The place where people from the Martial Arts Association gathered also could not be found.
"Isn't it quite normal not to see it?"
Mrs. Chen glanced at him, "There are so many people on the city wall, and it's dark. How could it be easy to see?"
"Yeah, Dad, actually, I saw you guys, but it was a bit far, and the atmosphere was tense, so I didn't go over to greet you."
Chen Fan smiled.
He wasn't lying.
Standing on the city wall, he had an unobstructed view of both inside and outside the city.
However, Chen Guodong and the others, even though he was standing in the most conspicuous place, could not recognize him.
Nonetheless, he did not intend to reveal his other identity. There was no need for that, and it might cause them trouble.
"I see."
Chen Guodong did not suspect anything.
He thought to himself, I really overthought it. How could Chairman Li be Chen Fan? Fortunately, when Liu Yong asked, I didn't tell the truth. Otherwise, I would have been laughed at.
"Dad, I heard from my older brother that the fierce beasts attacking our Anshan City this time numbered over a million, right? Among them, there were two Beast King-level fierce beasts? One was over thirty meters long, and the other was over fifty meters long with three snake heads. Is that true?"
Chen Chen's eyes lit up, and he was very excited.
Upon hearing that, Mrs. Chen's eyes were filled with deep worry.
If Chen Fan hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known how dangerous it was this time!
A giant snake over thirty meters long, if it reared up, wouldn't it be as high as the city wall?
And a fifty-plus-meter giant snake with three heads?
What kind of monster is that? If it were her standing on the city wall, she would probably faint at the first sight of it.
"Yes."
Chen Guodong glanced at Chen Fan and nodded, "Those were two Beast King-level fierce beasts. I heard the one with three heads was a High-level Beast King. Even more powerful would be the Top-level Beast King and the Three-headed Beast Emperor level fierce beasts."
"So powerful!"
Chen Chen's mouth fell open.
He had long known about the existence of Beast Emperor level fierce beasts, so he understood how formidable the Three-headed Snake King was.
"So what if it's powerful?"
Chen Guodong smiled slightly, "The first Beast King that appeared turned to run when it realized it was no match. But Chairman Li easily killed it. Later, the Three-headed Snake King appeared, very imposing, even killing a Commander-level fierce beast that tried to retreat. But in the end, it also tried to flee when it discovered it was no match."
"Did it escape?" Chen Chen suddenly tensed up.
"Of course, it didn't get away."
Chen Guodong laughed, "Chairman Li is no pushover. He jumped directly from the city wall and obliterated the Three-headed Snake King into powder amid the fierce beasts. Then, he killed all the remaining fierce beasts around. That's how the crisis in Anshan City was resolved. Otherwise, do you think we could have returned so quickly?"
"Wow, Chairman Li is so strong!"
Chen Chen's eyes were filled with admiration, "When I grow up, I want to be like him."
"Didn't you say you wanted to be like your brother?" Chen Fan pretended to be hurt.
"Well, this, this..."
Chen Chen suddenly didn't know what to say.
Usually, he did look up to Chen Fan.
But this time, hearing about Chairman Li's feats, he was even more in awe.
"Alright, just kidding."
Chen Fan reached out and patted his head, "Aiming to be like Chairman Li is good too. Keep it up, little man."
"Yes!"
Chen Chen nodded repeatedly, then said, "Brother, I believe you'll surpass Chairman Li in the future."
Hearing this, the three of them laughed.
"You cheeky kid, you do have some smarts." Chen Fan ruffled his hair again.
He thought to himself, could it be possible that these two people are the same?
After chatting a bit more, Mrs. Chen and Chen Chen went back to their rooms to rest, leaving only Chen Guodong and Chen Fan in the living room.
"Xiaofan," Chen Guodong looked at Chen Fan, full of concern, "Have you been having a tough time lately?"
"Not too bad," Chen Fan smiled, "What's up, Dad? Why bring this up suddenly?"
"No reason."
Chen Guodong shook his head, "I just have a feeling you've been tired. Unfortunately, I don't have much ability to help you. If there's anything I can do for you now, just let me know."
"I'm fine, Dad. Don't worry about me."
Chen Fan picked up his teacup and took a sip of water.
To be honest, he was indeed a bit tired.
Not physically or mentally, since with his current abilities, he could stay active for days without sleep.
It was more of a weariness of the spirit.
After just dealing with the Song family, Anshan City was in crisis again. Although they successfully repelled the second beast tide, the third would soon come. As long as Anshan City wasn't destroyed, those fierce beasts would not give up.
At the same time, the Song family and the Revival Association were also ready to pounce.
Problems came one after another, seemingly without end. Anyone would struggle to handle it in the long run.
Of course, he couldn't tell his family any of this. It wouldn't help the situation, and it would only make them worry.
Fortunately, he wasn't alone. Elder Wang continued to support him.
"Alright, just take care of yourself."
Chen Guodong sighed inwardly.
He understood Chen Fan's state of mind at this moment.
Just like back at the Chen Family Stronghold, he carried the weight of the entire stronghold on his shoulders but still had to keep a smile on his face.
After chatting a bit longer, Chen Fan left the house.
He had many matters to attend to and not much time to spend with his family.
With the second beast tide over, the next step was to have Meng Xue foresee when the third one would happen and assess the fierce beasts' strength.
But since it was already dawn, it wouldn't be appropriate to visit her in the middle of the night. Additionally, he now had the ability to foresee the future, so there was no rush.
First, he should check on those underground flying centipedes.
While guarding the city, he had received a mental message from the leader of the flying centipedes. It said a thirty-plus-meter-long venomous snake had intruded underground, asking what to do.
Since the snake didn't originally appear underground and only showed up after they cleared out the fierce beasts, it was hard to determine its origin.
Without hesitation, Chen Fan instructed them to attack.
Those three Beast Kings were allied. Even if the snake hadn't gone underground, it would have eventually died in his hands.
Arriving underground, the few feasting flying centipedes immediately surrounded him enthusiastically, much like eager puppies.
Grateful and fawning thoughts filled Chen Fan's mind.
Truth be told, when they were first subdued in the Secret Realm, the centipedes were still unwilling to submit, but there was nothing they could do since their lives were in his hands.
Now, they had no complaints and even wished for things to happen sooner.
In the Secret Realm, although there was plenty of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, food was scarce. While the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were fine, they grew tired of them quickly. Besides, some of the treasures weren't to their taste.
But out here, things were different. These fierce beasts were not only delicious but also filled with energy. Having consumed so much, their wounds were nearly healed.
Especially the venomous snake they just ate; it was an incredible supplement, making them crave more.
This place was paradise!
