Chapter 422: Pursuit

"Let's go chase the Andromeda Goddess!" A large crowd cheered, their faces alight with excitement, as if eager to stir up trouble.

Compared to them, figures like divine sons and goddesses were absolutely high above, belonging to a completely different level of existence with little to no overlap. Now that someone was leading the charge, they were happy to join the chaos and revel in the commotion.

All of them were extraterrestrial descendents who had recently emerged from the folded space behind the famous mountains. Their combined strength was formidable. Chu Feng chuckled to himself, hiding in the middle of the large group as they surged towards Mount Hua. If the young master of the Chen family from Penglai Immortal Island wasn't there, so be it, but if he was, he would certainly be suppressed and killed.

Behind them, people from the major financial groups exchanged uneasy glances. They found it strange, confirming that the "Devil King Chu" truly lived up to his reputation as a bringer of misfortune; trouble seemed to follow him everywhere. They dared not get involved in such matters, as it concerned figures like the goddess and the Penglai young master. Getting drawn in without understanding the depth of the situation would surely lead to their demise.

"Huang Tong, stop causing trouble!" Ye Lan chased after them, her expression displeased. Unable to scold Chu Feng directly, she turned her frustration on Huang Tong, the Golden Divine Son's follower. She could see that Huang Tong was overly enthusiastic, inciting everyone to rush towards Mount Hua, clearly acting in the interest of his master, the Golden Divine Son.

Huang Tong, with his lion-like face and human body, appeared rugged but was actually quite articulate. He immediately retorted, "What's wrong with us seeking justice when Brother Chu is being bullied? That young master of the Chen family is too arrogant, daring to send people to kill Brother Chu Feng! We won't stand for it, and neither will His Highness, the Golden Divine Son! I truly don't understand why the Andromeda Goddess is so close to the Penglai young master; it's preposterous! Let's go, brothers, grab your weapons and chop them up!"

Someone echoed, "Penglai young master? What a load of rubbish, never even heard of him! Just slaughter him!" The crowd roared chaotically as they rushed forward, making the ground tremble.

They weren't going to war with a goddess; they were just fighting a Penglai young master. They felt no psychological pressure. As descendents, what was there to fear when so many of them were together? "Don't spread baseless rumors! How could the Andromeda Goddess be close to that Penglai young master!?" Ye Lan snapped.

But who was listening now? No one paid attention to her reasoning. Everyone knew what was going on; they simply wanted to join the excitement, clearly not minding the commotion. "When we get there, no idle talk! Just attack directly, beat them to a pulp, kill the Penglai young master, and vent our anger for Brother Chu!" Huang Tong instigated.

This was like a flash flood, thundering towards Mount Hua, and Ye Lan was utterly powerless to stop them. She wasn't concerned for the Penglai young master, but rather for the reputation of the Andromeda Goddess. With so many people spreading rumors and some even shouting about pursuing the goddess, it was completely out of line.

Ye Lan even felt she needed to explain things to Chu Feng, fearing he might misunderstand. In truth, she was quite flustered, having participated in the killing of the unicorn, completely unaware that the Penglai young master was at Mount Hua at the time, pursuing the Andromeda Goddess.

Mount Hua is located in Shaanxi Province, but the speed of this group was no issue at all. In ancient times, such beings on Earth were considered terrestrial immortals; even if they couldn't fly, their speed far surpassed that of birds. Traveling to the East Sea in the morning and staying in West Kunlun by evening would be no problem for them.

They traversed Hubei and entered Shaanxi Province. Finally, Mount Hua was in sight!

The outside world was following this event, and people were greatly astonished. A group of extraterrestrials running at full speed, making the ground tremble—how could they travel from Hubei to Shaanxi so quickly? It was incredibly fast!

Mount Hua has been known since ancient times as the most perilous and majestic mountain under heaven. From a distance, its peaks appeared steep and towered into the clouds. After the world-altering changes, the mountain range here had grown many times larger, with numerous colossal, unseen peaks rising from the ground. Vast seas of clouds extended only halfway up the mountain, revealing its immense grandeur and power.

"This mountain is truly extraordinary!" someone muttered. As one of the Five Great Mountains, its status was transcendent.

Upon arrival, everyone quieted down considerably. Chu Feng gazed intently, sensing the aura of a vast field. This place was exceptionally complex; many peaks contained internal field symbols, grand as the heavens.

There's a saying that ancient ancestors first resided around Mount Hua, considering it the birthplace of civilization, a sacred mountain, and the root of Huaxia.

The group dared not trespass recklessly; no one attempted to ascend the primary main peak. Instead, they rushed towards the back of the mountain, approaching the folded space.

The wind rustled through the pines, and clear springs gurgled. The spiritual energy in this mountainous area was dense, with special "immortal mist" energy factors, giving it a slightly hazy appearance. "Once we get there, don't say anything, just start fighting directly! Pin that Penglai young master to the ground and beat him!" Huang Tong reminded them.

Chu Feng was quite pleased, casting a grateful look at him. This area was rich with lush vegetation, numerous waterfalls, and many luminous vines covering cliff faces and giant trees.

Within a folded space, the energy concentration was very high. There were quite a few people inside, all masters from Andromeda. Chu Feng noticed that outside the folded space, several individuals carried themselves with exceptional dignity. Among them was a very handsome young man in white, accompanied by several burly evolvers.

