Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 770: What Level is Lin Feng Really At?

"What, you are now a AAA-class expert? How is that possible!" Sure enough, when Man Long heard Leng Hao say this, he sobered up in an instant. He never imagined such a thing happening—it was utterly inconceivable. How could Leng Hao possibly leap so far and become a AAA-class expert overnight? That’s impossible, no matter how fast one’s cultivation progresses. Even at the fastest, the process from AA-class to AAA would take several years. No matter what, Leng Hao couldn’t have bypassed this process. What... What on earth is going on?"

But Man Long knew that Leng Hao wouldn’t lie to him. What was happening, then, to make him believe that Leng Hao had become a AAA-class expert? He couldn’t believe it no matter what because it was just too bizarre. How could anyone make such a leap over two bottlenecks in such a short period? That is absolutely impossible!

Finding out that Leng Hao was a AAA-class expert shook Man Long more than anything he had experienced at the wedding he attended that day. Right now, he immediately needed to confirm whether Leng Hao had truly become a AAA-class expert. It was too incredulous. If Leng Hao became a AAA-class expert at such a young age, then given time, Leng Hao would undoubtedly become a leading figure among the new generation of cultivators. He knew that even the young members from the prominent families hadn’t reached AAA-class expert status at Leng Hao’s age. How could he believe it!

With that thought, Man Long grabbed Leng Hao’s hand. As an S-level super powerhouse, it was quite easy for him to probe Leng Hao’s true strength, but Man Long could never have dreamed that, without even trying, Leng Hao’s power was immediately apparent. That was the genuine strength of a AAA-class expert, even though he had just entered the rank of AAA. But that was still the power of a AAA-class expert—how could this be? How could Leng Hao have achieved such consecutive breakthroughs in such a short period? This had already defied all common sense in the Cultivation World—this was simply too inconceivable!

Man Long looked at Leng Hao, his eyes filled with disbelief. He truly couldn’t fathom any method that would allow a cultivator to progress so much in such a short span. This was no ordinary matter. Even his mentor, Old Monster, would not be able to help someone break through consecutive bottlenecks so rapidly. This was just too bizarre. If he hadn’t witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never believe that someone like Leng Hao could exist in the Cultivation World.

"Xiao Hao, what... What exactly happened? How could you possibly have become a AAA-class expert in such a short time? Quickly... Quickly tell Uncle Man what happened." Thinking of this, Man Long hurriedly questioned Leng Hao. He was extremely eager to know what peculiar events had taken place to cause such an earth-shattering change in Leng Hao in such a short period. Such an example had never appeared in the Cultivation World before—it was truly inconceivable!

"Uncle Man, here’s what happened..." Leng Hao of course knew what was in Man Long’s mind. If it were the former him, he would not believe that he himself could have changed so drastically in such a short span of time. So he quickly recounted the recent events, including how Lin Feng used the Ancient Exotic Jade to forcefully boost his cultivation, bringing him to the peak of AA-class, and also the events that occurred in Africa and how he advanced to AAA-class in battle. The sole purpose was to let Man Long know just how incredible his brother-in-law Lin Feng was.

"So that’s what happened. You underwent such an extraordinary adventure during this period. That’s also your good fortune; such luck would never occur to anyone else. Now that you have entered AAA-class, I will give you some guidance when there’s time. For today, let’s end here. Uncle has some matters to attend to, so you should head back."

After hearing what Leng Hao said, Man Long didn’t reveal too much and simply sent Leng Hao back, finding an excuse to take his leave. But inside, Man Long’s heart was already set tumultuous by the astounding news—it was simply too inconceivable!

First of all, the fact that Lin Feng could use Ancient Exotic Jade to enhance Leng Hao’s cultivation was astonishing. Man Long also knew about the existence of such items from Old Monster, his mentor, and was aware of the tremendous value these rare Ancient Exotic Jades had for cultivators. However, the energy contained in the Ancient Exotic Jade was supposed to be refined slowly by oneself. He had never heard of using it to boost someone else’s cultivation in such a short amount of time—it was simply too inconceivable. Not to mention that he couldn’t do it, even his mentor, Old Monster, absolutely couldn’t do it!

Then... how did Lin Feng do it? Considering Lin Feng’s young age, how could he possess such astonishing and unrivaled strength in cultivation? It was so formidable it was beyond description. To achieve what he and his mentor couldn’t—that Lin Feng was truly too inconceivable!

And then, hearing about Leng Hao’s journey to Africa was even more astonishing to Man Long because Leng Hao mentioned Zhu Tao, who was an S-level super powerhouse just like him, willingly serving as Lin Feng’s steward. What’s more, Zhu Tao took Leng Hao to Africa, guiding him in battle to advance to a AAA-class expert. This was simply too inconceivable—how could an S-level super powerhouse possibly serve happily as a steward for Lin Feng? How could this be believed!

