land in Base Cities is so scarce, yet the places where rich people live are so quiet, with so few people,” Luo Feng said with a smile. “If this were any other residential district, at this time, the streets would be bustling with cars and people. But here in the rich district, there are very few people.”

Xu Xin gave Luo Feng a speechless glance. “You say wealthy families? Don’t you have money? All of our family’s liquid assets combined aren’t even as much as your single intelligent fighter jet!”

Although the Xu family was one of the twelve great families in Huaxia Nation and very wealthy, most of their assets were fixed or invested. Their true liquid assets indeed couldn’t compare to Luo Feng’s intelligent fighter jet.

“How do you know about the intelligent fighter jet?” Luo Feng asked, surprised.

During dinner, Luo Feng had already learned that while Xu Gang and others had tried to conceal Luo Feng’s matters abroad, the truth eventually came out. After the ‘War God Palace Auction’ incident, Luo Feng’s fame grew even more. Xu Xin had also learned this news through the HR Alliance’s internal forum.

“Great Inspector Luo, your flying fighter jet is parked in Mingyue Residential District, but no pilot went in, and no pilot came out. Could it be that you are the pilot?” Xu Xin chuckled.

Luo Feng was speechless.

Pilot? Which flying fighter jet pilot doesn’t require extensive training? Even the most talented individual cannot become a flying fighter jet pilot without long-term training.

Since Luo Feng wasn’t a pilot, some figures within the HR Alliance naturally guessed that Luo Feng was piloting an ‘intelligent fighter jet’! Ordinary warriors might not know, but the powerful figures within the HR Alliance were very clear: a ‘King-tier intelligent fighter jet,’ even at the best internal price for high-ranking Inspectors and Patrol Inspectors within the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo, costs 180 billion Huaxia coins.

Major powers and the HR Alliance want to buy one?

Fine!

They’d need to offer a sufficiently high price. Want to buy it for 200 billion? Dream on!

“How about we go for a ride in the intelligent fighter jet?” Luo Feng suggested.

Xu Xin was somewhat tempted, but she checked her watch. “It’s getting late. If we go for a ride in the intelligent fighter jet and come back, it’ll be almost 11 or 12 o’clock.”

“It’ll be quick,” Luo Feng smiled, and at the same time commanded, “Number One, come here.”

“What are you doing?” Xu Xin asked, puzzled.

Luo Feng gave a mysterious smile, then looked up at the sky.

Xu Xin also looked up, puzzled.

A streak of light stopped overhead. It was a dark blue triangular fighter jet, slowly descending from mid-air. Xu Xin looked up at the triangular fighter jet in the sky, her mouth agape in astonishment. “So fast…”

“An intelligent fighter jet’s top speed exceeds Mach 10. As long as I’m on Earth, I can issue commands from a long distance,” Luo Feng said, pulling Xu Xin’s hand with a smile. “Come on, let’s go up!” Immediately, blades emerged from Luo Feng’s neck, 365 blades rapidly coalescing into the Duntiansuo. Luo Feng stepped onto the Duntiansuo, holding Xu Xin’s hand with one hand and her waist with the other.

Whoosh!

The Duntiansuo flew upwards, and the intelligent fighter jet’s hatch automatically opened in mid-air.

“This, this…” Xu Xin looked down in shock.

She was flying?

Then Xu Xin realized that Luo Feng was holding her!

“Xu Xin.” Luo Feng held Xu Xin’s waist, his body pressed against hers. He could feel the warmth of her soft body. He couldn’t help but look down at Xu Xin, a surge of impulse rising within him. He immediately lowered his head… and kissed her.

Blown by the wind in mid-air, Xu Xin felt a little dazed, her first kiss taken just like that.

Their lips parted.

Luo Feng looked down at the blushing Xu Xin and whispered, “From now on, you, Xu Xin, are my girlfriend.”

“You’re so domineering,” Xu Xin couldn’t help but glare. “What if I don’t agree?”

“I’ll let go and let you fall,” Luo Feng said with a hint of a smile, deliberately loosening his grip slightly.

Xu Xin’s body swayed, startling her. She looked at the trees and streets below and quickly said, “Be careful, we’re seventy or eighty meters above the ground.”

“Still dare to refuse?” Luo Feng chuckled.

“Hmph,” Xu Xin snorted with a smile. “You never confessed for so long, I thought you were too scared to.” Indeed… Luo Feng and Xu Xin often video chatted, sometimes for one or two hours. Although they hadn’t explicitly stated it, their conversations were like those of a couple.

Only a confession was missing.

“Because in the past, I didn’t have enough strength. I didn’t want you to worry and be afraid with me,” Luo Feng whispered.

Xu Xin’s eyes reddened slightly, and she buried her face in Luo Feng’s embrace.

Just like that…

The intelligent fighter jet hovered in mid-air. Beside it, Luo Feng embraced Xu Xin, standing on the Duntiansuo. For a long time…

…

This night was destined to be extraordinary.

Outer space above Earth.

Stars twinkled, and the vast cosmos was mysterious. No one knew what lay within the universe.

Whoosh!

A golden streak of light flew rapidly from the cosmic starry sky, heading directly towards Earth at a terrifying speed, almost light speed! This golden streak quickly pierced the atmosphere and plunged towards Earth!

Earth, Pacific Ocean, in the waters several hundred nautical miles from the many islands that were called the ‘Hawaiian Islands’ before the Great Nirvana period.

Whoosh!

The golden streak of light cut through the sky and plunged directly into the seawater. Strangely, its descent at nearly light speed caused not the slightest unusual ripple on the sea surface, which continued to undulate as before. Not only did the sea surface show no change, but no satellite or monitoring equipment across the entire Earth detected this golden streak of light!

Deep beneath the sea!

At a depth of over three thousand meters, the golden streak of light had dissipated, leaving only an oval-shaped black egg, approximately twelve meters in diameter. Strange golden patterns adorned its black shell. To put it in perspective, the so-called ‘dragon eggs’ on Earth are only about one meter in diameter.

At this moment—

Silence reigned!

Satellites from various countries on Earth, and even special monitoring equipment from ancient civilization ruins, continued to operate normally, just as before. Not a single one detected its arrival!
