Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 592 - 344: Storm Rising_2

And the second possibility was that these people, after discovering his core membership in the Heavenly Court, became greedy and some had inappropriate thoughts.

But even if that possibility arose, Ye Feng had absolute confidence to handle all trouble.

As long as the World Tree Body remained here, and his family did not leave the area of Yang City, he feared no danger.

Regardless of the result, Ye Feng believed he would know the answer soon.

Indeed, as he predicted, the news travelled at top speed to the capital and a meeting that lasted an hour was called.

Ultimately, a series of orders were dispatched towards Yang City.

In a blink, it was 11 o’clock.

This was two hours after Ye Feng had participated in the preliminary selection.

"Old Liu, it’s time to eat. Aren’t you going to have something?" Bai Yinghui, holding a take-out meal bought by the staff, asked while eating.

"I really admire you. With such a big issue at hand, you can still eat," Liu Zaoxin said irritatedly.

"What’s there to stop eating over? Do you expect me to keep pacing in the office like you? Apart from getting more agitated, what good does that do? Will it speed up the investigation?" Bai Yinghui retorted irritably.

He was the one to receive the order two hours ago to assist in dealing with Ye Feng’s matter.

It was then that he learned of Ye Feng’s existence and instantly realized what such an exceptional monster meant for humanity.

He immediately dropped all his work at hand and rushed over at the first opportunity.

The orders that needed to be issued had already been given; now, all they could do was wait for the results.

Just then, a staff member, with a pile of documents in hand, hurried into the office.

"Report! These are the detailed findings from the various investigation teams," the staff member said aloud, saluting the military way.

Without saying another word, Bai Yinghui dropped his chopsticks and dashed to the staff member, snatching the documents from his hands.

Although Liu Zaoxin was a step behind, he immediately gathered round; the two spread the documents on the office table and quickly started to examine them.

In fact, after receiving the report, Liu Zaoxin had immediately ordered an investigation into Ye Feng’s background.

Within half an hour, a rough dossier was laid out in front of his desk.

And he received quite a shock when he read it.

Because according to the documents, Ye Feng was listed as a deceased person.

The individual had gone missing more than three months ago while following a university-organized scientific expedition team to Small Phoenix Mountain to collect samples.

Although his body was never found, given the length of his disappearance and the circumstances at the time, it was impossible for a regular person to survive in the wild, so he was soon declared dead.

But now, such a vividly alive person appeared before them, which was clearly abnormal.

And that was not the only anomaly.

From the documents, they also saw that Ye Feng had many connections with Chen Dalong.

First off, after Ye Feng’s disappearance, Chen Dalong’s security company repeatedly helped Ye Feng’s family.

Especially during the crisis when mutated insects attacked, the military had even dispatched a squad to protect Ye Feng’s family.

Secondly, Ye Feng had immediately connected with Chen Dalong upon his resurrection in the past few days.

The most inconceivable part was that Chen Dalong had actually transferred 20% of Mad Dragon Group’s shares unconditionally to Ye Feng.

It must be noted that Mad Dragon Group’s market value had soared over 3 billion in just over a month, and there were no signs of this trend stopping.

Many estimated that within the year, Mad Dragon Group’s market value could skyrocket to over 10 billion.

Especially one of its subsidiaries, Mad Dragon Pharmaceuticals, which was practically a gold mine.

In this context, a 20% shareholding signified 2 billion or even more.

Then why was Chen Dalong so good to Ye Feng?

However, as they continued their investigation, they found that Chen Dalong and Ye Feng had no interactions whatsoever.

All these were doubtful points.

It was precisely because of this that the detailed investigation that followed took place.

Staring at the stack of documents in front of them, both were filled with anticipation, yet as they kept flipping through them,

the documents flew through their hands, but their brows tightened more and more.

Indeed, there was a wealth of detail in the documents at hand; they almost contained detailed reports on everything that Ye Feng had done, every place he had visited, and everything he had eaten over the days since his return.

But what they really wanted to know was not this; what exactly had happened during the nearly four months that Ye Feng had been missing?

It took only ten minutes for the two to roughly go through all the documents, but they did not find any truly useful content.

"Now the only paths we can take are two, first, directly go ask Ye Feng,"

"Second, call Chen Dalong over and ask him what’s going on," said Liu Zaoxin, rubbing his temples.

In fact, he had thought to do just that after a cursory glance at Ye Feng’s information at the beginning, but had been stopped by Bai Yinghui.

Now hearing the suggestion again, Bai Yinghui pondered for a moment before saying, "After disappearing for several months, Ye Feng dares to appear in public and even attend the Talent Cultivation Program, which means he should not be averse to contact with us."

"So a frank discussion should be no problem, but not right now. If we calculate the time, Wu Yuqin should be arriving soon."

"Once she completes the exploration of Ye Feng and confirms his cultivation level, we can negotiate, and it will be easier to control the extent of our discussion."

Although according to the information reported by Zhao Bing and others, Ye Feng had tested with devices and was found to be at the Third Order Peak,

they knew very well that these detection devices were not 100% accurate.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have a supplementary rule that allowed those who doubted their cultivation test results to appeal, and every city was equipped with a Spiritual Supowered Being tasked with detailed exploration.

The truth about whether Ye Feng was at the Third Order Peak was very important to them.

If Ye Feng was truly at the Third Order Peak, and his physical fitness as well as superpowers reached the Fourth Order Peak Level, it meant that Ye Feng had the ability to fight beyond his level.

That would be a true peerless genius, worth cultivating with all efforts.

But if it was just the device at fault and Ye Feng’s actual level was at the Fourth Order Peak, then he would not be so dazzling.

Even if Ye Feng was at the Fourth Order Peak, with three top-level superpowers, he would still be regarded as the first in human talent.

But when considering all races, it was not necessarily the case. Comparing him to the strong beings in the forbidden areas, it was hard to say whether he had any advantage.

After all, the higher the cultivation, the more difficult it becomes to progress further.

So at a certain point, the enemies you face, when they were weak, they were actually geniuses.

Just like those who could break through to the Seventh Order, none of them lacked talent.

Therefore, even if one could fight above their level at lower stages, after reaching the Seventh Order, at most they could only be deemed invincible within their own level, but it was nearly impossible to continue fighting beyond that.

And if you could only be invincible within your own level at lower stages, then even after reaching the Seventh Order, you might still be better than other Seventh Order Strongmen, but such excellence would be limited.

One-on-one you might win, but if the opponent sent two, three, or even more Seventh Order Strongmen, you might not be able to withstand them.

Therefore, they needed to bring Wu Yuqin, the number one Spiritual Power expert, to verify Ye Feng’s true cultivation level and thus confirm his talent.

Liu Zaoxin naturally understood this concept.

However, after hearing Bai Yinghui’s words, he was still somewhat surprised, "You’re saying Wu Yuqin is arriving soon? Didn’t she just take a charter flight here an hour ago? How could it possibly be so fast flying from the capital."

Bai Yinghui glanced at him, "A regular passenger jet certainly wouldn’t make it, but what if she’s on a supersonic fighter jet?"

Liu Zaoxin couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