S-level super powerhouses were exceptional beings in this world, not to be conquered by others, let alone willingly serve as someone’s steward. This had never happened before in the Cultivation World—how could it be possible? How could Lin Feng make Zhu Tao willingly serve as a steward? No matter how hard Man Long thought, he couldn’t comprehend what kind of events had taken place to make an S-level super powerhouse become a steward.

Thinking of this, Man Long’s heart was thoroughly shaken by Lin Feng. He felt he truly couldn’t see through Lin Feng anymore. The information gathered from the previous investigations seemed utterly weak and insignificant now in Man Long’s view. He even had a growing feeling that the speculation about Liu Hong dying at the hands of Lin Feng was very likely true. If Lin Feng were not a Super Powerhouse, he could not possibly make a Super Powerhouse like Zhu Tao follow him. What level had Lin Feng actually reached now?

The question occupied Man Long’s entire mind, and after much contemplation, he decided to seek out Wang Anjun. As Wang Anjun’s superior, Man Long had long known Wang Anjun was Lin Feng’s senior fellow disciple. He hoped to find a breakthrough from Wang Anjun and learn just how powerful Lin Feng truly was. With that thought, Man Long immediately took out his phone and dialed Wang Anjun’s number.

"Anjun, it’s me, Man Long." As soon as the call connected, Man Long resumed his original imposing manner, his tone revealing authority.

"Boss, is there something you need me to do?" Wang Anjun was quite surprised to receive a call from Man Long all of a sudden. He wondered to himself why the boss would call him out of the blue. Could it be that there was another important task for him?

"There’s no task. I want to ask you something. What level of master is your junior brother Lin Feng?" Hearing Wang Anjun’s response, Man Long knew that Wang Anjun had misunderstood. He really didn’t have a task for Wang Anjun; he simply wanted to know how formidable Lin Feng was. After all, Wang Anjun was Lin Feng’s senior fellow disciple and should have a good understanding of Lin Feng’s affairs.

"Boss, why do you ask? Could it be that my junior brother has gotten into some trouble? Impossible. My junior brother is indifferent to so many things. How could he have caught your attention?"

Wang Anjun felt a sudden flush of tension on hearing Man Long’s question. As a member of a special department, his first thought was that his junior brother had run into some trouble, yet on further thought, that seemed unlikely. His junior brother was so indifferent to everything; there was no way he could’ve done something to endanger national security, so there was no chance he could’ve caught Man Long’s attention. What was this all about?

Wang Anjun’s heart was extremely restless, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t understand why Man Long would suddenly call him. What did Man Long mean? Could it be... could it be that his junior brother really had encountered some sort of problem?

"It’s nothing. You’re overthinking it. I just want to know what level of master Lin Feng is, that’s all." Hearing Wang Anjun’s words, Man Long replied with a laugh, realizing Wang Anjun had misunderstood him again. This couldn’t be blamed on Wang Anjun; he probably cared too much about Lin Feng and was trying to protect him, which was a natural reaction.

"Boss, I really don’t know how capable my junior brother is. I am just a nominal disciple of our master, and I only stayed with him for a few days, but my junior brother is the direct disciple of our master. Moreover, reaching the AAA rank was entirely due to my junior brother’s help in overcoming my bottleneck. Otherwise, I would never have achieved the AAA rank." Upon hearing Man Long say this, Wang Anjun’s tension eased. Seeing that his junior brother hadn’t gotten into any trouble, he decided to be honest with Man Long. Man Long was his direct superior and he knew Man Long’s character well – he wouldn’t give his junior brother a hard time.

"Alright, I understand." After finishing, Man Long hung up the phone, but his heart was filled with even more shock. Wang Anjun’s words had revealed too much information, and in Man Long’s mind, it set off huge waves.

Man Long knew Wang Anjun very well. First of all, although Wang Anjun was not particularly capable, that was due to being stuck at the AA level for many years. Based on Wang Anjun’s previous cultivation pace, he would definitely be considered fast, and everyone in the special action team knew that it was only after meeting their master that such a change happened to Wang Anjun, who had been leading them by far.

Yet for someone like Wang Anjun, Man Long would never have imagined that Wang Anjun was merely a nominal disciple who had stayed with their master for just a few days. This brief stay had caused such a dramatic transformation in him, with his average talent. Considering Lin Feng was the direct disciple, the implications were self-evident. Without a doubt, the four years that Lin Feng had disappeared must have been spent with their master. Given this, Lin Feng must be an incredibly formidable individual.
