"What's going on? It was clear skies just now, how did it suddenly start thundering?"
Lin Shuainan stared as his fiery buzz cut emerged!
Crack!
A bolt of lightning struck down, landing right by Lin Shuainan's feet, scaring him into scrambling away!
"Oh my god, I haven't done anything wrong, Lord Thunder, please don't strike me, I'm a good person!"
Lin Shuainan's plea seemed to work, as no more lightning struck. However, the rain intensified, as if to wash away all the filth of the city.
Six hours later, it was deep into the night.
Yang Fei stood by the window, his back to everyone, gazing at the muffled thunder rumbling within the dark clouds overhead.
"This is a bit unusual!"
Yang Fei couldn't help but furrow his brow, muttering to himself.
Lin Shuainan, bored, immediately popped out upon hearing this.
"You noticed it too? I've been feeling like there are eyes in the sky watching us. Don't go out, be careful of getting struck by lightning!"
Yang Fei was taken aback by Lin Shuainan's remark.
"You're the one who'll get struck by lightning!"
"Yeah, I almost got struck by lightning this afternoon..."
Crack!
Before Lin Shuainan could finish speaking, a sudden flash of lightning illuminated the area, causing everyone to experience a ringing in their ears.
The two girls even cried out in fright!
Yang Fei shook his head vigorously, his eyes bloodshot and widened to the extreme.
"How can this be? Is this place really going to be struck by lightning?"
Splat!
Abruptly, a large wooden plank fell from outside the window, still on fire. Following it, a large amount of building debris rained down – bricks, glass, and even a steel bar dangled precariously in front of Yang Fei and the others!
"Not good! It's Big Brother upstairs who's getting struck by lightning!"
Lin Shuainan suddenly yelped and was about to rush upstairs to check, but Yang Fei had already darted out.
"Hey, hey, don't go outside, be careful of the lightning!"
Lin Shuainan quickly tried to stop him, but it was too late.
Xiuxiu patted Lin Shuainan on the back and urged him, "Hurry up and go check, if the lightning is meant for you, hiding inside won't help!"
Thump thump thump!
They rushed upstairs.
However, standing on the wooden floor of the third floor, everyone was dumbfounded!
There was no third floor anymore; the entire roof had been blown off. The wooden floor was scorched with flames, which were quickly extinguished by the rain, leaving behind wisps of smoke!
And around Ling Feng, within a radius of about half a meter, he was completely unharmed!
"This... what's going on? Big Brother wasn't struck by lightning?"
Lin Shuainan looked at the scene with utter confusion, completely bewildered.
Yang Fei, who had arrived first, saw something others hadn't: streaks of lightning and electricity had been swirling around Ling Feng earlier.
But in the blink of an eye, they had entered Ling Feng's body, as if absorbed by him.
"Shut up, don't disturb Big Brother!"
Yang Fei's expression was grim as he stopped Lin Shuainan's careless talk.
The two girls beside them were already pale, this was too bizarre.
How could Ling Feng be struck by lightning out of nowhere?
"Look, the thing in his hand, it seems..."
Abruptly, Ba Yilan couldn't help but exclaim.
Yang Fei's eyes widened slightly as he saw the Immortal Doctor's Secret Tome, which Ling Feng had been holding in both hands, instantly turn to dust and vanish.
This made Yang Fei's face turn deathly pale.
"Is this the inherited medical tome given by Elder Hua? How could this happen? Was it destroyed by lightning? But why wasn't Heavenly Venerate harmed at all?"
Everyone's hearts were filled with questions, but they dared not speak again, fearing that a bolt of heavenly lightning would strike, causing Ling Feng to vanish into dust like the medical tome!
They had only seen the medical tome turn to dust and disappear, but they hadn't seen the streaks of lightning and electricity that had entered Ling Feng's body earlier.
At this moment, the Immortal Doctor's Secret Tome had appeared in Ling Feng's mind, becoming one with him!
Boom!
In a chaotic void, the chessboard before Ling Feng had only progressed seventy-two moves!
At this time, Ling Feng's pace of placing stones, as well as the pace of the heavenly lightning striking and placing stones, had become extremely slow.
Each move required over ten minutes of thought.
"Too slow!"
Ling Feng seemed to sense that too much time had passed, and finally found a flaw in the opponent's strategy.
He let out a sharp cry.
This startled the surrounding people.
Then, everyone saw Ling Feng's eyes open, his figure soaring, stepping onto the sky step by step. Under the dark night sky, a golden chessboard appeared in the sky!
A large amount of rainwater turned into steam and mist, obscuring this earth-shattering scene!
But even so, people outside could still see the rolling thunder, as if a giant dragon was constantly churning within the mist. Such a celestial phenomenon had driven people outside into a frenzy.
"Look! Is that a dragon over there!"
"Tch, it's just thunder, you're trying to trick me. Last time you called me to watch, you were just waving a faucet in front of the camera, calling it a dragon's head. I don't believe you!"
"Brother, I'm really not lying to you, look! There's really a dragon!"
"Really... Holy crap! There's really a dragon! Quick, film it, hurry up, get more followers! My friends, look, a dragon has appeared in Nanyun!"
Such shouts echoed throughout Yanqing County, and even the entire Nanyun region sensed the anomaly here!
But unfortunately, they could only gaze from afar, unable to truly understand what was happening within.
Yang Fei and the others were different. They looked up, their faces filled with horror as they witnessed the scene, utterly shocked!
"Boom!"
"My heavens, Yang Ge, Yang Ge, what is that?"
Lin Shuainan yelped, pointing at a giant hand emerging from the dark clouds in the sky!
A transparent, faintly visible giant hand, holding a golden ball of lightning, struck down!
Immediately after, the chessboard vibrated, and a chess piece made of lightning appeared on it!
Yang Fei and Lin Shuainan's thought processes were different. Faced with such a scene of "the sky collapsing and the earth shattering with a purple-gold hammer...", Yang Fei was speechless, overwhelmed by an unparalleled shock, wanting to prostrate himself on the ground, unable to rise again!
But facing this heavenly hand, Ling Feng's posture was extremely proud. With a raise of his hand, a ball of blood flame appeared in his palm.
He casually tossed it away!
Bang!
The blood flame chess piece landed.
Perhaps due to the rapid pace, the giant hand above didn't have time to retract and dropped another piece of lightning!
Rumble!
Bang!
Rumble!
And so, the rhythm grew faster and faster.
Finally, the giant hand became more condensed, shining with golden light, but the ball of heavenly lightning in its hand grew weaker and weaker!
Meanwhile, Ling Feng was enveloped in blood flame, his expression extremely excited, his eyes filled with the fervor of a lone defender!
