CHAPTER 474: CHAPTER 263: RADIANT SECRET REALM, STAR PALACE FORCES

That day.

The Security Bureau’s patrol car sped in, the yellow caution tape being pulled open on both sides.

Security officers appeared on the scene, armed special operations members stood guard, isolating many onlookers.

"Councilman Chen, are you alright?"

The captain of the security team was a familiar face.

A middle-aged man, indeed it was the newly promoted Xiang Jianjun.

Chen Feng nodded in response, with people from the Martial Arts Hall like Cao Tong already arriving to assist with coordinating relevant matters.

"Director Zhang is very concerned about your situation, but he’s tied up with the Evil God Church issue over at Luo River."

Xiang Jianjun quickly said, looking at the young man before him, sighing in his heart.

Once a supermarket cashier.

Now a councilman in the City Association.

It’s uncertain when the other party suddenly leapt up to become a true big figure in Nanjiang.

And himself, benefiting from past good karma, quietly got promoted.

"No problem."

Chen Feng shook his head, having just received phone inquiries from Chu Shihong and Zhang Songta.

They were concerned about his safety, but more than that, puzzled by the sudden appearance of a Fifth-Order Expert.

"Did you find out his identity?"

Chen Feng asked, looking down at the corpse being taken away by forensic experts nearby.

The old man in the black bomber jacket had his face transformed, finally becoming a more ordinary and unfamiliar elder.

No martial arts traces, withered all around, full of wrinkles.

In stark contrast to his previous appearance.

"Still retrieving data from the database, the deceased is likely not from Nanjiang."

Xiang Jianjun speculated, as their jurisdiction was limited to Nanjiang, anything beyond required reporting, with a higher-level Security Bureau managing a larger database.

"Hmm."

Chen Feng had anticipated this and wasn’t disappointed.

The other party dared to come knocking, surely hiding something.

Moreover, his intuition told him that the Divine Martial Alliance Leader wasn’t dead.

Close to the strength of Strong Fifth Order, the deceased might have been just a substitute.

"Councilman Chen, there are many people observing."

"You see..." Xiang Jianjun accompanied him throughout, and also the Deputy Director of the Security Bureau came over, smiling in a friendly manner.

Chen Feng looked around at many onlookers.

Some were talking, some pulling out phones to film, uploading it online.

Knowing this might have some negative social impact, he decided to leave the scene.

"Then I’ll leave it to you guys."

"Not a problem, it’s our duty!"

The Deputy Director of the Security Bureau was a skinny middle-aged man, smiling earnestly.

Chen Feng nodded before getting into a black car, leaving the scene.

The outside was bustling, to avoid further impact, he planned to visit the school’s Mountain Gate and check on his master and others whom he hadn’t seen in days.

Besides.

Looking at the chaos and doubts isolated by the black car’s window.

It was his first time truly experiencing the special status of a councilman.

"Power huh...."

He sighed a little, but quickly put it aside.

Ultimately, it was due to his own strength, everything else stacked upon that.

With his thoughts settled, he opened the chat app.

Star Palace.... This is the power behind the Divine Martial Alliance Leader.

It only recruits Martial Artists with Martial Arts Extreme Realm, encompassing all countries on Earth Star.

The other party may only be one of their leaders, the energy of this organization is predictably vast.

Therefore, he wanted to understand the situation as much as possible.

Buzz buzz!

Soon, several messages came in succession.

[Zhou Wuren: Haven’t heard of them, I can ask Old Zhang, the leader]

[Lin Hao: I’ll check]

Looking at the chat app, Chen Feng didn’t have contact with Yang Wudi, otherwise he’d ask him.

Then, he was about to put his phone away.

But soon, Lin Hao sent another message.

[Lin Hao: Regarding the new city construction in Nanjiang, I asked around and found out a critical detail.]

Oh? Chen Feng got a bit intrigued.

Recently, he heard many speculations, local councilmen were moving in connections.

But unfortunately, most were just rumors, hard to trust.

Buzz buzz!

The phone vibrated again, Lin Hao did not hold back.

[Lin Hao: It’s rumored that it might be related to Radiant City.]

The message made Chen Feng’s gaze tighten.

Radiant City?

Radiant City is thousands of miles away, how could it be related to Nanjiang’s new city construction?

Wait...

Suddenly, he thought of a critical point.

Looks like the Radiant Secret Realm entered Chi Country’s territory, it’s been almost forty years.

In other words.

"Is the Radiant Secret Realm moving to Nanjiang’s territory?"

[Lin Hao: Not sure, the person who inquired didn’t get a definitive answer, but I feel this is the most likely scenario.]

[The Radiant Secret Realm moves once every forty years, considering the timeline, it is just around this period....]

He shared quite a lot of his thoughts and guesses, backed by various researched materials.

After reading the messages, sitting in the back seat of the black car, Chen Feng felt a bit uneasy.

It was Earth’s first discovered ancient civilization’s secret realm relic in human history, unexpected that one day it would be so close to him.

Also, according to Lin Hao’s statement.

The Radiant Secret Realm has already been discovered for 120 years, with a high level of development, all kinds of constructions are complete, its danger has long been minimized, and many social elites and some high-level figures reside in it.

To a certain extent, calling it a new secret realm city is not inaccurate.

"Yet who knows, when that time comes."

"Where will the Nanjiang City Union stand?"

The thought flashed by, but Chen Feng finally suppressed any excessive ideas.

The secret realm’s movement is not a matter of a day or two, high wall construction has just started.

He just needed to seize the present.

Buzz!

Soon, the black car drove slowly towards the low hills in Nanjiang Suburb.