"Are you from Penglai?" Chu Feng called out. "Yes!" someone on the opposite side replied. "No more talk, brothers, charge! Take them all down, break every bone!" Huang Tong shouted, rallying everyone to attack together.

Boom, boom, boom... One energy beam after another shot up and flew forward. Everyone attacked simultaneously, unleashing a barrage. This group was utterly uncouth and brutal; they began fighting immediately upon arrival, launching a crude and savage assault on the individuals, relying purely on brute force to overwhelm them.

The faces of the people opposite immediately turned ashen. What was happening? Such a huge group came thundering in, confirmed their identities, and then attacked without another word. They couldn't even run; the mob half-surrounded them, and such barbaric assault was truly terrifying.

In an instant, brilliant light erupted from their bodies; they all possessed formidable secret treasures and quickly activated their defenses. Counterattacking was impossible; the sheer number of opponents, a dense, dark mass, forced them into an utterly passive state. Their only option was to first preserve their lives.

The forest exploded, rocks and dirt flew, and even magma was melted out by the intense heat. In front, the individuals screamed as their secret treasures shattered one after another, and some instantly burst into bloody mist.

With such a large group of descendents working together, let alone these few individuals, even a Free-and-Easy Realm being would likely feel intimidated. There were simply too many people, an overwhelming swarm.

"Ah..." In the end, Chu Feng's side was slightly slow in halting their attack, and the residual energy waves swept forth, causing two more individuals from Penglai Immortal Island to explode into smithereens.

Their secret treasures were all shattered, their defenses rendered useless. Naturally, they were killed with ease. In the end, only the young man in white survived, thanks to a secret treasure he possessed, though he had already fainted, covered in blood, lying limp on the ground. However, his tower-shaped secret treasure was now cracked and scattered, barely preserving his life.

Just like that, in an instant, this group dealt with the people from Penglai Immortal Island. "So weak?" Chu Feng thought they were too fragile. He hadn't even truly begun fighting; each person had only launched one or two attacks, and the battle was over.

"Brother Chu Feng, look at how many of us came? At least a hundred, if not two hundred, and all of us are descendents. If we couldn't instantly blow them up, what face would we have?" Huang Tong said. The fact that the man in white was not dead only showed how powerful his secret treasure was.

"Drag that fellow in white aside, wake him up later, and make him draw circles in the corner over there, watching Brother Chu Feng passionately pursue the Andromeda Goddess." Huang Tong was truly blunt, leading a few people to deal with the unconscious young man in white.

Inside the folded space, the people from Andromeda were dumbfounded. They were still perplexed as to why this group had gone insane, launching such a barbaric attack and directly obliterating the Penglai people. Ye Lan quickly entered the folded space to report.

In outer space, Qing Lan spoke, beckoning Yang Xuan and Hu Qingcheng. "Come quickly, there's a new development." "No thanks!" Yang Xuan replied, preferring to keep out of sight, out of mind. These days, he avoided touching the crystallized Dao fruits of the All-Seeing Eye and All-Hearing Ear, fearing he might get too upset.

Hu Qingcheng smiled sweetly, her eyes alluring. "You're just avoiding it. How can you miss something interesting? Let's go, enjoy the show; it's probably another surprise from that fellow." She was unaware that this time, Chu Feng had encountered her sister at Mount Hua.

"Exactly, it's that fellow, and there's quite a surprise," Qing Lan said with a smile, urging them to come over quickly.

Hu Qingcheng smiled, "I bet he's gone to Mount Yandang again, meeting Saintess Yang Shan. That would be very interesting. Could that guy be trying to pick up women?" Qing Lan's smile was peculiar. "Well... it's a bit different, but similar. That fellow is indeed shamelessly pursuing someone with great fervor!"

"What?! I'll kill him!" Yang Xuan cried out, finally unable to resist rushing over to see for himself. Hu Qingcheng chuckled, "Life is but a series of tragicomedies; just sit back and enjoy the show."

After gazing at it, Yang Xuan froze completely, his eyes wide and fixed. Hu Qingcheng approached with light steps through the void, her face full of smiles. "What, are you both stunned? Could it be that your saintess cousin is flirting with him, and their relationship is truly ambiguous?"

Qing Lan said, "That young man really has a way about him. He gathered over a hundred extraterrestrial evolvers, crushed his love rival, and then proceeded to openly pursue the girl right in front of his rival."

Hu Qingcheng giggled, "Interesting! Look, Yang Xuan is dumbfounded. Is he going to explode with rage again?" Then, she finally stepped closer, using her All-Seeing Eye and All-Hearing Ear to investigate. "Huh?!" The next moment, Hu Qingcheng was stunned, unable to believe her eyes.

Only then did Yang Xuan turn back, speaking calmly, "He's pursuing your sister." Hu Qingcheng was speechless.

The events on the ground rendered her speechless. That fellow had gathered a crowd at Mount Hua, causing a commotion, not to entangle with Saintess Yang Shan, but surprisingly, to target her own younger sister! Yang Xuan calmly remarked, "Life is but a series of tragicomedies; just sit back and enjoy the show." Upon hearing this, Hu Qingcheng was so furious she almost vomited blood. That guy had returned her exact words without changing a single one.
